E'lan Sor'qan

Born to the family Sor'qan that was established long ago during the Old Republic and made famous after they created the Sor'qan Weapon Systems and Manufacturing. Growing up he was taken in by the Jedi Order like his father and taught to use the force. Early on he proved to be a natural warrior, with strong connection to the force like the many Sor'qans before him. Inheriting the Sor'qan family saber upon his father's death, he then became a Jedi Knight and commander in the Clone Wars.

### The Clone Wars

Around the age of 19-20 E'lan was knighted after training under his father for the past 7 years. In response to the onset of the Clone Wars, E'lan was elevated to commander and granted a unit to command. Worrying his father with this choice, the Jedi Council assigned his father to be his overarching general so that they would serve alongside together. This eased some familial worry, but would lead to sometimes questionable calls throughout the war.

#### Battle of Christophsis

Part of the detachment sent to liberate Christophsis, he assisted as a tactical advisor aboard one of the present Venator-class Star Destroyers and eventually partook alongside the fighter squadrons of its complement. Facing true battle for the first time he was intimidated but pulled through and was useful for keeping droid fighters off his men leading to a closer bond between them. When the battle in space ended he participated in the removal of land forces and sieging out of Separatist elements within the massive cities. Realizing what he was fighting for he felt invigorated and stayed for a while at the planet to prevent a renewed Separatist offensive.

#### Campaign in the Outer Rim and Battle of Ryloth

Sent to support the halting of the Separatist advance via the Outer Rim, E'lan and his father were present at the Battle of Ryloth and were key in securing back Republic garrison holds and wrestling control of Twi'lek villages across the planet. Mostly acting on the ground he saw little of the space battle, however he did assist in the later halt of the Separatist advance via space where he saw plenty of action commanding the Venator-class he was on. Growing attached to his clone unit and vice versa, E'lan was doing quite well in the war.

#### Second Battle of Christophsis

After a few years of a various minor scouting missions and garrison duty, E'lan returned to the front-line with the Second Battle of Christophsis. Arriving somewhat late he assisted in the defeat of the Separatist garrison, but was otherwise unknowingly a participant to others.

#### Outer Rim Sieges

Partaking in the final days of the Galactic Republic's offensive on the Confederates, E'lan was a part of the attack on Saleucami with Quinlan Voss. Despite the overwhelming firepower of the Republic, E'zan was shot-down in his LAAT and killed, leading to E'lan becoming darker and inheriting the Sor'qan Saber. Following the swift victory at Saleucami he went on to the Battle of Murkhana where he fought valiantly. Leading his detachment of clones into Murkhana city itself, they cut a swath through the droid defense until Order 66 was called. Injured in the purge, E'lan slew his friends to escape, stealing a civilian star ship to flee entirely. With the proclamation of the Empire, he was alienated and needed somewhere safe to reside.

### Imperial Era

On the run and fearing for his life, E'lan left to his homeworld of Pantora, far from the core and filled with his people. There he resided for a few years, learning about the extensive deaths, expansions of the Empire and the new order it imposed. Becoming a voice in the politically turbulent environment of post-war Pantora, he vocalized support of the Republicans and often was seen advising the senator and Chairman of the Assembly. Volunteering as part of the small but growing Pantoran navy, he served as an officer for a few years, reliving the Clone Wars and expanding his naval career. After a few minor skirmishes it was discovered he was an ex-Jedi and one of the higher up Appeasers alerted the Empire. Knowing he had to flee he made his way towards Hutt Space, angry that he was betrayed by his own people.

#### Growth of the Rebellion

Despite Imperial attempts to quell rebellious elements and cut off information about it, E'lan learned quickly of the various rebel cells formed across the galaxy in opposition of the Empire. Sympathizing he would sometimes work with them by giving them information, funding them or even partaking in their various missions to liberate the galaxy. However the Empire caught onto him again and he made a hasty retreat before joining up with a Sullustan rebel cell where he would meet Riden Ku-mal a rebel officer and anti-SoroSuub freedom fighter. Taking on a position of lower ranking officer in their rebellion, he began accruing attention from Rebels who would go on to rally around him later on.

#### Late Age of the Empire

With his rebels making more and more gains across Sullust and nearby planets, E'lan had accrued too much attention from the Empire yet again. With the deployment of two Imperial Star Destroyers and various SoruSuub support ships, E'lan was terribly outnumbered. However stealing some SoruSuub ships on the planet and calling in assistance from other nearby planets, they managed to take down the ISD-I *Killing Spear* and severely injure the ISD-I *Vengeance's Guide* as well as cripple SoroSuub fleet capacities and production. Despite this victory many rebels were left dead and their fleet considerably lessened, leading to their retreat from Sullust until later. E'lan went on to raid Imperial supply lines including a minor assault on fuel cell supplies where he overcame three Ton-Falk Cruisers and three Nebulon-B Escort Frigates, capturing 2 of each and leaving the other two to die. After this he went to Yavin and made contact with General Arcadia on Gaullus, who he sold the captured ships to for a hefty sum and proceed to assist her with some rebellious activities.
