Background:
Dhas Fenoep Vedij was born into a lufe of privilage
and power. His father, Baron Admiral Ronna Tyla
Vedij, was a well-respected member of Coruscant
society.
Baron Vedij had inherited his title and wealth, but -
unlike his ancestors - wh were content to let their
money buy safe, noncombat postions in the military -
joined the Navy, where he led a distinguished career.
At one point, then-Bosun Vedij suffered grievious
wounds at the hands of alien commerce raiders. His
heroic actions - he single-handedly fended off the
assault - led to his commission to Captain. Risig
quickly through the ranks, he eventually attained the
rank of Admiral and retired to Coruscant.
His sons, Dhas and Elon, had been born while the
Baron Admiral was still in the Navy, but he made sure
that the boys were brought up believing in a strong
military, and eventually Dhas joined the Navy
himself. His brother followed a few years later.
Like his father, Dhas rose quickly thorugh the ranks.
Shortly before Palpatine dissolved the Imperial
Senate, however, Vedij's career stalled. The Emperor
had begun seeding New Order loyalists into the
military, and those who had ties to the Old Republic
Navy saw their careers enter a tailspin.
Shortly after attaining the rank of Commander, Vedij
was transfered to the Far Orbit, where he served
under Captain Vocis Kenit. Vedij despised Kenit, who
had achieved his present position largely due to
poltical acumen, not military proficiency.
Vedij - and the other officers on the Far Orbit -
bridled under the cosant haranguing and outright
violence of Kenit's command style. One dissenting
officer was reported to the ISB and later died under
mysterious circumstances. In a military notorious for
corrupt and brutal leaders, Kenit was among the
worst.
At about the same time as his transfer to the Far
Orbit, Vij recieved word that his parents had died in
a "traffic accident" on Coruscant. Apparently, a
robo-hack had misinterpreted routing instructions and
entered a flight pattern traveling in the opposite
direction. While pursuing an inquiry into the
accident, Vedij was "warned off" by Coruscant
security forces and the ISB. Vedij believed his
father - a vocal opponent of Palpatine's "retooling"
of the military - had been assassinated at the
Emperor's order.
Two days after the death of his parents, Vedij's
younger brother, Elon, was transferred to the Far
Orbit's fighter crew.The Vedij's believed that they
would be the next targets of Imperial reprisal, and
that they had been placed together to facilitate
their "removal." Dhas began to plot a mutiny, though
only in vague theoretical terms.
The incident that finally sparked the mutiny wasnot
an assassination attempt; instead Captain Kenit's
arrogance - and incompetence - pushed Vedij into
action. The Far Orbit had been tracking a pirate
group - the Silent Blades - for several weeks. The
pirates had destroyed several system patrol craft and
starfighters, and local governments were demanding
Imperial assistance. Kenit - a fair tactician in his
own right - possessed a flair for anticipating the
pirates' movements, and had the pirates on the
ru.
Eventually, Kenit pushed the Silent Blades into a
stand-off. The pirates had taken refugee in an
asteroid field; the Far Orbit could not easily enter
the region, but neither could the pirates flee. Vedij
recommended that reinforcements be called in to
futher intimidate the pirates into surrender, but
Kenit refused. In fact, Kenit berated Vedij for
suggesting that the "glory of the pirats'
detruction"be given to others.
Kenit orderd a starfighter assault on the pirate
stronghold - an attack that ended in victory but cost
the lives of every Imperial pilot...including Elon
Vedij. The Far Orbit's entire starfighter complement
was destroyed
Infuriated that enit's desire for glory and promotion
cost so many lives, Vedij's nebulous mutiny plans
began to crystallize. after orchestrating the mutiny,
Vedij vowed to teach a lesson to the Empire that
honored ruthless and inept bullies like Kenit.
Vedij is an inscrutable, seemingly passionless
individual, whose quiet nature belies the fiery
determination underneath. Vedij is an excellent
strategist, tactician and leader who is accstomed to
being obeyed. However,his cold an calcuating nature
has left him without attachments or many friendships;
the Navy was his life, and now, the Far Orbit is.
