X. Biography
Timeline/Chronology:
3642–3636 BBY (Age 0–6) | Birth and Civilian Registration
Xaelik Morin was born on Balmorra under contested Imperial administration following the Treaty period. He was registered as a civilian dependent within an active industrial zone, with no special designation at birth. Maternal employment in Imperial-aligned scientific research placed the household under routine administrative oversight. Paternal service in logistics resulted in periodic security reviews but no disciplinary flags. Early developmental records showed no confirmed Force sensitivity or behavioral deviation. No intervention, relocation, or special monitoring was authorized during this stage.
3636–3629 BBY (Age 6–13) | Familial Loss and Low-Level Observation
The death of Corren Morin during a Republic strike triggered a formal review of the household’s stability. Xaelik displayed increased social withdrawal but no antisocial or disruptive behavior. Educational performance remained within expected parameters for his zone classification. Minor kinetic irregularities were noted but assessed as environmentally induced rather than Force-related. Low-level observation protocols were initiated without escalation. Environmental exposure to sustained conflict was logged as a contributing stress factor.
A kinetic anomaly during a Republic patrol sweep exceeded civilian tolerance thresholds and triggered automatic screening protocols. Subsequent evaluation confirmed Force sensitivity within Sith jurisdictional criteria. Xaelik was immediately removed from civilian registry and transferred to Sith authority without appeal. Familial contact authorization was suspended per standard procedure. The transfer occurred without public record or ceremonial acknowledgment. The event marked the formal termination of his civilian status.
Xaelik entered the Sith Academy under restricted acolyte status with standard limitations on autonomy and advancement. Initial evaluations emphasized disciplined compliance, technical reliability, and emotional containment. Peer interaction was minimal and non-disruptive. Initiative and innovation were assessed as below institutional preference but not deficient. No specialization track was assigned during this period. Oversight remained observational rather than corrective.
Continued assessment showed consistency in performance without notable escalation or decline. Xaelik demonstrated endurance and technical learning but avoided competitive dominance displays. Instructors noted low influence over peers and absence of ambition signaling. His retention was justified on reliability rather than promise. No advancement pathway was authorized, nor was expulsion recommended. Status remained provisional and unresolved.
A formal review resulted in retention without promotion and reassignment to controlled dueling and tomb support duties. During a supervised tomb familiarization exercise, Xaelik exceeded prescribed endurance limits without authorization. The incident resulted in permanent physical scarring and required extraction. Institutional response included a formal censure and tightened operational restrictions. Subsequent performance showed increased restraint and adherence to limits. Advancement consideration was deferred pending long-term reliability.
Xaelik was formally attached to Lord Sorath for structured apprenticeship oversight. Training emphasis shifted to doctrinal precision, controlled Force application, and sanctioned combat performance. Evaluations noted stabilization of prior risk factors with continued suppression of initiative. He achieved high placement in an academy-sanctioned Dromund Kaas dueling tournament. Recognition was logged internally without elevation or authority expansion. As of 3621 BBY, his status remains stable, monitored, and unresolved.
