PARODY / WOLFSHEAD 18

Bio:

Michael "Parody" Miller grew up in the Imperial City in Coruscant. His father was a Senator in the Old Republic, and a supporter of Palpatine. His mother was a computer programmer, but was increasingly helping his father in his political assignments.

When his father was assigned as Moff of the Grahandas system, including their Imperial Starfighter Shipyards, his father moved them out to Grahandas III. Moff Miller became increasingly ruthless and cruel, and as a result Parody had virtually no friends in the Grahandas system. He spent many lonely nights with his computers and the family droids, while his mother did what she could to temper his father's actions. He enjoyed playing action games, and 're-engineering' whatever droids he could catch and contain. Parody also enjoyed singing in the school music classes.

When he was 16, his family went on an in-depth tour of the shipyards. Parody was fascinated by the engineering facilities there. During a reception afterwards, he wandered off to a large simulation machine he had found. Later, he went back to the reception with an award certificate and TIE Fighter patch. Those were his ticket into early admission in the Imperial Naval Academy.

After two years of study both as a pilot and as a droid engineer, he was assigned to Frigate Minotaur. However, throughout his time at the Academy, he had been getting letters from his mother about his father's continuing atrocities with the workers of the system. Her last message was of leaving and joining the fledgling Rebellion. This message, however, was heard by more than just Parody. His father had known about the messages for years, and had his mother brought up on treason charges. Parody was implicated as an associate, and was court-marshaled. During the trial, the news came in that his mother was executed by Moff Miller.

At that point, the Rebels attacked the Minotaur. Parody was given his chance to prove his loyalty as a TIE pilot: go out there and destroy the Rebel attackers! Overcome with grief that he never took any action to stop this from happening, and anger at the Empire for changing his father so much, he decided to switch sides. He started attacking other TIE Fighters. The Rebels didn't quite know why this rogue TIE Fighter was attacking others, but they knew how to take help. They quickly finished off the Frigate.

Parody joined the Rebellion's pilots that day, as a pilot, engineer, and self-designated morale officer. He first joined Corsair Squadron, attached to the Mon Calamari Crusier Liberty. He was promoted to Lieutenant and transferred to Buccaneer Squadron after completing his training...and surviving the now-classified "First Flight" scenario. After a few months of service in Buccaneer, he was promoted to Executive Officer.

His life took a strange turn during the combination of missions classified as "Full Force". As a result of damage taken, his B-Wing hypered without a full program or conscious pilot. Parody was forced out of hyperspace by a planetary system, and he landed on a human habitable planet.

The next few years were ones of pure survival, and Parody doesn't like to speak about them. Fortunately for him, his jury-rigged repairs to his B-Wing reported that a ship had entered the system. Unfortunately, it was Imperials.

And his story continues...
