Biography: Many across the galaxy have heard of the great Count Dooku. To some, he is, or rather was, a great man, an inspirational leader, a freethinker, and a patriot. To others, he was downright villainous, a traitor to both the Republic and the Jedi Order, and the manifestation of evil in physical form. This, however, is not the story of that particular Count Dooku. Rather, it is the story of his successor, also called Count Dooku. The story of His Grace, Aidan Dooku, Count of Serenno begins thirty-five years before the Battle of Yavin, far from the planet he would soon rule. Born to a cousin of the infamous Count that came before him, Aidan's mother, rather than being a noblewoman from Serenno, was in fact a courtesan from Zeltros; his father, a merchant rather than a politician, spent much of his time on the planet, even owning a villa there where Aidan was born. The young Aidan lived with his mother on Zeltros for the first seven years of his life, very rarely seeing his father, who cared little for him. This was not something Aidan was particularly upset about; he and his mother were permitted to live in the villa, and were very happy together.
At the age of seven, however, Aidan's father brought the boy and his mother back to Serenno, intending to use his son and his wealth to gain more influence, and rise within the House of Dooku to become the current Count's successor. While few people, including the Count, supported Aidan's father for the position, Aidan himself was noted as a possible choice to succeed the aging Dooku; even as a child, Aidan regularly proved himself to be as intelligent as the Count, and the discovery that the boy was force sensitive (something only known to the Count and to Aidan's mother) all but ensured that he would be chosen as heir. In addition, the Count, secretly the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus, took Aidan under his wing as a student of the dark side of the Force, training him in secret as an apprentice. Under Tyranus, Aidan, enhanced by the natural abilities given by his Zeltron blood, become an expert at lightsaber combat, and the use of the Force to twist the minds of those around him. While Aidan had knowledge of Dooku's other apprentices, he believed himself to be his master's favorite, and strove to make the Sith Lord proud.
When the Clone Wars broke out, Aidan, too young to fight alongside Dooku on the front lines, instead stayed on Serenno to drum up support for the war effort and to ensure that the planet's nobility remained loyal to the Confederacy of Independent Systems and to their Count. During this time, his training would stop for long periods, as the Count was away fighting; when he would return to Serenno, however, it resumed with great intensity. This only ended with Count Dooku's death at the hands of Anakin Skywalker on board the Invisible Hand, at which point, after spending several days in near complete rage, Aidan was crowned Count of Serenno, and decided to no longer hide his abilities. After securing his throne, the new Count Dooku embarked on an intense campaign against the Republic in the Outer Rim, aggressively going after trade and outposts on distant planets. At the head of his fleet, the Count of Serenno seeks to destroy the Empire, seeing it as proof that the Confederates were right about the Republic all along, and to take his master's position as head of the Confederacy.
