Fel Crew ('The Unfair Advantage')

Dude, it's not a contest. Lol.

I just meant that Wade's gone through a pretty major life-changing event and I haven't really gotten to explore who he is now.

Vyra, and Raan don't exactly hold a warm part in Ronin's heart.

'sup.

Good question Dante. When in the Imperial war machine, Fel was still learning. At first, it was his ticket off the Tarisian underworld, and out into the 'verse. Then he discovered piloting, and yeah, for a while, there was a love affair where he swallowed the doctrine, because it meant he got to fly. Then it became family, not unlike the Crew. He commanded a squadron, and he did his best to keep his people alive, even in the face of overwhelming opposition, bad orders, faulty intel, poor command structure. The love affair ended, replaced with a fierce determination to do right by 'his' people.

Over the months and years, he also saw the chinks in the Imperial dogma, like an altar-boy who has seen one too many foul things done in the name of the church. He grew to fear and loathe the people who sent his squadron on suicide missions. And as the numbers of skilled pilots, veterans dwindled and he was left training green recruits, yet facing the same odds, he became a little mad, stretching in the pilots' seat, taking extraordinary risks to 'save' his own people, and hating himself more with every one that didn't come home. 

He became insubordinate, a terrible officer, a liability in the officer corps. And he was disciplined, busted down to barely a flight officer. But they couldn't ground him. He was too valuable in the cockpit. So it became a self-fulfilling prophesy. Ever worse odds, more medals, ever more losses. The day over Dantooine was inevitable. As was his incarceration. Everything since has been a direct result of that time. 

Fel's reluctance to trust, his monumental fear of losing one of his own, his lack of close relationships (Liya and Jace have been with the crew three years IRL, and I'd be hard pressed to find a time they shared more than a few sentences with their Cap'n at any one time.) His inability to love, his fear and hatred of the Imperials, his distrust of the Force, the few items he holds dear... all of it points to his past, though outside of Malora, I'm not sure how many in the crew really know that. 

I dont know. I always pictured Fel dying because he went down with his ship. Like he got wounded or something, knew he wasn't going to make it, so he tricked the crew into leaving, and then like, suicided his ship into something large, threatening, and highly explosive when little ships run into it. But only little ships. Because LOGIC.

Fel and Dante are pretty similar, honestly. Obvious differences aside, they have absolute loyalty to those that are in their family. There isn't much they wouldn't do for them. Add the smuggler ship fetish into the mix, and presto, lol.

Honestly, Dante will probably die in a similar fashion, just with a sword or some weapon in his hand. Probably blast a door to close on you guys.

I've always imagined that Liya will go out with such a bang, there won't be anything left of her to be recovered or buried.

But not for a good long time.

Wade's gonna live forever.

>_>

<_<

And then die alone.
