User:Chack Jadson

Chack Jadson was a Human male born in 36 BBY on Seswenna who eventually became a Jedi Master and an Admiral in the Rebel Alliance.

Early Life
Chack was discovered by the Jedi when he was a year old. Even though he was older than the standard age, one year was still young, and the Jedi thought he would be fine. He was taken to Coruscant, and raised at the Jedi Temple. He became friends with several Jedi his age.

In 24 BBY hundreds of Jedi were dispatched to the Outer Rim after several worlds engaged in a territory dispute began fighting. The mayor of one of the planets, Nefrassi, secretly commissioned an army, which invaded two other planets involved in the dispute. Because the planets were not part of the Republic, Chancellor Valorum was unsure how to act. While the Senate endlessly debated this alarming battle, the Senators from several neighboring systems, fearing for the safety of their home planets, ordered their planet's defense forces to act. Before Coruscant could blink, nearly 70 planets were engaged in battle. Valorum did the only thing he could think of-he sent 300 combined Jedi Knights and Masters to the original aggitators, the worlds of the Varonat System. Chack was among those supposed to be left at the Temple. However, in the confusion surrounding the Jedi's departure, he was able to scramble into one of the Consular-class space cruisers, spurred by his curiousity and desire to see the Galaxy. Shortly after the crusiers came out of hyperspace, Chack was discovered by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, on board with his Padawan Anakin Skywalker. He begged to stay. Obi-Wan took him to Ki-Adi-Mundi, deemed one of the leaders of the expedition. Mundi allowed him to remain, as long as he stayed on the ship, Guardian VII. However this was only because it would have been impractical to take Chack home to Coruscant. Chack agreed to remain on the Guardian VII, seeing he had no other choice.

The battle begun in space, with the Jedi allying with the defense forces of the Republic-allied planets. The battle was shown to be a completely one-sided mismatch, even with the Republic forces holding back. The non-Jedi leader of the mission, Jarrkul Awyn, sent a transmission to the twelve opposing forces offering they surrender and a compromise would be worked out. Eleven groups acquiesed, but one did not. Nefrassi, the world that began the argument, led by Mayor Elek Orbo, attacked the Consular-class crusier Peacemaker, destroying it. The 43 Jedi onboard were killed. Stunned, Jarrkul Awyn ordered the eleven planetary defense forces to retaliate, while the Jedi attempted to control them. The Republic fleet was stunned by the boldness of Orbo, as his "fleet" consisted of only six CR90s, dozens of YT-1300s, and hundreds of Z-95 Z-95 Headhunters. Out from behind Nefrassi's fourth moon, Kabdulja, suddenly appeared a fleet of Dreadnaught-class heavy cruisers. The Republic was stunned. 14 Dreadnaughts in all. It had gone from being a Republic rout to a battle. Though the Jedi did not know (and wouldn't learn til 20 BBY) Dooku, by then allied with the Trade Federation and the Banking Clan, had contacted the mayor. He had offered him firepower in exchange for a distraction and support in the war that he knew would come soon. The mayor agreed, for the people of Nefrassi bore a hatred for the Republic. In 34 BBY a nuclear weapon being tested by the Republic had malfunctioned. It was supposed to land and detonate on an uninhabited world neraby, K'Looll. However, it ended crashing on Nefrassi,it was too little too late. Finis Valorum would undergo a lot of criticism as it appeared he was trying to save his own skin rather than the contaminated planet. The mayor had eagerly accepted Dooku's offer when he approached him. Nefrassi was already involved in a territorial dispute with the 11 neighboring of the Varonat system, and it was simply elevated with the invasions of Hawon and Pefroy. But of the battle, what had appeared a rout had become a grinding fight. The forces of Orbo consisted of 14 Dreadnaughts. The Republic would have stood no chance, if not for one thing—the Jedi.

Onboard their cruisers, the Jedi rushed to their fighters, taking off in Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptors. Onboard the Guardian VII, Chack headed to the hangar. He did not want to just sit around and wait for the ship to be destroyed. He had disobeyed the Jedi Council on Coruscant, and know would pay for it. He took off in a spare ship after the other Jedi. There, Chack would fight in the first of many battles. He was a skilled pilot despite his age. The Jedi were able to turn the tide by destroying several of the Dreadnaughts. Still, the Republic was outnumbered. Chack, flying above the Dreadnaught Reign Ender, was being attacked by several Headhunters. He swooped down, executing a maneuver similar to the slip-jaws Obi-Wan and Anakin would later make famous. The Z-95s were still hot on his tail, as Chack spotted an escape. A hole right through the corpse of the nearby cruiser Hh'Kli would prove to be his path to freedom—or so he thought. The tunnel led to a dead end. In a panic, Chack released his proton torpedoes, ripping a hole in the wall. Chack shot through, free of his pursuers. He wasn't out of trouble yet though; right in front of him loomed another Dreadnaught. Chack had an inspiration. Pulling sharply upwards, he fired his proton torpedoes at the bridge, destroying it. He swung around for another pass, and flew toward the engines. He fired at them, causing a massive explosion which ripped through the ship. It was destroyed. Chack had started a chain reaction. As the last fragments of the ship fell, they crashed into another. The shields faltered, giving the Jedi pilots a chance to attack it. Fire from them ripped a hole through it. Chack swooped down, ready to deliver the killing blow. He fired several torpedoes. They flew right through the hole created by the other, destroying nearly a dozen nearby Dreadnaughts were destroyed, along with hundreds of fighters. But most crucial was the fact that Orbo's command ship, Vengeance, was disintegrated. Without their leader, the Nefrassi Navy was at a loss. The Republic began pounding them, forcing surrender. Nefrassi had gone from apparent victor with 14 Dreadnaughts remaining to loser, forced to surrender with only four Dreadnaughts left. Chack had enabled the Republic to win by starting the sequence. The Jedi discovered it was him as soon as they landed. He feared for the worst. But because he had given the Republic victory, he would not be punished, only warned. Still, Chack returned to Coruscant a hero.

The next three years passed uneventfully, until he was taken as Foul Moudama's Padawan in 23 BBY. He fought in the Clone Wars and became well-known, despite his youth. He was acquaintances with Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Aayla Secura, Mace Windu and Yoda among others. Chack admired Anakin and Obi-Wan; the hero without fear and the negotiator. Like Anakin, Chack strived to be great. When the Clone Wars began Chack went on several missions with his master. On the battlefields of the Galaxy he learned of the bravery of many Jedi, as well as the evil of the CIS and in particular, Grievous. It was also where he first began to comprehend the nature of the Force, and especially the dark side.

On an isolated planet in the Outer Rim, Chack experienced the dark side firsthand. Fighting with his master, they became seperated. Chack was ambushed by a group of Droidekas. A B1 battle droid with the party offered him a choice: to surrender and be taken to their leader, or to be killed. He chose surrender. They lead him through a neraby forest, then an abandoned city before stopping at one crumbling building. They walked into it. Inside was a tunnel which they all entered. Chack marched several miles underground before they stopped, and entered a side tunnel. Beyond that was a great cavern. In the center of it stood a massive castle. It was one of many secret command posts. Inside however, stood Dooku. Chack was taken before him. He was tortured for several days and came very close to the dark side. Just when things were bleakest for the young Jedi, he was rescued by the 501st Legion led by his master, Anakin Skywalker, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. The Republic had pushed the Seps back into the city, and discovered the underground passage. He then pledged never to stray from the light.

Later, he was sent to Saleucami during the Outer Rim Sieges while his master remained on Coruscant. While there, he learned of General Grievous' invasion of Coruscant and the death of his master. Chack was devastated at the loss of Foul Moudama. He was comforted by Stass Allie, who offered to become his new master when time was right. Chack understood that he needed to let his grief go, and accepted ger offer. they would have to get the Jedi Councils approval. Sadly, they never got the chance.

When Order 66 was issued a week later, Chack's clones attempted to kill him. He fled from them, then commandeered a LAAT/i gunship, which he used to escape into a barren forest. He hid there for several days until he was able to escape off-planet by stowing away on a merchants freighter. Through use of a mind trick, as well promises of "17000 when we get to Alderaan", he was able to gain passage to Alderaan. Once there he learned of the Great Jedi Purge and the creation of the Empire from Bail Organa. Cahck hea dmet Organa once or twice before, but they both knew who the other was. Organa was frequently featured on Holonet news because of his bold political maneuvers. Chack was also shown occasionally due to his heroic deeds in the Battle of Varonat and several Clone Wars battles. Organa was glad to see another Jedi. He decided that Chack could be trusted and then told him the truth about Palpatine, but did not tell him about Vader's true identity. Chack was appalled and vowed to do everything he could to defeat the evil Empire. Bail told him that there might be a time in the future when his helped would be needed. Curious, Chack asked for more details. Bail reluctantly told him of the Declaration of 2000, and the leaders, him, Mon Mothma, and the deceased Padme Amidala. They had begun thinking about a worst case scenario during the last days of the Republic. It had come true. They planned to slowly wait until the time was right, when the galaxy was fed up with the authoritarian rule of the Empire, and then form a resistance. Chack would eagerly await that for the next 18 years.

Chack gained a position working as an aide to Senator Organa, rising up the list of palace staff. No one, except Bail, knew his true identity. The others living and working in the palace knew only that he was an enemy of the Empire. He told them only that he was an orphan from Tatooine named Matt and that he had worked as an aide to the Jedi, making him an enemy of Palpatine. He was rarely seen in public, wisely choosing to keep a low profile. In 16 BBY Bail told him that Yoda and Obi-Wan had survived. He kept to himself, although he often would talk to Bail, and sometimes ask for advice or even give him some. Chack remained secluded until 1 BBY, when the Rebel Alliance was formed. Bail Organa offered him a position in the Alliance Fleet. He quickly rose through the ranks of the then tiny fleet, becoming an Admiral shortly before the Battle of Yavin. His flagship was an Acclamator named Pride. He also had an X-wing, though he seldom flew it in battle, instead commanding the fight from the bridge of Pride. When he heard of the Destruction of Alderaan, he was furious. If not for Mon Mothma he probably would have gone and attacked the Death Star all by himself in his X-wing. Chacks fleet was at Mygeeto at the time of the Battle of Yavin. Chack helped many crew escape during the Fifth Battle of Yavin IV. He was later awarded with a medal for his actions in the battle. He commanded several Mon Calamari Cruisers from the bridge of his ship. Chack became friends with the hotshot pilot who had destroyed the Death Star, Luke Skywalker, as well as Leia Organa, Han Solo, Admiral Ackbar and Wedge Antilles. He was well known for his roles in the Battle of Fest and the Battle of Chandrila. He achieved recognition after the victory at Chandrila, where he led an elite squad of Rebel soldiers through the city and to a secret bunker holding several high-ranking Imperial commanders. He infilitrated the bunker and killed the Imperials with his blaster. His men then planted several concussion charges, and then escaped in captured LAAT/i gunships before the base blew. At this point Palpatine realized who he was. He then decided that Chack had to be destroyed. His promise to himself would not be fufilled however, as Chack continually defeated Imperial forces or escaped when death appeared imminent. Shortly after the Battle of Hoth his flagship was destroyed. He began using an MC80 cruiser known as Promise. He later earned fame for his roles in the battles of Bothawui, Nocto, and Kothlis. One of his greatest failures was over Felucia, where his fleet battled Jack Nebulax's. Nebulax won, and Chack was forced to flee in order to survive. Chack was present at the Battle of Endor aboard his flagship, Promise. He helped Ackbar command the battle, and was in contact with Wedge Antilles throughout the battle, providing and listening to ideas. When the Death Star blew, Chack was exhilirated, knowing that Vader and Palpatine were finally dead. He later learned that Luke had escaped, and then told him that he too was a Jedi. He joined Luke's Jedi Praxeum shortly after it opened, taking a break from the New Republic fleet for several months, then returning to command for several months. Chack soon became an official Jedi Knight, and later a Master. He was a major player in the years that followed, when the New Republic was created and struggled to defend itself from many threats like the Emperor Reborn, Thrawn, and the Yuuzhan Vong. He continued to serve as an Admiral aboard his new flagship, an Imperial Star Destroyer, now known as Manwe. He also fought on the ground as a Jedi occasionally, though he preferred to command the battle from Manwe. It was Chack who commissioned a plaque to be hung in the Rebel Alliance Hall of Heroes which stated, "time will not dim the glory of their deeds."

Real Life
No, Chack Jadson is not my real name. Neither is Chad Jackson. It's Matt. I love Star Wars.

For the most part I just do minor edits. I specialize in grammar/spelling/tense corrections. If I see something that I think is wrong I'll fix it or ask about it on the talk page. Occasionally I'll do large edits but mostly I do tiny things. I haven't read a ton of books, but I know a lot about Star Wars (more about the films than the EU). I'm on about an hour a day (though it varies, sometimes significantly) because I'm only in high school. I like to help and be a contributor to this Wiki.

Quotes I Made Up
 * Palpatine was powerful. Insanely so.
 * No mortal is a match for the Emperor.
 * A Phantom Menace. This is what it is: a threat to deceive them, threaten them, make them weak. Then, when they are divided, it will strike. And they shall be no more.
 * In life, I was Anakin Skywalker. Now, I am Darth Vader.
 * You have unleashed the wrath of Darth Maul. May the Force have mercy on your soul.

Things I dislike

 * The Yuuzhan Vong
 * Any Sith appearing after 4 ABY; the Sith died at Endor
 * Lucas Bashers
 * People who insist we must have a canon source for everything, some things just require common sense
 * Lumiya
 * All the turmoil after 4 ABY; the Republic goes 1000 years without a major war and then the New Republic has about nine in 40 years
 * Vandals
 * Supershadow
 * Karen Traviss
 * N-K Necrosis
 * Ignorant authors who screw up continuity
