Alister West

Early Life
Alister West grew up on Naboo. His father died before he was born, so he lived with just his mother in Theed. He was quite rebellious as a child, but always tried to find someone he could look up to as a father figure.

Samurai Navy
In 118 ABY, West enlisted in the Galactic Alliance fleet. Throughout his time at the academy, West showed great skill in strike and recon tactics. His skill got him assigned to Debelmeis's Samurai Fleet. Debelmeis saw the great potential in West and became a mentor and father figure in the young officer's life. When Debelmeis told West about his idea to break away from the Alliance, West followed without hesitation.

Reformation
Five years after the end of the Sith-Imperial War, Debelmeis names West as his successor. Soon after, Darth Krayt finally tracks down the Samurai-Imperial Navy and engages them within the hazardous Cloak of the Sith.

During the battle, both sides suffer great losses, but the relentless Sith managed to board the Samurai flagship, the Judgment. Debelmeis and West hold their own against Krayt for a few moments before the dark lord utilizes Force Lightning against them, mortally wounding Debelmeis and badly injuring West. As Krayt starts to leave, Debelmeis makes one final attack, stabbing the Sith through the stomach with a vibroblade. Krayt returns the favor, impaling Debelmeis with his lightsaber. Krayt is escorted out by his troops while Debelmeis, West, and the rest of the Samurai-Imperial Navy are left defeated. Debelmeis died shortly after the Sith left, but West survived and took over the fleet.

Within the next few years, West rebuilds the Samurai Navy in Debelmeis's vision and eventually reforms it into the "Systems Intelligence Network." Not wanting another instance like the Sith-Imperial War to happen, West devotes SIN to technological advancements in order to fight any possible threat to galactic peace. To keep secrecy, SIN stays behind the scenes and only helps factions by giving vital information or advanced technology in return for resources.

Death
West's death is shrouded in mystery. SIN records claim that he was killed by a biological organic weapon (BOW) that turned on SIN personnel in a research vessel. When the vessel was found, the BOW had been killed but West's remains were not found. Traces of his blood were found in the bridge of the ship and there were no other survivors onboard, so West was assumed dead.
