Athrun Zala is a Lieutenant Commander in the Imperial Navy, currently serving as Commanding Officer of the Third Recon Group of the 4th Imperial Fleet. He was born on Coruscant to Patrick and Lenore Zala. His family was constantly on the move, so he saw many planets in his time growing up. He was sent to a military school at the age of 16, for his father had a bigger purpose in mind. Of course, Athrun had plans of his own; he enlisted in the Galactic Empire and enrolled in the Imperial Academy.

Biography
Life Before the Empire
Athrun was born to Patrick and Lenore Zala on the planet Coruscant. As his family did not remain there for more than 2 years, he never remembered the place until later visits.
His family was almost always on the move due to political and other reasons about which he was never really sure. It did not really bother him that much, because he always got to see new and different places.
When he was 16, his father decided to send him to a military school to train him to fight by his side in the years to come. So he left with his father, leaving his mother and sister behind. The two were forced to come back when the Rebellion engaged the Empire on Morvogdine. Unfortunately, they arrived too late; among the rubble that used to be their home, they found his mother's body and no sign of his sister. While Athrun blamed the Rebellion for their attack on the planet (his anger greatly exaggerated by their taking prisoners and slaves), his father blamed the Empire for being there in the first place, and was determined to bring the Empire to justice.
The relationship between him and his father became a touchy one. The two had little contact with each other and Athrun found school more pleasant to be in than his own house.
Athrun was 18 by the time they moved to the planet Thyferra. Most of the time he was off by himself, either working hard on his studies or spending some time with his friends. He came home one day and was surprised when his father asked him, no told him, to join the rebellion. Athrun declined, and it soon grew to a heated argument; the two of them left disgusted at the other.
It was not that long afterwards that the Rebellion deployed it's forces against the planet. Athrun was quite sure his father had somehow helped in this, and decided it would be best to leave. His father was no where around, so he took his father's personal ship and blasted off the planet. He barely escaped with his life, leaving the rebels at the doors of his house and dodging the rebel ships orbiting the planet. He flew to Coruscant, a place where he knew the rebels would dare not attack. He had already decided to join the Empire, so he immediately entered into the Imperial Academy.
Athrun was wrong in assuming that he had left his rebel father behind; his father had followed him and finally caught up with him. He had just left the academy doors when his father confronted him. They had a rather heated argument, which ended in hateful, bitter words, "You are no son of mine. You will die, like the rest of the Empire scum!" Athrun barely avoided his father's blaster shots, which brought the Stormtroopers to investigate. His father was arrested on the spot. That was the last Athrun ever saw of his father.

Character Description
Appearence
Athrun is 6 feet in height, with a medium build customary for Naval pilots. His hair is black, a little longer than a normal military crop. He has green eyes that are friendly in appearance to most, but can cast a piercing gaze towards anyone who incurs his wrath. He has a scar caused by a dagger, running from his hairline to his jaw.
On duty, he wears his green naval uniform, complete with a matching cap and black gloves. He always has a standard issue naval pistol in a holster at arm's reach, with a small sheathed vibroblade on the opposite side. When not on duty, he is almost always wearing his uniform, with or without his cap and gloves, and always his weapons. Rarely is he seen in civilian clothes.
