"I'm not a leader, okay? I'm a follower who follows my own path."
— Tryst Valentine[5]

Tryst is funny and charming, but not in the way he intends.

Official Background

Tryst spent much of his youth trying to be a cool guy.  He got involved with pirates and scum he deemed swank, and learned a bunch of standard thief stuff. Had the Mynock crew never met, he’d likely have never amounted to much more than a street tough.

These days, he’s incredibly invested in the crew’s success, and works constantly to sharpen his skills to those ends. As compared to when we first met him, he’s a very skilled pilot, marksman, and diplomat as well as a Class A pickpocket, gambler, and fast talker.

The most noteworthy difference really is that he’s no longer trying to be cool; he’s trying to keep his team alive. Now that he’s given up on being cool, he actually is sort of cool.

He’s also becoming the leader in a group of followers. Had a better leader been present earlier, he never would have stepped up, but now he’s the one figuring out next steps and drafting plans.

Biography

Tryst claims he was born at night and "it was a cool story."[6]

Trystan's family were slaves [7]. Trystan's parents and his three sisters and he all shared a modest two-bedroom home on Tatooine. Trystan did not have his own room; he slept on a futon and kept a secret box underneath it filled with what were valuables to his child's eye. Whenever he tried to grow his hair, his sisters would wait until he slept before shaving off his hair. They also could all beat the crap out of him. They locked their room so that he couldn't touch their stuff. All of Trystan's friends were in love with his three beautiful sisters. At least one of his sisters owned a pink floral kimono, which Jacinto Reth found and wore.[8] Tryst's mother, Antoinette Rose, worked at the cantina, helped sometimes by Dalliance. Tryst's family experience with slavery led him to pursue the feeling of freedom and gives this as an explanation for his spacefaring and reckless nature.[9]

Sometime between childhood and becoming a smuggler, Tryst worked as a Hiltron employee and apparently was never taken off of their rolls, retaining his benefit package.[10] Tryst states that 90% of the reason he became a smuggler was to eat candy in space.[11]

On Mandalore, Tryst becomes involves in the mechanisms of the Kaiburr Crystals, and plays the piano in concert for them. He reconnects with his sister, Christmas Valentine when she is undercover in the Cloud City Cavaliers on behalf of the Kaiburr Crystals. Christmas confronts him about not contacting his family in five years. Tryst later sends a letter with money to his mother on Tattooine.

On Phindar, Tryst goes by the codename Cinnamon Rex and seduces the bounty hunter Tubaik in order to con money from him. He reconnects with his sister, Rendezvous Valentine, and has a liason with Aava Arek. He additionally has a terrible date with Lavali Lithros. With Lyn, he takes a job from Jorj Car'das.

Physical Appearance

  • In episode Prologue One Tryst is described as handsome, manly and rugged with the promise of a mustache and rocking a goatee and ‘70s blown-back feathered-out hair. "It never goes out of style." Five years later in episode Prologue Four, Tryst has hairs of white showing in the goatee that he now has, described as "icing on the cake."[12] He still has the '70s waft hair.[13] In Episode One this it is further clarified as being shoulder-length and dirty blond.
  • Tryst has the build of an ex-quarterback and haggard eyes "like he has seen a lot."[14] He is 5'10" (178cm).

Tryst: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those are all very specific instance kimonos.[27]

Over the course of the series, Tryst is shown have a perchance for wearing short kimonos. The origin of this preference is not solidified in kanan. In Prologue Five, it is implied that Aava's kimono is the first that Tryst wears. Similarly, in Episode One Tryst is described as beginning to like wearing it.
