Biography
Early Life
George O Rourke was born in Year -3 Day 172 onto the planet Glee Anselm. The Blue Nautolan was one of two children, his sister Tori O Rourke and their parents Ariel O Rourke and Glen O Rourke. While he was a baby his family lived well, his father worked 8 hour days to provide for the family and his mother looked after him and his sister. However at the age of 4 George suffered the loss of his father. His father set off for work as he usually would, however this was the last time George was to see his father. He didn't know what his father did for work, however he knows that it was what got him killed. His father did not return that evening. By the late evening George's mother had found the grave news that her husband was killed. She was not told how, or where, just that he was in fact dead.
His mother looked after the two kids for a few months before the family become low on money and his mother needed to provide financial support. George was left to look after his little sister Tori. Tori was 2 years younger than George and always looked up to George as a role model. She loved her big brother and the two got a long very well. While their mother was out working they would walk around their neighborhood playing games and having fun. However some people in the neighborhood did not like this and would yell at them, at times like this George would always first check his sisters safety before his own. At the age of 10 George lost the rest of his family to men he had no clue about at first. It was a nice day and his family were sitting at home when three hooded men ran into the room and attempted to take the family. He did not know why, but as they grabbed him he saw his sister in pain, it motivated George to protect his sister. As the men tried to run out of the shack George fought out of the grip of the man that held him, he grabbed a wooden bat that was within arms reach his his attack with it. By this time the two other men had his mother and sister were out of the shack and almost on a land speeder that they escaped with. As the men struggled to get the two into the speeder his mother got free of the man, hit him in the face and began to run toward George. The man pulled a DD6 from his covered belt, he fired three shots into his mother. Ariel dropped to the ground, motionless. The man retrieved the body and left in the speeder. George could do nothing but sit and watch it all pan out. His eyes tearing, he dropped to his knees, dropped his head into his hands and let his emotions run. He could barely believe what happened. After an hour or so of sitting there shocked, reality kicked in. He knew he was now by himself with no one to turn to. Knowing the man that attacked him would regain consciousness soon he had to flee the city.
George ran from the city to a small town not too far from the city, but far enough to get away from the man chasing him. He found himself in this town with no friends, no one to rely on and most importantly no where to stay. He wondered the streets for a few weeks. Stealing bread and small amounts of food from unsuspecting vendors keeping him healthy. Soon he found himself in an old abandoned shed. He had found a place to stay. He then slowly met with the towns folk that he was going to live with for the next 7 years. He got a job in a local shop, cleaning and attending customers needs. It wasn't much, but it was enough to keep him going, legally without stealing. Each week he would keep a little aside, a saving he would soon use to flee Glee Anselm and leave his past behind.
The Great Escape
George had been looking through the newspaper in search of new job opportunities. He found one with the title "Are you ready to serve?" He suddenly read more into this, he found a spot available in the Jedi Coalition Navy. This was the perfect opportunity, he could get a great new job, and leave his home behind in search of a better life. He followed the instructions listed on the cut out and within days had a reply from the Jedi Coalition accepting his job application. Within another few days George was on his way to the Jedi Coalition HQ. He was now a member of the Jedi Coalition, all that was left before becoming a full member was to complete the academy. George completed this as took his post in the Navy branch of the Jedi Coalition. For the next few months George went on working for the Jedi Coalition, learning new things and meeting new people. During this time George had a small work within the engineering department working on creating cities on Jedi Coalition home world. With each different thing George did he learnt different aspects of the government. In the mean time he was promoted to the rank of Petty Officer Second Class. Soon after that a tough choice had to be made. The Jedi Coalition dissolved into the original organizations, The Jedi Order and The now named Arkanian Brotherhood. It was a tough choice indeed however George decided to follow the Arkanian Brotherhood. He left many of his friends at this stage, all left, but never forgotten. However George still had his friends and a strong leader.
Arkanian Brotherhood
This is where George has resided since the dissolution. It was going to be a long few month getting the new government up and running. George still continued to serve the now small Navy however after the dissolution the Arkanian Brotherhood Navy had lost a few of its high ranking members, meaning some of the lower members now had to rise up and take charge. George was one of these people. After the government got up and running George was now promoted to Warrant Officer and was now one of the senior members of Navy. However there was still some depth to the team. The Arkanian Brotherhood has came very far since the dissolution and begins to grow back towards what the Jedi Coalition once was. Over the next few months George consolidated his position and continued to work flawlessly for the Brotherhood. However, he also keeps in mind, his little sister Tori. She is the strength that pushes him to work so hard for the Brotherhood, the motivation to keep on living, and loving. This strength has allowed him to again rise to the rank of Ensign within the Navy. He is now one of the leading officers and has come very far from his Jedi Coalition Petty Officer days. George continued working flawlessly and received the rank of Lieutenant. After working very hard for many months George was given the opportunity to become Director of Member Resources, without a second thought George took the offer to become the new Director. His pursuit to achieve is strengthened by this great achievement which has left George and his co-workers pleased.
Ships
Shinning Light
Shinning Light is the first to the George O Rourke ship garage. This was an incentive gift from the Arkanian Brotherhood. Forever to be relished and used to its full potential. It was named Shinning Light, as it bought a new light to his life. With George acquiring a ship of his own he no longer need to rely on company ships. This is the first step for George as he becomes self sufficient. One day he could be completely self sufficient, only time will tell.
Dark Side
The Dark Side was won through an Arkanian Raffle, the name comes from the interesting black and red paint scheme attracted to it. The small Sith Starfighter is Georgie's new addition to his fleet.
