Bio: Radim was born on Taris, a backwater planet that happens to be a member of the Republic. He was raised in the violent life of Lower City. He was never one for school, even though he was able to read pretty well for someone with a very little formal education. Unlike many of gangbangers in the Lower City, he always liked to read the news on the HoloNet. Mainly because he wanted to keep himself updated on the events of the galaxy. However, he still did some of the things gangbangers usually does. Radim had killed someone, sold some illegal spice, a lot of property destruction, among a few more things. He wasn't as hardcore as most are, though. While growing up, he only had one true love in his life. That was swoop racing. He started taking points on swoop racing at age of 7. He was too young to race, so instead he was taught how to fix or soup up a swoop. Radim had become an exceptional mechanic, and then be began racing at age of thirteen. His love for the sport grew, as he competed against other gang racers or simply swoop racers. Thek continued to race and participate in gang activity for seven years until he was twenty. Battle of Geonosis had happened, and the Clone Wars erupted. The clones were commissioned as the Grand Army of the Republic. The droids were manufactured to be part of the droid army that represented the Confederacy. Since Taris was a backwater planet, Republic never really cared for it. The Lower City and Undercity were left to fend for themselves, while the upper citizens stays their luxurious ways of life. This led him to hate the Republic, and believed there has to be a change. His desire to be a part of something bigger would led him to a decision of leaving Taris. He mustered up enough credits to purchase an one-way ticket off-world to Geonosis. The young man would met up with Sun Fac, the aide to Poggle the Lesser. Sun Fac would introduce him to Poggle the Lesser, which in turn introduced him to General Grievous. With Grievous' distaste of droid army, he also felt pleased enough to appoint Radik with the rank of lieutenant to start with. While the young man was an expert in urban warfare due to his experiences on Taris, he was new to a true battlefield. As time goes, he began to pick up on the other types of warfare. The lieutenant would lead droids into battle on the front lines on planets like Haruun Kal, Hypori, Saleucami, Muunilinst, Mygeeto, among several worlds that were touched by the Clone Wars. The war took Radim to a new height of violence, showing that the gang war on Taris were nothing compared to a galaxy-spanning war that had destroyed everything in its path. He never killed any Jedi but he had killed both clone troopers and non-clone soldiers. Battle of Coruscant had given a dramatic turn in Republic's favor in the war, and shortly thereafter...the droid army were deactivated. The Separatists had lost the Clone Wars. The Galactic Republic had transformed into the Galactic Empire. That moment, the young man knew things would be worse. He had no interest in staying with the Separatist remnants. Instead, he opted to return to his homeworld of Taris. Radim would begin to recruit the like-minded individuals, establishing Krayt Dragon swoop gang. He would preach the importance of resistance against the Empire rather than petty war against other gangs. For ten years now, the Krayt Dragons had committed to both urban and guerilla warfare upon Imperial patrols that dare ventured into Lower City and the Undercity...
