BIOGRAPHY: Born to a renowned family of high social standing in Hanna City, the capital of Chandrila, Harson Thaddeus is the eldest of five siblings. Son of Derian Thaddeus, a respected statesman in Chandrila's Senate prior to his retirement, and Lavia Thaddeus, former Admiral in the Chandrila Defense Fleet, Harson was reminded from the moment he could talk of his well-to-do background, and "good stock", successfully and permanently embedding the importance of maintaining the family image from a young age. Initially on the path of a politician like his father, a series of controversial and publicly compromising incidents in his later education, the then-young man proving himself to be quite a delinquent in school, very much to the contrast of the values he'd been raised with, resulted in him being swiftly sent to a military school instead, his personal reputation among Chandrila's political elite already muddied.
This decision, rash and impulsive as it was, would ultimately end up being the single most important one in Harson's life, pushing him towards the career that he has since served in for the majority of his life. Attending the Brionelle Memorial Military Academy in the hills outside Hanna City, the young cadet quickly showed himself to be entirely adaptable to changing circumstances, and generally willing to learn in the correct environment. Excelling in leadership courses, as well as tactics and strategy, he was noted by his instructors as being particularly capable at rallying communally-minded individuals together, in this case, those individuals being candidate soldiers. He graduated second in his class, only just missing out on a notorious rival of his, who would go on to join the Galactic Alliance Defense Force, a failure that-- though he'd never admit it-- would continue to irritate him to this very day.
Harson on the other hand would graduate to join the Chandrila Security Force, serving in its ground component as a Lieutenant in one its various armored regiments, assisting in the commanding of tanks, walkers and other such vehicles. Rising through the ranks gradually, he would actually spend most of his career with the CSF assigned to infantry units, with his first stint in the armored corps being the exception rather than the rule. With the rise of the Galactic Alliance on the interstellar stage, and Chandrila's association with the government, eventually the offer would arrive to Thaddeus, now a Commander, to transfer to the GADF Army, with his education in the Brionelle Academy being viewed as legitimate, and accepted by the Galactic Alliance Defense Force as an equivalent to its vocational test and BMQC, given that Chandrila was within its borders. Ambitious with his future career prospects, and equally as eager to broaden his horizons, and see the rest of the galaxy, he accepted without any significant hesitation.
Enrolling with the GADF Army as a Major, the rough equivalent to his prior rank in the CSF, his assignments begun as piecemeal, largely related to minor scale anti-insurgency, peacekeeping and even the odd garrison, as he was informally required to prove his competence and skill in this new military before being entrusted with pivotal frontline operations. It only took one tour of duty with that status quo for the Major's talents to be accurately represented, carrying out his given duties with precision, professionalism and diligence, always a cool-head under pressure. His assignments upon 'informal' transfer to more action-orientated missions included the Pathfinders and Army Rangers, the latter of which lasted longer than the former, as well as a number of armored regiments, all of which would eventually see him rise to the rank of Major General. In his private life, he is married to a Coruscanti woman-- Alana Thaddeus, a professor at a prestigious university on the planet-- and is the father of three children, only one of which has pursued a military career, while the other two have pursued politics, and astrophysics respectively.
