He doesn't believe in over complicating things and prefers to keep things clear and simple.

BIOGRAPHY:

Born as a child of the Empire on the world of Ithor Cord's parents were secretly Imperial Knights and brought Cord up to believe and follow the doctrine of the Order discovering his force sensitivity earn in his life they schooled him on techniques to keep his gifts masked would a skill mastered by his father.

Keeping his powers hidden until he was old enough to start his military training Cord joined other similarly aged recruits at the Imperial Military Academy on Ithor where he utilised his powers and excelled in his studies leading to his selection for specialist training where Cord found himself schooled as an intelligence agent as well as a combative soldier.

Cord never made his first military assignment, instead finding himself drafted into the active service of Imperial Knights stationed on Ithor, using his specialist intelligence training he was able to make himself vanish from military records and was assigned to monitoring Imperial organisations for treason feeding information to the order to better plan and deploy their knights.

It was during this time that Cord underwent extensive training under the knights which was extremely punishing both mentally and physically and left the younger Cord weary and drained for long periods but also built him into the man he became as his body hardened from the hours of stressful exercise and his and his mind focused mastering the skills of the force

As a squire he was eager to learn and prove himself always volunteering himself for duties and missions to gain more and more experience until his promotion to knight, as a knight his life became more structured, his training building on what he had learned as a squire to refine his skills he underwent further training in espionage and in testing of his skills he was tasked with infiltrating various imperial establishments to make close observations of targeted individuals he was also challeneged to steal and manipulate information to further refine his skills.

When the Sith revealled themselves and attacked the order during the purge of the order Cord and his fellow knights executed a fighting retreat against a determined assault of Sith loyal storm troopers and several Sith acolytes and masters, it was during this retreat that Cord's father was seriously injured and his mother captured by a Sith Lord, attempting to recuse her Cord lost his leg to a concussive explosion, wounded and drifting into unconsciousness Cord was helpless to give aid to his fellow knights or his mother.

Waking later he discovered that one of the orders senior knights had fought to him and dragged him from the fighting the pair escaping on the Justicar's personal shuttle with only a handful of other knights. Wounded and dying the Justicar charged each of the knights with individual missions and promoted each of the remaining knights to Knights-Errant including Cord, as he passed the knights broke up going their separate ways and Cord found himself trapped while he recovered and accustomed himself to his new leg retraining his body to adapt to fighting with the cybernetic limb that replaced his old leg.

In the time since Cord has shunned the Le Fey order instead opting to assume the role of an attacker he strikes from the shadows targeting Imperial personnel and Sith to weaken and destabilise the corrupted Empire's hold on Imperial worlds

Woohoo Imperial Knights!

Sweet profile, Necris, it's a good base to spring into roleplaying with him.

I have enough critiquing to do of my own stuff, but,without being a ImpKnight and critiquing it for content, the one thing that really catches my eye is the punctuation. You could do with more sentences.

Let me know if you want to RP with him and one of my characters, some time!

While I like the character there is something that might force you to change this profile up quiet a bit. The Sith had not revealed themselves at the time of his birth,that happened a decade or so ago. And the formation of retinues did not take place till a year or so ago, so you would have to change your biography a little to match with all this.

I didn't even know people could still make Imperial Knights after they got hunted down.

This is awesome. I would love to have my character Caleb roleplay with any Imperial Knights out there.

Looks good, though you should change the mention of Justicars to Knights.
