Biography
Childhood
The only child of Corellian diplomats Lance and Nia Al'zandar, Jax was an exceptionally bright child. He showed an uncanny ability, for a child, to be still and pay attention. This proved to be one of his biggest assets, as he got an education like very few others.
Because one or both of his parents were usually called away to negotiate deals on behalf of the Galactic Empire and it's Core affiliates, Jax was tutored while aboard a CR-90 Corvette, C-3 Passenger Liner or some other luxury ship, at times by some of the galaxy's top university professors. He also had the benefit of being able to occasionally sit in on diplomacy talks and negotiations. He got to see first hand the power of the spoken word. How saying just the right thing can cause life long peace or life ending war. Jax's parents were his heroes, until he met the pirate who kidnapped him.
At age 11, Jax and his mother were captured by the dreaded Hidden Dagger pirates. The two were held for ransom. A burden on Lance's shoulder, as it was a price he could not pay in full. Diplomacy was attempted in regaining his family, but in the end he was only able to free one hostage for the ransom that nearly bankrupted him. That hostage was his wife, Nia.
For 6 months Lance worked feverishly to attain the credits needed to get back his son. For 6 months a boy was at the mercy of villainous thugs. If not for Commander Jinn-Tu Wisslar, a high ranking member of the pirate organization, the unspeakable may have happened to young Jax. Wisslar looked after Jax, and made him feel as comfortable as possible given the situation. Within those months Jax learned to appreciate the freedom these pirates had, and how happy they seemed, despite the violence they inflict on the galaxy. Wisslar showed Jax that terror and bloodshed are powerful negotiating tactics just as the spoken word, often times with a swifter result. A special bond was formed between the two. Wisslar was Jax's personal personification of the storied swashbuckler. Jax reminded Wisslar of innocence long lost.
After 5 months and 20 days the ransom payment for Jax was made. It was agreed that Wisslar would personally return the boy to his parents. Having been responsible for Jax during his captivity, Wisslar wanted to make sure he got home safely. At the drop off, right before turning over the child, Jinn-Tu Wisslar presented Jax with a sword. In doing so, he imparted his final words to his young friend. Words that made an indelible impression on the boy: Take this sword, the Starblade. It has served Nobles and Pirates alike in it's many centuries. Now it is yours, young Al`zandar. Respect it, and it will protect you well into your old age, regardless of your path. Jax took the sword with great reverence, and watched the Pirate board his ship. He watched as the ship moved effortlessly into the atmosphere. He watched till it disappeared beyond the clouds.
Jax re-acclimated to being at home rather easily. Even as a child he was very practical, and understood what took place. But what the boy could not understand is why his parents, his heroes, abandoned him. The child could not comprehend the adult decisions that had been made. Despite this episode in young Jax's life, he wasn't affected too much. He was still a vibrant, intelligent, inqusitive child. However, two changes were distinctly noticeable. Jax no longer fully trusted his parents, though he loved them dearly. In addition, he became cruelly mischievous at times. A trait that would develop as he got older, along with his more virtuous characteristics.
Teenage Years
Jax's teen years found him growing into a fine young Corellian noble. The family's financial woes have recovered ten fold since the kidnapping incident, and they had never been happier. Jax's education continued as he attended some of the finest institution of higher learning around the Core, including the University of Alderaan, Corellia University and the University of Coruscant.
At the age of seventeen, having completed his academic career, Jax enlisted in the Imperial Navy. There he became acquainted with his two greatest passions: Blasters and Starships.(TO BE CONTINUED)
