History
Scipio was born on the small agriworld of Oorn Tchis bordering Sith Imperial Space to parents possessing their own patch of farm land. Not the biggest, not the smallest, not the best and not the worst. Just your average family farm land. Having a rather technophobic dad, he'd grow without relying on help from droids to complete his simplest tasks. As much as practical as that had made him, it also made him bring back bad marks from school.
There are not many options for a boy born and bred on agriworld in terms of career paths. Scipio's eldest brother was able to get a degree in public sector administration thanks to the Sith Empire's generous loan programs. He returned upon the completion of his degree to 'inherit' the farm land. So that path for him was, more or less, closed.
The door for his other choice was wide open - the military.
Enrolling into the Legion was definitely a moment of pride for his family. The Sith Empire, in the end, was their nation.
After numerous campaigns, cpl. Alta found out his family had accumulated massive amounts of debt trying to expand their agri business. He had to help out. The only way for a serious paycheck increase was to enroll into the Academy and graduate as an officer which he did.
So here he was, the simple man, pursuing complicated goals.
