Biography
Lieutenant Nox Gammon was one of the original recruits of then Besh Squadron, Sentinel Company, under the leadership of Sargent Tychus. Under the suggestion of Commodore Xyla Xuana, Nox's rigid, by the book manner, along with his accuracy as a rifleman were considered high qualities for the then fledgling squadron. His interest shifted from marksmanship to the martial arts as a result of self-discovery. He was promoted to Lieutenant and ran a stint as Commander Officer of Aurek Squadron, Sentinel Company before his demotion to Executive Officer. His death during the Battle of Lithra resulted in a clone version of Nox Gammon to surface.
Early Life
- "Let me shoulder mother's wrath, brothers. I'm the eldest, it's for the best. "
— Nox Gammon
Nox Gammon was born in Coreliia. He is the first of the trio of Gammon brothers, and strikingly, the smallest as his brothers are both over 6'4" tall and over 300 lbs. His father left the Gammon family once his third son was born, leaving Qiana, a journeywoman smuggler, to support her family. When matters became difficult, she resorted to odd jobs including gambling, prostitution, and her trade, smuggling. Unfortunately, Qiana lacked the skills or the notoriety to smuggle, and as such, her business floundered. This soured her mood, affected her relationship with her children, and earned her an unsavory reputation as a trollup.
Qiana unleashed her frustrations on her children in the form of physical and emotional abuse. In the role of the eldest sibling, Nox directed most of his mother's wrath in his direction, and fell victim to physical and mental abuse. In the interest of being the focal point and the ire of his mother, and in looking for a better way of life, Nox decided to take his talents to the New Republic.
The New Republic
Previous run ins with the Imperial Navy combined with the newfound success of the Rebel Alliance encouraged Nox to enlist in the New Republic. He entered as a rifleman, and made a quick impression on his superiors with his accuracy and precision with his weapon of choice, the E-14 Carbine. From his role as the enforcer of his mother's transport, he also illustrated fair marks for his hand to hand prowess as a pugilist. These high marks, along with his indirect associations in the criminal underworld garnered the interest of Commodore Xyla Xuana. Xuana discovered that several years prior, the Gammon Transport had been raided by a Tatooine pirate group, with one of its members being Lucas Benoit-Stark. Since she had opened a case on Stark, Xuana sought extensive information on Stark's history and personality to further build on her treason case. One debriefed, Gammon operated on several reconnaissance missions including an assault on Soccorro, suspected by Stark himself.
Sentinel Company
Quote|And this tall hunk of metal is Nox, who is currently completely in the dark.|Daniel Cross}} Nox Gammon joined Besh Squadron, Sentinel Company at the behest of Commodore Xyla Xuana, and he entered as one of its inaugural members under the leadership of Sargent Tychus. As a rifleman, his no-nonsense approach and stoic, robotic nature differed from his counterparts. His work in initial missions yielded positive results, and he found his niche as a formidable ally. Early success with the squadron led to their advancement. A myriad of deaths placed Nox in a leadership role, first as Executive Officer and then as Commanding Officer. Unfortunately, errors in judgment and consistent mishaps demoted him back to the Executive Officer role.
Death on Lithra
