User:Tork Chi'lya

Tork Chi’lya was born on Hoppawui, a planet in the Both System near Bothawui, and grew up like any other Bothan child during the Rise of the Empire. Son of Freilia Chi’lya and Frack Chi’lya, he grew up 3 blocks from the Bothan Military Academy. When he was 16, He started going to the Academy to fulfill his dream of flying a starship and be trained in fighting with a blaster.

At age 21, when Emperor Palpatine came to Hoppawui, Frack killed a Stromtropper that came to their house looking for Tork after learning of his whereabouts and that he was going to the Bothan Military Academy. His dad kept the armor, rifle, and other equipment in case the imperials ever came back, but gave the pistol to his son, Tork. But during the fighting, Freilia, Tork’s mother, was struck by a lose blaster shot and was rushed to the hospital by Tork, but after arriving he learned that nothing could be done and she died 6 hours later in her husband’s arms.

Years later when he was 25, he finished his training at the academy, and joined the local police task force. Not soon after he was assigned to patrol the space around Hoppawui in a Firespray-31 Patrol Craft, because of his extensive training in the academy. 2 years later, after saving up enough credits to purchase it, he (along with his father’s help) bought the ship and all the necessary licenses to operate and own the Firespray, along with a Military license to purchase military grade equipment.

Now that he was 27, and had his own ship, and was out of the police force, his father told him of a planet that he learned about from a Jedi master, when he served in the clone wars, named Ilum. The Jedi told him of caves full of wonderful crystals that where used in their light sabers. After Order 66 was given, the Jedi fled to hide on Ilum but far away from the caves to avoid detection. Along with him, were 3 modified clones that were sympathetic for the Jedi after Order 66 was given.

His father asked Tork if he could make the cross galaxy flight to rescue the Jedi and his clones and bring them back to Hoppawui to stay with Frack. Both Frack and the Jedi, named Mossa Cartilis, had become great friends before the end of the clone wars. Tork agreed and did so hoping to get a good crack at some imperials to avenge his mother’s death.

But before he could set out, an old friend from the academy, which was now a military officer for Hoppawui’s Planet-side and Naval Operations Army (HPNOA), asked Tork if he could run a bounty mission against a warrant officer named Polo Sei’lay, which went rogue and stole valuable information from High Council, to take to a large group of pirates.

Traest Fey’fey (the military officer) told him that he would send a group of 4 elite Bothan soldiers aboard his Firespray to help him recover the plans and either bring Polo in alive or dead. Traest also told Tork if there are pirates or any other suspicious equipment or activity to “take care” of it. He can also take any salvage or equipment not important to HPNOA and that he’ll get a 6,500 bonus on top of any pay.

Tork gladly agreed to this ‘mission’ because of his lack of equipment, credits, food, and other supplies to make his father’s cross-galaxy transit. Plus he’ll get any salvage from the ‘mission’. Tork knew Traest couldn’t send any other ships with him because of the fact that if Polo seen any marked starships land that he was found (the markings on Tork’s Firespray had been removed).

Traest trusted Tork because he had graduated top of his class in school and in the academy. He also knew that Tork was stealthy and good at gathering information-that he would be a prime candidate for the job.

So Tork set out for Drunkenwell, the last know location of the rogue Warrant officer, named Polo Sei’lay.
