Midshipmen Alkir was born on Serenno, joining its planetary defense force at 18 and transferring to its navy three years later at the recommendation of his direct superior. Alkir proved to be an effective ship’s captain, and served alongside Republic peace keepers and diplomats on several occasions during his tenure. By the time of the Clone Wars Alkir had become disillusioned with Serenno’s government, and upon learning the details of the war’s start defected to the Republic. The Republic was initially hesitant to accept Alkir’s application to the navy, only accepting it once his half sister, currently serving as a political aide for Chandrila, was able to secure a recommendation for him. The higher ups in the Republic navy still saw to it that Alkir would have little chance to succeed, assigning him to unimportant assignments far from any conflict. However, Alkir’s luck has changed recently, his last commanding officer was impressed enough with his abilities to assign him to the 7th after their recent naval losses. Alkir intends to support the 7th’s existing command to the best of his ability, and prove his allegiance to the Republic.

The Republic:
Alkir is loyal to the Republic, having dealt with its representatives and peace keepers before. In his mind the actions of the Confederacy are unforgivable, any governing body that begins a war with the attempted murder of a government official and peace keepers is undeserving of anyone’s loyalty.

Support:
15
Alkir knows that any one facet of the military is only as effective as its support from any other. Alkir strives to do all that he can to make others as effective as possible so that they may return the favor.
