| Born on the planet [[starwars:Metellos|Metellos]], Torin grew up to a relatively poor, Imperial-supporting family. He lived what ultimately became a double life - studying hard in school to achieve good results for his parents' sakes and sneaking out more than once to fight in unsanctioned fighting circles in order to make a few extra credits for himself. He attended public schooling and achieved above average grades but came home often with scars and bruises, covering them up with the excuse that they lived in a 'bad neighborhood' and nothing could be done about it. During his late teens, Erollisi established a life goal during an encounter with a spaceship: to one day be the captain of a starship. His grades were good enough that he could at least apply for a military academy and he intended to keep them that way, even if he had more than one broken bone to show for his fighting efforts. | | Born on the planet [[starwars:Metellos|Metellos]], Torin grew up to a relatively poor, pro-Imperial family.

| When the [[Taldryan Expansionary Force|Taldryan military]] opened its doors in 22 ABY, Erollisi was approached by a Taldryan recruiter for his skills and promised a stellar career after some cross-training into the new military. He resigned his commission from the Imperial Remnant and signed on with the Taldryan Navy, bringing his expertise to the Brotherhood in order to further his career to heights that the Empire could no longer promise in its weakening state.

| In the aftermath of the Yuuzhan Vong War where Taldryan acquired a number of new warships, then-Lieutenant Commander Erollisi was given a shot at a ship command slot once again: this time at the helm of a DP-20 gunship: the ''Flamewind''. This slot was given due to his experience aboard Lancer-class ships, providing him useful knowledge in anti-starfighter combat and patrol protocols. Accepting the transfer out to a dedicated warship, he took the helm of the ship and fought in a number of engagements, rapidly earning his promotion to Commander and finally earning the notice of his peers.
