 +
Ylvia Skelgard was born on Year -8 Day 132 by the Combine Galactic Time in the northernmost region of Kiffex where with her two siblings and dozens of cousins she had spent most of her life and only few times left her homeworld to visit her uncle Ygremor on Kiffu. Because of her Kiffar clan origins, Ylvia developed an aptitude in hunting and from early childhood went to all Skelgard's gatherings that always started with the ceremonial Grand Hunt in the forests and fields of Kiffex. There clan retainers and family members tried to prove their prowess to each other and to Pegrotis - God of the Hunt. Her clan itself - [[Clan Skelgard]], in which she was born in to, had always been known to foster artisans of various trades. Most notably her father Vizimir Skelgard was a well-known blacksmith and forge always needed helpful hand, where Ylvia was eventually put to work as she reached her teenage years. Long hours and many days there ironing the metals and smelting them in tools and weapons of war, had resulted in Ylvia becoming physically strong and adept in metallurgy. During these teenage years she found inspiration in life through art and as such one of Ylvia’s favorite pastimes was to wander the great wilds and capture the unspeakable beauty of nature on an empty canvas. In her room at Skelheim Greathall where she grew up there is a wall that is covered by her earlier works.

As she reached full adulthood, she became interested in political side of the Galaxy. Even if Kiffex was a neutral planet, her clan was always considered pro-Imperial, both from rhetoric's against the New Republic that were thrown out by her father to the clan's overall given encouragement for its members to join the Galactic Empire. This made Ylvia to grow up in atmosphere that harbored warm sentiment towards the New Order, and as such when she reached twenty-six years, she signed up for the service in the [[Galactic Empire|Empire]] and joined in the [[Imperial Academy]] to serve faithfully to the Imperial cause and make her clan proud.

{{Quote|Better to fight and fall than to live without cause.| Skelgard's saying}}
 
  
−
Clan Skelgard is an ancient Kiffar clan of Kiffex that differs from others in that facial tattoo of the clan is applied to all existing members who wish to be part of the clan and willingly participate in ancient ritual where they procure a skin or a pelt of a hunted animal. They have been known to be fierce, independent and enthusiastic warriors and artisans, and many become renowned mercenaries and traders all over Kiffex. Because Skelgards have mostly been living on Kiffex and only rarely ventured outside the boundaries of the Azurbani system, they have been for most part unheard off in the galaxy at large and only have been known to Northern Kiffar communities. Skelgards can also trace an unbroken Kiffar lineage that extends almost eons back and as such the clan somewhat prides on being pure Kiffar's and have developed Kiffarcentric view that is being passed down to children through their parents. Most Skelgards who live on Kiffex prefer to wear animal skins and furs that they have personally skinned and acquired or cotton clothing that has been made on a traditional loom. The traditional Skelgard outfit also includes merganrok, a cloak that has been given to an young adult and which has been sewn by his or hers parents. The cloak to outsiders is just a piece of clothing, but to the Skelgard's it symbolizes parents willingness to let their child go outside in the world while still having their protection and support from dangers.

Twenty-six year old Kiffar arrived at the [[Prakith]] [[Imperial Academy]] in her personal Starwind-class Pleasure Yacht called ''Crimson Rose'', that she was given by her father to celebrate the occasion of being accepted and starting her career in the service of the Empire. The place to Ylvia was a sharp contrast to her every day life on Kiffex, as there she grew up in an secluded clan community and rarely saw alien species or was exposed to grander places than few larger settlements on Kiffex, but at the academy there were dozens of recruits, droids, Training Officers and even aliens she had never seen or heard about, all bustling about and paying no attention to her. Ylvia was soon assigned to an brilliant Training Officer - [[Elaine von Veritrax]], under whose guidance she took first steps in the service of the Galactic Empire.
  
 +
In few weeks of her time in the Imperial Academy, Ylvia was given her first command of two Stormtrooper recruits: Alsten Virai and Astrid Cote, with whom she was tasked to investigate disturbance in an energy supply in the adjacent district of Prakith. There the small fireteam was ambushed by squads of battledroids who were under the command of two criminal cartel Jawas. Using her battle proves and quick instinct Ylvia with her team was able to overcome the assailants and capture the culprits, delivering them to the hands of the Imperial authority. With the first successful assignment as an Imperial officer under her belt, Ylvia soon graduated the Imperial Academy with Honors and was assigned to serve in [[Imperial Army]] as Second Lieutenant.

In first weeks of service within the Imperial Army as Second Lieutenant, Ylvia was assigned to serve on a ice world of [CLASSIFIED], where not only the dropping temperature and cold weather could kill you, but other more dangerous things: the predatory wildlife that had adapted to these conditions as well as desperate elements of the society that looked towards banditry and smuggling as means of survival. Each night and day Ylvia and her troops battled for their lives as they maintained the Imperial order in these savage ice wastelands.

Skelheim Greathall is the clan's main household and it is situated in the densely forested foothills near the northern parts of Kiffex. It was a dark, primal place, where the old forest had laid untouched for ten thousand years. The homestead itself looked like an old rustic great hall fashioned from the nearby great oaks, coupled with adjourning smaller buildings and an small mine shaft that led in the mountainside and to the Skelgard family fortunes that laid below the ground. Ancient crypt of Bleak Falls, where Skelgard dead were being buried was situated not far from the Skelheim Greathall itself.

| description = There are deep divide between Skelgard's and Brynald's even when there are strong blood relations.}}During the late days of the Great War on Kiffex, the clan was split in two by Augamor Skelgard who established his own clan called Clan Brynald. The divide was over the deep political issues that revolved around the Galactic Civil war, but there are rumors that the issue was more of a personal nature as Vizimir, the brother of Augamor and the chief of the clan, married the love interest of his brother. Whatever the issue was, Augamor tried to kill his brother and after the failed attempt, he convinced many of the Vizimir’s retainers, including close family members, to follow and join in the rebellion against the Galactic Empire and Vizimir himself, even when Skelgard’s had been for many years staunch supporters of the New Order. Augamor also took a new surname of Brynald and a new clan symbol of a bear. Ever since then there have been rivalry between the clans and even open skirmishes that set blood relatives at each other’s throats long after the Kiffarian civil war.

Clan symbol is a raven that is usually painted over the war banners or hulls of the clan ships. It also serves as basis for the clan's Qukuuf (facial tattoo). In ancient clan tales it was said that Skelgard Raven was believed to forebode death and ill omen to anyone who dared to cross them on ill intentions. The qukuuf itself was separated into three parts; wings, tale and 4 circles of life.

• '''The Wings''': applied below the eyes and symbolizes the protection from illness, and disease. In old clan tales it is said that any symbol that was worn besides the eyes induced fear in the enemies, and protected against the abuse of power.

40px-Imperial_Emblemsvg20copy.png Early Life

Ylvia Skelgard was born on Year -8 Day 132 by the Combine Galactic Time in the northernmost region of Kiffex where with her two siblings and dozens of cousins she had spent most of her life and only few times left her homeworld to visit her uncle Ygremor on Kiffu.

There clan retainers and family members tried to prove their prowess to each other and to Pegrotis - God of the Hunt. Her clan itself - Clan Skelgard, in which she was born in to, had always been known to foster artisans of various trades. Most notably her father Vizimir Skelgard was a well-known blacksmith and forge always needed helpful hand, where Ylvia was eventually put to work as she reached her teenage years. Long hours and many days there ironing the metals and smelting them in tools and weapons of war, had resulted in Ylvia becoming physically strong and adept in metallurgy. During these teenage years she found inspiration in life through art and as such one of Ylvia’s favorite pastimes was to wander the great wilds and capture the unspeakable beauty of nature on an empty canvas. In her room at Skelheim Greathall where she grew up there is a wall that is covered by her earlier works.

As she reached full adulthood, she became interested in political side of the Galaxy.
