Laigerick Ryokou-Amor

Childhood

5 ABY - 13 ABY

Laigerick Sithelhood was born to a noble Corellian family. His father, Durza Sithelhood, was steward to the Duke of Corellia. The Duke provided his advisor's family with great wealth, in exchage for Durza's life-long services. The Steward's home was located right outside of the Capital City, Coronet, about 3 miles away. Here, he was the Noble Lord of a small farming community, called Valincia, which was built around his home. When Laigerick was a small child, his father and mother, Narissa, often doted over him, spending all they could to keep him happy, but as he grew older, he demanded more. One of the main treats his father got him, was combat training. He was trained in the ways of the blaster and sword by the best trainers on Corellia. By the age of seven, Laigerick was already a mildly skilled combatant. Laigerick also had a side-hobby that he spent most of his free time on, and that was strategy. He was nearly obsessed with commanding forces, and he always defeated his frineds in the game of "Holo-Strat."

Several days before his eighth birthday, awkward things started happening to the young Laigerick. He started having small preminitions of the future, giving him a great advantage in strategy. His father, seeing his talent, dreamed of the day when his son would lead the forces of Corellia, but these were soon crushed. The young Corellian told his parents about his power, and they reluctantly concluded that they should send a notice to the Jedi Academy on Yavin IV. Laigerick's parents hoped that their son wouldn't be taken away from them, but inside themselves, they knew what would happen. On the day of his eighth birthday, a robed man approached the Sithelhood home. Durza, fearing the safety of his family, went outside to investigate. When Durza exited the house, the man sauntered up, and started talking to him. Laigerick watched carefully from his bedroom window. Finally, after half and hour of conversing, Durza led the robed man into his home. When Laigerick heard the door close behind them, he ran downstairs to see what was going on. His father was at the bottom of the staircase waiting for him, wearing a grim expression. Durza led his son over to the living room, and set him down in a chair across from the robed man, who was sitting on the couch. The robed man explained to Laigerick that he was a Jedi, and he was sent here to tell the young boy that he was a 'Force Sensitive,' meaning he could sense and harness the power of the Force. He told the youngster that he was to come with him, to Yavin IV, to train to become a Jedi, like him. The young Corellian was in shock, as was his family, but nonetheless, at the next dawn, he bed farewell to his parents, and left with the man for Yavin IV.

13 ABY - 23 ABY

Over the next 10 years, Laigerick trained extensively in the ways of the light side of the Force. He was tutored by many trainers in the arts of weapons, meditation, alchemey, etc., but he chose combat as his main attribute. His trainers always passed great complements to other jedi about him. They expected him to be the one of the best in his class, but the now thirteen year-old Laigerick desired more than what he had. He knew he could be more powerful, but at the same time, he knew it was wrong, but the urge to gain this power was too great, and it possessed him. One day in training, Laigerick struck down another student in cold-blood, saying "He was too weak and inferior to be a jedi." After killing his first person, Laigerick developed a thirst for hunting and blood that would never leave him. Sensing this danger, the Masters at the academy brought him before the council, where Luke Skywalker himself, examined the overambitious Laigerick. Finally, the council reached a virdict, saying that he was too dangerous to stay a Jedi, so the exiled him.

Life Anew

23 ABY - 25 ABY

With his few credits, Laigerick got passsage to Nar Shadda, and went to the Refugee Sector to find a place to live. Here, the scum of the Galaxy thrived. Mercinaries were always mugging civilians, and gangs often passed through, bringing nothing but trouble. After his first few months on Nar Shadaa, Laigerick had run out of almost all of his credits, so he decided he needed an occupation, and fast. With all of the turmoil and havok on the overcrowded moon, Laigerick knew his best bet was to try being a mercenary. It paid good, and would be easier for him, since he was a combat expert. Laigerick went to Nar Shadaa's faction of the Corellian Intergalactic Mercenary Force for employment, and was soon hired. Caught up in his bounties, Laigerick forgot the ways of the Force. After being hired, Laigerick decided he needed a weapon, so he forged his own Sith Sword, Nex Addo. For the next several months, Laigerick killed, captured, and hunted people all over the galaxy. Once he had enough credits, he went to local traders and bought himself his own peronal vessel. It was a light freighter by the name of Merk-6. Finally, after proving his extreme worth to the faction, he was sent on his biggest embarkment yet. He was to find a smuggler by the name of Racc Don and kill him. He was supposed to be located on a far away system, called Kapsina.

Of course, Laigerick took the job, and started the excursion that would change his life forever. When he arrived at Kapsina, the Corellian Mercenary went to the local cantina, because he knew he could ask about Don there. At the cantina, he was approached by a mysterious cloaked figure, while having a drink at the bar. The figure explained to him, that he could reconnect his connection to the Force, and give him the power he had always wanted. This perked the Corellian's interest, and he followed the man to the outside. In the alley behind the cantina, the man used the Force to reestablish Laigerick's connection, but it didn't feel the same as before. It felt foreign, and dark, but powerful. Then the man reveiled his true self to Laigerick. He was a Sith! He told the Corellian that he was to come with him, and join the group of Dark Jedi he was affiliated with, called the 'Dark Jedi Brotherhood.' Laigerick once agian, had to make another life changing decision. Since it has always been his dream to have unimaginable power, he took up the Sith's offer, and went with the Sith, to the Antei System, where his life was changed, forever...

Departing the Dark Brotherhood

One day, during a training session, he was severely injured. He was rushed to the Brotherhood infirmary, but that did no good. Upon contacting his family on Corellia, they doctors discovered that it was an injury usually only taken by humans hailing from Corellia. With that, he was sent on his ship, the Merk-6, to his family's home on the planet. After several months of healing, he was discharged from Corellia's Planetary General Hospital. He was urged by his mother to stay, and take his late father's (he died during Laigerick's Brotherhood days) spot as the Duke's Personal Advisor. Laigerick, realizing what all he had missed, and the danger he was in as a Dark Jedi, accepted the offer. He now serves as a Military Advisor of Corellia.
