Alex Ordon

Alex Ordon was a human boy born to two pilots who supplied the Jedi Order with essentials they couldn't provide for themselves. When he was born, his parents were ecstatic that they would be able to contribute more to the order than merely spare parts. Born in 123 ABY, Alex became a Jedi Knight in 154 ABY, six years before the outbreak of Galactic Conflict.

Discovery (123 - 137 ABY)
Alex was the son of two pilots who provided the Jedi Order on Pacis with essentials such as Thibanna Gas and light saber crystals, on Coruscant. On a delivery run to Pacis in the following year, the pair were delighted that their son, whom they had taken along with them, was Force Sensitive. Agreeing to having him raised as a Jedi - they would be able to visit him at any time - Alex was separated from his parents at the young age of four, and began training under a Battlemaster, and later a Jedi Historian, before being taken as an Apprentice in 137 ABY.

Training (137 - 154 ABY)
Alex struggled as a Padawan, realizing that he was not as powerful in the Force as some, and so lacked much self-confidence. Finally his Master decided he was ready for the Trials, and Alex undertook them, passing them only by the skin of his teeth, as he focussed all his effort on completing them. Happy to have completed his Trials, and knowing that with that piece of evidence, he had proven himself worthy of the Jedi Order.

Knighthood (154 - 160 ABY)
Alex worked hard as a Knight, going on many diplomatic missions to Coruscant where he debated heatedly with the Senate, alongside the Jedi Order's official representative. The general belief that the Jedi were lazy and ignorant cut deep into Alex, knowing the hard work he had put in to get where he was. It was with this perception of the Senate that Alex was disgusted when they forced the Jedi to act six years into his Knighthood on the assassination of their Supreme Chancellor.

War!
With the outbreak of war, Alex assumed the position of Jedi Brute within the Jedi, specializing in light saber combat, growing in stature amongst the Jedi, although still a relative unknown.

Behind the Scenes

 * It is possible that Alex is a descendant of Gratius Ordon, the Jedi Master who trained Darth Minious before his fall, although it may be coincidence.
