Sam'viel Salez Zakarin was born on Phaladina, and spent his childhood years there. For a year, between the ages of 15.5-18.5, he lived on Corellia, working in a bar north of the spaceport, and then he came to Caspar. He soon got his citizenship, and joined the Naval Aerospace Arm as a Cadet. He did his basic training in the military and then went onto Academy. He took his new duties on with a thorough amount of enthusiasm. A month or two later, he was promoted to the rank of Commander, and soon after hit the press by coming second at the BKSA at its re-opening, only losing by a few points.
