Bedal Cerroux, a male hailing from Eriadu, held the rank of Imperial cadet while stationed at the Arkanis Academy. Possessing a stocky build and mournful eyes, he was among the initial cadets encountered by Zare Leonis upon Leonis's arrival, who was covertly entering the academy with the intent of rescuing his sister. Subsequently, both Cerroux and Leonis took part in a training exercise conducted on Sirpar, a planet characterized by high gravity. Within the Cresh-3 Platoon, Leonis held the position of leader, while Cerroux served as his sergeant major. In the course of the exercise, Cerroux expressed doubt regarding Leonis's decision to relinquish a designated holding point; however, Leonis dismissed these concerns, asserting that mobility represented their sole avenue for achieving the mission's goals.
