In a universe populated by the Private Security Agencies and the Renegades, there once was young woman who defied the odds and brought herself up from nothing. Ominari was such a woman. While attempting to flee from invaders, their home on the Emporian IV Outpost, was ravaged. Having no refuge, Ominari’s family was quickly hunted down and captured. Only a child at the time, Ominari, hid from their captors and snuck into the detention facility, using her small stature as a way to stealth in. When she found her family, they were already dead.
In her rage, she killed two guards, using knives she lifted from their belts, and released many of the other prisoners. Several of them made it into the tree covering and remained in hiding for years. They became a small family, but it wasn’t enough for Ominari. No one could replace her family, nor staunch her taste for vengeance.
In her twenties, she’d begun sabotaging outposts of the opposition and eventually became a resistance leader. In the end, the resistance failed, but that didn’t deter her from pressing her vengeance as far as it could go. This led to her rising up the ranks of the underworld, until she became matriarch. Now, years later, most jobs get approved through Ominari and she takes her cut. For those who ignore her power and influence there will be hell to pay.
As an orphan herself, she began taking on proteges who had been scarred by similar tragic pasts. She trained these boys and girls in the ways of the underworld and fitted them with ships when they became of age. Loyalty remains Ominari’s most valuable commodity and she has it in these proteges, who have become some of the most deadliest in the galaxy. Quinn is one of these Renegades and represents the future of the criminal shade of the galaxy.
This convention will mark the retirement of an icon. This will be her final appearance at any further conventions in the future. To celebrate this event, a final show is scheduled for May 1-3 of 2020. There are tons of celebrities joining Nichelle and celebrating her career.
This campaign will also include some great Nichelle merchandise. These items will only be available through Kickstarter and during the Farewell Show, however, they are being discounted against their convention prices. So don’t delay, this campaign will last only two weeks.
