History
Childhood and adolescence
Born in 793 A.S. to Eckhard Aleski and Jeannette Aleski (nee Ramstein-Schrödinger), Wilhelm was the youngest of three other boys, Mark Alexander and Axel, both aged 27. Raised in the upper middle-class and aristocratic town of Wolfsburg in the outskirts of New Berlin's capital city, Wilhelm enjoyed a comfortable and relatively worry-free childhood, despite the Nomad War of 800 A.S. and the already weakened state of the Rheinlandish economy. His father is a highly ranked and prominent member of Rheinland's defense forces, while his mother is the Head Nurse of the Wolfsburg General Hospital.
Generally characterized as a very introverted and withdrawn child during his youth, Deneth showed tremendous prowess in academics. As well as finishing with top grades in all but one year of his pre-college education, he showed exceptional aptitude in English studies. By the age of 10, he could read, write and speak fluently in English.
As time passed, Deneth started exhibiting leadership aptitudes, becoming the captain of his high school's soccer club and taking up extracurricular activities. He had his first romantic relationship at the age of 17, however. It lasted four months.
Early adulthood
At the age of 18, at the recommendation of his father Eckhard and according to family tradition, Deneth was invited to attend the prestigious Militärische Hochschule des Rheinland, or Military College of Rheinland. The institution serves as the leading producer of commissioned officers within the ranks of Rheinland military forces and only the best and brightest are invited to attend the school.
After a three-year course in which he was taught the rudiments of warfighting, tactics & strategies, military doctrine, piloting skills alongside a civilian collegiate degree, Deneth graduated with the commissioned rank of Officer Cadet, a position that would put him in charge of a regular-sized battleship fighter squadron. His first deployment orders soon followed.
Service in the Rheinwehr
In 814 A.S., Offiziertanwerter Wilhelm Aleski accepted his first deployment orders. He was put in command of the 120th "Thor's Hammer" fighter squadron, a newly formed fighter/bomber wing based on the Battleship Regensburg, which has recently been moved to the Munich system. His deployment was slated to end in 816 A.S. with a customary promotion to the rank of Hauptmann. For him, it was the beginning to the career he had always aspired to, following the footsteps of his father, grandfather and forefathers bearing the Aleski name.
However, things would not go smoothly at all. The Battleship Regensburg, recently moved to Munich to ward off Unioner raids and protect shipping lanes, simply could not meet strategic and tactical expectations. Additionally, due to the war with Liberty, reinforcements to the Regensburg were scarce. Fighter wings were often ill-equipped and the pilots sent out to fend off Unioner strikes lacked proper training and experience. As CO of the 120th, Aleski was appalled at the conditions in which the men and women of the Regensburg had to fight. All of this was taking place while Kanzler Reinhardt took office, promising massive budget increases for defense. The young officer simply could not believe it.

Ships
Current ships
- Templar - B-1290 Bretonia Very Heavy Fighter: BAF-issued fighter. Deneth's second favourite, only to the Wraith. He often remarks that the Templar "is the embodiment of the Bretonian people and spirit in machine form; unyielding and bold." Two confirmed kills.
- Falcon - CTE-3000 Civilian Heavy Fighter: Personal ship used outside of BAF duty. Currently stripped of weapons and external systems. Stored in a shed near Deneth's apartment on Planet New London.
Former ships
- Wraith - 90-ARKM-N45 Rheinland Very Heavy Fighter: Rheinwehr-issued. When asked about his opinion of the fighter, he responded: "The Wraith is a vicious, incomprehensibly well-calibrated and cruel machine. There is no match for the Wraith." Nine confirmed kills, several dozens more unconfirmed.
- Odin - RH-GM40 Red Hessian Very Heavy Fighter: RHA-issued fighter. Well-appreciated by Aleski but often criticized it for its weak power core. No kills confirmed. Handed over to Bretonian authorities when he defected there.
