June 24, 2007 – Jack Nebulax
Jack Nebulax was a Fleet Admiral in the Imperial Navy who would eventually promote himself to Grand Admiral and become Emperor of his own empire.

Throughout his life, Nebulax would serve in the Republic and Imperial Navies, in some points rising rapidly through the ranks. It is known that at a few points in his Imperial career, he attracted the attention of Emperor Palpatine for his outstanding performance at battles.

Unknown to everyone but himself and a small amount of others, Nebulax was Force-sensitive, but not enough to attract the attention of the Jedi Order. Nonetheless, Nebulax knew from a young age he would become a naval commander, and even after finding out about his Force-sensitivity, he did not dream of becoming a Jedi as most others would have.

The highlight of Nebulax's career came after the Battle of Endor when he set up the Nebulax Empire on Had Abbadon with himself as leader. Nebulax would serve as Emperor far into the Legacy and Unity eras.

July 1, 2007 – Swerto Dragonouve
Swerto Dragonouve was a human male that was born a year into the Clone Wars under the parentage of a mercenary that fought with the 501st, Swerto (I) and an ex-Jedi Mira Dragonouve. Swerto grew up on his own on Tatooine after his mother died when he was eight and before his father found him at fourteen. Swerto was part of the young stormtroopers and found himself in military service quickly. Swerto was stationed aboard the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin at which he grabbed a TIE fighter and began fighting in the space battle.

Swerto flew his way to Yavin IV just as the Death Star was destroyed which pushed him there faster than the rebel ships behind him. He crashed on Yavin and fought in that battle. Swerto was promoted and soon demoted and placed on leave on Tatooine once again. There he joined TIS and made his way back to Colonel and later resigned due to personal differences with a new member. Swerto joined ODS after being in a Rebel prison camp for months. Swerto made his way back and joined ODS under an old friends advice.

Swerto resigned from ODS after the Battle of Restuss and soon went to the Rebellion to spy. After his spying was finished Swerto returned to the Empire and fought at the Battle of Hoth, being one of the first to march into Echo Base. He also fought at the Battle of Endor a year later where he was shot down and stranded on Endor for a year. After returning to the Empire for a few years Swerto secretly joined the Dark Shadow Sith and destroyed it from the inside taking it as his own and forming the Dark Order with Kenya as his apprentice.

Swerto and Kenya married becoming co-leaders of the Dark Order.

July 8, 2007 – Ussej Padric Bac II
Ussej Padric Bac II was born to a long line of legendary war heroes, politicians, Jedi Knights and Sith Lords. His ancestor, Jonathan Bac, was the first Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. His grandfather and great-grandfather were both Senators of Alderaan. His parents were Laili Jeyna Rendar, the sister of his uncle Kit Corwin Rendar, and Saint Ussej Padric Bac who went on to become the Shaman of the Whills. His mother and uncle originated from Corellia. His wife, Bara ErMez, would eventually give birth to a son named Ussej Padric Bac III, a legendary Bendu High Priest that brought about the Holy War during The Great Sovereign Crusades.

The second Bac to bear the name “Ussej Padric”, he fought in the final battle of the Great Rim Lines War on Dxun where he met a young Republic Colonel named Cos Jonathan Dashin who would later go on to be one of the most instrumental Supreme Chancellor’s in galactic history.

After he died on Dxun, the newly elected High Priest Neil Rendar analyzed the Jedi Bendu Prophecies and realized that Ussej was one of the Prophets of the Whills spoken of in the Prophecy of The Nine Prophets. His mistakes during his life helped to bring about an age of awakening for the Bendu Order. During this time, not only were there changes in appearance to a more formal and monk-like style, but also a change in the way that the Order viewed itself. The three men of the Bac Family helped them to realize what happens when pride gets the best of people, including those held in such high regard.

July 15, 2007 – Steel Legion
The Steel Legion was a highly powerful criminal organisation, based on Nar Shadda, ruled by the old CIS battle droid Unit 8311. At it's height, it had influence and presence on countless worlds in every sector in the galaxy, and was feared by many.

It dealt with many criminal activites, from piracy to major theft to drug running. Over time, it gained a reputation for its large galaxy-wide activities, which provided it with a near-constant source of income.

The Legion, despite being broken up shortly before the Battle of Yavin, would later be reformed. Throughout its history, it remained a highly powerful body, rivalled only by Black Sun and the Hutt Cartel. After the Yuuzhan Vong War, it would become the most powerful criminal syndicate in the galaxy. It would go on to survive into the Legacy era.

July 22, 2007 – Lah D'ar
Lah D'ar was a Bith Jedi. He was born on Clak'dor VII and became a member of the Modal Nodes during the rebellion. He eventually quit because of his dislike of their leader: Figrin D'an. He later joined the Jedi Praxeum and was taught by Yoda's Force ghost. While a Jedi, he went on a mission to confront the New CIS, but a duel with Darth Tyler eventually ended in a draw. Upon his return from the mission, he began wanting more power and eventually joined Lumiya as a Sith. He learned the ways of the dark side and went on several different missions for Lumiya. After awhile he decided he was powerul enough to confront Luke Skywalker. He did and would have killed Luke had it not been for the timely appearance of one of Luke's apprentices. After his defeat he turned back to the light side. He later died while fighting in the Yuuhzan Vong War.

July 29, 2007 – Darth Exemplar
Darth Exemplar (born Malik Lanmaw), was a human male born on Lehon into slavery of the ruthless Rakata. His family was one of the many to work on the immense Star Forge. Through his anger at the Rakata, and of his overly abusive father, he grew immensly strong in the Force, especially the Dark Side.

Though he was an angry individual, Malik was quite attached to his sister,and it was this bond that drove a great deal of his anger. Seeing her in any kind of pain, set him over the edge, as he would violently attack anyone who harmed her. Perhaps the best example of this would be when Malik murdered his father in defense of his sister.

Fate would give Malik the chance he was waiting for when his sister, Shizu, was chosen to be a servant of the leader of the Tahh tribe. Through this, he was able to uncover an ancient Rakatan tomb, and gain full control over his powers. However, history always dictates that with great power, comes great sacrifice. The more Malik used this dark power, the more it consumed his very soul. Perhaps even more disturbing, the more power he used, the less others would be able to distinguish between each. The normal, if he could be considered as such, or the darker, more sadistic personality that surfaced whenever that power was harnessed.

Fate, however, would conspire against him, as he would eventually be forced into a confrontation with his beloved sister. A violent encounter that saw no winner, and ended with the disappearance of the two.
