- "Your men may have hard-earned reputations, but mine work just as hard keeping up and filling the shoes our name leaves us to fill. You don't have to deal with the expectations. You're lucky that way."

Kelly Johnathan Perris was born to Osira and Tadel Perris of Alderaan, followed by one sister, Yasmin Perris, whom was two years his junior. He took in the first few years of his early schooling on Alderaan, a bright boy with a heavy mischevious streak and a passion for flight, until his parents' business lives became such that they made the move to Coruscant. There he continued his studies as a youth until he was old enough for military service. It was at this point that he went off to the Imperial Academy at Carida, and finally began to really fulfill his dream of becoming a fighter pilot. His sister followed not long thereafter, but instead delved deep into her interests in what would eventually become a strong career in Imperial Intelligence. Upon completion of his training at Carida, Perris was assigned to Shadow Squadron. For six years, there he remained. He showed a strong, undeniable talent in the cockpit, surviving where other pilots had not, and quickly rose to the position of Flight Commander within the squadron, passing on his techniques and tactics to other pilots. Such things only heightened the prestige of this already illustrious squadron. One member to take quite well to his teachings (and to Perris himself) was Bette Davis. These two were the cream of the crop, as it were, until the day of Alderaan's demise. After that day, Kelly Perris was never the same.
Assumed to have been committed to an institution after the mental breakdown Alderaan's destruction caused, Perris in fact had vanished. What he did or where he was during the months that followed is known only to him. The next thing that is known, after months of grieving, is his decision to sign up with the Rebellion. Again, his high skill as a pilot - once he learned the ins and outs of Rebel fighters - was noticed. Present day, he is the Commander of the Rebel Alliance's elite Rogue Squadron.
