There was little doubt what Vladet would be doing in his life, having been trained in the Imperial Military way of life from as long as he could walk. Having access to military flight simulators from age six, he quickly perfected his flying skills. The local Corellian Sector Police (CORSEC) unit even allowed Vladet to fly one of their Z-95 Headhunters on occassions, with the unit Commander being very impressed with young Vladet's natural skills.

The ''Fury's'' assignment was to patrol the Outer Rim territories to infiltrate pirate groups as well as keep the newly formed [[New Republic]] from establing contacts and bases within the sector. Vladet was given command of one squadron of modified T-Wings aboard the ''Fury'' and the Imperial Naval rank of Lieutenant. The two squadrons of T-Wings were relatively sucessful in their mission, breaking up numerous pirate gangs and engaging New Republic recon forces. For two years they engaged in this mission until new orders was issued by Director Ysanne Isard. Coruscant had fallen to the New Republic and the ''Fury'' was ordered to regroup with the main Imperial fleet.

Vladet Xavier is a member of the Krath Order of the Dark Brotherhood.

Character History

Vladet Xavier was born in Kor Vella, Corellia in 10 BBY. His family has strong ties with the Imperial Military, with the vast majority of his relatives having served in some branch of the military. Over the years Vlad has served as a pilot in the Imperial Navy, a Command Staff member of the Emperor's Hammer, a Bounty Hunter, and he has finally begun his training as a Dark Jedi.

Early Life

10 BBY to 6 ABY

Vladet was born into an upper middle class family in Kor Vella, Corellia. His father, Captain Benedict Xavier was a distinguished Imperial Naval Pilot who flew numerous missions for the newly formed Galactic Empire. Benedict was one of the few TIE Bomber pilots who successfully flew more than ten combat missions without being killed - he was later one of the first test pilots for the Assault Gunboat. Vladet's mother was Lieutenant Natalie Xavier, a nurse in the Imperial Medical Corps. The two met when Benedict was on leave back home on Corellia and they have been together ever since.

There was little doubt what Vladet would be doing in his life, having been trained in the Imperial Military way of life from as long as he could walk. Having access to military flight simulators from age six, he quickly perfected his flying skills. The local Corellian Sector Police (CORSEC) unit even allowed Vladet to fly one of their Z-95 Headhunters on occassions, with the unit Commander being very impressed with young Vladet's natural skills.

At the age of sixteen Vladet applied for admission to the Imperial Naval Academy on Prefsbelt IV. He was admitted without question due to his parents' background, although he would have to wait like everyone else to join at the legal age of eighteen. In an interesting turn of events, Emperor Palpatine was killed when the Rebel Alliance destroyed the second Death Star over Endor. The Imperial Academy lowered its admission age to sixteen and Vladet, eager to strike back at the Rebellion, accepted the Academy's offer.

Prefsbelt IV and the Outer Rim

6 ABY to 9 ABY

Vladet and other Cadets training at the Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy.

Vladet found life at the Imperial Naval Academy facinating and exciting. He had been training on military flight simulators for many years but Vlad also found he had a passion for political debate as well. Most Cadets at the Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy only spent six months training to get Flight Certified and then were transferred to a squadron aboard a Star Destroyer. Vladet was fortunate enough to get accepted to the two year program where he not only earned his pilot certificate, but also a university degree in Imperial Politics and Government. Given his education and credentials, he was eligible to serve as an officer aboard a Star Destroyer, but first Vlad craved being a starfighter pilot. After graduation he was assigned to the Nebulan B Frigate Fury, an Imperial Special Operations vessel.

The Fury's assignment was to patrol the Outer Rim territories to infiltrate pirate groups as well as keep the newly formed New Republic from establing contacts and bases within the sector. Vladet was given command of one squadron of modified T-Wings aboard the Fury and the Imperial Naval rank of Lieutenant. The two squadrons of T-Wings were relatively sucessful in their mission, breaking up numerous pirate gangs and engaging New Republic recon forces. For two years they engaged in this mission until new orders was issued by Director Ysanne Isard. Coruscant had fallen to the New Republic and the Fury was ordered to regroup with the main Imperial fleet.

On the way back to rejoin the fleet, the Fury was pulled out of hyperspace by an Alliance modified Strike Cruiser. A New Republic task force consisting of a Mon Calamari MC90 Cruiser, several Corellian Corvettes, and the modified Strike Cruiser were patrolling along the New Republic border when the Fury dropped out right next to them. A turbolaser slugfest took place with the Fury barely escaping back into hyperspace after the Imperials concentrated their fire on the modified Strike Cruiser and disabled it.

For the next few days the Fury idled in a remote system as technicians repaired as much as they could. Just before they could finish the repairs the quartet of Corellian Corvettes had discovered them and the end result was both sides destroying one another. Only Vladet and three of his wingmates had survived the battle. Not wanting to rejoin the main Imperial Fleet under the control of Ysanne Isard, they decided to lay low for a while and see what happened after the fall of Coruscant.

Two weeks later while on leave, Vladet recieved an anonymous holonet message bearing the highest Imperial Naval access codes. The message ordered him to report to an unknown system near Sluis Van. With his best friends dead and his career in a standstill, Vlad took a chance and left Ession.

The Legacy of Grand Admiral Thrawn

9 ABY to 11 ABY

When Vladet arrived at the unknown system in a rented Lambda-class Shuttle, there was an Imperial Star Destroyer waiting for him. The Identity Friend/Foe (IFF) system of the shuttle tagged the Star Destroyer as the Chimaera. When he landed onboard the Star Destroyer, he was escorted to the bridge where he met with Captain Gilad Pellaeon. Their conversation was short as he was asked to proceed to the living quarters located behind the actual command deck. It was here he met with Grand Admiral Thrawn, official commander of the Imperial Military as elected by the Council of Moffs.

Vlad and Thrawn talked for an hour, with Thrawn wanting very specific details of his career since he left the Academy on Prefsbelt IV. Thrawn was impressed with Vladet's record and acomplishments, although he was concerned about Vladet's lack of loyalty to the military when Ysanne Isard was in command. Nevertheless, Thrawn promoted him to the Imperial Navy rank of Captain and gave him command of the 218th TIE Interceptor "Talon" Squadron, which was stationed on the Interdictor Cruiser Stellar Web.

While Captain Pellaeon was a very competent officer in Vlad's eyes, he just was not Thrawn. The Imperial Military started suffering loss after loss and was forced to retreat further and further away from the Core systems. Vladet continued to serve under Pellaeon's command, growing more and more dissapointed with the Imperial military but not knowing what else to do with himself.

The New Republic Era

11 ABY to 20 ABY

Coming Soon.

The Emperor's Hammer

20 ABY to 24 ABY

Even though he had to take a rank demotion from Major to Lieutenant, Vladet was reasonably happy with his conditions. He served in the Emperor's Hammer for over three years, even being promoted up to the prestigous rank of Fleet Admiral and serving as the fleet's Security Officer. While in a command position, he noticed things were not as good as he had assumed and stepped down after serving nine months as the Security Officer. Returning to the line ranks to re-discover the thrill of combat, Vlad was heavily dissapointed. The TIE Corps he had served for three years was crumbling and falling apart.

He recieved a holonet transmission from his old friend Khadgar, who was starting up an honorable Imperial organization on Archoron. With nothing to lose, Vladet helped setup the new Imperial Dominion, but his actions were seen as mutiny by EH High Command. He was expelled from the Emperor's Hammer service and forced to leave Emperor's Hammer space. Travelling to Archoron to begin yet another new chapter of his life, he discovered that a cadre of old friends and allies had also joined the cause. Unfortunetly the New Republic immediatly noticed this new Imperial remnant group and moved in quickly to thwart it. The Imperial Dominion was effectively destroyed.

Shadow Hunter

24 ABY to Present

Vladet barely escaped with his life from the New Republic invasion and made his way to the Lyarna System, home of the reformed Bounty Hunter's Guild. With nothing else to live by, he became a bounty hunter. It was an interesting change of events but he found it exciting at first.

A year passed and Vladimir found himself bored with hauling in pathetic creatures for credits. One day his mentor and old friend Khamier Sarin invited him to refine his dorment Force powers and become a Dark Jedi. With nothing else to lose, Vladimir began the next phase of his life.
