Syphoc Rilkel, also called Sy or Syph, is a smuggler turned Dark Jedi. He has turned his talents from smuggling goods, to assassination and lore, two items he has discovered an apt affinity for. Despite his love for these two very different schools of talent, he is also a fearsome warrior if challenged.

Character History

A Modest Beginning

Syphoc Rilkel was born to Xenon and Ira Rilkel in the year 12 BBY on the planet Coruscant. Why the couple were on Coruscant, is to this day unconfirmed, but Xenon would tell and older Syphoc that they were discussing a “business proposition”. Ira Rilkel died in childbirth, leaving here baby boy to grow up with his father.

Years later, in a meditation exercise for his Trials of the Sun, Syphoc would look back on his life. At the moment of his mother’s death, he could see a look of relief on his fathers face, something that makes his blood boil.

In 11 BBY, a year after Syphoc’s birth, Xenon took him and together, the Rilkels left Coruscant for Corellia. Corellia was the planet where the Rilkel line had been established, so to this day Syphoc considers it his homeworld.

On Corellia, Xenon bought a small apartment in Coronet City, the jeweled capital of the Corellian System. He insisted that Syphoc become a nearly independent child, making sure that he knew how to get to and from school and what to do when he got home. The reason for this, Xenon said, was to protect Syphoc from the Empire should something ever happen to him.

For the next eleven years, the Rilkels lived in relative peace on Corellia.


A World Upended

In the year 0 ABY, Xenon’s fears came to fruition, as Syphoc came to discover when he arrived home one day. He found the apartment in ruins, and Xenon missing; following his father’s thoughts and hatred, Syphoc pointed the finger of blame at the Imperials and left the scene.

Years later, in a meditation exercise for his Trials of the Sword, Syphoc would look back on this moment and have a Force Revelation. He would discover that his father had left a holo-recorder in his desk. Syphoc found and watched it, and discovered that his father had been a Rebel agent who had become a terrorist in the Imperial Capital of Coruscant.

Suspecting that the Imperials were going to be looking for him, Xenon’s heir, Syphoc fled Coronet and hid in Tyrena, Corellia. Here, he lived as a beggar and robber on the streets, for two years, avoiding the Imperial Storm Trooper patrols as much as possible.


Meeting of the Minds

In Tyrena, Syphoc became friends with a Human female, Karol. Eventually, the two of them brought together seven humanoids in all and they stole a CR90 Corellian Corvette from the Tyrena Starport. They flew to Tatooine where they became an established smuggling crew.

Several years later, in 5 ABY, they had completely modified the CR90 Corvette, rechristening it as the Alpha Centauri. I had hidden smuggling compartments for the few times the Imperials managed to catch them, as well as highly illegal, very powerful cannons.

The team had accepted a job from an unknown client, who they suspected was a Rebel operative; they were to deliver two tons of bacta to Naboo where they would hand it over to the operative, receive their payment and be on their way. They arrived on Naboo and were paid for their services, but the Imperial Storm Troopers found the operative, killing him on sight. The team of smugglers left the surface with the two tons of bacta on board, millions of credits richer than we had been setting down on the surface.

On our way back to Tatooine, an Imperial Star Destroyer materialized from hyperspace in front of the Alpha Centauri and ordered them to return to the planet. In a race to get to the jump point before being destroyed by the Star Destroyer, the team turned from ecstatic at having made so much money to terrified at the prospect of dying. They won the race however, and left the system heading for Tatooine.

Fleeing from Fate

Fate did not remain on their sides for long, for they soon received another job for the same merchandise, again from the Rebellion. The team left Tatooine, slightly heartened at having received another job so fast.

Their relief did not remain for long, for as soon as they materialized into the Dantooine system, they noted the three Star Destroyers blockading the planet. The Alpha Centauri has little chance of survival, so Syphoc decides to abandon his friends and comrades, and save his own skin. Thus he began to walk the dark path and accept his destiny.

During the battle, after he had decided to flee and save only himself, he became attuned to the Force, sensing the deaths of his comrades. He plugged coordinates that the force whispered to him into the nav-computer of the only hyperspace capable escape pod on the ship and proceeded to launch it. He was on a direct course to the Antei system, where his entire life would change.
