Cpl. g'Rhea Kishke, growing up on an agi colony in the Expansion Region was all set to continue in the family business after college and hadn't thought the military as a possibility.  Then she met Breenai, a Lt. in the Republic Army.  She talked about adventures, traveiling, and the people she met all over the galaxy.  g'Rhea was enthralled.  Breenai got her to apply at the planetary recruiting office.  She had hoped to get through basic training and request assignment with Breenai's company.  Unfortunately, her friend was killed in an ambush against Imperial forces.  g'Rhea pushed herself through basic and after her first year was reassigned to the Republic Rangers.

Thanks Shawn.  I've got plenty to go still.  Just picked up some fodder from one of my local comic/toy shops.   Never enough time.

Along with many Iktotchi after their worlds discovery and acceptance into the Republic, Niishier Gaktai was ready to explore the galaxy.  He enlisted into the Republic Army.  His instructors were highly impressed and pushed to see what this new breed can do.  His training was taken notice by Lt. Ghvirethreh and after training was assigned to the Rangers.  At first many, Rangers and other military, thought this too early but no one has questioned it after his first couple of missions.

Cpl. Hallri Pattriil is just another soldier doing his duty but many don't see the compassion he has for the victims he sees throughout the galaxy.  It eats at him and makes him feel that he has not done enough to ease their suffering.  He fights and fights but it's not enough.  Finally, Buughar took him on their next leave to various sites where they fought and stayed with some of the people.  All but one site showed significant changes.  The one site eats at him and he has donated half his pay to the local assistance station.  He's at better peace but is more determined to fight the enemies of the Republic, be they the Sith Empire, terrorists, or other warlords.  Even the cost of his arm in a recen mission hasn't detered his goals.  Other Rangers chide that if you can't follow his strength of character, beware his left hook.

The Sirak family has been a military family for centuries.  Family tradition states that all enter the academy.  For many, commission into the military is next.  For a few, enlistment into a non-commission officer appointment.  For an even fewer, straight into enlistment.  These family members have been some of the more notable Sirak members.  Darrihk wants to be one of those that stand out in his family.  The youngest of 5 children, the older four are lieutenants or higher, Darrihk knew that it would be a hard journey but when he was appointed to the Rangers, he knew that it was going to be worth it.

Little is known about Spc. Biinaes Vic other than he lost both his parents to an industrial accident in Sith space when he was a child.  An uncle, the navigator on a freighter, was able to smuggle him and his younger sister into Republic space.  He placed both children with a friend where they were able to grow up in a less fanatic environment.  Biinaes wanted to help people like his parents and do what he can to defend and expand the Republic.

Jedi Knight Kira'lan Obossa was assigned as a liason to the special forces, specifically the Republic Rangers.  His assisgnment became more of assisting rather than delivering information to the appropriate authorities.  In this, he found as much a calling to the Force as another mission the Council deemed neccessary.  He may question certain actions taken by the Rangers but they are few and the end results have mattered more.

Really enjoy your back stories along with your customs. Off to share.

It is 25,000 years before the battle of yavin and many Je'daii have gone beyond the Tython System for enlightenment, adventure, aid to others, or whatever the Force guides them to. 

Jettunhil "Jet" Broktor was a Je'daii Ranger about 25,000 years before the Battle of Yavin.  He, like many of the ancient Force-sensatives of the era used both a Force-imbused sword and a lightsaber.  Je'daii Rangers were trained and skilled through nine temples of the Je'daii - Arts, Balance, Force Skills, Forge, Healing, Knowledge, Martial Arts, and Science.  Jet's strengths were in Arts and Martial Arts.  After most of his Martial Arts training sessions, he would use painting as a way to mediatate and relax.  His first mission outside of the Tython system brought him to a world where he introduced samples of art produced on Tython.  This helped him in the trade negotiations he was to initiate.  The samples were well received and trade negotiation proceeded to where all profited.

I wonder how many of your customs I have front paged over the years? I like this one too. Jedi Minstrel making Jedis is a good thing. Off to share.

Quite a bit, actually.  For which I am in your debt and humbled each time.  Thank You Sir!

Chagrians were not part of the original groups transported to Tython but a small contingent crash landed on one of the outlier planets in the system, Nox. The ship and it's crew were traveling for decades as a research and exploratory team.  They were looking for other habital planets and other intelligent species.  Two survivors were found to be Force-sensestive but were much to old for training.  Their son was only months old.  After the survivors were treated, homes were erected for them since their ship was nonsalvageable, the parents and child were asked if they wanted to join other Force-sensitves.  They agreed.  The parents recieved some training and allowed to study the archives while their son received complete training.  Brin Ghunak showed great promise and made his parents proud.
