Son of legendary pirate Kaine Paulsen, Socorran Drake Paulsen—also called "Lom" by those close to him and "Chu'la" (Coynite for "cunning") by his Coynite friend Tra'Parr'Sratt—was himself a pirate and smuggler, which he had been doing since his father brought him along on a smuggling run at the age of five. He was Force-sensitive, but untrained in any way of the Force. He had brown hair, a deeply tanned skin, and blue eyes, and wore a large golden earring.
