A man hell bent on destroying House Revan for the lost of his son and his career, Solomon Ashe has the assets and the network to make House Revan very uncomfortable.
Character History
High Ambitions
Solomon Ashe was the rising star and stalwart of the Galactic Federation's Naval Intelligence. An admiral by forty, he was considered by some to become the Chief of Naval Operations and perhaps the Chancellor one day.
Investigating Sun-Manadyne Advanced Logistics Services
However, he was informed of questionable acts committed by the Sun-Manadyne Advanced Logistics Services and sent his son to investigate intelligence that Dark Jedis were running the company. Kyle Ashe was killed by the Black Sun while assisting SMALS security forces in repelling them. The Black Sun covered their tracks by executing the survivors and staging the scene to look like the security force had killed Kyle Ashe.
Prisoner Guarding
Solomon was devastated by the loss of his son and swore he would find out who killed his son. The following year would change his life. As commander of a fleet, he was ordered to protect a political prisoner captured in a skirmish that a member planet of the Galatic Federation was involved in. This prisoner was very important, the son of a Black Son Vigo and possibly the key to destroying a part of the Black Sun syndicate. Adm. Ashe was to hold the prisoner until he could be transported to Coruscant for trial.
Revan had not forgotten about the destruction and the death of various security guards. After a long investigation and a trail of bloodied bodies, the Revanites had found which Vigo ordered the hit. Further intelligence uncovered that his son had been captured. As retaliation, a team of Revanites successfully entered the ship, killed the Vigo’s son and exfiltrated the ship without being detected.
Drummed Out
As a result of his failure to protect a high valued asset, Solomon Ashe was stripped of his rank. He had lost everything that was dear to him in under a year. Angry at this, he set his sights on who had destroyed his life. Coming from an intelligence background, Solomon had access to assets that a normal person would not. He had been able to build a large network in his 30 years of intelligence work which would serve him well in his quest for vengeance.
Vengeance
After a year of searching, he had come across who had destroyed him. Starting from the dealings of SMALS, he was able to link the corporation to Troutrooper and House Revan. Further intelligence from his contacts revealed that the commandos who stormed his ship and killed the prisoner wore the markings of House Revan.
Now that his enemy was identified, Solomon dutifully went about finding and destroying House Revan. One week later, his contacts informed him that members of House Revan had been spotted on Salas V in the Unknown Regions. Travelling there with a group of ex-naval commandos who he had worked with during his days in intelligence, they had found and killed two young journeymen.
Heracles
The Heracles was a a heavily modified Arquitens-class light cruiser that Solomon Ashe had "liberated" from a Galactic Alliance shipyard that was awaiting decommissioning. The Arquitens-class was a veteran of the Clone War, this particular one a survivor of several battles. The crew required to run it was noticeably lower then most warships, needing only 2 pilots and a few engineers. It was perfect in Solomon Ashe's mind. Further modifications have been made. Upgrades have been made to the communications suite, power core and engines. Thicker armor and more weapons have been installed.
