History: Isamu Eden was born on Kabal to Mariara and Genzoh Eden. Genzoh was a decorated fighter pilot who flew in the Galatic Civil War. Thus, Isamu immediatly aquired a taste for flying. His father taught him what he could before disappearing during a routine escort mission for the NR. An event that held heavy on young Isamu's heart.
When he was old enough, Isamu enrolled into the Imperial Academy, and at only the age of seventeen, he graduated with top honors, along with his rival and school-mate, Taragon Vardex. By nineteen, Isamu was recruited for the 181st TIE Squadron, which was once considered the most feared and decorated TIE Squad in the Galaxy. Isamu only remained with the Squadron for a year, before he decided that his place wasn't with The Empire, and defected over to the New Republic.
Once within the NR, he was quickly regonized for his skills in a cockpit and recruited as a Squadron Leader for The Black Knights, a new squad that was being developed by Shane Coltar in the efforts against the Ne'kressis. He spent his next couple of years with The Knights before being promoted to Wing Commander, where he first met and flew with Fringe Backwater and Angelique Coltar. When the Imperial Remnant attempted to take Tattoonie, The Black Knights were called in to help fight back against the oncoming forces. During this battle, Isamu found himself facing his old rival, Taragon. The two broke off from the major battle and had an all out dog-fight, which eventually ended when Eden managed to fire off a missle at Vardex, who was unable to dodge in time. Once Vardex was defeated, Eden returned to the battlefield and successfully stopped the last AT-AT that had entered Mos Eisley, by piloting his own TIE Interceptor into the head. It was thought that Isamu perished in the crash, but was later discovered that he had in fact piloted the starfighter by remote from a shuttle located away from the battle itself.
Over the years, Isamu has become famous for his iratic flying and off-the-wall tatics. He's reguarded as a sort of celeberity on a more than a few planets, while most of the NR Navy has at least heard of him, if they don't already know everything about him. His statis within the lime-light has done nothing for his ego, and he was even once called the "God of the Fighter Combat", a title that's stuck with him for most of his career with the New Republic.
