Fang Ao Tian is a Dark Jedi. Born on Byss, Fang was raised by adoptive parents on Falleen. After leaving home, Fang joined a group of freight haulers and smugglers. Eventually, the group was stranded on Elrood. Low on money, Fang became an assassin in order to help the group buy another ship. When the group's leader, Fang's lover, found out what he had done, she stole his credits, purchased a ship, and left the group behind.

Determined to avenge himself, Fang tracked down and killed his former lover, her family, her new fiancé, and his family. Fang struck out on his own, resuming his career as an assassin and expanding into bounty hunting. He fell in love with and became the partner of Valithrae Torafin, a minor bounty hunter and highly-skilled pilot. The two became a successful pair notorious for their efficiency and discretion. However, when the duo tried to assassinate a powerful Dark Jedi, Fang was nearly killed. Feeling that he would need to become more powerful in order to kill the Dark Jedi and other powerful marks, Fang joined the Dark Brotherhood.

Character History

Life on Byss

Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Emperor Palpatine ordered the start of a genetic research and experimentation program. This program was intended to unlock the secrets of longevity and physical prowess in various species. An unknown number of humanoid sentient beings were abducted and brought to newly-constructed, highly-sophisticated labs on Byss. Though most of the individuals became test subjects, several of them were sedated and had their gametes extracted. The respective eggs and sperm were tampered with to varying degrees before being combined.

Over fifty children of various races were produced this way. They were housed in a separate lab and placed under the supervision of Doctor Mehdi, a leading Falleen geneticist. One of Mehdi's nurses, a Mon Calamari, privately refused to refer to them by their serial numbers. She named the lone Kiffar child Fang Ao Tian, though it's unknown who or what inspired the name.

Fang and the other children were treated relatively well. They were given a basic education, fed bland, nutritious food, and kept at a high level of physical fitness. Mehdi and his staff typically only monitored the children, though some were subjected to further experiments. Though the Emperor never visited the laboratories on Byss, the staff often referred to the children as "Palpatine's Children".

Liberation

When the Emperor died in 11 ABY, the test subjects were liberated by the New Republic. While the adults that were willing and able returned to society, the children were placed with foster families. Mehdi, who had somehow escaped capture, bribed those in charge of the relocation and controlled where the children went. Fang, whose parents hadn't survived Mehdi's experiments, was adopted by a married Falleen couple.
