Armin

Armin Braun is a Stormtrooper Lieutenant, who is currently serving in the 203rd Legion, despite joining the Galactic Empire as a simple Stormtrooper. While it is not unheard of for Stormtroopers to be promoted to officer status after demonstrating their aptitude for leadership it certainly came as a surprise for Lt. Braun.

Among his men Lt. Braun is known as a rather kind commander even if he is rather ruthless towards his enemies, among whom he counts soldiers that do not follow orders.

''"A tool that is good at doing its job is well taken care of, a tool that can't do the one thing it's made for is quickly discarded." - Lt. Braun''

Imperial Records
Armin Braun was born on Corellia in 1 ABY to an impoverished family quickly finding himself orphaned. Due to his unfortunate past it is very difficult to even find records of basic things such as his birth and parents. Somehow he had managed to survive on the streets of Corellia for 10 entire years and as Lt. Braun had stated it was thanks to him taking whatever jobs he could find. Usually finding himself working for Independents such as bounty hunters, mercenaries and other such professions.

At the start of the year 11 ABY he had started working as an intern on a merchant ship operating within both the Corellian Trade Spine and the Perlemian Trade Route. After a year of internship aboard the merchant ship it had become a full-time job for Lt. Braun a first in his life and as he reported he had enjoyed the stability it had brought to his life despite the displeasure he took in doing said job.

However a single event in the year 17 ABY was the catalyst that changed the entire course of his life. Seeing some suspicious activity from one of the traders he had decided to investigate further into the matter, eventually finding their connection to the New Republic Navy and reporting it to the Imperial authorities on the planet. While further details on the matter are classified it is known that he was given a mission by a member of the Imperial Intelligence, a man now known as Lord Thel. After the matter had been settled Lt. Braun was enrolled in a Stormtrooper Academy with Lord Thel's sponsorship the very same year.
