Description and Personality

Born on Coruscant, Santiano Salazar is an adult Coruscanti male, 23 Years old. He is of average human height [1.524 meters] and weight [86.36 Kgs] Santiano has black hair and brown eyes. Because he is Coruscanti and grew up in the galactic capital. He speaks Basic with the typical Coruscanti Inflection. His personality is quiet but friendly, at least to those he considers to be comrades.

Santiano is a fervent Imperial. His upbringing and education have lead him to become an almost fanatical Imperial loyalist who believes whole-hearted in what the New Order stands for. Being born in the closing days of the old republic and being a witness to the rise of the New Order. Santiano, though young, was able to see the positive changes this New Order was bringing to the galaxy. Embracing this new Empire was something his entire family did and has lead him to become the man he is today.

Santiano Salazar has several past times which he enjoys, one is gambling. Due to his cautious nature, Santiano does not take many risks. However, Santiano has found that through certain games of chance such as Sabacc and others, he is able to feel the same sort of rush one might get from more extreme ventures like speeder bike racing. Over the years Santiano has become a rather experienced amateur gambler.

Another Past time Santiano has enjoyed is the study of galactic political history. Santiano was privately educated by tutors and it is during this time that he became interested in history. Along with his own personal experience witnessing the fall of a republic and the birth of an Empire has lead him to take a keen interest in the political history of the galaxy. Due to his private education Santiano is also able to speak Huttese.


Before Imperial Service

Childhood

Santiano was born the only son of Anton and Imzadi Salazar. An upper middle class Coruscanti family. His family owned a small but successful local freight company on Coruscant. The income from the family business allowed the family a bit of luxury though not part of the aristocracy. His early years were spent at the family home or at the family's freight company. There Santiano would play around on the non operational craft. As he grew older, he would during his spare time assist in ship repairs and learn to pilot several ships and vehicles. During his youth Santiano would be educated by private tutors. It was through them that Santiano gained an interest in politics.

At the age of 11 Santiano, along with the rest of the galaxy witnessed the most profound change ever to occure in the history of human kind. The overthrow of the old republic and the birth of the Empire. Santiano's family embraced this New Order and became devout Imperial citizens. It was at this time that Santiano would start on his Imperial career, as he and his family would see as their destiny. He would serve the Empire and would start doing so in the Imperial SAGroup.

SAGroup, The beginning of Imperial Service

"Hail to the Emperor, the Empire, and the New Order. May its righteousness never falter."
— Salute given by SAGroup youth


At the age of eight Santiano was enrolled in the Imperial SAGroup. An organization sponsored by The Empire with the purpose of providing Imperial youth with recreation and to educate Imperial youth on how to be a proper Imperial citizen.

When he was old enough and of proper rank, Santiano was transferred to the SAGEducation(SAGEd)-youth division branch of the SAGroup, due to his private education. This was the acedemic branch of the SAGroup, responsible for the education of Imperial youth within SAGroup. It was here that he would meet some of his closest friends. It was in SAGEd that he became close friends with three other youths, Inge, Han, and Jean-luc. Through the remaining years these four would remain inseparable. They would study together, participate in SAGroup activities together, and on off days hang out together at Santiano's home. Jean luc was another Coruscanti male of a more aristocratice background with blonde hair and was a bit overconfident at times. Han was a Correlian boy of a lower middle class background and of smaller stature and Inge was a strappig young blonde Coruscanti female, and a talented artist. It was Jean luc who would teach Santiano the game of Sabacc, they would practice together and eventual became good enough to swindle away credits from members of SAGRec.

During this time Santiano, was continuing to study under private tutors, and as he became older, he began to work in his fathers transport business. At frist helping to load and unload cargo, then aid in the repair of freighters and barges, and as he became old enough to have a learners permit, fly the smaller barges and transports around on deliveries. Santiano and his friends would at times sneak out and go joy riding through the neigborhood, and while stricly against Imperial law, and unfitting for imperial youth, Santiano and Jean would work their way into Sabacc parlors to play for real credits. This activity was not always good for their health as their ability would often times anger the other patrons, but they were lucky more times than not to get away in time. This is not to say Santiano was not a good citizen, He had won the Best young citizen award in SAGroup one year, not an easy accomplishpment. Working in his father's company would earn him valuable experience for later on in his Imperial Career.

All Good Things...

As the four friends grew older and became eligable for Imperial service, It was time for them to go their seperate ways. Inge elected to Join COMPNOR, while Jean elected to go to the Imperial Academy and eventualy the navy. Santiano had given some thought to joining the Imperial Navy, given the fact he could already pilot ships, and he even gave thought to joining COMPNOR,Santiano always had a crush on Inge, In the end Santiano decided to go with little Han and join the Imperial Army. Santiano would eventually find himself the Imperial armor divisions, while Han became an infantryman. Even though Han and Santiano were not in the same units, and even though his other friends were in other branches, the four friends stay in contact and are still close friends.


At the Imperial Academy

"So, let me welcome you in the Imperial Academy, Recruit. Here begins your career in the Empire. Will it be a long and prosperous, or short and dull"
Ardath Lemeth

His instructor was Flight Officer Ardath Lemeth.The initial confussion that every new recurit goes through was overcome quickly and he pressed on his studies at the academy with the help of his instructor. At the academy santiano did very well on his civics and history studies and average in his military protocol studies. On year 11 day 162 Santiano graduated from the Academy with the average score of 89%.

Upon graduation Santiano had thought about entering into the navy, given his background with piloting vehicles.In the end he decied to enter into the army because he thought he had spent enough time in space and that it would be nice to get outdoors. He decided to join the Imperial Army

Service in the Imperial Army

"Come on you apes! You wanta live forever?"
— Unknown Platoon sergeant,1918


On year 11 day 163 Santiano Salazar, now a new Private, began his career in the Imperial Army. He was sent to army training camp where he was to learn what it means to be an Imperial soldier. He was trained in the use of the Empire's most mordern weaponry. It was also there that he was first introduced to the the famous AT-ATs of the Imperial Army. After seeing the firepower of the goliath war machines, Santiano knew he we wanted to go into the armored divisions. HIs time at training camp went by quickly and once it was finished he was assigned to the [ ] Imperial Legion.

During these early stages he took up standard duties with the legion, patrol duty, guard duty. combat patrols. He was cutting his teeth on the ground and working his way through the ranks until he could request to be assigned to an armored unit. His wish came true quickly as after a few short months he was allowed to leave to be trained as an Imperial Army Pilot.

The training was very difficult, It was not physically demanding, but the techincal knowhow needed to operate and maintiain Imperial Armor was very demanding. Santiano did not mind, his dream of finally operating the AT-AT had come true. and after a few months he was now a qualified army pilot. He was assigned back to his legion and began his new line of work in armor.

Santiano was happy to be back in his old legion, when he arrived however, he found some of his old friends had been promoted, others had left or had died in combat. There were alot of new guys who had come in and replaced them. IT was not long after, that an old friend from his early days in the legion had returned from reserved duty. Santiano and his good friend Felix Stones were once again comrades on the battlefield. Stones is a a very good, if not headstrong, Imperial soldier. Santiano often has to remind Stones to calm down, or behave himself, but Stones often says Santiano needs to "lighten up a bit"

Santiano Is currently serving in the Imperial Army. His Legion and brigade are classified.
