Nik Vecto, born of Patrik and Sayra Vecto on the planet Badgen. Served as a Jedi Master and General in the Clone Wars, and went into hiding during the Jedi Purge. Has recently returned and taken position as Second in Command of Escort Squadron.
Species:Badgenese, known for their long lifespans.
Furry:Badger
Political Affiliation:Jedi/Rebel Alliance
Nik was brought up on Badgen by the Six Jedi Masters assigned to his planet in order to train him in the Jedi Arts. When Nik was the age of eight, a Sith apprentice named Darth Murdus killed the Six Masters by unhonorable means(explosives, over-powered weaponry), and the young Nik challenged him. Murdus easily defeated Nik, but felt that he may turn to the Dark Side later in life, so he left him with a scar above his right eye(see "A Jedi's Mercy" in the story forum). Nik wanted to chase after Murdus, but had to return to Coruscant in order to complete his training.
Nik eventually became a Jedi Knight, and trained his own Padawan just before the beginning of the Clone Wars, earning him a commission as a General in the Republic Army. Nik survived, but fled into hiding when the Jedi Purge swept the galaxy.
Many years afterward, Nik felt the Force call him to the universe again, and he met Marcus Starkiller, son-in-law of Nik's fellow Clone Army general and friend, Horkon Sunskimmer. Marcus offered Nik a home and a command in his squadron as Nik continued his search for Darth Murdus, a search interuppted by nearly 30 years of isolation.
