| Jesec Dirium was born born on the planet Aleron in 24 BBY. His father, Jeph Dirium, was a long time smuggler who had a long standing relationship with a waitress called Mirya Fhisan. Jeph and Mirya were "together" for several years when Mirya finally got pregnant with Jesec. After Jeph had learned about Mirya's pregnancy he never came back to the isolated world of Aleron. Mirya never knew Jeph had abandoned his family until several months after Jesec was born since he only visited the planet once every few months. Realizing that her baby's father was never returning, Mirya turned to drinking. | | Jesec Dirium was born on the planet Aleron in 24 BBY.

| The young Jesec had little to do in Daekun, the capital of Aleron. The planet itself was sparsely settled due to its large desserts that spanned across most of the surface. In addition to the sweltering hot dessert, a heavy smog covered most of the cities due to heavy mining. Most the planet's youth received a basic education before they went to work in the mines, helping various companies extract the valuable minerals and ores beneath the planet's surface. Bitter that his father had left him and his mother, Jesec vowed to leave the planet and make a name for himself among the stars. Working year-round since age ten, he managed to save enough credits so he could buy an old landspeeder. In addition to attending school, where he managed below-average grades, he raced through the countless canyons that were all over the planet. He continued to develop his driving skills until he dropped out of school at age sixteen; working full-time at the capital's spaceport, he learned how to fly freighters and light transports. The end of Jesec's teenage years were tragic when his mother suddenly died in a landspeeder accident, the official cause of the accident being 'massive intoxication.' Completely distraught, Jesec quit his job at the spaceport and bought passage to Corellia, hoping to jump start a career in smuggling like his father. | | The young Jesec had little to do in Daekun, the capital of Aleron.

- "Kill them all. There's no need to make any mistakes."
- ―Jesec Dirium
Admiral Jesec Dirium is a pirate Warlord that currently commands a large contingent of ex-Peace Brigade personnel. After the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Dirium was appointed by the Peace Brigade to lead suppression raids on defenseless colonies that were planning to resist the Vong assault. A long time smuggler and pirate, Dirium has a large amount of space and combat experience although it has mostly been limited to minor battles against weaker opponents. Extremely prideful, the pirate Warlord works on behalf of the Peace Brigade on the promise of riches and peace. Dirium hopes to become wealthy enough to retire on a backwater world, far away from the continuing conflicts between the Yuuzhan Vong and the rest of the galaxy.

Character Information
Physical Appearance
Jesec is a fairly tall and lightweight human male with no distinguishing physical characteristics. While he has been a smuggler and pirate for his entire adult life, Jesec still tries to maintain an air of dignity about himself by wearing paramilitary and semi-professional clothing. Still, he retains the look of a pirate by his wild black hair (which is starting to gray) and his tendency to go without shaving for months at a time. He is never without at least two types of weapons: usually a heavy blaster pistol and a vibroblade tucked into his right boot. The Admiral walks with a very slight limp that resulted from injuries to his left left during a shootout at Chalmun's Cantina in 16 ABY; the limp is very small and usually unnoticeable unless someone is specifically looking for it.
Demeanor
While Jesec is usually calm and collected, in some situations he has a tendency to explode in rage and anger. Due to his father leaving his mother before he was born, Jesec constantly feels the need to prove himself to anyone that doubts his ability in combat. He was never a very successful smuggler - or pirate for that matter - but he did well enough to boost his ego and confidence. The Warlord is prideful, but will not hesitate to retreat from a combat engagement if the odds are not in his favor. Jesec prefers brute strength tactics as opposed to coming up with a plan and executing it at a specific time. Generally, he will go in "guns blazing" instead of thinking up a plan or any tricks. Due to his prideful nature, Jesec would rather die in battle than to surrender and spend the rest of his life in a cell.
