Personal History
Early Childhood
Blarex was born Han Framke in Coronet City, Corellia in 15 ABY to Jorn Framke and Mari Posilla. His father Jorn, a very proud Corellian patriot, named his son after his idol Han Solo. Jorn is descended from a long line of successful business owners on Corellia, their family wealth coming from the manufacture of coolant pumps to supply companies such as Corellian Engineering Corporation. As a child, Han was very close to his father's family, this is partly due to the fact that he would eventually inherit the family business. Han never saw or knew much of his mother's side of the family. Growing up, all Han was only aware that her family lived in the Outer Rim and that he'd get a birthday card from his grandfather each year with 100 credits.
File:CorellianBoy.jpgConfrontation at SchoolFor his tenth birthday, Han's father gave his son a top of the line new datapad. Although his mother thought this an extravagant gift to give to a ten year old, his father said as the heir to his business he had to start acting like a CEO. Instead of reading financial reports and stock tickers, the ten year old actually used this to read news of the war. Early the next year an older boy at Han's school stole the datapad after roughing him up. Han was both furious that the boy had stole from him but also afraid that his father would be angry that he let it out of his sight. Han decided not to tell anyone at school and tried to recover his stolen property on his own.
Han stalked the older child, first he found out from other students which hovertrain the boy took home and boarded the train unbeknownst to the other child. Han trailed his prey tactfully and got off at the same stop as the older child, once again without the other boy knowing. Once the other student went down an alleyway, Han saw his chance to strike. Young Framke attacked and broke the older boy's nose, left hand and fractured a rib. The fight was broken up by a random passerby and the man called CSF because he was afraid Han had actually killed the other boy. Jorn's political connections, a sizable payoff, and the fact that the other boy was still alive, got Han out of any major disciplinary action with the authorities. However, after this altercation his mother urged his father to enroll their son in formal fighting classes would teach him discipline and help him control his anger. Han was enrolled at a Dulon school that was near his families apartment.
Over the next three years, the young Corellian boy became somewhat of a local phenom in the martial arts scene, taking on two or three other students his level at a time. Han's Dulon instructor mentioned to his parents that it seemed that the boy was not just reacting to his opponents but actually preemptively countering their moves. He suggested that the boy may have some level of Force sensitivity. Again using the pull of the Framke name, his parents contacted the locally deployed Jedi in Coronet. His mother was very reluctant at first however she was overruled by her husband and his family, they decided that having a Jedi in the family could only further the influence of the Framke name.
The boy was taken to the local Jedi enclave in 28 ABY. The Jedi did determine that the boy did have enough force aptitude, although not above the average youngling, to warrant Jedi training. Unfortunately, Han failed all of the mental tests and was deemed too aggressive to be admitted to the Order. His Father pleaded with the Jedi, even offered a bribe, desperate to have his son and heir trained as a Jedi. The Jedi was disgusted at the attempt and demanded that the Framke's leave.
Adolescent Years
Han's Practice SwordHan's failure with the Jedi created a rift between the now teenage Corellian and his father. However, he became even closer to his mother during this time. She took a keen interest in his development as a martial artist and was present with her child at every event over the next three years. By 31 ABY, Han was dominating the local Dulon scene and the 16 year old was approached by a Kartranin instructor. The man, Jin-She, was person Han was familiar with. Jin-She was known to only teach students that he personally chose for his school, and charged no fee. When Han told his mother she immediatly commed Jin-She to officially accept the offer and offered a very large donation to his school. She then took Han out to purchase his first training sword, which she spared no expense on, much to the chagrin of his father. Jorn was still unimpressed with his son and saw Han's martial arts training consolation prize, he believed his son was living below his potential.
It was not long before Han again began excelling in his new chosen form as well. He quickly mastered the basics of Kartranin and by his first year of study was proficient in the same techniques as students that had been practicing for four or five years. Recognizing the raw potential in the young man, Han's master took him in as his primary pupil and taught him the rare art of Tu'rek. Merging this new form with his others, and his latent Force abilities, the young man was now unstoppable. He won every competition that he entered in 32 ABY by a wide margin. He even began to attract a small following of fans in Coronet, although his mother still was his biggest fan.
At this time, professional talent managers began taking notice of Han. Han's father, seeing an opportunity to restore some glory lost by the failure with the Jedi, took over the negotiations with all of these prospective managers. In the end Tranik Maltin of the Galactic City Sports Agency from Coruscant was selected by Jorn to represent his son. Han's was taken out of high school and given a personal tutor by his sports agency. The workouts he was now put through turned the toned but diminutive young man into a hulking mass of muscle. By the time Han reached age 18, and adulthood, he was ready for a shot at the big time.
Young Adulthood
File:CoronetCity.jpgCoronet the night of the fightTranik organized Han's fight in 33 ABY, with one of his other up-and-coming clients. Han's opponent was a Fondorian Jar'Kai artist Kopin Rewa. Both young men were extremely skilled in their chosen forms and had both been training for years. Tranik made both young men aware that the winner of the fight would receive the full support of the agency and the loser would be cast off. The venue of the fight was Han's home city of Coronet on Remembrance Day. The arena sold out in ten galactic standard hours, much of the city was eager to root on Han, who at this point had become a full-fledged local celebrity.
Han arrived at the arena much earlier than the crowds that afternoon to practice and talk strategy with his master Jin She. As he entered the arena and approached the ring the crowd was already roaring in anticipation. He saw his mother in the front row but his father was not sitting next to her, in his place was an older man that he had never seen before. As the fight began, he pushed all of this from his mind, convinced that he would need all of his oncentration to defeat his opponent. Han and the crowd were mistaken. The fight was over in two minutes, Han was able to disarm and defeat his opponent before the end of the first round. As the crowed stared in stunned silence, Han stood in the middle of the ring disappointed in the outcome. He was hoping that by moving onto the larger galactic circuits he would find opponents that would challenge him.
Han exited the arena as the crowd recovered and began cheering louder than ever for their hometown hero. His mother was waiting for him in the locker room, along with the strange man that was sitting next to her. She told Han that the man was Kitrum Posilla her father, his grandfather, and it was time he knew about the Posilla family. His grandfather told Han that the family descended from a long line of bounty hunter and mercenaries dating back thousands of years. He said that the family traces it's history back to a man knows as Blarex the Patriarch, a bounty hunter from an era of history known as the Cold War. This, coupled with his Force Sensitivity, was why he would never find a challenge in organized fighting. Fighting was in his blood, only in the life and death underworld would he truly ever find a challenge.
Kitrum revealed that the family had, for many generations, began to compile the family history. However, there were few records available concerning The Patriarch himself. Kitrum spent his entire life searching for these records between jobs and finally had a lead, but he could not follow it due to his deteriorating health. He urged young Han to forsake his safe lifestyle on Corellia and become the soldier of fortune that he was meant to be. Han accepted without thought, the life of a Corellian business owner was not for him, he needed the challenge of martial combat. His grandfather advised his grandson the lead he had was on Nal Hutta however the information was in the possession of a small-time Hutt crime boss name Kirga. Beyond that, he knew nothing else about the long lost information and the newly that this quest was now Han's to continue.
When Han arrived home, his father was overjoyed on the outcome. He had already been on the communicator with Tranik and Han's talent agency planning his next career moves. Han told his father he would not be continuing his martial arts career and was going to follow in the footsteps of his grandfather. Jorn was furious, he screamed that Han was throwing his life away by living in the underworld and perusing this meaningless ancient history. Jorn disowned his son and vowed to never speak with him again. As Han gathered up his few possessions he spoke with his mother. She informed him hat upon reaching 18, he was given a large stake in the family business, one which his father could not take away. She told him he would have to change his name, the Framke name would not be respected in the underbelly of the galaxy. Han told his mother he would take the name Blarex, after The Patriarch himself.
Kitrum transferred ownership of his old, but heavily modifiedVT-49 Decimator before Han left the planet. Han had never flow before in his life but Kitrum had installed very expensive droid brains that automated most of the functions and allowed the ship to be flown with only one crew member. His mother made sure her father was placed into hospice care at the finest hospital on Corellia. With the ship and the rest of the old bounty hunter's equipment Blarex began taking low-paying bounties to begin building up his credibility with prospective employers. He knew that his end result would be to eventually get close to Kirga the Hutt even if it took years of posturing.
Joining the Brotherhood
In 35 ABY, Blarex was still no closer to Kirga the Hutt and the information he possessed on The Patriarch. He had however amassed a small fortune between his mercenary work and bounty hunting. The galaxy was still reeling from the Yuuzhan Vong war and work was plentiful. One job would present the young man with an opportunity, one that he though he had missed ten years ago. While on the planet of Ord Mantell he accepted a bounty hunting job for what he was told was a Rogue Jedi. His contact, an unnamed Rodian told Blarex that they believed this Jedi went AWOL during the war and had been terrorizing the Mid Rim systems. Despite a 1,000,000 credit bounty, none had been able to complete the mission. Blarex saw this as an opportunity to truly test himself against a trained Jedi.

Traveling through the Mid Rim, Blarex followed the reports of the Rogue Jedi from planet to planet. Finally getting a firm lead on the planet Bothawui. Blarex tracked his prey to a local apartment building in a middle-class portion of town. As he began to slice the door security, it slid open. Standing in the doorway was a middle-aged human male dressed in a dark combat suit. He told Blarex to enter his apartment before one of the locals called law enforcement.
Inside, he introduced himself as Olm Jitrae and advised Blarex that he was not a Rogue Jedi. He revealed that he was a member of an organization known as the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and had actually placed the bounty on himself. He was hoping to lure Jedi into hunting him so that he could practice his abilities. However, he was pleasantly surprised that Blarex was able to find him. He sensed the Dark Side of the Force within the young Corellian and made him an offer. He would spare his life if he joined The Brotherhood.
Blarex immediately accepted seeing the chance to fully realize his potential. Olm organized a meeting between the young man and a recruiter for the Brotherhood and in late 35 ABY, Blarex was enrolled in the Shadow Academy.
