Personal History: Korr Dun was sent to be trained by the Baran Do Sages at the age of two. He remembers nothing of his family, which is why when someone asks him about his family he says that the Baran Do Sages are his family. The Baran Do Sages are wielders of the force from the planet Dorin, Korr’s home world, they are not as powerful as the Jedi and many think of them as just wizards. The Sages were left pretty much untouched during the Jedi Purges of the Great Emperor Palpintine considering that Palpintine did not see them as a threat. This was good for it left all their teachings in tack unlike the Jedi who lost everything except for the things Yoda and Obi-Wan taught to Luke.
Korr’s training progressed at a pace that was above normal as he flew through everything. He had most soaked up by the time he turned seventeen. At that time he was drawn away from his home world and into the galaxy that was at war. He was trained in the best facilities available during the hopeless time. He moved through ranks in a breeze after the Battle of Endor he was promoted to Captain of his very own ship. War was still upon them as the New Republic tried to find a stable foothold. Korr had very little to do as he just followed orders and took his ship to where he needed to be. However, where he needed to be was often times where trouble was.
After two years of fighting the New Order the New Republic fell. The New Imperial Era was started, but Korr couldn’t stand by and let that happen. He knew he had to continue to fight so he joined the New Rebellion that very soon became apart of the Coalition. Although it was an informal agreement it allowed all four groups to be much more powerful. The Coalition could see that Korr had a good career in front of him and promoted him to Vice Admiral. Korr took this in stride, the war was still raging and having this new rank just meant he was better suited to help win the war.
At his new post Korr’s ambition was still high. He fought valiantly and was relieved when the Azguardia, New Rebellion and Mon Calamari formed officially into the Galactic Coalition. When they attacked the Empire Korr thought that the war would soon be over. Good Soldiers died everyday and after a failed siege where several Capital ships were destroyed Korr was promoted to be an Admiral. However the New Order had different plans for him and sent a spy onto Korr’s ship. After his first official day of being an Admiral, Korr crossed the spy in the hallway. The spy pulled a knife from his tunic and stabbed the unsuspecting Korr. Korr was injured, but luckily not killed from the wound.
Korr left the Coalition with a leave of Absence to seek shelter on his home world of Dorin and to heal his wound. There he returned to the Baran Do Sages and continued his training. After a little under a year Korr was ready to return to the Coalition and to do all he could in the ever continuous war against the Imperials.
