Elrik

Elrik is a Rebel operative on Ord Mantell, where he makes a living as a Savrip hunter.

History
Elrik was born on Ord Mantell in 56 BBY, the son of moisture farmers who leased a plot of land a few miles from Junkport. They lived simple, difficult lives without much excess, but all that changed in 37 BBY, when Taxer Sundown, the land baron who owned the property they leased on was killed. Sundown was being financed by Baroness Omnino, a female Venan who ruled the planet Vena, in an effort to control the deportation of Mantellian Savrips, which the Venan nobility considered a delicacy. When their operation fell apart, Elrick and his father had the foresight to step into the void. Using that modest savings they had, they purchased the appropriate equipment and began hunting Savrip themselves, turning their moisture farm into a ranch. After years of merely eking out a subsistence living, the family finally began making a solid living hunting Savrip to sell their meat and leading expeditions for others to hunt the creatures.

The Galactic Republic reforming as the Galactic Empire in 19 BBY had little impact on the family and their operation initially, but that gradually changed in as the Empire began increasing its presence on the planet. The leader of the sector, Grand Moff Vanko, instituted taxes and tariffs that cut into the business and stormtroopers and other imperial representatives on-planet regularly bullied and extorted locals, further caused tension. Things came to a head in 5 BBY, when Elrik’s mother and father were both killed by stormtroopers in a botched raid on a supposed Rebel Alliance safehouse in Worlport.

Elrik immediately swore revenge when the circumstances of their deaths reached him and intended on going after the stormtroopers himself, but he was stopped by Jo’da Corsto, the Rebel Alliance member whom the Imperials were looking for. Apologizing for the mistake in Worlport, Corsto recruited Elrick into Alliance Special Operations. Over the next few years, Elrik would receive the requisite training to serve in Rebel SpecOps both on world and off.

During the beginning of the Galactic Civil War, his ranch served as one of the main base of operations for Task Force 35C, a Rebel Special Ops Teams based on Ord Mantell. While Elrik often accompanied Task Force 35C into the field, as the conflict between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance/New Republic raged on, he generally fell into an administrative role.
