Overview
Zekk Terrik is the current Commander of Sin Squadron aboard the ISD Warrior. He is also a former Aedile in Clan Scholae Palatinae, and prior to serving as Commander of Sin Squadron served as Commander of Pi Squadron aboard the ISD Colossus, and a tour of duty as the Commander of Theta Squadron aboard the SSSD Sovereign.
Biography
Zekk was born and raised on Chandrila. He came from a family of middle-class bacta merchants who owned a small production and distribution operation that gradually got larger. While his family initially struggled and failed to grow their business during the Old Republic due to overwhelming and inefficient bureaucracy, the Empire largely forced their (mostly non-human) competition out of Chandrila, enabling the family business to flourish. His parents have since passed of natural causes and his sister is managing the family business.
Because of the success the family experienced under Imperial rule, despite Imperial oppression of Chandrila, they were regarded as loyalists by the Imperial regime, and frequently bought all of the bacta from the family business they could.
TIE Corps
When Zekk came of adulthood, he traveled to the Outer Rim after hearing of the Emperor's Hammer. He wanted to serve the Empire that had been so good to his family, and the EH was the best equipped and most well organized of the remaining Imperial factions. He considers it his duty to restore the Empire to its rightful place in Coruscant and to put a new Emperor on the throne.
After completing starfighter training and officer candidate school, Zekk was assigned to Wing II aboard the flagship of the EH, the SSSD Sovereign where he served for some time, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and commanding Theta Squadron for some time.
During this time, he fell in love with a young woman who was an Imperial officer - Shayla Ludsorkim. They married and she became Shayla Terrik. They did not have children. During Zekk's leave of absence they remained in contact with his wife through long distance Imperial communique - however, during a routine transport between ships her patrol was attacked by Republic strike forces and her craft was boarded. She has not been seen since and is considered MIA.
He took a long leave of absence - nearly a decade - to return to Chandrila to care for his ailing parents. After their passing and his sister assumed control of the company, he returned to duty.
Zekk's immense skill at starfighter combat and piloting resulted in him being selected for Jedi training. He quickly became a disciple of the Dark Side, sensing its immense power would help him become a better pilot. He has become obsessed at trying to find his wife - also a trained Sith - through the Force. While he can sense that she is alive, he cannot sense her personally.
