About

Personality

Robert has always been a man of honor and integrity as well as having a strong sense of duty to his government which he undertakes with great pride. He is an advent fan of protocol and formality while performing his duties. He believes protocol to be an important part of military discipline and showing respect for superior officers. However he is not perfect and has been reprimanded a few times when he has erred, but has taken any reprimands with acknowledgement and a mindset of not making the same mistake twice. When not on duty Robert is quite social and easy going.

Throughout his life Robert has known and seen injustice. He saw first hand the corruption of the so called Galactic Alliance. He sees clearly what is wrong and what is right. This sense of justice is another driving force in Robert's determination to assist the Empire in bringing order to the galaxy. He is easily distressed when confronted with injustice or witnesses it happen to someone else however he normally won't fight it head on, knowing it to be futile in most situations, instead he remains calm and tries to correct the balance of injustice by being a loyal soldier in the Empire.

" Laws change depending on who's making them, but justice is justice."

— Robert Decca

A major part of Robert's live is purpose. He believes his life to be meaningless and uneventful without a higher purpose. Currently he believes serving in the Empire even at a low level is enough to give him a greater purpose though is looking forward towards the day he can serve in a higher capacity for the betterment of the Empire.

" Happiness is not gained through serving yourself, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose."

— Robert Decca

History

Pre-Operation

It is not exactly known when or under what circumstances Robert was recruited into II, the only thing known is that he was select by then Bureau Chief Elvira Falston. Much of his actual service records prior to joining the New Republic were erased by II to facilitate an easy entrance into the Alliance. All that remains is a cover history...

Operation Greenhorn

The New Republic

Early in Year 13 Robert joined the New Republic. After taking an aptitude test it was decided that based on his operational computer skills he was to placed in the Republic's ship building factory, Incom Corporation. After a short term Robert was appointed Director of Prospecting for Incom. However things turned sour quick when Robert began realizing how corrupt the Republic really was. Seeing disorder, leaders bickering and slandering each other in public and corruption run amuck made Robert very uneasy to the point of him resigning from Incom Corporation and abandoning his Republic citizenship.

The Falleen Federation (Work-in-progress)

Military Portrait of Lt. Commander Decca

Still wishing to carry out his mission, Robert applied for citizenship in the Falleen Federation as well as enlisting in the Falleen Army at the rank of Acting Lieutenant, a senior non-commissioned rank. Within the first few months Robert befriended Deputy Director of the Federation Intelligence Bureau, Sabo Magus. The two would work together closely during the duration of Sabo's service to the Federation.

During the Fiefdom Program Robert was appointed as Governor of the Rintonne System, under the jurisdiction of Sabo Magus, Governor of the Lambda Sector. Robert worked on new city designs aimed to balance employment rates, increasing affordable housing for the workers, and provide entertainment to keep the citizens happy. However the Fiefdom Program would come to an end after the Falleen economy took a turn for the worst and the central government was forced to take direct control of systems.

The Award

It was during this time that Robert was sent a holocommunication being awarded a Letter of Commendation by then Director Inwe Ventidius for his work, the holomail read as follows:

"Thank you for your continued and imperative service to the Galactic Empire. It is an honor to be able to work with individuals who demonstrate such high and consistent loyalty to the Imperial cause. "

The exact reason for the award is still classified.

The Exiled Rangers

Early in Year 14 then leader of the Federation, King Rick Farlander had a meeting with Sabo about gathering intel through a group disguised as a neutral mercenary faction. Rick Farlander transferred 40 million credits from the Royal Treasury and gave to Sabo to start the faction. The faction, in theory, was suppose to operate as an external extension of the Federation Intelligence Bureau, without the ties to the Federation. Robert, who by then was already an advisor to Sabo, was asked to join him in the faction and on day 62 he retired from the Federation and joined Exiled Rangers, his rank transferring over to Lieutenant. Robert worked closely with Sabo on the organization and structure of the group as it became clear Sabo was not very organized and things were already in a state of disarray. Robert implemented basic structure of three Directorates: Operations, Analysis and Engineering, he also wrote protocols and procedures regarding intel operations. For his continued work and support Sabo appointed Robert as Director of Analysis. Varro Belle, a Major in the Fallen Army would later join as Director of Operations.

Director Decca acting as a double agent

Tension soon arouse between Sabo and the King when the King declined monetary support for the group, citing a failing economy that had put a burden on the Treasury, however other support would be given such as ships and weapons. Sabo became angered and even mentally unstable. Robert was often interrupted while working to hear Sabo complain about the King's refusal for help and even mention breaking away from the Federation. At that point Robert knew Sabo was mentally unfit for command and also incompetent when it came to intelligence work as he had a delusional understanding of how it all worked in practice. He could not stay and be branded a traitor with Sabo so he contacted then Regent Jado Du`rik to explain what was going on and reaffirmed his loyalties to the Federation then requested to rejoin the Federation and go back to active duty in the military.

Sabo soon deserted his duty to the Federation, taking the faction with him that was bought with Federation credits. Robert did not hear from him after that. But soon after Exiled Rangers dissolved and was no more.

The Return (Work-in-progress)

Robert returned to active duty in the Falleen Army at the rank of Lieutenant. At this point the Derra War was beginning and Robert was tasked with training soldiers before their deployment. It was not long before he found himself talking with the FIB Director, Ridar Riggs. Both had been disappointed with Sabo's desertion but knew it was probably for the best. Without the aide of a Deputy Director, Ridar began to rely on Robert for security advice and information regarding people of suspicion or unknown history. Robert would end up working a lot with Ridar, without officially being recognized as an agent of the Bureau. He introduced new security protocols, created a central database of all Falleen active service members including detailed information, and performed weekly communications checks ensuring the safety of the Federation.

Robert enjoyed serving in the Federation however as time went on he felt the leaders were not noticing the work he was doing to better the Federation and ultimately he began to feel alienated from his peers. The Executive court repeatedly denied the FIB Director's recommendation that Robert be transferred officially to the Bureau. However that was only the final straw, Robert had always wished to see higher protocol enforced in the military and certain standards defined and enforced

The Escape (Work-in-progress)

Late in Year 14 Robert resigned as Lieutenant Commander of the Falleen Protection Force while aboard his personal ship. A few days later he had arrived at Coruscant and turned himself over to agents of the Imperial Security Bureau stating he wished to defect to Galactic Empire. After being detained in a classified ISB facility for a three day debriefing, he was finally allowed to enlist in the Empire.
