Compassion was not a virtue well known to Aquilus Sicarius; in fact it was doubtful he knew how to spell the word. Instead he was a man driven by greed and lust. He was wrapped so tightly within his own world that he failed to pay much attention to any of those around him.

It is unknown when Balseraph entered Imperial service. He quickly rose through the ranks of the Imperial Army, eventually becoming General and Commanding Officer of the Army.

He was a tall and well built man, and carried a number of scars on his body and face from many scraps he had gotten into due to his ‘job’. Aquilus was a small time spice dealer on Coruscant, more specifically the Coruscant Underlevels where he lived. His life was one of alcohol, spice and sex, he lived life as it came at him, and he found that the selling of spices earned him a good cut of credits. Also, with the overpopulated lower levels and the addictive qualities of spice, business was always booming. He was part of a much larger narcotic ‘market’ which was a well-known problem in the Underlevels.

When Suntzu claimed the Imperial Throne after the First Imperial Civil War, in which Captain Vodo Bonias turned his fleet against Emperor Hiram Drayson and forced him to flee, Bonias was instated as Moff. During Suntzu's short reign, General Balseraph accused Moff Bonias of encouraging the new Emperor to enact policies which favored the Imperial Navy over the Army. After openly accusing Suntzu of incompetence, Balseraph was exiled.

Aquilus would get his hands on the spice and mix it with other materials in order to make sure he could optimize his sales and rake in as much money as possible. The CSF were utterly useless in the lower levels and avoiding them proved extremely easy, allowing him a happy life full of healthy amounts of credits.

Giovanna Lyome was one of Aquilus’ regulars as of late. She was younger than Aquilus, just shy of twenty in comparison to the dealer who was in his mid thirties. She had recently lost her job on the higher levels due to the habit she’d picked up in her teens, one which had led her to being kicked out of the educational system at the age of seventeen. Her parents were shamed by her expulsion and her addiction; they kicked her out and forced her to live life without the comforts and safety net of their financial baking. She had tried to kick the habit, she was determined to change, she found a job and a place to rent that was cheap and decent enough to live in. But times were never easy and when they got hard she fell back into her old habits. Eventually it led to her losing a job and left her unable to find anything else even half-decent on the upper levels. She was soon kicked out of her apartment. In her position there was only one way to go, down. from rival gangs, not to mention the lethal, watchful eye of the Syndicate itself.

She descended to the Underlevels of Coruscant where rent was cheaper, but so was the pay. She managed to find a little something, watering at a local cantina for what shifts she could. But down at the bottom of the pile she held very little drive and soon the habit had consumed her life completely.

Aquilus was a local dealer and Giovanna quickly found that his prices were reasonable and his contraband was strong enough to satisfy her cravings. However, she found herself spending more and more as the effects lessened over time. This quickly led her to a tricky financial situation. She was already at the bottom of the pile, was there any further she could go? There was.

In her desperate state she appealed to one of Aquilus’ obvious desires, lust. She struck up a deal with Aquilus; she would pay a percentage less for her purchases in exchange for sex. Aquilus, confident his ‘business’ could easily continue without this small cut from the prices of one junkie, agreed to Giovanna’s offer. They soon began their ‘relationship’, each time they would both hit themselves up with anything decent Aquilus had at the time. It was during one of these times, their minds thrown completely off course by the spice, which they forgot the contraception they would usually have used. A child was accidentally conceived in a small dank room in the Underlevels of Coruscant, they were Vidar’s parents, a junkie willing to use her body to pay for some of her habit and the dealer who was all too willing to receive her trade. It was not a match made in heaven.

Diablirus Balseraph

Diablirus_Balseraph_Portrait.png

It is unknown when Balseraph entered Imperial service. He quickly rose through the ranks of the Imperial Army, eventually becoming General and Commanding Officer of the Army. He was a man of principles and believed firmly in what the Galactic Empire stood for. This often brought him in conflict with the first Emperors, who often lacked self-control and a sense of morality.

When Suntzu claimed the Imperial Throne after the First Imperial Civil War, in which Captain Vodo Bonias turned his fleet against Emperor Hiram Drayson and forced him to flee, Bonias was instated as Moff. During Suntzu's short reign, General Balseraph accused Moff Bonias of encouraging the new Emperor to enact policies which favored the Imperial Navy over the Army. After openly accusing Suntzu of incompetence, Balseraph was exiled. A brief conflict erupted between troops loyal to the General, and the forces of Bonias, who proved to be too powerful and defeated the exiled officer, forcing him into hiding.

He joined forces with Hiram Drayson, who had revealed himself to be a Sith Lord after his defeat at the hands of Vodo Bonias. The banished Emperor had created the Order of Darkness, an organisation consisting of his fellow Sith and Imperial officers who rejected the rule of Suntzu. The General taking his most loyal officers with him, the ranks of the Order grew once more. Around the same time, Admiral Dyvel Price and one of her officers, Evax, defected from the Empire as well, believing Spytek was weak and merely a puppet of Bonias. They stole several Star Destroyers, giving the Order the firepower it needed to pose a threat to the current ruling Emperor.
