Character History

"Fortune, Condar, fortune always favors the bold!"

―Jal Skid, Condar's uncle

Youth (3 ABT - 16 ABY)

Condar Sovar was born on Folw VI in 3 ABY, the oldest of three siblings, to parents Navik and Fraya Sovar. His siblings, Venix and Kitera, were born in 5 and 6 ABY respectively. They grew up during what was called the Talyan-Cerebuck Conflict, a war that had lasted for a generation between two countries on Folw VI. Even though the war raged on, Condar and his family were far from the front lines and never saw the conflict up close in those year.

One of the biggest influences on Condar's young life would be his mother's brother, Jal Skid. Jal took to the kid like he was his own, always telling Condar stories of adventures and pirates, of good and evil. One thing Condar will never forget was his uncle saying, "Fortune, Condar, fortune always favors the bold." That saying, that motto never left Condar. It would bring him to great heights, and some downfalls.

Besides his family Condar also befriended a Zeltron named Teebs Doinds during school. They were pretty much inseparable for most of their formative years. It wasn't long before Jal was also telling Teebs of the same adventures he told to Condar. The boys would constantly act out different parts from the stories they heard, wishing one day to have the same adventures when they got older.

"Come on Teebs, it's only a tiny bit of trespassing!"

―Condar Sovar to Teebs Doinds, while sneaking onto Jal's property

Teenage Years (16 ABY - 21 ABY)

Teebs Doinds

Condar and Teebs continued their friendship well into their secondary training. Only this time the adventures they would go on would be real. They would spend days out in the wilderness of Talyan surviving by their wits alone. They would "steal" Jal's speeder and make quick trips into Cerebuck, usually not getting caught by only mere seconds. Soon they had a bunch of other kids, including Venix and Kitera, wanting to join in on the fun. But that was all it was, fun. Condar never let it turn into something nefarious. They never vandalized, stole or ruined anyone's day, and those that wanted to do these things were quickly left behind.

During these adventures Condar would never falter; he remembered his uncle's advice and always ran into any situation, no matter how dangerous it could be. This gave him a reputation of being reckless, and brash. While these words would describe him, Condar tried hard to make sure that only he himself was at risk. Unfortunately he wouldn't always be able to make that choice.

The Rescue (21 ABY)

Around Condar's eighteenth birthday he received some distressing news from his father. His uncle was taken prisoner by the Cerebuck Army. It was also at this time that he found out that some of the adventures Jal told were not just stories. Jal Skid was a smuggler, bringing weapons and supplies to the frontlines of the war. He was caught when one of the Talyan commanders he was supplying betrayed him to Cerebuck's forces. Condar immediately decided he had to somehow find his uncle and save him. Navik, of course, forbid him doing any such thing, but Condar would have none of that and he left his home behind for a time.

With practically no hard Intel at all Condar called on his friends to help him in his search. One of them, Filk Tav, had a brother that worked for some Talyan agency and through sheer luck the brother knew where they were holding Condar's uncle. This cemented Condar's plan, he knew where he was being held and he was going to save him. The teens didn't take to the idea as much as Condar did, it seemed dangerous and reckless to them, but he rallied them and motivated them to help. Teebs was able to get his hands on some blaster rifles, and one of the others had access to a few slug throwers as well. Together they came up with a plan that they hoped would work.

Two months had passed since Jal had been captured and Condar's group was finally ready to move out. It was slow going at first; they had to very carefully get across the border into Cerebuck. Once into Cerebuck they made their way through swamps, forests, and back roads to make it near the complex where Jal was being held. Right before they started scouting the complex they were caught by a Cerebuck patrol. Teebs thought fast and started blasting away at the soldiers. While their focus was on him the others were able to get the upper hand and took out the trio of guards. This event made everything so much more real than they had thought it was. This was the first time Condar had ever killed anyone, and it wasn't a feeling he was hoping to repeat. Two of the group decided to leave after that event. Condar couldn't say anything about it so he thanked them for what they had done so far and watched them leave. The group was down to nine now, still enough to try the mission, but enough to succeed, Condar didn't know.

They scouted out the complex quickly as they could, they didn't know when the patrol would be missed. The building was far smaller than they had originally thought. This worked for their plan very well, especially being two people short. The plan was simple enough, Filk and two others would set off a series of explosives near the north and west sides of the building while Condar, Teebs and the rest would infiltrate the building proper. The first explosive went off and got the guards attention that quickly made their way to the north side of the building. Then another went off, and then yet another. By this time a few guards from inside the complex had left their positions and gave Condar and his team the ability to sneak in undetected. The team infiltrated the complex and began searching room to room for Jal. As they searched they found other prisoners that they set free. One of them, Qil Zonda, was able to let the group know where Jal was being held. With his help they were able to find Jal and finally rescue him from the Cerebuck’s.

The group remained in the building for a while and looked for other prisoners they could free. They rescued about five more when they heard another explosion from outside. They only packed three so they knew this wasn't one of their make. The group plus the freed soldiers booked it outside just in time to see the other three members of their group sprinting away from the building, blaster fire at their feet. Condar and his team ran to confront the enemies but suddenly there was a pouring of blaster fire from behind them. Time stood still as Condar turned around, at first he didn't notice anything different except the officer standing just outside the doorway to the complex. Then his best friend fell to the ground. Condar screamed at the top of his lungs and ran back toward Teebs’ body. It was only with the combined efforts of his uncle and several other team members that dragged him away from the battle and his friend.

Dealing With A Loss (21 ABY - 22 ABY)

Soon after Condar was dragged away, the Cerebuck military sent a detachment to the complex. They sent out patrols and scouting parties to find the team, but luckily none caught up with them. What should have been a happy occasion for Condar, getting his uncle back, turned bitter and mournful. During their entire trek back all Condar did was stare distantly into the horizon. It wasn't until they disbanded that Condar said a word at all. He told his uncle he was glad to have him back, and then he just left.

Condar returned home six months later, a red streak now dyed into his black hair. He didn't talk about where he had gone or what he was up to, but that didn’t matter to his family. They were all glad to see him, glad to see their worst fears weren’t realized. Condar had changed though; he wasn't as happy-go-lucky as he used to be, he didn’t get as excited about things much. He did become more determined though, determined to find the man responsible for Teebs' death. In fact as soon as he came home Condar talked to Filk Tav’s brother, Jerim, and landed an internship working for the Talyan Advocacy Service.

The Talyan Advocacy Service was Talyan’s main intelligence gathering organization. They oversaw everything from wire taps to espionage. Normally the TAS would never hire someone as young as Condar but they've heard firsthand accounts about his actions while rescuing his Uncle and the other prisoners. They wanted someone with that kind of gung-ho attitude inside the organization.

Condar put all the pain, anguish and rage he felt for losing his friend into his work. He ended up being a natural when it came to patterns and encryption. Over the new few months the pain slowly went away, but he continued to feel the rage towards to man that had shot Teebs in the back. Eventually he was able to find intelligence on the complex they had sieged. The Intel included dossiers of all the Cerebuck commanders stationed at the complex for the last five years. With that document Condar was able to pick out the man that had killed his best friend, that man was Sergeant Ric Graven. Condar finally knew who had done it, but he couldn't do anything about it. There was no more Intel about this Sergeant and the complex had been shut down ever since the breech. So Condar continued to work for TAS, always hoping for some more info to come his way on Graven.

"There is only one way to deal with a traitor command, annihilation."

―Condar to TAS Command

The Life of an Agent (22 ABY – 27 ABY)

Condar had performed exemplary as an analyst over the last two years and he was finally promoted to working in the field. He brought the same determination and dedication to his work as an Agent that he did as an analyst. At first his missions were simple: gathering Intel from CIs or covertly, helping to raid Cerebuck interests inside of Talyan, and other tasks that didn’t put him at much risk. But soon the TAS sent him into Cerebuck itself and his missions became far more interesting. He was sent to destabilize towns, political assassinations, tracking traitors; there wasn’t much he was unwilling to do for the cause. Through all these missions he never forgot the real reason he joined in the first place: to find and kill Teebs’ murderer.

At Long Last (27 ABY)

Ric Graven

After three years and numerous operations Condar came upon the one thing he was looking for: info on Ric Graven. Graven had left the Cerebuck military a year earlier and now lived in a town 50 kilometers away from the Cerebuck capital. This was finally Condar’s chance. In the middle of an undercover operation Condar abandoned his mission, removed his TAS hardware and made his way to the town Graven now lived in. This, of course, lead to confusion back at TAS command. They had no inkling of what had happened and scrambled to find out why all communication had stopped. Fate, as they say, works in mysterious ways, this action by Condar led to the most unforeseen consequence: the end of the war.

Condar had finally made his way to the town and began gathering intelligence. He had no idea where, in this town of fifty thousand, Graven lived. But like any good agent he found his target fast. After a few more miles Condar was finally at Graven’s place of residence. What he found there surprised him: Graven looking happy with a family. Condar expected Graven to be alone, and miserable, just like he was. He expected that Graven would have welcome the end to his existence. All these years Condar had never let the thought of revenge leave him, it drove him to become the man he was, it made him the agent TAS wanted. At that moment an uncontrollable rage fell over Condar; he now “knew” that Graven never even cared that he killed his friend, Graven went about his life like it didn’t mean a thing. Something snapped deep inside Condar and he blacked out.

When he awoke pain surged throughout his body. He noticed cuts, some of them deep over his arms, and what felt like his legs and back. Condar looked around and he recognized the location but something was horribly wrong. The entire block was demolished, there was metal and wood thrown about, peoples’ belongings just laying around or blowing in the wind. And there were the people, none of them stirred. Condar saw his target’s body lying on the ground, not a scratch on him. Horrified and confused, Condar ran. He ran until he couldn’t run anymore. He tried to make sense of it all, it must have been a freak storm, a cyclone, he told himself. He didn’t believe it but there was no other explanation he could come up with. Along with dealing with that impossible sight, he now knew his revenge was sated, but it didn’t change anything. Condar still felt angry, and miserable. Trying to push all of that aside he made his way back towards the Cerebuck capital and a safe house TAS had covertly setup there for him.

All “Good” Things… (27 ABY)

Jal Skid

While Condar was out of communication the TAS had been trying to find him by any means necessary. This meant calling in various agents and CIs all across Cerebuck. One of the people they contacted was Jal Skid, who was once again running guns to the front lines. Getting the message about Condar being gone had Jal stop what he was doing and make a course correction toward the capital in order to search for Condar himself. Rushed, Jal had forgotten to change a very important setting in his cockpit.

All this activity wasn’t lost on the Cerebuck military, they didn’t know exactly what was going on but they knew something huge was up. The only other time there was this much chatter was when Talyan had set off a multiple megaton device some kilometers outside of Omani, a coastal city in Cerebuck. They couldn’t afford another attack like that, the war was already costing their country too much. Soon a report came in that a transport with Talyan IFF codes was making its way toward the capital. It seemed too big of a coincidence that this was happening at the same time as all the chatter. The military leaders knowing that if a weapon of the same magnitude or bigger as before would strike near the capital all would be lost. They had to decide quickly on what to do. In the end, based on the evidence they had at hand, they contacted that Talyan government and surrendered.

The Talyan government and military leaders were shocked. They had no idea what Cerebuck was talking about but they didn’t let that stop them from accepting their surrender. About ten minutes into the talk the TAS commander did get in touch with his team and asked them what they knew about a Talyan transport in Cerebuck airspace. This lead to the agents contacting Jal Skid again and let him know that he was still broadcasting as a Talyan. They also ordered him to cease his course into the capital. Once all of that was taken care of both governments sat down to talk about the end of hostilities.

"… and then they gave me the Medal of Honor. Can you believe that?"

―Jal Skid to the Sovar’s

Homecoming (27 – 29 ABY)

The Sassis

Condar made his way back to the safe house after his ordeal and slumped to the floor and broke down. He had too much pain and anguish to deal with and could not function. He stayed in this state for some time until he heard a chorus of loud explosions, he rushed to the window and all he saw were fireworks. He knew there weren’t any parades and it wasn’t a holiday. He turned on the holovid and slumped down again to the floor. His war was over.

Condar eventually got back in contact with TAS, and he was told the whole story. He even laughed for the first time in weeks when he heard about his uncle’s part in it. Even though it was completely indirect most of the TAS attributed the end of the war to Condar himself. Condar would never see it that way, but he wasn’t one to make a fuss about getting recognized, privately at least. With the war over the TAS changed gears for a while, turned their eyes to the skies above instead of the countries below. There was a much bigger war happening in the stars. That didn’t interest Condar any, at that point anyways, so for the first time in years he went home.

Condar traveled back to his parents’ home and stayed for some time. His family was ecstatic to have him back and Condar felt a little better knowing they were around. He didn’t talk much at first, just seemed to be lost in his own world. But eventually with his families help his eyes became a little brighter and the heavy burden on his shoulders felt lighter. Over the next few months Condar came out of his shell more and more and one day his family saw the Condar they had missed for so many years.

During that time, more info came out about the end of the war, and how much better everyone was now. The two countries still didn’t trust each other, especially since the Talyans never told the Cerebucks that there wasn’t a bomb, but things were looking up. Cerebuck didn’t have to give up much, in the surrender, mostly rights to some mines, and other financial securities. Most of the war machine on both sides shutdown as well. This did have a huge impact on the economy for some time, but the Restoration Project, a huge initiative by both countries to repair the damage from the decades old war, helped fill in the need for jobs.

The TAS did however find something new to look into, the Yuuzhan Vong. The Folw system was far too remote to be in any real danger, they didn’t even have many natural resources, but still they kept an eye on these extra-galactic warriors. It was about the time that Courscant got sacked that the TAS started to worry. They asked Condar to come back and help them with their informational analysis of the war. Condar agreed, but only as an analyst, he didn’t want to go back into field work. The TAS agreed and Condar started looking into the Vong.

For the next year and a half things were relatively quiet for Condar, he analyzed battle reports from the front of the war. Tactics that both the Galactic Alliance and Vong were utilizing. He also spent a lot of time with his family. He even bought a used Sorosuub luxury yacht, named Sassis, that he would take his family around the system with. Personally he was much better as well, his anger had mostly left him, and he finally allowed himself to grieve for Teebs. But fate, as they say, is a fickle monster and something was bound to go wrong.

"Get everyone you can to the transports, get them out of the system!"

―Condar Sovar to Jal Skid

The “Battle” of Folw VI (29 ABY)

Condar and his team of analysts were chatting about the newest info they heard from the war and how it could affect them when alarms started blaring. Condar commed the TAS commander and was told that a Yuuzhan Vong task force had just flew into the system. Condar immediately commed his family and Jal and told them to get out and take everyone they could find with them out of the system. Panic ensued at the TAS headquarters. Folw VI had no defenses against this type of attack. There was no reason for the Vong to even come to the system. That didn’t matter to the Vong though they attacked and viciously so. Condar felt the tremors of the blasts inside of the compound. The entire building shook and pieces of duracrete fell from the ceiling. One of these blocks fell and sliced up Condar’s right leg. Condar lost his balance and fell to the floor, blood pouring out from the gash. Condar’s training quickly took over has he ripped part of his shirt to make a tourniquet. But it was too little too late, Condar soon after fell into unconsciousness.

Condar woke up days later in a familiar but strange place: the main cabin of his yacht. He noticed that a portable bacta tank was attached to his right leg. He tried to get up but was in too much pain. He used the intercom to ask if anyone was about. He got his answer when his mother and father came into the cabin. They told him that they knew he wouldn’t leave work and try to save himself if there were others he could save first so they took the yacht and came to find him. They found him unconscious with the huge gash on his leg, then brought him onboard. Then they told him all the bad news: the Vong attack had taken out thirty percent of the total population of Folw VI, and most of those that had tried to leave the system were attacked and destroyed. The Vong didn’t even occupy the planet just attacked mercilessly and then left the system. They saved the worst news for last: Venix and Kitera were both on the same transport, the transport made it out but it hadn’t been heard from since. This really set Condar off, he couldn’t handle both of his siblings being lost or worse. He tried to get up again but his father held him down. There was nothing he could do, no where he could go. The government was a mess, the TAS was in shambles, and most cities on the planet were craters. Condar had to wait, and wait he did.

"Selen? Where the hell is Selen?"

―Condar Sovar to Jerim Tav

The Never-Ending Search (29 ABY – 37 ABY)

Venix and Kitera

The search for his siblings consumed Condar. The Vong attack had wiped out much of the TAS infrastructure, and many of its agents. He had only a few contacts off-world and not one of them knew anything. He was able to find out that they had escaped on an old GR-45 transport named Joyfire. He was also able to get the vehicle ID of it as well, but neither of these helped him. Anywhere he checked in the Elrood sector didn’t have any mention of that transport. Condar didn’t give up though. He took the money he had amassed during his agent days and went to the stars.

Almost a decade had passed without so much of a whisper of his siblings. Condar took the odd job here and there just to stay flying, and stay sane. He traveled back to Folw VI every now and then to stay in touch with Jal and his mother and father. Things started getting better there and even the TAS was back up and running. When he was there last he had asked one of his old friends and colleagues, Jerim Tav, to keep an ear out for any news of the transport, or its vehicle ID. Condar didn’t think he’d ever come up with anything but it was worth a shot.

It had been almost a year since Condar had been back to Folw when he got a signal from Jerim. Apparently there was an incident with his siblings transport over the planet Selen in the Dajorra System a few months back. The only reason it ever got picked up was because of the bizarre circumstances of its incident. It was responsible for causing another ship to crash into the ocean of that world, while everyone was safe the HoloNet took it upon themselves to crown the pilot of the crashed transport a hero for getting everyone off safely. Condar was flabbergasted by the incident but he didn’t care he asked Jerim for all the info he could get on Selen. Jerim got back with Condar a few hours later with all he could find, but also told him he should be careful. There were some strange things going on in that system, nothing he could pinpoint exactly, but Condar shouldn’t take his own ship, nor use his own identity. Condar agreed with Jerim and hired a freighter to take him to Selen.

Condar was dropped off at a landing pad outside of Estle City. He took a look around the buildings near the landing pad and saw a tavern named Bob’s. Thinking that was the best place to get information he took a step in. After ordering a drink Condar started talking to the bartender about the whole “Miracle Landing” incident and he got pretty much the same info from the ‘Net. Unfortunately the bartender didn’t know much more than that, and nothing about the transport that caused the crash. Condar sat down in a booth a bit disappointed, but still hopeful on finding some info here.

Two patrons of the bar started fighting a few minutes into Condar’s entrance and one of them mentioned the name Arcona. This got Condar’s attention. Never one to take what he heard with a grain of salt, Condar took out his datapad and cross-referenced Selen and Arcona. Nothing showed up at all, and then his datapad blacked at for a few seconds. Frustrated Condar downed his drink and asked for another one. By this time the two patrons were back at the bar apologizing to each other. Condar had another drink and then left the bar. As soon as he left though he felt like he was being watched. Condar walked around the back of the bar and into some alleys while trying to make himself small. It was all for nothing though, suddenly he felt something smack against him. He pulled a dart out of his neck and then blacked out.

Condar came to in a dark room, looking around he noticed a Cather female glaring at him. He also noticed an extremely thin looking male, who had to be at least two meters tall. The pair interrogated him about why he was looking for Arcona. He told him he was only looking for his siblings and had no idea what Arcona was. With that out of the way the Cathar waved her hand in front of Condar’s face and told him his siblings were dead and to stop searching. This act enraged Condar, he screamed and suddenly everything not bolted down in the room started shaking. The shaking turned into projecting and objects began moving about the room randomly. One particularly large piece of floorboard went screaming towards the tall man in the room. Deftly he reached behind him, brought out a metal cylinder and cut the piece of wood in two with his, now activated, lightsaber. Seeing that happen caused Condar to snap out of his rage-fueled telekinesis. The whole thing surprised the duo that had captured him. Knowing now that Condar was force sensitive they introduced themselves as Adi Ka 'Taramas and Marrek Gunstinson. They explained they didn’t know anything about his siblings, just that they were tasked to see why someone was looking into Arcona. They told Condar about the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and how if he made it through the training he could have a whole Clan behind him in his search. They told him that he would be trained to control those feelings of rage he has. He could be molded into not only a better agent, but into a Dark Jedi. Condar thought about it over and over in his head, finding his siblings meant everything to him, but he had no other leads. Condar looked up at the duo and simply asked, “What would I have to do?”
