I'd like to introduce myself... again.

Introduction

It's been nearly a month since the release of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, and in that time our understanding of the Star Wars universe has drastically changed. We knew it was coming, the EU was killed long ago, but we had no real idea as to what had happened, and what was happening. What was, will now never be. The Brotherhood is currently planning some form of twist into how we fit into the grander Star Wars universe, but I'd like to get people starting on it in their own minds now.

Prompt

This is an origin story. Not only that, this is your origin story. Tell your character's story in the context of what we know about the Star Wars universe as explained in Star Wars Episode VII. If your character is older: What did you do after the Battle of Endor? If you were born after Endor, what was your upbringing like? Did your parents regret the Emperor's passing and long for the days of the Empire? Or did your parents embrace the zeal of the Republic?

Tell us your story, keeping a mind to the changing canon.
