Stryker

Stryker is former Wing Commander of Wing XXI and current Combat Operations Officer of the Emperor's Hammer.
His current rank is Admiral
Stryker also holds the title of Dark Jedi Knight in the Dark Brotherhood.

Tie Corps

In February 2006, Stryker graduated Delta Company of Platform Daedalus and was assigned to Diamondback Squadron as a Sub-Lieutenant aboard the ISD Intrepid.
The next day, he was promoted to Lieutenant.

The New Infiltrator Wing

Near the end of March 2006, Stryker accepted a request to join the new Infiltrator Wing. He was assigned to Red Squadron as Red 2-1, but soon accepted the job of Red CMDR. His promotion to Commander would mark the beginning of a journey through good times and bad as he began the slow climb up the promotional ladder...

Squadron Leader

For three months Stryker led Red Squadron as a Commander. He would be joined by officers like Colonel Gunman, Lieutenant Tirna Q'jira and Commander J'Lek Arcanos. Unfortunately the latter two pilots did not last long in the squadron and soon returned to the reserves.

In June 2006, shortly after the beginning of his third month in command, Stryker was promoted to Captain on the recommendation of the Redemption's COM Rear Admiral Exar Kit, and his fellow CMDR Commander Uther who was leading Green Squadron at the time.

During his tenure as a Captain, Stryker further aided the Tactical Office as a Surveyor and joined the Combat Operations Office as an Assistant to then-COO Ramos Kanzco. Like before, it was only another three months before, in September 2006, on request of the Wing Commander - Lieutenant Colonel Pellaeon, Stryker was promoted to Major.

After a week as a Major, Stryker was forced to resign to the Reserves for personal reasons. Though luck was on his side, and a week after his resignation, he returned to his old position where he would serve for another two months.

Wing Commander

With Vice Admiral Exar Kit asked to resign from command of the Redemption due to poor activity, Colonel Pellaeon was asked to step up to Commodore. At first, Pellaeon had decided that Major Iceman would be a good Wing Commander, but after only three months he was forced to resign.

Then came Stryker's turn. With his departure from Red Squadron in December 2006, Stryker promoted Lieutenant Bodo Dent to Commander and entrusted him with the Squadron he had called home for so long (which would prove to be a mistake that would haunt Stryker for months to come). Wing Command was not easy for the young Major, but he persevered, and after two months as a Wing Commander, was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in February 2007. Not long after, just before the opening of Blue Squadron, Stryker was promoted to full Colonel in June 2007.

Unfortunately, in September 2007, suffering from ill health, Stryker stepped down as Wing Commander and Colonel Gunman was selected to replace him.

Combat Operations Officer

After spending a week recuperating, Stryker was given the position of Combat Operations Officer. His service as a Combat Operations Office Assistant had left him as de-facto Combat Operations Officer, and the promotion and appointment were merely a formality.

Dark Brotherhood

Stryker has never really settled down in the Dark Brotherhood. In his year of service, he has served in House Cestus of Tarentum as a Battleteam Member, House Tridens of Tarentum as a Battleteam Leader and Quaestor, House Oriens Obscuruum as a Battleteam Member and Battleteam Leader, and House Qel-Droma as Quaestor and Battleteam Member.

After a brief stint as Galeres QUA, Stryker began to suffer from ill health and was forced to step down.

Other Duties

Stryker also fulfils duties as a Tactical Surveyor, Professor of the Basic Flight Maneuvers course at the Imperial Weapons and Tactics School and Pontiff of the Imperial TIE Fighter Course at the Shadow Academy.

Awards of Note

TIE Corps

Commendation of Loyalty - Awarded January 26th 2007

As recommended by Pellaeon:

MAJ Stryker is longer on the Redemption than me, after a short trip under his command as CMDR, myself was quickly WC, now COM so I was able to watch his command experience development. He wents through all the ups and downs everybody of us has sometimes, even with a short resignation to RSV for a week to sort out RL problems. But he quickly came back to support me with the work on board the Redemption. He got the choice to be COO or WC and he decided to stay as WC. This showed me his loyality to the Ship and its members. Now he is my WC and I feel it gaves him a hughe boost of motivation. I discuss a lot with him on irc about plans for the Redemption and about competitions. This makes him to an important and valuable member of the TC and an important advisor for me. I'n my opinion he is the only guy on my ship, who deseves a CoL at the moment. All the others still needs to prove themselves. Recommended by Grand Admiral Astatine
