Legend

this man was the son of a petty thief, and was native to the planet Elrood. After trying to attack an off-duty Imperial officer, Kullan was beaten to within an inch of his life and given two choices: go to jail or enlist in the Imperial Army. He enlisted, and became known as a resourceful, brave warrior who could pilot an AT-ST as if it were part of himself. However, his background was never far from his mind, and he set himself up as his unit's procurement officer. In this position, he worked to obtain the best supplies for his unit, only to turn around and sell them to black marketeers in return for lesser-quality supplies. In this way, Kullan made a small fortune for himself without the Empire knowing about it. The fortune did Kullan little good personally, as he gambled most of it away. When a more honorable officer discovered his duplicity and threatened to expose him, Kullan used all his political favors to destroy his accuser's credability and then got himself placed in charge of a small command on the planet Tasariq to avoid further attention.
