"'You treat war like Chess. Games with identical units and laws set in stone that all must adhere to. Did you honestly think Essik would play by rules you dictated?"
―Lyccane

Essik Lyccane is a Gand male of the lungless sub-species serving in the fleet of Clan Odan-Urr. A lifelong soldier, Lyccane has spent almost his entire life serving on one ship or another throughout the myriad of conflicts which shook the galaxy to its core. First serving in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars, he quickly sided with the Rebel Alliance following the purge of all non-humans during the rise of the rise of the Galactic Empire. While both loyal and extremely diligent, he vehemently disagreed with what he saw as mistakes by both the leaders of the New Republic and Resistance in its later years, and was forcibly retired due to his advancing age.

Tired of watching blind men leading the galaxy to ruin, he was only stopped from returning to his homeworld by a chance encounter with Ka Tarvitz. After being convinced that there were still those who could use his experience, he joined the White Lotus Resistance and has since served directly under the Jedi of Odan-Urr at the rank of Commander.

Character History

Clone Wars (20 BBY - 19 BBY)

One of the rare few Gand who opted to associate themselves with the wider galaxy over their isolated homeworld, Lyccane rose to prominence during early 20 BBY. While initially tasked by his Pocket Colony with assisting the few traders which visited the backwater planet, a growing fascination with the technologies and ships of foreign powers led to him breaking away from his home within a matter of months of accepting the role. While initially serving as an adjutant on a sprint-trader travelling between the core worlds of Coruscant, Corellia and Chandrila, Lyccane's natural talent for tactical countermeasures and quiet pragmatism marked him for officer material. Despite his limited experience with stellar mechanics, Lyccane's capacity to pick out inherent weaknesses prevented the freighter's capture by CIS aligned privateers on no less than two occasions and directly contributed to crippling a vastly larger enemy vessel during a boarding action. While under most circumstances this would have merely marked him as a skilled figure, word of these actions reached Republic command on Chandrila. Two years of relentless warfare had sapped the Republic Navy of skilled officers and soldiers alike, and Lyccane found himself unexpectedly conscripted into the war effort.

Rebellion & Galactic Civil War (18 BBY - 19 ABY)

With and to hostilities thanks to the dissolution of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the rise of the Galactic Empire, Lyccane found himself in a very different galaxy than the one he had joined. Rather than the victory they had been promised,
