If there was a patron god for Han Solo, one of mischief and lies is likely to be the right one. He grew up in something of a den of thieves and being taught how to cheat and steal was complimentary among them, in a way. It meant they thought you had potential. Far worse things happened to the kids that got adopted that didn't have potential.

Skip ahead a few years, cunning young man that he was, it was only a matter of time before he escaped from there. The early twenties were spent trying to legitimize himself. He didn't succeed in that. Clearly. The man looks like something, but legitimate? No. Not that.

These days his work has him lying all the time. Lying on authorities, lying to his bosses, lying to people coming with work, lying about happened on the runs ... it goes on and on.

He's told enough of them in his lifetime that doing it with a straight face, usually isn't all that hard.

"So you ask what people see in this stuff and how does it help you?" There's always a way that magic benefits somebody as far as he's noticed.
