	===Early life===		===Early life===

	David Vaughan was born on the remote Mid Rim world of Dicacia on [[22GrS#22:3:31\|22:3:31]]. As he grew up on an Imperially-occupied world far from the main trade routes, the Imperial presence on the planet was not as crushing as on worlds closer to the Core. This resulted in an Imperial presence that the planet's citizens tolerated peacefully, but with dry cynicism.

	With an Imperial warrant issued for his arrest, and his family under Imperial arrest presumably pending execution on charges of treason, there was nothing Vaughan could do but escape from his homeworld and try to evade the Empire's wrath. While this would have been extremely difficult during the height of the Empire, in the post-Endor period the Rebellion had spread like wildfire, and there were many havens save or at the least neutral for fugitives of the Empire to run to.

	Before too long, Cadet Vaughan graduated from the ''Castor'' Academy above Blerthmore with honours, was promoted to the rank of lieutenant, and assigned to a TIE Interceptor squadron in the Retribution Starfighter Group in one of the Republic Shield's roving task groups. Despite his youth and relative inexperience, his organisational skills were soon favoured over his flying abilities, and he quickly rose to Executive Officer of his Interceptor squadron, which mostly involved compiling reports and partaking in administrative duties that his Commanding Officer didn't want to do.

	What followed was a dark time in Vaughan's life. Having lost his family, his home, and now his honour and responsibilities of military service, he roamed various non-Imperial, non-New Republic worlds trying to avoid detection by the Empire or the New Republic. After a while Vaughan received news that he had not ever expected to hear: his homeworld Dicacia had been liberated by the New Republic. The Empire had no hold on the world any more.

	In the weeks after the Blerthmore disaster, Vaughan spent most of his time attempting to help the Republic Shield recover from the thrashing it had suffered at the hands of the Imperial invasion force.

	~~During this~~ time Dicacia ~~was~~ liberated by the New Republic and ~~it was revealed~~ his family ~~weren't executed~~, ~~merely imprisoned~~.		What followed was a dark time in Vaughan's life. Having lost his family, his home, and now his honour and responsibilities of military service, he roamed various non-Imperial, non-New Republic worlds trying to avoid detection by the Empire or the New Republic. After a while Vaughan received news that he had not ever expected to hear: his homeworld Dicacia had been liberated by the New Republic. The Empire had no hold on the world any more.

			The New Republic had been waging a major campaign of conquest and liberation throughout the Mid Rim at this time, yet he had not dared to believe that he might one day be able to return to the land of his birthplace.

			After confirming the rumours to be true, he booked a one-way flight back to Dicacia, without any coherent plan, other than the vague notion that if he returned to somewhere familiar he might be able to put himself back together and try to pick up the pieces of his scattered life.

			His hopes were exceeded beyond belief, with the discovery during the conquest that many supposedly executed enemies of the Empire on Dicacia had been imprisoned instead. His family were alive, and his reunion with them helped drag him back from the brink of self-destructive lapse he had fallen into.

			With his home and family restored to him, Vaughan sought to make the most of his life, grateful for all that had been returned to him. His life as a civilian lasted for quite some time, and was a kind of holiday from the harsher realities of life.

			However, even though he did not realise it at the time, his time as a civilian was not to last.
