## Biography

### Origin Story

Raised in an orphanage on Lok, Bywing Lancer found himself growing up near gangs and spice dealers. By the age of 8, Bywing had already begun running as a courier for gangsters.

As a child, Bywing was good at hiding and moving quickly. Useful skills for a courier. Although he did not realize it, he also had a tendency to know when to avoid danger and as a result he avoided death more often than other couriers.

Fortunately for Bywing, a Sullustan Jedi Knight by the name of Xis noticed Bywing's talents in the force, and made arrangements to have a human-centric charity group lift him up out of Lok. Bywing was placed in an orphanage on Corellia, where he was able to go to school like most humans in the core worlds would. He experienced all of the privileges of human life in the Empire.

Bywing however, did not forget who had really saved him. In secret he would meet with Xis, who taught him the ways of the force. Over time, Bywing turned his pain into focus and saw through the hypocrisy of the Empire.

After accepting the Jedi Code and dedicating himself to its ways, he was introduced to a secret enclave made up of about a dozen surviving Jedi Knights, including Knight Xis, Master Koriandr, Master Mav, Knight Rymja, and others. The young padawan studied under these Jedi, and supported them in their plans to covertly rebuild the Jedi Order.

### Secret Enclave destroyed

Bywing encountered several difficulties as he maintained cover as a student of the University of Corellia. The members of his secret enclave would meet at a secret location on Talus, and so it would sometimes be necessary to travel there.

During the final meeting, Bywing sat alongside his fellow Jedi as an equal, finally having been named a Knight. The very same day of his Knighthood however, the Empire attacked. It seemed that their secret enclave had not been so secret as Storm Commandos and an Inquisitor caught them by surprise.

In a daze - Bywing managed to escape and lept into a nearby river. He washed up miles away, but soon came face to face with an Imperial Inquisitor who had managed to track him down. Bywing was able to defeat the Inquisitor, but in the same instant that the young Jedi Knight had struck the Inquisitor down, the Inquisitor had severed his left leg.

Bywing's identity had not been uncovered by the Empire despite the raid and he was able to escape back to Corellia. But with the rest of his fellow Jedi gone, he was left to assume that he was the last of his kind.

Now Bywing secretly had one goal in mind although he did not call it what it was. He desired revenge.

The young Jedi joined up with the Imperial Military and managed to become a Stormtrooper. He spent a few years secretly infiltrating Imperial Society. When he was honorably discharged he finished his degrees at the University of Corellia and began working as a Professor.

His ultimate goal was to make his way up the ladder of Imperial hierarchy so that he could get close enough to the Emperor and assassinate him, thereby ending the Sith threat once and for all. But with the Battle of Endor and people beginning to doubt whether the Emperor was even alive, several things changed.

### Meeting Fazza

Bywing met Fazza during an archeological expedition to Dantooine. Initially, Bywing had no idea that Fazza was a former Jedi but befriended the old man during his visits there.

Bywing's secret goal on Dantooine was to find artifacts and scrolls from the enclaves so that he could secretly preserve them and keep them away from the Empire. However, when in public he would profess his loyalty to the Empire but also did his best to convince others that he was a progressive Imperial who believed in reform and despised anti-alien sentiments of the Imperial regime.

Fazza, who considered Bywing well-meaning but naive decided to begin plotting ways to stop Bywing.

Such plots included but were not limited to: Spilling tea on datapads accidentally, misleading Bywing into believing that places with no archeological significance should become digsites, stealing artifacts that Bywing might find.

Ultimately these shenanigans came to a head when Bywing caught Fazza recruiting another Ithorian to sabotage his digger-droids. This led to a confrontation between the Ithorians and Bywing, where he ended up admitting to them that he was not an Imperial loyalist but a rebel.

After a long exchange with Fazza, the two Jedi recognized each others sensitivity to the force.

A relationship that had begun with uncertainty and distrust ended up blossoming into a lasting friendship.
