Jordanus Starscream is an Aquilifer in the Trade Federation's Ministry of Defense

Early Years

The Human male Jordanus Starscream was born in the outskirts of Iziz city on the Inner Rim world of Onderon to parents Illias and Gaeriel Starscream. His father was a former Mandalorian mercenary, now in retirement, and his mother was a droid merchant and owner of a small shop in Iziz. As a child he would occasionally help his mother with the shop, usually by cleaning the droids that were for sale. However, this was up until his 7th year. It was then that his father declared that it was time for Jordanus, in accordance with his Mandalorian heritage, to begin his combat training. He underwent a five year training course in the fields of marksmanship, swordsmanship, unarmed combat, fighter, and freighter piloting. It was during this training that Jordanus realized his affinity for flying. This is the reason why at his 12th birthday, when it was decided he will attend the Academy of Carida, one of the most prestigious military academies in the Galaxy, he enrolled for the Naval Officers training program. At the Academy he had a slight advantage over his classmates, due to the training with his father, and was one of the best cadets in his class. In year 6, after having spent eight years at the military academy on Carida, Jordanus graduated with top grades. Unfortunately, his happiness did not last long. At the graduation ceremony his parents, along with hundreds other people, were killed when New Republic terrorists detonated a bomb placed in the visitor’s longue. Saddened and enraged, just a few months after his graduation Jordanus applied for service in the Galactic Empire’s Navy in hopes that by doing so he would get the chance to avenge his parents. After two years of service with the Empire, however, he realized that a career in the Navy was, at least at that point of his life, not his path. He instead returned to Onderon where he tended for his mother’s shop for a while.

Path to prosperity and wealth

After learning the ropes of being a trader, Jordanus made a bold move – he sold his mother’s shop and his family house and earned a good few hundred thousand credits. He quickly doubled, and even tripled, these earnings by buying and reselling goods of all sorts and was soon a millionaire. He bought an YT-2000 freighter and set off to explore the Galaxy and do business with it’s many inhabitants. After he had been travelling the Galaxy for five years and had amassed tens of millions of credits, Jordanus realized that he wanted something more than just buying and selling goods, but was not sure what that was. One day, while traveling in-system he received a recruitment holomessage from the Trade Federation. That message cleared things for him, so he went on and joined the Federation.

Serving the Trade Federation

Wanting to serve the Federation as best as he could using his military training, the young Onderonian joined the government’s Ministry of Defense and began his career in it’s Navy. Nowadays he serves as an Aquilifer, an officer, in the Ministry’s 1st Fleet – the so called “Frontier Defenders” of the Trade Federation.

Beside his regular job as a protector of the Trade Federation, Jordanus also takes part in maintaining, improving and recording the Federation's culture as part of the it's Library and Art teams.
