:// Captain Volff's Personal Log #1 //:
Start of Captain Volff's personal log. Honestly I think this is just a total waste of time but the shrink says it might help curb my 'nihilistic' tendencies, whatever that means.
We flew more escort missions today and command are keeping a tight lip on why we're running them, I'm guessing something big's coming up but hey, something big is always happening for an Imperial pilot these days. Squadron is geared to go at any moment as per usual and the rookies we've been sent constantly ask when we're expecting to next see combat. It's driving me up the walls. I can guarantee when we eventually do see combat half of them aren't coming back. At least that'll be sure to shut the other half up. With my 'state of the art' bionic leg I'm never able to limp away fast enough to evade them.
Doc said to write about things other than flying and dying, suggested I write about home. Not much to write except about Kastav. Last I heard he was getting in trouble while at the Young Patriots College Axxila, something about lying to the face of the College Director. He nearly got away with it the rascal. Still I promised my father I'd take care of him after the 'incident'. I've also kept him alive this long when we were living on the streets, not about to give up on him now. Pay and my rank should be enough to keep him in school for now.

:// Captain Volff's Personal Log #2 //:
Doc said my last entry wasn't substantial so he has me continuing this 'diary'. I don't know what he wants to get out of this, firstly there's nothing wrong with me and secondly he's just going to have to keep reading a grumpy pilots incoherent rambling.
There was a brawl in the pilots mess, something about competing squadrons. I didn't know who started it but I just got involved, haven't had a good scrap for a while. Not since me, young Kastav and the rest of the gang use to steal speeders for street races. If only the rest weren't dead and they could see me know. Pudsi would go ballistic if he'd found out I chose flying bombers instead of interceptors. Still better than those cargo haulers I was first assigned to.
Apart from the brawl though the rest of the day was pretty uneventful. Some brick for brains technicians dropped one of the proton bombs from a crane so we were grounded for 14 hours until EOD were able to remove the bomb. The waiting is getting to me and all I can do is sit and wait until the bosses send us out against the Maw. The last great fight against the Sith I had was way back over Dubrillion and I'm starting to itch for a fight.

-
Ace Bomber - In Jalter's eyes a bomber is the best craft the navy has to offer. He has the skills to back this statement up as well, being a veteran bomber pilot, any pilot thinking that he and his ship are easy pickings are in for a surprise. Not only can he maneuver the flying brick like ballet dancer but he also packs enough missiles and bombs to make Alderaan look like a firecracker.
I Can Fly it - The bomber ace once started off as a low level shuttle pilot and climbing the ranks gave him experience in flying a plethora of ships. From cargo transports to dropships, if it has an engine he can probably fly it.
Reckless - Volff is a nihilistic and reckless pilot always seeking to complete his mission, even at the expense of his own life. If he sees an opening he'll take it no matter what.
Missing Leg - Having lost a leg over Dantooine, the Captain despises his new leg with all his hate. The man can barely operate the thing, causing him to walk with a limp. This makes him more or less handicapped if he's ever out of his bomber.
Imperial Pilot - A group of Imperial pilots scooped him up from his old life and thats something he hasn't forgotten, feeling a sense of loyalty to the starfighter corps.
-
Volff owns little outside of what was assigned to him. He's often found wearing his issued New Imperial Flight Suit or on ceremonial occasions a grey Imperial starfighter corps uniform and a peaked officer cap with a red brim, the colours of Darkstar Squadron. Jalter flies a TIE/HB Bruiser adorned with white stripes often kept at its maximum payload and when force out of his ship he carries a holout SFP-60x Particle Beam Pistol.
-
Rust in Peace - NIO Dominion of Ord Mantell - Firebombing the local Sarvip population as part of a NIO sponsored population control and pest removal operation.
Sith Imperial Invasion of Borosk and Troska - Defensive action against Sith-Imperial forces, engaging Sith Imperial interceptors in close combat. Severely injured after being shot down by Sith-Imperial interceptors.
In the Undertow // New Imperial Invasion of Jaemus and Dubrillion - Engaged the Sith-Imperial fleet above Dubrillion. Combined with actions above Borosk and Troska Volff was awarded the Medal of Imperial Merit and Medal of Imperial Valour.
Through Blood Dirt and Bone - NIO Dominion of Huk - Limited action against Sith-Imperial remnant forces over Huk.
Iron Resolve | Junction of Enclave-Excarga, NIO-Krownest - Flew in reserve at the battle of Krownest. Largest contribution was snarky comments about other fighter pilots.
The Eleventh Hour | BotM Invasion of NIO held Noris - Participated in the evacuation of Noris and was shot down and killed towards the end of the battle.
