Biography
Born on Coruscant to parents Jacques de Molay and Marie Claire de Molay, Navarro de Molay was a middle class citizen. He attended school at the local elementary, and was raised by both his parents until the age of 16, when his father was killed by a Rebel insurgency team. Navarro had few other relatives, and was very close to his father. He had learned many things from Jacques, especially about his father's way of life as Mandalorian Neo-Crusader.
Navarro de Molay training with fellow Neo-Crusaders |
Jacques de Molay was a member of a recently resurging group of Neo-Crusaders who fought for an ancient order of Mandalorians. This group of religious warriors fought to overthrow the Republic, in favor of a more direct government. After the birth of the Empire, Jacques was the leader of one of the group's warrior battalions, and routinely took soldiers on raids against diplomatic embassies who publicly supported the Rebel movement who, in turn, supported a return of the Republic. During one of these raids, Jacques' team was ambushed by Rebel forces, and the entire group slain. This event, recorded in full holo, by Rebel barbarians was then distributed to the rest of the Neo-Crusader movement, and deeply scarred Navarro. He vowed revenge, and began training to take his father's place.
Before he could do so, however, the group's base was discovered and destroyed by Rebel terrorists, forcing the survivors to give up their quest, and disband. Navarro, fueled with rage directed at the Rebel scum, decided to join the Empire. He decided his talents would be best put to use in the Imperial Army; his father had taught him many skills befitting an infantrymen and soldier. Navarro used these skills during training and quickly showed great potential as an Imperial soldier.
Soldiers of 6th Brigade including CPT De Molay and CPT Montari taken during Operation Sovereign Canopy |
Navarro was assigned to the 6th Brigade, one of the two brigades attached to the 3rd Legion, and his devotion to his unit was soon recognized and rewarded when he was appointed the executive officer of his brigade. Not long after, the 3rd Legion was deployed to Derra IV for Operation Sovereign Canopy. Engagements against the forces of the Galactic Alliance were fierce and highly contested, the enemy having had substantial preparatory time to develop a deliberate defensive position within the primary urban locations on the planet. The 9th Alpha Infantry Company, under 1st Lieutenant de Molay's command, suffered notably fewer losses than expected for an infantry company in a fierce warzone, and even those setbacks were tempered by the achievements they made against enemy forces, including engaging and neutralizing several known senior Alliance combatants. Navarro proved his dedication and valor in the face of great adversity and was appropriately honored for it. He received a field promotion to Captain, and the 3rd Legion was awarded the Unit Distinguished Service for consistently distinguishing themselves in their actions on Derra IV, accomplishing great strides in combat against an entrenched enemy with superior numbers and the Battle Efficiency Medal for demonstrating highly effective and efficient skills in the advance to contact, engagement, and withdrawals involving enemy combatants during several combat engagements on Derra IV. He was later awarded the Imperial Campaign Medal with a Bronze Star Device for his efforts during Operation Sovereign Canopy. After Major Tyrren Montari transferred over to Imperial Intelligence, Captain de Molay succeeded him as the commander of the 6th Brigade.
Appearance
Standing at 178 cm and weighing 78 kg, Navarro de Molay is of generally average height and weight for his world of birth and species. He is very fit from his military training, and makes an effort to stay healthy. He has brown hair, which he keeps cut to a moderate length. His eyes are a dark brown, similar to both his mother and father. Navarro has no distinguishing marks or scars, however he is known to wear his Neo-Crusaders cross at all times; a memento he was given by his father shortly before leaving on his final raid.
Since the day his father perished, Navarro has taken to wearing a white mask with black facial features, and facial hair. The mask was his father's, and is an abstract representation of Jacques' face. It was customary for Neo-Crusaders to wear such masks when performing actions upon their targets to partially conceal their identity, and to strike terror into the hearts of their enemies.
