"You were a stormtrooper?"
"Yeah, but I couldn't stand taking orders, so I jumped ship first chance I got."
"Smart move."
- Smuggler talking to Julian about his past
Julian Solo was a Human mercenary from the manufacturing planet Corellia. Born on Corellia, Solo later would enter the Imperial Academy at Mytus VII, serving with distinction. He turned to desertion, however, after he served during the Mandalorian-New Order war. He became a mercenary and began jumping planet-to-planet as he looked for work.
Biography
______________________
Early Life
Julian was raised on Corellia. He was a typical run-of-the-mill kid. Until he turned twelve, he liked running around and playing outside. Entering his teens he began to browse the holonet and spent most of his days going through it. He avoided school to do so. What friends he had at school were not what you would call friends, simply, associates. People he knew in class and from when he was younger. He didn't talk to him, and they didn't talk to him. He just sat with them, had lunch with them and that was the end of that.
Moving out of school he began to work in the titanium-mining industry with his father as a Laboratory Technician. His job consisted of analysing coal and dealing with various lethal acids. At age nineteen, the titanium industry went downhill - and fast. Of three-hundred employees on the site, only two were allowed to keep their jobs and jump town to continue work, the rest were made redundant. With his career gone, he did what he had to do to keep income coming in. He signed up for the corps.
Early 20s
Julian was shipped to the Tingel Arm with a one way ticket for the Naval Academy on Mytuss VII. During the 80 day Army Recruit Course he took part in physical training, weapon handling and shooting, first aid, drill and field craft. The training was challenging and had been designed to prepare him to be a soldier in the New Order. He gained a sense of achievement, purpose and confidence during basic training, and on completion of the course felt justifiably proud of what he had achieved.
During the Invasion of Dromuund Kas, he was deployed to locate the enemy and develop an intelligence picture through patrolling and surveillance. He was also assigned to provide security for other units and agencies through the same means. Once the enemy was located, and after air, artillery, and naval bombardment, he fought the enemy at close quarters with rifle, machine gun, grenades, anti-armour weapons and bayonet by day and night. He was tasked to seize or hold ground from the enemy. But the Mandalorians were better, smarter and more well-equipped. The stormtrooper armada was no match.
During the fallout of the failed invasion, Julian second-guessed his place in the military. The adrenaline thrilled him, but the terrors of war was not something he appreciated. He began to resent orders, and soon enough, he ditched. Julian and a handful of other deserters took the next refugee ship off of Mytuss VII before the New Orders ultimate and inevitable destruction. Since then, Julian has been working as a small-time gun-for-hire. He provides security at nightclubs, during shipment runs where pirate activity is at an all-time hire. As of now, Julian is only twenty-one.
Personality
______________________
Julian is calm and thoughtful when the time calls for it. He can be cocky and arrogant too, putting himself in less-than-desirable situations. He finds a hard time showing concern about his friends. When in battle he is typically angry but collected, though he can be overly-confident in his skills. Julian proves to be friendly and highly intelligent but also impulsive. His quick thinking earned him the respect of many fellow stormtroopers during the New Order invasion of Mandalorian territories.
