Personal History

First Steps

In the heart of Coruscant's endless cityscape, the Takla family welcomed Aurren into the galaxy. His birth, under the perpetual twilight of urban lights, was celebrated as the dawn of a new era for Takla Trading. The family's home, a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, buzzed with the energy of a business that connected distant worlds through logistics and transport, yet remained a sanctuary of warmth and love.

Aurren's infancy was marked by his keen observation, his eyes following the dance of airspeeders and the distant gleam of departing starships. His parents, guardians of both a newborn and a burgeoning enterprise, nurtured his growing curiosity with stories of the galaxy's vastness and the intricate web of trade that bound it together. They spoke of Coruscant, not just as a planet of political power, but as the heart of galactic unity, where every culture, language, and dream found its place.

The Takla household was a microcosm of the galaxy's diversity, with visitors from far-flung systems bringing tales of exotic worlds, each story a seed planted in Aurren's imaginative mind. His early play involved models of freighters and starfighters, a tangible connection to the tales that enthralled him. His first words were not just babble but the names of distant planets, spoken with a clarity that surprised all.

Aurren's fifth birthday marked a significant milestone. It was celebrated with a party that mirrored a galactic fair, attended by family friends, business associates, and a few curious droids. The highlight was a holomap gift, displaying the known galaxy. That night, as Aurren traced the glowing paths of trade routes and imagined the ships traversing them, his parents watched, realizing that their son's destiny was intertwined with the stars themselves.

Lessons and Bonds

During his formative years, Aurren's parents, keepers of Takla Trading's legacy, were his first teachers, instilling in him values of hard work, integrity, and the importance of family. Aurren's intellect and curiosity flourished, but so too did his sense of responsibility, especially when it came to his siblings—or rather, the shadows of siblings he sometimes imagined playing in the corners of his room. The idea of brothers and sisters was a curious mix of longing and contentment in his single-child existence.

The first significant challenge of Aurren's young life came when he lost his favorite model starship, a gift from his Uncle Sal, who regaled Aurren with tales of adventure and valor within the Imperial Fleet. This model was more than a toy; it was a symbol of the dreams and aspirations that Aurren harbored within his young heart. Its loss during a bustling market day was a tragedy that struck deep, teaching Aurren his first harsh lessons in loss and the impermanence of material possessions. The incident sparked a deeper appreciation for the intangible bonds of family and the stories that connected them to the galaxy at large.

This period also marked the emergence of Aurren's leadership qualities. With or without siblings, he often found himself in the role of protector and guide among his peers, displaying a natural aptitude for leadership that didn't go unnoticed by his teachers and parents. His ability to navigate the complexities of childhood friendships and rivalries with empathy and fairness hinted at the great leader he was destined to become.

Shaping Destiny

As Aurren Takla navigated the turbulent waters of his early teenage years, his Uncle Sal emerged as a beacon of inspiration and guidance. Sal's sporadic visits from his duties in the Imperial Fleet brought tales of distant worlds and the intricate balance of power and diplomacy. These stories fascinated Aurren, providing a window into a life far removed from the commerce and trade of Coruscant.

Uncle Sal, recognizing Aurren's sharp intellect and boundless curiosity, began to mentor him. He introduced Aurren to basic navigation and the principles of starship engineering, turning their sessions into a cherished ritual. These lessons transcended the mechanics of space travel, instilling in Aurren a sense of purpose and a deeper understanding of the Empire's vastness and its challenges.

A pivotal moment came when Aurren, driven by a desire to make a mark on the galaxy, spearheaded a community project. It was a daring initiative to improve local infrastructure, demonstrating his potential as a leader and organizer. Sal's pride in Aurren's accomplishment was evident, reinforcing the bond between them and cementing Aurren's resolve to pursue a path that could change the galaxy for the better.

Yet, it was also a time of internal struggle for Aurren. The expectation to join Takla Trading loomed large, clashing with his growing ambition to carve out his own destiny. Uncle Sal became a confidant, offering wisdom that balanced ambition with the importance of roots and belonging. Through their conversations, Aurren began to envision a future where his actions could bridge the worlds of business and imperial service, leveraging his unique skills and insights for the greater good.

fIYJI0i.png Imperial Academy

In the shadowed depths of the Imperial Academy on Prakith, where ancient structures towered like silent sentinels of a bygone era, Aurren Takren found himself amid the crucible that would forge him into an officer of the Galactic Empire. The campus, a labyrinth of history and power, became his world, its halls echoing with the footsteps of those who sought to mold the future through discipline and might.

The Imperial Basic Training was rigorous, designed to strip away the individual and rebuild them as a paragon of efficiency and loyalty. Aurren, among his peers, faced challenges designed to test their limits and beyond. Each lecture, simulation, and drill pushed him closer to the ideal of an Imperial officer, but it was the strategy simulations that tested him most acutely.

Tasked with orchestrating a complex supply chain for a hypothetical military campaign, Aurren's decisions held the weight of virtual lives and the success of the operation. The watchful eyes of Instructor Titus Solomon, whose approval was as rare as it was coveted, were ever-present, adding pressure to the already daunting task. Solomon, a man of few words, commanded respect and fear in equal measure among the recruits, his approval a coveted badge of honor.

The simulation, however, took an unexpected turn with the introduction of pirate raids on the supply routes. A scenario introduced by Solomon to test adaptability, it sent Aurren's initial plans into disarray. As frustration mounted, the ticking clock of the simulation became a relentless adversary, each passing second a reminder of the dwindling time and his failing strategy.

In a moment of clarity, Aurren remembered a lecture on unconventional warfare tactics from the College of Space Warfare. With little time for hesitation, he shifted his approach, employing guerrilla tactics and decoys to mislead and deter the pirate threats. It was a risky maneuver, deviating far from the conventional strategies drilled into them by the Academy. Yet, it was precisely this unorthodox approach that Solomon sought in his students.

As the simulation concluded, Aurren awaited Solomon's judgment with a mix of dread and hope. The nod of approval he received was subtle, yet it filled him with a sense of accomplishment few other moments could match. It was a testament to his growth, his ability to think critically and adapt to the unpredictable nature of galactic conflicts. This moment, under the ancient spires of Prakith, marked a turning point for Aurren, embedding in him the values of flexibility and innovative thinking that would guide his career in the Empire.
