Lasidious von Feldure is the Group Executive Officer of the Fifth Assault Group, Fourth Imperial Fleet. He is known as a fiercely loyal Naval Officer whom is highly devoted to the Galactic Empire and protecting all it stands for.

"A commander must ask himself several times in the day, 'What would I do if the enemy were to appear now in my front, or on my right, or my left?'"

— Feldure

Early Years

Lasidious von Feldure was born on Y-25 D353 to an upper-middle class, aristocratic family on Dantooine. Lasidious has for centuries past been the name given to the second son born to the Feldure family, also has it been the tradition for one son to be in military service and one to shadow the father and manage the family estate. Lasidious's elder brother Kal lacked the courage to face the dangers of military action and regarded the military profession with the opinions that come only from a coward's point of view. So Lasidious entered the Imperial Academy, to the shame of his Father a lifelong fool and puppet who saw the Galactic Empire as a villainous burden on the galaxy. He was a fool of a Republican by choice, that was to Lasidious's shame.

Imperial Academy

Under the guise of "Von Pook" Lasidious entered the Imperial Academy and was happy to do so for his mind was beginning to work; Throwing away the shackles of his past he was anxious to learn, to know, to get on, and to serve the Emperor. He devoured books, learnt the ancient galactic campaigns, embraced the Imperial mindset and soon became the talk of the class. He was admired, envied; He claimed he was conscious of his growing powers and admitted he enjoyed his superiority.

It was on the third month at the academy that he received the news that his father, the sole financial support of his youth, had died, killed in a local worker uprising. The galaxy had lost a rebellious old fool and Lasidious's dull witted, cowardly brother had gained the family estate. From that day Lasidious found himself dedicated beyond duty to the Empire, determined not to have such a pointless and naive life as his father and brother.

"And now I am here, between stars, dreaming, and dissolving my melancholy in the full vent of Imperial service. To where will it take me today? Again to the verge of death? Still at the dawn of life, I must hope for many more days to come. It now feels a lifetime since I last saw my family, a parting that filled me with nothing but the greatest of joy. That was a time when I feared death, but now I do not, now I fear a life of failure. So what then drives me to not fear self-destruction? It is not through despair and a will to give-up because I'm lost in endless thoughts of the sufferings of life, no it is not, it is simple; death is inevitable, beyond our jurisdiction, so why not commit one's end to that of a greater cause? One that will live on when you are dust, and that is one reason why I will always serve the greatest of the Galaxy's causes, that of the Galactic Empire!

I often wonder what spectacles await me when I return home, one spectacle of-course will be that of my family who will swiftly find themselves on their knees, laden with chains and kissing in fear the hand that strikes them!"

— From Lasidious's personal log as a FCPL

Imperial Navy

Lasidious graduated from the Imperial Academy and was transferred to the Imperial Navy as a Cadet E-2. Lasidious still serves in the Imperial Navy; now as a Lieutenant Junior Grade O-2.

Fleet action in undisclosed system.

"When you stand on the edge of the abyss with death staring you in the face, teeth glaring and the walls of fate closing in on you, choking you and offering no quarter, what will make you stand and fight a few moments more and not falter and run as the fear beckons you ever backwards, tempting and blinding you to not risk making that one ultimate sacrifice for the Empire?

The Galactic Empire's greatest strength is no doubt its ready supply of talented and ruthless pilots whom serve the Empire with indefatigable loyalty, battling terrorists, warmongers, pirates and others whom threaten Galactic peace and prosperity. Being an Imperial fighter pilot means dedicating your life to that cause, to the Imperial Navy and to your brothers in arms. It is imperative for a fighter pilot to be clear of this, of his principles, his will to serve, and if needs beckon; to die in protecting the Empire and all it stands for. One could go as far to say only when you have truly embraced that into your body and soul are you ready to be an Imperial Fighter Pilot."

— Lasidious speaking to trainee fighter pilots.

Career Sergeants

Leading up to day 300 of year 11 Lasidious worked closely alongside NCOMD (then called Navy High Command) in developing the roles of flight sergeants within the Imperial Navy and formulating a proposal that would expand the duties, positions and powers available to them, including new positions of "Career Sergeants". Although Lasidious's finalised proposal met the approval of the Imperial Throne the project had to be cancelled only weeks away from instigation due to new military reforms brought in by the new regime under Emperor Cherokee.

Fourth Imperial Fleet

On Year 12 Day 32 with great sadness, yet being carried by his strong will to fulfil a prosperous future in Imperial Navy, Lasidious transferred from the Fifth Imperial Fleet to the 9th Assault Group of the 1st Imperial Fleet as a Capital Ship commander. The Fifth had been his home since graduating from the Imperial Academy. But with the determination to further his career and experience as an Officer and Commander, Lasidious set forth. His ambitions weren't long to be fulfilled when on Year 12 day 84 NCOMD appointed him as the new Executive Officer of the 5th Assault Group of the 4th Imperial Fleet.

"The Empire expects great things of you; but will you be worthy of that trust? There are many more battles before you, more worlds to capture, more systems to liberate. You all burn to carry forward the glory of the Imperial Navy; to dictate a glorious peace; and to be able, when you return to your homes, to exclaim with pride: `I belonged to the glorious 5th Assault Group!´

Pilots, that conquest, I promise, shall be yours; but there is a condition you must swear to observe: to respect, carry and inspire your brothers in arms; to follow your leaders with respect and without demurral, and to give your all to your unit.

`Sentients of the Galaxy, the 5th Assault Group is here to break your chains; you may greet it with confidence. Upheavers and rebels toward progress and stability; hell has come to rain upon you!´"

— Exert from LTjg Feldure's speech to the 5th Assault Group as the newly appointed GXO.

Off-duty

Legionnaire's Arms Tavern

The Legionnaire's Arms Tavern (also known as the L.A.T or LAT) was won by Lasidious in a skilled game of Pazaak from a one eyed Duros spacer who's name remains unknown. On arriving at the Tavern in the Trax sector Lasidious discovered the Tavern to be in ruins and to be the location of several families of squatting Ewoks. After the exterminators had finished dealing with the vermin infestation and after many months of restoration and modern technical instillations the Tavern was brought to the grand standard that can be seen today. On year 11 day 122 the Tavern was named the Legionnaire's Arms and on day 123 opened to the Imperial Public.

The Legionnaire's Arms although an independent public Tavern is exclusively for members of the Galactic Empire the Imperial Union and Nationalized Factions. The Tavern is mainly run by and used by off-duty Imperials, and even in it's infancy has seen many famous faces pass through its doors.

An old picture in a new frame
