"There is a child under that mask." "That may be true, but this child witnessed the downfall of the Empire, survived the years of the Triumvirate, and now enforce the will of what's left of the Empire as a special forces commander for the society. So don't call me a child director, call me a survivor, because I have survived what many have not and will avenge their deaths and the death of our late Emperor."
-A conversation after a mission briefing with Director Vol and Commander
Rovern of Phoenix Squadron on board the Pheonix .
Rovern Holis, was born on the planet of Fondor in the later Imperial Period and as long as he has remembered, has felt an obligation to the Empire. Because of this, he joined the stormtrooper corps at 15 and quickly rose to the ranks of Lieutenant and became in command of the 189th platoon. They, were know for their exceptional loyalty to the Empire and brutality to rebels. They were an extremely successful platoon willing to enforce the will of the Empire no matter what the cost. Then came the battle of Endor and the death of the Emperor, this made Lieutenant Rovern extremely furious and made him feel that the rebellion should burn even more. So they fought harder and with more crueltly. Then came the battle of Jakku. The 189th was on assignment was nearly crushed with the exception of Lieutenant Rovern and a handful of others. They were ectremly shocked and were able to get on a ship and get out on one of the final Star Destroyers. Then the Truimvirate came and what was left of the 189th joined to see that their Empire would continue. Because of their reputation, they caught the interest of Moff Barthel and were asked if they would be interested in becoming an imperial special forces. They accepted and were named Pheonix Squadron, their motto "out of the ashes we become stronger, better, and more brutal." Durning the Truimvirate era, Pheonix Squadron was assigned on many missions to rebuild the fallen Empire. They were extremely successful in doing them and enforced the will brutally. Then came the battle of Iridonia, the third great defeat. Pheonix Squadron was assigned a mission that would secure the planet but it was too late. By the time they got there, the Truimvirate had split. They left and went to a far planet to hide for a few months. They later got a transmission by Lord Moff Krant Cerarto to meet him at the Maw Instilation where they would help rebuild the once again, fallen Empire. They went and were briefed about the Stygian Caldera Society and were asked if they wanted to join. They accepted and know, enforce the will of the empire through acts of hard will, legal or not.
