The forces of House Taldryan have pushed the conquest of Ancient Sith Space harder than most would have imagined. Unexpected triumphs came as surely as surprisingly difficult battles.

Summary: Conquered [[Krayiss II]]. Other stuff.

== History ==
=== The Beginning ===

=== Buried under Black Sand (Chronicles of Krayiss II) ===

=== Over Icy Planes (Chronicles of Rhelg) ===

=== Stories from the Front Lines ===

==== Notes from the Aedile's Frontline Journal ====
''If there was ever room for rumor, it would be now. But what I say is true: A [[Dark Lord]] has risen from the grave. Even being in the higher echelons of the [[Equites]], I find new strengths in the power of the Dark Side each day. This place, this "Brotherhood", constantly begs for larger and darker forces to compete against.''

''Yet the power that the Iron Throne possesses roars with great fury. [[Taldryan]] faces new enemies on a regular basis. Cast under the will of Grand Master Muz, do we fight for our own or for the ego of a Dark Sorcerer? It becomes to difficult to tell these days. Even now on the edge of this sand stricken waste land of [[starwars:Krayiss II|Krayiss II]], I can only spare a moment to enter this short log. Perks of being the [[Aedile]], I suppose...''

''The line in the sand is constantly brushed aside, with a new, bolder stroke cast into the ground ahead of us. My mind and mettle struggle alongside [[Quaestor]] Rian. He has learned much in his tenure. He is strong in the face of opposition, and knows how to muster his Brothers and Sisters of the Mighty House Taldryan. Our numbers are fewer this time, but our strength is much grander now. This battle on Krayiss II is coming towards the end, I can feel it... [[Arcona]] and [[Scholae Palatinae]] won't last this battle.''

''Taldryan '''will''' rise victorious. Mark my words.''

==== An Excerpt from Keirdagh's Personal Journal ====
''Still, I fight. [T]he endless string of seemingly pointless conflicts, have sapped nearly all the will and desire out of me to issue forth with my full vigour for the battle of [[starwars:Ch'hodos|Ch'hodos]]. Still though, when [[Taldryan]] calls, I have an almost automatic need to respond. My heart, my will, my faith may no longer be in the position that I so often have found it, in full defense of Taldryan’s might and prestige, but today, I will fight. The battle for Ch’hodos looms, and while I have been told we are free of having to once again cross swords with the likes of [[Arcona]], today we instead are faced with a battle against [[Plagueis]], [[Tarentum]], and my old enemy of [[Naga Sadow]].''

''The Plagueians have been a revelation to me in this most recent conflict. I thought the challenge for supremacy in the Brotherhood would remain as it has been for ages, between Arcona and Taldryan, but there is now a third pretender for Taldryan’s throne. Ah well, heavy lies the crown.''

==== An Excerpt from Nyssa's Personal Journal ====
''Everything changes, and yet nothing is new. As I write this we are en route to Ch'hodos, the third planet in our endeavours. Our new recruits are holding themselves well so far, they have great inspiration to look to - with the likes of the OFH to set them the example, there was never really any doubt that they would do well. But still they have held firmer than I had expected, finally the tide turns. I think the other houses have had some what of a surprise - they had long-since decided that Taldryan was dead, that she would never again attain the lofty heights she once graced, but they are realising now they were wrong. We may still have a long fight in front of us to regain that position of superiority but the fight, at last, is well underway. What they failed to realise was the dedication and the loyalty that Taldryan inspires. All it takes is for her to sound her battlecry and the troops will rally. All it takes is time.''

==Current Events==

==History==
In the years leading up to 14,000 BBY, a grand temple was built on Krayiss II designed to give magicians pure of Sith blood a place to meditate and record their understandings. Over the following 10,000 years the temple became a place spoken of in hushed whispers, a seat of learning for those strongest in the ways of the dark side, where dark experiments could be conducted without restraint. The library associated with the temple grew as time passed, and given the secrets it held, unparalleled elsewhere, the location soon became a place of pilgrimage for those wishing to explore the limits of the dark side.

Perhaps it was experiment gone wrong, perhaps two great Sith Lords fought over control of the library, the exact events are lost in time, but by the year 4,000 BBY the temple and it's library stood empty, swallowed up by the surface of the planet itself, the great obelisk which once towered above the building proper now the only remnant visible from the surface.

While the events which caused the great structure to sink below the planet's surface were lost, one small piece of information filtered through the years. The great temple and the library it housed could be raised once more by one strong enough in the Force, should they perform the correct rituals and rites at the foot of the obelisk.

Both Jedi and Sith have attempted such rituals, meditating, chanting and incanting rites of great power at the obelisk in the hope of being the one great enough to access the treasures withing. Each and every attempt has ended in frustration and failure as the temple shudders, yet holds firm. Those few who have survived the experience report that the Sith spirits guarding the temple are the ones to judge the success of the rites performed, and that the spirit of Jedi Master Jey Sunrider is amongst the three Jedi Masters who guard the temple.

In 34 ABY a One Sith expedition numbering several dozen established a base on Krayiss II. When attempts to access the temple via the obelisk failed, the human Sith Lord leading the expedition, and his Nagai acolyte expanded their base camp to incorporate a small starport to enable longer-term activities on the planet. In the following two years, the Sith Lord and his aspirants explored the desolate planet's surface, locating several artifacts and ancient Sith scrolls hidden within the ruins of ancient settlements. The One Sith hoped that with the information contained within the relics, access to the temple should be possible within the space of a few months.

==Geography==

==Moons==
===Hakagram===
Hakagram, a satellite in near-synchronous rotation with Krayiss II, orbits at 247,000 km. Measuring approximately 3,150km in diameter, Hakagram provides a small amount of reflected light to the surface of Krayiss II during night hours. The moon is completely devoid of life, being exposed directly to the vacuum of space. Studies have so far shown no mineral deposits or other signs of interest.

===Nakru===
Hakagram and Nakru are twin satellites in near-synchronous rotation with Krayiss II. The moons orbit Krayiss II at a distance of 247,000 km and 249,000 km respectively. During Krayiss II's night cycle, the two moons provide a small amount of illumination on the planet's surface. The moons roughly measure 3,150 km in diameter, are devoid of life, and are completely exposed to vacuum. At present, there are no geological studies of the planet's surface indicating any form of mineral deposits.

==Notable Landmarks==
===Ancient Sith Temple===

=== Darth Zash's Outpost===
Surrounded by automated defences, and so not yet fully explored, the large fortification that was built under Darth Zash's direction was paritally uncovered in 35 ABY. Providing a hidden base for the Sith Lord, his outpost on Krayiss II operated for over 3600 years independently, controlled by mechanical droids and the automated defence system. Four Fury-class Imperial Interceptors were uncovered by the One Sith's expedition before work was abandoned due to the still functioning automated defences.

===One Sith Spaceport===
Built in the year 34 ABY, the spaceport close to the equatorial band was erected to help support the One Sith's expedition to unearth the Ancient Sith Temple. Designed to support and aid the expedition team, the spaceport greatly assisted with resupplying the team, and with off-world travel. Providing a base for multiple star fighters and well as a corvette-class ship, the port is itself supported by two FPC 6.7 Anti-aircraft batteries.

History

In the years leading up to 14,000 BBY, a grand temple was built on Krayiss II designed to give magicians pure of Sith blood a place to meditate and record their understandings. Over the following 10,000 years the temple became a place spoken of in hushed whispers, a seat of learning for those strongest in the ways of the dark side, where dark experiments could be conducted without restraint. The library associated with the temple grew as time passed, and given the secrets it held, unparalleled elsewhere, the location soon became a place of pilgrimage for those wishing to explore the limits of the dark side.

The '''Holocron of the Wang''' was a Holocron (obviously) created by GM Jac Cotelin. After the Zoraan Uprising, and the loss of the Dark Hall, it was apparent that keeping all the teachings of the Brotherhood in one place was extremely unwise. e sought advice and assistance from Thedek, who was already reknowned for his ability to manipulate methods of storing information. With Thedek's guidance, Jac created his own, personal holocron, as a means to store the vast amount of experience and knowledge he had already accumulated. [He was awesome. After the Zoraan Uprising and the loss of the Dark Hall, Jac sought council with his GM gal pal Thedek, who was a master of informationy stuff, and learned to create his own, personal holocron.]

In the years since, the holocron has been passed from Consul to Consul, allowing them to add their own experiences and detail events that have occurred during their reigns. In this way it is ensured that the knowledge of Taldryan and all that makes it mighty is preserved and maintained for the generations to come. Almost by accident, this holocron has also captured part of the essence of all who have contributed to it, so keeping the memories of it's creators alive. [This little holocron went on to become a Taldryan legacy, storing the essences and knowledge of its Consuls.]

When Clans died, Ben the wiki king (holocron masterbator), decided to use the unique properties of the Holocron to allow masters from all across the Brotherhood to add their knowledge and power the artifact. (By coincidence (aka Tal awesomeness), most of those who added to the Holocron had served the Dark Council in some capacity before, during, or after their reigns as Consul.) In this way, despite the Brotherhood's decline, our precious teachings would be kept forever.

== Properties ==

== Contents ==
The contents of '''Holocron Taldrya''' were unique in that the essences, knowledge, and memoirs of several [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were stored within. Perfecting the Holocron over a span of years, Jac Cotelin ensured that, no matter what disasters struck, a historical record would remain that could help rebuild and maintain the ways of the Dark Brotherhood. Though initially a personal Holocron of his own knowledge, the artifact was eventually passed down by the Consuls of Clan Taldryan.

=== Excerpts from the Holocron Taldra ===
'''Jac Cotelin, Grand Master'''
:"''One of the darkest times in Clan Taldryan history. It's not what one would expect me to say of my elevation to the position of Consul in this great Clan. It was however, a promotion that I never sought out, one that I never asked for. In the months leading up to Grand Master Zoraan's mental collapse, there were those in the Brotherhood who had seen the instability forming, and had sought out avenues to limit his excesses. Telaris "Mav" Cantor was one such person. Mav had been a driving force for Taldryan, and indeed the Brotherhood as a whole. He was my friend, my confidant, and he was the same for every person in Clan Taldryan. He had been actively campaigning for Zoraan to resign, a campaign which in hindsight was one full of wisdom and foresight.

:"''However when dealing with a mad-man, no amount of practical reasoning would assuage the feeling of betrayal in Grand Master Zoraan. In an act of extreme rage, and petty jealousy Zoraan removed from our Clan one of it's most inspirational and compelling leaders, my friend Mav. Zoraan, his mental faculties already beginning to erode, prone to irrational and frightening outbursts was more than willing to appoint an outsider to lead what he saw as a rebellious Clan Taldryan. It was with a heavy heart that I took over the reigns of Taldryan, to hold in safe keeping the position that Mav had been so amazing at. But more importantly, in order to protect Clan Taldryan from without.

:"''Our greatest strength has always been our unity. Unity in the face of adversity, unity against the combined hatred of the rest of the Brotherhood. It was what defined us, it was what made us better. Zoraan thought he could destroy our wills by removing Mav. I viewed it as my duty to defend it, so that no outside influence could seek to undermine what we were: '''''A Brotherhood within a Brotherhood'''''."''

'''Kir Katarn, Prophet'''
:"''Kir's thoughts on the Exodus and what led to it."''

'''Shadow Taldrya, Dark Jedi Master'''
:"''Major achievement during PCON, Shadow recalls the Obelisk of Taldryan crushing the pirates of Coratua V."''

'''Duga Arkarso, Adept'''
:"''The losses suffered at Antei to the Vong. The destruction of most of the Taldryan Fleet, and death of (former) Archanis QUA Crix Madine."''

'''Halcyon Taldrya, Dark Jedi Master'''
:"''Halc, with the task of rebuilding, adds his thoughts on the reclamation of Antei and the death of Sarin leading to Muz becoming GM."''

'''Vodo Biask, Epis'''
:"''Written on the even of Clans being dissolved, a more solemn entry on the Brotherhood's membership dwindling and Taldryan changing."''

''"While most of the Clans viewed the dissolution of their membership to the status of a House as a major blow, Taldryan had a unique angle on these events. Forged from the strength of Independednt House Ektrosis, Taldryan was by far the youngest of the Clans. Ektrosis had proven long ago that an Independent House could stand against the might of the Clans, and so the reorganisation of the Brotherhood was seen in Taldryan as just that, a reorganisation necessary to ensure the ongoing health of the Brotherhood as a whole, rather than a handicap to the greatness of Taldryan."''

== History ==
=== Beyond the Ashes ===
Overview - Zoraan went nuts, destroyed the Dark Hall and with it many of the Brotherhood's important records and teachings. Jac, former GM, was forced to accept the position of CON of Tal when Zoraan drove Telaris Cantor from the position for fear of insurrection.

Jac decided he would seek to re-create the lost knowledge from his own recollection and set up creating a personal holocron.

=== Construction ===
Overview - Details about the time Jac spent constructing this particular Holocron.

=== Memoirs of the Grand Master ===
Overview - A brief re-telling of what Jac added of himself.

=== A Legacy Born ===
Overview - Though initially a personal Holocron and an artifact of Taldryan, this changed while Kir Katarn served as Consul, overseeing the devestation caused by the Exodus. Again, the Brotherhood lost much of its history when Eos was abandoned and left to the Emperor's Hammer. Unable to create a Holocron himself, he sought council with Cotelin who agreed to teach Kir to add his own essence to the Holocron.

This became a new legacy of the Consul's of Taldryan. Before resigning their posts, a Consul would add their own essence--all their knowledge about combat, the Force, the Clan, and the Brotherhood to instruct future generations. In this way, the Holocron Taldrya became a living history of the Brotherhood from the point of view of Clan Taldryan.

=== Fallen Clan ===
Overview - Vodo Biask's reign and possibly the last entry into the Holocron as the Brotherhood is forced to restructure its Clans into Independent Houses, and in so doing bringing Taldryan full circle back to her begninings.

=== Times of Despair ===
Overview - With the Brotherhood undergoing changes due to a lack of membership, newly appointed Holocron Master (wiki) Benevolent decides to use the Holocron as a tool to record the knowledge of masters of various aspects of the Brotherhood. What began as a personal Holocron of a GM became a Clan Legacy and now resides in the Dark Hall as a powerful collection of Brotherhood knowledge.

== Creators ==
This Holocron was created by Grand Master [[Jac|Jac Cotelin]] following the events surrounding [[Zoraan|Grand Master Zoraan's]] [[Zoraan Uprising|uprising and death]]; and the destruction of the Dark Hall. The loss of many of Taldryan's early records in the force storms was an impetus for Cotelin to preserve what remained of the Clan's histories for future generations.

The '''Holocron of the Wang''' was a Holocron (obviously) created by GM Jac Cotelin. He was awesome. After the Zoraan Uprising and the loss of the Dark Hall, Jac sought council with his GM gal pal Thedek, who was a master of informationy stuff, and learned to create his own, personal holocron.

This little holocron went on to become a Taldryan legacy, storing the essences and knowledge of its Consuls.

When Clans died, Ben the wiki king (holocron masterbator), decided to use the unique properties of the Holocron to allow masters from all across the Brotherhood to add their knowledge and power the artifact. (By coincidence (aka Tal awesomeness), most of those who added to the Holocron had served the Dark Council in some capacity before, during, or after their reigns as Consul.) In this way, despite the Brotherhood's decline, our precious teachings would be kept forever.

== Properties ==

== Contents ==
The contents of '''Holocron Taldrya''' were unique in that the essences, knowledge, and memoirs of several [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were stored within. Perfecting the Holocron over a span of years, Jac Cotelin ensured that, no matter what disasters struck, a historical record would remain that could help rebuild and maintain the ways of the Dark Brotherhood. Though initially a personal Holocron of his own knowledge, the artifact was eventually passed down by the Consuls of Clan Taldryan.

=== Excerpts from the Holocron Taldra ===
'''Jac Cotelin, Grand Master'''
:"''One of the darkest times in Clan Taldryan history. It's not what one would expect me to say of my elevation to the position of Consul in this great Clan. It was however, a promotion that I never sought out, one that I never asked for. In the months leading up to Grand Master Zoraan's mental collapse, there were those in the Brotherhood who had seen the instability forming, and had sought out avenues to limit his excesses. Telaris "Mav" Cantor was one such person. Mav had been a driving force for Taldryan, and indeed the Brotherhood as a whole. He was my friend, my confidant, and he was the same for every person in Clan Taldryan. He had been actively campaigning for Zoraan to resign, a campaign which in hindsight was one full of wisdom and foresight.

{{Quote|I remember the last words of my Master Ooroo...perhaps I can build a great learning center. A giant library of Jedi knowledge and books on the quiet world where Master Ooroo trained me. On Ossus!|Odan-Urr}}

[[starwars:Odan-Urr|Odan-Urr]] was a being who protected many antiquities in his long life. Before his death at the hands of [[starwars:Exar Kun|Exar Kun]] on [[starwars:Ossus|Ossus]], he created a holocron with information on each of these relics, which were hidden across the Galaxy. This Holocron became known in legends as "The Blah of Blah". Thousands of years later, during the events of the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong War|Yuuzhan Vong War]], the New Jedi Order re-discovered Ossus. After founding a new training academy there, a young Jedi Knight (HOU leader/founder) ineptly stumbled across the holocron. Overwhelmed by the power of what he found, he left the Jedi Order and founded his own House--[[Odan-Urr|House Odan-Urr]].

Unfortunately, this Jedi (who sucked), had neither the power nor the ability to access the holocron so its secrets remained locked away. Fearful of anyone finding the artifact, he hid in deep within the earth of [[New Tython]]. When the Dark Brotherhood [[Tenth Great Jedi War|assaulted]] the planet, the holocron was accidentally unearthed and fell into the hands of the [[Deputy Grand Master]], who ordered that it be taken to the [[Holocron Center of the Brotherhood]] for further study.

== Properties ==

== History ==
=== Creation ===
(Summary) Odan-Urr collected many important Jedi artifacts in his Chamber of Antiquities, but not all of the ones he knew of were stored there (unable to retrieve them, believed they were safer left where they were, something like that?). So he made a holocron to store the whereabouts of the things he couldn't obtain.

=== Death of Creator ===
(Summary) Odan-Urr is killed by Exar Kun, later Ossus gets kablamied, but this holocron survived.

=== Lost to Time ===
(Summary) Odan-Urr never made any mention of his treasuremap holocron, so nobody ever thought to look for it. Plus, Ossus was uglified and feral. So, it's lost until present day.(Merge with previous section?)

* Circlet of Saresh
The Circlet of Saresh was a headband owned by the Jedi Knight Guun Han Saresh. It was commissioned by his father as a gift for becoming a Jedi Knight and entering the Jedi order. It was constructed in such a way that only one who is a servant of the light side of the force would be able to harness its abilities. This was done as a form of repentance for a family name known for it's arrogance, cruelty, wealth and political influence in the past.

The circlet, when worn, heightened the wearer's abilities in the Force. The articfact was lost when Guun Han was killed and devoured by a terentatek during the his attempt to kill the creature during the Great Hunt. It was later discovered by Revan on his search for the Star Forge during the Jedi Civil War. The artifact was left by Revan, before his disappearance to the Unknown Regions, and later found and used by the Jedi Exile during the First Jedi Purge.

Upon defeating Darths Traya, Nihilus, and Sion, the Exile left with the Circlet to the Unknown Regions in search of Revan. The Exile and the Circlet were never heard from or seen again. *all above information found in the SW wiki http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Circlet_of_Saresh*

/Winging it from here/ Jedi Master Odan-Urr had sensed this artifact through the force and found a way, through meditation, to single out its impression in the Force over great distances throughout the universe. This knowledge was placed into the holocron in the hopes someone, someday, would find the artifact and put it to use against the foes of the Jedi.

The Chu-Gon Dar cube was created by Jedi Master Chu-Gon Dar thousands of years before the Clone Wars. What made this artifact so special was it's transmogrification ability. *writers block has hit, mainly due to lack of sleep...if anyone wants to take a stab at this, go right ahead http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Chu-Gon_Dar_cube*

* Star Forge Robe
The Star Forge Robes were special Jedi robes that were made in an ancient massive automated Rakata shipyard, the Star Forge. These robes were long, colored sand-brown, and only its chestplate broke the ascetic simplicity. Nonetheless, it gave a Force-sensitive wearer increased wisdom and willpower. Despite the fact that the Star Forge was a powerful tool of the dark side of the Force, only one immersed in the light side was able to wear the robes. In 3,956 BBY, during the final battle of the Jedi Civil War, when Jedi Revan defeated Sith Lord Darth Malak, the Star Forge was destroyed, setting an end to the production of the robes.

//came across it somehow// and stored the location of this artefact, as only a disciple of the Light side of the Force can wear the robe.

* Eye of the Sun
The Eye of the Sun was a Force-imbued artifact that was created by a group of Jedi Masters for use during the Ruusan campaign as a defense against the Brotherhood of Darkness. It was later hidden under the Ch'hala Heart tree on Cularin and the Dark Jedi Len Markus tried to find it there in 19 BBY, because if he touched it against the Darkstaff, then the staff would gain enough power to destroy Cularin.
It resembled a rock, but it could glow silver and a large yellow eye could appear on it's surface, if it willed. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Eye_of_the_Sun
