Background

Valis Olessei was born to Amur III as the son to a Colonel in the Amurian Military. As was family tradition, Valis Olessei joined in as soon as he was of age, spending only a small handful of years going through the usual wargames before the Clone Wars erupted.
Valis Olessei was on the front lines when the first battles of the Clone Wars reached the Amur system's planets. He fought through many of the battles that came through his System, rising up the ranks and becoming a captain by the time the war came to a close.
Valis Olessei was devastated when the Galactic Empire took rise, seeing the Amurian Government bend it's knee so casually to, what he saw as, an affront to everything he fought and bled for. Like with so many of his fellow troopers, he turned against his System Government, fighting in the bloody Civil War until they were pushed out, swearing vengeance and liberation for their home.
Valis Olessei headed for the Outer Rim after the fight, becoming a mercenary for all kinds of clients, from Ganger Scum to Hutt Bosses, no job was too dirty, and any job that hurt the Empire was always given a discount.

Other Notes

The Amur System is a small, several planet system to the Galactic North-East, straddling the border between the Mid Rim and the Outer Rim. The Amur System, during the times of the Galactic Republic, was a massive hub of commerce, as within it laid a large Gas Giant of Tibanna Gas. As it's primary source of income, the Amurian System government, untrusting of the Jedi's promises of peace, as well as their mere existence, siphoned funds from the sale of it's gas, and formed a private Defense Force for the System, combining Plastoid VAC-Sealed armor, Exo-Suit Augmentations, Genetic Manipulation, Tibanna-Based Blaster weaponry, 'Smart' weapons, high quality Slugthrowers, and both conventional and unconventional Ballistic Missile ordinances into a deadly, and surprisingly efficient military.
As time went on, the Amurian System's System Defense force evolved into a proper System Military becoming more and more openly funded by the various planets in the Amur system, and conversely, it's military traditions began to seep back into the populace of the System, and while this tradition began to worry certain neighboring systems, come 22 BBY, however, Amur's constant preparations came to a heed as the Clone Wars broke out. During the three years of the Clone Wars, the Amurian military provided one of the best instances of System Defense, despite straddling the border of Republic and Separatist space, excelling in any and all combat brought their way, even so much as sending detachments of elite troops to join the Galactic Republic in battling out of System, earning those soldiers their Green Decals and Trim.
At the end of the Clone Wars, as the Galactic Republic was reformed into the Galactic Empire, the system split into a bloody civil war, as those that supported the Galactic Empire drove out Republic loyalists and idealists alike, continuing to do so up until fall of the Galactic Empire. Many of these Loyalists would later join the Rebellion or look for Mercenary work, doing everything in their power to damage the Galactic Empire in any way possible.
Those troopers that were driven out painted themselves with the Green Decals and Trim of veterans, both to insult the Government that they felt betrayed them, and as a promise to continue the fight until they are one day welcomed home as heroes.
