"He who has not learned to obey, cannot be a good leader"
―Coop Ter'An

Coop Ter'An is a blue skinned nautolan from Glee Anselm. He was born into a clan that had a reputation for a large population of blue skinned nautolans.

Character History

Coop Ter'An grew up in a small village just south of the Pieralos. The capital city of the Nautolan race. He grew up in a small village not worrying about many cares of life. Coop had rarely ever seen a human and most of them where friendly fishers. Coop had two brothers and three sisters. He was the only blue Nautolan in his family and the tribe they lived with.


Bad happenings

28 ABY Coop's childhood was spent swimming around in the deep underwater caverns with his two brothers. One day when he was young his two older brothers left him behind at the village. He was busy talking to some human so they decided to leave without him. Coop didn't realize they had left until they where already in the water and out of sight. Coop knew the region well so he went into the water. After about an hour of searching for his two brother he found a small dagger just floating in the water. Coop moved in and instantly recognized it as his oldest brothers hunting dagger. He looked around to see if they where trying to sneak up on him. Something just didn't feel right about it. He moved to the surface where he saw a ship move up and off the water. Coop hurried back home to find no one had even noticed the boy's disappearance. He talked to his parents, who petitioned their chieftain to send out a search party. The Chieftain denied the families pleas. Coop could feel the rage building in his chest as he picked up a nearby warrior's axe and let it fly at the chieftain. He never saw his brothers since that day. His family has presumed them dead.

Drunken Disaster

31 ABY Coop was cleaning a fish with his brothers knife when he heard the commotion coming from outside. Coop exited the hut to see his fathers human friend beating him to a bloody pulp. Coop ran at the two and barreled into his father's assailant. Coop spun up with his brother's knife in a reverse grip ready for the drunken mans attack. The man didn't let Coop down. He came forward with a tree branch in one hand and a bottle of Whiskey in the other. Coop didn't even think twice. He brought the blade of the knife across the mans throat and watched him bleed out at his feet. The local law enforcement arrested him on murder charges but the charges where completely dropped after a holocron containing the video of the fight surfaced in the evidence. When Coop got home he barricaded himself in his room and stayed there for two weeks before emerging with his pack on his back and his brothers dagger on his waist. He never said a thing to his parents. He just left.

One fateful Afternoon

32 ABY Coop received a holocron with some directions on it. He followed them to the site where a small shuttle was waiting there for him. He paused once to look back over his shoulder before climbing aboard.

Faithful Clash

Coop looked around him as his haze of intoxication finally wore off. Coop Looked around at the windowless room. 'Where am I?' Coop thought to himself as he rubbed his eyes and took account of all of his equipment. Once Coop took a full account of himself and his surroundings he realized the only thing he was missing was a very large sum of credits.

Coop scratched his face as he knelt down to assess the extent of the damage on the Twi'Lek's body. Coop could tell this man was viciously assaulted with a lightsaber and the deep burn in his upper right arm coincided with damage created by a standard issue military sniper rifle system. Coop was surprised the Twi'Lek wasn't missing that arm entirely.

Coop investigated the Twi'Lek's pockets and discovered a substantial amount of credits on him. 'Hmm, this will almost double the losses for the night,' Coop thought to himself as he counted it. Coop remembered seeing this armor around. 'I know this armor,' Coop dug through his memories before it came back to him. Coop felt dumb for not recognizing the armor at first.

“A merc,” Coop said aloud as he rose and made his way to the door where the distant sound of speeders humming through the atmosphere could be heard. As Coop reached down he realized the door did not have any form of handle or access pad. Coop could feel his annoyance and rage begin to boil.

Coop thought maybe the pad was hidden for some form of sleekness. Coop reached out with the force to see if he could detect anything in the walls or on the other side of the wall. Coop fell a sudden wall in the force around him. 'What in the...' Coop thought to himself. He had never been stopped so abruptly and suddenly. “Well door,” Coop said with a smile, “you have elected to open by the way of pain.”

With a flip of his wrist coop produced his emerald lightsaber and gave it a violent spin before he plunged it hilt deep into the metal door with a wry smirk. Coop was surprised to find that the door was not that think and that it cut easily. Coop had a medium sized doorway cut out before he stepped back and deactivated his emerald blade with a whiz and a light pop from the release of the arc. Coop gave the mercenary one last glance over his shoulder before he made his way through the door.

Coop exited the doorway only to find four men with brandishing lightsabers and in the attire of a jedi. Coop's wry smirk returned as he reached out with the force to assess the power of the four men standing before him. Coop recognized one of the men as a Nautolan from his childhood. 'Small galaxy,' Coop thought to himself as he reignited the saber and took a standard banlanth stance before the men. Coop couldn't feel much control of the force or emotion from any of the men so they couldn't be more than padawan learners or newly appointed Jedi knights.

Coop knew which one was going to attack him first just by reading the force that emanated off him. Coop's constant training of his precognitive abilities was finally paying off. Coop deflected the novice downward slash with a slight flick of the wrist bringing his lightsaber from his right to his left in front of him. After bating the mans attack aside Coop stepped to his right and spun back to his left bringing his lightsaber across the mans shoulders. The man's face was still a look of bewilderment as his head rolled across the floor to a stop at the Nautolan Jedi's Feet.

“Quick, if you don't scurry back to your master,” Coop's smirk reemerged, “You may end up like your friend here, lacking in the head department, and I hear they are an important appendage to keep attached.” The three remaining men tossed glances back and forth before they all nodded. The one to Coop's far right charged in for a stab that a blind Wookie could have seen a mile off. With one movement Coop smacked the mans charge to the right with a downward slash from across his body. With a quick turn of his wrist, the man that charged in at Coop, didn't even realized the Sith's lightsaber was buried hilt deep in his chest until he fell slain at Coop's feet.

“Next.”

Coop smiled as the last two showed signs of a wavering confidence. Coop changed his tactics and charged the two. As he charged Coop hit the Nautolan Jedi in the chest with a force push that sent the man flying into the wall behind him. Coop could sense the remaining Jedi's swing and easily dodged to his left. The man's swing flew wildly past Coop which caused him to stumble past the Sith. Coop came in fast behind the man, grappling him to the ground and stabbing him in the throat.

The Jedi's passing was not quick nor was it painless as he laid on the ground gasping in agony as his life faded from existence. Coop squared off with the final combatant. The Nautolan was named Glik Ter'An. He was one of Coop's classmates from childhood. Coop was not impressed with the Nautolan's ability. His rudimentary knowledge of banlanth was a joke. The Nautolan didn't even have a strong connection with the force. This fight wouldn't even provide Coop with a smidgen of entertainment, let alone a test of skill.

Coop spun to his left with his saber out wide, smacking the Nautolan's lightsaber out wide to his left. Coop just spun his saber in circles as he waited for Glik to attack. Glik stood there looking from his fallen comrades to his old classmate who stood there shrouded in black standing over their corpses.

“So,” Glik flinched as Coop broke the silence, “You have three options,” Coop paused to wait for Glik to tear his gaze from his dead friends, “Glik isn't it?” Glik nodded with out looking away from the bodies, “option one is you can flee as fast as you can, you may survive,” Coop paused as Glik looked up at him, “depends if I feel like chasing you across this planet, the second option is you attack like these three idiots and I kill you,” Glik's eyes locked on to Coop's lightsaber, “or you could give in to your grief and hate and join the winning team.” Coop changed his stance with his hands out wide. Coop was goading Glik into attacking him. Any Jedi worth his weight in gold would never fall for this little trick. Glik was not worth his weight in gold.

Glik's stare changed to a smirk. He charged in at Coop with a downward slash. Coop smiled as he burst into motion. He stepped to left as he swiped Glik's attacked to the side. This movement put Coop's emerald saber behind the lavender blade of Glik, and with a light pull from Coop's left to his right Glik fell to his knees as his head bounced across the floor. His face still holding onto the look of puzzlement as Coop deactivated his lightsaber and made his way to a screen. He opened the user logs and searched the names and dates before he came upon something that bothered him immensely. Coop read the info out loud to ensure he was reading it right.

“Log 382, Jedi Knight Coog Ter'An, Capture of Lord Macron Goura Sadow's Apprentice.” Coop felt like he had just been hit by the Grand Master's strongest force push. One of Coop's missing brothers was a Jedi.

Coop took several moments before he gathered his thoughts of his brother and the feeling of elation that welled up inside him.

As Coop exited the corridor he was in, he walked out on to a shuttle landing pad. There was one definitive problem as he look around with irritation. There was no shuttle to steal. Coop's plan was shot to pieces as he stood there looking around. Coop knew he couldn't pull a shuttle down while it moved at top speed, so he would have to improvise. The problem was Coop couldn't concentrate on the task at hand. His thoughts on his brother being a Jedi were to much to concentrate through.

Coop finally decided to sit and meditate to see if he could calm his nerves. Suddenly the steady hum of a shuttle's approach broke his concentration. Coop knew that this was not a shuttle he wanted to have to confront but the fight was inevitable. Coop rose and brandished his emerald lightsaber as he paced back and forth bringing back all the memories of hatred, of anger, and emotion he could use to win this fight.

The shuttle came to a hovering halt as the bay door lowered and a single form descended to the landing pad. The man turned and brandished his blue lightsaber and took a combat stance. Coop still could not see the man's face but he knew it was Coog. As the shuttle ascended to a safe distance Coop's adversary was revealed. The blue skinned Nautolan that stood across from him was his older brother Coog Ter'An. Coop's emotions became resolute. He would either turn his brother to the dark side of the force or he would destroy him.

“Well ain't this an unpleasant surprise,” Coop announced to his brother, “two brothers pitted against one another in a live or die scenario, man this is really going to suck to have to put you down.”

“Coop, it's not too late to change your wa...” Coop's upraised hand silenced his brother. “No need to even try, I am quite happy where I am Coog,” Coop could not hold his smile in any longer, “See I enjoy destroying things and not being looked down on for it.” “Coop, if you will not listen to me then listen to our older brother,” Coog relaxed his stance as he looked for some sort of sign of Coop's reaction. Coop just smirked and stood there. “So where is our older brother Coog?” Coop asked as he began to pace back and forth slowly, “by the way, whats with the dead merc back there?” “He tried to defend you when we took you into custody.” “Really,” Coop said with a chuckle, “I have no idea who that merc was but he looks like you guys had a hard time with him.” “Yes, he fault like one possessed, he kept saying that we would regret the day we tried to cross the dark brotherhood.”

“So where is Caas?” Coop asked as he slowly felt his irritation boiling over. “He will be here momentarily,” Coog replied with a smirk, “patience little brother.” “See patience is not,” Coop's voice began to grow a threatening tone as his emotions fine tuned into a solid rage, “one of my strong suits!” Coop cleared the distance between the two nautolans almost instantaneously. Coop lead with a downward swing that his brother easily blocked. Coop turned to his right, putting his back to his brother and spun his emerald blade out wide with his left hand as he ducked down dodging his brother's horizontal slash from Coop's left to his right as he spun around to attack him again. Coop brought his blade up in a diagonal slash that Coog dodged by ducking to his left. Coop could sense his brother's next move as he brought his saber in a full circle to block his brother's horizontal slash. With a push Coop disengaged the two lightsabers which fed into his brother's momentum as he spun around to try the other side. Coop's emerald blade was waiting for him as it collided with Coog's sapphire blue lightsaber. The ensuing sparks from the collision caused Coog to retreat quickly out of range of his brother so that he could reattain his full visual spectrum. Coop didn't waste any time as he erupted with a burst of speed towards his brother and aimed a dual-handed downward slash at his disoriented brother. Coop's emerald blade was stopped just shy of his older brother's head by a lavender blade. Coop looked to his right where a cloaked figure stood holding the lightsabers intricate hilt. “That is no way to treat your twin brother Coop,” The man's voice soothingly slipped from beneath the cloak and like tendrils bored their way into his subconscious mind. Coop shook it off as he realized who the man was. Coop spun to his right bringing his lightsaber across the throat of the cloaked man. The man was fast but not fast enough to have the fastener to his hood removed. The cloak laid clumsily over the man's face.

“You show some skill with a lightsaber little brother.” “And you show none Caas,” as Coop called his oldest brothers name the cloaked figure tossed his shroud to the ground behind him. “I bet you want some answers,” Coop stopped Caas with an upraised hand. “How many Jedi do I have to humiliate and kill for you to get the clue, I like where I am at,” Coop reached his hand out and could feal the tendrils of energy course down his arm as he wrenched Coog's lightsaber from his hand, “Oh, and I was wondering, is that your weakness or something, I think I have shut up two of you today with just my upraised palm, are you that weak willed that you would just shut up, is my palm that scary?!?” Coop was using this diversionary tactic as not only a way to gain a little time now that he had caught the attention of some onlookers with speeders, but also a way to build up his rage just in case he had to actually stand and fight both of his brothers. Coop's waste of time paid off as a lone speeder came within his jumping distance. Coop didn't squander the chance.

Coop burst into motion towards the craft. With a flick of his wrist Coop threw a crate toward the incapacitated Coog and leaped the expanse, landing on the civilian craft. Coop lifted the lone driver and plunged his lightsaber through his chest, wounding him mortally and then threw him at his older brother who would have to give up the pursuit to save the man's life.

As Coop sped off towards the safe house Caas helped Coog up to his feet. “Juliet one, we need emergency personnel at holding area Zulu, one civilian with a lightsaber wound to the chest,” Caas turned to the three dead bodies, “also inform the council that we have four funeral rights to perform, Master Caas out.”

“Master Caas,” Coog approached his older brother, “I am sorry I was not strong enough, he has been lead to far off the path to be brought back to the light.” “Its sad,” Master Caas replied, “it was our fault for keeping him in the dark about us leaving.”

Coop's mind was racing as he arrived at the safe house and gave them his entrance codes. His brothers were both alive and both Jedi. How did they get to where they were and why did they not contact him or his family. Coop could only think of one reason.

It all came together as he sat down in the interrogation room. His family and clan all knew they had left and that telling him would only make him want to leave and join them. What good that did for them to keep this secret. He had just left anyway. Coop was infuriated at the notion that his entire clan had deceived him. They would meet their reckoning day, Coop would ensure that. Coop looked up at the man before him. A human female with brown hair and blue eyes sat across from him.

“So,” The woman looked into a file before her, “my name is.” “Teu Pepoi, Rollmaster of Clan Naga Sadow, I know of you,” Coop stared evenly into the womans blue eyes. “Well, Protector Ter'An you have some explaining to do as to why you disappeared for a week,” Teu stopped for a second and produced Coog's lightsaber that Coop had taken from his brother, “and why you have the weapon of a Jedi on your person.” “Yes ma'am I do,” Coop took a deep breath as he explained the incident that took place and all the details of what happened.
