Significant Events of Childhood and Adolescence: Hadar Badlan was born to Jes and Merro Badlan on Corellia Prime. His early years, according to Imperial Records were unremarkable. At the age of 15 he failed all but five of his exams and but managed to gain enterance to the Republic Defence Forces. An early Psychological Test failed Badlan, he was deemed 'Violent' and 'prone to depression' and 'suicidal tendancies' Adding to the Republic's worrys Badlan was found to have slight Force abilities. It was concluded that the Violence was the Dark Side of the Force feeding Badlan. Hadar was sent to the Corellian Jedi Temple for training at combating the Darkside. After three long years Badlan turned 18 and his force training was a success. Badlan had combated the Darkside and he was free to join the Republic. Badlan served on the Platform Muse, a Training Facility where he finished second in his class. Initially Badlan was Assistant Pilot to the XO of Bravo Squadron. The XO was Kelso Foreman, a beautiful young woman who was the '1st' of Badlan's class at the Muse Platform. Three months after Hadar and Kelso joined Bravo the Clone Wars broke out and the two were thrown into the War. It is believed that Badlan was invloved with Kelso Sexually and romantically. After the CMDR of Bravo was killed Kelso declined to take top spot and instead Badlan became the Squadron CMDR. The Unit served all over the war zone, serving aboard the Dreadnaught Yakoant. Kelso and Badlan lead Bravo into the devestated Clone headquatres of a world called Wayland. Here Sparati Clone Cylinders were being used to produce Clones. New evidence revealed recently shows that Badlan infact knew the mysterious figure who lead the clones however under orders from corrupt officials he kept quiet. However the Squadron fought during the last battle of the Clone Wars and although almost the whole Unit and the Yakoant was destroyed Kelso and Badlan prevailed.

Significant Events of Adulthood: Badlan then turned 21 and became the second youngest Commodore. He took Command of the Dreadnaught Yakoant and Kelso became his Wing Commander. By Badlan's fourth year of service aboard the Dreadnaught the Coup D'etat of Chancellor Palpatine Occured and all units loyal to the Old Republic were ordered to Stand Down. At this time Palpatine and his Dark Jedi Minions began to purge the Galaxy of the Jedi Knights and Badlan was targeted. So he decided to save his love Kelso and his crew he would give himself up. However Kelso and the crew overwhelmed Badlan and threw him into a Shuttle. Then Kelso flew away from the Yakoant. The cover story was that the Jedi had decided to flee however a revived Badlan had to watch the VSDs of the new Empire Destroy his Dreadnaught. Badlan then flew back to Corellia and rescued his parents from the Dark Jedi Warriors. Together the four of them went to pick up his sister and Badlan's parents and sibling were put into hiding on a small world with new identitys. It was deemed that the Badlan and Kelso couple would travel together to stay on step ahead of the Dark Jedi who could track Badlan through the Force and that staying with his family would put them in danger. Together they managed to stay on step ahead of the Dark Jedi and they were thinned out themselves as Worlds rebelled and Light Jedi fought back. In the end almost all the Jedi were extinct and Badlan was left alone aparently forgotten in the chaos or deemed insignificent. Badlan adopted a new identity, one which we at Imperial Intel cannot identify. His parents adopted their real names and inlisted at CorSec as Engineers and R&D Design Techs. Badlan and Kelso under new names also joined CorSec. The Couple married on Corellia and together lead a Squadron to defend Smuggler's Run. After thirteen years Badlan turned 34 and became Wing Commander of the thirty first TIE Fighter CorSec Wing. His wife took a Job as a Detective Constable. Three weeks after his 34th Badlan's sister Oita Badlan was killed by Rebel Alliance Y-Wing Bombers, her and her Stormtrooper Husband were killed in the Assualt. Badlan became depressed but his wife helped him through it. Hadar's parents were recruited by Grand Admiral Thrawn on his Cloaking Field Development Project and were pivital on working out the power distribution problems. Then Endor happened and Rebel Fleets swept across the Inner Core worlds within days hoping to get a foothold into Imperial Space before the Empire could pull itself together. Corellia was attacked and CorSec, reported as Imperial allies took losses. However Badlan and Kelso survived. Soon after the Imperial Fleet Belonging to the Emperor's Hammer sect in the Minos Cluster Area limped into Corellia. Having been at Endor and survived they came looking for help. Admiral Kawolski of the Imperial Class Star Destroyer Devestator, needed desperatly a significent piece of equipment for his ISD to get it working. However Badlan owned one of only a few on Corellia. In return Kawolski let Badlan have his Shuttle in return for the devise and he and Kelso resigned from CorSec and set off for Kuat to find their parents. Upon arriving Thrawn's abandoned ISD, the Grey Wolf pulled out under the control of Ysanne Isard and Ronin. Kuat was being attacked from the Rebels. The R&D Asteroid which his Parents worked with Thrawn was under bombardment. TIEs and Snubfighters roared to a fro, the battle raged. However upon docking Badlan couldn't find his parents and they were forced to leave before the Asteroid blew up. As they left the Asteroid they noticed Imperial and Rebel Transports leaving the Platform, just before it blew up, giving the pair some hope for the survival of their parents. The pair returned the Courscant and inlisted in the Empire. Under Ysanne Isard they fought the fleets of the Alliance and tried their hardest to stop the Rebels. In the end they were seperated at the Battle of Courscant, both of them believed to be dead to each other. However Badlan hitched a ride back to Aurora wit the ISD Relentless and Kelso went back to Courscant and into hiding. Badlan then served at the Platform Daedalus reconfirming his flying ability. Upon completing the Training he went back to the Relentless and worked there with Crossbow under LC Doyon. Doyon was a Dark Jedi who upon finding Badlan was a Light jedi almost killed him however the two of them found a mutual respect and in the end friendship for each other. Meanwhile Kelso found her way to Aurora and into the Emperor's Hammer where Badlan found her alive. They had been through so much they decided to get divorced, they no longer held any love for each other. Currently Kelso Serves with Imperial Task Forces on the Minos Boarder and Badlan visits her often, when he can, it appears that she and Hadar are still friends. Next Badlan went with the Relentless and was transphered to Sword Squadron under COL Ricaud, then COL Sauron and most recently CPT Ted. With the Relentless and Sword Squadron they went to Ord Mantell to capture an Alliance Wing Commander on the run. Ord Mantell was conqured by the Alliance but Ord Mantell Resistance leader and ex. Stormtrooper Nav'Ric Trow managed to skip the planet with the Rebel General captured. Badlan saved Trow from a Rebel A-Wing and the two became friends. Badlan also introduced Trow to Starfighter Combat and he has recently rejoined the Relentless and into Sword as an LCM. Sword then undertook a massive mission firstly to the Platform Salm. Where they destroyed Thyferran Bacta Convoys. Imperial Intelligence Officer Joran Delsar aided Sword Squadron and seemed to bond with Badlan. After the Salm was destroyed the Swords returned to the Relentless which was then captured by Rebel and Thyferran Agents. After the Swords discovered the Relentless was not destroyed as they had been let to believe they went on a search and rescue mission aided by Joran to recover it, destroy a Rebel Spy which had aided the Relentless' capture and a Bothan capital ship which had helped to capture the Rel. Then Sword actually went to Thyferra and helped to topel the Xucphra Government which had rebelled against the Alliance and had poisoned almost the whole Alliance with a Virus. With Thyferra under its own control again the Imperial Sect helping them was destroyed by the Alliance. Upon returning to the Relentless the Swords settled down again. But Badlan was with them for only a day. As Joran contacted him with news of his parents! Alive and in the clutches of Warlord Zsinj working on a ressurected Cloaking field project!! The last confirmed sighting of Hadar Badlan was on the Relentless' victory celebration day after the 2nd Bacta War. He told his Wing Mates. "Its the start of my Quest." After a barage of goodbyes were thrown Badlan engaged the Hyperdrive stating. "I'll be right back!" UPDATE (20/12/00): Reports from other Imperial Sects, Rebel Sects and other reports identify Badlan on several Worlds around the galaxy. Accompanying him is non other than a woman matching Joran Delsar's description NOTE: THESE REPORTS ARE UNCONFIRMED UPDATE (20/2/01): Badlan has now returned to the Relentless, with him came a wounded Joran Delsar and a Bothan who's name is unknown and Mian Kelkacho. Badlan refuses to explain where his parents are and weather his mission was successful. He was sighted on the northern EH Boarder where challanged by a TIE Fighter Squadron. He destroyed two TIEs before escaping. Badlan under the orders of Val Ricaud Badlan was allowed back into service, however he was restricted to an unshielded TIE Fighter which was unarmed and served as a training aide to the ISD Relentless. Badlan has yet to prove his innocence or tell the Imperial Authorities his adventures around the galaxy. He is still under investigation. (Joran Delsar will spend 3 Months in a Bacta Tank on the Relentless)

Alignment and Attitude: Badlan has a tendancy for a hot head. However his Jedi Attributes stop this being the case. The man is calm and collected, and thoughtful. He has skills in several areas including Starfighting, Limited Jedi Arts skills, limited Marial Arts skills and the ability for Starfighter and technical repair and building. --NOTE (20/2/01)-- Since Badlan's return the the Emperor's Hammer there have been several occurences when he has displayed extremely advanced Force Abilities, possibly because he has raised his awareness with the Force.

Former Occupations: Badlan has served mainly in Military Occupations. Including Jedi Knight and Scolar. Then Old Republic Starfighter Pilot, Commander. Also within the Old Republic as DREAD Commodore. Later as Pilot and then Wing Commander in CorSec defence division. Then in the Empire as a pilot on the ISD Rage. Later in another Imperial Sect as an Imperial Pilot, then Flight Leader. After a period of leave he dropped back to Flight Member. Then in Sword he became XO under CPT Ted. Later returned as FM into Sword

Hobbies: Shows a great intrest in the Force and is keen to improve his skills. (Without Success) Also enjoys making hand crafted Starfighter models. He also has a strong enjoyment in all things flying and space combat. The pilot also enjoys writing.

Tragedies: Death of Sister is probably the main tradgerdy of Hadar Badlan. However dismisal from the Old Republic, watching his ship explode, his divorce and the loss of parents are equally traumatic to this tourtured 'soul'

Phobias and Allergies: Allergic to Chlorine. Hates aracnids of all kinds including all insects in fact.

Personal View of the Empire and EH: When asked Hadar Badlan made this statement; "My view of the Empire. Well I'm no fan of Palpatine for sure the man was an evil bigot. However you can't escape the war and I chose. I chose the best people out there, the pilots and officers of the EH appear to me to be fairly decent people, not racist and apparently the leadership of Ronin has made this so. But choosing the Alliance would be wrong as they maybe killed my parents and killed my sister." REPORT TAKEN: 06/5/98 15:03

Reason for enlisting in the EH: This question was put to Badlan and this was the reply; "Reason? Well I don't have anywhere else to go. I mean, the Rebels wouldn't take me. Having parents in the Empire an being CorSec would make me on their 'enemy' list surely? Anyway I agree with EH policy. Well I gotta go, I'm just about to leave for the Relentless. I hear its good is it? Excellent. I hope its good. Well cyas later I guess. In the Service of the Empire." REPORT TAKEN: 06/5/98 15:13

Other Comments: Badlan was asked to make other comments by admin and this response was made: "Hey to any EHers out there, I hope I can continue the great adventure that is life in the Emperor's Hammer. Oh thats corny isn't it? F*ck!" REPORT TAKEN: 06/5/98 15:20
