KEBLAOMEGA

From Emperor's Hammer Encyclopaedia Imperia


General information

Major KEBLAOMEGA is currently a Flight Member of Lambda Squadron in Wing I aboard the ISDII Hammer for the Emperor's Hammer TIE Corps.

He is also a Marauder in the Secret Order.

His personal craft is a red, custom TIE Interceptor with the designation "Crimson Lightning".


Background

Raised on the streets in the underbelly of Coruscant, and having some skill with swoop racing, he was able to stay out of too much trouble by competing in some of the somewhat more-legitimate racing circuits, using a red swoop bike he had nicknamed "Crimson Lightning". When he became a teenager, his piloting skills and reflexes were noticed by an Imperial officer who helped him enroll in an Imperial naval training academy.

After completing his training at the academy, he spent some time as a mercenary pilot. He obtained a red customized TIE Interceptor which he named the "Crimson Lightning II" and frequently used as his preferred craft. As an independent pilot, many successful missions earned him the pilot rating "Galactic Ace" (Star Wars Squadrons, operation 2) and in addition to flying missions he enjoyed competing in several contests of skill, before eventually being recruited to join the elite Emperor's Hammer TIE Corps. After his enlistment, he met his (soon-to-be) wife, an information officer. They had a son together shortly after marrying. When their son turned two-years-old and they were thinking of having another child, his wife disappeared suddenly and without explanation.

Following this, Keblaomega then dedicated himself to his career in the TIE Corps and on honing his skills as a pilot.

Career

Keblaomega’s first assignment in the TIE Corps was as a flight member of Beta Squadron. As he earned his wings, flying in many combat engagements, training exercises, and TIE Corps pilot competitions, he had several notable achievements. These included twice winning the Week of War competition, earning him the Distinguished Flying Cross on both occasions.

He then led Beta Squadron as Squadron Commander for a tour of duty before stepping down to a SQXO position to focus more heavily on perfecting his skills as a pilot. In this role he flew in the Neutralization of the Ishtari Campaign.

After learning of his Force sensitivity, Keblaomega was inducted into the Secret Order. He quickly became enthusiastically dedicated to studying the Force at the The Shadow Academy. After completing all of the standard courses, he continued his studies further and earned the graduate title of Graduate of the Dark Arts and was awarded the Ruby Scepter.

Keblaomega was then shortly after able to put theory to practice, fighting in the Defending the Rift Campaign both as a pilot of the TIE Corps and as a warrior of the Secret Order. His victories in this time earned him the Silver Nova, the Kaiburr Star, and induction to the The Guard of the Secret Order, with the title Guardian of the Second Circle.

As the TIE Corps prepared to reorganize and remobilize after the Tkon Rift Campaign, Keblaomega was reassigned to Lambda Squadron as a flight member.
