History
Clan Vellin
Clan Vellin was an unusual tribe of Kiffar. Rather than being trained in the art of war, and tied to ancestral territories, this clan was a nomadic group of artists, musicians, and story tellers. Being native to Kiffu, they avoided much of the troubles that plagued the sister planet of Kiffex. While most Kiffar remained on their home planets, several members of the Vellin clan traveled off world to seek their fortunes in the visual and performing arts. In recent years, the clan has taken a more militant stance, after suffering several attacks at the hands of hostile tribes. It was in one of these attacks that Kurt's father, Gustaf, was killed. This prompted a young and distraught Kurt to take up martial arts, and put his musical arts aside, along with many other members of the clan. Clan Vellin was divided between maintaining the old tradition of the arts, and focusing on combative prowess for self defense, defying almost a century of peace and tradition.
A Chance Encounter
One day, while secluded in the mountains, practicing his instruments, Kurt noticed a flare, launched from somewhere nearby. He decided to investigate, and slung his trusty slugthrower over his shoulder. He came across a small Imperial listening post, over ran with howlrunners. Several scout troopers lay dead, and a few more barely clung to life. With Kurt's help, the team leader and the surviving members saved the outpost and drove back the howlrunners. After surveying the damage, the Sergeant in charge of the camp thanked Kurt, and made a deal not to detain him for trespassing and discovering the secret outpost if he signed up for the Imperial Academy, stating that marksman skills such as his shouldn't go to waste. He agreed, deciding that it was a better alternative to rotting in prison.
The Imperial Academy
Kurt Vellin spent his time at the Academy being trained in the art of ground warfare, learning the basics of combat, being a proper Imperial soldier, and commanding storm troopers. He graduated and was given the rank of Second Leiutenant in the Imperial Army.
