User:Oglam Paramount

Oglam Paramount has been a lifelong Star Wars fan from Portland Oregon from the age of six. He holds in his possession a vast number of Star Wars Lego sets, and has built his own Expanded Universe collection, including but not limited to the Ebon Hawk, the Bridge of the Ravager, Sith Fighters, and the crews of both The Jedi Exile and Revan. His personal taste in Expanded Universe literature and games range from KotOR to Legacy.

Early Life
Oglam was first introduced to Star Wars by another fan, his own mother. Shortly after watching Star Wars for the first time he began collecting Star Wars Merchandise, mostly Kenner action figures, vehicles, and battle sets. Prior to the launch of the Star Wars Lego line, Oglam built an X-wing and the Millenium Falcon from Legos. Years later when the line was launched in 1999, Oglam set out and bought each available set.

Adolescence
It was during his adolescence however that Oglam became transfixed by Star Wars. Games such as Rebel Assault II and Dark Forces caught his eye and he emerced himself in the Star Wars world. Later it would be Knights of the Old Republic that would make the critical blow. With the release of KotOR and KotOR II Oglam found himself once again entranced with the Star Wars Universe and these game put him in motion to expand his knowledge and understanding of Star Wars.

Online Role Playing
In the years following KotOR, Oglam has helped to create an Online Role Playing community focused around the KotOR time and characters. "The Infinite Empire" as the administrators have come to call it, is truly that, an Role Playing experience that is truly infinite. Currently there are over 250 individuals involved, with Six major factions; The Jedi/Republic, The Sith Empire, The Rebel Alliance, the Galactic Empire, The Exchange, and the United Mandalorian Clans. Oglam is currently the highest ranking member within The Infinite Empire and is a member of the Jedi faction.

Recent Times
In the Fall of 2006, Oglam picked up Issue 6 of Legacy. This single issue sparked new life in his love for Star Wars. In the months following he successfully tracked down and bough each copy of the Legacy series as well as the KotOR comic series, the Dark Times series, and the Rebellion series. Since then he has also bought and read the Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zhan and the Legacy of the Force Novels. His love for the Imperial Knights from Legacy prompted him to buy a custom Imperial Knight Lightsaber as well as a portray Antares Draco within the Infinite Empire Role Playing Game.
