Captain Colton Trevor Hatfield, some times known by the alias of Gordon Flash or Flash Gordon, is a sentient of the galaxy that carries very mixed opinions not only from his advisories, but also his affiliates. Several that would occupy his same line of work claim they cannot respect him due to him "Coming up to Fast" in the galaxy. This is most likely directed to the fact he was literally unknown to most anyone anywhere until the public broadcast of his participation in the murder of Avicii Tempah, founder and cowardly betrayer of the Ellipsis Pirates. Despite the lack of respect and confidence he frequently received from Pirate's that had been behind the wheel of a ship much longer than he, Colton has not allowed anyone or anything to stop his ambitions and strides for success..
Born but not Raised
The Escape
Many Kiffar have great tales of their clans, or their heritage to the great clans of past. Some would tell you of their fathers and mothers teachings, making them the men and women they are to this day. Tales of how they faced themselves in the wilds and discovered who they really were. In the case of Colton, the tale does not involve clans, heritage, or achievement in trials. Rather his story brings about the realism that the galaxy is a cold place, and that more times than not the youth of so many sentient races are left to die simply because they were unwanted. Born to a mother of Corellian Blood, and a father exiled for his love of an outsider above his own clan - the name Colton Trevor Hatfield was stained and spat upon before he had even had the chance to leave the womb. His birth site had originally been selected on Kiffar, but within the last few days of her pregnancy his mother Laura Anne Tiyana was forced to leave against her will. The clan of his father, Artim Mocaxa (Hatfield had yet to be adopted into his name) was rather strict about their traditions and members of blood. A child such as Colton was not only frowned upon, but often times put to death due to cross bred blood. The Mocaxa claimed to be of the Moxla Clan blood, a major Kiffar tribe. Whether this was true or not mattered not, their belief in it was real enough and when word reached Laura that her and her unborn child was to be murdered, she fled as quickly as possible. Her plan was to return to Corellia and raise her child a civilized, Imperial citizen where he could enjoy and reap the benefits of the finest things in the galaxy - but as stated, his name was cursed before he was ever born and fate would not allow such a soft lifestyle for a man that would be so wicked.
Before the ship even made it to orbit, Laura went into labor and the pilot knew that neither the mother or the child would ever survive on a ship without a medical bay. Being of non Kiffar decent himself the pilot had no reason to hold bias to the woman or her child, and further more the fact that the father was not on board was already a sign of a rough future for the child. Taking pity on them both, he took the ship into port at Kiffu, and instructed Laura to follow his lead should she want her and her child to have a future. While not Kiffar himself, the pilot had developed some close friends with some of the local clans on Kiffu and knew that he could get medical help. He took the ship to Chimayo, a city in the mountains. Once there he introduced himself as Lance Colton Hatfield, and Laura as his wife. After giving a short explanation that she was in labor with his child the locals quickly gave the help. Approximately an hour later Laura gave birth to a son, who in honor of the pilots heroism in her time of need, she named Colton Trevor Hatfield..
For a while after his birth, things were peaceful for Laura and Colton, at least as peaceful as it could get so to say. Once her health was stable and it was safe to travel with her newborn, Laura fled back to her home on Corellia where her family was awaiting them. The troubles Laura faced upon returning were great, she had tainted her family name and on top of it all she had a bastard child that was mixed with a "wild species of man" as it was put. All the same, the family had no choice but to accept her and Colt as one of their own and they did their best to hide his bloodline from the public, and even from him! Six years came and went and as far as Colton knew he was a Corellian child just like his brother Dain. He even went by Colton Trevor Thurith for a while - an alias given to him by his grandparents. Most of the friends and associates of the Thurith family bought it, but others that knew Laura and the family better than most questioned the legitimacy of Colton. Over the six years growing up Colton had received the standard Imperial Youth Education, and for the most part was like all the other children. He did however have a natural love for acrobatics and was often in trouble for climbing out on ledges and trying to perform flips and other stunts.
During the six years Laura had worked on restoring her name back in Corellia and had made some rather serious ties in the game of Imperial politics. She had earned her way to Planetary Minister of Economics for Corellia a huge role to fill that had an equally huge paycheck to provide her and her family. Needless to say she also met a male suitor, an officer with the Imperial Army. Captain Edvaan Dain Thurith. The two had met a few months after she had returned, and a year later were married with a child soon to come. Despite knowing the truth about Colton, Edvaan treated him like his own flesh and blood and would even claim to be his biological father if asked! Despite his rough cut attitude due to years within a Stormtrooper Legion he had a big heart and loved his family. Even after his biological child, Dain Anthony Thurith, was born he did not make any difference between the two boys and for those six years the family grew up closely. As it would stand however, all good things must come to an end. In the case of Colton and Dain it was a tragic end.
Bloodstains
About the time that Colton was seven, and Dain six, a lot of violence had been erupted on Corellia. The Economy was failing due to the Empire's raises in taxes, and to make matters worse a minor plague had swept across the planet killing off much of its own food sources which forced the locals to now pay more for food that had to be delivered from other planets. The Imperial Governors and Moffs had backed away claiming the problems were local not government, and left the responsibility and blame on political heads such as Laura Thurith. To make matters worse for her, Edvaan her husband had recently been promoted to Colonel which forced him to deploy a great distance from his family which forced Laura to not only do her job as Planetary Minister but also raise her two sons alone. The stress seemed to have finally caught up with her because she had announced her resignation to her fellow Ministers and had already scheduled for her family to be moved with her husband on base. If asked, both Colton and Dain will tell you they remember quiet well the last time they saw their mother. She stood at a podium in front of thousands of Corellians. She wore a solid white suit, and a white hat with a veil with a single red rose tucked into the band that ran around it. Colt stood at her left, and Dain at her right both holding her hands. She began her speech with "My Corellian Brothers and Sisters, it has become a sad day for me..". Those were her last words before she fell over backwards, he chest nearly missing from a precisely placed shot from a sniper. A Storm Trooper by the name of Alec Rhellin, a personal friend of Edvaan's quickly swooped up the two children before the sniper could make his next shots to eliminate them as well. While no records show where they went, rumors are stretched far and wide. What is known is that only Dain made it to his father.
One piece of a clue was an old holodisc journal that belonged to a small group of slavers that called themselves the Kakaon Trapmen. There was mention of finding a child that wanted to join them and become a killer and the description of the child is a very close match to Colton at that age. The journal stated that they kidnapped the boy with intentions of taking him to Hutt Space for sell, but they were forced to abort their jump to Hutt Space due to engine problems. Instead they came out of hyperspace at the Kiffex system..
