My name is Devron Zal. I am the Grand Admiral of the Royal Military on Domus Prime, under Her Majesty, Queen Sailor Coruscant. I was originally born and raised on the planet Tuebor, which has been in a massive civil war for over 35 years. I married my high school sweetheart, Ashliye Steppanek, there, and all was going absolutely wonderfully. She was one of the civilians who had a job at a military base near our home, and I worked as a starship engineer for StarFreight Corporation. Our life together was cut short abruptly by the rebellion, however. A faction of rebellion forces destroyed the military base Ashliye worked at; there were no survivors. I was outraged and set out for my revenge, joining the Tuebor military and going into special forces. It was there that I discovered my calling in life was as a fighter--I am not a Force-user, and tend to be leery of the Force in general, but I have something similar to it, a rare trait known as berserkerlust. It's impossible for me to control it, but in situations such as intense anger or high tension, when the adrenaline begins to flow, I become something of a berserker. It turns me into a nearly unstoppable fighter, but it is also incredibly difficult to control; if I'm not careful, I could cut down friend as easily as foe. This is why I was eventually discharged from the military I served--during one of my battles, I inadvertently struck an officer, slicing his leg off, before I could bring myself under control.
After being discharged, I had no reason to linger on the planet. I packed up all my belongings and left, skipping through my navcomputer at random to find a planet to settle on. This is how I came to Domus Prime. Originally I was hired by the Palace as a starship and weapons designer, but during the First Sith Invasion, the Supreme Grand Admiral of the Royal Forces, "Riddler," was nowhere to be found. I hastily contacted the Queen explaining my background, and she agreed to allow me to lead the Royal Forces into battle for defense of the Palace. I was promoted to General, and I immediately tasked myself to rebuild the Royal Forces into an unstoppable war machine.
Unfortunately, things were not as simple as that. A Sith spy began to infiltrate the Palace, first through planting herself in my head using the Dark Side (adopting ysalamir as a pet quickly stopped that from happening), then by posing as a comm technician aboard one of our Star Destroyers and attempting to seduce me. She was killed soon thereafter, and I took lead of the newly rebuilt fleet, invading and capturing the Sith outpost planet of Toxtenkopp in a long and bloody battle, where I ended up engaging a Sith Lord in starfighter combat. Our victory was short-lived, however, as I soon had to get back to Domus Prime and defend her from a counterattacking invasion force. That invasion force was ultimately stopped, but at great cost; the Grand Admiral was killed by the same Sith Lord whom I had engaged at Toxtenkopp. Before he died, he declared me the new Grand Admiral.
Since becoming Grand Admiral, many crazy things have happened. A Sith is lurking in our Palace, and she has tortured and killed many of our people. I myself was abducted and tortured, along with the youngest handmaiden, Anthra. We've tried everything to find her, but to no avail as of yet. I wasn't permanently mentally scarred by the torture, but I fear young Anthra didn't have it quite as well; scared, she turned to me for protection, and I took her in as sort of a surrogate daughter. I have watched over her since then, protecting her, and we remain very close.
The Royal Forces are back to full strength, awaiting battle with an invasion force rumoured to be lurking in the area. We continue as always to protect and serve our Queen.
My story is just one of many in the Domus Prime saga. Many amazing things have happened, many tender moments and dramatic events, which I cannot hope to tell with any level of accuracy. Please visit my friends' journals, as well as the Domus Prime Chronicles website, if you want to see all we've been through, the battles we have won, and the love we have gained.









In case you are confused, this is an in-character journal for the character I play in the Domus Prime web-based collaborative fanfiction. We started writing it as sort of a fun little diversion in October of 1999; since then, it's grown from a "fun little diversion" to something we tend to obsess over quite a bit. If you're interested, I encourage you to go take a look. The story is huge (we've written four major chapters; the introduction chapter is short and written in a vastly different style, Chapter Two is when we started to get serious about things) but it is a lot of fun to read. This journal will be entirely in-character from the point of view of Grand Admiral Devron Zal; if you're idly curious, I do have a personal Livejournal, espresso_fiend.
