|-
|Born on [[Corellia]], Glayde was the son of a veteran CorSec Officer. His father was opposed to some of the policies introduced by the Galactic New Order, and openly criticised some of their activities, but he was a hard-working officer who could be relied upon to do his duty despite his political opinions, and considered the separatist actions of the Rebels - particularly those from Corellia - to be far worse than anything the Empire had done.

Verton Glayde had always hoped his son would follow him into CorSec, but unfortunately John was sucked in by the Imperial propoganda machine, and was indoctrinated by COMPNOR into a future Academy recruit. John and Verton often argued about their respective political views, which ultimately led to a massive falling out shortly before John left for the Academy. When John's mother died years later, the last bridge between them was burned down, and the two have yet to reconsile.

|Though Glayde applied for Officer Training at the Imperial Academy, he narrowly failed to pass the final qualifying exams. Rather than force him to wash out of the Academy completely, his superiors instead entered him for training as a Non-Commissioned Officer. Glayde eventually emerged as a Sergeant specialised as a Scout Trooper, in command of his own four-troop Lancer.

Glayde went on to serve in a number of Imperial ground units, mainly as part of the expeditionary and reconnaissance elements of units stationed both aboard Star Destroyers and as part of fixed garrisons. Eventually, five years of distinguished service, glowing reports and recommendations from his superiors caught the attention of the Imperial Academy, who invited him to participate in Jump Trooper training. Considered to be one of the tougher branches of the Stormtrooper Corps, Glayde managed to earn the respect of his fellow recruits, and was eventually made Squad Leader not only of his training squad, but of his Squad on deployment as well.

For seven years, Glayde served as one of the Empire's Jump Troopers, eventually reaching the ceiling of the Enlisted ranks. He was offered the opportunity to assume command of his Platoon with the rank of Lieutenant, but an alternate proposal from a different branch of the Stormtrooper Corps caught his attention: the Storm Commandos. After several months of training, Glayde entered service as part of the Empire's elite covert operations division.

Glayde's career continued to progress; unfortunately it all went horribly wrong during a seemingly routine operation. While conducting covert reconnaissance on a community suspected of Rebel sympathies, a new recruit to his team suffered a breakdown and began opening fire on civilian targets. In the interests of preserving life Glayde opened fire on his teammate, inadvertantly killing him in the process. Glayde argued that his actions had saved the lives of innocent non-combattants: his superiors, and a military tribunal, ruled that he had sacrificed a resource worth millions of credits in terms of training and experience, in order to save what it termed as "viable Rebel targets". Glayde was discharged from Imperial service, although with little reluctance.

|After his discharge, Glayde spent a few months in limbo. He returned to Corellia, intending to join CorSec and reconsile with his father, but his application was declined - though never confirmed, John suspected his father's meddling. During the time he had the opportunity to see the Empire from a different perspective, without the overbearing hand of Imperial propoganda pressing down on his shoulder. Eventually, he began to sympathise with the motivations that drove the Rebel Alliance to actively oppose the Empire. After a chance encounter, he found himself drawn into the world of SpecForce.

Initially serving as a a SpecForce Pathfinder, Glayde eventually found himself serving as a Captain in charge of a Platoon of SpecForce Rangers aboard the Alliance Cruiser ''[[Valiant]]''. During his service there, he was contacted by his younger sister's closest childhood friend, [[Selinica Miriya]] - a girl who had almost been an extra sister too him - who had managed to get herself in too deep with the wrong sort of people. With the help of collegue [[Amos Iakona]], Glayde came to her rescue. ([http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18524 A Friend in Need])

While still serving aboard the ''Valiant'', Glayde participated in a mission to help with the liberation of the Bothan homeworld. ([http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?t=19265 Liberation - Liberation of Bothawui])

|Glayde was recruited to become part of a specialist SpecForce unit, designated Dorn Force. They were intended to bridge the gap between the missions typically conducted by SpecForce, and by SpecOps: a covert operations unit that could interact with both departments of the Rebel military. Prior to the official formation of the team, many of the eventual members participated in an operation to rescue the captured Duchess of Baraboo. ([http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18207 The Doctor and the Duchess])

After being officially established, Glayde led a Dorn Force team to Ruuria, to steal communications protocols from a new Imperial facility that had been constructed there. Glayde was subsequently promoted to Major, and was appointed as one of Dorn Force's Senior Officers. He and Lieutenant [[Charlotte Tur'enne]] were deployed on an undercover mission to Corellia, to extract an Imperial weapons designer who was attempting to defect.
