Post-Reset
Though never witness to the Clone Wars or any resulting violence himself, he was indoctrinated to support without question the Republic, and later the Empire, by his father, who defined himself by his patriotism. In fact, during the Clone Wars, his home was a “droid free zone,” and his father credited everything good in their lives to “those brave boys in white,” referring to the Clone Troopers. When the Imperial Navy opened its doors to new recruits, he jumped at the chance, even lying about his age so he could enlist two years early. Rising quickly through the ranks thanks to his boot licking skills and ability to pass blame on to other people, he was promoted to the rank of Commander serving upon the VSD Termagant.
During the disastrous Battle of Endor, he was promoted once again to replace the previous captain, who had been killed in action. As the new captain of the Termagant, he was tasked with taking part in the search and rescue efforts in the aftermath of the battle.
Kellison continually found himself at odds with the pilots of Shadow Squadron, an elite TIE Interceptor squad based on the Termagant. Their insubordination, along with the stresses of commanding a VSD eventually began to take their toll. Kellison's psyche began to fray at the edges and he was reassigned multiple times, eventually finding himself the captain of a corvette, patrolling for smugglers for the Imperial Customs Department.
He is a firm believer in fate after multiple close calls with death.
