Sw'lbyrd

Sw'lbyrd is a Sathari Warrior from the planet Arbooine.

Background

Sw'lbyrd, like all Sathari, was born and raised on the planet Arbooine. He was born into the Avari, a proud warrior tribe noted for some of the strongest fighters on the planet. Training ever since he was a child in the ways of combat, Sw'lbyrd quickly became a renowned guardian and leader among his people. His peak physical prowess coupled with the seemingly supernatural reactions and intuition held by all Sathari chosen to be warriors ensured his leadership was unchallenged.

There began reports of Imperial Stormtroopers around the planet, scouting out areas for and occasionally raiding Sathari villages. Officially, The Empire suspected there to be a hidden Rebel base on the planet, and was carrying out search and destroy missions throughout. This didn't sit well with the Sathari however, as too many raids on peaceful Sathari villages were being carried out to explain searching for rebels. Sw'lbyrd was cautious, and fearing for the safety of his family and his tribe, ensured his warriors were ever vigilant and trained to combat any intrusion into their village. Yet the Empire was ruthless, and came upon their village in the middle of the night, setting fire to homes and indiscriminately slaughtering Sathari people. Outraged, Sw'lbyrd led his fellow warriors into battle against the Stormtroopers; though heavily outnumbered and out-armed, it was better to die fighting for his people than to live as a coward.

Sw'lbyrd charged at the stormtroopers, swinging his blade in a wild but preciese manner, slicing through trooper after trooper. He was a whirlwind of rage and power, uncontrollable until he heard a sound: his wife and child screaming for help. The briefest second passed and he was grabbed by two troopers. Sw'lbyrd saw the Stormtroopers standing over his wife and child, rifle poised to strike down, and with every fiber of his being he reached out to his family. Suddenly, the home collapsed on top of them. Screaming in rage, he ripped the arms off of the soldiers holding him down and began to wildly beat them with their own arms. Just as quickly as his home had collapsed, four elite Stormtroopers clad in black had arrived, using stun weaponry on Sw'lbyrd to pacify him. After witnessing the events that had transpired, it was deemed to capture him at all costs.

Waking up, groggy and disorientated, Sw'lbyrd found himself in an empty cell, locked behind a steel door. What happened to his family? What was the fate of his tribe? Why was he captured and not killed, and brought here of all places? A rage and vengeance began to rise within Sw'lbyrd. He needed answers. He needed vengeance. He needed to get out.
