Colo Delste

Commander Colo "Coldsnacks" Delste is currently a Flight Leader in the Heretics of Maelstrom, which is Flight 2 of Tempest Squadron. He has been in this position since December 1st 29ABY, previously serving as a Flight Member in Tempest Flights 1 and 3.

Early Life

Born and raised on the Imperial world of Carrida, known for being the home of one of the best stormtrooper academies, Colo's parents hoped he would take that path; however, he was more interested in the Imperial Navy's TIE/ln fighters, having watched holos of them from a young age. He joined the Imperial Navy at age 18, as a cadet at the prestigious Skystrike Academy. Serving in various line units, in 29ABY Delste was appointed to the Emperor's Hammer TIE Corps and rapidly made a name for himself within Tempest Squadron. He continues to strive to bring order to the Galaxy as the Emperor's Hammer Fleet travels the Unknown Regions. Known initially only by his call sign, Delste's records within the TIE Corps later showed his full name.

Dark Brotherhood

2 months after achieving the rank of Lieutenant in the TIE Corps, Delste was summoned aboard the FRG Swift Fury, where he was made an Apprentice within the Dark Brotherhood and assigned to Stingray, a Battleteam of pilots who are also Force sensitive. In June of 29ABY, Delste was tested and granted the rank of Novice. Continuing to show his prowess, Delste skipped the rank of Acolyte and was made a Protector on August 31 29ABY. It is rumoured that around the beginning of September 29ABY, Delste was made Battleteam Leader of Stingray; however, as the Dark Brotherhood does not advertise their internal positions widely, this can not be confirmed.
