Early Years
Lasidious von Feldure was born on Y-15 D353 to an upper-middle class, aristocratic family on Dantooine. Lasidious had for centuries past been the name given to the second son born to the Feldure family, also had it been the tradition for one son to be in military service and one to shadow the father and manage the family estate. Lasidious's elder brother Kal lacked the courage to face the dangers of military action and regarded the military profession with the opinions that come only from a coward's point of view. So Lasidious entered the Imperial Academy, to the shame of his Father a lifelong fool and puppet who saw the Galactic Empire as a villainous burden on the galaxy. He was a fool of a Republican by choice, that was to Lasidious's shame.
Imperial Academy
Under the guise of "Von Pook" Feldure entered the Imperial Academy and was happy to do so for his mind was beginning to work; Throwing away the shackles of his past he was anxious to learn, to know, to get on, and to serve the Emperor. He devoured books, learnt the ancient galactic campaigns, embraced the Imperial mindset and soon became the talk of the class. He was admired, envied; He claimed he was conscious of his growing powers and admitted he enjoyed his superiority.

It was on the third month at the academy that he received the news that his father, the sole financial support of his youth, had died, killed in a local worker uprising. The galaxy had lost a rebellious old fool and Feldure's dull witted, cowardly brother had gained the family estate. From that day Feldure found himself dedicated beyond duty to the Empire, determined not to have such a pointless and naive life as his father and brother.
- "And now I am here, between stars, dreaming, and dissolving my melancholy in the full vent of Imperial service. To where will it take me today? Again to the verge of death? Still at the dawn of life, I must hope for many more days to come. It now feels a lifetime since I last saw my family, a parting that filled me with nothing but the greatest of joy. That was a time when I feared death, but now I do not, now I fear a life of failure. So what then drives me to not fear self-destruction? It is not through despair and a will to give-up because I'm lost in endless thoughts of the sufferings of life, no it is not, it is simple; death is inevitable, beyond our jurisdiction, so why not commit one's end to that of a greater cause? One that will live on when you are dust, and that is one reason why I will always serve the greatest of the Galaxy's causes, that of the Galactic Empire!
- I often wonder what spectacles await me when I return home, one spectacle of-course will be that of my family who will swiftly find themselves on their knees, laden with chains and kissing in fear the hand that strikes them!"
- — From Feldure's personal log as a FCPL

Feldure graduated from the Imperial Academy and was immediately transferred to the Imperial Navy as a Cadet. He was assigned to the Fifth Imperial Fleet under Commander Mayas Lennorian. As a TIE/ln pilot Feldure quickly cut his teeth in combat within the inner core systems, suppressing smugglers and enemy military recon units. Feldure took the initiative to protect his comrades as much as possible and provide a firm leadership to his squadron whenever possible and was soon raised to the Sergeant ranks. Leading up to day 300 of year 11 Feldure took it upon himself to offer a proposal to Naval High Command, a proposal that would quickly see him working closely alongside Naval High Command in developing the roles of flight sergeants within the Imperial Navy and formulating a codex that would expand the duties, positions and powers available to them, including new positions of "Career Sergeants". Although Feldure's finalised proposal met the approval of the Imperial Throne the project had to be cancelled only weeks away from instigation due to new military reforms brought in by the new regime under Emperor Cherokee.
As the regime of Emperor Bonias had finally crumbled, and after around a year of service to the Empire, Feldure was elevated to Ensign.
- "When you stand on the edge of the abyss with death staring you in the face, teeth glaring and the walls of fate closing in on you, choking you and offering no quarter, what will make you stand and fight a few moments more and not falter and run as the fear beckons you ever backwards, tempting and blinding you to not risk making that one ultimate sacrifice for the Empire?
- The Galactic Empire's greatest strength is no doubt its ready supply of talented and ruthless pilots whom serve the Empire with indefatigable loyalty, battling terrorists, warmongers, pirates and others whom threaten Galactic peace and prosperity. Being an Imperial fighter pilot means dedicating your life to that cause, to the Imperial Navy and to your brothers in arms. It is imperative for a fighter pilot to be clear of this, of his principles, his will to serve, and if needs beckon; to die in protecting the Empire and all it stands for. One could go as far to say only when you have truly embraced that into your body and soul are you ready to be an Imperial Fighter Pilot."
- — Feldure speaking to trainee fighter pilots, Y11.
On Year 12 Day 32 with great sadness, yet being carried by his strong will to fulfil a prosperous future in Imperial Navy, Feldure transferred from the Fifth Imperial Fleet to the 9th Assault Group of the 1st Imperial Fleet as a Capital Ship commander. The Fifth had been his home since graduating from the Imperial Academy. But with the determination to further his career and experience as an Officer and Commander, Feldure set forth. From that moment Feldure's career progressed swiftly as more opportunity opened up for him and he was recognised for it.
- "Ensign Feldure, in recognition of your performance both with your former unit and since you have joined the ranks of the First Imperial Fleet, Ninth Group and by personal recommendation of Lord Admiral Seele and Admiral Blackrain, I herewith promote you to the Rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. Congratulations, Lieutenant."
- — Captain Ascarion 9AG CO; Year 11 Day 312.
On Year 12 day 84 Feldure achieved his first command position when NCOMD appointed him as the new Executive Officer of the 5th Assault Group of the 4th Imperial Fleet.
- "The Empire expects great things of you; but will you be worthy of that trust? There are many more battles before you, more worlds to capture, more systems to liberate. You all burn to carry forward the glory of the Imperial Navy; to dictate a glorious peace; and to be able, when you return to your homes, to exclaim with pride: `I belonged to the glorious 5th Assault Group!´
- Pilots, that conquest, I promise, shall be yours; but there is a condition you must swear to observe: to respect, carry and inspire your brothers in arms; to follow your leaders with respect and without demurral, and to give your all to your unit.
- `Sentients of the Galaxy, the 5th Assault Group is here to break your chains; you may greet it with confidence. Upheavers and rebels toward progress and stability; hell has come to rain upon you!´"
- — Exert from LTjg Feldure's speech to the 5th Assault Group as the newly appointed GXO.
As his second tour of duty was coming to a closure and only a few weeks after his appointment as XO, Feldure, newly promoted to Lieutenant, was finally given command of the 5th Assault Group as LTCMDR Gentian stepped down. The placement made Feldure one of the most junior officers to achieve the honour to date.
- "You are in the midst of a conquest of which the effects upon the civilization and commerce of the Galaxy are incalculable. Each planet you meet will be relinquished of evil, fulfilled with prosperity and the usurpers of progress be punished for their weakness. The wisest, the most enlightened and the most virtuous will govern, and the people will be happy. But woe betide those who take up arms in favour of corruption and fight against us! There will be no hope for them; they will perish! We will teach them that it is easier to defy and to threaten us, than to defeat us!"

COMPNOR
Feldure working on the main Archive database. |
On Y12 D39 Feldure was personally requested by Vizier Vaan to evaluate the Imperial Archives in preparation for a reform that he would head. The Archives had fallen into a minor state of chaos; The database system had not been kept up to date to a high enough standard and had, itself, become outdated. Feldure alongside II Director Ventidius went about redesigning the main layout of the Archive database, ripping out the unnecessary elements that had developed over the years and replacing it with a far more concise and appropriate system for the modern Galactic Public.
On first accessing the database Feldure had discovered that a vast majority of Imperial historical events had been left undocumented or worse still had been doctored. Other articles were out of date or missing vital information. He went about correcting this, reprogramming the database's main information category and storage system and removing dysfunctional staff members and hiring new. With the help of various Imperial command members he was also able to recover some documents and holo-recordings that had fallen out of public hands and re-display them within the Archives. Other than documents and other data, artifacts slowly began arriving for display and storage in the Archives. The initial reform was a great success and Feldure was soon appointed Director of the Imperial Archives under the approval of Grand Vizier Jorus Taidan.
Feldure headed the Imperial Archives for several successful months until the opportunity arose to take on a higher position. On day 231 of year 12 Feldure was placed by the Grand Vizier at the head of the newly formed Imperial Information Service, the mass media department of the Galactic Empire.
Off-duty
Legionnaire's Arms Tavern
The Legionnaire's Arms Tavern (also known as the L.A.T or LAT) was won by Lasidious in a skilled game of Pazaak from a one eyed Duros spacer who's name remains unknown. On arriving at the Tavern in the Trax sector Lasidious discovered the Tavern to be in ruins and to be the location of several families of squatting Ewoks. After the exterminators had finished dealing with the vermin infestation and after many months of restoration and modern technical instillations the Tavern was brought to the grand standard that can be seen today. On year 11 day 122 the Tavern was named the Legionnaire's Arms and on day 123 opened to the Imperial Public.
The Legionnaire's Arms although an independent public Tavern is exclusively for members of the Galactic Empire the Imperial Union and Nationalized Factions. The Tavern is mainly run by and used by off-duty Imperials, and even in it's infancy has seen many famous faces pass through its doors.

An old picture in a new frame
On year 11 day 317 Lasidious threw away his assumed name of Von Pook and took on his true name and title. The reasoning for this sudden change yet remains publicly unknown.
