Early Life

Bael Serath was born in the Outer Rim. The descendant of a proud Mandalorian family, Bael's lineage can be traced back hundreds of years. His father, Ba’al, is a Mandalorian Warlord and commander of a mercenary army. He never knew his mother, and his father does not speak of her, nor much of his past. Growing up, Bael only knew that his father, for a time, had left their people. When he returned, he had gained considerable experience in warfare and used that knowledge to form of potent mercenary army. They always stayed away from larger, more populated systems, preferring to smaller, independent worlds. His father did not seem to care for any unnecessary attention.

At the age of four, Bael witnessed his first battle from his father’s forward observation camp, watching his father and his men fight. He watched men die, watched his father kill. From this point forward, Bael was taught to be a soldier, first one on one with his father and later, when he came of age, he was drilled alongside his father’s troops. His father was a hard taskmaster, but his troops had gained a reputation as among the best mercenaries in the sector, with an impression record of success.

When he was old enough and had received the proper training, Bael began to fight in his father’s company. During one excursion, Ba’al’s troops were relieved by a company of Imperial Stormtroopers. Their precision and discipline impressed Bael, rivaling that of his father’s troops, but it was their sense of purpose, a higher calling that captivated the young soldier, a calling that life as a mercenary could not compare to. While the Mandalorians were fractured and divided, the Imperials war machine was conquering, ruling, and bringing order to the galaxy.

Bael made the decision to join the Imperial Army. Most in his father’s camp resented the decision, and even his father told him it was a poor choice, that he would not find what he sought within the Imperial ranks. Bael countered, asking him what he, a mercenary who fought for profit could possibly know what it was that he sought. It was then that he learned something unexpected of his father.

His father took him to a bunker hidden under their home. There, his father should him various Imperial uniforms. He had been a general in the Imperial Army in another life, under a different name, but had grown disillusioned with the direction the Empire took and left, taking the training he had received and returned to the Mandalorians. He served as a mercenary for many years before he ultimately formed his own mercenary company, comprised not only of Mandalorians but others who had wanted to forge a new path. Ba’al told his son he understood the impulse to join the Imperials, that he, too, believed in the Imperial ideals. But those days were done.

Despite his father’s words, Bael still felt this was something he had to do. Ba’al would not stand in his son’s way, but he did not support his Bael’s decision. Further, he cautioned his son not draw attention to his parentage. Bael received enough credits to take him to an Imperial starport, where he could find an Army recruiter. Bael left.

Imperial Service

Stormtrooper

Bael made his way to Imperial space and enlisted in the Imperial Army as a stormtrooper and, ultimately, an Advanced Recon Trooper. Bael excelled. The training he had received among his father’s company, coupled with his natural physicality and talents, made Bael a standout. It was not long before Bael’s skill was noticed by his commanders, who felt his skills could be of use elsewhere in the Empire. Bael was screened and ultimately selected to attend the Imperial Academy.

The Imperial Academy

Bael was transported to Prakith to start his training to become an Imperial Officer.
