==Early Life and Education==
 
==Early Life and Education==
−
Born Y-3 Day 352 in the [[Daupherm States]] Sector on the planet [[Cortina]] to [[Everin Rezik]] and his wife [[Laida Koss]].
+
Born on Y-29 Day 346 in the [[Daupherm States]] Sector on the planet [[Cortina]], Cihllian Rezik entered the galaxy as the eldest child of scientists Everin Rezik and Laida Koss, both employees of the esteemed Karsati Biolabs, a reputable institution contracted by the Galactic Republic's Department of Agriculture and Non-Sentient Creatures. Among the couple's progeny, Cihllian stood as the eldest, accompanied by his younger siblings — twin sisters Sylvia and Alaasi, and a beloved younger brother, Illias, whose bond with Cihllian transcended their decade-wide age gap, fostering a closeness that has endured to the present day.
 +
 
 +
The transformation of the [[Galactic Republic]] into the [[Galactic Empire]] marked a pivotal juncture in the Rezik family's trajectory. Ever-adaptable, Cihllian's parents swiftly aligned themselves with the principles espoused by [[COMPNOR]], particularly embracing its pro-human ethos. This ideological alignment not only shielded them from upheaval but also propelled Everin's career to new heights, earning him a prestigious promotion to Senior Project Manager within the newly designated [[Imperial Research Division]].
 +
 
 +
Amidst these seismic shifts, young Cihllian found himself navigating adolescence within the burgeoning Empire's embrace. Enrolled in Cortina's chapter of the [[Sub-Adult Group]], he distinguished himself in various athletic pursuits, laying the groundwork for his unwavering allegiance to the New Order. This formative period not only shaped his physical prowess but also instilled in him a steadfast dedication to the Empire's principles, setting the stage for his future endeavors as a loyal servant of the Galactic Empire.

 +
===University of Coruscant===
 +
 
 +
Cihl secured an athletics scholarship to the University of Coruscant in Year -11, where he pursued a Major in Non-Sentient Zoology with the intention of transitioning to the Imperial Academy after one year — an obligation tied to his scholarship from the Cardael Group. Throughout his time at the university, Cihl maintained average grades academically, while his performance in track and field consistently stood out, albeit without garnering significant recognition. A professor's observation noted his latent potential for academic excellence, yet also highlighted occasional distractions stemming from external, "worldly" interests that often diverted his focus away from his studies.
 +
 
 +
===Imperial Academy===
 +
 
 +
Accepted into the Imperial Academy after one year in university, Cihl would become enamored of the traditions emphasized by the Galactic Empire and find purpose in the structure and military lifestyle introduced in his Basic Military Courses. In messages to his parents, he would recount his admiration of the humanocentric military organization and its policies which saw the Empire's might expand significantly since its transition from the Galactic Republic. He would later graduate with Honors, earning his commission as an Ensign in the Imperial Navy.

On Year 24 Day 186 (June 1st, 2023), Empress [[Inwe Ventidius]] I ennobled Cihl as a Baron of the Empire. Under Emperor [[Jai Meridan]] I, he was landed as the Baron of [[Isht]].
 +
 
 +
The heraldry of the barony is a field per chevron rayonny, the tincture argent and or. In red at center is a dragon, with three sable swords centered in the or field. A sable star in the upper left quadrant, to which the dragon reaches.

Shortly before his first birthday the family relocated to [[Coruscant]] whereby a series of misfortunes involving his parent's poor business dealings resulted in their rapid descent into the planet's underworld - landing at last on the 1,984th level - deep within the Alien Protection Zone.  It was in this environment that Cihllian was exposed to the many prejudices harbored against humans as a result of the Galactic Empire's pro-humanist agenda.  Deep in the pits of Coruscant, where law was seldom found or relied upon, and outnumbered, he and his family were an easy target for the grievances held by many of their so called 'neighbors'.  It was this feeling of persecution that planted within him the ideals that would later find common ground with and acceptance of the Empire's rhetoric against alien species.
 
  
−
Cihllian was significantly influenced by Kail Rainer, a human Underworld Police Officer and sometimes father figure, who'd told him that, "The Underworld, like life, is a stern taskmaster.  The best means of getting through each day is to understand all you can about both and then do your best and not worry.  Especially with those things you have no control over."  These words he kept in mind always.  It was through Kail's Imperial connections that Cihl was introduced to the Sub-Adult Group and then to the wider Galactic Empire.

His athletic performance during SAG functions, particularly in regards to track and field, drew the attention of the Cardael Group who began grooming the youth for eventual service in the Imperial Military, awarding him a scholarship to the University of Coruscant with the expectation that he would later enroll at the Imperial Military Academy at Prakith and seek a commission.

Cihl currently maintains the rank of Sith Adept within the secretive Order of Force practitioners though he seldom displays any outward appearance to denote such, beyond the carrying of a lightsaber. He is also known to refrain from any public displays of Force affinity, often giving rise to rumors as to whether or not he is a Force User at all.

Early Life and Education

Born on Y-29 Day 346 in the Daupherm States Sector on the planet Cortina, Cihllian Rezik entered the galaxy as the eldest child of scientists Everin Rezik and Laida Koss, both employees of the esteemed Karsati Biolabs, a reputable institution contracted by the Galactic Republic's Department of Agriculture and Non-Sentient Creatures.
