Jano Baskardi is a young Staff Member in the Regional Government of the Galactic Empire.

Early Life

Jano Baskardi grew up as the only child of a poor but ambitious family, living in the bowels of Coruscant's vast undercity. His mother and father had started a shop and a few other small businesses in an effort to escape the poverty and depredation of the area. Jano, their only child, was born shortly before the rise of the Empire and from the start his parents pinned all their hopes on him. Providing him with an education was challenging, but brought dividends as the boy showed some talent in mathematics and writing.

The household lived far below the galactic city's skyline and it was many years before Jano got a chance to see sunlight and stars; when he finally did visit the upper levels the boy was struck in wonder at the opulence of the city's structures, the vastness of the night sky and the great starships whizzing around between the two. His father told him stories of his now dead uncle, who had been a spacer in the outer rim for many years. All in all, the young lad couldn't wait to escape the misshapen rock that was the galactic capital.

In the CSF

Meanwhile the tyranny of undercity gangs led to repeated attacks on the family business, one of which led to his father losing an arm. Jano has ever since held a deep-seated hatred of injustice and chaos that made him a natural friend of the Imperial authorities. From an early age he would inform on gang activities to his friends in the local Coruscant Security Forces branch; seeing his childhood friends gradually turn to crime and violence to survive filled him with sadness, anger and an iron-cast determination to avoid falling into the same trap. As he grew older and finished his education, Jano worked as a part-time junior clerk in the branch. He later trained as a detective under the famous CSF Captain Kallak Tarr, under whose command he participated in a number of drugs busts against the illicit death sticks trade.

At 21, Jano decided he'd had enough of Coruscant, its crime, grime and poverty, and took his first tenuous steps into the galaxy at large. With a recommendation from the CSF, he applied at an Imperial recruitment branch and was accepted. His parents tried to discourage him from leaving, wondering how they would manage without his help and protection, but Jano insisted that he had no future at home. This disagreement did not hold Jano back: he set off for the Academy a few days later.

Imperial Career

The Academy

Jano hesitantly boarded the shuttle at the Coruscant starport, and found himself surrounded by a curious mixture of people. There were several others like him, who had escaped the grind of Undercity life- even a couple of hopeful class C aliens- but the majority were wealthy children of the urban elite. As he sat in the shuttle (and indeed for the rest of his stay at the academy), he heard them talk about a Coruscant he did not know; a Coruscant that they would actually miss. This didn't anger him in the slightest, as he knew he'd be one of the few recruits who didn't suffer from homesickness. Touching down at Prakith on Y17 Day 103, he was assigned to instructor Maulak Khaos for immediate basic training. Although overwhelmed by the opulence of the Academy, and the terror of his first trips into space, Jano found he was quite quick to grasp the fundamentals of Galactic history and Imperial law. Graduating with honours, Jano didn't hesitate in choosing his branch: Regional Government.

Assignment

Following graduation, the now Junior Superintendent Baskardi was contacted by superior officers and given transportation to his first assignment on the frontiers of Imperial space. He settled in to his new duties with great enthusiasm; acting as a judge, construction overseer and administrative official for various remote and fledgling colonies.
