Character Background


Elezeth Grimgast was only a Naval Ensign aboard the Star Destroyer Vehement during the Battle of Endor. During her time in the Imperial Naval Academy she had gained a reputation amongst her peers (some of whom also served on the Vehement) as a talented tactical naval officer with a fierce will. She had seen her appointment to a Star Destroyer in charge of patrolling the new Death Star's location as the highest honour and planned to use this service to increase her status in the Empire in order to rebuild her family's fortune. However, when the Rebellion arrived and thus, began the Battle of Endor - her hopes would be dashed. During the battle, the Vehement would be critically hit causing a rapid fire to spread across the upper decks of the Star Destroyer. In the sinking of the Star Destroyer, Elezeth was caught in particular explosion that significantly burned half of her face and body. Barely alive she survived by dragging herself to the closest escape pod. For her survival and the carrying of her duties during the battle she was awarded the promotion to Junior Lieutenant. There after she was reassigned to the Imperial-II Class Frigate the Pursuer as its commander. The Pursuer along with three other vessels were grouped into a Naval Task Force designed to hunt Rebel Naval activity in and around the sectors neighbouring Corellia. It is here that Elezeth unleashed all her rage and vengeance on the rebellion for disfiguring her body and killing her ambitions. Elezeth employed her tactical talents in hunting and crushing Rebel Starfighter/Ship operations, reconnaissance missions and supply runs. Known for her brutal tactics and unrelenting mercilessness to those who resisted arrest or attempted to outrun her ships, she gained the nickname the Nightmare of Corellia.




Elezeth is the eldest daughter of the Imperial Highborn Family Grimgast. She has a younger sister Sara Grimgast (http://theholo.net/forum/showthread.php?56727-Allo-All&p=1046864&viewfull=1#post1046864) (an Imperial Naval Intelligence Officer) and a youngest brother Ragnr (Tie Fighter Pilot).
Elezeth's father was the despotic governor of Bastion, Konrick Grimgast, who's mishandling and embezilment charges brought shame and misfortune on her family.
Elezeth's mother was Evalene Grimgast, a Coruscanti Socialite with ties to Alderaan. She would come to divorce Elezeth's father and disappear, only to reappear ahead of a insurrection flotilla with Rebellion backing. Elezeth would conduct a coup against her criminal father and later would battle her mother and her flotilla defeating her and sending her to the Imperial courts. Her mother would later be placed under house arrest on Bastion.
Before her mother's rebellion, her father Konrick would remarry, to a Imperial Socialite by the name of Tala Grimgast, she would become Elezeth's step-mother and Sara's birth mother.


Raw Material



For her ruthless behaviour and often brutal tactics, some of which even Imperials find distasteful, she has been nicknamed the Nightmare of Corellia. Due to this she has little in the way of "friends" in the empire. However, those who serve under her aboard the The Pursuer know her as capable leader and a commander who is more caring to her own subordinates than most.
Although she possesses a tough exterior and a brutal warrior personality, Elezeth is quite caring and very protective of her sister Sara and her little brother Ragnr. In fact, she carries a locket with her at all times with a holo-portrait of the faimly (sans the parents) on her person at all times.
Half of Elezeth's face is heavily disfigured by burn scars from an explosion aboard the Star Destroyer Vehement during the Battle of Endor. Elezeth still suffers from PTSD from the battle and as such has to resort to drugs to sleep at night sometimes.
Elezeth has a secret lover whom she hardly speaks of. Those privy to the secret, like her sister or the very few, have heard slender mentions that it is a Twi'lek dancer whom she visits from time to time on Corellia. Her name is unknown to most.
