Bale Andros

Bale Andros was a human male politician and resistance fighter who served in the Milano Resistance during the insurgency on his homeworld of Milano. Prior to the rise of the Empire, Andros served as the elected ruler of the Royal House of Milano. Growing up in a family of high-ranking members of the Royal House of Milano, Andros dedicated his life to serving the Milanian people. During the Clone Wars, Andros advocated for a peaceful resolution to the war, but maintained support of the Galactic Republic. When his term came to an end, he fought to liberate his homeworld from Imperial control.

Born in 50 BBY during the age of the Republic, Andros was raised by his parents, King Colton Andros and his wife Sera on the planet Milano of the Inner Rim Territories. Inspired by his father, Andros aspired to follow his family legacy as a monarch of Milano. He began his political career at a young age, dedicating his life to public service and civic duty. With the mentorship of his father, Andros was also elected as king during the Separatist Crisis. His opponent in the election was an idealist who advocated for isolation in the wake of the political crisis. Andros continued to support the Republic which ultimately won him the election and he remained loyal throughout the three-year conflict.

During his reign, his sister, Bari Andros, served as a captain of the Milano Security Force, responsible for overseeing the Milano Police Force and Milano Royal Guard. Andros served hand in hand with his sister to maintain peace and prosperity on their homeworld. He also worked closely with his friend Prime Minister Albus Thorne as the leaders of the Royal House of Milano.

Early life
Bale Andros was born on the Inner Rim planet Milano in 50 BBY. He was the son of King Colton Andros, the elected ruler of the Royal House of Milano, and his wife Sera and the older brother of Princess Bari Andros. As the young prince aspired to follow in his father's footsteps, he learned how to become a political leader. When Colton's term came to an end, he was able to spend more time teaching Bale. Years later, he attended Cayden University where he studied politics, law and civic studies. During his time at the university, he developed a close friendship with Albus Thorne, who was also studying to become a political leader.

Rise to the throne
During the commencement of the Separatist Crisis, Andros began his campaign to become the next king of Milano. With the spirit of his father, Andros was ready to make a difference on his homeworld. Throughout the election, he openly disagreed with his opponent, Vahleet Onoa, who was an idealist with a strong policy on isolation. She believed that the Milano system should isolate from the Galactic Republic in the wake of the political crisis. Instead, Andros further advocated for the support of the Republic even if they went to war with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He felt that neutrality in the war would only do more harm than good, predicting that the Republic couldn't interfere in internal affairs.

With endless debate and a close battle, it was announced that Andros won the election. The entire population of Milano were informed of his victory and were invited to the capital city of Cayden to witness the new king's coronation. Andros spent the rest of the day preparing his traditional speech that he would give during his coronation. His family visited the Cayden Royal Palace to congratulate him and help him settle in the palace.

Coronation
On Ascendency Day, Andros' coronation was held and most of the Milanian people were present, including his family. He dressed up for the ceremony with his traditional robes and crown to mark his status as king. During the ceremony, Andros gave a speech and participated in the public festivities. Later that day, he met with members of the Royal House of Milano, including his friend, Prime Minister Albus Thorne. He also met with the Chief of Security Harrison Bellick, who was in charge of the personal safety of Andros, and his newly appointed Royal Guard. Bellick also walked him through the other divisions of the Milano Security Force that were responsible for ensuring the safety and protection of the Milanian people. Andros stated that he was familiar with the Security Force due to the fact that his sister Bari joined their ranks prior to the election. Bellick was surprised stating that he should of been informed that the princess joined their ranks, but Andros requested for her to be treated regularly.
