The [[Battleteam]] is based out of the 18th moon of Inos, code-named "Snowball". The complex was designed and built for the construction and testing of the SHADOW-Prototype armor system, away from any prying eyes. After the completion of the armor system, the base was re-purposed for the new Elite battleteam of the [[Strategic Hazard Assessment Division and Operational Warfare|SHADOW]] organization, Scepter of Ragnos. Tucked away on the edge of a mountain range there is a seemingly small looking military complex, only a few structures are visible the largest of which appears to be the hanger. The "Crucible" as it has been dubbed by its inhabitants is much larger than meets the eye, past the facade of the surface buildings lies the true base deep inside the mountain range itself.

[[File:CrucibleHanger.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Crucible Hangar interior.]]
Upon entering through the exterior hanger and traveling down the launch tunnel the real hanger becomes visible. The room is a large dome carved inside the heart of the mountain with multiple launch and arrival ramps around the radius of the center platform, some with ships stationed in them and others empty. These docks are reserved for the high ranking members and each have their exits in separate parts of the mountain range. Below the central landing platform is the main research lab and barracks, the rooms and hallways carved right out of the rock. The depth at which the base was positioned was ideal, it was low enough that the cold of the surface was offset by the planet's internal heat radiating from the core. The rooms and passageways are spacious and well heated but retain their cold efficient feeling with nothing coving up the rock they are carved from.

The base’s original construction was designed for the development and evolution of the SHADOW armor system, with the surface’s cold and harsh environment providing as an ideal local to test the suit. After the completion of the armor system the facility and it’s staff was moved into the command of the newly formed elite battleteam Scepter of Ragnos. The large R&D section of the base was mothballed and replaced with sparring rooms, blaster ranges, and more spacious living quarters.

The pinnacle of the [[Strategic Hazard Assessment Division and Operational Warfare|SHADOW]] organization's resources, the SHADOW-Prototype Armor is environmentally sealed with an independent air supply for use in space and extreme planetary conditions. The armor also features an onboard computer system which is capable of running battle management software. Internal heat build up is routed to the base of the armor and dispersed throughout the ground to help avoid thermal detection.

Designed in secret among the [[Strategic Hazard Assessment Division and Operational Warfare|SHADOW]] organization, the SOR-99 is a heavy-duty semi-automatic rifle favored by the most elite marksman. Each SOR-99 is designed specifically for its owner, and combines the stopping power and accuracy of a sniper rifle with the versatility of an assault rifle. Capable of Long-range support, or room clearing, the SOR-99 gets any job done.

== Character History ==
=== Early Life ===
Born on the moon of Suarbi 7, Susevfi, in 6 ABY, along with his twin sister Cordova, to Novac and Seriana. Both their parents were highly skilled Jensaarai Defenders it was no surprise that at the age of 3 the twins started showing a sensitivity to the Force, and began early learning under the guidance of their parents.

In 11 ABY, during the Battle of Susevfi, Novac was killed by the invading forces of the New Republic. After the battle, the Jedi Order extended an invitation to the Jensaarai to join them. While they were able to remain Jensaarai, many of them were sent to study with the Jedi. Maelous, while young, understood that the Jedi were the reason for his father’s death.

The twins earned the rank of Apprentice earlier than most, Cordova proved to be stronger in the Force at an early age and was elevated to the new rank at the age of 4 but denied Maelous, while Maelous received his apprenticeship the next year at the age of 5 (11 ABY) with Sol Wariv, rival to Cordova’s master Jaarez Fedic. Wariv believed that the twins should have been trained together, and took Maelous in order to show Fedic how grave a mistake he had made.

====Apprenticeship====

{{Quote|Light and Dark are not Good and Evil. The Force cares not for our human conceptualization of it.|Sol Wariv}}

Under Wariv, Maelous learned the ways of the Jensaarai quickly and showed an affinity for Force Alchemy, quickly learning to blend technology with the Force and created his Lightsaber a year later, six months earlier than his sister. During the first two years of his apprenticeship he and Cordova developed a rivalry, driving them to higher standards for themselves than other apprentices, but creating a slight rift between them.

Maelous would learn that true balance in the Force was from accepting both the Light and the Dark aspects, and using them in conjuction with one anothers. Eventually, he would create his own ideas from these teaching, believing that both the Jedi and the Sith only cared about advancing their own philosophy and control. This would eventually lead him to see the olive branch that the Jedi offered to be nothing more than a way to control the Jensaarai. Coupled with the death of his father, Maelous' hatred for the Jedi began to grow.

In 17 ABY Serianaa lead a team into Sith Space to recover a relic on Korriz and were attacked by the One Sith. While a few managed to escape the attack and return to Susevfi, Serianaa stayed behind to assure their safe retreat and was presumed dead.

Following the death of their mother, Maelous and Cordova’s rivalry intensified as they slipped further to the Dark Side. Fueled by anger and hatred and the drastically different philosophies they learned from their masters, they had a higher number of confrontations than other apprentices their age. These minor fights normally ended with a few punches or minor use of Force powers but the last argument that had as apprentices would be much different.

In 19 ABY Maelous and Cordova met in a local market. The initial meeting was pleasant though it eventually turned, as it always did, to their differing opinions of the Jensaarai alliance with the New Jedi Order. The conversation turned heated and ended with Maelous igniting his lightsaber and attacked his twin sister. Cordova was able to defend herself long enough for the two to be pulled apart before any real damage was done.

In 20 ABY, having shown a great command of the Force; both Cordova and Maelous completed their apprenticeships and were raised to the rank of Defender.

==== The Institute ====

==== Korriz ====
After eight years of wondering the galaxy Maelous found himself with a mostly disabled ship in Sith Space. After a few days he all but crash landed on Korriz. With the aid of the Force it only took him a week to recover from his injuries and only two more to locate Tritos Nal’s workshop. He made this place his home, eventually finding Nal’s holocron.

It took some time to get past the gatekeeper of the device, but once he did he was able to learn all of the secrets of the ancient Sith Lord. The first workings with the holocron took about 8 months to completed and he had created a Sith Sword under its tutelage. With no one to communicate with on the barren planet, Maelous immediately dived back into the holocron repeating his learning again and again, continually questioning the gatekeeper until there was nothing more to learn.

Two years past and Maelous worked at mastering the lessons of Sith Alchemy from the image of Tritos Nal. During one session the exile felt a presence in the Force, he hid himself and stayed within the workshop armed with his Sith Sword. Eventually the blind [[Jeric Cyrin]] entered the meditation room. Maelous revealed himself to the intruder and a battle commenced. Even with his opponent being unable to see him, Maelous knew he was out matched and could not hold off the persistent and erratic style of combat that Jeric used. He was repeatedly thrown into the wall by Jeric’s use of the Force. His life was nearly ended by a strike to his neck, but he was able to bat the attack away at the last moment and only received a burn scar on the right side of his neck from the lightsaber.

During the battle the holocron of Tritos Nal was destroyed, which held the secrets Jeric had come for, and ended the fight. Maelous sensing the great power of Jeric Cyrin offered to create the helmet and restore his sight in exchange for becoming his apprentice. Jeric agreed, and supplied Maelous with all requested materials. It took him five weeks to create the helmet, and return his master’s sight. After the task was complete the quickly left Korriz and headed for Canti, Jeric’s homeworld.
