So, the character's name is Gaelden Osdum; he's an artifact hunter.  Born on the planet of Ord Mantell, it's not hard to see why he'd want to join the Imperial Navy as a TIE pilot.  The elite of the elite in the Imperial Navy was his dream.  Unfortunately, there were several problems with these plans.  1.) He didn't quite qualify in the skill or academic levels to become a part of the infamous TIE fighters.  2.) He's Force Sensitive, which is practically either a death sentence or a life of servitude as an Inquisitor - and Force Users were people he did not feel comfortable around.  Even before he was born, his parents had an almost paranoid distrust of the Jedi Order.  When they were told of his Force Sensitivity and the potential to become a Jedi, they were outraged, believing that the Jedi were sent to kidnap their son.  Therefore, he was barred from ever learning of this, or even being permitted to interact with Jedi and Jedi Supporters.  So, when the time came around for him to make a decision on what to do with his adult life, he did the one thing that felt natural to him - a calling, as if some unknown force was dictating his next action: smuggling and selling ancient artifacts on Force heavy planets (provided they weren't heavily blockaded by the Imperials.  No one in their right mind would dare to go toe-to-toe against an Imperial vessel, not unless you had a heavily modified ship.)  He now spends his days listening to the strange connections he feels to find these ancient relics, but never looks too deep in them, for his fear of Jedi and Sith "sorcery" is strong.

Maybe, with enough luck, the young man will haul a nice catch, and swim in credits.

So, as far as his allegiance goes, he likes the Empire, albeit he is quite bitter about being unable to serve.  In his eyes, the Imperials were just trying to keep order in the galaxy, even if it has gone unstable due to a few authoritarian rules.  However, he refuses to get too involved with the political instability that plagues the galaxy.

Anyways, I'm perfectly fine with working to fix anything up, so long as we can discuss it.
