Biography:
Bren Katar was born on the Bothan colony and industrial center of Kothlis to a low upper class merchant family in 133 ABY. He was an exceptionally bright but awkward young man and the third of 5 brothers, he realized he would not inherit the family industrial business so instead entered the armed forces.
He attended the Republic Navy War College on Anaxes in 152 ABY and his life was totally changed. His awkward disposition gave way to a life of obedience, discipline and loyalty. He eventually graduated near the top of his class and was commissioned as an officer aboard a cruiser in 156 ABY. Within a year he had distinguished himself in combat in a skirmish outside Hutt Space and was assigned temporary command of a corvette to hunt down pirates.
In 158 ABY he was given formal command of a Corvette in a battlegroup fighting against Imperial Warlord fleets. He continued to perform well, often leading scouting expeditions and raids deep into enemy territory targeting key infrastructure. In 161 ABY he was present at the defeat of the Alliance forces invading Imperial Space at Bonosk during which he sacrificed his ship to save a portion of the fleet. He survived and after a brief hospitalization he returned to active duty commanding a brand new Cruiser in 162 ABY, he was heavily involved in combat with the new Coalition forces most famously leading a daring raid on Mygeeto that heavily damaged Coalition industrial capacity, and for his actions defending Ord Cantrell against invasion.
Peacetime saw Katar continued to climb through the ranks, participating in a skirmish against the Hutts and being deployed at various hotspots until the outbreak of the next war with the coalition in 173 ABY. Taking command of a Battle Group in the Mid-Rim, Katar was chronically underfunded as the war engulfed the Core worlds. Tasked with defending an area including Hapes, Onderon and Kshyyyk, Bren Katar relied heavily on local militias to defend the sector and the Perlemian Trade Route. Eventually being promoted to command an entire fleet and being promoted to Fleet Admiral.
Katar would frequently make use of slow fighting retreats coupled with lightning raids to destabilize the forces of the Coalition, keeping them off balance and working with Jedi allies to misdirect the enemy. But the writing was on the wall and by 180 ABY he was defending Commenor with his Jedi allies in the Core Worlds. Thanks to their bravery a massive force of Coalition troops and ships was caught in a trap and destroyed in 182 ABY. He personally decorated a number of Jedi who fought in the battle and was featured in several propaganda campaigns as a hero of the Alliance.
Katar continued to protect the Core Worlds, suffering defeat and victory but in general holding the line and not giving an inch, in some cases even regaining ground. More than anything, he continued to make lightning raids into Coalition territory, frustrating their advance.
In 187 ABY Katar resigned his commission in protest of the Vulpter Armistice for its treatment of the Jedi Order. He is rumored to have even used his family fortune to smuggle Jedi into places to hide. In 195 ABY the assassination of the Chancellor of the Alliance, Katar was called back into service by the new government in order to calm escalating fears. He was appointed as Grand Admiral of the Galactic Alliance (essentially the Secretary of Defense), he made it clear his position that the Jedi be given pardons and re-integrated as part of the Alliance though not in a command role. Regardless he has been preparing the Alliance for war to the best of his ability.

The Leader of the Alliance is the Supreme Chancellor. This app is fine, but at the moment you have him slated as a role akin to Defence Secretary rather than actual leader.
The role of Head of the Alliance Military is also already taken by General Randar Vedek, a character of mine.

Yes, the biggest issue is just the titles and role. The Alliance is still governed by an elected civilian government, the Supreme Chancellor is likely a politician or former Senator, especially given the anti-war sentiment in both the Alliance and Coalition.

CHARACTER APPLICATION
Name: Fidem
Age: 7,200
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Jedi Order
Rank: Grandmaster
Appearance:Standing at 10’, Fidem’s black armor is all any see of him at any point. It is what he is, not what he wears. Underneath he is as most Gen’Dai, a formless mass of nerves and matter with a generalized ‘head’. The armor itself is constructed of a composite, with a heavy degree of Norris Root from an earlier set of armor that has since been destroyed by time and combat, as well as a layer of Mandalorian Iron to ensure it’s survival against lightsaber-wielding opponents. The armor is inscribed, however, with multiple glyphs which can be identified as being reminiscent of texts from the Je'daii Order, from hymns to the unifying code of that Order.
Personality:Quiet, meditative, and passive in much of the world about him, Fidem acts only when truly, in his eyes, necessary. A learner himself, he teaches only by the expectations of those before and about him, not by his own free manner. In much, the Gen’Dai would prefer to study and learn himself. When confronted, he is courteous enough to weigh his own opinions against those of the other, not simply defaulting to his own because they are his own. However, Fidem holds a far darker aspect and, when combat is initiated, leaves little mercy, compassion, or civility in his wake. With the surgical dispassionate skill gathered throughout the ages, Fidem slaughters his enemies.
Force Sensitive: Y
Skills/Powers:Lightsaber Style
Weaponry: N/AFidem’s preferred technique is the usage of Tutaminis in order to catch an opponent's blade or blaster bolt, causing that energy to either detonate in his hand, towards the enemy as would the case be with a lightsaber, or instead to ‘fire’ the blaster bolt at the enemy combatant. With the absorption of enough energy, however, the development of a ‘saber’ can be performed, often longer than what would normally be called a saber and utilized in much the same manner as one would a club. Impacts against an enemy saber or person would normally cause the ‘saber’ to release a portion of it’s energy in a directed explosion or simply release all the energy in a directed explosion if contact is made directly on the individual. This power can be utilized in the form of a usual lightsaber, creating a solid beam to deflect enemy strikes while being more surgical.
Force Powers
While in combat, Fidem prefers to make liberal use of Force Pull and Force Push simultaneously on specific joints, wrenching ankles and wrists out of place if not breaking them completely. Destruction of an enemy’s stance is also performed in this manner, pushes placing an enemy off balance in order to disrupt their attack or movement if not endanger them specifically by pushing that enemy in danger. Though this method, Fidem can create openings in an enemy’s defense that otherwise would not be present, such as pushing a lightsaber out of the way of his own swing. Lastly, this surgical usage of Force Pull and Force Push can be used to disarm an enemy completely, such as the crushing of a lightsaber’s emitter to render it impotent, the crushing of a blaster’s magazine or entire weapon, and things of that nature.
Fidem has a penchant for engaging with the use of objects in a telekinetic manner. Shards of ice or metal might linger about him, ready to be used as missiles to impale an opponent, blades to cut, or to simply explode with the Force, showering opponents in shrapnel.
Ship: N/A
Biography:Born in the vagueness of the Gen’Dai’s early lives, hidden away from the galaxy at large and specializing in such things as philosophy, art, subdued under the belief that all change is temporary, that it is of no use to attempt to alter what will not stay changed, Fidem’s time in peace was one with which he was not at ease. The very notion that if something could not stay changed then it was useless to attempt so seemed a false one, one without capacity or consideration towards the legacy it might bring, towards the followers it might accrue, towards the concept that those who follow might attempt to continue one’s work. The galaxy seemed a broken place, one Fidem wished to fix.
RP Example:
His first acts lay in that of the discovery and attention towards his found powers; they were such that the others had never seen, never understood, such powers that overall were alien towards even the Gen’Dai. Fidem’s travels brought him to Ilum, to a place of such power and strength that the man bathed in it. He meditated there, perfecting a control over a strength unbound, perfecting his senses, his ability to close the eyes and see far, far over that horizon, the power of Ilum itself enabling his sight. In the greatest distance, he could see ships, see a galaxy in motion, in that greatest distance he could see the pirates and the scum. From a watchtower of snow and ice, Fidem observed for a hundred years, watched, perfected, listened. He listened for those who might know what the power was, what the senses were, who could help him bring about the strengthening of his power.
Fidem found few, few who knew of the power and fewer still were of the sort Fidem would consort with. The Jedi were such that he would not deal there, the beings lacking the care and action needed for what was required. Their lack of emotion irked him, the belief that they were always in the right easily comparable to that of the elders Fidem defied. He watched as the Second Great Schism passed by in 6900 BBY, watched as the Exiles went to Korriban. Still the Gen’Dai waited, waited for centuries, crafting a simple little temple from the ice and rock, waiting, listening, seeing. He watched the Republic’s rise, the rise of the Sith, watched and waited and listened to words spoken hundreds of light years away. The Gen’Dai would finally enter the galactic stage during the Mandalorian Wars, a crude little vessel entering their space in 3974 BBY. The vessel, though crashing on it’s entrance into the atmosphere of Cathar, was rapidly found by Mandalorian forces who faced an enemy far unlike the vast majority of their own. Fidem fought, fought tooth and nail, fought and killed what few Mandalorians had been left behind. He could hear them, always, hear their heart beat and their minds churn, and with his power he could misdirect them. Perhaps a sound was heard in the distance, perhaps perhaps, and his hunt was the interesting one. Eventually there were no more Mandalorians to kill, and he waited.
When Revan came, when he and his followers found the remains of war, the remains of the Cathar, Fidem joined the man in his crusade. He was merely an individual, a being with which intended revenge for friends, family, those about him. Change could happen, would happen, a change of blood and bones, a change of minds, the breaking of a people for many centuries to come. It wouldn’t be a permanent change, but it would be enough. Since that point, since the period of Revan’s turn, the Gen’Dai has kept to the shadows, kept his head to the ground, and has forever watched. When the Jedi Civil War began, he sided with Revan. When the man was captured, he slid away, slid away to Korriban where he listened and watched, listened to the ancient Sith lords, to their words. Darth Malek’s ascendancy was one with which Fidem did not concern himself; the clash of the former Darth Revan and Malek was interesting to state the least. The death of the Star Forge was a tragedy. Yet the actions of one could not halt the culmination of events, could not save what would be used for change.
And, when the Sith Civil War came about, Darth Fidem killed all those about him, locking himself away in the tomb of Sorzus Syn. When one Darth Atrox proclaimed himself lord over all, stated that he would resurrect the Sith, bring their unity, break those who would not follow, the tomb was opened. The events following that are not well known, though it is known that the Darth would return to the tomb of Syn some fifty years following this opening. What is known to most about those events preceding his second retreat was that he left several trails of bodies, some allies who would not accept failure, many enemies upon the battlefield, and Darth Atrox himself lay dead. Fidem had failed as a follower and, as such, had made a point to let that failure not stand. Before that retreat, Fidem wiped himself away from most remembered history. And yet, still, he retreated into that tomb.
He did not emerge, finding that the world and galaxy about him had changed much, created much, and destroyed much. Fidem fell into a meditative slumber, one of the Gen’Dai’s famed hibernations. He slept and the tomb stayed sealed away, dust and time and war adding to each layer above him until, only in the years following the Galactic Civil War, would the tomb be unearthed again. Those Remnant soldiers who did so, under the orders of Jerec and Desann, would lay dead by the retinue of droids Fidem had lead there before and in the chaos of Katarn’s arrival would never be found again. Awoken, Fidem made his own preparations and left the planet as quiet as possible. The Star Destroyer, the Vengeance, was in lower orbit and Fidem, capturing one shuttle, boarded her. In Fidem’s opinion, his conversion of the crew into molded hands for his use was a crowning achievement, one that was perhaps not necessary on a material basis but one which was strikingly necessary nonetheless. Those who once knew of the tombs, of what may lay inside, could not know forever. Fidem would not allow it. Over the course of five days, five days of constant meditation in one of the maintenance spaces, constant pouring of the Force and his will into the task at hand, five days of pawing at the Dark Side which emanated from the planet below and welding it to his will, Fidem held the crew in his hands as those hands. He converted them and, having finally done so, emerged from his hiding space. Most had seen him in dreams, spent nights awake and hearing his whispers in their ears. They did not know what he was. The question was removed from their minds before it could even be coherently formed.
Fidem took the warship to Ilum, cutting all communication and disposing with most of the crew with the vast gulfs of space. Some resisted, however, Dark Jedi of the Inquisitorius leading crew in defiance, in loyalty to their old orders. Fidem slaughtered many in a mechanical manner, in a calm manner. It had to be done, he reasoned to himself. It simply had to be. The space above Ilum had become unguarded, those stationed there leaving their posts as the Emperor’s dead grasp weakened, as the Empire’s strength waned. After their disposal, Fidem took the massive warship and plunged it, down through the atmosphere, in some opinions crashing it and in others landing it as best one could a warship of it’s size. Snow covered many of the chunks quickly, fires in many an area being put out, and Fidem finally had returned home. Over the course of many years, he and his cult stood on the planet, the warship they lived within slowly becoming more and more covered by white and ice, until finally in the year 100 ABY, the ship was empty, save for one, and covered, save for the bridge.
He watched. He had always been watching. From Ilum, he saw the Vong’s invasion, their cascade and march into the inner realms of the galaxy. One wielder of the Force, though, could not halt that storm, that wave of death, and so he only watched. They were defeated, just as Jacen Solo was defeated in the years following, just as Dark Krayt was defeated. He watched as the galaxy itself seemed to diminish and falter. When the Fel Empire fell into civil war, Fidem reached out to many of the survivors, the acolytes and disciples of Force Orders who had become hunted, and in many a dream beckoned them to Ilum. Some few accepted that invitation, coming to Ilum and the Old Master, working on their own perfection aboard a ruined vessel.
When the Jedi Order urged the Alliance to invasion in 160 ABY, Fidem again attempted to urge them otherwise, though to no avail. The Jedi themselves had become enthralled in the aspects of war and governing, entangled in it. The Gen’Dai could not affect them, though his own Order grew. They trained. They learned of the Force, though Fidem halted the use of the lightsaber for fear of relying upon that blade as their only means. They had children, families, and the teachings of both Sith and Jedi melded together once more. Emotion is merely an aspect of life, not the dictator of it, that was the teachings of the Old Master. As the war raged on, Fidem would influence more to come to Ilum, never revealing himself truly to the Masters of the Alliance, of the Jedi. When the Jedi were banned, he could merely watch and whisper, though when a large coven of Jedi retreated to Ilum, to attempt to build anew, they found another already present. Fidem welcomed them into his home, into the temple he had built, into the family he had forged, and they accepted that invitation.
In 189 ABY, Fidem would be named as the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order and, since then, he has continued to watch, to whisper, and to teach those about him.Notes:

Fidem’s Appearance
Finding that being a Gen’Dai or being known for being ancient is a hassle and annoyance at best and a detriment to trust at worst, Fidem takes care to not mention or make known that he is either of these two things. Instead, Fidem claims to be an Iron Knight constructed in the period 120 ABY sent to guard Ilum.
Jedi Order under Grandmaster Fidem
His Force ‘Aura’ is kept relatively little on purpose, a product of Fidem’s desire to remain under the radar as far as corruption might be seen. Due to his years of meditation within close proximity to Sith artifacts, the Gen’Dai has a suspiciously high degree of the Dark Side exhibited in his aura, something which he would prefer to not be noticed. In addition to this, due to his significant years of age, Fidem has a naturally high degree of this aura, far greater than an Iron Knight should. To combat both of these facts, with a degree of constant effort he keeps himself relatively little in the Force.The Jedi Order today is greatly similar to the Altis Sect of the Jedi Order, mostly due to the necessity of the era and the situation Jedi find themselves in. Allowing for multiple Padawans to one Master or Knight for training, guidance, and aid, the allowing of families for all those in the Order, and the allowing off emotion and emotional attachments, compared to the Old Republic’s Jedi they are almost free-spirited. However, there are some differences.
White Snow, formerly Vengeance
- Most Jedi do not leave Ilum, due to the fact that capture means interrogation, interrogation means discovery, and as such, only the most skilled are given leave to go and find other Force-Sensitives. Those who do leave the Jedi Order without permission are hunted down and brought back, for the safety of all on Ilum. Leaving the Jedi Order is allowed, but one must submit to a Memory Rub in order to keep the secret of their existence.
- The use of the lightsaber is not required, though is heavily discouraged. This is due to the inherent nature of the lightsaber as a Force-Sensitive tool and as such the inherent suspicion or outright hostility that would be incurred if such a tool is discovered. In addition to this, it is considered a crutch by the Grandmaster to utilize. However, many Masters or Knights still train their students in this art, seeing it as having more benefits than simple swordplay.
As the current ‘temple’ of the Jedi Order, this former Imperial warship lays mostly buried under Ilum’s snowdrifts and ice. Only her bridge structure, a blocky affair far less like a usual Star Destroyer, rises above the snow, as well as a small degree of her upper hull. The White Snow is mainly vacant of any habitation, that power being shut down, with multiple upper decks being inhabited by the Jedi Order. What power the vessel does have is reserved for more severe situations. It should be noted that, despite the fact that the ship did land poorly, it is theoretically possible to be launched again albeit with significant damage to the lower hull.

The One Sith really doesn't deal with masters and apprentices anymore. Your character could have been recruited, but they would not call their recruiter 'master', since the One Sith only as one lord.

He is rumored to have even used his family fortune to smuggle Jedi into places to hide. After a few quiet years he re-emerged running for Senator of the Bothan Sector, running on a platform of low taxes, and strong defense spending combined with his war hero status propelled him to a massive victory and he quickly became an influential player in. After the assaination of the previous Chief of State (It says chancellor in the OP but Wookiepedia says the Head of state if named the Chief of State) in 195 ABY, Katar ran for office to replace them being elected in 196 ABY with a strong coalition behind him.
His tenure has been marked by strong economic policies propelling massive growth throughout the galaxy as well as a massive increase in defense spending and intelligence networks to combat against the Coalition. Additionally he has successfully pursued strong relations with the Hutts ensuring their neutrality or potential alliance during a future conflict with the Coalition. Finally he has invested into starting up both droid factories and clone trooper facilities to augment the volunteer forces of the Alliance, one of his largest failings as Chief being to implement a peacetime draft.
After being re-elected by a wide margin Katar is preparing to negotiate with the Coalition for extended peace but is more than prepared for conflict.

Name: Serilda Raineheart
Age: 55
Gender: Female
Allegiance paid to: The Coalition
Rank: Consul of the Coalition
Appearance (Picture preferred, if not, detailed description accepted):
Personality: Serilda, in her personal life, is nothing but a cold and cynical person. Through her years serving the Coalition, and rising to the rank she has today, she has learnt to be extremely pessimistic about any person, or people. The position of the Consul only attracts the most psychotic people who believe they were destined to achieve that role as the 'de facto' leader of the Coalition. Therefore, if assessed, she would be easily diagnosed as a psychopath. Serilda has a lack of empathy, an extreme grandiose feeling of self-worth, cynical nature and lack of personal feeling and understanding. Part of that is because of the environment of the Coalition and her family dilemma, in which she was thrusted into the politics of power since a very young age. What is especially interesting about her personality, is her paranoia, that has arisen from her position. She routinely analyses the people she works with, and regularly suspects them of conspiring against her, as would anyone in her place.
Force Sensitive: N
Skills/Powers: Authority over the National Security Forces of the Coalition. The National Security Forces of the Coalition, or the NSFC for short, is a group of well-armed elite forces dedicated to the protection and servitude of the Consul of the Coalition. Consul Raineheart established this branch of the military for the 'protection of Coalition assests', as quoted by the Consul herself. Her real reasoning, however, was much more cunning. The NSFC is to re-enforce her position as the Consul to any possible internal rivals, as all members of the NSFC are zealot followers of Consul Raineheart, and nobody else. However, their main issue lie in their lacking numbers and lack of heavy-duty firepower. In the case of a coup, they may attempt to hold-out in favour of the Consul, but they cannot match the man-power of the formal military.
Weaponry: On her person, all the time, Serilda has a ELG-3A Blaster and Lethal Pills.
Ship (If you have one):
Official ship of the Consul. It's 70 meters long and 50 meters wide, with a a height of 15 meters. It has a state-of-the-art luxury bar and lounge, fitted with its' own amenities and basic resources (including life support). Most importantly, the starship is armed with four laser cannons and the capabilities to transport 20 individuals, both military or otherwise.
Biography: Born on the year 145 ABY, a year after the assassination of the Empress of the Fel Empire and a year before the intervention of the Galactic Alliance and the Jedi Council. Serilda's father was the leader of the largest private prison holdings in the entire ex-Fel Empire. With the collapse of order in the Empire, and therefore the lack of justice, Serilda's father: Canton, armed several factions. Her youth was littered with stories of death and devastation, as her father would re-tell the stories of the day at the dinner table. He himself was not fighting, but he had direct contacts to those on the ground, whom he was sponsoring through Credit's and man-power. Fortunately enough, the Raineheart Family allied with the correct factions that were victorious in the civil war. This era not only expanded the Family's power in the new Coalition, but it drived Serilda's disdain for the Galactic Alliance and for the Jedi Council. She believed it was an interference into the sovereign borders of the ex-Empire as the war began to settle and she matured. Serilda was only 18 when the war finally ceased, but she was disgusted by the terms decided upon by their leader's. The de-militarisation, in her eyes, was a sign of defeat and servitude to the Galactic Alliance and the Jedi Council. Using her inherited privilege, Serilda oversaw the arming and training of thousands of convicts under her command, it violated the treaty already established.
It was not only her, but she was inspired by the other resistance to the intergalactic terms, as she described as a 'Jedi conspiracy'. This spurred her expansion of the prisoner army, that was shaping up to have stronger capabilities compared to many other prisoner regiments enforced by the Coalition. One of the greatest turning points in her life was on a night in 168 ABY, when she received a video-message from her father, calling for the dismantling of her prisoner forces. He was oblivious to the army she had created on her own, hence, when Canton discovered he immediately demanded for his disbandment. Canton cited many threats it faced to the business, especially with the Galactic Alliance. The Raineheart Family had extensive trade with both sides, but mostly with the Coalition. The fear of losing capital was not a factor for Serilda, who was driven by ideological motives. That night she ordered a bounty hunter to eliminate her rivals to the position of head of house. Almost simultaneously, her Mother, Father and Brother were assassinated. Serilda rose to power and seized all of the family assests. This was welcomed by the elites of the Coalition, who had suspicions that the private prison corporation was trading with the Alliance. Serilda cut all ties with the Alliance and continued to pursue who militaristic agenda.
Her military prowess soon began to set an example for many in the bureaucracy, and Serilda made strides in climbing the ladder. Her position in the political life was already substantial high, due to the inheritance of the prison industry. She single-handedly controlled a super-majority of the prisoners fighting in the 'Great Patriotic War' (as she coined it) and used this authority to slowly make her ascendancy to the Consulate. In an effort to assassinate possible threats, she'd have her forces 'discover' the dead body of a General on the battlefield, accompanied with a realistic story. In the midst of war, the bureaucracy of the Coalition was looking for a new potential candidate for the Consul. There was a growing war-weariness and dissatisfaction with the current leadership that could not be ignored. Serilda Rainheart, a young-ish female (39 years old), a devout Coalitionist and military leader was the leading option. She was selected as the new Consul in 184 ABY. It was her personal endeavour to institute anti-Jedi propaganda and attempt to establish a cult of personality around her image, as she was the first female leader of the Coalition. Although she is aware that it's really a big internal game, she is also attempting to create foundations with her personality with the people. She, of course, is depicted as a far more friendlier, yet stern, mother figure for the entire Coalition to unite behind. That brings us to today.
