Reese Beoulve
- "Why, wouldn't you wear one if you could?"
- — Reese answering to a question about his helmet.
A mysterial figure that is seen through the military ranks of the Imperial Navy. Very little is known of Reese from before he has joined the Galactic Empire. Always wearing his very characteristic helmet, which covers part of his face, Beoulve is very closed when it comes to speaking of himself, however, a very charismatic and talkative corellian. Holding the rank of Master Flight Sergeant and just in the beginning of his career, Reese is distinguished by his outstanding performance in combat flight situations, what is easily noticed by his skill at flying Fighters.
Biography
Pre-Empire life
Reese Beoulve is his full name, and possibly his family surname. Nothing in depth is know of this person since his entrance and acceptation into the Imperial Academy. Always wearing his characteristic helmet, Reese is seems to be a very young person, judging by his height, physicals and appearance. Commonly wearing his Imperial Navy formal vests, Reese is a charismatic person who possibly would engage in hours of conversations with any given person, however, at the same time he never speaks of himself with anyone. Usually when this topic comes into discussion, he evades it with a polite joke about the given question.
Before the time where Reese entered the Imperial Academy building to enlist himself to its military ranks, for certain is known that he was already familiarized with ships. His skills at piloting Fighter ships in combat environment are with no doubt his most distinguish characteristics. The young Corellian, during his academy courses out-graded all of his fellow Imperial recruits when it came to pilot practicing, and probably this was some reason that explains his honor graduation.
While still living at the Corellian planet, the information about this pilot in the Imperial records are very few. There are no records of Reese participating in any battle before his acceptance, neither of him having joined any ship formation before. His name seems to have came in topic for a very few times only in the Corellian records, what make it thinks that indeed he was not a shining person before joining the Empire. For himself, he never speaks of those times, but with a smile and his unmatched politeness, he avoids the conversation usually with an ironic joke.
By researching about what can be gathered together when it comes to information, Reese seemed to live in the capital city of the planet, without any record of fellonies neither his name showing up in any public documentary or news. The Beoulve surname also never showed up before, and no relatives of him could be located to be questioning about this person. His identities and doccuments, however are official and double checked.
Reese infact, as it seems, has lived his whole life before joining the Galactic Empire as a civillian which has no shinning moment, or if he did, its completely omited from the public knowledge. He used to live in an appartment, a regular one, in the center of the Corellian capital. Reese has attended to the regular school in his childhood, even though the registry of his parents are unknow. With regular grades at it, he completely seemed to be nothing but a normal person who lived as a civillian.
Possibly the only personal objects that Reese brough with himself when he came into the Imperial Academy was a hand-drawn paiting, that he keeps with himself in the personal quarters of the Imperial Navy, where now he seems to live.
Academic Courses
With the approximate age of 17 years old, the young masked civillian has entered for the first time the Imperial Academy building. Having with himself nothing but one box of belongings and the strange helmet that covered half of his face, nothing seems to be strange to that person. Upon enlisting, only the required information and background checking made was answered. Just the nescessary information was given, and then, accepted.
During the first days of attending to the Academy, Reese seemed to be just another Imperial aspiring to the military machine of the Empire. At first he had no specific characteristic of his own besides the helmet, that he refused to remove all the time. Being just another person in the classes for some days, his name was indeed obscured by all the body built Army aspiring that had perfect grades in self-defenses, or the cunning minds that solved many engeniering problems. Reese, however, wasn't a negative in those aspects, he was just a standard person.
This posture lasted two months, and by that time he made no friend within the Recruits, just exchanged some words with the now Crewman Pak Gjin, since both of them came from Corellia. By time of two months studies, it was the time for the classes to flight in simulations. The ship oriented lectures came, and by that time was when Reese came to be known by the tutors. In the first day of attending to the lessons, Reese brought down half of his class ships alone, and the rest of them in group dogfights. Up until that day, it was almost a record broken by the first day of simulators.
Since that day Reese Beoulve was a relatively heard name within the Academy, and the Tutors indeed seemed to have saw a promising pilot into that masked person. The time has passed, and the grades, rose along with his performance in the flights. Reese was above the standard in the written lessons, this, because he spent most of his free time in the library, where with his personel datapad provided by the Academy he read again and again about the Empire itself and many other topics. At the flying and ship-wise exercises however, he was a shinning star.
Even though being a very reclusive young person, Reese almost all the time kept a serene expression from it could be seen from behind his mask, or a small smile. He was polite beyond the situation, and it was hard to belive that someone could bring him to a bad mood or angry, for he was very calm. His numbers and grades during the ship lessons always was rising, and that came to attention to the tutors, that even though rising the challenges proposed in the classes, had surprises out themselves when it came to the corellian pilot.

By the end of the academic courses, Reese was either admired by some, and hated by the most. He was the oposite of a popular person, because being so reclusive and polite at the same time unfortunatly gave him a very arrogant looking, even so, he never meant to be. His grades caused envy of some, and those who congratulated him, were received with a very short conversation, an enjoyable one. By the end of the courses Reese was very busy, and that brough an end to those long and charismatic conversations that he used to have with the others, because he was aware that the graduation was soon, and even though he has already the grades to be graduated into the Navy, he wanted a little more.
Beoulve's reasons are very unknown, but with a strange fervour and dedication, the pilot was chasing an honor graduation with such ambition that could scare someone. Spending days and nigths reading and practicing, re-reading and preparing himself, finally the day of the final assignment has came to him. For some, it wes a surprise, for others, a bad moment of anger, but for Reese it was the Honor Graduation that he has earned.
The podium speech of the masked person could be remarkable for the Acadmy history, because most of the audience was staring at him with some anger, while the minory was staring at his mask and wondering why would he be wearing it. Without speaking much, Reese just stated that he was proud to heading to the Navy. No one was thanked, or mentioned during his speech, and shortly he left the podium back to his quarters.
Arrogance. That was the word that many recruits was associating to Reese, but it was innevitable out of him. He was too closed for speaking with anyone, and that charisma along with the distant relation that he shared with some, was easily described as arrogance. Reese, for himself, never seemed to be concerned with that. Upon the graduation party, which Reese also attended to wearing his helmet, it was the time for him to depart to the assigned unit from the Imperial Navy.
Proudly wearing his new Navy Uniform and the rank of Flight Corporal along with his award of the Imperial Academy Honors Graduation, his helmet was the without a doubt the most characteristic trait of him.
Imperial Service
Right after graduating into the Imperial Navy, Reese was assigned to a unit from its fleets. It was probably the happiest moment of his recorded life. Bringing along with him only a hand-drawn painting and his helmet, which he never removed in public, he already engaged in the Military life with actually quite a pace. During his first moments in the Military Ranks of the Navy, and upon reading his academic records it was clear that some authorities has came to have an eye or two towards the Corellian, since his skills in the cockpit was "Outstanding", as described by the Lord Admiral Senki Blackrain.
With mot of his assignments being classified, little is recorded by the young career that Reese is having at the Navy, but among them is obviously his quick award that he has earned during a drill training operation of his unit. Supervised by the Navy Command itself, Reese's unit has been engaged into some combat practices, which the young corellian was very used to, and known for. Nothing too much was expected from that person. His name was not very heard by those in his unit, and being a pilot who was wearing a helmet-mask, it was very little to be expected.
Surprising even his own commanding officer, Reese managed to score 38 ships destroyed. It was an unmatched score for that particular practicing operation, and probably a new milestone for its pilots. That has came to attention of the Lord Admiral himself, who rewarded his performance with the Exercise Achievement Medal. With a short smile, typical of him and a deep saluting the Flight Corporal received the medal completely proud of himsef. As usual, with little expression and emotion as very expected for those who already knew him.
While his young career is still ongoing, there is no more records of his services in the Imperial Navy that can be accessed. His services, however, are still in proces up to this date, and soon the profile of Reese Beoulve is to be updated.
Medals and Awards
Imperial Academy Honors Grade
During the very end of his academic courses, Reese managed himself to rise his standard grades to a point where distinguishing himself of the others was just a matter of time. Spending completely all of his free time in his quarters or in the library of the Academy, the young Corellian pilot have studied hours and hours of texts and doctrines from the Galactic Empire and his sutdies from the galaxy itself surrounding the topics of the classes.
During the whole year of classes, Reese kept his grades above the standard of the fellow pilots, and that was clear to guess since while many ofthe recruits spent their times in the Cantina, or playing sports at the dedicated area of the bulding, Reese, as a very reclusive person at first look, was almost living in the library and the hangar of the ships. That wasn't an option for him, however. While Reese never inteded to make many friends in the Academy, he wasn't complaining of the reclusion he found himself at, instead, he enjoyed it because he has more time to learn about what was of his interest.
The main point however of this high score he could achieve through the Academy wasn't mainly due to his written tests, but for his piloting skills. Even though its unknown the source of his abilities in the cockpit, certain is its effect. Reese was completely very skilled when it came to fly a ship in a combat environment, and possibly he held the most impressive record for an individual pilot that year in the Academy.
This feat of him, and his obcessive will to earn the Honors grade that he was having during the last part of his courses, made it only possible for him to be graduated with this ribbon on his chest.
Exercise Achievement Medal
This is probably one of the most distinguishing medal that could be earned by Reese during his early career experiences. The Exercise Achievement Medal was granted to the pilot, by the Lord AdmiralSenki Blackrain himself after the first combat exercise that Reese participated.
While it was just a training exercise within the unit where Reese served at, he made it clear what to expect from the pilot in the battlefield. The practicing consisted of a death match training piloting Fighter ships with non-lethal weaponry. Among his unit, that was participating as a whole, Reese could manage to score 38 destroyed ships, beating the whole unit, including his Executive Officer and Commanding Officer in the process.
That feat, at least form himself will be remembered by the rest of his career, but immortalized by the medal that the masked pilot wears proudly in the chest of his uniform. The moment after the training, the Lord Admiral himself has stepped into the room to congratulate the whole unit for their performance in the given situation, but awarded Reese with the medal. It was a surpise for himelf, but as usual, a very disciplined reaction of him was given: A smile, and a deep saluting the Lord Admiral infront of him.
Mentioned in Dispatches
During an patrol exercise within the Carrier Group where Reese served, a sudden drill training has been prompted. Attacked by another group in an ambush, Reese's formation was patrolling a nearby system when the alert came out that the comrades has been under attack from the fleet mates in the training. As soon as the information has been received, the command of the group promptly sent out the order for responding to the threat immediatly.
With a more than swift action, the group where Reese served have moved to the ambushed system in order to defend the carrack that has been there in a patrol mission. The movement could be described as an space lightning, since the speed in which it has been accomplished gave little chance of reaction from the attacking team. After a single assaulting run against the unprepared vessels, Reese and a fellow pilot managed to wipe out an entire squadroon of TIE/Sa Bombers there stationed. In responce to that, the attacking group called an retreat.
In the next few days the words of such swift action from the group has spread through the fleet, and needless to say that it came to the ears of the Lord Admiral and Navy Command in their reports. In that situation, during the next Naval Monthly Meeting, the whole group has been awarded the Mentioned in Dispatches award, meaning that their names and feats has been topic of recognition during the reports for that month.
