Early years
Born into a rich family with ties to the Imperial Palace, Zachary Savk learned the ways of the New Order at very early age. Savk joined the Imperial Youth Corps at the age of 11. When he discovered that his parents were Rebel sympathizers, he turned them into the Imperial Security Bureau. Savk watched as the stormtroopers dragged them away from their estate on Coruscant. From that day on he has been in the service of the Empire. Savk enlisted in the Imperial Navy at the age of 16c training in flight simulations and memorizing Imperial law to the very letter. As a Crewman, Savk made a vow to destroy all that is Rebel and holds the conviction that anything Anti-Imperial must perish. After all, if it were not for the Rebels and their pitifully destructive ways most certainly he would not have had to turn his own parents in for their own good.
Imperial Service
Slane: "What can you tell us about yourself Admiral? About your early service for the Empire"
Savk: "I joined the Galactic Empire eleven years ago and went straight into the Navy. There was no academy back in those days, you got thrown right into the pot and had to fend for yourself. I worked my way up within the Naval Command Fleet (which was renamed the Second Assault Fleet) for the next year. The biggest contributor to my advance at an early time would have to be the Imperial Navy Academy. Now if you recall I mentioned there was no academy when I joined. Grand Admiral Veynom tasked me with creating it. He promoted me to Flight Sergeant and made me the Director of the INA. From there I handled all new recruit testing and evaluation with a small test I called the ARIT. Academy Recruit Indoctrination Test. It was a simple test that was designed to weed out certain people and also to provide a basic understanding of some of the tasks a new pilot would be expected to perform. Compared to today's academy it was archaic to say the least. But it was a foundation that today's academy is built on."
Slane: "Any particular mission you would like to tell us about?"
