MAIN CAST
BACKGROUND STORYLucidius HaleLucidius Hale was born in 32 BBY. to a large and wealthy family of musicians, artisans, and merchants on his native planet of Alderaan. Learning what he could from his parents, brothers, and sisters, Hale developed a knack for being a jack-of-all-trades at a very early age, and entered the family business as a teenager. Although life as a businessman did not suit him very much, so Hale decided to submit an application to the Imperial Academy on Corulag so that he could defend the Empire and his beloved Alderaan.On his 20th year, Hale graduated from the Academy and was given a junior officer assignment in Scourge Squadron - then Grand Moff Tarkin's outfit. For a decade, Hale quietly rose up through the ranks and became a distinguished officer. And then everything changed. The Battle of Scarif officially kicked off the Galactic Civil War, and in shortly thereafter the destruction of Alderaan. Hale was devastated and angered that the Rebel Alliance effectively caused its demise. With all of his family killed in the incident, Hale dedicated himself to destroying the Rebel Alliance once and for all. His anger and fervor was noted by Grand Moff Kaine, who transferred Hale to the SSD Executor so that he could gain personal satisfaction from Death Squadron's primary mission to locate and destroy the Rebel Base. While onboard the Executor, Hale's future was ultimately decided by Darth Vader himself, who appointed Hale as the commanding officer of the ISD Avenger and the Imperial Expeditionary Force following the Battle of Hoth.Immediately following the Battle of Endor, Pellaeon rallied the surviving Star Destroyers of Death Squadron, but major schisms in Imperial High Command as well as Operation Cinder prevented the Imperial Remnant from maintaining a semblance of order. In the years following the Battle of Endor, the many thousands of Star Destroyers that once roamed the galaxy fell to hundreds. The Imperial commanders who still believed in the New Order began following Grand Admiral Thrawn, who was recognized as the leader of the Imperial Remnant. In an effort to consolidate forces into a new Star Destroyer Squadron, the Imperial Remnant met at Jakku for internal negotiations. However, the New Republic ambushed the Remnant forces hoping to eliminate Thrawn, who as it turned out was not there. The Battle of Jakku was catastrophic for both sides, but cathartic as well. Short thereafter the Galactic Concordance was signed and the Imperial Remnant traded Coruscant for an armistice. However, Hale had enough. His war was over, and he left the Imperial Remnant for good. Jana SableJana Sable was artificially conceived, grown in an artificial womb, and was delivered in 20 BBY by Arkanian scientists who were experimenting with growing humanoids instead of cloning them in order to work around Imperial Decree E49D139.41 (which prohibited all cloning unless specifically sanctioned by the Empire). Using genetic material from dozens of species as well as high amounts of artificial midichlorians, Jana is a hybrid of many different humanoid species (though has retained some distinctive Arkanian features) and was engineered to be faster, stronger, smarter, and more beautiful than normal humanoid females, naturally immune to disease, and higher tolerances for pain, heat, and cold. Jana's "parents" saw her as the prototype of potentially a new generation of designer-grown lifeforms that could outperform clones or even droids in some applications, and had plans to keep her existence secret until she reached maturity... but the Empire discovered her when she was just 1 year old. Seeing a golden opportunity to raise a super soldier, the Emperor himself personally oversaw her development as well as her Force training. On her 16th birthday, she was gifted the title of the Emperor's Shadow and given her first mission. During the early years of the Galactic Civil War, Jana was tasked with assassinating any political opponents of the Empire across dozens of systems. Once in a while, for the Emperor's own personal amusement, she was forced to duel Sith Inquisitors... which only further strengthened her ties to the Force and her lightsaber abilities.After the Battle of Hoth, Jana was assigned to the Imperial Expeditionary Force by Darth Vader in order to handle any black ops mission required by Hale. Within a matter of months, the working relationship between the two became romantic, although they spent much time apart due to the needs of various missions. During the Battle of Endor, Jana was deployed to the surface to defend the Imperial base, but was ambushed by a mysterious Sith Lord who called himself Darth Algoz and who in actuality was hoping to defeat Darth Vader and usurp him as the Emperor's apprentice. The duel with Darth Algoz was brutal and left Jana scarred both physically and emotionally despite being victorious, but the worst had yet to come. After the second Death Star was destroyed, the Force echo of the Emperor's death sent her into a downward spiral and severe depression. In the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, Jana fled and went to Arkania in search of her "parents" and perhaps some sense of a normal life. The search took a few years, but eventually Jana learned the truth of her origins, but this only caused her to relapse. Feeling utterly lost, she left Arkania after hearing a quiet whisper in her mind saying "Jakku." Little did she realize that the Living Force was guiding her back into the thick of it all, as shortly after Jana arrived at Jakku, the Imperial Remnant did as well. As fate would have it, Jana reunited with Hale during the Battle of Jakku and since then have rekindled their romance and began a courtship.K-3VAThe K-family of droids was produced exclusively for the Galactic Empire. Within the K-family there are several numbered series (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) that denote different roles, with the 3-series being designed specifically for administrative and diplomatic services. K-3VA was assigned to Hale when he was appointed as the CO of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, and since then has performed superbly well. Hale refers to him as "Keeva" and in order to broaden his capabilities, Hale installed the entire K-family cognition cores into him after the Battle of Endor as military service droids became harder and harder to source. However, this produced a dramatic change in K-3VA's personality, as he has become very snooty towards "lower-class droids" and snarky towards humans.
