Ravian Pulastra is an ex-Republic Army soldier, and now works as a mercenary for hire. He hates Clan Plagueis for the defeat they caused him, and is currently teamed up with Jonah Kraul as they plan their revenge. As of now, Clan Plagueis is unaware of the warrior vowed to destroy them.

History

As galactic war raged across the galaxy the intense, the bad tempered Dashade named Ravian Pulastra found a military career, joining the New Republics forces, rising to the rank of First Sergeant very quickly. He almost always taught his troops to live by a personal motto of his, 'Think Not, Fight Hot'; making those under his command fight hard and unmercifully. His Company ripped through the remnant of the Imperial military, vanquishing those whom had oppressed him and his entire species because of their xenophobic views for the last two decades.

Then one day, the Republic disbanded their military from the wartime effort, thus stripping Ravian of his goal: to remove all traces of the Imperial scum from the galaxy. He was unsatisfied and disgusted with the Republic's new politics. He left the infantry immediately, his men following him in similar fashion to continue the fight. Soon, however, he found that without a constant flow of funding he could not wage his personal war - soon Pulastra's Company found themselves as bounty hunters.

Eventually the Dashade traced an Imperial faction tied to the Emperor's Hammer in the Acarr System. Because he refused to pay high prices for elite information he had no idea the foe he now chased was no longer affiliated with the Imperial based group, nor that they were Dark Jedi. Upon attaining this information he was forced to strike an uneasy alliance with a known Imperial named Kraul.

When they reached the Acarr System, however, they found that a battle was already in progress and toward conclusion. Just as the two opposing forces jumped to hyperspace, Kraul's sensors picked up some important information. The star of the system was going supernova. They needed a place to hide, or else be completely obliterated when the sun imploded. The fastest thing they found was the place where one side of the attacking forces had hyperspaced to. Hoping it would put them near their target, as well as surprise them, they quickly followed the trail.

It turned out that it placed them in the hands of a pirate group called the Crimson Tide. Here, they learned that their targets were Dark Jedi. Jonah Kraul formed an alliance with the pirate leader for reasons of his own. When Ravian refused the offer, Kraul exiled him from his ship. Very reluctantly, he turned to the pirate leader, who offered him a place as commander of the Tide‘s land forces. He took the offer, but secretly knew that he was only using it as a way to get to the Dark Jedi that had just ruined his career.

The Dashade joined the pirate group, and together they started forming plans to attack the Dark Jedi of Clan Plagueis. He found himself entangled in a web he'd never wanted to get caught in, yet discovered he was unable to escape without first facing the spider.

Other

  • While the Dashade is somewhat squatty, he maintains a fascinating strength with a barrel-like chest and ripped, toned muscles across his entire body. On the field of battle he is a charging boar, blasting enemies from their feat with his incredible strength and range granted by his pole arm. Deceptively quick, the only weakness of the former First Sergeant is his temperament that leads to brash decisions that commonly point to fighting
  • Equipment: Retaining his standard Republic Armor, he has redecorated it giving it's base silver color accents of red, jagged stripes - giving a more fearsome appearance. A cape has been attached to give a more dramatic appearance, it is also red. Dual blasters are strapped at the warrior's thighs, each being a Relby-K23 (known for faulty safeties, but used because of it's great stopping power). The warrior retains his favorite weapon, a polearm, most commonly related to a Force Pike that is six feet in length with a lethal point at the end. Last, but not least, a grip of throwing knives rest upon both of his forearms securely trapped within their leather hold.
