History: Born into a Republic controlled galaxy, Alexander Thorne always hoped for a good job, serving his government. He applied for the Army when he was 18, and was accepted. At that time, the army was comprised mainly of Clones, so Thorne didn't see much action. He was usually left on Coruscant, performing security operations.
During the Battle of Coruscant, where Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was captured, Thorne's squad finally got to see some action. He was in command of a small group of "non-clones". His group managed to hold the Senate chambers from droid attack for over 5 Coruscant standard hours. After which, Jedi Knights arrived with Clone reinforcements. For this amazing accomplishment, Thorne was promoted to Commander, and given his choice of assignments.
Thorne discovered however, that the Army wasn't as glorious as he thought it would have been, and requested to be transferred to the Navy. He was immeditately given control of an V-Wing squadron, and was stationed above Coruscant up until the Jedi Rebellion.
After the rebellion was crushed, and the Jedi destroyed, Palpatine declared himself Emporer. Thorne was now a Commander of the Imperial Navy. He flew with his V-Wing squadron long after they became obsolete. His successful missions allowed him to stay the only wing using the out-dated fighters.
After assisting in a local insurrection on Naboo, he was promoted to Captain, and assigned a Victory-class Star Destroyer. This was his ship for the next 5 years, as he continued to fly for the Empire. Soon after his 5th year with the Victory-class, the Empire went through refitting, and most Captains were assigned Imperial-I class Star Destroyers.
While completing a standard scan of a system close to Coruscant, Thorne was ambushed by Rebels. He managed to keep the Rebel fleet from destroying his Star Destroyer for 3 hours, which was when an Imperial Fleet arrived to rescue him. His crew was transferred to another Star Destroyer which had come to assist, and his Imperial-I class Star Destroyer was destroyed. He then lead the small fleet of Destroyers and managed to destroy the Rebel fleet, and their reinforcements.
Due to this accomplishment, he was promoted to Grand Admiral, and was given one of the Emporer's brand new battleships, a Super Star Destroyer. He was also placed in command of the Emporer's personal fleet, which primarily protected Coruscant.
Introduction:
Thorne woke with a large bump. The entire room he was in had shifted. He stood up quickly and rubbed his eyes. Just as he did the intercom spat at him.
"Admiral Thorne, we need you on the bridge immediately." Came the voice of Captain Danos.
"Alright, I'll be there soon."[/color] Thorne spoke clearly into the intercom. He lifted his finger off the button and rushed over to his wardrobe. He quickly stuffed on his uniform, and made his way to the bridge.
When the turbolift opened, he walked out into the hallway, he turned into the bridge and saw lasers flying in every direction outside the main viewscreen.
"What's the situation Captain?"[/color]
"A Rebel Fleet just exited hyperspace, apparently they didn't expect us to be here, but they've started an attack."
Thorne looked at the radar, and out the viewscreen. The rebels weren't flying with any obvious strategy. He had the advantage.
"Where are the remainder of the fleet?"[/color]
"They are due back in 45 minutes sir, you sent them to do some recon."
"Ahh, that's right. Contact them, and get them to head back here ASAP."[/color]
"Yes sir."
Thorne strode over to the main viewscreen.
"Lieutenant, I want that ship destroyed."[/color] He said, pointing to a large capital ship, mainly hidden behind smaller frigates.
"But sir, that ship isn't attacking us yet. Shouldn't we go for one of the smaller ones? The ones that we can destroy easi--"[/color]
"I said that one."[/color] He said staring at the Lieutenant.
There was a second or two of silence.
"Eh... Yes sir, immediately. Apologies."[/color]
Thorne felt the ship move gently towards the large Rebel capital ship. He saw turbolasers fire from all over his Super Star Destroyer. They came into contact with the Rebel ship, and destroyed it. The blast destroyed a few corvettes.
"See, this isn't a challenge at all."[/color]
The Rebel ships turned and started to move away. Just as they did, the Star Destroyers came out of hyperspace, cutting them off.
"Board the ships, take everyone prisoner. Try not to wake me again."[/color] He said simply, leaving the bridge. He heard the sound of the officers applauding him as the turbolift doors closed.
"...I love this job." He whispered to himself as he felt the sensation of travelling down.
