&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ike Danakar&#039;&#039;&#039; is the navigational officer of the [[BAC Darkest Night]]. Although once a young vibrant pilot, Ike is now an older man, who has seen his fair share of the galaxy. He served in the Imperial Navy before ending up on [[Arconae Primus]] where he joined the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Ike Danakar spent most of his early life travelling around the Galaxy on his parent&#039;s transport. Life in the cold reaches of space didn’t bother him; he liked looking out the windows at the stars and planets that he passed. Even as a child, he loved exploring new places and seeing new things. Every planet the transport stopped off at was another adventure from him. He would hear stories of wonderful things driving forward his thrust for the unknown. When the ship was in space, he spent days on end trawling over star maps and system maps until he could name a vast majority of them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When he hit eighteen, Ike left his parents on Coruscant. After watching their transport leave from the spaceport, he set out to make a new life for himself. He worked privately as a guide taking rich travelers to their destinations. As Ike earned more money, he began to look into buying his own transport. However, he was given a better offer. When a mysterious person paid for his services, he told Ike that he had a talent and it shouldn’t go to waste. With the money he saved, Ike signed up with the Imperial Navy under the Intelligence Core. Danakar showed a knowledge of systems and planets that surpassed a great deal of his peers which gave him a natural advantage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Back to Work  ===&lt;br /&gt;
When he reached the rank of Navigation Officer, Ike Danakar was in his thirties. With the disbanding of the Imperial Navy, he turned back to the thing that he knew best. He reopened his small business and once again began saving the money for his own transport ship. After a few years passed, Ike bought his transport. While he ferrying a strange couple to the Dajorra system to a planet called &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Primus, he learned of the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]], he looked into them, putting his name forward to sign up. He knew that due to his time outside of the Imperial Navy that the chances of him being accepted were low but he still hoped for the best. But due to his amazing knowledge of planets and systems he was accepted almost as soon as he signed up. He was sent to serve aboard the [[BAC Darkest Night]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Profile  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Appearance  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Ike Danakar is a scruffy man of a medium build and height, his greying hair and rough face are a monument to the hard life that he has led. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Personality  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Ike Danakar is a witty and intelligent man, normally the first person to make some form of remark. Due to the time that he has spent alone he comes across as coarse, giving people the distinct feeling that he is a little rough around the edges. Ike has seen many things and is always on hand with some story or tale he picked up from his travels.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Michael Corso&#039;&#039;&#039; is the Commanding Officer of the [[W/GSP Broken Blade]]. He was raised on [[starwars:tatooine| Tatoooine]] by [[starwars: Tusken Raiders| Tusken Raiders]]. He made his name in the Galactic Civil War and eventually was recruited into the Arconan Navy by a Zabrak named Ghent. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Character History ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Michael Corso was a mercenary and Rebel soldier who gained his initial fame during the [[starwars:Galactic Civil War|Galactic Civil War]].&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Michael was born on Telos IV but was marooned on Tatooine as a small child. There he was raised by Tusken Raiders. After expressing wishes to see the universe unfolding around him he was banished from his tribe and spent time traveling across the desert world. Michael witnessed the cruelty of the Galactic Empire firsthand and decided to join the Rebel Alliance, which he would ultimately leave after suffering the loss of his many good friends.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Born one year after the formation of the Empire on the planet of Telos, Michael enjoyed a simple life with his parents and brother, Dante. Both brothers excelled in their early education; Michael could speak Galactic Basic with clarity at the age of four. These were the first inklings of the true talent of the boy. Neither Michael nor his brother knew much about their parents, for tragedy struck early for them. In 13 BBY, the starship carrying the Corso family was attacked by an Imperial Star Destroyer over the planet of Tatooine. The brothers were sent in separate escape pods to better their chances of survival. Dante&#039;s pod landed in the outskirts of the city of Bestine and Michael&#039;s landed in the Jundland Wastes.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after the crash, Michael was picked up by a Tusken Raider tribe. For ten years he learned to become one of them and became a member of the tribe. At the age of fifteen, Michael completed his rite of passage and officially became a Raider. Because of the time spent with the Tuskens, he developed a certain veracity and untamed wildness in him which would sometimes lead to altercations later in life. However, this style of living was not for him. Michael knew there was an entire galaxy around him, and he wished to be a part of it. Of course, this did not bode well with his tribal elders. The ensuing debate earned Michael banishment from the tribe. Several years before the Battle of Yavin, Michael took his pet bantha and set out for Mos Eisley.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Seeds of Rebellion ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The injustices of the Empire were not difficult to spot on the backwater desert world. During his travels through the Dune Sea, Michael encountered moisture farmers spending nearly all they earned on Imperial taxes. In the cities, especially Mos Eisley, stormtroopers would arrest random street urchins or non-Humans and execute them without being accused or tried of any crime. It was in Mos Eisley that Michael decided to start his war against the Empire, and his first step in doing so was doing odd jobs for Jabba the Hutt. Though not all of the work was benevolent in nature, much of the work he offered Michael stopped up the plumbing of Imperial operations. Though after the Battle of Yavin, the Empire cracked down more on underground operations and Jabba could no longer offer jobs with Imperial targets, so Michael went right to the source.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Michael entered Anchorhead and met several members of the Rebel Alliance who officially inducted him into their ranks. Working missions for the Alliance was Michael&#039;s calling. He felt anything he could do that would undermine the Empire was worth a try. He participated in several minor skirmishes and events during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. He also became very proficient in piloting, and took great pride in his skills. He became most well known for his proficiency and knowledge of all manner of weapons, especially those more readily available to the Alliance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== New Republic Army ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Michael joined the 44th &amp;quot;New Republic Army&amp;quot; Corps on Dantooine shortly after joining the Rebellion. Under the command of an enigmatic colonel by the nickname of Undertaker, the NRA as they came to be called employed indirect combat skills. Michael learned to hunt and train creatures long before adorning his Rebel uniform and spent months in training under his veteran superiors. He befriended many in the group, including a fellow soldier named Carlos. After six months with the NRA, Michael was finally sent out to become a Rebel pilot for the NRA&#039;s standing fighter squadron. He graduated from Alliance flight school fourth in his class with a rank of Lieutenant. From then on he remained running supply missions for the 44th Corps and hit and run skirmishes. His fellow soldiers teased him endlessly about him not engaging Imperials on the ground, but could never compete with him in space and he quickly rose through the ranks to Commander. During R&amp;amp;R, Michael would go hunting with Carlos and Undertaker on Dantooine. For once he felt that he belonged somewhere. Of course, all of it would come to an end.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
In 1 ABY, Michael was conducting a surprise attack on Imperial Tibanna gas platforms when he received the news about his friends. The Empire had intercepted a transmission revealing the location of several Rebel bases, one being the city that housed the New Republic Army&#039;s base of operations. Two Imperial Star Destroyers struck the base from orbit, leveling the city around it and killing thousands of innocent civilians along with the majority of the New Republic Army. The handful of survivors, including Michael, were all offworld at the time. Of that group, Carlos was the only one of Michael&#039;s friends to survive the attack. With Undertaker missing in action and their home base decimated, the remainder of the New Republic Army was ordered by Alliance High Command to the wild planet of Talus. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Regulators ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Michael and the surviving members of the 44th Corps spent several months on mandatory leave on Talus. Survivor&#039;s guilt was a burden on them all, and relaxing did not come easy. Before they reentered service, three of Michael&#039;s fellow soldiers committed suicide. Being out of battle made him twitchy and uneasy. The loss of so many friends and the deaths of the innocents tainted him. During his time on leave, he got acquainted with his new surroundings and began hunting again to ease his mind. It was months before he was certified &amp;quot;fit for duty&amp;quot; again.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Upon returning to active duty, Michael was assigned to the 4th &amp;quot;Regulator&amp;quot; Division of the Alliance Special Forces under Generals Nathanos and Crowspenis. Before his first week, they saw enough promise in him to be commissioned as a SpecForce Field Commander at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. The small group tactical focus allowed him to get to know his fellow men and his superiors well. Most of Michael&#039;s work was concentrated in the Outer Rim, performing surgical strikes on Imperial garrisons. During this time he unknowingly met his own brother in battle. It is also known during this period that Michael served as a Senator in a makeshift Senate based in Corellia between many of the factional houses in an attempt to keep many conflicts diplomatic situations. Though he was not the original choice to represent the Regulators, he was seen as an exemplary politician at the Senate floor, and was quickly asked to help his division in representing their home planet of Dantooine.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
But like the New Republic Army before them, it was not long before the Regulators fell in battle as well. The entire Corps was involved in a major operation evacuating Alliance sympathizers and civilians from the war-torn moon of Rori. Michael was in charge of a team overseeing transport from Naboo off-world to the Outer Rim when Imperial troops landed in the outskirts of Theed. In order to save the civilians, Corso and his men would have to fight a pitched battle to hold just enough ground for the evacuation to complete. By nightfall, the unit suffered more than sixty percent casualties, and there were still ships to be sent off. Michael ordered a retreat to the ships, but had the alleyways and buildings on the way booby trapped to cut down on the quickly advancing stormtroopers. One last firefight ensued outside of the starport before being extracted.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Twelve men including himself made it off the planet of the original compliment of three hundred that were dropped. The young colonel had three broken ribs, burns on his torso, and a torn up leg from a thermal detonator. Once he was properly taken care of, he learned that the rest of the Corps had been annihilated in in the energy explosion during the Battle of Restuss. Yet again orphaned by the atrocities of the Empire, Michael resigned his commission shortly after being rehabilitated. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Return to Tatooine ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the massacre at the hands of the Imperials, Michael retreated back to Tatooine and became a regular patron at the Mos Eisley Cantina. He had had his share of the war and the broader picture and sought to avenge his fallen comrades. He wasn&#039;t out to help the Rebel cause anymore, but to slaughter Imperials on his own accord. He earned a reputation as a skilled hunter and a drunkard, drowning his sorrows in Vasarian Brandy. This did not exclude him from good-will work however, as he would readily aide any good-natured person who solicited his help. Michael Corso became a relatively familiar name in the Mos Eisley area when he returned to working for Jabba the Hutt, but for far less heroic work. Though he refused to take the more heartless deeds, he willingly performed unmentionable acts to punish enemies of Jabba whom Michael personally deemed had it coming...and was compensated greatly for it.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
This trend continued on for the better part of a year, to the point where his appearance in the cantina and on the sands was a staple of the desert ambiance. Most knew of his connections with Jabba and his friendship with Wuher the bartender, but his distant past was hidden from all but a privileged few. Nader Corso met his younger half-brother during this time when they were both assigned the same bounty. The pair worked together to take the mark out and learned of their common heritage shortly thereafter. Nader became involved in the Rebellion after hearing some of Michael&#039;s stories and tried to persuade him to re-join to no avail. Michael remained extremely bitter about his experiences as a soldier and vowed to stay out of the conflict. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Cantina Incident ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was only a matter of time before Michael was going to get into more trouble than he bargained for. Roughly a year after leaving the Rebellion, he was sipping his favorite vintage of vasarian brandy when questioned by then-officer candidate Jan Alexi. With a sandstorm raging outside, Michael had no choice but to play into the Imperial&#039;s hand and hope that nothing went horribly wrong. Unfortunately, a Zabrak temp musician for the band playing in the cantina started a fight, and Alexi took measures to arrest them. He tried to make a quick exit but was halted by the Imperial, leading to a standoff of sorts. He touted his relation to his brother, who was a colonel at the time serving in Bestine, and promised to wait for the storm to blow over and Imperials to arrive.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
While Jan did not know who Michael was at the time, she was eager to have him detained and interrogated. His capture would have meant her promotion to a full Lieutenant. Knowing full well what would happen in the event of his incarceration, Michael broke his promise and started a gunfight with the aid of another mercenary by the name of Ghent. Inexplicably, the Zabrak temp aided the Imperial and the four of them were forced into a close-range firefight. The mercenary pair had managed to inflict some damage and hide behind the bar before the end of the storm, but both had been injured and wouldn&#039;t last much longer. Both tried to pull for a truce but the Imperial would have none of it. She would not stop until she had both of them either dead or in her custody. Thankfully Michael&#039;s knowledge of the cantina&#039;s floorplan allowed them to escape through a trap door and make it out of the cantina just as Imperial reinforcements arrived.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Ghent took Michael to a local medical facility via his speeder and the two recuperated together becoming friends along the way. Ghent decided to take more jobs for the Rebels and Michael learned that while he had survived the encounter, he was much further off his game than he once was during his soldier days. It was obvious the Imperials wouldn&#039;t be taking a break from enslaving the Galaxy; he thought it irresponsible in retrospect to abandon his duty to prevent it. Once he was fully healed he placed Spike in the care of Nader and accepted an offer proposed by his new friend.&lt;br /&gt;
Ghent had been an intel agent for Clan Arcona of the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]. He had been scouting Michael Corso after learning of his experience and natural talent. With this in mind, he decided to work him in the cantina. Upon seeing his skills and resourcefulness first hand, he made the offer for the man to join [[Clan Arcona|Clan Arcona&#039;s]] navy as a weapons officer. Corso accepted the offer from his friend, seeing his opportunity to try something new.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Quote|Your lies are unbecoming. I’m gonna be honest with you. I don’t know who gave you the right to live, but they should be ashamed of themselves.|Cole to a deserter}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raymin Cole&#039;&#039;&#039; is the current Division V Commander. He is known as a harsh and ruthless military officer who will do whatever it takes to accomplish his mission. He we born to a military family on [[Eldar]] and attended the officer academy on [[Selen]]. He started his military career in the 9th Skirmishing Infantry Brigade and worked his way up to his current position. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raymin Cole&#039;&#039;&#039; was born as an only child, with a mother in the military and a poor father who worked in a munitions factory. He wanted to grow up to be like his mother, for he admired her work. When the Arconans came, she left the military, disgruntled with the perceived “tyrants”. She got a job at the munitions factory with her husband, making a meager earning but enough to support themselves and their son, between the two of them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cole never abandoned his dream of going into the military, and when he turned sixteen he went into the officer’s academy on Selen. He excelled at leadership, but did not make many friends at the academy. He was cold and ruthless, and very harsh on his subordinates, but he was a brilliant officer. On his nineteenth birthday he graduated, and was sent back to Eldar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Days in the 9th  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Raymin was placed in the 9th Skirmishing Infantry Brigade, working as a support officer. This was [[starwars:18 ABY|18 ABY]], and he served as a support officer for four years. In 22 ABY he was made Assistant Brigade Commander, but only served as such for one year. In 23 ABY he was made Brigade [[starwars:Commander|Commander]] of the 9th, and crafted the infantry troops into the most disciplined unit on [[Eldar]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 25 ABY he was promoted to assistant Division Commander, where he helped take charge of the Division and implement some of the same disciplinary policies he had become known for in the 9th. His work as an assistant did not go unnoticed, leading to his promotion in 27 ABY, shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Division Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
When the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] came, the discipline of Division Commander Cole paid off. Division V suffered less casualties than any other division in the ground forces, although they were not regarded as having the most defensive impact. Cole was harsh on deserters, and his men followed him loyally, even if they did not actually like him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the conquerors were overwhelming. When [[Arcona]] was forced to abandon the [[Dajorra System]], there was not enough room on the fleet to evacuate all the men and women of the Division. So, Raymin Cole made preparations to unite the forces that would be remaining behind in a resistance movement against the Yuuzhan Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the next two years, they would carry out raids and attacks on the Yuuzhan Vong, slowing their Vongforming efforts and other surface scarring on Eldar. Cole did not take over the leadership of the resistance movement, but he drilled the soldiers constantly, disciplining them and punishing the deserters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Personality  ==&lt;br /&gt;
Raymin Cole was known through the armed forces of Clan Arcona as the most harsh, the cold blooded bastard and ruthless officer that did not care how many spirits were crushed on the way to creating a perfect military machine. He was useful to the [[Clan]] for this reason, but was not a well-loved man by any means.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Keye Bixa-Loca&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[starwars:Chiss|Chiss]] Tactical Analyst station aboard the [[BAC Darkest Night]]. Born on [[starwars:Csilla|Csilla]] in the year 0 ABY, Keye left his homeworld at the age of 16 to join the Imperial Navy. He left the Imperial Remnant at the age of 28, and soon found himself in the [[Dajorra System]] where he joined the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Growing up  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Keye Bixa-Loca&#039;&#039;&#039; was born on [[starwars:Csilla|Csilla]], in the city of [[starwars:Ac’siel|Ac&#039;siel]]. His parents were merchants keeping alive a business that had been passed through their family. Keye looked upon this future that his parents had laid out for him as boring and mundane. He wanted more excitement then simply being a merchant. At the age of 16, he decided to join the Imperial Navy, much to the dismay of his parents. Keye left Ac’siel and made his way towards [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]] to begin his training at the Combat Academy. He studied hard and quickly caught the attention of his instructors due to his skill as a Tactician Officer. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He worked hard in order to earn a place in the Tactical Division of the Imperial Remnant. Keye spent the next few years serving on different ships and climbing his way up the ranks. By the time he was 28 he was well on his way to reaching Tactical Analyst in the Imperial Remnant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Coming to the AEF  ===&lt;br /&gt;
While Keye was on active service he had a long time to think about his life, he looked at himself and grew disillusioned with he time serving and made a drastic decision, when his tour was over he handed in his resignation. He had heard people talking of the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]] while working privately, so he took a transport to  [[Arconae Primus|&#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Primus]] om the Dajorra system. They accepted him with open arms and a station on the [[BAC Darkest Night]] under the Quaestor. As the ship changed hands, he stayed at his post loyal to each new Quaestor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Physical Profile  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Appearance  ===&lt;br /&gt;
As a Chiss, his Azure skin and deep red eyes make him stand out from the crowd. Keye Bixa-Loca is tall like most of his race, with a head full of thick black hair. He has a thin face and well built form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Personality  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Keye can come across as cold and short but due to his dedicated mind he will do anything that he needs to succeed. His brain will constantly analyze the situation that he is in, giving him an advantage. He is a withdrawn character, preferring to keep to himself.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Quote|I’m daddy’s little girl. My job? Killing the daddies of our future enemies.|Melissa to Raymin Cole}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Melissa Baracetti&#039;&#039;&#039; is a military brat who&#039;s family came to the [[Dajorra System]] when the Brotherhood split from the Emperor&#039;s Hammer. At the age of 16, Melissa was sent to the Officer&#039;s Academy on [[Selen]]. Upon graduating the academy, she served as the assistant to the 6th Light Infantry Brigade Commander. Three years later she was promoted to Brigade Commander. During the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invasion, she was promoted to VI Division Commander. She was left behind when the fleet retreated, and became a leader of the resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Melissa Baracetti&#039;&#039;&#039; was born on a ship of the Emperor’s Hammer, both of her parents officers in the military. When the Brotherhood split from the Strike Force, Melissa’s parents followed the Arconan Fleet back to the Dajorra System. Melissa had the genes of a military commander in her, and her parents groomed her to grow up and become an officer in the Defense Fleet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she turned 16 in 22 ABY, she was sent to the officer’s academy on [[Selen]]. She attended for three years, graduating like most other officers at the age of nineteen. Melissa was sent home, where her mother had recently retired from the military due to head trauma, and was living off her pension. Melissa’s father was serving as commanding officer of the [[INT Creeping Darkness]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  6th Light Infantry Brigade  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Melissa joined the 6th Light Infantry Brigade, serving as Assistant to the Brigade Commander. It became apparent that her father had pulled some strings to get her such a distinguished position at such a young age, but Melissa proved capable of the new duties heaped on her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Three years of constant service as an assistant earned the young officer a promotion to Brigade Commander of the 6th, where she immediately began to revolutionize the tactics the brigade employed. Her superiors took notice, and she was considered to take over for the Division Commander when he retired.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Division Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded Dajorra, the 6th Brigade led the defensive charge for Division VI. Melissa Baracetti led her team well, and when the Division Commander hurriedly resigned, the Clan Summit decided that Melissa was ready for the opportunity. She took over command in the middle of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]], trying to defend her planet against the cruel invaders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the conquerors were overwhelming. When Arcona was forced to abandon the Dajorra System, there was not enough room on the fleet to evacuate all the men and women of the Division. Melissa was left behind, and she became one of the co-leaders of the resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the next two years, they would carry out raids and attacks on the Yuuzhan Vong, slowing their Vongforming efforts and other surface scarring on Eldar. Melissa matured as a leader, and became one of the symbols of hope for the Eldarian resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Personality  ==&lt;br /&gt;
Melissa Baracetti was a compassionate and fiery young woman, known to flirt with many older officers, but never settled down. She was good with the troops, and knew what she was doing in battle. Even so, she had her shortcomings, but with age and maturity her superiors expected those shortcomings to lessen if not disappear altogether.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Quote|It will never end. There will always be another.|Artemov musing to his father}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saliul Artemov is Human male from [[Arconae Secundus]]. He was sent to the officer academy on [[Selen]] at the age of 16. Upon his return to Arconae Secundus, he was made the Assistant Brigade Commander of the 16th, and later the IX Division Commander, which fell apart during the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invasion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Saliul Artemov was born on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, the only son of a rich businessman. His mother was a young girl when she gave birth to him, only sixteen herself. He showed natural military leadership ability at a young age, and his father had him shipped off to the officer’s academy on Selen at the age of 16. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Artemov made himself at home at the academy, and excelled from the beginning. His father spoiled him for his successes at the academy, which drove the young military officer to greater heights. He graduated at the age of 19 in [[starwars:23 ABY|23 ABY]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Assistant Brigade Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
In 23 ABY Artemov returned to his homeplanet of &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, where he was immediately placed as Assistant Brigade [[starwars:Commander|Commander]] of the 16th at his father’s urging. He showed what he had learned at the academy to the elderly Brigade Commander, and after that it was only a matter of time before his influential father forced the old man to step down and allow his son to take over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 24 ABY, the Brigade Commander stepped down, and Artemov was ushered in as the new officer. Artemov was a good officer, but not as outstanding as his father led the military and people of &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus to believe. He served as the Brigade Commander for two years, until 26 ABY.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Division Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
In 26 ABY, Artemov was promoted to Division Commander. Some muttered that his father had bribed the previous Division Commander with untold riches to get him to step down, but none on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus had the courage to speak it aloud. Artemov immediately took over Division IX and remade the unit into the garrison &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus needed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, when the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invaded in 27 ABY, the division fell apart. Saliul’s farther was killed in the initial invasion of [[Arconae Secundus|&#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus]], and Artemov was devastated. He did not abandon his duty to the division, and led them to the best of his ability. They were slaughtered, and when the fleet came to rescue them, Artemov was struggling to regain control of his life. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the months spent on the fleet, Artemov managed to get himself together and return to training his team, but he was a changed man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Personality  ==&lt;br /&gt;
Artemov lost his youthful stride after the devastation on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, and went on to lose his confidence and pride. He became remorseful and introverted, no longer the jolly and, at time, arrogant young man he had been.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Nicolai &amp;quot;Rod&amp;quot; Rodell&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[starwars:Human|Human]] Male [[starwars:Sith Marauder|Sith Marauder]]. Rod was born Nicolai Andre Rodell on the planet [[starwars:Almania|Almania]] in the year 18 ABY. He was a child during the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong War|Yuuzhan Vong War]], which skipped over his [[starwars:Outer Rim Territories|Outer Rim]] world. In the year 35 ABY he left his homeworld for [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]], where he enlisted in the [[starwars:Galactic Alliance Army|Galactic Alliance Army]]. He was recruited to the [[starwars:Galactic Alliance Special Forces|Galactic Alliance Special Forces]] and served with them during the [[starwars:Swarm War|Swarm War]]. It was during this time that he picked up the nickname &amp;quot;Rod&amp;quot; which he eventually adopted as his only name. He was injured during the [[starwars:Battle of Tenupe|Battle of Tenupe]] and later discharged from the service. Upon his discharge, he sought out the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]] and joined the [[Sith |Order of the Sith]]. After completion of his initiation at the [[Shadow Academy]], he was placed in [[House Qel-Droma]] of [[Clan Arcona]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Character History ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Early Life===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was born Nicolai Andre Rodell on the planet Almania in the year 18 ABY, not long after the [[starwars:Battle of Armania|Battle of Armania]]. Son of Joseph Rodell and Myra Rodell, he grew up in a middle class family. Unlike most children in this time frame, Nicolai did not have to experience the horrors of the Yuuzhan Vong War, as Almania was entirely skipped by this conflict. Instead, he grew up hearing stories of the feats of great heroes of the war, especially Luke Skywalker and his Jedi Knights. In the year 35 ABY, when Nicolai turned 17, he boarded a freighter to [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]] intent on enlisting in the Galactic Alliance Army and becoming a war hero like those he worshiped as a child. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Galactic Alliance Army===&lt;br /&gt;
When he arrived at Coruscant Nicolai quickly found a recruiting station. The recruiter noticed that he was young, in good shape, and desperately wanted to see combat. The recruiter talked Nicolai into going out for Special Forces, telling him he would see more combat there than anywhere else in the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. Nicolai agreed, and the next day was on a shuttle to basic training. &lt;br /&gt;
After a few months of rigorous training and slight brainwashing, Nicolai emerged a new man. He even went by a new name, Rod, short for Rodell. Rod was not the young naïve boy that Nicolai had been, he was now a trained killer who was ready to use his skills. He was in luck, because almost immediately after his training ended the Dark Nest Crisis turned fully into the Swarm War.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Swarm War===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was assigned to Battle Team Alpha, one of the most elite Special Forces teams in the GAA. Alpha team was attached to the Star Destroyer [[starwars:Megador|Megador]], the flagship of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. Rod saw combat at the battles of [[starwars:Battle of Nickle One|Nickle One]] and [[starwars:Battle of Sarm|Sarm]], but his life would forever change after the [[starwars:Battle of Tenupe|Battle of Tenupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Battle of Tenupe====&lt;br /&gt;
Megador arrived to the Battle on Tenupe while it was already underway. The original intent was to help the Chiss with the complete annihilation of the Killik Fleet. However, Luke Skywalker convinced Grand Admiral Paelleon to settle for taking the Admiral Akbar. Rod was disgusted by the weakness his childhood hero showed by shying away from an all-out massacre, and his opinion of the Jedi was forever changed. Battle Team Alpha was sent on a small shuttle to the planet’s surface to assist the Chiss ground units in their retreat. During the fighting on the ground, Rod was gravely injured by a stray grenade. His life was saved when his squad-mate Cassius tackled him and laid over his body, taking most of the impact and killing himself in the process. The rest of his team was able to drag him out and keep him alive, however his left foot was severely injured. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Discharge===&lt;br /&gt;
After his injury, Rod was sent back to Coruscant to recover. He underwent multiple reconstructive surgeries, by the end of which he had more metal than bone/flesh in his foot.  After his surgeries, he had to do daily physical therapy for months before he was able to walk without a limp and eventually run. By this time, the war was over, and the GADF had begun downsizing. Rod was medically discharged once his rehabilitation was complete. He received a large disability pension and spent the better part of the next year drinking it away. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Brotherhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime towards the end of 37 ABY Rod found himself bouncing from planet to planet along the Outer Rim, living off his pension and frequenting every cantina he could find. One day, he heard a group of young men talking at the other end of the bar about how they couldn’t wait to become Dark Jedi. Apparently they had applied to some brotherhood and were taking a shuttle to start their training first thing in the morning. In his inebriated state, Rod told them he would go with them. He awoke a few hours later on a shuttle to [[Lyspair]] with no idea what was in store for him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Shadow Academy===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod arrived at the Shadow Academy with no idea what to expect. He didn’t know anything about the force and had only heard rumors of the Sith. He did however have an edge over most of his fellow initiates in that he was able to endure physical and psychological punishment for long periods of time, a skill he developed in Basic and Special Forces Training. Rod spent his first few weeks regretting his decision to board the shuttle, feeling like he was back in the GADF. However, once the instructional portion of his training began everything changed. &lt;br /&gt;
Rod was like a sponge when it came to information. He couldn’t learn enough, and could be found every day after training in the library studying up on something he had heard about during his lessons that day. He spent a good amount of time studying the orders, and at the completion of his initiation training chose to join the [[Sith|Order of the Sith]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===House Qel-Droma===&lt;br /&gt;
After his initiation was complete, Rod was assigned to [[House Qel-Droma|House Qel-Droma]] of [[Clan Arcona]]. He quickly rose through the first few [[Journeyman]] ranks and with every passing day he grew fonder and fonder of his decision to join the Brotherhood. Shortly after being assigned to house Qel-Droma Rod reached the rank of Protector, at which point he was assigned a master. Rod’s master also happened to be the House Aedile, [[Turel Sorenn]].    &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Keye Bixa-Loca&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[starwars:Chiss|Chiss]] Tactical Analyst station aboard the [[BAC Darkest Night]]. Born on [[starwars:Csilla|Csilla]] in the year 0 ABY, Keye left his homeworld at the age of 16 to join the Imperial Navy. He left the Imperial Remnant at the age of 28, and soon found himself in the [[Dajorra System]] where he joined the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Growing up  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Keye Bixa-Loca&#039;&#039;&#039; was born on [[starwars:Csilla|Csilla]], in the city of [[starwars:Ac’siel|Ac&#039;siel]]. His parents were merchants keeping alive a business that had been passed through their family. Keye looked upon this future that his parents had laid out for him as boring and mundane. He wanted more excitement then simply being a merchant. At the age of 16, he decided to join the Imperial Navy, much to the dismay of his parents. Keye left Ac’siel and made his way towards [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]] to begin his training at the Combat Academy. He studied hard and quickly caught the attention of his instructors due to his skill as a Tactician Officer. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He worked hard in order to earn a place in the Tactical Division of the Imperial Remnant. Keye spent the next few years serving on different ships and climbing his way up the ranks. By the time he was 28 he was well on his way to reaching Tactical Analyst in the Imperial Remnant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Coming to the AEF  ===&lt;br /&gt;
While Keye was on active service he had a long time to think about his life, he looked at himself and grew disillusioned with he time serving and made a drastic decision, when his tour was over he handed in his resignation. He had heard people talking of the [[Arcona Expeditionary Force]] while working privately, so he took a transport to  [[Arconae Primus|&#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Primus]] om the Dajorra system. They accepted him with open arms and a station on the [[BAC Darkest Night]] under the Quaestor. As the ship changed hands, he stayed at his post loyal to each new Quaestor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Physical Profile  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Appearance  ===&lt;br /&gt;
As a Chiss, his Azure skin and deep red eyes make him stand out from the crowd. Keye Bixa-Loca is tall like most of his race, with a head full of thick black hair. He has a thin face and well built form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Personality  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Keye can come across as cold and short but due to his dedicated mind he will do anything that he needs to succeed. His brain will constantly analyze the situation that he is in, giving him an advantage. He is a withdrawn character, preferring to keep to himself.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Quote|I’m daddy’s little girl. My job? Killing the daddies of our future enemies.|Melissa to Raymin Cole}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Melissa Baracetti&#039;&#039;&#039; is a military brat who&#039;s family came to the [[Dajorra System]] when the Brotherhood split from the Emperor&#039;s Hammer. At the age of 16, Melissa was sent to the Officer&#039;s Academy on [[Selen]]. Upon graduating the academy, she served as the assistant to the 6th Light Infantry Brigade Commander. Three years later she was promoted to Brigade Commander. During the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invasion, she was promoted to VI Division Commander. She was left behind when the fleet retreated, and became a leader of the resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Melissa Baracetti&#039;&#039;&#039; was born on a ship of the Emperor’s Hammer, both of her parents officers in the military. When the Brotherhood split from the Strike Force, Melissa’s parents followed the Arconan Fleet back to the Dajorra System. Melissa had the genes of a military commander in her, and her parents groomed her to grow up and become an officer in the Defense Fleet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she turned 16 in 22 ABY, she was sent to the officer’s academy on [[Selen]]. She attended for three years, graduating like most other officers at the age of nineteen. Melissa was sent home, where her mother had recently retired from the military due to head trauma, and was living off her pension. Melissa’s father was serving as commanding officer of the [[INT Creeping Darkness]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  6th Light Infantry Brigade  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Melissa joined the 6th Light Infantry Brigade, serving as Assistant to the Brigade Commander. It became apparent that her father had pulled some strings to get her such a distinguished position at such a young age, but Melissa proved capable of the new duties heaped on her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Three years of constant service as an assistant earned the young officer a promotion to Brigade Commander of the 6th, where she immediately began to revolutionize the tactics the brigade employed. Her superiors took notice, and she was considered to take over for the Division Commander when he retired.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Division Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded Dajorra, the 6th Brigade led the defensive charge for Division VI. Melissa Baracetti led her team well, and when the Division Commander hurriedly resigned, the Clan Summit decided that Melissa was ready for the opportunity. She took over command in the middle of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]], trying to defend her planet against the cruel invaders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the conquerors were overwhelming. When Arcona was forced to abandon the Dajorra System, there was not enough room on the fleet to evacuate all the men and women of the Division. Melissa was left behind, and she became one of the co-leaders of the resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the next two years, they would carry out raids and attacks on the Yuuzhan Vong, slowing their Vongforming efforts and other surface scarring on Eldar. Melissa matured as a leader, and became one of the symbols of hope for the Eldarian resistance movement. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Personality  ==&lt;br /&gt;
Melissa Baracetti was a compassionate and fiery young woman, known to flirt with many older officers, but never settled down. She was good with the troops, and knew what she was doing in battle. Even so, she had her shortcomings, but with age and maturity her superiors expected those shortcomings to lessen if not disappear altogether.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Quote|It will never end. There will always be another.|Artemov musing to his father}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saliul Artemov is Human male from [[Arconae Secundus]]. He was sent to the officer academy on [[Selen]] at the age of 16. Upon his return to Arconae Secundus, he was made the Assistant Brigade Commander of the 16th, and later the IX Division Commander, which fell apart during the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invasion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/onlyinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==  Character History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
===  Early Life  ===&lt;br /&gt;
Saliul Artemov was born on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, the only son of a rich businessman. His mother was a young girl when she gave birth to him, only sixteen herself. He showed natural military leadership ability at a young age, and his father had him shipped off to the officer’s academy on Selen at the age of 16. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Artemov made himself at home at the academy, and excelled from the beginning. His father spoiled him for his successes at the academy, which drove the young military officer to greater heights. He graduated at the age of 19 in [[starwars:23 ABY|23 ABY]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Assistant Brigade Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
In 23 ABY Artemov returned to his homeplanet of &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, where he was immediately placed as Assistant Brigade [[starwars:Commander|Commander]] of the 16th at his father’s urging. He showed what he had learned at the academy to the elderly Brigade Commander, and after that it was only a matter of time before his influential father forced the old man to step down and allow his son to take over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 24 ABY, the Brigade Commander stepped down, and Artemov was ushered in as the new officer. Artemov was a good officer, but not as outstanding as his father led the military and people of &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus to believe. He served as the Brigade Commander for two years, until 26 ABY.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===  Division Commander  ===&lt;br /&gt;
In 26 ABY, Artemov was promoted to Division Commander. Some muttered that his father had bribed the previous Division Commander with untold riches to get him to step down, but none on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus had the courage to speak it aloud. Artemov immediately took over Division IX and remade the unit into the garrison &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus needed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, when the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] invaded in 27 ABY, the division fell apart. Saliul’s farther was killed in the initial invasion of [[Arconae Secundus|&#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus]], and Artemov was devastated. He did not abandon his duty to the division, and led them to the best of his ability. They were slaughtered, and when the fleet came to rescue them, Artemov was struggling to regain control of his life. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the months spent on the fleet, Artemov managed to get himself together and return to training his team, but he was a changed man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Personality  ==&lt;br /&gt;
Artemov lost his youthful stride after the devastation on &#039;&#039;&#039;Arconae&#039;&#039;&#039; Secundus, and went on to lose his confidence and pride. He became remorseful and introverted, no longer the jolly and, at time, arrogant young man he had been.&lt;br /&gt;

Rod is a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Human Human] Male [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith_Marauder Sith Marauder]. Rod was born Nicolai Andre Rodell on the planet [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Almania Almania] in the year 18 ABY. He was a child during the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Yuuzhan_Vong_War Yuuzhan Vong War], which skipped over his [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Outer_Rim_Territories Outer Rim] world. In the year 35 ABY he left his homeworld for [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Coruscant Coruscant], where he enlisted in the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Galactic_Alliance_Army Galactic Alliance Army]. He was recruited to the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Gallactic_Alliance_Special_Forces Galactic Alliance Special Forces] and served with them during the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Swarm_War Swarm War]. It was during this time that he picked up the nickname &amp;quot;Rod&amp;quot; which he eventually adopted as his only name. He was injured during the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Battle_of_Tenupe Battle of Tenupe] and later discharged from the service. Upon his discharge, he sought out the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood| Dark Jedi Brotherhood]] and joined the [[Sith | Order of the Sith]]. After completion of his initiation at the [[Shadow Academy|Shadow Academy]], he was placed in [[House Qel-Droma| House Qel-Droma]] of [[Clan Arcona| Clan Arcona]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Character History ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Early Life===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was born Nicolai Andre Rodell on the planet Almania in the year 18 ABY, not long after the Battle of Armania. Son of Joseph Rodell and Myra Rodell, he grew up in a middle class family. Unlike most children in this time frame, Nicolai did not have to experience the horrors of the Yuuzhan Vong War, as Almania was entirely skipped by this conflict. Instead, he grew up hearing stories of the feats of great heroes of the war, especially Luke Skywalker and his Jedi Knights. In the year 35 ABY, when Nicolai turned 17, he boarded a freighter to Coruscant intent on enlisting in the Galactic Alliance Army and becoming a hero like those he worshipped as a child. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Galactic Alliance Army===&lt;br /&gt;
When he arrived at Coruscant Nicolai quickly found a recruiting station. The recruiter noticed that he was young, in good shape, and desperately wanted to see combat. The recruiter talked Nicolai into going out for Special Forces, telling him he would see more combat there than anywhere else in the Galactic Alliance Military. Nicolai agreed, and the next day was on a shuttle to basic training. &lt;br /&gt;
After a few months of rigorous training and slight brainwashing, Nicolai emerged a new man. He even went by a new name, Rod, short for Rodell. Rod was not the young naïve boy that Nicolai had been, he was now a trained killer who was ready to use his skills. He was in luck, because almost immediately after his training ended the Dark Nest Crisis turned fully into the Swarm War.&lt;br /&gt;
===The Swarm War===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was assigned to Battle Team Alpha, one of the most elite Special Forces teams in the GAA. Alpha team was attached to the Star Destroyer Megador, the flagship of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. Rod saw combat at the battles of Nickle One and Sarm, but his life would forever change after the Battle of Tenupe.&lt;br /&gt;
====Battle of Tenupe====&lt;br /&gt;
Megador arrived to the Battle on Tenupe while it was already underway. The original intent was to help the Chiss with the complete annihilation of the Killik Fleet. However, Luke Skywalker convinced Grand Admiral Paelleon to settle for taking the Admiral Akbar. Rod was disgusted by the weakness his childhood hero showed by shying away from an all-out massacre, and his opinion of the Jedi was forever changed. Battle Team Alpha was sent on a small shuttle to the planet’s surface to assist the Chiss ground units in their retreat. During the fighting on the ground, Rod was gravely injured by a Killik warrior who took him by surprise. His team was able to drag him out and keep him alive, however his left foot was severely injured. &lt;br /&gt;
===Discharge===&lt;br /&gt;
After his injury, Rod was sent back to Coruscant to recover. He underwent multiple reconstructive surgeries, by the end of which he had more metal then bone and flesh in his foot.  After his surgeries, he had to do daily physical therapy for months before he was able to walk without a limp and eventually run. By this time, the war was over, and the GADF had begun downsizing. Rod was medically discharged once his rehabilitation was complete. He received a large disability pension and spent the better part of the next year drinking it away. &lt;br /&gt;
==The Brotherhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime towards the end of 37 ABY Rod found himself bouncing from planet to planet along the Outer Rim, living off his pension and frequenting every cantina he could find. One day, he heard a group of young men talking at the other end of the bar about how they couldn’t wait to become Dark Jedi. Apparently they had applied to some brotherhood and were taking a shuttle to start their training first thing in the morning. In his inebriated state, Rod told them he would go with them. He awoke a few hours later on a shuttle to Lyspair with no idea what was in store for him. &lt;br /&gt;
===Shadow Academy===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod arrived at the Shadow Academy with no idea what to expect. He didn’t know anything about the force and had only heard rumors of Jedi and Sith, but had little real experience with either. He did however have an edge over most of his fellow initiates in that he was able to endure physical and psychological punishment for long periods of time, a skill he developed in Basic and Special Forces Training. Rod spent his first few weeks regretting his decision to board the shuttle, he felt like he was back in the GADF. However, once the instructional portion of his training began everything changed. &lt;br /&gt;
Rod was like a sponge when it came to information. He couldn’t learn enough, and could be found every day after training in the library studying up on something he had heard about during training that day. He spent a good amount of time studying the orders, and at the completion of his initiation training chose to join the Order of the Sith.&lt;br /&gt;
===House Qel-Droma===&lt;br /&gt;
After his initiation was complete, Rod was assigned to house Qel-Droma of Clan Arcona. He quickly rose through the first few Journeyman ranks and with every passing day he grew fonder and fonder of his decision to join the Brotherhood. Shortly after being assigned to house Qel-Droma Rod reached the rank of Protector, at which point he was assigned a master. Rod’s master also happened to be the House Aedile, Turel Sorenn.             &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Character History ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Early Life===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was born Nicolai Andre Rodell on the planet Almania in the year 18 ABY, not long after the Battle of Armania. Son of Joseph Rodell and Myra Rodell, he grew up in a middle class family. Unlike most children in this time frame, Nicolai did not have to experience the horrors of the Yuuzhan Vong War, as Almania was entirely skipped by this conflict. Instead, he grew up hearing stories of the feats of great heroes of the war, especially Luke Skywalker and his Jedi Knights. In the year 35 ABY, when Nicolai turned 17, he boarded a freighter to Coruscant intent on enlisting in the Galactic Alliance Army and becoming a hero like those he worshipped as a child. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Galactic Alliance Army===&lt;br /&gt;
When he arrived at Coruscant Nicolai quickly found a recruiting station. The recruiter noticed that he was young, in good shape, and desperately wanted to see combat. The recruiter talked Nicolai into going out for Special Forces, telling him he would see more combat there than anywhere else in the Galactic Alliance Military. Nicolai agreed, and the next day was on a shuttle to basic training. &lt;br /&gt;
After a few months of rigorous training and slight brainwashing, Nicolai emerged a new man. He even went by a new name, Rod, short for Rodell. Rod was not the young naïve boy that Nicolai had been, he was now a trained killer who was ready to use his skills. He was in luck, because almost immediately after his training ended the Dark Nest Crisis turned fully into the Swarm War.&lt;br /&gt;
===The Swarm War===&lt;br /&gt;
Rod was assigned to Battle Team Alpha, one of the most elite Special Forces teams in the GAA. Alpha team was attached to the Star Destroyer Megador, the flagship of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. Rod saw combat at the battles of Nickle One and Sarm, but his life would forever change after the Battle of Tenupe.&lt;br /&gt;
====Battle of Tenupe====&lt;br /&gt;
Megador arrived to the Battle on Tenupe while it was already underway. The original intent was to help the Chiss with the complete annihilation of the Killik Fleet. However, Luke Skywalker convinced Grand Admiral Paelleon to settle for taking the Admiral Akbar. Rod was disgusted by the weakness his childhood hero showed by shying away from an all-out massacre, and his opinion of the Jedi was forever changed. Battle Team Alpha was sent on a small shuttle to the planet’s surface to assist the Chiss ground units in their retreat. During the fighting on the ground, Rod was gravely injured by a Killik warrior who took him by surprise. His team was able to drag him out and keep him alive, however his left foot was severely injured. &lt;br /&gt;
===Discharge===&lt;br /&gt;
After his injury, Rod was sent back to Coruscant to recover. He underwent multiple reconstructive surgeries, by the end of which he had more metal then bone and flesh in his foot.  After his surgeries, he had to do daily physical therapy for months before he was able to walk without a limp and eventually run. By this time, the war was over, and the GADF had begun downsizing. Rod was medically discharged once his rehabilitation was complete. He received a large disability pension and spent the better part of the next year drinking it away. &lt;br /&gt;
==The Brotherhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime towards the end of 37 ABY Rod found himself bouncing from planet to planet along the Outer Rim, living off his pension and frequenting every cantina he could find. One day, he heard a group of young men talking at the other end of the bar about how they couldn’t wait to become Dark Jedi. Apparently they had applied to some brotherhood and were taking a shuttle to start their training first thing in the morning. In his inebriated state, Rod told them he would go with them. He awoke a few hours later on a shuttle to Lyspair with no idea what was in store for him. &lt;br /&gt;

He did however have an edge over most of his fellow initiates in that he was able to endure physical and psychological punishment for long periods of time, a skill he developed in Basic and Special Forces Training.
