"My story begins here, on Dantooine. I was born to a family not poor, nor wealthy. My parents worked hard for their living, and that's where I credit my strong worth ethic from. But shortly after birth, I was found to be what they call, "Force sensitive". Meaning, I wasn't a normal baby. And wouldn't be a normal person. My parents were so so about the whole thing.
As I grew older, and was training to become a Jedi, I realized being a Jedi wasn't what I wanted. Why did everyone who was "Force sensitive" have to be a Jedi? I didn't want that life for me. Don't get me wrong. I'm a good, honest person. And have worked hard for everything I've achieved in my life. But being a Jedi wasn't what I wanted.
After leaving the sanctuary of the Jedi, I moved back home to Dantooine to reunite with my parents. I had been gone for twenty, long years. To me, nothing had changed at home. Yes my parents looked older. But in general, nothing had changed. And at the same time, I was completely a different person. My parents never got to know me as a baby, kid, or teenager.
For the first time, this was our first time actually being acquainted with one another. At first, it was a little weird. You're gone for so long, you begin to forget about things. And how could you remember somebody you've never met? Regardless, I still loved my parents. I mean, they were my parents.
Around the age of twenty-two, I learned of a faction called, the Imperial Knights. They were like the Jedi, but had different views on things in life. And that factor was what led me to joining the Knights. So without a second thought, I left my parents again, for Bastion. Where I had hopes of becoming a Imperial Knight. However, things were about to get out of hand. Quickly.
I had started the initiation process when it all happened. An explosion rocked, Bastion. Then, all hell broke loose. The Sith came out of nowhere, and killed everyone in their path. It was clear they were taking control of the Empire, which would be a step closer in hopes to dominate the Galaxy. I was in a study hall when the structure began to come down around some fellow students and I.
All I remember is blacking out. When I awoke, I found myself on the planet Generis with a fellow student. We were both terrified. She was just going through the initiation process just like me. After the Sith took control of the Empire, they were purging all the Imperial Knights. Well, what was left of them anyways. Even though I wasn't considered a Knight, I had that bond for them.
I felt angered towards the whole ordeal, and would despise the Sith for the rest of my existence. But for the time being, I would hide in exile. For I was no match to take on a Sith. Even at the lowest level. As time passed by, slowly, I began to hear more and more rumors about the Imperial Knights or as they're called "terrorists" now under the Seth regime. This was good news. Because I started to lose all hope.
I now had a purpose in life; to purge the Sith from the Galaxy. Even at the age of 31, I feel like I could still contribute to the Knights. And to the Sith currently reading this after ransacking my home, you're the first one to go."
