Early Life

Born in Tatooine to a simple family, Joao found himself helping in his parents’ shop from an early age. The basic goods they sold, while not luxurious, were sturdy and dependable, so the place was always full.

Living on a happy family meant the world to him. While being quiet, he was regarded as an intelligent and promising boy by his parents and peers. When Verek was not supervising the shop, he made sure that the boy learned the basic skills to inherit the business, someday.

When The Empire was established, the family was relieved. Conflict was over and peace could be a part of life, again. If only.

One day, after seeing the recruitment posters on Tatooine, Joao set his eyes on an AT-AT. It was the beginning of a passion that would guide his future.

Unfortunately, the Rebellion took it’s toll on the Apa family. On Y10D50, the store was the target of a terrorist bombing. Emylia and Verek were killed, as were most of the customers present at the moment. The young man was making a supply run and returned to find the dead bodies of his loving family. Disgruntled with the planet and filled with hatred and grief, he took shelter on a friend's place while gathering the resources and the basic skills to join the rightful government of the galaxy.

Imperial Life

Imperial Academy

Joining the Academy, Apa realized that he was not alone, anymore. The Imperials became his family while he was preparing to join the Army. During his training, he fulfilled his teenage dream of piloting an AT-AT, showing a lot of skill. Clearly, he was meant to join the Armoured Corps of the Army.

He graduated the Academy in Y10D153.

Imperial Army

Joining the First Legion, he proved himself skilled with vehicles and a very dependable asset to his comrades, delivering strategical blasts with his E-11 rifle and showing no mercy to the enemies of order and justice. He also loved to race with his squadmates on their free time, providing fun and a morale boost on the ever busy life of the troops. His obligations, from simple tasks like helping fellow troopers in patrol simulations to aiding in building and mining operations, granted him a sense of fulfillment and the recognition of the superiors. He rose through the ranks with dedication and diligence.

With the reorganization of the legions into smaller brigades, Joao was appointed briefly as the 6th Brigade CO. However, affected with the RL disease, he couldn’t really assume the responsibility. It wouldn’t be the first time that the disease would render him out of combat, sadly. The disease striked him several times. On Y14D74 he was stricken, interrupting his duties for more than a year. Returning to the 3rd Legion, he resumed the activities briefly, including during an operation to take back a planet on the Weemell system. The second time, it came back way worse, slipping him in a coma that lasted from Y15D294 to Y17D35. Recovering from the disease, Apa immediately returned to the Army, this time, to help the 2nd Legion in assuring that no children will have to suffer the same pain as he did. The disease appeared again in Y17D240 until Y18D221, from Y18D343 to Y20D170 and from Y20D286 until Y24D212. Fortunately, the geniuses in the Imperial Medical Facilities developed a vaccine to treat such conditions and, after an extensive experimental program and and even harder physical reconditioning training, Apa recovered and rejoined his comrades in the Army once again.

Scum, anarchists, agitators and rebels, beware: he is on a mission and he will not stop until the Empire reigns supreme.

Wordly possessions

Dedicating his adult life to the extinction of the Empiree's enemies, Apa didn’t really spent all his money in women and fast ships. Between the battlefields and the medical centers, he amassed a small mercenary taskforce, a medical frigate ( “Just in case the damn disease gets back again!”, he was quoted), a small fighter for transportation and a garage. For safehousing and base of personal operations, he acquired a Trading Station on Y17.
