Alexander Tur'enne is a former weapons researcher from Frohad Galactic Firearms who defected to the Rebel Alliance. At the request of Colonel Sogan Dalgas, he currently serves in a support role providing various technical support and analysis to a number of SpecForce units, incluing Dorn Force; his sister, Charlotte Tur'enne is an officer in that unit.
Life on Corellia
|
Born on Corellia, Alexander was adopted at a very young age by Alluria and Jacob Tur'enne, who had been struggling in their attempts to concieve. Though they made no secret of Alexander's adopted status, they always raised him as if he was their own blood; even after, five years later, they managed to have a daughter - Charlotte - of their own.
Though the children suffered from the expected sibling rivalries - though with the younger Tur'enne always the more aggressive of the two - they were always close; right up until at sixteen Charlotte ran off to join the Corellian Resistance movement. Alexander had been away studying at university for much of her rebellious phase; when he tried to reason with her about the questionable legality of her activities, the conversation descended into an argument that ended their communication for six years.
Laura Dechen had been an important part of Xander's life for years, beginning as high school sweethearts and eventually becoming engaged. As the two made arrangements to move into their first home together however, things with their relationship became problematic, and ultimately Laura left Xander for another man. The fallout left him effectively bankrupt, homeless, listless, and heartbroken. It soon emerged that the only viable option for Xander to salvage something from his life was to accept a job at Frohad Galactic Firearms, as a low-level member of the weapons research team.
Over the course of half a decade, Alexander managed to rise through the ranks at Frohad. However, the higher he got, the better his view was of the inherant corruption in the company, and in society as a whole. After Alderaan, and after being moved to a specialist research project where the scientists were kept under lock and key with Stormtroopers providing "security", Alex decided that enough was enough, and contacted the Rebellion in the hopes of defecting.

The Rebellion
|
Xander was rescued from Corellia by his sister, along with her direct superior: John Glayde. Over the course of the operation, Major Glayde was shot; feeling that he needed to somehow find a way to repay the Major for his efforts, and also wanting to stay as close to his sister as possible after six years of non-contact, Xander made an arrangement with Colonel Sogan Dalgas to serve as a tech specialist under his command, working closely with various units including Dorn Force, in which both Glayde and Charlotte served.
