Short Bio:
--34 BBY --
The sun was shining over Dac, and the spaceports were pretty busy today. The unveiling of that new design was to be held in an hour, everyone wanted to see it. "Mon Calamari ships" they said, "are the best to look at."
Stupid tourists. Dacian ship designs were for strength and durability, not looks. Well, they did look nice to other species, one supposed. It was probably the organic feel. This particular design was for inspection by the Republic for a new warship. Of course, no Republic representatives were to be seen, as Dac was very close to the Outer Rim, and they feared a pirate raid. Like that would ever happen to Mon Calamari! But, they would be reviewing over the HoloNet anyway. The design was from the shipwrights of the Critou clan, and it was their big chance to go big. But, there was some commotion at the control center of the main dockyard...
All was fire. Massive pieces of debris from the space battle were falling and most of them were impacting the ocean, but same made it right onto the heart of the many cities and spaceports.The crown jewel of todays' events was lying, destroyed, in its shipyard. Many were dead or dieing. The cause: a surprise attack by the massive main force of the Black Sun Pirates. The small Republic Defense Fleet was no match, but was still fighting heroicly, and had taken many Black Sun down while only having lost one of their own. The small Critou estate was in ruins, bombarded from orbit.
----
It had all stopped. The entire planet seemed to be burning but the BSP had gone, leaving the entire Republic Defense Fleet in bits of scrap metal. The pirates only goal was to crush Mon Calamari. Millions were dead, with tens of millions missing, buried under rubble, or lying injured in the streets. Only one person was still alive in the Critou compound, and he understood just enough to seat a deep hatred for the Pirates that would last his entire life.
-1 year later-
Damek turned his back on the many brethren gathered around, scowling at him. He had turned to the path of the smuggler, inspired by the break-up of the Naboo Blockade years ago by the Republic, and for that his people thought him a traitor. Dustin walked into the small Republic Cruiser that whisked him away into the unknown.
-22 BBY- Damek was now a very prolific smuggler, with a great cover occupation to boot. In fact, it was a little too good of a cover job, as he had been selected to accompany some massive expedition
right out of the galaxy. He couldnt really say no, and besides, it might be immensely interesting. The ship would have to travel into the very heart of the Outer Rim in order to make a hyperspace jump to next galaxy over. If he found there what no Jedi could find, war or no with separatists, he would have the power at his fingertips to destroy them. He would avenge his people, his family, and his own honor if he found the Black Sun Base. It was unlikely, however, so his hatred would have to simmer for another decade or so.
