Biography
Parents background
His father, Patrick Martin Snr., had served in the Old Republic Navy as a fighter pilot during the Clone Wars before joining the Royal Hapan Navy and his mother, Kristina Farrin, served on a passenger transport within the Hapes Cluster. Both of his parents were Hapan. They met when Patrick Snr.'s squadron was assigned to escort Kristina's transport. His father retired from the navy before becoming an officer. And after getting married his parents setup their own transport business.
Early Life
Patrick was born in the city of Haporium on the planet Hapes. He was born in the Year -13 to father Patrick Snr. and mother Kristina. Patrick was their first child. It wasn't until four years later, year -9 that his sister Nico was born.
As a child he was very unruly, he caused his parents alot of headaches. Patrick was a good student, apart from his tendency to distract other children with stories of his fathers Old Republic adventures. He was a shy child and found it hard to make friends, especially with the opposite sex. His bestfriend was Mark Coyle, they met when they were 7 years old. Patrick had flying in his blood and loved to play onboard his parents' ships when not in school. And by his early teens his skills as a pilot were quite impressive. Patrick and his bestfriend Mark Coyle were often caught "borrowing" a pair of his father's fighter esorts.
Teens Years
While his piloting skills were impressive and it was in his family Patrick didn't have becoming a pilot at the top of his career aspirations. He also enjoyed the administrative and business side of the company. His parents' transport buisness dealt in high value goods, expensive equipment, passengers in need of security. They used three Bayonet Class Cruisers and three squadrons of Y-Wings as well as a few small shuttles. His plans were to go on to study business, probably accounting, get a job in the Government as an Auditor or something similar and then when his father got old and retired he would take over the family business. Even still he found little time for the opposite sex, focusing rather on his studies and work.
Things don't always go the way they are planned. Shortly before his 20th birthday his father took on their companies most high profile and most dangerous job to date. An important Hapan weapons trader need to head to the Outer Rim for an arms deal. His father was to transport the business man, his staff and a shipment of their weapons. The entire fleet would be used. Unfortunately the weapons dealer had made a deal with the wrong people. Shortly after arrival the fleet came under attack. Although well armed they were no match for the verteran pirate pilots and their larger numbers. By the time Imperial patrol reached the site the pirates had gone, along with the weapons, and all those onboard his parents' ships were killed. It was only by luck that Patrick had failed one of his exams and had to miss this trip, sadly his younger sister was with his parents.
Patrick gave up his business career and joined the Royal Hapan Navy. However while in training he soon realised they would never put him in a position to right the wrongs of the galaxy, to be able to prevent another child losing their parents, to make a difference. He gave in his resigation and left Hapan space. He headed for the Imperial Academy. His life long friend, Mark Coyle, would not be accompanying him as he had married young.
Adult Life
Patrick has served in the Imperial Navy since he was twenty and for the forseeable future it will stay that way.
Imperial Service
Patrick Martin has been in the service of the Empire for one year and four months. Joined Empire on day 81 in the year 8. There weren't many Hapans in the Academy during this time. Patrick became a student of Professor Valoran and it wasn't long he began to feel at home around his fellow recruits. Imperial service life suited him well. Patrick graduated from the Academy just short of the honours list with a final score of 93%. This disappointed him but he was never the less proud of his score.
He entered service with the Navy and his first assignment was to the 1st Imperial Fleet under the then Commander Axe Vulcan. It wasn't long before he saw action. The 1st Fleet took part in the campaign to defend the Darpa sector from a rebel assault. The 1st Fleet was successful. Seeing fellow pilots die in combat woke the young pilot up, his green days were over. He was promoted twice in quick succession first to Crewman FC and then to Flight Corporal. He also received a commendation along with the rest of 1st Fleet for their efforts in defending Darpa.
Before he was six months in active service he was promoted again, this time to Flight Sergeant. Shortly after he was presented with a "Letter of Commendation" by then Captain Axe Vulcan. Receiving his six month duty bars would be the last thing he would get while with the 1st. Soon after this the Imperial Navy restructured and new fleets were formed. As a result Patrick was given a new assignment.
As this assignment is his current fleet, information on it is classified. However Patrick has continued to excel in his role as a Fighter Pilot and has had some taste of command, receiving a commendation for his proficient command of a fighter wing. He has since had six promotions and is currently a Command Flight Officer.

- Crewman FC
- Flight Corporal

Sports Initiatives
On Year 9 Day 113, the Imperial Ministry of Operations announced the creation of the Imperial Gaming Commission. Deputy Minister and Sith Lord Kiger Wulf was announced as the Director with Major Bacara Kex working as the Deputy Director. Patrick joined the Imperial Gaming Commission and soon began work on various different Bolo-Ball projects. The first was a small Imperial member only league. This had relatively good success.
Financial Support
Using his own personal wealth and the money raised through his company, Auvasa Corp., Patrick has been in a good position to help the Empire expand. When the Imperial Outer Rim Authority was expanding into the Elrood sector Patrick raised a large credit fund to help pay for the construction of cities across the planet Dega. This investment was paid back to Patrick along with a profit. On day 124 of year 9 to honour his support for the expansion and stabilizing of this sector a statue of Patrick Martin was unveiled in the city of Dega along with others to those that also helped.
Private Ambitions
With his ever growing wealth Patrick has set about increasing his personal power and influence.
Personal Fleet
Patrick has begun to build his own private fleet having already sold the one he inherited. He has so far only had the time to acquire two fighters, one Alpha-3 Nimbus and one Arc-170, bought of which types his father had flown during his time in the Old Republic. These are his prize posessions.
Planet Developement
For a brief period Patrick Martin was the ruler of the planet Douglas VI in the Centrality sector. However with the Douglas system quickly changing hands to a new government Patrick knew he had neither the wealth nor the security forces to keep control of it. Control of the planet was handed over for a large sum of credits.
Patrick when turned his attention towards developing desolate Imperial worlds into thriving population centres. He has so far yet to begin a project.
Auvasa Corp.
Along with best friend Mark Coyle Patrick setup the financial company Auvasa Corp. on day 95 of year 9. The goal of the company was to offer investment opportunties and general accounting services to people across the galaxy. The company's first project was done in partnership with the Imperial Outer Rim Authority. However when this project ended early it was decided Auvasa Corp. would stop offering services to the public until the company was better organised and in a position to run its own projects.
