Favorite Quote: In Darkness We Live!
I received my first swoop at the age of ten, it was under powered, but I had always had a knack with machines, not long after nothing could touch it. But it was still too slow for me. My father had a customized racing spaceship, I stole it the first time at age twelve, I spent a week in a bacta tank from that incident. Luckily for me bacta seams to work just as well on my species. But that did not stop me. By the time I was fifteen my favorite sport was bating the local space patrol into trying to catch me, they never did. By the time I was sixteen I had been in so much trouble my adoptive parents could no longer tolerate me. They used there extensive contacts to get me admitted to the Imperial Academy. Though I think they lied about my age and species. Shortly after that, all communications with my parents stopped. I have never had any contact with them sense. That was when I changed my name to Shadow.
Significant Events of Adulthood:
My instructors at the academy could not believe my skill with a spaceship, They transferred me to Tie Fighter pilot instruction, where I graduated in the top one percent of my class. Because of that standing I was assigned to the Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet. My first assignment was a Flight member in Tav squadron. Not long after I had been in Tav squadron a robed figure, who never named himself (I believe now It was DGM Khyron),came to my room one night. He said he was from the Dark Brotherhood of the Jedi. He said my skill with a Tie was not just training, he said I had a very high potential in the Force and that I was being sent to the Shadow Academy. It was a very enlightening experience. I learned much from my Dark side masters. I graduated from the Shadow Academy at the top of my class. I was raised to the position of Guardian in the order of the Sith.
My ability to control the Dark Side of the Force now made me an even better pilot. Because of my accomplishments at the Shadow Academy and my skill as a pilot I was invited to join Tau Squadron. The elite squadron of the Dark Brotherhood. I immediately accepted. I am now a member of flight two "Death Bringers", In Tau Squadron, The current Envoy Squadron of the Dark Brotherhood. Tau squadron is a very close knit group, for the first time in my life I feel as if I know what it is like to be really close to someone. When you must trust someone so completely with your life, as you must your squad mates in combat, you form a bond, that is closer than family, which I never had as a child. It makes me strive all the harder not to let my squad mates down, and to uphold the honor of Tau all the more. I would give my life gladly for any member of Tau squadron, as I know they would for any member of Tau. That is what makes Tau a truly Elite squadron, and the most formidable squad around
Alignment & Attitude:
I care nothing for credits. My only goal in Life is to serve Grand Admiral Ronin (Grand Admiral of the Emperors Hammer Strike Fleet), Grand Master Khyron (Grand Master of the Dark Brotherhood of the Jedi), Tau Squadron, and most of all The Emperor, to the fullest extent of my abilities. Long Live The Empire!
Former Occupations (if any): None
Hobbies: Scuba Diving, Canoeing, Camping.
Tragedies: Not knowing my true origin.
Phobias & Allergies: None
Personal views of the Empire (and Emperor's Hammer): The Empire is the pinnacle of galactic governing. Unlike the Old Republic that rotted from the inside. The Empire encompassed more systems than any form of government before it. It is the true and rightful government and will be restored to is former glory. Long Live The Empire!
Reason for joining the Emperor's Hammer Elite Strike Fleet: The Emperor's Hammer is the best military organization ever created. It represents the best hope to return the Empire to it's rightful Dominance of the galaxy!
Other comments or information (optional): I have enjoyed serving the Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet, and hope to do so for a long time to come.
