Character History
Early Life
Blade was born on the planet Taruma shortly after the Exodus that took the Brotherhood to freedom. He was cloned from tissue that had been carried away by the order of Lady Alanna. Blades first memories were of floating in darkenss and then being thrust into the light, the first face he saw was that of his mistress, Lannie. He was given to Lannies sister, Bubbles for retraining and to help him readjust to life.
Upon completition of his training, he was sent off on his trials. It was there that he became what he was destined to be. He used the genetic knowledge to enter into Emperors Hammer space and track down his prime, the person he was cloned from. It was not hard to do as he thought the same as his original. Not suprisingly, his prime was serving in the EH's poor excuse for a brotherhood as the Grandmaster. Seeing that the group was a sham and a total joke, Blade moved in for the kill. It was on the DGN Lichtor V, the Intelligence Division flagship that he made his move.
During the struggle in the dark, it has always been unclear who survived. Was it the clone or the much more powerful original. No one has ever found out...
The Emperor's Hammer
Blade prime, General Ric Taldrya, rose thru the ranks as a fighter pilot in the TIECorps. He joined Cobra Squadron and rose thru the ranks to the position on Commander. After a longterm tour there, he left to seek other opportunities. It was also there that he came to the notice of the Dark Brotherhood. He apprenticed to KP Bubbles in the clan of Taldryan, becoming a battleteam leader in short order. It was there that he gained bonds that would last for years.
Not long after being elevated to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight, the Brotherhood left the EH territories for freedom. Ric was in command of Cobra Squadron when the order came down to fire on the fleeing Dark Jedi ships. Ric ignored the order and let them go. One of the members of his squadron, LCM Vessicant, also fled according to his conscience. Ric settled back and left the active service of the remanants of the the Brotherhood that stayed behind for reasons of their own.
Concentrating on his flying, serving another tour as a Commander, this time in the Avenger Task Force, Ric was conatacted by the group known as Praetorian Squadron. He was intrigued at the chance to fly with the best pilots in the galaxy and left on the day that his 4 month tour ended. He stayed with Praetorian Squadron for years, even becoming Commander for his third time. He stayed in that position until conflict with the Flight Officer made him make a choice. He was also serving as the GrandMaster of the Splintered remnant Dark Brotherhood. He made the choice to serve the darkenss and resign as Praetorian Commander. He still had powerful ties to the group and remains as a shadowy advisor to this day.
After a few months, it became apparent that Ric had an uphill battle trying to improve the Brotherhood under the thumb of Assanine. Ric grew frustrated with the lack of leadership from the EH Command Staff and their mismanagement of the fleet. He resigned in disgust and took a vacation.
Not long after, the current Commander of Praetorian Squadron sent Ric a request to rejoin the squadron on active duty. There was bad blood between Ric and the Flight Officer, who Ric saw as an asskisser to Assanine. After much squabbling between all parties, Ric went to the DGN Lichtor V to prepare to leave EH Space. It was there that he came into conatact with the clone from Taruma...
The Dark Jedi Brotherhood
After the battle on the Lichtor V, Blade left the EH dressed in a Praetorian Flight suit and flying a TIE Praetor. He made the jump to on of Taldryans former worlds to get supplies and to decide his next move. Should he fly to Taruma and rejoin his clan or should he try and expand his abilities? With the battle on the Lictor over, his trials had been fulfilled yet he still felt incomplete. He returned to Ektrosis and then to Archanis only to feel unsatisfied.
Leaving his clan, he ventured out into the rest of the galaxy to find his way and soon became attached to CSP. He served with distinction in the reclamation action, that saw the retaking of the home system from the Vong. After a while in Caliburnnus he served briefly as the Aedile in Dorimad Sol before pressure took its toll and he had to resign. Now he spends his time working on new weapons and clones, hopefully getting better at both.
A New Era
Who survived the fight on the Lichtor V? Only time will tell, but one thing is for certain, Blade will never be the same again...
