The star’s birth is speculated to have been at the exact moment of the decay of a bi-solar star, creating a series of chain reactions that were highly volatile and birthed the new, white star and its collection of orbiting masses. Not each of these masses formed into a solid entity; however, the fourth cluster formed and developed into an arctic wasteland of a world: Caina.<br /> <br /> The star was later charted during the Old Republic, some time before the rise of Darth Revan, and the resources of the third planet were soon in demand. Harvesting minerals and ore from the large polar caps of the frozen world, a number of corporations moved in on the system in hopes of striking a rich vein of material. Despite its glacial atmosphere, Caina evolved into a profitable mining colony and would remain such for the next fifty years until increased pirate activity drove the miners away.<br /> <br /> Lost, and seemingly forgotten, Caina would progress at her own pace over the next four thousand years - many of the glacial masses sealing the vast network of tunnels and mines as continued movement by the glaciers and the planets tectonic plates collapsed many of these networks or pushed new, richer veins to the utmost layer of the crust. Slowly, the planet rejuvenated itself and became wealthy in natural resources, once more.<br /> <br /> During the reign of Emperor Palpatine, the planet was chartered once more as a mining colony. Vast Imperial contractors approached the planet, hoping to strip the fertile lands and mines dry of their precious ore that would be sent to the Mid-Core for fabrication before later finding itself coating star fighters and capitol ships alike. While it did not replicate the durability of cortosis, it was rumored the metal had an abnormal ability to resist blaster fire when treated properly; a discovery designed and documented by the Kuat Drive Yards. <br /> <br /> With renewed activity in the sector - miners striking new veins of profitable metal daily - the pirate activity of the sector increased almost two hundred percent. Ignored initially, the pirates became emboldened by the Empire’s blind eye and struck out at several Imperial vessels. These attacks were reported immediately to the Sector Governor, or Moff, and his retribution was sure and swift. Traffic in and out was interdicted by the Moff’s Fleet, allowing his Task Force to purge the pirate threat from the nearby area. However, this three year long campaign had an averse effect on the market, driving the value of the material to practically naught.<br /> <br /> Holding no economical value, the colony withdrew from the planet a second time - leaving behind a minimal amount of individuals whom produced material to sustain themselves. Realizing the planet held relatively little value, the Moff pulled his ships out of the system - leaving it to its own demise. Settlers hoped that with less Empire involvement the traders and miners may return. Alas, new resources had been discovered elsewhere in the galaxy that were easier to mine. And located in much warmer climates than the frozen polar caps of Caina.<br /> <br /> The colony would fall into disarray until an Envoy of the Brotherhood, Consul Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine claimed the entire Cocytus System as his own under the banner of Scholae Palatinae. He placed numerous leaders upon the planet in an attempt to stimulate the once booming economy, but would never find success until after his reign. A powerful Quaestor, whom was destined to one day be Emperor, named Dakari would rehabilitate the planet’s economy and productivity by forging its denizens into craftsman and warriors. He used the planet’s harshness and cruelty to create a determined nation whom would not only mine on his behalf, but fabricate and forge new materials that could be used upon different planets to create necessary goods for use and trade.<br /> <br /> And so the planet would remain a mining colony even during the dissolution and resurrection of the prestigious Obelisk House.<br /> <br /> But the planet would not go unchanged. During the year of 27 ABY, the Yuuzhan Vong would invade the Cocytus System and use the narrow, warm belt of lands across Caina’s equator to establish their primary camps. As the miners of the colony only used tools, not technology, their lives were spared as they were herded into enslavement camps and utilized only during sacrificial ceremonies. However, their land would undergo unnatural changes - leaving traces of Yuuzhan Vong culture across the central lands. New vegetation and foreign structures - succession pools and damuteks - were erected as the alien invaders rooted themselves upon the planet’s surface.<br /> <br /> These structures, and changes, would remain upon the planet forever. Despite the successful campaign led by Obelisk Primarch Koskian d’Tana during the reign of Emperor Phoenix Olkyssagh d’Tana Palpatine that would rid the invaders from the planet and, eventually, the Cocytus System.<br /> <br /> ==Physical Geography==<br /> <br /> ===Lunar===<br /> <br /> ====The Bolgia Satellites==== <br /> Upon discovering the Cocytus System, then Consul Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine set about mapping the prominent features of the planets for Dark Council review. As he navigated through the ten satellites of Caina he labeled them after the Eighth Circle of Hell: Bolgia. Which had been divided into ten levels of barren land for sinners of the penultimate level. And, in the mind of the Krath, if he would deem the entire System the Ninth Circle… this surely would be the lesser, but near equivalent.<br /> <br /> ====Malebolge====<br /> The nearest moon to Caina, it is also the largest satellite in orbit above the icy world. Almost one sixteenth the size of the planet itself, Bolgia 1 rotates in a unique elliptical pattern that allows it to never cross into the path of the white star Imperius and the surface. Additionally, due to its size, the moon is also set alone on its orbit - with no threat of an additional moon colliding with its path.<br /> <br /> There is no contained atmosphere upon the moon, thus there is no vegetation or life present upon its surface. It does serve as a resource for the planet, though. During the invasion of the Yuuzhan Vong upon the Cocytus System the major production facility over Judecca was destroyed in the initial onslaught. To compensate for a decrease in productivity, temporary facilities were set-up on the moon’s surface.<br /> <br /> ====Malacoda==== <br /> The second moon orbiting Caina, it is also the smallest satellite in orbit above the icy world. A fraction of the size of Bolgia 1, this satellite travels an erratic pattern that causes numerous solar eclipses across the planet’s surface in a calendar year. These ‘dark spots’ are known to pass with relative quickness, but create such darkness that it feels tangible to those whom are trapped within its path. <br /> <br /> There is no contained atmosphere upon the moon, nor is there any sign of life. Unlike the largest satellite, Bolgia 2 offers no economical purpose or addition to the planet.<br /> <br /> ====Cagnazza==== <br /> The third moon orbiting Cain, serves no economical or agricultural purpose. Devoid of atmosphere and life, the moon has the longest orbital period of any satellite and requires a time period of five years to make a single orbit about the planet. Due to its irregular speed and above average size, when an eclipse does occur it leaves only ice in its wake.<br /> <br /> Recorded instances and tracking suggest the next eclipse will occur at 30 ABY and fall across the Northern Pole of the planet.<br /> <br /> ====Alechino==== <br /> The fourth orbital satellite is miniscule in size, but requires close attention as it is one of five moons whom have orbital paths that cross. Bolgia 4 is devoid of atmosphere and, thus, life. Though its surface suggests that previous attempts have been made to colonize the moon in an attempt to mine its natural resources - if any. There is also evidence of cataclysmic scarring where the satellite is believed to have collided with another object of similar size.<br /> <br /> ====Scarmilyone==== <br /> The fifth orbital satellite is miniscule in size, but requires close attention as it is one of five moons whom have orbital paths that cross. Bolgia 5 is devoid of atmosphere and, thus, life. Though its surface suggests that previous attempts have been made to colonize the moon in an attempt to mine its natural resources - if any. There is also evidence of cataclysmic scarring where the satellite is believed to have collided with another object of similar size.<br /> <br /> ====Calcebryna==== <br /> The sixth orbital satellite is miniscule in size, but requires close attention as it is one of five moons whom have orbital paths that cross. Bolgia 6 is devoid of atmosphere and, thus, life. Though its surface suggests that previous attempts have been made to colonize the moon in an attempt to mine its natural resources - if any. There is also evidence of cataclysmic scarring where the satellite is believed to have collided with another object of similar size.<br /> <br /> ====Barbicca==== <br /> The seventh orbital satellite is miniscule in size, but requires close attention as it is one of five moons whom have orbital paths that cross. Bolgia 7 is devoid of atmosphere and, thus, life. Though its surface suggests that previous attempts have been made to colonize the moon in an attempt to mine its natural resources - if any. There is also evidence of cataclysmic scarring where the satellite is believed to have collided with another object of similar size.<br /> <br /> ====Rubicanne==== <br /> The eighth orbital satellite is miniscule in size, but requires close attention as it is one of five moons whom have orbital paths that cross. Bolgia 8 is devoid of atmosphere and, thus, life. Though its surface suggests that previous attempts have been made to colonize the moon in an attempt to mine its natural resources - if any. There is also evidence of cataclysmic scarring where the satellite is believed to have collided with another object of similar size.<br /> <br /> ====Farefalla==== <br /> Bolgia 9 is one of the ‘Twin Moons’ as it shares similar features with the tenth moon and an identical orbital path. The two satellites, while traveling the same path, have never collided in recorded history. It is believed their path and similar mass are equally accelerated, and decelerated, by the gravitational pull of the icy world beneath.<br /> <br /> As the Twin Moons hold at positions at polar opposites, it allows for the denizens of the Cocytus System - more specifically Caina - to exploit the tactical advantage presented. While the specifics have yet to be revealed, it is believed that House Dorimad Sol operates two secret bases; one on each satellite.<br /> <br /> ====Grafficane==== <br /> Bolgia 10 is one of the ‘Twin Moons’ as it shares similar features with the ninth moon and an identical orbital path. The two satellites, while traveling the same path, have never collided in recorded history. It is believed their path and similar mass are equally accelerated, and decelerated, by the gravitational pull of the icy world beneath.<br /> <br /> As the Twin Moons hold at positions at polar opposites, it allows for the denizens of the Cocytus System - more specifically Caina - to exploit the tactical advantage presented. While the specifics have yet to be revealed, it is believed that House Dorimad Sol operates two secret bases; one on each satellite.<br /> <br /> ===Planetary===<br /> <br /> ====Continents====<br /> <br /> =====Ceart=====<br /> One of two, thin strips of considerably sized land uncovered by the polar caps of the planet, Ceart is host to a considerable amount of the population of the planet. Running parallel to the equator, the land starts in the east as a large piece of land; however, as it runs towards the west the land begins to narrow and twist towards the North. At one point the land merges with the glacial caps before turning back towards the South and curling in towards itself. <br /> <br /> Originally, these lands were desolate and bleak. Minimal amounts of foliage and ruff was available for agricultural use, though enough remained to sustain a minimal amount of populace. As it was near the equator, the mean temperature was fifty five degrees; however, recent changes to the environment have seen record high temperatures in the sixties appear.<br /> <br /> Change, however, did not come without a price. The crude, hard changes upon the planet came at the hands of the Yuuzhan Vong whom conquered the planet’s token defenses and extensively modified the western tip of Ceart to host their favored reformations. Several of the lakes were crafted into successions pools used to support a numerous amount of damuteks that served as barracks and chambers for the alien invaders. Additionally, several fields were sowed so the sentient beasts could establish a supply train as they overtook the Mid-Core system. Amongst these grown prizes were amphistaffs, crab armor and lambent crystals. Temperatures range from 35 degrees F to 65 degrees F.<br /> <br /> =====Bith-Bhuan=====<br /> One of two, thin strips of considerably sized land uncovered by the polar caps of the planet, Bith-Bhuan is host to a minimal amount of the planet’s population. Running parallel to the equator, the land starts in the west as a large, triangular shape of land; however, as it runs towards the east, the land begins to narrow and weave to the North and South, creating a series of seas between Bith-Bhuan and its sister continent of Ceart. Eventually the land comes to an end at a cliff. The sudden sheer of rock is believed to be the remnant of further tract of land that broke free due to tectonic shifting - forever being claimed by the deep, blue-grey ocean.<br /> <br /> While a considerable amount of usable land was shaped by the Yuuzhan Vong, those whom dwelled upon the bleak, wilting tundra to the South were unaffected. The alien invaders did not drive their changes towards the South - it is believed that change was stifled by Scholae Palatinae’s crusade against the Yuuzhan Vong in an effort to recapture the Cocytus System.<br /> <br /> Several large battles did occur on the Southern continent, however, and the damages, or scarring, of countless skirmishes can be seen from the sky. Much of the land that had once held life-saving vegetation is charred and burnt, lost in the heat of battle. Other landmarks are even less appealing as large mounds of dirt signify the unmarked, mass graves of both Yuuzhan Vong and soldiers of the Milita and Legions. Temperatures range from 30 degrees F to 55 degrees F.<br /> <br /> ====Islands====<br /> <br /> =====Ui Neill=====<br /> One of three islands nestled between the two, primary continents not composed of ice and ore. Ui Neill is the largest and most distinct of the trio, its square shape and placement between the two tendrils of Ceart and Bith-Bhuan. It is believed to be the absolute center of the planet from the North, East, South and West. <br /> <br /> Its shores are lined with glacial rocks of great enormity, their blue-purple hue casting a gloomy, yet mystical quality in the perpetual fog surrounding the island. The fog is believed to be a bi-product of an active chain of underground volcanoes whom heat the water, despite the cool atmospheric temperature of the planet. Only one break can be located in the halo of deadly rocks, extending in - as a channel - before a sharp left redirects the flow of water towards the actual center of the island.<br /> <br /> The environment upon the island is restricted to a collection of scraggly, pathetic trees and shrubs, scattered amongst the rocky soil and patches of snow. Though the plants that do thrive upon the island do yield exotic fruits or spices that can be useful for sustenance or, in the case of the spices, rituals requiring narcotic substances. This exotic array of vegetation and the sharp angles in the channel are evidence that points to the island being the legendary stronghold of King Neill’s sons.<br /> <br /> Temperatures hover around an approximate 65 degrees F.<br /> <br /> =====Corran Tuathail=====<br /> Resting to the west of Ceart’s twisting end, lies the island of Corran Tuathail. Originally heralded as an extension of the continent, it was later determined the land - despite the shallow sand bar connecting the two land masses - was environmentally differing from its nearby neighbor. <br /> <br /> Bridged to the continent of Ceart, an unnatural expanse of sand hides below a thing layer of ocean water. The white sands accent the blue-green water, giving it a shimmering and inviting appearance to those whom stand upon either shore. These inviting waters, however, hold a lethal secret. Due to the ten moons in orbit, the waters are continually pulled at; forcing the tide to rise and drop in a devastating pattern. Should one attempt to cross the paths without assistance of a seaworthy vessel, they would be swept under by the tides and lost to the sea.<br /> <br /> Though, when one does make it across they are greeted by a diversified expanse of land. The hardest piece of land to settle, the island of Corran Tuathail was allowed to prosper without the interference of miners. Despite the cold temperatures numerous delicate, fragile plants emerged from the soil. Many of the bountiful groves hold exotic fruit and vegetation in which only one planet was known to have also grown: Alderaan. These crops are wilting under the newfound changes of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, forcing those whom profit from their existence to resort to dramatic efforts to stabilize the environment. It is believed a giant, crystalline structure will be constructed over the island to preserve the rare goods. <br /> <br /> Temperatures range from 45 degrees F to 60 degrees F.<br /> <br /> =====Uasal=====<br /> The last of the island trio, Uasal rests on the far, East end of the continent of Bith-Bhuan. Barely registering as an island, the small mass of land is densely populated by a variety of hardwood trees. The number of trees - a rarity upon the surface of Caina - plays host to a wide variety of game that is uniquely located on the small island.<br /> <br /> It is believed that the island is capable of sustaining such amounts of life due to it’s ability to manufacture clear, drinkable water from the ocean water that courses into a small river mouth. While the actual method has never been documented, it has drawn the attention of scientists whom specialize in the theory of desalination.<br /> <br /> Temperatures range from 35 degrees F to 50 degrees F. <br /> <br /> ====Archipelagos====<br /> <br /> =====Poit=====<br /> A chain of three islands resting to the north of Ceart’s shores. The land mass is primarily created of saturated soil most commonly referred to as peat bog, or muck, amongst the natives. Due to its fertile environment, the islands are host to a variety of plant life; though, notably, none of the vegetation grows over six feet in height. <br /> <br /> The land is deemed ugly, as few of the bushes break from the brown and green canvas covering the land. Additionally, few of the trees are crisp and straight, most are twisted and distorted as if from a childhood nightmare. While locals accredit it to a myth concerning a dark beast, the Dark Siders of Scholae Palatinae have deemed the chain as a natural focal point for Dark Side energies; however, it does not permeate a definite unease or power like Korriban or Lehon. The island chain maintains an unnatural temperature of 30 degrees F.<br /> <br /> =====Cairdeas=====<br /> Consisting of two islands in close proximity, the chain of Cairdeas lies in the southwestern hemisphere, south of the shores of Bith-Bhuan. In the shape of two, facing crescents the land creates a natural barrier for a small lagoon between them; however, an underwater passage - unknown to many - connects the lagoon to the outside ocean; allowing natural predators to invade the waters when the pass is clear.<br /> <br /> Neither island is over hospitable, even though a small collection of natives relocated to the lands during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the planet. To sustain themselves, the once hearty miners adapted to a life of seafaring. Literally, harvesting their necessities from the seas and the nearby lagoon. With their presence introduced into the natural order, several new species of animal have taken root upon the islands. While majority of the animals were bred for domestication or food one or two predators have emerged to create balance. Yet, these creatures have yet to prove capable of taking down anything more than the occasional farm animal.<br /> <br /> Temperatures on the twin island paradise hover at approximately 65 degrees F due to a warm ocean current.<br /> <br /> =====Brathaireil=====<br /> A chain of six islands to the far east of the map, past the shores of Ceart, rests the Brotherly Islands. Or, as the denizens of the planet name them, the Brathaireil Chain. A grouping of fertile islands known in legend due to the differing bounties harvest upon each one - by land or sea - by six brothers. As myth would depict it, the brothers each harvested a bountiful, but singular crop each season; requiring trade with one another to prosper as a whole or find themselves lacking throughout the winter season. Scholars of Scholae Palatinae believe the legend to be myth, an old wife’s tale to introduce the importance of sharing in preparation for the cold, harsh winters of Caina.<br /> <br /> What scholars cannot discredit, however, is the presence of the Brotherly Chain and evidence that suggests it was inhabited hundred of years ago. Before conclusive data could be collected, the alien invaders conquered the small chain and terraformed it to suit the demands needed for the introduction of an array of crops.<br /> <br /> =====Brigh=====<br /> Composed of three islands, the Chain of Brigh sets in the far, western horizon from the shores of Bith-Bhuan. The trio of islands seemingly rise out of the ocean’s fog, as if they had recently returned from a time of ancient myth or legend. Though scientific data shows a series of hot springs circulating through the chain; creating the elusive atmosphere and fog surrounding them.<br /> <br /> A number of boulders line the shore and set half emerged in the warm spring beds of each island. The size of the rocks seemingly decrease as one heads closer to the center, or apex, of each land mass until the immense rocks are nothing more than pebbles strewn within the soft, white sand spread along the coastline. The oddity of the large rocks - and their presence - is attributed to massive upheavals the planet underwent during the initial stages of Vong planet forming. However, the interior of the islands were unaffected by these changes and remain a collection of matted, dense grass and the occasional shrub or tree littered amongst the tracts of land.<br /> <br /> Beyond the hot springs, the lands provide no economical advantage despite their near constant temperature of 70 degrees F.<br /> <br /> =====Borb=====<br /> With the Sea of Moving Ice rests a small cluster of four islands whom resists the perpetual pounding of their shores to offer wayward travelers their last chance of salvation should an emergency arise. Often labeled as The Fingers by the population of Caina, the four juts of land rise high into the sky, well above the flowing sheets of polar ice that break against their foundations. <br /> <br /> Believed to be the tips of a great underwater mountain range, the cone shaped peaks are pocketed with a series of caves and bluffs to prevent detection from outside invaders or shelter abandoned travelers. Though, amidst the frigid sea, the land offers no real sustenance other than several traces of minerals used in herbal compounds to dull pain and rejuvenate one’s immune system. <br /> <br /> Though the land offers protection from near constant winds, the land remains chilled as the air hangs thickly upon the land at a 30 degrees F.<br /> <br /> ==Cities==<br /> <br /> === Daemon=== <br /> [[image:daemon2.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|A veiw of the bustling spaceport at Caina's capital]]The capital city and focal point of off-world trade for the planet of Caina. Unique in its architecture, Daemon’s truth worth can be found within the ground it sits upon. A massive spaceport sprawls across the ground - a host of docking pads, customs stations, storage units and mechanical sheds encircling the Victory-Class enabled landing pad. The only distinctly different feature of the spaceport are the four gates - massive archways with ramps leading down - at the four cardinal directions: north, south, east and west. <br /> <br /> The pathways lead to a complex network of mined tunnels and domiciles, or chambers, that can hold over one hundred thousand individuals; though, in times of war or peril, the facility has accommodated nearly five hundred thousand occupants. The mason work was created and fine-tuned during the Galactic Empire’s reign over the planet of Caina. A series of rich veins produced astounding results, drawing the attention of one mega-corporation whom - unable to restore the ground - expended additional resources to create an ultra-chic resort. Though the initial blueprints had been drawn up and the equipment delivered, the presence of pirates drove off potential investors and the corporation abandoned the project. However, during the reign of then Quaestor Dakari, the operation was renewed by weak-minded drones under the soon-to-be Consul’s mental influence.<br /> <br /> The archways themselves are designed as defensive holdouts against an invading army. Structuring defensive fortifications into the initial design were a personal touch of the Obelisk Consul, allowing the floor plan to bottle up a larger, opposing force. Additionally, he ensured further advantage by forcing opponents through a series of tight turns and jogs that would not allow for shots from distance; effectively preventing the use of snipers within the complex. These defensive labyrinths are short lived, however, quickly giving ground to the highest levels of the underground city.<br /> <br /> At the highest levels, those closest to the surface reside the homes and shops of the city proper. The chambers were sculpted for efficiency; thus, they lack the lavish space and opulence afforded by chambers lower in the mines. An estimated eighty percent of the population live in these initial levels and provide the most general day-to-day supplies necessary for living. Hidden just below this layer rests the richest and most ‘well off’ class of Daemon. The Nobles of Caina have carved luxurious palaces and mansions from the bedrock hundred of feet beneath the surface - where vacant space is the most lavish of excesses. Some of the homes are built within the rock, while other clusters occupy natural, open caverns to build their homes up within.<br /> <br /> At the lowest, charted levels reside the workshops and mines in which the citizens still utilize to craft product and patch custom work brought to Caina’s expert blacksmiths. A series of natural furnaces are created by the planet, allowing metals to be heated to unnatural levels - even to the point where additional metals can be melded together to create hybrid products. Several prominent pieces of weaponry have come from these workshops before filtering into the Brotherhood itself. In addition to fine workshops, the city has also utilized the lowest level to safeguard their valuables. A series of vaults were created within the basement level and are guarded by servants, or instruments, of Scholae Palatinae - the Royal Clan of Judecca. Beyond the fortified entrances, these troves of valuables are the second most heavily guarded resources in the underground metropolis.<br /> <br /> It is also rumored that beyond the guarded vaults a series of passageways lead further into the bowels of the planet - where only members of the illustrious Royal Clan are allowed to walk. The true nature of what Dakari found deep in those caves remains a secret to all except the proud warriors assigned to House Dorimad Sol.<br /> <br /> === Cervus=== <br /> [[image:townhall1.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|The newly constructed Town Hall]]Leveled during the invasion of the Yuuzhan Vong, the city of Cervus stands as a shell of its former self. Once proudly erected in an Athenian style or opulent temples and open-air villas, the city has been turned on its head. The great, white pillars of stone have been knocked asunder by the strange alien invaders; some of the stone has, in fact, been dissolved by their chemicals and altered changes upon the planet’s surface.<br /> <br /> Though, amid the wreckage, the denizens have found hope. At the center of their previous existence they have erected an enormous covered shelter by collecting the remaining pillars and stone that had laid scattered about the ground. This building, or foundation, has been labeled as the Town Hall and from it all growth - mental and physical - stems. <br /> <br /> Under the direction of a Cerean, the town has begun to reawaken in the wake of their tragedy: children play, crops are sown, old men argue their philosophical differences. In addition to their mental and emotional growth, a detailed outline has been assembled as they rebuild their once pristine habitat within the new environment introduced upon the continent of Ceart. Already, the craftsmen have been commissioned to craft the Noble’s Merit Awards - blades, shields, gauntlets, helms - for the forthcoming ten-year. The money awarded for the fine items not only sustains the needs of the village, but gives them the funds necessary to continue rebuilding.<br /> <br /> To the north of the Town Hall a great coliseum has been erected. While failing in comparison to the monolith upon the surface of Judecca, the arena is more than serviceable for the seasoned warriors and duelists upon the icy planet. To the east of this structure a new academy is being founded to instruct both children and adults in the theories and necessities of life beyond the field. The structure is simple in nature, rising only three stories in height and spanning two hundred yards in length and width. At the center rests a great stage to be used by aspiring actors and novices of the craft. <br /> <br /> Additional building has been planned, but has yet to come into fruition: temples, monuments, homes, workshops. Though, it is believed under the steady gaze of the Cerean all of the town’s plans will succeed.<br /> <br /> ===Sartis===<br /> [[image:sartis1.jpg|thumb|right|200 px|The snowy town of Sartis]]A primitive outpost located in the far depths of the northern hemisphere upon the polar ice. Once thought to be a lost civilization due to it’s existence being unrecorded and visually hidden by the snow and peaks of the north, Sartis remains a banner of a once great nation.<br /> <br /> Before the advancements made in mining, a great tribe of individuals roamed the lands of the north - using the land to sustain their way of life. The nomads followed a four-legged, antlered beast that not only provided meat and warm furs, but it led the small nation from water hole to water hole. This symbiotic lifestyle continued as both the animals and sentient humans flourished upon the open tundra. At the pinnacle of their achievements, the first Republic mining vessel landed upon the planet’s surface and began to alter, and shape, their future progression. The tribe splintered as the majority headed south for the wonders and riches promised by the intergalactic travelers. The remainder returned to a known safe spot upon the tundra to establish a more permanent way of life, less dependent on their symbiotic relationship, yet more in tune with the ancient traditions they had upheld for thousands of years.<br /> <br /> The city, or camp, is constructed from a meager amount of wood provided upon the plains and the walls are made of either mud or animal pelts. The crude fashioning keeps the harshest of elements from penetrating their abodes; however, it does not provide a steady indoor temperature and is a primary factor in the high mortality rate within the city. The highest structure within the entire encampment is a two story building of great enormity which the locals have labeled The Lodge. It is here that the town gathers each night as they share in a tribal feast and conduct the business before them in a democratic vote. <br /> <br /> The simple nature of their buildings and lifestyle make the city almost unworthy of general recognition if it were not for the city’s close proximity to the Crystal Caves. The nearby caves are a incredible sight as the pure arctic light filters in through several openings, before refracting through a thousand different crystals to create an illumination unimaginable at such depths. While not directly contributed to the people of Sartis, it is believed the nomads settled nearby the caves as reminder of their once great nation.<br /> <br /> === Calynos===<br /> The southernmost center of civilization upon the surface of Caina. Calynos resides in the center of a collection of small city-states; acting as the capital, or center, for trade and discussion amongst the area’s inhabitants. The area is, seemingly, sparsely populated due to the small number of citizens spread over a great amount of land.<br /> <br /> Located on the edge of a great waterway, Calynos is a town of simple construct. The homes are constructed with carved stone from the vast quarries of the South, but do not rise higher than a single story. It is believed this is due to the walls being a single block instead of being fashioned from many small blocks – as the population lacks the technology to lift the great slabs, but possesses the machinery to haul the stone. To construct a proper roof, the trusses and covering is constructed from light, tempered tin. It is said that a queer, ringing tone erupts from the roofs when rain beats down upon its surface. The last, distinct attribute of common housing in the town is that the homes lack windows and doors. Artificial lighting – originally candles before technological advancements were introduced – dispels the darkness within. Unique in construct, however, are the portals permitting access into homes. Each home has an entry hall that leads ten feet into the home before angling ninety degrees to either the right or left and continuing another ten to twenty feet, before an opening appears leading into the house proper.<br /> <br /> The remainder of the city is ordinary beyond explanation except for the large harbor located on the northern perimeter. A massive, jagged rock bar breaks the surf before it can slam into the soft, white sand shores of Calynos. The natural barrier, with two openings that permit vessels out, has created a deep pocket of calm water. In the past, this port had been used to ship products from the city and conduct trade with the other colonies. With the introduction of speeders and personal crafts, however, the port has fallen into a strictly commercial role. One note of mystery, though, is the construct of the great piers; massive pillars and planks of wood that is not native to the surface of Caina.<br /> <br /> ===Lusid=== <br /> [[image:lusid2.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|The Vongformed City of Lusid]]At the conclusion of Scholae Palatinae’s attempt to reclaim the Cocytus System from the Yuuzhan Vong, housing and shelter for the inhabitants of the planet Caina was in short supply. To offset this deficiency then Consul, and Emperor, Phoenix Olkyssagh d’Tana Palpatine ordered the soldiers of House Dorimad Sol to secure the largest cluster of alien structures for permanent settlement.<br /> <br /> Surrounding what had once been the Great Lake of Decroix is a massive, enclosed structure of Vong construction known as a succession pool. The self-contained facility stores the heart, lungs and kidneys of the surrounding structures. As the buildings themselves were living, the succession pool would provide nourishment and remove the waste of the adjoining facilities. Without this support, the living structures would become unusable.<br /> <br /> Located around the succession pool, near the water, were giant star-fish shaped constructs called damuteks, rising nearly two stories into the air. Operating as any living thing, the building was dependent on water and nutrients – provided by the succession pool – to facilitate barracks for the warriors, offices for intendants, laboratories for attendants or additional storage facilities. While several of the buildings have remained in their original state, Clan Scholae Palatinae has remodeled most of the structures into barracks; bringing in necessary fixtures such as bunks, refreshers and other necessities.<br /> <br /> Several distinct, secure buildings also populate the area. The large shell spiraled, creating numerous interior chambers, towards the sky – three by sixteen meters in size. These structures were the last to be penetrated by the House Dorimad Sol as their entrances – gricha – were sealed. Generally, these buildings were used as temples or command structures of the Yuuzhan Vong. They have since been redesigned to act as centers for communications, food distribution, and VIP guests.<br /> <br /> Two remaining structures, vivariums, are under constant guarding. These structures were constructed as ‘clean rooms’ for the Shapers, or scientists, of the Yuuzhan Vong. It was in these facilities that careful experiments and ground-breaking bioengineering would take place. Upon initial, cursory searches of the facilities, several Dark Jedi became infected with uncontrolled viruses which had been cultivated by a resident Shaper.<br /> <br /> ==Notable Landmarks==<br /> <br /> ===The Blade===<br /> A massive formation, known as the Heart of Caina, rests along the equator of the planet. Known as the deployment point of the soldiers of Dorimad Sol, it is said that the retaking of the planet spread outward from this point – giving it a significant meaning to the inhabitants of the planet. More distinct, and meaningful, at the top of the rock outcropping rests a blade of sapphire plunged deep into the peak. It is rumored that when the Clan conquered the Yuuzhan Vong host upon the planet that one of the soldiers plunged his sacrificial blade into the Heart of Caina. The blade served as a memorial to the sacrifices made on behalf of those soldiers and, as a banner, sign that the land was now under the control of the reopened House Dorimad Sol.<br /> <br /> It is said that when the sun begins to descend over the horizon that the sun will penetrate the depths of the blade, refracting a gentle, blue light over the country side. And that on the anniversary of their freedom the light will reveal the soldiers whom lost their lives, standing in formation, saluting, before The Blade.<br /> <br /> ===Dakari’s Solitude===<br /> [[image:ruins2.jpg|thumb|right|200 px|Dakari's Solitude]]The original headquarters of ancient Dorimad Sol. The small, Spartan temple was renamed in honor of long standing Quaestor Dakari Kaeth – whom was the last commander of the House before it as closed. It was said that even after the House closed and his elevation to the Clan Summit, Dakari would revisit this mystical temple to meditate and reflect on decisions that would lead Scholae Palatinae into a second Golden Age.<br /> <br /> Built into the face of a mountain, using the natural erosion of a cave, the temple reaches back from the mouth of the cavern to the deep bowels of the mountain. A narrow, defendable tunnel leads from the entrance, sloping downward, before it opens to the first cavern. This facility served as a training ground and defense post should the House ever come under ground attack. In the rear of this room are two tunnels: one leading to the barracks and kitchens, the other towards the altar of Dorimad Sol and the Quaestor’s chambers.<br /> <br /> The altar of Dorimad Sol is the deepest of caverns. Within it rests a stone altar that measures three feet by six feet. Resting on the black stone is a long, white silk sheet that rests under the remnants of a shattered Sith Sword; presumably the blade of the notorious sword master, Dorimad Sol. The blade is broken into seven pieces, but the hilt remains intact with the emblem of the sun – Dorimad Sol’s Coat of Arms – upon the pommel.<br /> <br /> ===Kas’im Citadel===<br /> [[image:Kasim.jpg|thumb|right|200 px|Combat hall at Kas'im Citadel]]Built at the conclusion of the Reclamation Campaign, former Emperor Braecen Kaeth requested the resources to build a training facility specifically for those whom wished to serve as his pupils, learning the Art of the Saber.<br /> <br /> The man responsible for training Lightsaber Studies upon the surface of Lyspair, a moon of Antei, he has dedicated countless years to perfecting his form and learning the ins and outs of the additional forms of the Brotherhood. With direct access to the records and instructions used to build the Brotherhood’s guide to the art, he has made a scholarly pursuit to know not only the ‘known’ forms, but to reconstruct the countless variations that had sprung up throughout the galaxy over the course of thousands of years.<br /> <br /> The Citadel is a building of epic proportions, fashioned after the massive Cathedral of Light within the Jusadih System. The building reaches fifty feet into the sky with countless spires and towers erupting from the base of its roof. To support its massive weight and ensure its structural integrity, countless buttresses have been constructed along the length of the building – furthering its appearance as a building of considerable size. At the south edge of the building rests a series of steps that lead to a plateau – twenty feet by twenty feet – before massive ten foot doors of a rich, foreign wood that has been sanded and stained to a deep, glossy red – accenting the white limestone of the building’s exterior.<br /> <br /> Upon entering the structure a massive hall greets one’s eye. The hall is devoid of any objects except for various items arranged along the perimeter walls: weapon racks, cabinets, tables and stools. The flooring, however, is constructed of a rigid, textured material most commonly found in a training dojo. The flooring provides adequate protection for the warriors whom come to learn the art of sparring and the lightsaber.<br /> <br /> To the rear of the structure are two more doors not unlike those at the front of the Citadel, but of lesser size. Past these doors are the chambers of the residing mentor. Past those doors, lining the walls, are ancient manuscripts pertaining to lightsaber combat or historical references that include the use of a blade. While the knowledge is largely incomplete, it is the duty of the Citadel’s Master to continue pursuing the knowledge necessary to craft the willing of Scholae Palatinae into bladeborn.<br /> <br /> ===Whitestone Glade===<br /> [[image:Whitestoneglade2.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|The Mysterious outcroppings at Whitestone Glade]]Within one of the equatorial valleys resides an expanse of lush, green grass dotted with countless boulders that break up the smooth, fertile land. The massive rocks, unlike those common of Caina, are a bright, radiating white. These white stones have only been found within this lone valley; perplexing scientists whom attempt to explain how such an anomaly came into existence.<br /> <br /> Creating further dismay amongst the Dark Jedi of the Cocytus System is that the stones seem to create a blanket of static, or white noise, to those whom use the Force in close proximity. Attempts to sense life, send or receive messages or affect another’s mind in this valley will be unsuccessful.<br /> <br /> ===Sea of Moving Ice===<br /> [[image:Seaofice.jpg|thumb|right|200 px|The shifting ice.]]Due to the altering of the ecosystem by the extragalactic invaders, the northern ice caps of the planet have begun to melt as the average temperatures of the planet begin to climb. This has resulted into large chunks of the polar cap to fall into the ocean, before breaking into smaller, floating sections. The result is a blanket of ice chunks that make nautical travel impossible from the northern continent to the glaciers.<br /> <br /> It is not uncommon for sailors, or seafarers, to fall victim to the ice should they travel too closely to the treacherous sea. Despite the rising temperatures, the edges of these ice formations can wreak havoc on vessels without the proper plating.<br /> <br /> ===Tomb of Bones===<br /> Near the city of Daemon, capital city of Caina, rests an archway of intricately wrought stone and iron. Rippling through the stone are various veins of ore mined from the depths of the planet, separated by dark bands of metal; giving the opening an archaic appearance. <br /> <br /> The opening leads to a steep, downward path that leads into the planet itself. A series of torches burn eternally along the path, casting the corridor in a shadowy, flickering darkness known to send a chill down one’s spine. Eventually, the path levels out, opening to a labyrinth of twisting paths meant to act as a natural barrier against intruders and thieves. Of a hundred fake trails of varying design and construct, one path is true and leads to the temple of Fallen Kings.<br /> <br /> At the end of the labyrinth, the path is barred by an ancient door requiring a key held by the ruler of Daemon. This key grants the bearer access to the catacombs of the fallen Lords of Daemon, a chamber reserved for the dead to be honored eternally. The cut chambers process down a long, elegant hall to the inner sanctum of the cemetery known as the Temple of Bone. A shaft of sunlight, channeled by various mirrors through a series of shafts leading to the surface, sprawls down upon a shield bearing the mark of Daemon. Surrounding the shield are countless candles, which are lit in honor of a fallen king or the appointment of a new ward – assistants whom serve the King eternally – of the Emperor.<br /> <br /> It is here that, should an Emperor fall, the rulers of the Cocytus System are buried. Additionally, once the Order of the Imperial Knights was established, it is the place where the Emperor anoints them as one of his guardians – elevating them to his inner-order.<br /> <br /> ===Grandfather Tree===<br /> [[image:Grandfathertree.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|The Grandfather Tree.]]<br /> An ancient tree of great proportions, the object reaches into the sky to a peak of one hundred feet. The base of the tree reaches fifty paces across with a circumference of nearly three hundred meters. The lower branches, capable of holding the weight of a star fighter, weave in and out of the goliath base and are covered with countless smaller branches covered in foliage.<br /> <br /> This tree was the only biological specimen to resists Yuuzhan Vong terraforming. It is believed that the antiquity of the tree has imbued it with powerful resistances against poisons and damaging insects – perfect evolution throughout countless centuries.<br /> <br /> Legends state that the ancient population buried a great treasure beneath the tree when it was but a sapling, giving it the power to last eternally. <br /> <br /> ===Forgotten Mines===<br /> Several times throughout the history of Caina miners have probed deep into the planet, harvesting its natural deposits of ore and mineral. Some of the veins ran deep, others were shallow and yielded poor quality. What both share in common, however, is that the institutions whom mined these materials did not fill, record the location of, or block the entrances to these structures.<br /> <br /> Untold mines remain uncharted across the surface of Caina. Not only are these occurrences extremely hazardous to travelers whom are unaware, but are notoriously poor for moving ground forces of extreme number, and weight, across the surface. In an attempt to negate this tactical disadvantage, the House of Dorimad Sol has begun to chart these paths. It is their hope that they can use these hollowed paths for their advantage should the planet ever come under assault once more.<br /> <br /> ==Outlook==<br /> <br /> ===Political===<br /> <br /> In the beginning days of Caina’s growth, the industrial mining companies whom held the largest contract with the Republic or Galactic Empire ascended to the position of power. In addition to overseeing their own operations, the companies would use their wealth, or clout, to sway the direction of activities going on upon, and below, the surface of Caina.<br /> <br /> However, the planet spent far more time under its own rule, establishing its own system over thousands of years. During this time the population would gather into nations, swearing their fealty to the sovereign rules of the planet. Claiming lordship of all nations, the Kingdom of Daemon the Black would rule absolute throughout history. Under the omnipotent ruler the nations would be broken into sectors, then regents under the control of his court.<br /> <br /> This political system would remain until Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine claimed lordship of the Cocytus System. It would be at that point in time the heir of Daemon would swear his fealty to the then Consul – creating an ally capable of backing the Royal Clan as they entered the political fray of Judecca. For their contributions, the city and her King would be handsomely rewarded – allowed to continue their way of life until the days of the Yuuzhan Vong.<br /> <br /> During the invasion of the Yuuzhan Vong the leader of Daemon would be slain. With no heir, the choice of successor would be given to then Consul, Phoenix Olkyssagh d’Tana Palpatine. Carefully modifying the bylaws of the System and Clan, the Emperor established the Quaestor of Dorimad Sol would hold three positions: House Leader, King of Daemon &amp; Surface Marshall. With a contingent of powerful Dark Jedi, four Legions of troopers and the right to rule – granted by the Emperor – the man whom occupied the position of Quaestor would be allowed to establish a powerful base of power for Clan Scholae Palatinae.<br /> <br /> ===Military===<br /> <br /> The feudal, warring nature of Ciana has not been without gain. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of their planet, the people rose up to fight as a unified force under their leaders. While the forces were unable to defeat the invaders, they were capable of creating a stalemate to delay their foe until Scholae Palatinae could mobilize an effort to retake the planet.<br /> <br /> The war proved difficult to the inhabitants as they suffered numerous losses of both troops and officers in the battle. What resulted, however, was a culling – of the ignorant and weak – from the planet’s warring population. The population adapted to life as warriors, gearing themselves into a cohesive unit while those unable to fight assisted in caring for the wounded, producing weapons or acting as messengers between the armies. At the conclusion of the war, the best and brightest would be recognized for their efforts – receiving new commands, and duties, within the kingdom that best utilized their newfound skills. Thus, the future of the militia was guaranteed to be successful.<br /> <br /> To bolster the military might of the planet, safeguarding against future invasion attempts, the Emperor would reopen the House Dorimad Sol. To assist the powerful household of Force-Sensitive individuals, the Grand Marshall would station the Eclipse Regiment to support the Quaestor in his task. With four thousand troops at his back the Quaestor would work with the planet’s people to build strongholds across the surface.<br /> <br /> == See Also ==<br /> * [[Judecca]]<br /> * [[Antenora]]<br /> * [[Ptolomea]]<br /> * [[Cocytus System]]<br /> <br /> [[Category: Planets]]<br /> [[Category:Scholae Palatinae Dominion]]</div>

Few had fought galantly. Even fewer survived. For most, the war had ended. For the fearless heroes of the Sun, Sword, and Dragon, the real conflict had only just begun...”| Unknown}}<br /> <br /> The title of Dark Paladin is awarded Quarterly to the most prominent member of [[CSP]] outside of a summit role.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==The Dark Paladins==<br /> <br /> The Paladins fall under the direct command of the Consul. Created in the third year of [[Jac Cotelin|Cotelin]], at the dawn of the [[Seventh Great Jedi War]], their purpose was to uphold the Clan ethos and stand as a shining example of what an active member should strive to represent unto the [[Clan]]. Through them, the [[Clan Summit]] would encourage additional activity and discipline -- creating a series of role models that were very public not only within the Clan, but also to the other Clans watching from the distance. Additionally, it served as a way to reward the members in a manner that was both professional and beneficial to all included. For while the duties of such a member were increased, it was with reason.<br /> <br /> As the crushing Fist of Palpatine, the Dark Paladin personified the terrors of Sith Lord. Always the first to war, The Paladin would hold high the banner of the Clan, drawing the troops onward. So too, in times of peace this tenacious Member worked undyingly for the Clan. To display this, the Member was given a set of privileges to help them help the clan.<br /> <br /> ==Rights and Responsibilities==<br /> <br /> The Paladin of new is awarded a status equivalent to that of an [[Aedile]]. This is meant for means of communication (encouraging activity), responsibility (monitoring IRC and Message Boards) and mentorship (training new and old members alike).<br /> <br /> All Paladins are granted access to restricted sections of the Clan Headquarters that are normally reserved for the Clan Summit alone (minus the personal quarters of the Clan Envoy, [[Proconsul]], and [[Consul]]). This privilege is granted for access into the Paladin’s Chambers and the additional security needed to safeguard the Lords of Scholae Palatinae.<br /> <br /> Additionally, to the in-Clan chambers, they are granted the option of constructing their own castle, which they may claim as their own. This can be used for recreational, living or training purposes - in many ways it resembles the Praetorian Guard’s barrack just outside of Rome. Only Paladins are admitted into this complex, unless someone has a personal invite.<br /> <br /> Penultimate rites are confined to ship selection. In times of war or peace, these warriors are allowed to choose their weapon of war. At any time they may commandeer a vessel in the name of the Consul. This privilege may only be enforced during times of war or in the event of aggressive action.<br /> <br /> Finally, the final honor of a Dark Paladin is the award of an extremely fine weapon crafted in the mines that pocket [[Judecca]]’s surface in the North. The grandest of weapon smiths is given a block of steel and instructed to build a weapon worthy of a great warrior. They labor in their forges for many days, pouring their will into the metal, crafting its’ edges to perfection and decorating it ornately before the day it is presented to the wielder.<br /> <br /> The Paladins are also granted the free reign to build upon their existence in the form of crusades, additional details, ranks and dynamics approved by the Clan Leader. It is the hope that this Elite Fraternity will develop into something that is self-productive and ultimately becomes the standard within Scholae Palatinae’s way of life. There also stands the chance that, at a later date, a High Paladin may be named to continue generating additional material and emphasis on the benefits of attaining such a rank. Until then, it is the mission of the First Paladin to accept responsibility for his newly minted position as those join him at a later date.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Female Dark Paladin Armour.jpg|thumb|left|200 px|The Female version of the Dark Paladin armour]]<br /> ==Roll of Dark Paladins==<br /> <br /> Sith Battlelord [[Thran Occasus]]<br /> <br /> Krath Epis [[Impetus M'Nar Palpatine]]<br /> <br /> Krath Epis [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/dbjedi/dossier.asp?ID=236 Adam Anderson]<br /> <br /> Sith Warrior [[Tyno]]<br /> <br /> Obelisk Prelate [[Angelo Dante]]<br /> <br /> Obelisk Prelate [[Cethgus Incendia Zor-El]] (Stripped of title due to desertion and cowardice.)<br /> <br /> Sith Warrior [[Eludajae &quot;Lynx&quot; M'Nar]]<br /> <br /> Sith Warrior [[Robin Hawk]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Clan Scholae Palatinae]]</div>

His stories are renowned. I would guess that is why you seek of him from myself. <br /> <br /> ===Cerean Life===<br /> Life on Cerean is what most Galatians would consider archaic at best. Daily life goes without most electronic technology that revolutionizes life. Only in the colonial space stations, mostly housing non-Cereans, does the high-tech life around the system show face. This comes from years of bloodshed culminating during the Battle of Cerea during the Clone Wars. Since, Cerea has restructured society to isolate themselves from trifles of galactic politics. Only a handful of rare, talented Cereans would ever leave the planet anyway. Some would go for advances in education, which would then be shared at home and integrated in the universities on the planet. <br /> <br /> ===Beginnings===<br /> PJ, as he is often nicknamed by members of the Brotherhood, comes from Ta-Gal, a small city far removed from even the others in Cerean society. Perhaps this complete isolation explains why Ta-Gal has produced more outbound Cereans than any other place on the planet. <br /> <br /> His mother was queen of Ta-Gal at the time of his birth and early childhood. Now she acts as the town's representative to the Council of Elders. This royal lineage made Prajna a local celebrity from birth. He has told me to great lengths of some of his devilish deed he would get away with, always because of his mother. One story he loves to retell talks of his dark beginnings where he would dip teachers' tools in mud, or swipe food from the elder women of town. He was quite a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Daranu Daranu] if you ask me.<br /> <br /> He is also boasted of his records set for speed among his people. As a young boy he raced the older sons and daughters of the town who would next leave for Tecave City and the higher education universities there. In the race, though still small and under-developed physically, he won by minutes to even the promising and energetic teens. Another story is of Prajna stealthily snaring a baby aryx from under her mother's roost. He raised the animal, and later used her frequently to travel about before finally leaving the planet.<br /> <br /> ===Education===<br /> By his his eleventh birthday, Prajna had far outgrown the small town. Prajna's father took him to Tecave City the day after a large farewell and birthday party. However, many of the residence were celebrating a liberation from the increasingly evil pranks and thefts the child was committing. The Queen knew he was specially skilled, however, with speed and cunning that was not just natural. He just needed discipline and a clean outlet for his energy. This is why his father took Prajna to meet Lady Berkana, Guardian of Cerea sine the Jedi Purge.<br /> <br /> Lady Berkana was not a Jedi, or even very Force Sensitive. However, she had trained under Ki-Adi Mundi and in fact been a mistress of his when she was young. Still, she was a cunning warrior, even as the signs of aging finally caught up to her. As Guardian, the Mistress lived in a modest palace surrounded by a hundred acres of gardens, all enclosed from the outside world of the city. For three years, Prajna did nothing by study. He would read piles of books, learning of history, art and culture. It was the warfare, though, that really attracted and inspired him to stay awake for days on end. Berkana brought him modern technologies, immersing him in their familiarity that he would surely need if he was to one day replace her when she retired. Prajna would especially search out details of battle tactics, studying everything from ancient Jedi basics to the extreme efficiency of the empire. <br /> <br /> He was required to work hard labor in the gardens daily. This allowed him to properly grow into the body that now was showing signs of large growth, even for a Cerean. When he peaked height over his master at fourteen, it was time for her to begin to teach him more than just combat from books. Besides, he had read everything she could acquire already. Lady Berkana was said to be a master martial artist, skilled in Steal Hands and Shadow Fist. She had been taught by actual Echani when serving her Jedi idol. Even a special crab-like form had been shown to her. It was this unique grappling style that intrigued PJ the most, but it was this she knew the least and so held back.<br /> <br /> She trained him in several unarmed combat styles, and also the Cerean legendary Shyarn-Ado. Prajna would always return bruised and bloody, but allowed him to learn first aid hands on. This is also when Prajna's master discovered his extraordinary ability of recovery. She had only seen it once before, but her idol and secret love was long dead. When Prajna was nearing his sixth year under the training of his master, she sat him down after a particularly successful bout in which Lady Berkana was more beaten than the younger Cerean. This is when she told him of what she knew of the Force. She also pronounced his training complete and banished him from the gardens.<br /> <br /> Prajna became infuriated, to his Master's great surprise. They fought again, and Lady Berkana held nothing back, whooping the angry youth close to death before he finally withdrew.<br /> <br /> ===Galactic Space===<br /> Prajna once laughed on how big he found the galaxy to be after six years contained in the gardens of the Guardian of Cerea. He traveled to the city-planet of Coruscant, the dessert-planet Tatooine, and the ocean-planet Mon Calamari. each was something far different from the plains, mountains, and jungles of his planet. <br /> <br /> It was then that Prajna discovered cantinas. They had exotic women who could do things his binary brains had never even dreamed of. They had potent alcohol that far exceeded the mild drinks he had tasted in his secret excursions through the city around his garden prison. Mostly though, Prajna would go to cantinas for fighting. He found he loved to fight. He was larger than the weirdly shaped humans with their shallow, pointless skulls. His training also let him viciously drop even groups of gangs who might try to jump him after too much drinking or a flirtatious gaze at one of their women. A number of cantinas added &quot;Cereans&quot; next to robots and other miscreants not allowed to enter. He really enjoyed causing too much trouble. <br /> <br /> It was after one brawl Prajna left four street thugs unconscious that he was approached by a hooded figure with yellow eyes. He had his first job. Prajna now was an assassin for hire. After his first kill, the mad Cerean lusted for more. He killed dozens of people, a few not even for money. However, his eighteenth birthday sobered him up enough to remember his Master, and her last discussion with him. The Force whispered to him, and Prajna disappeared to look for a Jedi.<br /> <br /> He decided to return home, after more than a year of his hardening lifestyle. He had already acquired a Theta-class T-2c shuttle, refurbished after lifting it from one of his targets. Upon first entering Cerea, he ignored the communications tower, easily vaped two pilots on patrol duty, and then maneuvered into the atmosphere. Instantly, he felt chills: he was home.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a raid to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contact with the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> Prajna has two apprentices, Bal Commas and [[Tollo]].<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> Former Aedile of the greatest House to ever be a part of Clan Scholae Palatinae and the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still coming back after being around for over four years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclaimer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> Prajna worked with two Consuls Braecen and Phoenix to host the Independence Games in 2008.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna (pronounced Prahj-nuh) comes from Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

[[Proconsul]] [[Phoenix Olkyssagh Palpatine]] proclaimed himself as [[Consul]], and Emperor of the System near the start of the war since he easily recognised the early signs of insanity that [[Braecen Kaeth]] was showing. Lucien was named as his Proconsul, with the reopening of [[House Dorimad Sol]] and the appointment of new leaders throughout the Clan, although [[House Acclivis Draco]]'s Summit was not touched. Over the course of several days, Scholae Palatinae gradually retook the system, and reclaimed [[Antenora]], [[Caina]], [[Judecca]] and [[Ptolomea]].<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> ===Gathering the Dead===<br /> The conquest of the Cocytus System had resulted in the deaths, and disappearances, of many members, including Niemand 'Duda' Machweg, and the Knight Class Envoy, [[Zeron]]. As the order from the Grand Master for a general retreat was received aboard the Excidium from the Consul, Braecen, before he announced that the Clan would be pushed to their limits as they would reclaim the System that was theirs. The amusement in the tone of voice of the Krath to [[Thran Occasus|The High Admiral]] issuing orders to attack both Vong fleets, at this point Phoenix recognised the insanity in the Consul and decided to take over the [[Clan]]. Upon Phoenix's announcement to Scholae Palatinae, he also reopened [[House Dorimad Sol]] with [[Koskian 'Psyko' d'Tana]] as Quaestor. <br /> <br /> Despite Braecen's removal from Consul, between him, [[Thran Occasus|Thran]] and Natth a'Niel, the preparations of Scholae Palatinae's forces began aboard the Excidium, as the ship neared the system. The plan marked ''Operation Thunder Foot'' included pulling the majority of the fleet past the first Vong vessel before setting off for the second fleet. There were two platoons under Braecen's command that boarded the world ships, placing warheads that were then linked to a dead man's switch. <br /> <br /> Two of the three Battleteams of [[House Caliburnus|Caliburnus]], [[Souls of Darkness]] and [[Nightshade Squadron]], had been called to assist their recently appointed [[Quaestor]], [[Rasilvenaira StormRaven]], in an attack on [[Dynasty Station]], in order to reclaim it for House Caliburnus. Despite the Vong's loathing of technology, they had seemingly managed to take note of the strategic importance of the Space Station. <br /> <br /> ===Rescue at the Shrine===<br /> A small team of Dark Jedi went on a hunt to find three unnamed members who had been captured, and were being held, at the Shrine on [[Judecca]]. The Shrine had reportedly been cleansed according to Vong standards, as fauna and flora that had never been seen before in the galaxy now roamed free around the Shrine, and pockets of Vong were said to be stranded on the planet. The reports from the three unnamed members, suddenly stopped after a few days of reporting difficulties, at which point orders were issued by the Grand Marshall that the members were to be brought back, and the Shrine secured.<br /> <br /> After three kilometres of nothing being found, the team were found by four Vong, forcing them into battle, with the victory of the Palatinaes as the outcome, though the final Vong was killed by Daniel Stephens's lightsaber in an attack to the groin in a stroke of luck. On the last leg of the mission, signs became more and more overt about the Vong inhabitation due to appearances of a recent battle, some of the most obvious things being laser scores on the ground, razor bugs in trees, and the final thing that caught the group's attention was a large pool of greenish-black blood.<br /> <br /> Upon approach to the Shrine, the three missing members were spied upon tied to a tree, with three Vongs guarding them, and each taking their turn in beating the Jedi. The appearance of the situation was that the captured Dark Jedi had taken out a few Vong before their capture. The Vong were shot from the trees, all three instantly dying at the base of the tree as the members were released from the tree and watered and fed before being returned to base.<br /> <br /> ===Attack on Dynasty Station===<br /> One part of Operation Dragon Claw. The attack was at first set to be on the moon of [[Ptolomea|Alberigo Outpost]], though this was changed shortly before the attack was to commence to the Dynasty Station, upon review that it would provide a more strategic placing for CSP. Carried out on the Quaestor's orders, Souls of Darkness and Nightmare Brigade went in for an attack on the station assisted by the 4th Legion. The TIE/DS and assault ships lead the fighters to the Space Station whilst the Quaestor and Aedile stayed back on the ''[[Valkyrie]]'', and waited until the reports came through that it was clear to land.<br /> <br /> After several hours of battle, one of the ports were cleared for the landing of the ''Valkyrie''. Upon unloading with extra support, the last few pockets of Vong on the Space Station were wiped out within a few days and Dynasty was secured back into Caliburnus's hands.<br /> <br /> ===The Valley of Silence===<br /> Another part of Operation Dragon Claw. The Valley of Silence protects the House from a full Frontal round attack, and held several gun emplacements with the idea that it would stop it from falling into enemy hands. However, the Vong had taken hold of these gun emplacements. Using 4 companies that were named Alpha Coy, under Adam Anderson, Bravo, under [[Timbal]], Charlie, under [[Impetus]] and Delta under Natth a'Niel, the Vong were attacked once all companies were in place.<br /> <br /> The attack however, was of no surprise to the Vong, especially since the companies were all in view. The Vong had also learnt of the way that the Dark Jedi fought, thus making it to achieve the two objectives made it harder on those fighting. Once the Vong had been pushed into the centre of a horseshoe in the valley, the order to set off air-blasts was given. Many of the Dark Jedi that were amongst the command troops had dropped further and further back away from the main fighting, and were heading back towards the command station when it was detonated. Many members were lost when the ground gave way.<br /> <br /> ===Vongforming===<br /> The Sanyassan Race, which were considered to be Vongforming in that another race had been conquered and converted by the Vong, had been attacked at the Shrine and defeated. On the shuttle to the Base, the plans were explained for the next attack on the Vong Terraforming Station after regrouping with the 9th Legion, 303 Infantry Division.<br /> <br /> At first, a section of the team in a group of four that were sent out only encountered one Vong, which soon grew to four, as their fight attracted the unwanted attention of these humanoids. As soon as another group came to their aid, the four Vong fell swiftly, leaving the path clear to enter the Terraforming Station.<br /> <br /> From the centre outwards, the path was direct to take the Station, though it was frequently interrupted by fights with the Vong. Once they had retaken the Station, and released the few prisoners that they had found, and saw the effects of the start of the Vong forming process that was being inflicted by the Vong. The team of sixteen had been worn down to eleven, and the Station was now under control.<br /> <br /> ===The Abandoned Temple===<br /> Braecen lead a group, Delta to the abandoned temple under the order of Natth a'Niel and Thran Occasus, that the Vong had set themselves up inside there, in a hope to unlock the secrets held inside to use for their own gain. On the way, the ship followed a space battle and destroyed two of the ships in a bomb raid; however this cost around 70 men of the 120 strong group.<br /> <br /> Once landing on Ohmen, the group soon came in contact with the Vong. Whilst fighting, a Yuuzhan Vong charged with his aim for the Krath who appeared to have no idea about it, Fenix shot the Vong down in three blaster shots. As soon as the conflict was finished, Braecen delved into the Temple and sort out a familiar Force user that he had sensed whilst fighting.<br /> <br /> Once the Pontifex had located the user, he was faced with a prone form of Arania Lawakiro Palpatine, who had disappeared at the end of the Sixth Great Jedi War. The Dark Jedi Master had been altered by a Shaper, and Braecen brought Arania back onto the ship to return with to Phoenix.<br /> <br /> ===Cleansing the Blood Forest===<br /> The small and selected team of Dark Jedi that composed of the [[Souls of Darkness]], with [[Erianna &quot;Rayne&quot; Victae]], [[Yzarc Rellik Kaeth]] and [[Yeldarb Vohokou]], their mission that had been laid out in front of them by the Quaestor was to capture a shaper, whilst ensuring the Vong did not get past the Blood Forest.<br /> <br /> As night fell and the team of twelve had split into two groups, each waiting to enter the Vong base, and armed with the plan of one group to distract as the other planted charges and captured the Shaper. There were around a dozen warriors at the base, which spotted one group sooner then expected and a sudden battle broke out.<br /> <br /> Once the battle was over, Malaki was left to cover the entrance in a sniper position, as the Aedile left to fetch the transport, and the remained of the group entered the compound. Three members were then instructed to obliterate the place, as the others departed in search of the Shaper.<br /> <br /> Though capturing the Shaper resulted in injuries across the quartet that had gone in search of him, they overpowered him and dragged him out of the compound.<br /> <br /> ===The Temple of Rakata===<br /> The Vong had infiltrated the Temple, where many of Acclivis Draco's house artefacts were stored. There is also a source of great power located in the area which is of great importance to the House. Quickly unloading from the ships, the Dark Jedi and the Forces soon broke into the temple through two of the entrances. The Shamed ones and Chazrachs were soon slaughtered due to lack of armour, and lack of warning that they had received. The first group of warriors did not fare any better against the Forces, as the Acclivis Draco members knew the corridors and terrain of the temple much better then their assailants.<br /> <br /> Once they had entered into the Main Chamber, the Warriors took longer to kill then the previous group, but the Forces soon overpowered the Vong as the floor became slippy with black blood. Once the Vong were defeated there, the small group of Dark Jedi gathered on a keystone in the centre, before Cuchulain tapped into the centre, and the keystone sunk into the vault below the Main Chamber. It was thought that the Vong had forced their way in due to the reaction of the Pontifex.<br /> <br /> No Vong were found until the Jedi entered the Burial Chamber. Around twenty warriors surrounded two sarcophagi, and a female Vong Shaper. A vicious onslaught occurred, taking out all but two of the Vong, and three of the Dark Jedi. The ampistaff of the Shaper took out another Jedi, leaving the Quaestor and Aedile to fight her. A skirmish between [[RevengeX Palpatine|RevengeX]] and the Shaper ensued, which ended in [[Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine|Cooch]] pulling a tentacle that was attached to the nerves and hitting her across the back of the head with his Hurley Stick.<br /> <br /> ===The Vong Base on Caina===<br /> Forces from the House of the Rising Sun were soon able to locate the leader of the Vong forces on Caina. The Shaper had plans of using the vast minerals and almost limitless supply of water on Caina to create a new fleet capable of conquering the Republic and Brotherhood alike. While fierce battles raged on between the dwindling forces of the renewed house and the Vong, Quaestor Koskian D'tana recruited a single Dark Knight who had already proven himself against the invaders many times. <br /> <br /> It was with the help of [[Prajna Berkana]] that the two infiltrated the Shaper's base, under the cover of fog created by melting ice. Once inside, the Obelisks surprised many Yuuzhan Vong Warriors with Force-enhanced speed and stealth. Finally they confronted the Shaper and several body guards. As Psyko was wounded, Prajna was empowered by loyalty and fear, destroying the remaining troopers near by and capturing the Vong leader. <br /> <br /> Upon returning to the base, integration of the Shaper occurred, though the Vong refused to co-operate and insisted on speaking to the Grand Master. The Dark Jedi Knight persisted with threats of death that did nothing to help, since it would only honor their gods. The Shaper was soon transported to where the Consul wanted him.<br /> <br /> ===Et tu Brutus=== <br /> The clan was preparing for the impending attack from the Vong, with the Jedi being prepared should the fighters fail on their attack. The Forces were gathered around the comlinks as news came through on the fighter's attack, though most of the fighters were lost, only one of the four Vong ships survived.<br /> <br /> Once on [[Judecca|Brutus]], the Vong raged forward, knowing that it would be honourable to die in battle for their gods. The combat was heavy on the Forces, as the floor became thick with different colours of blood from those who had fallen. Once the Vong had all been slain, only a few members of Scholae Palatinae remained, looking dazed before making their way back through the oozing mess of bodies.<br /> <br /> ===Search and Destroy===<br /> Commander Ail'en Sommetra was in charge of the ship, when the order was given by Braecen to chase the remains of the Yuuzhan Vong ships. Though she had shared her concerns with the condition of the ''[[Excidium]]'' to Braecen and Natth a'Niel, though both had dismissed her and told her to do the best that she was able to. The insanity of the former Consul meant the fleet was following the Vong with a reckless abandon. The order was given to deploy fighters when enemy coralskippers were found coming in, the ''[[Ogmio's Whip]]'' was weakened by it. The coralskippers that had gotten past Thran's fighter attack ships, headed for the ''Excidium''. The ''[[M/CRV Victory|Victory]]'' was destroyed shortly before the ''[[YCHT Emperor's Will|Will]]'' arrived, which looked half-wrecked. Once all the fighters had docked, the fleet leapt into hyper drive to avoid further attack and destruction.<br /> <br /> Upon arrival back into the Clan Space, assistance from the ''[[STRKC Dark Predator|Predator]]'', ''[[M/CRV Palpatine's Hammer|Hammer]]'' and ''[[M/STRKC Valkyrie|Valkyrie]]'' was requested. However, the Vong ships had followed the remaindered of the fleet back. The ''Valkyrie'' and ''Hammer'' turned on the Yuuzhan Vong fleet, as the ''Predator'' enclosed on the gathering. Within minutes, the ''Valkyrie'' was destroyed through a snap to the spine, and shortly afterwards the ''Hammer'' was also gone, with the ''Predator'' severely weakened. As the escape pods were deployed from both the ''Predator'' and the ''Excidium'', the Vong fleets moved in closer, and aimed for their targets, taking both the ships out.<br /> <br /> == Results ==<br /> === House Standings ===<br /> # [[House Acclivis Draco]]: 1289 points<br /> # [[House Caliburnus]]: 1279 points<br /> # [[House Dorimad Sol]]: 1193 points<br /> <br /> === Champions ===<br /> Named the First, Second, and Third Redeemers of the Cocytus System, respectively, these three individuals were the spearheads in driving the Vong away from the System.<br /> <br /> # [[Braecen Kaeth]]: 244 points<br /> # [[RevengeX Palpatine]]: 214 points<br /> # [[Prajna Berkana]]: 202 points<br /> <br /> [[Category: Events]][[Category: Clan Scholae Palatinae]]</div>

However, this changed with the appointment of a Sergeant whose name has been lost with the passing of history. It was said that his voice was so loud that it could be heard, yelling orders, above the sounds of battle. This earned him the nickname of &quot;Banshee&quot;, and ever since then, the Brigade was to be called '''&quot;Banshee’s Brigade&quot;'''. However, after the Sergeant's death, the name stuck with the Brigade and they decided to keep it, but had it styled to fit with their latest roster change - simply becoming '''Banshee Brigade'''. The fact that this name has stuck has led some to believe that it is in honor of their long-fallen comrade.<br /> <br /> === Serving House Caliburnus ===<br /> <br /> With Clan Scholae Palatinae dissolved, one house stood up for its independence. Rather than being absorbed by another clan, [[House Caliburnus]] petitioned the Dark council to allow the unthinkable; a house independent of the Clan system. Banshee Brigade joined the cause and, along with two other battle teams (Ebon Cloak and Nightshade), refused to waiver. The Brigade was strong in this time and was instrumental in both winning the Independence of [[House Caliburnus]], but also in eventually helping to reform [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]] under Grand Master [[Justinian Khyron]]. <br /> <br /> [[Image:BansheeBrigade.png|thumb|left|120px|Rallying banner used by the brigade during Reclamation]]<br /> <br /> ==== Moving On: Dorimad Sol ====<br /> <br /> Under the restructured Clan, Banshee Brigade was added to a new House, [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]]. It formed the backbone the House leading its members into battle and refusing to give one meter to it foes. Soon their battle cry was heard throughout the Clan, ''&quot;Banshee Brigade, First to fight, last to retreat!&quot;'' Trying times were ahead for the entire Brotherhood and the shattering of Banshee Brigade was fast approaching.<br /> <br /> === Reclamation ===<br /> <br /> It was decided after the retreat from the Antei system to retake the Clan home system. House Dorimad Sol was tasked with retaking Caina the home world of House Dorimad Sol. It was during this time the Banshee Brigade gained both its grandest victory and it’s worst defeat.<br /> <br /> The Brigade, led by [[Daniel Stephens]], took the lead in the assault to retake Caina from the Vong Invaders. It was a long and hard fight and the Vong were eventually beaten back. The Brigade had lead the House in defeating the Vong but the losses were tremendous. Due to the injuries sustained Daniel Stephens was forced to take an extended medical leave eventually taking a position elsewhere. The Brigade remained empty for a time.<br /> <br /> <br /> == Current Assignment ==<br /> <br /> The assignment for Banshee Brigade now lies in providing a defense for the headquarters of [[House Dorimad Sol]] and to police the grounds. They have had extensive experience with quelling riots, providing escorts to important officials, and have even helped with space operations. In the rare instance that they have to investigate something on the planet, they can do so with great speed and accuracy. <br /> <br /> <br /> In the event of an offensive attack they act as a true Battle Team, splitting into smaller fire teams to eliminate the enemy forces. In the event that House Dorimad Sol takes the offensive then the Team is usually tasked with performing assassinations, infiltrating enemy bases, providing escorts for medical personnel and have even been known to break into separate smaller teams and perform combinations of the above tasks. Usually the Brigade is charged with assassinations and infiltration but can perform all of the above<br /> <br /> == Banshee's Armory ==<br /> <br /> === Sash of the Banshee ===<br /> <br /> [[Image:BBsash.gif|left|thumb|75px|Banshee Brigade Sash]] A symbol of membership in Banshee Brigade, the Sash is awarded to all members upon their arrival at [[Arx Ondorii]]. Members are required to wear the sash to all formal events including awards ceremonies. When sent into battle the member may choose not to wear the sash but most refuse to leave it behind. Made of simple cloth the sash has no outward effects on the wearer. It does however instill a deep sense of Pride for the honor of being in the Banshee Brigade and serving [[House Dorimad Sol]].<br /> <br /> === Sword of the Banshee ===<br /> <br /> Another symbol of membership in the Brigade is the Sword of the Banshee. The blade is a short katana, made from the finest steels, with the motto ''First to Fight, Last to Retreat'', laser-etched onto the blade in Aurebesh. The hilt is simple, wrapped in blue cloth to show tribute to the Brigade's colors. As with the Sash, members are required to wear this weapon at all formal ceremonies and is often carried in battle due to its effectiveness.<br /> <br /> === Armor ===<br /> <br /> Based on Phase I ARC Trooper armor, this armor is bone white and made up of twenty armor-plates attached to a vacc-sealed black bodyglove. The plates are light but extremely protective and is painted with blue markings on the chest, arms, legs, gloves, and boots.

His stories are renowned. I would guess that is why you seek of him from myself. <br /> <br /> ===Cerean Life===<br /> Life on Cerean is what most Galatians would consider archaic at best. Daily life goes without most electronic technology that revolutionizes life. Only in the colonial space stations, mostly housing non-Cereans, does the high-tech life around the system show face. This comes from years of bloodshed culminating during the Battle of Cerea during the Clone Wars. Since, Cerea has restructured society to isolate themselves from trifles of galactic politics. Only a handful of rare, talented Cereans would ever leave the planet anyway. Some would go for advances in education, which would then be shared at home and integrated in the universities on the planet. <br /> <br /> ===Beginnings===<br /> PJ, as he is often nicknamed by members of the Brotherhood, comes from Ta-Gal, a small city far removed from even the others in Cerean society.

Now she acts as the town's representative to the Council of Elders. This royal lineage made Prajna a local celebrity from birth. He has told me to great lengths of some of his devilish deed he would get away with, always because of his mother. One story he loves to retell talks of his dark beginnings where he would dip teachers' tools in mud, or swipe food from the elder women of town. He was quite a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Daranu Daranu] if you ask me.<br /> <br /> He is also boasted of his records set for speed among his people. As a young boy he raced the older sons and daughters of the town who would next leave for Tecave City and the higher education universities there. In the race, though still small and under-developed physically, he won by minutes to even the promising and energetic teens. Another story is of Prajna stealthily snaring a baby aryx from under her mother's roost. He raised the animal, and later used her frequently to travel about before finally leaving the planet.<br /> <br /> ===Education===<br /> By his his eleventh birthday, Prajna had far outgrown the small town. Prajna's father took him to Tecave City the day after a large farewell and birthday party. However, many of the residence were celebrating a liberation from the increasingly evil pranks and thefts the child was committing. The Queen knew he was specially skilled, however, with speed and cunning that was not just natural. He just needed discipline and a clean outlet for his energy. This is why his father took Prajna to meet Lady Berkana, Guardian of Cerea sine the Jedi Purge.<br /> <br /> Lady Berkana was not a Jedi, or even very Force Sensitive. However, she had trained under Ki-Adi Mundi and in fact been a mistress of his when she was young. Still, she was a cunning warrior, even as the signs of aging finally caught up to her. As Guardian, the Mistress lived in a modest palace surrounded by a hundred acres of gardens, all enclosed from the outside world of the city. For three years, Prajna did nothing by study. He would read piles of books, learning of history, art and culture. It was the warfare, though, that really attracted and inspired him to stay awake for days on end. Berkana brought him modern technologies, immersing him in their familiarity that he would surely need if he was to one day replace her when she retired. Prajna would especially search out details of battle tactics, studying everything from ancient Jedi basics to the extreme efficiency of the empire. <br /> <br /> He was required to work hard labor in the gardens daily. This allowed him to properly grow into the body that now was showing signs of large growth, even for a Cerean. When he peaked height over his master at fourteen, it was time for her to begin to teach him more than just combat from books. Besides, he had read everything she could acquire already. Lady Berkana was said to be a master martial artist, skilled in Steal Hands and Shadow Fist. She had been taught by actual Echani when serving her Jedi idol. Even a special crab-like form had been shown to her. It was this unique grappling style that intrigued PJ the most, but it was this she knew the least and so held back.<br /> <br /> She trained him in several unarmed combat styles, and also the Cerean legendary Shyarn-Ado. Prajna would always return bruised and bloody, but allowed him to learn first aid hands on. This is also when Prajna's master discovered his extraordinary ability of recovery. She had only seen it once before, but her idol and secret love was long dead. When Prajna was nearing his sixth year under the training of his master, she sat him down after a particularly successful bout in which Lady Berkana was more beaten than the younger Cerean. This is when she told him of what she knew of the Force. She also pronounced his training complete and banished him from the gardens.<br /> <br /> Prajna became infuriated, to his Master's great surprise. They fought again, and Lady Berkana held nothing back, whooping the angry youth close to death before he finally withdrew.<br /> <br /> ===Galactic Space===<br /> Prajna once laughed on how big he found the galaxy to be after six years contained in the gardens of the Guardian of Cerea. He traveled to the city-planet of Coruscant, the dessert-planet Tatooine, and the ocean-planet Mon Calamari. each was something far different from the plains, mountains, and jungles of his planet. <br /> <br /> It was then that Prajna discovered cantinas. They had exotic women who could do things his binary brains had never even dreamed of. They had potent alcohol that far exceeded the mild drinks he had tasted in his secret excursions through the city around his garden prison. Mostly though, Prajna would go to cantinas for fighting. He found he loved to fight. He was larger than the weirdly shaped humans with their shallow, pointless skulls. His training also let him viciously drop even groups of gangs who might try to jump him after too much drinking or a flirtatious gaze at one of their women. A number of cantinas added &quot;Cereans&quot; next to robots and other miscreants not allowed to enter. He really enjoyed causing too much trouble. <br /> <br /> It was after one brawl Prajna left four street thugs unconscious that he was approached by a hooded figure with yellow eyes. He had his first job. Prajna now was an assassin for hire. After his first kill, the mad Cerean lusted for more. He killed dozens of people, a few not even for money. However, his eighteenth birthday sobered him up enough to remember his Master, and her last discussion with him. The Force whispered to him, and Prajna disappeared to look for a Jedi.<br /> <br /> He decided to return home, after more than a year of his hardening lifestyle. He had already acquired a Theta-class T-2c shuttle, refurbished after lifting it from one of his targets. Upon first entering Cerea, he ignored the communications tower, easily vaped two pilots on patrol duty, and then maneuvered into the atmosphere. Instantly, he felt chills: he was home.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a raid to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contact with the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> Prajna has two apprentices, Bal Commas and [[Tollo]].<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> Current Aedile of the greatest House to ever be a part of Clan Scholae Palatinae and the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still coming back after being around for over four years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclaimer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> Prajna worked with two Consuls Braecen and Phoenix to host the Independence Games in 2008.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna (pronounced Prahj-nuh) comes from Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

He is currently in [[House Dorimad Sol]] of [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]] and the assassin for the [[Blades of Chaos]]. When not killing Jedi, Tollo likes to make holovids and hopes to be able to document the [[Dark Brotherhood|Dark Brotherhood’s]] rise to power.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> ===The Young Years 5 ABY - 21 ABY===<br /> <br /> Tollo was born Lucien Tollus Hejaran II in 5 ABY on the moon of Pella in the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Tapani_Sector Tapani Sector]. His father, [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Lucian_Hejaran Baron Lucien Hejaran I], was murdered after discovering his cousin was corrupted by the Dark Side. The details of his father’s death were kept from both him and the rest of Pella. He was raised in nobility, living in his family home, Hejaran Castle. He took an early interest in the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Saber_rake saber rakes], Tapani noble youths that dueled with [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Lightfoil lightfoils]. After obtaining a lightfoil of his own, he soon joined the ranks of the saber rakes. He was never trained in dueling but found that he was naturally faster and more agile than the others. Even after lightfoils were banned because of the rise of young nobles needing prosthetics, he continued to be part of this now secret group. He modified his lightfoil to have a secret activation button so he could claim it was just a prop.<br /> <br /> ===A Pirate's Life For Me 21 ABY - 23 ABY===<br /> <br /> At age sixteen, he discovered information that his father may have been murdered. When he confronted his mother about this, she told him everything. Furious that he had grown up believing a lie, he ran away and bought his way on to a transport leaving Pella. The ship was attacked by pirates just after leaving the system. The pirate captain found nothing aboard the vessel interesting so he ordered it, and its passengers, destroyed. Tollo stepped forward and challenged the captain to a duel. The deal was set; if the captain wins, he continues as planned, if Tollo wins, they will be set free. Tollo activated his lightfoil and quickly had the captain on the ground. Instead of killing him, he offered him another deal; allow him to join the crew. The captain agreed and Tollo began his life as a pirate. <br /> <br /> <br /> He spent the next 2 years raiding ships and honing his sword skills. Soon after he turned eighteen, the pirates were captured by the new republic. There was a Jedi aboard the ship that captured them and he instantly sensed the Force in the boy. Jedi Master Doran Vaan request to take charge of the boy was granted and Tollo went with him to the academy. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===A Jedi Is Broken 23 ABY - 28 ABY===<br /> <br /> [[image:Tollopadawan.jpg|thumb|left|100px|Padawan Tollo with Lightfoil]]Tollo was on a constant quest for knowledge and spent most of his time in the archives. He could never seem to leave a question unanswered. There he met another young padawan, Ashalie. She was from an exotic aquatic world near the outer rim. He had never seen a female so beautiful in his life. The two of them fell in love and swore to marry when they became Jedi. Shortly after, Master Vaan was given an assignment to attend a peace treaty signing between two planets and was to take Tollo to observe.<br /> <br /> <br /> A battle erupted during the signing. Master Vaan quickly moved to defend his untrained padawan. As the Jedi was deflecting bolt after bolt from blasters, one hit his hand and sent his lightsaber flying. Tollo saw the saber coming at him and tried to dodge it. Before the blade could deactivate, it glanced the side of Tollo’s face. Doran thought he just witnessed his apprentice’s death and was distracted long enough to be shot in the back. <br /> <br /> <br /> Tollo awoke to find his master dead and the battle had moved elsewhere. Afraid someone would come to finish him off; he made a break for the planet’s vast wilderness. There he found a stream to clean his wound. Because he had not seen the extent of the damage to his face, he was overcome with horror at what he saw. The flesh was missing from his face on the left side, there was just skull. When he eventually recovered, he began to hunt for food. He realized he was going to need to cover this open area on his face with something so he collected the hide from his previous meals and fashioned a mask. <br /> <br /> <br /> After a month of seclusion in the wild, he was overcome by emotion. The weight of his master’s death was enormous but it paled in comparison to the thought that Ashalie could never love the mangled monster he had became. He felt a call through the Force. Something wanted him to venture out and find it. He fought the urge but it was relentless. Finally he walked out of the wildness and began his trek to answer the call. In no time, he found himself on a transport bound for the Shadow Academy.<br /> <br /> <br /> ===A New Master 28 ABY-Present===<br /> [[image:ProvostofFerocity1.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Tollo: Provost of Ferocity]]<br /> Tollo made a name for himself in the Brotherhood through the [[Shadow Academy]] by earning a [[Dark Maven]] in History. He took course after course, diving into the Sith history and learning all he could. He was gaining notice within his house too. Due to his skills with a blade, Tollo was made a Tyro Assassin for the [[Blades of Chaos]] Battle Team and named the Provost of Ferocity. As a provost, he was awarded the Pauldron of [[House Dorimad Sol]] and the Night Bringer. It was around this same time that [[Aedile]] [[Prajna Berkana]] took an interest in the young [[Krath]].

As Guardian, the Mistress lived in a modest palace surrounded by a hundred acres of gardens, all enclosed from the outside world of the city. For three years, Prajna did nothing by study. He would read piles of books, learning of history, art and culture. It was the warfare, though, that really attracted and inspired him to stay awake for days on end. Berkana brought him modern technologies, immersing him in their familiarity that he would surely need if he was to one day replace her when she retired. Prajna would especially search out details of battle tactics, studying everything from ancient Jedi basics to the extreme efficiency of the empire. <br /> <br /> He was required to work hard labor in the gardens daily. This allowed him to properly grow into the body that now was showing signs of large growth, even for a Cerean. When he peaked height over his master at fourteen, it was time for her to begin to teach him more than just combat from books. Besides, he had read everything she could acquire already. Lady Berkana was said to be a master martial artist, skilled in Steal Hands and Shadow Fist. She had been taught by actual Echani when serving her Jedi idol. Even a special crab-like form had been shown to her. It was this unique grappling style that intrigued PJ the most, but it was this she knew the least and so held back.<br /> <br /> She trained him in several unarmed combat styles, and also the Cerean legendary Shyarn-Ado. Prajna would always return bruised and bloody, but allowed him to learn first aid hands on. This is also when Prajna's master discovered his extraordinary ability of recovery. She had only seen it once before, but her idol and secret love was long dead. When Prajna was nearing his sixth year under the training of his master, she sat him down after a particularly successful bout in which Lady Berkana was more beaten than the younger Cerean. This is when she told him of what she knew of the Force. She also pronounced his training complete and banished him from the gardens.<br /> <br /> Prajna became infuriated, to his Master's great surprise. They fought again, and Lady Berkana held nothing back, whooping the angry youth close to death before he finally withdrew.<br /> <br /> ===Galactic Space===<br /> Prajna once laughed on how big he found the galaxy to be after six years contained in the gardens of the Guardian of Cerea. He traveled to the city-planet of Coruscant, the dessert-planet Tatooine, and the ocean-planet Mon Calamari. each was something far different from the plains, mountains, and jungles of his planet. <br /> <br /> It was then that Prajna discovered cantinas. They had exotic women who could do things his binary brains had never even dreamed of. They had potent alcohol that far exceeded the mild drinks he had tasted in his secret excursions through the city around his garden prison. Mostly though, Prajna would go to cantinas for fighting. He found he loved to fight. He was larger than the weirdly shaped humans with their shallow, pointless skulls. His training also let him viciously drop even groups of gangs who might try to jump him after too much drinking or a flirtatious gaze at one of their women. A number of cantinas added &quot;Cereans&quot; next to robots and other miscreants not allowed to enter. He really enjoyed causing too much trouble. <br /> <br /> It was after one brawl Prajna left four street thugs unconscious that he was approached by a hooded figure with yellow eyes. He had his first job. Prajna now was an assassin for hire. After his first kill, the mad Cerean lusted for more. He killed dozens of people, a few not even for money. However, his eighteenth birthday sobered him up enough to remember his Master, and her last discussion with him. The Force whispered to him, and Prajna disappeared to look for a Jedi.<br /> <br /> He decided to return home, after more than a year of his hardening lifestyle. He had already acquired a Theta-class T-2c shuttle, refurbished after lifting it from one of his targets. Upon first entering Cerea, he ignored the communications tower, easily vaped two pilots on patrol duty, and then maneuvered into the atmosphere. Instantly, he felt chills: he was home.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a raid to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> Prajna has two apprentices, Bal Commas and [[Tollo]].<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> Current Aedile of the greatest House to ever be a part of Clan Scholae Palatinae and the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still coming back after being around for over four years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> Prajna worked with two Consuls Braecen and Phoenix to host the Independence Games in 2008.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

His father, Baron Lucien Hejaran I, was murdered after discovering his cousin was corrupted by the Dark Side. The details of his father’s death were kept from both him and the rest of Pella. He was raised in nobility, living in his family home, Hejaran Castle. He took an early interest in the saber rakes, Tapani noble youths that dueled with lightfoils. After obtaining a lightfoil of his own, he soon joined the ranks of the saber rakes. He was never trained in dueling but found that he was naturally faster and more agile than the others. Even after lightfoils were banned because of the rise of young nobles needing prosthetics, he continued to be part of this now secret group. He modified his lightfoil to have a secret activation button so he could just claim it was just a prop. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===A Pirate's Life For Me 19 ABY - 21 ABY===<br /> <br /> At age sixteen, he discovered information that his father may have been murdered. When he confronted his mother about this, she told him everything. Furious that he had grown up believing a lie, he ran away and bought his way on to a transport leaving Pella. The ship was attacked by pirates just after leaving the system. The pirate captain found nothing aboard the vessel interesting so he ordered it, and its passengers, destroyed. Tollo stepped forward and challenged the captain to a duel. The deal was set; if the captain wins, he continues as planned, if Tollo wins, they will be set free. Tollo activated his lightfoil and quickly had the captain on the ground. Instead of killing him, he offered him another deal; allow him to join the crew. The captain agreed and Tollo began his life as a pirate. <br /> <br /> <br /> He spent the next 2 years raiding ships and honing his sword skills. Soon after he turned eighteen, the pirates were captured by the new republic. There was a Jedi aboard the ship that captured them and he instantly sensed the Force in the boy. Jedi Master Doran Vaan request to take charge of the boy was granted and Tollo went with him to the academy. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===A Jedi Is Broken 21 ABY - Present===<br /> <br /> [[image:Tollopadawan.jpg|thumb|left|100px]]Tollo was on a constant quest for knowledge and spent most of his time in the archives. He could never seem to leave a question unanswered. There he met another young padawan, Asholie. She was from an exotic aquatic world near the outer rim. He had never seen a female so beautiful in his life. The two of them fell in love and swore to marry when they became Jedi. Master Vaan was given an assignment to attend a peace treaty signing between two planets.<br /> <br /> <br /> A battle erupted during the signing. Master Vaan quickly moved to defend his untrained padawan. As the Jedi was deflecting bolt after bolt from blasters, one hit his hand and sent his lightsaber flying. Tollo saw the saber coming at him and tried to dodge it. Before the blade could deactivate, it glanced the side of Tollo’s face. Doran thought he just witnessed his apprentice’s death and was distracted long enough to be shot in the back. <br /> <br /> <br /> Tollo awoke to find his master dead and the battle had moved elsewhere. Afraid someone would come to finish him off; he made a break for the planet’s vast wilderness. There he found a stream to clean his wound. Because he had not seen the extent of the damage to his face, he was overcome with horror at what he saw. The flesh was missing from his face on the left side, there was just skull. When he eventually recovered, he began to hunt for food. He realized he was going to need to cover this open area on his face with something so he collected the hide from his previous meals and fashioned a mask. <br /> <br /> <br /> After a month of seclusion in the wild, he was overcome by emotion. The weight of his master’s death was enormous but it paled in comparison to the thought that Asholie could never love the mangled monster he had became. He felt a call through the Force. Something wanted him to venture out and find it. He fought the urge but it was relentless. Finally he walked out of the wildness and began his trek to answer the call. In no time, he found himself on a transport bound for the Shadow Academy.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> No positions held so far.<br /> <br /> === Awards ===<br /> Scroll of Indoctrination<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Tollo is Latin for destroy.<br /> <br /> [[Category: DJB Characters]]<br /> [[Category:Clan Scholae Palatinae]]</div>

Ptolomea’s creation bred an empty world of Ice and rock. As the geological clock tick through the eons, Ptolomea saw a burst of life from the frozen rocky soil. By chance, the world saw global temperatures rise as a faithful satellite slowly melted the surface below. Oceans grew and the atmospheric blanket settled over the sphere. In a matter of time, the barren terrain sprung forth with plant-life. Dense jungles dug deep into the heart of the landscape, hiding ages upon ages of geological history. <br /> <br /> Around the age of the expanding Infinite Empire, Ptolomea came to be settled by humans or human-like beings. In the many millennia that followed, societies rose and fell on the harsh jungle world. Empires controlled vast parcels of land and built many statues, temples, and other grand works. Towers and Pyramids, Sciences and Mathematics, Astronomy and Language soon sprung up out of the now native beings. Tribal Chieftains evoked the power of their knowledge and reared powerful nations. <br /> <br /> Basic society among the Neolithic Empires was focused around the direct calculation of one astrological moment, the total alignment of Ptolomea and her two moons with their solar body. This moment, unified the classical cultures in terror. Priests of nearly every cult like polytheistic religions of the time foretold of this day as the destruction of the planet Ptolomea and the end of all life. Generally regarded as superstition, the modern population of Ptolomea regards the customs and ideas of the natives as little more than primitive beliefs.<br /> <br /> Archaeological evidence shows that at some point prior to modern colonization visitors came to the planet and drastically changed the course of social development. In the span of several thousand years, Ptolomean natives changed structure from a geocentric view of the universe to embracing a complete structured idea of foreign organisms and life forms. In the wake of this shattering scientific revelation, Ptolomean culture which had been, until then, lead by the priesthood, fell into decay. <br /> <br /> With the crumbling of the loose Empires, Ptolomea fell back into a state of relatively feral nature. Tribal chieftains could no longer establish the base of control they had managed in the past and accordingly the social group size regressed into small hordes of family groups. This informational regress is often paired with the mysterious disappearance of the lightsaber Caliburnus from Sith records.<br /> <br /> After many untouched generations, the Planet Ptolomea once again saw change. A small cabal of Dark Jedi claimed the planet based on several sets of prophesies. In time, the Dark Jedi sought out the weapon Caliburnus which had come to settle on the Planet. Upon this discovery, the House was forever attached to the world which had served as the bastion for the weapon. In light of this, Clan Scholae Palatinae sought to protect the wealth and enigmas of the tropical orb.<br /> <br /> Due in part to its inaccessibility and rough terrain, Ptolomea never served as a functional place to base the military of the Clan. However, when the Yuuzhan Vong began their siege of the world many geographical features were changed substantially. This rough change and violent uprising left scars on the planet where the Vong had slashed though the jungles. When the world was spared, the damages done to the planet actually appeared to be beneficial in some respects. New holes in the terrain allowed for cities to spring up virtually overnight. Those holes filled with overwhelming number of refugees from the recent war. The planet, which had little or no economy prior to the invasion, had suddenly become a welcome retreat for those who were displaced. With such vast improvements, it seemed economical and wise to reap the benefits of the changes. The Clan and private corporations invested large amounts of money into the reborn Jungle world and quickly saw benefits. With a booming population, the Military might of the parent clan grew exponentially.<br /> <br /> With a bright future ahead, Ptolomea is sure to develop more rapidly than ever before.<br /> <br /> ==Planet Geography==<br /> <br /> ===Continents===<br /> <br /> '''Helia-''' By area, Helia is the larger of the two continents present on Ptolomea. Dominating the Southern Hemisphere, Helia is a mostly wild land. With a wide variance of geographical features, Helia’s basic terrain consists of Highlands and lowland jungle. Where two of the larger tectonic plates merge, great mountains protrude from the surface, bisecting continent along a massive ridgeline. This central ridge, known as the Sword’s Edge separates the Northern and Southern Coasts with nearly impassible terrain and runs nearly the entire length of the continent. Running from the Northeast Coast, the mountain range follows the Subduction Zone south towards the Polar Regions before turning sharply to the West, where it continues along the edge of the sinking subcontinent bisecting the Northern and Southern regions across the heart of the continent. With the smaller subcontinent subducting under the larger slice of land, a horseshoe shape developed in the range. At an astonishing 41,000 Kilometers long, this contiguous mountain range is certainly one great features of the Helian inland. Old and deep gorges cut through the area where mighty rivers have carved tracks. Dense forests spread across the entirety of the continent, undercut by rivers and roads. The Southern coast experiences cooler temperatures than the rest of the continent, as cool breezes whip off the seas. <br /> <br /> The shimmering jewel of Ptolomea, Almagast, is nestled into the cool Southern Gap. The “Ivory City” protects the beaches of the Southern Coast, welcoming all within in its warm walls. The city was originally erected before the Yuzhann Vong Invasion; however it didn’t bloom until the conflict had abated.<br /> <br /> '''Gaias-''' The Second of the Major Ptolomean Continents, Gaias is the more developed parcel of land. Ancient temples and towering cities lay near the coasts, sheltered from the heat of the jungle. This continent has the benefit of the thinner northern rainforests, making development significantly easier. With a similar inland terrain to the southern continent, Gaias appears much like its sister. Old Jungle and rough ground make travel through the heart of the land extremely difficult. In contrast, in the Northwest of the landmass, open areas scarred by the Vong invasion make travel and the ballooning of Cities much easier. The majority of Ptolomea’s residents live in this area, which is often referred to as The Cradle of Amlanca. The nutrient rich soil, relatively flat landscape, and considerable climate differences allowed for the dense settlement of this region. As a result two massive cities, Bronato and Masa Pluris, stare at each other across the area. Each City boasts a population over 2.5 million, bringing the total population in the Cradle to near 20 Million people. Average Temperatures on the Gaias main range 5 to 15 degrees cooler than the highland Jungles of Helia. <br /> <br /> ===Islands===<br /> <br /> '''Marynos-''' Marynos lies in the Southern Hemisphere, just off the Gaiasian coast. The smallest of a discontinuous series of Islands, Marynos has little room for expansion. Primarily a fishing society, the people of the island usually associate within themselves. Abundance of natural resources has prompted the island’s leaders to declare it an independent nation. Little if any benefit could be had from the isolated Island and the residents prefer it that way. A series of caves laces the island proper, making it a haven for adventurers, criminals, and other types of miscreants. <br /> <br /> '''Capurnicom-''' Capurnicom is a deserted island, inhabited only by wildlife. A dominant species of mammal rules the small land mass, as master foragers in the canopy and on the jungle floors. These rodent-like creatures are known for gathering nuts and berries from their arboreal homes. Idolized on the island, few venture into the strange jungles that build their habitat. Capurnicom is also well known for beautiful expanses of beach. This island is the second largest in the set of Islands.<br /> <br /> '''Cladis-''' The largest island in the set of independent islands, Cladis is one of the few fully explored areas of Ptolomea. A strange occurrence on the island once disrupted settlers and has been left mostly untouched by people. A folk myth tells of certain peculiarities and a strange sense of gloom on the island. The Island is unusually cool and so it shows a great difference from the rest of the Ptolomean Islands. Cool weather drastically changed the general tree type growing on the Island these oak-like deciduous trees. This chilly island holds a refreshing 70 degrees at average.<br /> <br /> '''Ygp-''' Known as the Teacher Island, Ypp is surrounded by the Tetralibros Islands. The peninsula riddled Island provides abundant sea life and provides great protection from harsh seas. Accordingly, it is an area frequented by many people. Seen as the island getaway, Ygp has seen significant interest from the public. In the wake of the Yuzhaan Vong Invasion, a former military installation has seen significant upgrade. Named Fort Arrow by the clan Scholae Palatinae, the Base is effectively a City. A complete Starport and a civil government define the cities importance for luring people. Average Temperatures mark this Island at a comfortably tropic 85 degrees. <br /> <br /> '''Scylica–''' Scylica is located at a midpoint in the ocean between Gaias and Helia and geologically shows traces of possibly having been a part of a land bridge between the continents at one point in the planet’s history. The terrain of the island is broken up between stretches of dense forest and cleared fields where the island’s residents work to farm livestock derived from a hardy native species of ungulate that has slowly been domesticated. The western half of the island is the more heavily populated with the city of Darkpointe keeping watch over the island. <br /> <br /> ===Island Chains===<br /> <br /> '''Tetralibros-''' Known as the Four Tomes, this Island chain embraces the coast of Ygp. Each smaller island is known only by its relation to the larger Island. Of the Chain, West Island is the largest. Called the Tome of Power, by local lore, West Island climbs from the seas on one side. Atop the magnificent cliffs, the city of Port Harbinger looks out onto the sea. The medium sized city remains flourishing in spite of its isolation. This island is said to contain traces of a hidden power that was known only to an ancient and now extinct society. South Island, called Tome of the Forgotten, is a mostly desolate Island that was ravished by the Yuzhaan Vong. East Island, associated with the Tome of Pestilence, teems with microbial life. Thick slimes and marshy terrain cause the abundant growth of disease and thus give the Island its name. Finally, the North Island is known as the Tome of Solace. Little distinguishes this island from the rest of Ptolomean climates. Warm waters keep the Island habitually warm and accordingly dense jungles fill it.<br /> <br /> '''Isles of Tartarus-''' Located southwest of Helia, this small group of three islands is actually seldom visited due to the ferocious and venomous nature of many species found only on these three islands. The three islands are named Styx, Phlegethon, and Lethe respectively. Only in recent months have the islands fallen under renewed interest as the Quaestor Rasilvenaira Kaeth StormRaven has encouraged study of the flora and fauna of the seemingly cursed islands to determine if any might hold some benefit to the House or Clan. <br /> <br /> ==Cities==<br /> <br /> '''Almagast-''' The Ivory City. Almagast is a beautiful display of functional building and elaborate architecture. As the functioning Capitol of Ptolomea, the city maintains a respectable disposition. In the decades prior to the Vong invasion, Almagast struggled to stay alive. However, after the war an influx of eager Refugees brought a spark to the city. In the span of less than a year, Almagast had functioning Industry, government, and social contracts. The city soon became recognized as a model for the Ptolomean City, standing tall in the face of adversity. <br /> <br /> The City proper is constructed of white stones and masonry, giving it an eerie Ivory tint in the periods of light on the planet. Arches and buttresses are common sight in the Architecture of the city, giving the city a strange coral colony feeling. Centralized in the town are the Government buildings, all bearing the strong Coat of Arms of the Clan Scholae Palatinae. The remainder of the city is built around this core, showing the importance of the Clan’s impact on the cities development. Approachable by sea alone, the mountainous jungles of the landscape protect it from assault. Along the glorious Mesantine Coast, brilliant white sands reciprocate the ivory tones in the city’s construction.<br /> <br /> Though not Ptolomea’s Largest City, Almagast displays the Travel brochure image of Ptolomea. Comfortable living is the aim of the city, at which it has excelled. When in global transit, people from Almagast are often seen as pretentious or snooty which is certainly a result of their lifestyle.<br /> <br /> '''Ft. Hammer-''' Nearly 50 kilometers outside of Almagast rests the muscled arm of the Armies of Clan. Ft. Hammer is a gigantic fortress, looming over the Ivory City. In the mountains above Almagast, Ft. Hammer boasts the majority of the House’s military might. As the home of all twelve of Clan Scholae Palatinae’s AT-AT’s and a large portion of the Clan’s ground vehicles, the Fortress does its name justice. <br /> <br /> Routine muster drills and a vast “Live Fire” range make this a dangerous place. Strictly off limits to civilians, the major buildings of this installation are military targets. As such, point defense systems protect the base. A large number of anti-aircraft and anti-ground force cannons litter the grounds. Centralized around a large mustering yard, The Fortress is home to 4,000 Enlisted Stormtroopers and an additional force of 10,000 Militiamen. The militia is a crucial component of the Defense Initiative for Ptolomea, making up the bulk of its infantry numbers. Under the authoritarian power of the Quaestor of House Caliburnus, Males of adult age must serve a term of at least two years in the Militia. This rite was instituted in the early hours of the invasion of Ptolomea.<br /> <br /> Trained in the jungles of Ptolomea, Militiamen are notoriously gruff. This attitude adds to the general air over the Fortress. The place is one for war, and everyone there knows it. Attitudes run high and fights start easily. <br /> <br /> '''Bronato-''' Bronato is the largest city on Ptolomea. Nestled into the fertile valley called the Cradle of Amlanca, Bronato is full of slummy undercities and has a rustic feeling about it. In an attempt to follow in the footsteps of Almagast, the founders of Bronato squandered most of the available money. This left the city in dire need of organization. Without the presence of a nearby Military Installation, Bronato is left most untouched by the strong arm of law and order. These factors in tandem with the poverty levels attribute the routine violence and disorder that plagues the city. <br /> <br /> The city center boasts the majority of the limited wealth in the town. It is lavishly decorated in an intentionally old style, so as to create the appearance that the city has weathered time. Compared to Almagast, the city is not incredibly appealing. However, to the scoundrel, skig, scap, or scallywag Bronato is a great place to make money. Once outside the city center, open trade of illegal goods makes up the majority of the high yielding businesses. <br /> <br /> In the slums, drugs and prostitution are common place. This disturbing fact often brings soldiers and even weary Dark Jedi to the city of sin. Illegal gambling, Illegal death matches, and illegal racing are also popular activities in the city. Though many of the most popular activities in Bronato are illegal, police and political leaders are often involved alongside the public. Known as a generally dismal place, the city offers little for tourists but brings bounties for opportunists.<br /> <br /> '''Port Harbinger-''' Located on the West Island of the “Four Tomes”, Port Harbinger is a resort getaway town. Eager to explore, residents of Ptolomea frequent Port Harbinger for its magnificent vistas and raw appeal. The city faces the sea, looking onto the nearby island of Ygp. Though not visible by human eyes, the proximity of Ygp add feeds the booming city. Port Harbinger is also constructed on a loose model of Almagast. The city is known for swindlers and hustlers, who are always frequent where tourists are. Port Harbinger offers many attractions, in spite of its relatively small size. Most residents of the city work in the entertainment business, drawing sustenance from passing travelers. <br /> <br /> Beautiful beaches, a rich nightlife, great accommodations, and a wealth of adventure draw tourists like flies to a corpse. Local artisans have established their wealth to those visiting from other worlds, creating a small export of Ptolomean goods. While hardly measurable in the economic scheme of the planet, artisans are among the richest of the city’s citizens. Home of the landmark pub: ''Cloak &amp; Dagger''.<br /> <br /> '''Masa Pluris-''' Primarily a frontier town, Masa Pluris is the agricultural producer of the Ptolomean cities. A large market bustles at the center of the city, luring traders and farmers alike the market is the economic center of the city. Life in Masa Pluris is simple and focused on yielding crops. Originally established as the Capital, Masa Pluris slipped behind Almagast as the cultural heart of Ptolomea and instead picked up the role as provider for its brothers and sisters around the jungle world. <br /> <br /> Mostly content with their choices, residents of Masa Pluris are often seen as simpletons by outsiders. Subsistance farming is often a career for residents. Accordingly, few ever leave their homes. There is little interest in this city for major development despite it’s proximity to the large city of Bronato. Resting some one hundred kilometers away, Masa Pluris also calls the Cradle of Almanca home. Rich soil and resources are indicative of this region, thus Masa Pluris is well placed. <br /> <br /> Flying under the direct flag of Clan Scholae Palatinae, Masa Pluris’ local government consists of Clan Employed personnel. Although infrequent, rapscallions from Bronato will wander into the town and cause ruckus. Abhorring the ideals and format of Bronato, Masa Pluris policing officials will shoot to kill those who defame their town.<br /> <br /> '''Tetoulichican-''' A jungle city, Tetoulichican rises up out of the dense inland forest of Helia. Located in the foothills of the massive Sword’s Edge Mountain Range, Tetoulichican feels the relief of elevation over the blistering heat of the lowland jungle. The giant stone city is guarded by archaic statues, leaving some testament to the people who came to Ptolomea before them. These stone soldiers are present throughout the cityscape, showing the innate warrior in the people who made them. Though the original origin of these sculptures is unknown, they give distinct feel to the city. When walking through the stone streets of the city, one feels transported to a much older time. <br /> <br /> While a technologically modern city, the avenues and boulevards of the city maintain their old world feeling. Speeders, Traders, Businessmen, and all staples of modern metropolitan living fill the streets. A city of nearly 2 million, Tetoulichican relies primarily on trade routes from the coasts for survival. This long and arduous journey has prompted the city to begin construction on a vital lifeline to Almagast. This gigantic thoroughfare will bring new life to the Jungle City. In early stages of the construction, many personel were lost to guerilla attacks. In an attempt to contend with raiding parties, Tetoulichican is well policed. With a full contention of full time Militiamen and 2000 Stormtroopers, Tetoulichican is one of the more peaceful towns on Ptolomea. <br /> <br /> The Clan’s Stormtroopers stationed in Tetoulichican are particularly well trained in guerilla tactics and are often trained as commandos. Of these, few are selected for the Special Forces. These single men fighting units reside within the city and are revered. Special Armor sets them apart from their compatriots and allows them to disappear into the jungles around the city. Called ‘Ghosts’ these fighting units are indicative of Tetoulichican. Like the stone soldiers that protected the city for ages before, the Ghosts embody the spirit of the town. <br /> <br /> '''Serpent’s Vanguard-''' The Serpent’s Vanguard is located on the northern continent of Gaias. Nestled deep in the forested foothills just south of the formidable Daggerspine Mountain range, the Vanguard covers the tops of two closely adjoined hills. <br /> <br /> The heart of House Caliburnus, the Serpent’s Vanguard is comprised of the Obsidian Palace, and the various support buildings needed by the House and her members for daily operations. It is far enough from any cities or settlements to provide a measure of seclusion for the Dark Jedi that make this place their home. However, it is not truly isolated as the Vanguard possesses a major communication network that keeps the House and specifically the Quaestor in touch with their planet, as well as the rest of the Clan. <br /> <br /> '''Ft. Lance-''' As the main operational groundside base for the Scholae Palatinae TIE Corp, Ft. Lance shelters the new recruits of the clan’s Fighter contingents. While achieving Combat Pilot status is incredibly difficult, Ensigns to the Corp run strenuous training exercises day and night. A small and busy military base, few faces remain around Ft. Lance for long. <br /> <br /> The Fortress itself is built into the side of a steep cliff, sheltering it from simple assaults. A Garrison of 2,000 Stormtroopers stands guard, ready at a moment’s notice ready to protect the Clan’s Assets. Rigidly separated from the often cocky collage of Pilots, the Clan’s Marines call this base home when not away. Rotating between thousands of other troopers stationed aboard the clan’s Star Destroyers, these warriors are just as transient as the rotating Pilot Corp. With these factors in mind, Ft. Lance is a place of perpetual change.<br /> <br /> There is little aesthetic value to the city, whose only citizens are the Clan’s soldiers. Drab gray halls and windowless rooms cause those on extended deployment to develop overwhelming symptoms of depression. With a boringly typical layout for military installations, Ft. Lance is not an attraction by any means. While this is somewhat significant, Ft. Lance holds a frightening grip on the entire Cocytus System. Known to produce the best pilots (as there is nothing to do but train), this Installation is a bastion against future assailments in the system.<br /> <br /> '''Ft. Arrow-''' Out of the remains of a Military Training Installation, life flowed into Fort Arrow. Though little remains of the military base, the city that fed the small fortress, booms on the isle of Ygp. A wide spread suburban city, Ft. Arrow takes up an extraordinary amount of space for its relatively small population. Only half a million souls call this place home, whereas up to one million are only visitors. Seen as the big town on a small island, Ft. Arrow holds a wonderful reputation among its guests.<br /> <br /> An avid nightlife, open culture, and nude beaches draw increasing numbers of people. Such guests as Braecen Kaeth and Dakari Kaeth are known to frequent the nude beaches when time is available. Also, Prostitution is legal in Ft. Arrow, undoubtedly a relic of the former military occupation. Coalitions of working class women run the sex-rings, under the direct protection of the law. Though there are many other reasons, this seems to be the primary reason for male visitors to visit Ft. Arrow. <br /> <br /> Although it is a tourist town, Ft. Arrow harbors dark secrets of the clan’s past. Protected only by blissful ignorance, the population is oblivious to its military past.<br /> <br /> ==Significant Landmarks==<br /> <br /> '''Serpent’s Vanguard-''' The Serpent’s Vanguard stands watch over Ptolomea from its hilltop perch, ever vigilant against any attack upon either the House or the Clan. The central hub of the House Caliburnus headquarters as well as the command center for the Bastion Regiment resides within the boundaries of the Vanguard. While the Serpent’s Vanguard is well positioned and equipped for war, it is not without its own cultural atmosphere as well, boasting several gardens, and many leisure activities for the Dark Jedi that call the place home. <br /> <br /> '''Potentium Gorge-''' One of the few Geographic landmarks on Ptolomea that is visible from Space, Potentium Gorge is a gigantic crack in the crust of the planet. Carved by the hungry Dar Zhu River, Potentium Gorge reaches nearly four kilometers deep. Beginning in the Central Mountain Range of Helia, the canyon is bordered by some of the largest peaks on the planet. One such peak, Tenato Mountain, peers over the canyon from 14, 567 feet above sea level. The gorgeous vistas from the mountain are said to inspire poets and fuel other artisans. <br /> <br /> As the canyon comes down from the mountains, it continues to cut through the flat lands of the continent. Hundreds of waterfalls dot the Dar Zhu River from headwaters to mouth. Over the 3,000 kilometer journey, the river descends 12,000 feet before spilling into the sea. Rich limestone and granite rocks give the canyon a certain sparkle over the entirety of its length.<br /> <br /> Potentium Gorge features a steep drop off on both sides, making the climb to the river extremely tedious. Adventurers often climb down to explore the mostly untainted land. Much like Beggar’s Canyon on Tatooine, Pilots, both civilian and military, fly through the canyon at high speeds, testing their nerves as well as their skills.<br /> <br /> '''Blood Forest-''' The Blood Forest is a dark-side rich area of jungle near the equator. Shrouded in mystery, the Blood Forest was discovered by then Quaestor Impetus Korin on her quest for the blade of Caliburnus. The Forest features extremely difficult terrain, making traversing it by vehicle or by foot extremely difficult. Few landmarks are distinguishable in the extremely dense forest. In the forest, the Skeletal remains of a Greater Krayt Dragon lie hidden along the excursion’s route to the Temple of Caliburnus. <br /> <br /> Undoubtedly tainted by the presence of the evil weapon, the Blood Forest stinks of putrid death and is the home of many mysterious and equally dangerous creatures. Few who enter the forest ever leave. Nestled in the Northeastern portion of Helia, it is regarded as a place that should be left alone to rot. Only the brave or the extremely foolish dare to venture into the unbridled wilderness. It is bordered on the west by a nearly impassible sharp rise known as the Anima Ridge. South of the Blood Forest is the dangerous Serpentine River, named for its twisting path and its inhabitants, a particular species of aquatic serpent that is highly venomous. <br /> <br /> '''Ruined Temples-''' One of the few landmarks on the Continent of Gaias, the Ruined Temples are the relics of a civilization that has long since passed into the Force. Though little more than weathered rocks remain, the clear outline of large temples makes this place a welcomed retreat for archeologists and treasure seekers alike. Little is known about the ruins and few artifacts have been retrieved. It is thought that this Society may have had something to do with the harboring of the Weapon Caliburnus. It is believed that many more secrets of the past lie under the overturned rocks, waiting for the right person to uncover them.<br /> <br /> '''Temple of Caliburnus-''' The Temple Caliburnus sits in the heart of the Blood Forest, thus making it the most unreachable spot on the planet. Known as the resting place of the House’s namesake, this Temple complex consists of eight to ten pyramids. The largest and most central of these buildings holds a mysterious rift in the space time continuum. The other pyramids expand outwards in a radial pattern, protecting the center complex from the outside jungles. With portals and time rifts to other world, Tatooine included, the Temple is an extremely disorienting place. Those present may disappear in front of their companion’s eyes. They are large enough to transport a Greater Krayt Dragon to the planet, so one can never be certain what to expect. Though the late Dark Jedi Master Niemand “Duda” Machweg, was said to have sealed the portals strange sightings continue to this day.<br /> <br /> While this precarious danger looms overhead, a race of violent guardians protects the land from unwonted intruders. These beasts have burning red eyes, making them increasingly intimidating. Fast and voracious, the guardians can kill an unsuspecting victim without them ever being alerted to their presence. Rudimentary carvings in the temple walls warn of hundreds of other dangers, including these guardians. In some depictions, they are seen slaughtering hundreds of warriors.<br /> <br /> In other depictions around the Temple, prophetic displays of the legendary duel between the Twi’lek Impetus and the Human Thran Occasus, each of whom were driven by the desire to hold the weapon Caliburnus, only exacerbate the peculiarities of the area. In the dense undergrowth of the jungle, ancient screams still echo through the air bringing a chilling feeling about the entire complex. Though no longer the home of the Caliburnus Lightsaber, other secrets are still protected by this powerful Dark-Side temple.<br /> <br /> '''Iluvian Whorl-''' Where the retreating seas leave a barren tidal plain, in the middle of the sea dividing the Northern and Southern Continents, a geological marvel has occurred. Spinning like the water down a drain, the Iluvian Whorl is a chasm leading into the very heart of the planet itself. The abyss drops far beyond the depths of the rest of the sea, penetrating into the semi-viscous mantle of the planet. The anomaly is thought to help warm the planet, giving rise to the jungle heat of the land above it as well as heating the water to warm tropical temperatures. Accessible only during the periods of extremely low tide, this region is incredibly difficult to find.<br /> <br /> Deep within the hole, a latticework of volcanic channels creates massive cave networks, spanning for hundreds if not thousands of kilometers under the surface of the planet. In the pitch black depths, explorers find themselves disoriented. When traveling by submersible, many return from expeditions delirious and in a state of psychosis. Rumors of leviathans, beasts of the deep, make there way to the fishing villages around the area in frequent numbers making this area full of superstition and lore. While these stories are dismissed by the majority of the population, some truth lies in all legends.<br /> <br /> '''Podium Mount-''' A plateau-like mountain on the Northern Continent. Podium Mount rises 10,000 feet in a straight vertical column of volcanic remains. The mountain is a magnificent geological feat, unlike any of the surrounding peaks. Believed to be the remains of a once active Supervolcano, all that remains is a pillar of weathered rock. <br /> <br /> Home to a several specific breeds of predatory birds, the mountain bears surprising biodiversity. Aggressive Raptors threaten all who dare venture close enough to one of the thousands of nests placed in the sides of the mountain. Said to grant great spiritual power to those who conquer it, Dark Jedi will often attempt to complete the arduous climb alone. Skill, courage, and self centeredness are required to surmount the Mountain’s apex.<br /> <br /> '''Mesantine Coast-''' Of the thousands of miles of beach present on Ptolomea, the Mesantine Coast is surely the most beautiful. The along the southern most edge of the Helian Super continent, nearly 15 thousand kilometers of unscathed virgin beaches decorate the Jungle landscape. Brilliant sands of varying colors set this beach system apart from the others. In the East, pasty white sands bid farewell to the setting sun each day. Conversely, in the west dark red and brown sands bring an eerie feeling to the jungles that loom behind the beach. Almagast, which lies near the center of the elaborate coastline, features wonderful ivory colored sand. Differences in mineral concentration create this elaborate difference in sand tones. <br /> <br /> Just off the shore, an immense barrier reef harbors unimaginable amounts of sea life. Brilliant Tropical fish make there home in the coral reefs, flourishing in the ever present light. This biomass has developed in such a way that corals are able to sustain both exposure to air and the extreme pressures of depth. In periods of extremely low tide, elaborate labyrinths of coral caves protrude from the surface of the sea. The home for millions of species, sea birds make up the bulk of visible lifeforms at Low tide. As the scavengers search for crustaceans and other invertebrates, marine reptiles and other predators come out to feast. Surely one of the greatest exhibits of life on Ptolomea, this reef system is nearly contiguous along the entire coastline.<br /> <br /> Spanning the greater part of the continent, the coast is widely patrolled by Clan forces. While on foot patrol, soldiers often become distracted with the paradise spending days at a time lounging on the soft sand. This frequent patrol has come to be known as ‘The Shore-leave Patrol’ due in part to the lax nature of the military activities. Reserved for seasoned veterans, beach patrolling is considered an earned rite in the Military community.<br /> <br /> '''Cradle of Amlanca-''' This fertile stretch of land rests on the Northern continent of Gaias. As the agricultural center of the planet, frequent trading has caused rapid development of several large cities including the slummy Bronato. Nitrogen rich soil and relatively flat terrain sets this region apart from the rest of the planet. Comparatively, deep Jungle habitats feature notoriously acidic and nutrient poor soil. <br /> <br /> With this in mind, Human settlers exploited the region for all its natural resources. The Cradle is one of the few inland areas that is open and easily accessible to people. Spanning over nearly 40,000 square kilometers, the area has nearly 6 times the population density of any other comparable tract of land on Ptolomea. The veritable lifeline for the rest of Ptolomea’s cities, the Cradle of Amlanca is one of the most valuable assets seen on the surface of the world. <br /> <br /> Stories in and around the ancestral farming lands tell of well fed creatures growing to nearly double the size that their jungle relatives would. These creatures include sunbathing carnivorous reptiles, which spend the majority of their days basking in warm light, as well as game-fish, which during spawning season churn the rivers with millions of members. During the aquatic spawning season, the rivers draw copious amounts of life to feed on the spawning fish. As the banks of the river fill with humans and predators alike, it is truly a sight to behold.<br /> <br /> '''Horner’s Maw-''' Near the Islands of Tetralibros, the seas churn up a mysterious whistling noise. This noise turns inland and carries through the jungles of each island. On the Northern Island, features of nature turns this soft whistling wind into a triumphant symphony. The rock features capture the wind, turning the gentle sounds into what appears to be a group of brass players playing a delightful fanfare for any who witness it. <br /> <br /> Upon investigation, scientist learned that this phenomenon was actually caused by a structure created by sentient beings. Appearing as a monolithic structure, the Horner’s Maw is an architectural wonder. It uses the sciences of resonance as well as sound waves to harness the normally calm winds. While the exact nature of the structure is not know, it is known that had it been built in any other location the results would not be the same. <br /> <br /> Thought to contain some secret of the ancients, the Horner’s Maw continues to amaze and mystify those who venture into the rocky wilderness.<br /> <br /> '''Jormungand Quarry and Mines-''' The Jormungand Quarry is a large, deep gorge that has been cut away into the bedrock of the Ptolomean surface. Rich veins of a particularly unique stone has been discovered here and was quarried exclusively for use in the construction of the Obsidian Palace, with some of the stone also being used in accent points on the Basilisk Medical and Research building, and the Bastion Regimental Barracks. The surrounding chain of mines that surround the central quarry have provided a fair supply of ores, gems, and valuable minerals, however, the geologic surveys indicate that the deposits are not rich enough to sustain continuous mining operations. In an effort to conserve and protect the resources available on Ptolomea, the Quarry and Mines are heavily monitored and strict regulations keep any one party from abusing the resource and stripping it dry too soon. <br /> <br /> '''Daggerspine Mountains-''' Tall and jagged peaks dominate the Daggerspine range. Situated just north of the Serpent’s Vanguard, the lower foothills of the Daggerspine Mountains actually serve as protection for the headquarters of House Caliburnus. Some of the more intrepid adventurers of the House will attempt to clime the forbidding peaks, most give up before they reach the summits. Harsh winds howl through the mountains, and it is not until you reach the lower foothills near the Serpent’s Vanguard that you find significant vegetation due to the harsh conditions and barren ground of the peaks themselves. <br /> <br /> '''Crystalridge Falls-''' The Crystalridge Falls are a magnificent chain of huge waterfalls that decorate the Crystalridge Mountains. The most unique feature of the region is that the rock that makes up the Ridge is rich in crystal content, and as the waterfalls have etched their marks upon the mountains, thousands of multicolored crystals have become exposed. When the sunlight shines into the area, the light sparkles and reflects not only off the hundreds of waterfalls but also on the countless crystals. The effect has made the Crystalridge Falls extraordinarily popular for sightseers of all sorts. However, aware that this natural wonder was also very fragile, and prone to vandalism, the government of Ptolomea set up frequent patrols and stationary monitoring stations to protect the Falls and their stunning beauty for ages to come. <br /> <br /> '''Cloak &amp; Dagger''' (Pub and Brothel)- Granted one square kilometer in the Port Harbinger district, at the discretion of the Emperor and Grand Marshal, to be used for an outpost under the banner of [[House Dorimad Sol]]. The House's nefarious leaders elected to expand the definition of an outpost: a position apart from the main force. The cunning and guile of Quaestor Thran Occasus - with assistance from Aedile Prajna Berkana - concluded that the position should bring great value to the traditionally Obelisk House. The value, in their mind's eye, would not be militant, but a decided advantage of information and profit.<br /> <br /> Breaking ground along the waterfront of the district, the leaders of the House conspired to construct a massive, multi-floored building that would serve as a pub and gentleman's club. Adhering to a strict motif and Clan doctrine, the building was built not only to be an attractive storefront, but to include solid - yet hidden - military advantage should the building ever be breached. The lower floors are open to all patrons, hosting a series of bars, open spaces and the necessary dim lighting - nooks and crannies included - to hide the faces of known occupants. The next several floors act as an upper-echelon VIP experience; with the third floor serving as a barrier, or meeting ground, between the taverns female denizens and the individuals whom come to taste the local fare. The fourth floor is reserved for the girls, workers and the remaining staff necessary to operate the facility; however, at the South end of the hall resides a turbolift to the fifth, and final, level.<br /> <br /> It is on the fifth level that business is conducted and security is monitored. The junior members of House Dorimad Sol are sent, under the command of the Dark Jedi on assignment, to collect information passed amongst patrons, bankroll the funds brought in and establish a network of spies and confidants. Ultimately, the tavern acts as a gathering place of both local and exotic patrons with access to highly guarded information. Instead of attempting to spread a network far across the stars, Thran Occasus and Prajna Berkana elected to create a hub where not only would informants come to them, but they could turn a profit on them, as well. Currently stationed as the overseer of the establishment is Dark Jedi Knight Korbin - a Coruscanti native with a flair for bashing heads when patrons become unruly.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Political Outlook== <br /> <br /> Before the days of House Caliburnus, Ptolomea was dominated by merciless empires. The primitive cultures fought for resources, honor, and domination of the jungle world. However, as these mighty empires waned, the Clan Scholae Palatinae arrived on the scene to mop up the struggling kingdoms. Known as the only inhabitants of the planet for years, House Caliburnus established a rigid political structure. In this structure, only one thing came above the House; The Clan.<br /> <br /> The Political process falls directly under the Quaestor, as established in the Totalitarian rule of then Quaestor Thran Occasus. While the individual branches have learned to become semi-independent, all major changes and orders are received from the House Leadership. Until or unless an order were to come from the Clan Summit, the protection of Ptolomea rest solely upon its dictator. In the functional levels of government, Governors rule over the immediate public. Just as the Imperial system of Moffs operated, Ptolomea embodies the microcosm of the Imperial galaxy. Ptolomea is thus divided into 18 territories, each independently governed under the will of House and Clan.<br /> <br /> Below each Governor, a small legislative group monitors and evaluates what would be best for their region. Below the Governor, thousands of departments monitor all aspects of life on Ptolomea. Ranging from education to the militia, each department is what ultimately controls the everyday life of a Ptolomean citizen. Funding is dispersed by the clan in limited amounts, meaning that each region is economically independent. Investing in the development of industry often builds the most income for and individual territory.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Military Presence== <br /> <br /> Ptolomea is the Bastion world of the Cocytus System. With a large population of soldiers, one could say the planet is effectively under martial law. Military Police make the primary policing force on the planet. Without the strong arm of the Military, the planet would have fallen. Legions upon Legions of Stormtroopers call Ptolomea home. In addition to the gratuitous presence of Stormtroopers, Ptolomea is home to the Clan’s TIE Corp. Under the arm of High Admiral Thran Occasus, the TIE Corp trains constantly. In the event that the Cocytus System was invaded again, the TIE Corp would be ready for instant action. <br /> <br /> Ptolomea seems to embody the spirit of the warrior. Under Sith Tutelage, the Military forces have spawned Ptolomean growth as well as unity under the House banner. As the primary economic force on the Planet, the Military means everything to Ptolomea. Gigantic Citadels and cities show the Military’s statues with fortuitous power. As most civilian professions somehow meet the military in one way or another, Military presence is, simply, everywhere.<br /> <br /> <br /> == See Also ==<br /> * [[Judecca]]<br /> * [[Antenora]]<br /> * [[Caina]]<br /> * [[Cocytus System]]<br /> <br /> [[Category: Planets]][[Category:Scholae Palatinae Dominion]]</div>

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience.

A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> Current Aedile of the greatest House to ever be a part of Clan Scholae Palatinae and the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still coming back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

The twi’lek civilisation in the twilight zone of [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ryloth Ryloth] was built into the side of a mountain, Mount Chir'Lekki, and was mostly isolated from the rest of the galaxy. The only means of transport to and from Siordan’a was a small, recently constructed spaceport.<br /> <br /> The city was almost exclusively comprised of yellow skinned twi’leks, who worshipped their goddess, Kikalekki. A prominent belief of the Siordan’a people was that the lekku of a twi’lek housed the living spirit, and upon death, the spirit was shattered and housed in the lekku of their loved ones, to provide guidance from beyond death. Those with only one lek are said to bring bad luck, and are seen as a lesser form of life.<br /> <br /> Unlike most twi’lek cities, Siordan’a was run not by the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Twi%27lek_Clan_Council Clan Council] by a Royal Family, said to be blessed by the protection of Kikalekki.

She was confused as to why she was given such a high quality room to sleep in, until Savdo Nelik explained.<br /> <br /> She was never to leave the room, aside from to visit the en-suite bathroom. She was ordered to undress in front of Nelik and instead put on an outfit consisting of a yellow skirt, a yellow translucent bra, and nothing else. All her other clothes were confiscated before she was told more.<br /> <br /> Visitors to the cantina, after paying Savdo Nelik, had the option for a private dance from Tonal’la. But she was not limited to being a private dancer. She was forced to fulfil the wishes of everyone of her customers, unless they caused her any physical damage. She was given injections to permanently protect her against various infections, and pregnancy.<br /> <br /> After that, it all began as she was raped by Nelik. The first week was repetitively sickening for the twi’lek, who was still only 14 years old. While the dances weren’t so bad, she found herself being seduced on multiple occasions each day. Particularly cruel was one customer by the name of [[Tyrus Bruth'Kothae|Tyrus]]. In between her customers, she would practice dance. It was the only thing she could do there that allowed her to let go of the burden of life, and also kept her incredibly lithe and athletic.<br /> <br /> Despite this, Tonal’la began to detest her life.

A year of relentless torture, for her it was utter hell. It took a year wallowing in her own despair for the first rational thought to enter her mind.<br /> <br /> ‘‘To seduce is better than to be seduced’’.<br /> <br /> With that came a new plan to help her endure slavery. She would make the first move, and stay in control, even if it meant going further than she would have otherwise. While this didn’t work for her meetings with Tyrus, for the most part, she had developed something that very few people accomplish. A way to enjoy slavery. Tyrus was cruel, racist, sexist, and seemed only to take pleasure in breaking the girl’s spirit.<br /> <br /> Tonal’la kept her unusually positive attitude for another half a year, until she was visited by a twi’lek male, while preying to Kikalekki. Ironically she was particularly repulsed by the males of her own species, but she pounced on him in her usual manner regardless. She was surprised and confused when she was thrown off and helped back to her feet. Then the man explained.<br /> <br /> His name was [[Scept'ine]], and lived in an abandoned [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith_Academy_%28Ryloth%29 Sith Academy] near the Ryloth Brightlands. He was led to her by the Force, and requested she join the academy and learn the Dark Side of the Force.

She also changed her name to Impetus, and vowed to put the past behind her.<br /> <br /> The academy was run by 2 Masters. Scept’ine, and a fosh. Impetus was shocked to discover that the Fosh was none other than the one who murdered the Siordan’a king in front of her. <br /> <br /> While their first meeting was hostile, Impetus understood that he valued his own life above everything else, and didn’t have a choice about killing the king. Impetus had also developed an unexpected trait after leaving Tatooine.

She travelled back to Bestine, claiming she was on the lookout for new students. This was only half of the truth. She had trained under Shaikanetsa for 3 weeks, and was now armed with a Katana, Scept’ine’s armoured robes, bloodlust, and the Force. She had picked up the latter extremely quickly.<br /> <br /> She returned to The Oasis Cantina, and engaged in combat with Savdo Nelik. What she didn’t expect was two guards to emerge unexpectedly and flank her, she was outnumbered three to one.

She thought it was the Force but wasn’t sure. While conversation was difficult, she convinced him to return with her to the Sith Academy.

A [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Neti neti], named [[Ood Bnar]], who was roaming the galaxy in the pursuit of knowledge, and was particularly interested in a certain holocron in the academy. Impetus and Laurus got to know him rather well, but the next visitor wasn’t so welcome.<br /> <br /> Tyrus wasn’t willing to give up his time with Impetus so easily, and had tracked her ship to Ryloth. Scept’ine seemed to like him, and he was Force Sensitive. He was accepted as a member of the Academy.

Half a year later, Tyrus couldn’t hold himself back any longer, and he made significant unwanted advances on Impetus. Luckily for her, Shaikanetsa heard her calls for help, and prevented anything from happening. Tyrus, furious, left the academy in search for somewhere else that would help him train in the Force. By this time, Impetus had worked out a way to combine her skill and continued training in dance with her combat training, and had developed her own elegant style of fighting.<br /> <br /> The next significant event in the academy took place after Impetus had lived there for over two years, and was past 18 years old. Having spent over 2 years on the timeless world of Ryloth, her true date of birth was lost to her.<br /> <br /> Shaikanetsa was the first to see the four Dark Jedi marching towards the academy. He sent a message through the Force to Impetus before taking the only ship, and only means of escape, before fleeing Ryloth.

In a last stand, Scept’ine and Laurus managed to kill another of the attackers, but Scept’ine couldn’t prevent a saber attack to his heart.<br /> <br /> As Laurus and Impetus, whose relationship had grown exponentially since Tatooine, waited to share the same fate as the others, they were given a choice. Replace the ones they killed, or die. Naturally, they chose life, and returned with the two dark Jedi, named Kschamehellan and [[Mune]], the their clan of Dark Jedi, [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]]. <br /> <br /> [[Image:Csp-logo.png|thumb|left|250 px|Impetus was recurited into Scholae Palatinae.

She advanced through the ranks slower than she expected, and without a lover close by, she felt alone. Shaikanetsa was far away, she didn’t even know if they would ever meet again. But regardless of the future, he would have no idea what was happening then. She started a relationship with the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Trandoshan Trandoshan] [[Krath Priest]], Exodius.

She left Acclivis Draco to lead the weaker house, inspired by the mission of evening things out.<br /> <br /> The daunting magnitude of the task before her was set aside by a surprisingly warm welcome from the dominantly [[Sith]] house.

Transferring in from [[Clan Plagueis]] was [[Thran Occasus]]. Impetus found his attitudes mirrored hers. After making him a battleteam leader, their relationship became rather similar to her one with Xen.<br /> <br /> It was around this time when Impetus was given her first student, an [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Zabrak Iridonian] Guardian by the name of [[Cethgus]]. She found him the opposite of herself, where he was strong and resilient, she was fast in mind and body, where he relied on brute force, she would show off her grace and dance. Surprisingly, their partnership was a success. Cethgus was also the one to first produce Impetus’ trademark weapon, a heat powered segmented whip called the lightwhip. Impetus preferred it to her lightsaber, and used it on many occasions.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Impetus Priestess.gif|200px|right|thumb|Impetus, shortly after her promotion to Krath Priestess, as Quaestor of Caliburnus.]]<br /> <br /> ====Accelerated Inheritance====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|You can't stop me now! Nothing, in this world, can stop me! Not until you're dead!| Impetus gets violent}}<br /> Impetus spent much of a tedious [[Seventh Great Jedi War]] on [[Ptolomea]], planning the battles rather that actually participating in them. For her part in this, she was elevated to Priestess at the end of the war. As far as the brotherhood went, this was the peak of her life. She had found something that stretched her abilities to the limit, and where she was needed. But something was still missing. She had sworn vengeance that her father would pay the price for not teaching her the Force, and not saving her from slavery, but she had never done anything about it. Until now.<br /> <br /> Her plan was simple. She would burrow a random civilian ship, return to the Siordan'a Fire Temple, and provide adequate proof of her royal status for a private meeting with her Father. Then she would engage and kill him, claiming the city, and his possessions, for herself, before returning to Ptolomea.<br /> <br /> The first parts of the plan went well. She reached Siordan'a, showed a royal medallion as proof of her bloodline, and was told to see her father in the throne room. The sight she was faced with in the room surprised her somewhat. Rather than seeing him alone, the king was flanked by 10 guards.<br /> <br /> After a heated argument with him about her slavery, the Dark Side, and her hatred for him, only one solution was possible. Zentu'la told his guards not to interfere before he activated his Lightsaber. Impetus did the same. The second their blades locked it was clear they were almost even in strength. The duel lasted for about half an hour, neither side willing to back down. <br /> <br /> After lightning quick show of bladework and the Force, the fateful blow was struck as Impetus' saber severed one lek of her father, a slow, painful, evident death for a twi'lek. She stammered back, shocked by what she had done, before hearing her father's last words. Words that would change her life completely.<br /> <br /> Before he died, the light Jedi confessed the mistakes he made in life. He accepted that Impetus should have learnt the Force at an earlier age, accepted that the Dark Side was more powerful, and told Impetus he was proud of her choices, and said he will always be with her, even beyond his Death. He then told his guards to praise their new monarch. 'Impetus, the Shadow Queen.' Despite Impetus' best efforts to save her father's life, he died in her arms through the confession that she loved him.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Smaller Chir'daki.png|frame|left|[[The Echo]] was traditionally passed down through the [[Siordan'a]] royal family.]]<br /> <br /> ====The Siordan'a Exodus====<br /> <br /> {{Quote| For the first time I'm glad, to have you as my father.| Impetus' last words to Zentu’la}}<br /> In the whole of Siordan'a history, not one female monarch has ever been crowned. Some of the guard considered the new ruler sacrilegious, for both her gender and the murder of the King, and attacked her on sight, while those on Impetus' side were the minority. <br /> A fight broke out across the Fire Temple, and almost half the Royal Guard were cut down by Impetus and those who stood by her. In the midst of the fray, Impetus' mother, disconsolate at her husband's death, took her own life.<br /> <br /> After the fray, the Siordan'a Council waited a week for things to calm down before naming Impetus as the new monarch. This decision upset a lot of the population, and caused many to leave, as it was against religion to have a female leader.<br /> <br /> Upon coronation, Impetus received all of her father's possessions.

After years of research, Shaikanetsa had managed to track Impetus to the [[Cocytus System]]. <br /> <br /> She was sat in her office when he walked in, both overjoyed to see each other. Impetus' first reaction however put across the wrong message, as she slapped him across the face for leaving her to die on Ryloth.<br /> <br /> It took a few days for her to calm down, but after that, they became as close as they ever were, and for Impetus it made up for the loss of her family, and also put a stop to her sexual escapades with Xen and Thran.<br /> <br /> In CSP, Shaikanetsa decided it would be better for him to join the CSP army rather than the Dark Jedi portions. After masking his Force Sensitivity from those would recognise it, he was placed in the [[3rd Legion: 77th Assault]].<br /> ====Equilibrium====<br /> <br /> {{Quote| One life can make a mark upon this world, one life can move the wheel of history.| Impetus}}<br /> <br /> Tensions began to grow between Acclivis Draco and Caliburnus. Impetus, who hadn’t forgotten her time in Acclivis Draco, was powerless to stop the ensuing [[Contention| war]] against rival Quaestor [[RevengeX Palpatine|RevengeX]].<br /> <br /> Caliburnus were commonly believed to be the weaker house, but in their first clash since before Impetus took command, the houses seemed evenly matched. An attempt on Impetus’ life was made, but it was foiled by her lightsaber. The whip forged by Cethgus, the Lightwhip, was destroyed in a duel with RevengeX.<br /> <br /> Against Impetus’ will, the tensions erupted into a full scale war on Judecca. The eventual battle was prevented by an attack on Judecca by a mutual enemy, but it was clear to Acclivis Draco that Caliburnus were no longer an inferior force, and must be treated as an equal. Impetus had done what she set out to do in Caliburnus, and rejoined her first house, Acclivis Draco, where she was also re-united with Laurus. As Shaikanetsa had been inducted into the Caliburnus defence forces, they were separated again.<br /> <br /> [[Image:5951-saber.jpg|left|thumb|150px|DragonFang, Impetus' Lightsaber, forged by Raven]]<br /> <br /> ====The Ultimate Betrayal====<br /> <br /> {{Quote| He did deserve it though| Kalak Ragnos}}<br /> <br /> The separation from Shaikanetsa caused a change in Impetus’ mentality. She looked back on the time they spent together, on Ryloth and Ptolomea. She started to realise a selfish nature within him. She wanted a way to punish him, and her sexual drive was burning. The first lucky man to catch her eye was the Rollmaster, [[Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine| Cuchulain]]. Their escapades were replicated in a holo-recording by Impetus’ R6 Droid.<br /> <br /> But one affair wasn’t enough for her. She knew how strong Shaikanetsa’s feelings for her were, and how what she planned would affect him. Next to reap the benefits of the twi’lek’s lust for vengeance were [[Arion Sunrider|Arion]] and [[Kalak]]. But while two were human and one was [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Falleen falleen], they had too much in common for the effect she wanted. Her next partner was the first of its kind since her time on slavery. [[Xathia]] wasn’t too fussy about who she was with, and so she was the fourth, to the disappointment of more than a few males who heard of Impetus’ plans.<br /> <br /> Rumours are that Impetus was also with a fifth partner, the mere mention of which can be more than sickening to the average mind, and wasn’t captured on a holo recording. While this was confirmed by Impetus, the name wasn’t.<br /> <br /> Shaikanetsa felt a mix of emotions, ranging from despair to rage. He forgot all love he once had for her, as it morphed into hate. Had he not been bound to the Caliburnus Defence Forces, he would have killed her. Impetus merely smiled at his threatening message, and put Shaikanetsa behind her.<br /> <br /> While it took virtually no time at all for Impetus to forgive RevengeX for what happened in the war, RevengeX was slightly hesitant with her at first after their conflict. This started to frustrate Impetus, knowing she was worthy of his trust. After a week or so, she began to offer certain services to RevengeX in order to attempt to rebuild their friendship This seemed to earn her preferential treatment, and was the first inducted into the Quaestor’s personal guard, [[Order of the Dragon|The Order of the Dragon]]. She was also given a new whip to replace the lightwhip, forged by the best smith in Acclivis Draco, as ordered by RevengeX, as a mark of her loyalty to the Dragon house, and somewhat as an apology for breaking her old one. It was appropriately named ‘The Dragon’s Tail’.<br /> <br /> ====True Love====<br /> <br /> {{Quote| The Dragon’s Tail isn’t the right whip for this. I’ve got more though.| Impetus to Ararin Korin}}<br /> <br /> Around two months before [[Second Darkness]], a curiously picked team of 5 Dark Jedi, including Impetus and Laurus, found themselves on an unknown world, seeking passage back to Judecca. Up to this point Impetus had carried on her relationships with the four that provided her vengeance against Shaikanetsa, but this was about to change.<br /> <br /> The group of 5 was joined by an excellent twi’lek human hybrid marksman, by the name of [[Ararin Korin]]. He bore the better features of both races, and Impetus found him incredibly attractive. Near the climax of their mission on the unknown world, Impetus was thrown backwards, and landed straddled on Ararin’s waist.<br /> <br /> After making a comment about The Dragon’s Tail, the two started talking. They kissed as the rest of the group chased off an enemy. After they finished their task, Impetus took Ararin back to Antenora, where he joined the Order of the Dragon as a sniper. Her sexual relationships with everyone else ended immediately, for she had finally found a partner who wouldn’t abandon her for anything. From that day she made a vow to be loyal to him, her love for eternity.<br /> <br /> ====The effect of Love====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|Eternity's a long time, love. But living with you it'll pass like a heartbeat.| Impetus to Ararin}}<br /> <br /> Despite frequent temptations, Impetus retained her loyalty to Ararin Korin, with the exception of a few casual relationships with other girls, all of which Ararin gave permission for. Their mutual love continued to build, the pair enjoyed the relationship past the Rite of Supremacy, up to about 4 months together without any arguments or strife.<br /> <br /> Life alongside Ararin had made Impetus a completely different person. She started to change quickly, given a completely different perception of life. By the time of Second Darkness, Impetus had become a far happier person, and constantly exceptionally serene, often bearing more traits of a light Jedi than Dark. Even during combat in the Rite of Supremacy, Impetus constantly seemed to wear a serene smile, all thanks to her relationship with Ararin. But with some plans Impetus had the two would get closer still.<br /> <br /> In the weeks preceding the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]], preparations began on Siordan’a as they prepared for the week-long return of Impetus and Ararin. While there, there seemed no better time or place for the two to marry. The ceremony passed much the same way their relationship did, and had the newly married pair not had to return for the RoS award Ceremony, they would have happily stayed in Siordan’a for a long time.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Impetus post gjw 8.jpg|thumb|right|After settling down with Ararin, Impetus' physical appearance has cahnged for the better, considerably.]]<br /> <br /> ====Broken Bliss====<br /> <br /> {{quote| What in Revan’s name… What did I just see?

The majority of the Cocytus System was surrendered, the entire clan was pushed back to a small section of Judecca, and the new constant presence in her life in the form of Sauni added to a problem that had gradually emerged since she began life with Ararin. As her only ship was The Echo, a single seat starfighter, transportation became incredibly problematic.<br /> <br /> After discussing this with several members she passed on Judecca, the best suggestion came from RevengeX, who as an ex-smuggler himself, know a fair bit about where to acquire a ship cheaply. He provided Impetus with directions on how to meet with a nameless smuggling organisation who were using a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Horizon-class_star_yacht Horizon-Class Star Yacht] as their transporting ship.<br /> <br /> Impetus guessed RevengeX had a hand in it, but as she reached the nameless organisation’s headquarters on [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Coruscant Coruscant], they were expecting her arrival.<br /> <br /> After being shown the ship, she was satisfied that it would suit her needs, and negotiations began. It quickly became apparent that Impetus just didn’t have the assets to purchase the ship directly, but while she could have easily killed them all and stole it, she wanted to avoid bloodshed. Gambling seemed to be the only way of getting it into her possession, but even then the stakes were incredibly high.<br /> <br /> Impetus settled on gambling her freedom, all her credits, and every one of her possessions against the Horizon Class Yacht she had set her eyes on.

However, as the majority of the planet was in Yuuzhan Vong control, she would have to wait until after the planned counter-attack to really get into her new role.<br /> <br /> The mission itself, however, went far less than smoothly. The task of Impetus and the Order of the Dragon was to reclaim and drive the Yuuzhan Vong out of the Rakatan Temple on [[Antenora]]. Ararin was told to stay away, as there was no room for a marksman in the temple, and his bladework wasn’t good enough to combat a Yuuzhan Vong.<br /> <br /> Upon entering, Impetus decided to split the group into three, choosing to break off with only Laurus for support.

As Impetus’ foe heard his comrade’s roar of pain, he whipped around, sending the twi’lek flying off the ground with a vicious forearm smash to the neck. Before she even touched the floor again, her head collided with the wall, her lekku miraculously escaped damage, but her neck crunched up horribly.<br /> <br /> The damage was sufficient to relinquish her grip on reality, as she faded into unconsciousness, the wookie thought she had been killed, and went into a completely feral rage, holding back the two Yuuzhan Vong warriors himself. Eventually though, they proved too much for him, he was incapacitated, and carried out of the temple to wherever the Yuuzhan Vong wanted to take him.<br /> <br /> Impetus awoke three days later in a hospital bed, surrounded by the rest of the Order and her husband.

To Impetus' relief, he got along well with Sauni Demai, and the three developed a strong mutual friendship incredibly quickly, abbreviating their names to form the trio 'Sin'.<br /> <br /> ===Path of the Palpatine===<br /> <br /> [[Image:Cremation.jpg|right|thumb|Cremation was given to Impetus by Xathia, and was made by Locutov]]<br /> <br /> ====Initiation====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|As a guardian of the Royal Clan, welcome to the Royal Family.|[[Phoenix Olkyssagh Palpatine]]}}<br /> <br /> When Impetus was sent an unknown message, merely a grid location and a time, she had no idea what was planned for her later that day. Wearing her armoured robe, armed with her lightsaber and The Dragon's Tail, she departed for the unknown locationion, her husband as always beside her.<br /> <br /> Unfased by the lightning storm, the Korins found their destination in the form of a tunnel built into the monolith. Upon entering, a cloaked and unknown figure sent Ararin flying back outside, the tunnel closed after him. Give no choice, Impetus followed the cloaked man, and became surrounded by 9 cloaked, and unknown figures.<br /> <br /> Their message confused her: ''You have been summoned her today to be held accountable for your acts within the Royal Clan, Scholae Palatinae.'' She had always been the honorable, honest, loyal, serene, even innocent one, what could she have done?<br /> <br /> Before given any time to think on this however, she was dragged into the air by Force Energy, spontaneous pain and electricity coursed through her, and her precious armoured robes were burned to cinders. Nothing she did helped to fight the pain, and it was only when she tried to embrace it, that it immediately subsided.<br /> <br /> Impetus, now naked, dropped to the ground, as several of the dark figures also staggered. It was as the nine drew back their hoods, revealing an assembly of the Palpatines, that Impetus realised what 'her acts within the Royal Clan' truely were. She left that place Impetus Korin Palpatine.<br /> <br /> After the new Palpatine was announced to the clan, she was given two presents as congratulations, from close friends Xathia and [[Robin Hawk]]. From Xathia came a lethal new whip, cremation, shown right, and Robin had made her a very elegant gold piece of jewellery.<br /> <br /> ====A Winter Break====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|Events like this bring the houses and the clan together to be the family we’re supposed to be|Impetus on the Winter Games}}<br /> <br /> After serving her clan for many exhausting years, Impetus finally decided she would take a much needed break in the Clan’s Winter Games, and took the chance to get to know some of the newer members she hadn’t yet had the chance to speak to.<br /> <br /> She didn’t give much of an effort in the games’ events themselves, as the twi’lek thought it a better way to spend her time to spread the festivities and make the winter games more enjoyable for the members involved<br /> <br /> The games passed amicably, and greatly helped to expand her knowledge of the clan’s membership across all three houses, most significantly establishing a strong friendship with Caliburnus’ [[Eludajae M'Nar]].<br /> <br /> Shortly after the Winter Games, Impetus was the first to be given a rare honour in the Order of the Dragon, and was promoted from a Third Class to a Second Class member. <br /> <br /> ====Change of Scenery====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|&quot;She's a Twi'lek, and a Krath.&quot; &lt;br&gt; &quot;So, what do you want me to do?&quot; &lt;br&gt; &quot;So, I don't trust her, but she may turn out useful, keep an eye on her, but don't make it obvious.&quot;| Rasilvenaira to Aedile [[Yzarc Rellik Kaeth|Yzarc]] about Impetus}}<br /> <br /> Strangely, it was while honour was bestowed upon her she re-considered her position within Scholae Palatinae. She had been in Acclivis Draco for over two years now, and began to become tired of the same sites, the same halls, the same accommodation.<br /> <br /> As the houses had recently come together for the winter games, the strife between them was at a minimum. In a discussion with Quaestor RevengeX, she put across the request that she wouldn’t be seen as a traitor, and that she wanted to leave for her and the clan’s benefit, to which he agreed. He also allowed her to keep her title of Order of the Dragon, Second Class.<br /> <br /> Ever since the war between the houses, Rasilvenaira, now Quaestor of Caliburnus, had never trusted her, and disliked her for reasons Impetus never quite understood. Having liked Rasilvenaira as a person, and respected her leadership prowess, she would return to Caliburnus to try to eliminate the barrier that seemed to have formed between them, and made the transfer without any strife or difficulty.<br /> <br /> ====A Deathly Call====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|This man controls considerable evil. If trying to take him down will take my life, then so be it. It’s a sacrifice I’ll willingly make.|Impetus to Ararin}}<br /> <br /> In the first month, Impetus began to settle nicely in Caliburnus. Her intimate friendship with Eludajae M'Nar had rapidly progressed to something much more than friendship, and she had become as valuable to Impetus as her husband. However an upcoming tragic turn of events would threaten to destroy her life forever.<br /> <br /> As she relaxed with Ararin, she received an urgent call from her uncle Ahnek'la, on Siordan'a. The city had been attacked and she had to be there as soon as possible. Ahnek'la was killed during the call. While there, the sight tore her heart to pieces. The whole city had been burned to the ground, and male twi'lek corpses littered the rubble.<br /> <br /> The leader of the attack, with five comrades behind him, presented himself to her and explained what was happening. 1000 slavers attacked Siordan'a. All the males had been killed, the females kidnapped, and would be made to watch a screen showing the live torture and killing of their royal family, before they were sold into slavery.<br /> <br /> Impetus went into a frenzy, and alongside her husband she cut down the five slavers as the leader escaped and fled towards the Fire Temple. After a brief discussion with her husband, she made it clear that she would stop at nothing until the leader had paid penance for what he did to her city.<br /> <br /> An ambush was waiting for the Korins as they persued the leader into the Fire Temple. Overwhelmed by about twenty, Impetus' lightsaber and Ararin's Sapphire blade were futile against the size of the assault. They were subdued, disarmed, and separated, treated as common captives.<br /> <br /> ====A Fateful Flight====<br /> <br /> {{Quote|If you fall, you'll die!&lt;br&gt;Don't worry... I can fly!|Impetus}}<br /> <br /> Impetus was stripped and they were both taken to the rocky peak of the mammoth Mount Chir'Lekki by the leader and five slavers. Ararin was restrained, and Impetus was captured on camera as she was forced at knife point right to the edge of a sheer drop, the height of which would kill her ten times over. Outnumbered With no weapon to speak of, blasters pointed at her, and a dagger at her throat, she was completely helpless.<br /> <br /> She was tormented and tortured, in gradually increasing levels of cruelty. The leader would carry on increasing in severity until she asked for her own death.<br /> [[Image:White_Rukh.jpg|right|250 px|thumb|Tiallaquana, a female [[Rukh|White Rukh]]]]<br /> She was forced into an unwanted deep kiss when her father's words echoed in her head: ''This planet will never betray you''. The Dragon's Tail was lashed across her chest. She was then sexually teased in the progressively worse torture. A silky soft voice sounded in her head: ''Have Faith''. If she stayed on the mountain, she would die. The only hope she had was that the planet of Ryloth would protect her. Calm as ever, she rocked backwards, and tipped off the mountainside.<br /> <br /> Her fall was broken midway by a great bird, a [[Rukh|White Rukh]], which carried Impetus back up to the peak to save her husband. Just as the leader taunted what he believed to be the last of the Korins, the Rukh rose above the peak, and Impetus killed him with her lightsaber and Telekinesis. Tragically, and beyond her control, in the ensuing argument between Impetus and the remaining slavers, Ararin was thrown off the side of the mountainside. With Impetus still astride, the Rukh's great wings started beating, combining with the twi'lek's use of the Force to create a gale of strong wind, sending the enemy off the edge to follow her husband.<br /> <br /> While disconsolate at her loss, the majestic bird, Tiallaquana, contacted her telepathically, telling her strongly that they had to flee as quickly as possible. She also offered to life aside Impetus as a friend, and follow her back to Ptolomea. Trying to improve her emotional wellbeing, Tiallaquana asked Impetus if there was anyone else she had loved. Only one name sprang to mind. Eludajae M'Nar.<br /> <br /> When she returned to Caliburnus, her and Eludajae openly declared their love. From then on, she would constantly wear a black collar, engraved with the silver writing 'Property of Eludajae M'Nar' - One of the terms of their relationship.<br /> <br /> With no husband to split her time with, Impetus and Eludajae's mutual feelings grew exponentially in the following weeks. It was not long before the two women would marry, and Impetus would adopt her name of M'Nar. She adjoined it to the end of the name Korin, keeping the first as a sign of eternal love for her deceased husband.<br /> <br /> == Profile ==<br /> <br /> ===Appearance===<br /> <br /> Section undergoing re-thinking with respect to recent marriage to Eludajae. Ludy affects her clothing.<br /> <br /> ===Personality===<br /> <br /> {{Quote|The meaning of life? To me it's to make as many people happy as I can in one lifetime|Impetus}}<br /> <br /> Impetus' personality differs vastly from the stereotypical Dark Jedi. Constantly serene, happy and playful, Impetus is friendly, compassionate and affectionate to all she meets. An altruist in every sense of the word, she would gladly give a lot to help a little. She has been known to go to extra-ordinary lengths to make her fellow housemates feel happy. This has influenced her first choice of occupation in Caliburnus after her husband's death. She has become a table dancer in the Oasis Cantina, to try to make the visitors as happy as they can be.<br /> <br /> Impetus hates combat and strife. She seeks to avoid combat at all times, however she'd be willing to fight for Scholae Palatinae against an external threat. What she truly hates in infighting inside the clan, and seeks to mitigate these conflicts as soon as she can, often using her charm to speed up the process. In her time in Caliburnus, under a Quaestor who respects her disdain for combat, she has become an excellent mediator.<br /> <br /> {{Quote|Her will is stronger than steel. Tempered durasteel, that even the mightiest wookie could not hope to bend|Laurus}}<br /> <br /> Impetus’ loyalty to Scholae Palatinae is eternal, and she carries a fierce passion to overcome any challenge put before her, as she has done in the past. She would never, under any circumstance, betray her clan, or turn on any member of it.<br /> <br /> While she does have her fair share of fears, including slavery, failure, and the death of loved ones, Impetus is notably calm, even playful, in the face of her own Death. It would be an easy decision to trader her life so another could live.<br /> <br /> ===Strengths and Weaknesses===<br /> <br /> ====Strengths====<br /> <br /> *Agility<br /> *Flexibility<br /> *Balance<br /> *Force proficiency<br /> *Willpower<br /> *Intelligence<br /> *Creativity<br /> *Charm<br /> <br /> ====Weaknesses====<br /> <br /> *Constitution<br /> *Physical strength<br /> *Removal of one lek could kill<br /> *Useless Pilot<br /> *Awful with Blasters<br /> *Often too willing to help<br /> *Lacks a sense of authority<br /> <br /> ===Hobbies, Penchants and Talents===<br /> <br /> Given that it is her primary function in Caliburnus, practice of dance is a common feature of Impetus’ life. Whether it be in private dances for clanmates, dancing in Caliburnus’ Sunset Cantina, or practicing alone, this is evident and useful in her combat, as her deceptive yet graceful liquid form is often too fast for her opponents. It is very rare for her to practice pure combat, but often she will incorporate her whips into her dancing.<br /> <br /> It is a commonly known fact that Impetus’ sex life is an important part of her life. While the vast majority is with her wife, Eludajae, she would think nothing of sleeping with a random man just for the fun of it.<br /> <br /> As a member of the Animal Clan, she is very fond of animals and all nature. Occasionally she will wander into the Ptolomea Blood Forest alone. For her, only true peace can be felt while enveloped in untouched nature, removed from any trace of civilisation.<br /> <br /> Perhaps part of her love for animals, Impetus eats healthily, and is a vegetarian. Trying to keep her body as healthy as possible, she rarely drinks any alcohol, and doesn’t take any kind of drugs. Medicines are futile when compared to her Force healing trances.<br /> <br /> ===Notable Possessions===<br /> <br /> [[Image:The Dragon's Tail 2.gif|147px|left|thumb|The Dragon's Tail]]<br /> ====The Dragon's Tail====<br /> <br /> The Dragon’s Tail is Impetus’ weapon of choice. The Tail is a segmented whip, with each segment containing an Adegan crystal, allowing the metal to heat to incredible temperatures. Through the work of Alchemy, the whip has become as flexible as a leather whip, even the shards themselves seem to bend when the whip is used at high speeds. It is worn around the waist like a belt at all times for easy access.<br /> <br /> After a similar whip to this was destroyed in a duel with RevengeX during the Battle of Antenora, Impetus switched to Acclivis Draco. As she was to become RevengeX’s first personal guard in the Order of the Dragon, he thought it appropriate to have her made a replacement of her favourite weapon, fittingly named ‘The Dragon’s Tail’.<br /> <br /> ====Armoured Robe (Destroyed)====<br /> <br /> Impetus has still kept the same dull white robe given to her by Scept’ine, for both it’s sentimental value and practical use. The robes provide no restriction of movement at all, and have incredibly light bracers that can block a weak blade attack and low powered blasters. Also, the robes feature brown heatproof gloves that allow Impetus to hold The Dragon’s Tail’s segments while they still burn.<br /> <br /> After a 15 year old Impetus, still by the name Tonal’la, was saved from slavery on Tatooine by [[Scept'ine]], he offered her his robes to cover herself up, as she was still dressed in a translucent dancer’s outfit.<br /> <br /> For almost 8 years, the armoured robes served Impetus well, until they were burned off her in the ritual that made her a Daughter of Palpatine. While the robes were also a symbol and reminder of Scept'ine, and of her escape from slavery, the presents she recieved shortly afterwards, the two below, were enough to push the loss out of her mind.<br /> <br /> <br /> ====Cremation====<br /> <br /> Shortly after she was announced as the New daughter of Palpatine, Cremation was made as a gift from Xathia, and was made by her husband, Fionn dan Locut'Hal.<br /> <br /> The five and a half foot long whip, made from Dewback leather, contains a mixture of two highly flammable fuels within. Lashing the whip will spark two electrical wires together, igniting the fuel, which escapes the pores of the leather, igniting the whip.<br /> <br /> The fires burn at 300 degrees, and are easily spreadable. Also, the mix of fuels makes the flames harder to put out than normal flames. Once activated, the whip burns for a constant 3 to 4 minutes, and cannot be put out by it’s owner. The slightest error while using the whip will obviously have disastrous consequences. It can be dual wielded, but using in the off hand is suicide.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Impetus' Collar.jpg|thumb|right|200px|An accessory given to Impetus by Robin Hawk]]<br /> <br /> ====Robin Hawk's Necklace====<br /> <br /> [[Robin Hawk|Robin Hawk's]] Necklace was the second of the gifts given to Impetus after her acquisition of the Palpatine name. Hand forged by Robin herself, the golden accessory consists of seven violet gemstones, and with it's elegant curves, found itself in immediate favour with Impetus, typically sitting behind Kikalekki's Sapphire.<br /> <br /> The gems bear religious significance to Robin, and the rigidity of the center represents Impetus' strength of character.<br /> <br /> ====Crown of the Siordan'a royal family====<br /> <br /> An ancient crown of Siordan'a, passed down through each royal bloodline. The crown is rarely worn, and kept guarded in her quarters on Ryloth. The only occasions in which it is worn is on a return to Siordan'a. The crown itself resembles Impetus’ usual tiara, with the exception of ancient Twi’leki runes carved around it, with a slightly more elegant shape and design.<br /> <br /> The crown was passed down the royal bloodline during the Second Exodus of Siordan'a.<br /> <br /> ====Kikalekki's Sapphire====<br /> <br /> Kikalekki’s Sapphire is Impetus most treasured possession. The cobalt blue stone, said to have been created by Kikalekki herself, is about the size of her palm, and is worn around her neck at all times. For thousands of years it has been passed down through each monarch of Siordan’a.<br /> <br /> For anyone except Impetus to touch the stone is strictly forbidden. After witnessing her cut the arm off a foolish soldier that tried to grab it, Dark Jedi Master Natth a’Niel appreciated how important the protection of the stone was to her, and offered her a backup protection. The Alchemical charms he placed on the stone are complex. For anyone except Impetus and Natth a’Niel, extreme willpower is required to merely lay a hand on the stone, the kind of willpower only a high end Equite or Elder could produce. Impetus has been satisfied with the protection it had been given, but is unaware of the backup enchantment. If anyone is powerful enough to touch the stone, it will produce a defensive Force Choke power, with all the power of Master Natth a’Niel, rendering near-certain death for the stone’s unfortunate victim.<br /> <br /> The sapphire was passed down the royal bloodline during the Second Exodus of Siordan'a.<br /> <br /> ====[[The Echo]]====<br /> <br /> Impetus' personal starfighter, the Echo, was passed down to her by her father. The ship is a Chir’daki, a traditional twi’lek ship, formed from the wings of an X-wing and the body of a TIE. The ship has been modified to include a space for a droid for auto piloting, to compensate for Impetus’ lack of piloting skills. The Scholae Palatinae logo has been painted onto the wings, and an internal hyperdrive for quick travel. The Echo doesn’t get a lot of use these days due to it’s incapability of carrying both Impetus and Ararin Korin.<br /> <br /> The Echo was obtained after the Second Exodus of Siordan’a, and was passed down to Impetus from her father.<br /> <br /> ====DragonFang====<br /> <br /> Designed by the Praetor to the Herald Raven, DragonFang is Impetus' custom saber. Named regarding her position as a Fang of the Dragon, it features a violet blade and a Scholae Palatinae logo near the emitter.<br /> <br /> ===Impetus' Feral Forms===<br /> <br /> With extensive practice in her Clan's power of [[Animalism|Animal Alteration]], Impetus has developed two alternate feral-humanoid forms, pushing the power to it's limit. While only making minor changes to her body, the changes she makes are numerous enough to completely re-form her own appearance. <br /> <br /> This ability has cause Impetus to re-think the way she dresses. A lack of lower underwear, and loose lower robes are a necessity for growing a tail. Due to the acquisition of animal ears, she must discard her tiara before assuming any of these forms. <br /> <br /> ====Twi'Lynx====<br /> <br /> Impetus' first alternate form looks rather like a cross breed between a cat and a twi'lek. The most notable change is her fur, short, light brown fur covers her entire body, including the lekku, which remain at their usual length. Her ears sharpen into points, and her face takes on a more feline shape. Her nails sharpen into lethal sharp claws, her primary weapon in combat, and her spine extends into a long, thin tail.<br /> <br /> In this form, Impetus’ agility is enhanced beyond even her normal levels, extremely little in the galaxy can keep up with the Twi’Lynx sprint. Aside from her agility, Impetus is also slightly stronger than normal in this form, yet she is still no stronger than the average Dark Jedi. However, what she gains in strength she loses in intelligence, her connection to the Force is considerably weakened, and her combat becomes instinctual and feral, as opposed to her typical serene grace. Lightsaber combat is reduced to jumping out of the way of incoming attacks and making wild swipes until the weapon flies out of her hands.<br /> <br /> The first to fight this form was Archpriest [[Scorpius]], in the ACC section of the [[Second Darkness|Rite of Supremacy]]. The immaculate twi'lek spontaneously turned and dived through a blood fountain, becoming Feral Impetus in mid jump. She proceeded, drenched in blood, to maul Scorpius to death with her claws in the winning death post.<br /> <br /> ====Mistress of the Wolf====<br /> <br /> A form devised by Impetus after her induction into [[Shikyo|Shikyo’s]] Wolfpack. In place of her yellow skin is shiny, silver-white fur, and her physical form is a lot more muscular, at the cost of speed and some added weight. The Mistress of the Wolf’s teeth, are far bigger than usual, her mouth and lower skull have to re-form to allow for the canine jaw. Like her other form, Impetus grows claws, but in this form they are bigger and stronger. Since a tail would serve no practical purpose here, it is not grown in this form.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> *Aedile of Acclivis Draco<br /> <br /> *Quaestor of Caliburnus<br /> <br /> *Tetrach of Dragon Seraphim<br /> <br /> *Ward of the South (CSP Character Development Co-ordinator)<br /> <br /> [[Image:BestWikipedianOscar.jpg|thumb|left|250 px|Impetus' Best Wikipedian Oscar]]<br /> <br /> === Achievements ===<br /> <br /> *Led [[House Caliburnus|Caliburnus]] to tie [[Contention]] with the historically stronger force, [[House Acclivis Draco|Acclivis Draco]] (December 06)<br /> <br /> *First Place in Contention (December 06)<br /> <br /> *Named 'Fang of Prophecy', as the first Member of HAD's [[Order of the Dragon]] (January 07)<br /> <br /> *First Place in [http://www.krath.org/csp/DragonQuest/ Missio Draconis], awarded the title 'Hero of the Dragon' (May 07)<br /> <br /> *Awarded a [[Sapphire Blade]] for her efforts in gjw7 (August 07)<br /> <br /> *Named [[Children of Palpatine|Daughter of Palpatine]] (November 07)<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> *Impetus accepted her first Leadership position, Aedile, as a nervous Protector with no experience what so ever<br /> <br /> *Impetus was the first Krath in Caliburnus, and was also named Quaestor on the day of her initiation (February 1st, 2006)<br /> <br /> *'Impetus' was originally a game name, Latin for attack or sudden motion.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine.

Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders.

Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition.

House Ektrosis' history reaches farther back than Taldryan's in all reality. It was from the original House Ektrosis that Clan Taldryan was formed.<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> <br /> The Emperor had many dark ventures, not all of which were revealed to his advisors. Not even his apprentice Darth Vader knew all of what went on in his Master's mind, nor what thoughts, ideas and creations were born there. One such idea was Ektrosis.<br /> <br /> Long before the Rebellion began, the Emperor would regularly vacation on Byss and entertain his closet group of advisors and apprentices. All were brilliant minds who had proven their worth and loyalty to their Master. These beings were all introduced to power and brought into the fold of the Dark Side.<br /> <br /> While none were permitted to reach the level of control and understanding of Palpatine himself, they were indeed powerful entities themselves. They were split into specialties dictated by their own natural abilities. Some were instructed in the combat arts and made into Dark Jedi; others became elite Imperial functionaries who traversed the galaxy enforcing the Emperor's will, and still others were put to work researching and experimenting with the 'Science of Darkness'.<br /> <br /> Ektrosis was an elite group of these researchers who were given the task of creating methods to feed on and drain the life essence of the Empire's citizenry. They all had an innate curiosity about the effects of the Force on the human body and the galaxy as a whole. This made them the vanguard of the Emperor's plan to squeeze the entire galaxy and every being in it into submission.<br /> <br /> The group consisted of scientists who were gifted in the Force, and who were eager to explore as well as experiment with the power and nature of the Force. Ektrosis withdrew into a secret research facility on Byss and worked tirelessly for years, virtually cut off from the rest of the universe. Rumors leaked to the rest of the Emperor's Dark Adepts told of creatures created entirely FROM the Force and beings morphed into atrocious vestiges of their former selves, and finally of techniques for using the Dark Side to drain the essence of beings from their very soul.<br /> <br /> Ektrosis gave years of hard work conducting countless experiments, and devoted their lives to their projects. But in the end all they received was censure. This condemnation stemmed from the fact that somewhere in the course of their learning and understanding, they had crossed a line that even the Emperor would not dare approach. For all their work they were banished far from civilization and all they had ever known. There on the fringes of the Empire they continued their work as best as they could, with sub-standard equipment and improvised materials to aid them. The population near their research facility said that the land surrounding their new forced home began to wither and fade. They said that the only things able to survive were those that had been touched by the Force powers that were being experimented with. The only thing known for certain was that the locals never got anywhere near the area.<br /> <br /> After the defeat of the second Death Star and the death of the Emperor, the Empire struggled to rebuild. Leaders grabbed power only to be assassinated soon thereafter. Warlords and Admirals fought for pieces of the once-might Empire, while the Rebellion ate away at it from the outside. Finally the return of the brilliant Grand Admiral Thrawn brought hope to the remaining Imperial forces. Thrawn wreaked havoc on the newly established 'New Republic', and would have returned the Empire to it's seat of power if he had not been assassinated by his own bodyguard on his flagship.<br /> <br /> Once again the remaining Imperial forces were thrust into civil war. Countless leaders carved out their own fiefdoms throughout the Imperial Remnant's territory. One of these leaders was the self-proclaimed Grand Admiral Ronin, who seized control of an experimental super-ship and formed his own fleet, named The Emperor's Hammer. This fleet carved out its own territory near the Minos Cluster and flourished, eventually bringing the Dark Brotherhood out of hiding to join with them.<br /> <br /> With its numbers quickly growing, the Dark Brotherhood formed Clans and Houses. Spies employed by the Emperor's former researchers reported the existence of this group of Dark Jedi, and Ektrosis returned from the imposed exile, and joined the Brotherhood, forming House Ektrosis. No one knew from whence they had come, or what had kept them on the edge of the galaxy for so long, or even how they had gained their incredible knowledge of the Dark Side; all of these truths are uncertain. The only ones who know the whole truth are the Ektrosis members themselves, and they are reluctant to divulge the knowledge that they possess.<br /> <br /> Ektrosis, now lead by Shaitan, found acceptance in the Dark Brotherhood and flourished. The House gained many new members who were eager to learn its secrets, eventually growing strong enough to evolve into a Clan. Shaitan joined with another powerful Dark Jedi named Jarla to draw up the designs for the future Clan.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still coming back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

Immediately after the [[Second Darkness]] military exercise had concluded, the Yuuzhan Vong attacked a Brotherhood fleet of combined [[Clan]] warships on the edge of the astronomical object known as the [[Shroud]]. <br /> <br /> The initial assault was a crushing defeat for the Brotherhood that splintered the fleet and forced the Clans to flee into the Shroud to fend for themselves. Following the bloodiest battle in the Dark Brotherhood's history, and the subsequent internecine struggle, the [[Dark Council]] was forced to abandon the [[Antei system]] with [[Grand Master]] [[Darth]] [[Sarin]] initiating the [[Braata Option]] and signaling a full retreat.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> ===Origins===<br /> During the Yuuzhan Vong’s conquest of the galaxy, [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Supreme_Overlord Supreme Overlord] [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Shimrra_Jamaane Shimrra Jamaane] learned of a reclusive sect of Dark Siders known as the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. As the Vong offensive progressed towards the core, Shimrra decided it unwise to leave a potential threat to his flank and ordered the cult of [[Dark Jedi]] exterminated.<br /> <br /> Nagto Mel, a proven Commander and veteran of the core-ward campaigns, was assigned to locate and destroy the Brotherhood. When reports of a small naval exercise near [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ziost Ziost] reached Nagto, he dispatched spies who soon confirmed that a large cadre of [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Jeedai Jeedai] apostates was present. Realizing his enemy had gathered the bulk of its fleet in one location; [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Supreme_Commander_%28Yuuzhan_Vong_rank%29 Supreme Commander] Nagto moved his battlegroup to the area and promptly arrayed his forces in ambuscade.<br /> <br /> ===Introduction to Mayhem===<br /> Due to the Yuuzhan Vong’s absence in the Force, neither their approach nor ambush was sensed until it was too late. The Second Darkness [[Rite of Supremacy]], having just concluded, had been intended to prepare the Brotherhood for external threats. Instead, it had served only to cluster the Yuuzhan Vong’s enemy into one predefined kill-zone.<br /> <br /> As the awards ceremony for the RoS concluded, the Vong launched their attack with fusillades of plasma fire, fighter screens, and other [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Biot biots] of warfare the Brotherhood was wholly unprepared for. Much of the Dark Council and [[Clan Summits]] were aboard the ''[[Vae Victus]]'' for the ceremony which added to the chaos of the attack. As leaders scrambled to resume their posts aboard their respective ships, the Vong battlegroup closed with the Brotherhood’s badly formed line and smashed it utterly.<br /> [[Image:Vong Warrior 5.jpg|left|frame|Yuuzhan Vong Warrior]]<br /> As the situation became untenable, Darth Sarin ordered the Clan fleets to jump away to pre-determined rally points in order to regroup. Familiar with infidel tactics, Nagto had ordered all escape vectors seeded with [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Dovin_basal dovin basal] mines. The organic gravity mines prevented the Brotherhood’s escape via [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hyperspace hyperspace], trapping them between the [[Shroud]] and the onslaught of the Vong fleet.<br /> <br /> Despite their common enemy in the Vong, the Clan’s enmity and distrust of one another began to rapidly undermine the defense. [[Consul]] [[Braecen Kaeth]] of [[Scholae Palatinae]] ordered his flagship to fire on and cripple his Arconan rival’s ship, ''[[Eye of the Abyss]]'', to delay the enemy advance so as to preserve his own forces for escape. This act would have grave consequences for the entire Brotherhood.<br /> <br /> Left with no choice, Sarin commanded the fleets to blindly enter the Shroud in hopes that its chaotic vagaries would offer temporary cover from the unrelenting attack. At this time it was also learned that the Scholae Palatinae home-world of [[Judecca]] and the Plagueian system of [[Jusadih System|Jusadih]] had both come under attack from what was believed to be the same enemy they now faced on the edge of the Shroud.<br /> <br /> Realizing the extent of the danger to the [[Final Way]] and their continued existence, Sarin left [[Muz]] Keibatsu, then [[Deputy Grand Master]], in command to attempt an escape to the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Roche_system Roche system] where a secret fleet of new warships had been under construction for some time. It was the Grand Master’s hope to return with an element of this fleet and throw back the attacking forces of the Yuuzhan Vong. Aboard the ''[[Autarch]]'', Sarin managed to evade the ambush and interdictor mines but at the cost of the ''Vae Victus'' and seemingly, his [[Shadow Hand]].<br /> <br /> ===Pride's Due===<br /> Having fled into the Shroud on uncharted vectors, the Clans were scattered and sought desperately to recover from the attack. The natural navigational impediments of the Shroud, coupled with the substantial casualties and damage, impeded the Clans’ reorganization and led to the Brotherhood’s inability to mount a cohesive defensive effort. The resulting chaos and lack of direction from the scattered [[Dark Council]] created an environment for opportunistic Clans to attempt to seize power and settle old scores.<br /> <br /> That there was an aftermath at all following the initial Vong assault (since known as the Battle at Shroud’s Edge) was largely due to the sacrificial holding action of ''Vae Victus'' commanded by Muz Keibatsu Sadow. Carrying out Sarin’s orders, Muz released the remaining Brotherhood forces covering the withdrawal and confronted Nagto Mel’s command ship, ''No Peace'', alone. The Vong [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Miid_ro%27ik miid ro’ik] [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Destroyer_analog destroyer analog] quickly closed with the heavily damaged ''Victus'' and finished the ship by using its [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Dread_weapon dread weapon]. Though all crew were lost, Muz Sadow alone survived. A prisoner of the Yuuzhan Vong, Muz was brutally interrogated by [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Intendant Intendant] Ahm Cr’od while held within the agony of the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Embrace_of_pain Embrace of Pain].<br /> <br /> Resulting from the utterly devastating Vong assault and ensuing confusion was a friendly-fire incident involving Clan [[Arcona]]. Having just retreated into the Shroud and subject to its adverse effects, the Arconan Acclamator ''Thanatos'' misidentified and destroyed the previously lamed ''[[Eye of the Abyss]]''. This event would perpetuate the enmity between Clans and fuel the internecine conflicts that would ultimately loose the Brotherhood the [[Antei system]].<br /> <br /> ===Beyond the Veil===<br /> Concerned at the ease with which the fleets were defeated and realizing that victory would not be forthcoming for the Brotherhood, Consul [[Sith Bloodfyre]] elected to move [[Tarentum]] into a position of maximum benefit no matter the outcome. Tarentum continued repairs to their vessels while using their advanced knowledge of the Shroud to return to [[Antei]] in hopes of gaining control over the planet and commandeering whatever would be left of the Brotherhood.<br /> <br /> Still prisoner of the Vong, Muz Keibatsu gained the means to escape in the form of a wayward [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/TIE TIE] pilot on the outskirts of the Shroud.

Guiding the weapon through the bowels of the alien ship, Muz uses it to kill the Intendant Ahm Cr’od and free himself from the Embrace of Pain.<br /> <br /> Furious with the Deputy Grand Master’s escape and the as-of-yet inability to eradicate the heretics, Nagto Mel ordered the balance of his fleet into the Shroud in earnest to pursue and destroy what remained of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Put on a time-table by Shimrra, Nagto is made painfully aware that if he does not complete his mission soon, the Supreme Overlord himself will come to finish the task and Nagto.

Nagto feels the pressure of Shimrra’s words and refocuses his crew on destroying both Muz and the infidel fleets. [[Clan Plagueis]], on their way out-system, was ambushed by Nagto’s fleet and forced to turn back toward Antei.<br /> <br /> ===Escalation===<br /> At this stage of the war, the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]] had unraveled to the point of several Clans openly attacking one another. Above Antei, the forces of [[Taldryan]] and [[Tarentum]] collided spectacularly to decide the fate of the world below. Old grievances rose to the surface as Clan Naga Sadow saw the opportunity to punish two of its foremost rivals.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still come back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

His fascination with the Dark Side spurred from his studies and recently discovered, latent ability with the Force. Braecen Kunar has acheived the rank of [[Krath Pontifex]] within the Krath Order and currently serves as a Knight Class [[Envoy]] for [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]].<br /> <br /> ==Character History==<br /> <br /> ===A Quiet Beginning===<br /> <br /> A normal upstanding citizen of Corellia, Braecen attended the University upon completion of his core ciriculum; a feat he achieved at a rapid pace, three years ahead of the standard. During his academic progression the young man encountered a varying degree of topics, paradigms and individuals. Each challenge presented him a chance to prove himself to the people he desired respect from: His parents, teachers, friends and himself. And it was at the pinnacle of his success that he realized how truly far from his path he had truly strayed.<br /> <br /> On the day of his graduation from the University, Braecen packed a small bag of his possessions and struck off... alone, in pursuit of something beyond the 'norm'. A basic instict, or urge, forced him to expand his dreams beyond a daily grind. It seemed as if the galaxy itself were forcing him to a larger stage, a destiny of granduer. And so it was... <br /> [[image:Corellia.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Braecen's homeworld of Corellia]]<br /> Using most of his personal credits the young man ventured from home, leaving behind his two, loving parents and a seamless support network, to answer the unknown pull. As chance would have it, the man found his way aboard an outbound freighter to the Outer Rim. The Captain did not approve of Braecen's reasons for leaving, but he offered the young man an Apprenticeship in Trading.<br /> <br /> But the lessons were more encompassing than the monotinous details of rising and falling prices of goods. Their discussions forced them to confront new ideas... and as they proceeded through the mentorship of the younger man, it became apparent a lasting friendship would be forged. And, for that time, it became their existence... enough to appease both men's minds day-in and day-out. But it would not be enough...<br /> <br /> ===Revelation===<br /> <br /> It soon became apparent the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Corellia Corellian] possessed more gifts than his intelligence alone. The Captain, whom now looked upon the young man as a Son, sought to teach him a measure of physical endurance. Each day the young man was forced to complete a rigorous regimine of strenuous activities that would press him beyond his current limits. Upon completion of his work out, he would then be forced to fence, or duel, with his mentor. <br /> <br /> The older, more experienced man was able to best the prodigy on sheer talent at first - allowing the physical exhaustion of his Apprentice to be his focal point. But as the younger man's stamina increased, the wily old man began to sit back on strategy and tactics; employing a skill-set that was more comprehensive than most attendees of the Imperial Academy. After several months their blades began to flash in intricate attacks and defenses, both working for an advantage that would never come. <br /> <br /> It was one such day that would change the fate of both men. In their morning swordplay the two had become locked into another stalemate; neither wanting to admit defeat, they pressed onward. Braecen strained from the physical and mental exertion focused his mind on a single task: moving the older fighter back onto his heels. What the young man had intended and what had happened were vastly different.<br /> <br /> Wanting to use his fighting prowess to defeat the Captain, Braecen strained against a permanent wall in his mind. Using it as support for the task before him... finding his stability from it's presence. Yet, suddenly, on this day, the wall came down - a pool of unknown, misunderstood power rushed through his body and broke free from his mind. The telekinetic strike blasted into the mentor's upper-chest and knocked him to the ground. The action left both men stunned... <br /> <br /> It was then that both understood their part in the larger picture, they were just pawns of what fate had distributed - placed together a short time so that both might learn more about themselves. <br /> <br /> The new power was unnoticed by the crew; however, it was a passenger aboard the ship that felt the change and began to scribe the destiny of the Corellian. The Elder waited until the ship found it's next port before he contacted his liason upon [[Lyspair]] - with informaton and direction the man reboarded the ship and asked for transport to an unknown planet called Antei. The Captain was highly suspicous, but the sum the traveller offered was too rich to turn down. The [[Dark Jedi]] won over... dooming the ship and her crew to a horrendous fate. Save one individual, the Corellian whom had forsaken all that he had for all that he could attain.<br /> <br /> ===The Power of the Dark Side===<br /> [[image:Picture-emblem1.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Crest of the Brotherhood]]<br /> The shuttle safely reached the first moon of the planet [[Antei]]: [[Lyspair]]. However, the vessel and her occupants would never again leave the system. Each of the crew were pushed into slavery; serving as grunts in the fields of then Head Master, [[Spears|Spears Tarentae]]. At first the Elder wished to kill the ship's Captain, but the drain of [[Fifth Great Jedi War]] was too great to kill skilled pilots or captains - thus his fate was left unknown. <br /> <br /> As for the young Corellian... his resistance to the Dark paradigm was futile - his mind's desire to learn reducing his resistance each day, until he became a true Initiate of the Dark Side. Once his ill-conceived notions and idealism were broken down and removed, the naive young lad from Corellia blossomed under the tutelage of the mentors at the [[Shadow Academy]]. With a lust and haste unknown previously, young Braecen satisfied every demand placed before him by his teachers. Only two courses were denied him: The Test of Endurance and The Test of Agility. The young Protector was unsure why he was denied his chance, but believed the Obelisk and Sith denied him due to his acceptance of the Krath doctrine.<br /> <br /> &lt;In progress&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Character Profile==<br /> <br /> ===Physical Description===<br /> <br /> Braecen stands at 5 feet and 11 inches in height. His body is a muscular frame, though not bulging. It is a lean frame that supports his 170 pounds of tense, coiled muscle. He has gathered his strength from continuously training the arts of Dulon as a Guardian to this present day.<br /> <br /> He is also responsible for training lightsaber forms upon the moon of Lyspair, as the acting [[Eclectic Pedagogue]], and authority, on the Lightsaber Basics course. Additionally as a Guard Captain and Gladiator of the [[Grand Master's Royal Guard]], his training in armed combat, combat techniques and leadership is a most valuable asset to him during engagements. Most notably is his skill in the art of Echani, awarded and taught to him by the Commander of the Guard, Obelisk Adept Khobai.<br /> <br /> His gait is that of cockiness, agility and experience. Within his confident gait he radiates a sense of grace; a grace that is truly a deadly agility and speed, like a panther waiting to strike. He is quick in both motion and mind... His speed is unparalled by many, matched by few, greater only to a handful. His intelligence gives him a calm and understanding necessary to take advantage of his foes.<br /> <br /> A shock of light brown hair displaces his hardened features; it's golden highlights cutting through it irregularly. It frames his face and matches that of his goatee, giving him an older appearance to his 22 years. Though it is in his eyes that one truly sees his age and experience. The piercing, ice blue eyes have a way of searching the very depths of one's being. One look into his knowing eyes could unnerve a Journeyman under the rank of Dark Knight.<br /> <br /> ===Custom Weapon===<br /> <br /> '''Sonic War Blade'''<br /> *Awarded the right to carry by [[Dalthid]], via 'Cleaning the Combat Master' <br /> <br /> A weapon of unknown origin, crafted from the compilation of knowledge held by warrior clans throughout the Outer Rim, the Sonic War Blade has no equal. <br /> <br /> Unique in its construction, the serrated blade is comprised of a Cortosis and Durasteel alloy, weaved in the fires of the ancient Sith, which give it uncompromising strength against any other blade, including Lightsabres. Able to parry the Jedi weapon for a vast amount of time, the Sonic War Blade's strength is matched only by its secondary feature. <br /> <br /> Knowing how pivotal a strike can be, the forgers imbedded a Sonic Compression Device (SCD) into the weapon's hilt base. When activated, this device emanates an instant, powerful blast of sound that is capable of &quot;moving air&quot; in a specifically targeted direction. It has shown immense moving power against opponents who's CON is below 21, allowing the user to move passed an opponent's fallen defenses and enact the serrated blade to rip and tear through flesh. <br /> <br /> Due to the nature of the Sonic Compressor, and the need for a warrior to maintain control over their weapon, the Sonic War Blade has also been retro-fitted with a Sonic Resonance Stabilizer (SRS). This stabilizer has an absorption capability that negates the effects of the SCD on the weapon's user, thus, allowing them to maintain positive control of the blade.<br /> <br /> Weaknesses: The SCD requires a regeneration period before it can be used again. The duration is unknown, suffice it to say that many warriors have only used it once in combat which dictates a fairly extended period of time.<br /> <br /> ==DJB Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Achievements===<br /> <br /> '''Scripted'''<br /> <br /> *Primary author of the Plagueis: Planetary Description<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: [[Prodigy of Plagueis]]<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: DJK+ Promotion Guide<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Roles of the Summit&quot;<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Battle Team Positions&quot; Proposal<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Merit Program<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Scrolls of Sidious<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Dark Paladin<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Consul's Coven<br /> *Primary author of the Scholae Palatinae: Prospectus<br /> <br /> '''Participation'''<br /> <br /> *[[Independence Games]] 2005<br /> **3rd Overall<br /> **Led Clan (Top point scorer &amp; PCON) to 1st Overall<br /> *[[Seventh Great Jedi War]]<br /> **Led Clan (PCON) to 4th Overall<br /> <br /> ===Leadership Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Proconsul, [[Clan Exar Kun]]<br /> *Proconsul, [[Clan Plagueis]]<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Consul, [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]]<br /> <br /> ===Other Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, IRC Basics<br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, Lightsaber Basics<br /> *Envoy, House Byss<br /> *Envoy, House Exar Kun<br /> *Knight Class Envoy, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Knight Adjutant of the Brotherhood<br /> *Guard Captain, Grand Master's Royal Guard<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> <br /> *Braecen originally found interest in Star Wars through the novel &quot;X-Wing:Rogue Squadron&quot; by Michael A.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a blade of Obelisk might, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Templar [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> Ada grew up with Prajna, and both always secretly watched the other from a distance. Prajna left the town much to young for anything to happen, but still he has caught himself in daydreams with her. Now that Ada has come with the Entourage, the two have begun to act on their past.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still come back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] during the [[Reclamation of Judecca]].<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes Buddhism meaning wisdom or understanding.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Seirr and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Seirr had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. Only later did I realize it was my natural connection of the Force that gave me such speed. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly like a sponge. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. I yearned to prove my superiority to anyone I crossed. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force: another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster, stronger, and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a Dark Jedi Knight, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Dark Jedi Knight [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still come back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is the second person in Brotherhood history to be granted the Dark Maven- Writing (DMW).<br /> <br /> Prajna was named Third Reclamer of Scholae and Liberator of Caina for his efforts in eradicating the Yuuzhan Vong from the [[Cocytus System]] in the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]].<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from one of the three categories of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_Eightfold_Path|Buddhist Eightfold Path].

<p>Prajna: /* Past Great Jedi Wars */</p> <hr /> <div>{{revise}}<br /> {{quality}}<br /> <br /> A [[Great Jedi War]] (GJW) is a level of [[Vendetta]] or club-wide competition. It is comprised of many smaller competitions, unified by a central storyline.At this level, Clans battle for rewards decided upon by the Dark Council.<br /> <br /> ==Past Great Jedi Wars==<br /> <br /> There have been eight Great Jedi Wars so far in the history of the Dark Brotherhood.<br /> <br /> ===The [[First Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The First Great Jedi War was a violent struggle between the Clans and Houses that broke out during the first reign of the Dark Lord Khyron.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Second Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> Known as Crystal Dreams, the Second Great Jedi War was sparked when the Clans received word of a mysterious artifact and signs pointed to having been stolen by one of the Clans.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Third Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The third GJW was run under the reign of GM Zoraan by DGM Torquemada. Most of the details have been lost to history. Due to the lack of information it was previously confused with the vendetta run by GM Chi-Long, &quot;The Quest&quot;.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Fourth Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The fourth GJW (&quot;The Quest&quot;) was hosted by GM Chi-Long. Its title derives from a powerful artifact of body armor which was the basis of the quest. It was previously confused with GJW3 due to the lack of details of that GJW and &quot;The Quest&quot; being documented simply as a &quot;Vendetta&quot; at the time of its release due to the term &quot;Great Jedi War&quot; having fallen out of fashion. The change was corrected in September 2007 and the numbering of the later GJWs updated to reflect this.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Fifth Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The fifth GJW was prepared and hosted by [[Mairin Astoris]] in early 2003, just prior to the split. It remained unfinished after Mairin was demoted by the Emperor's Hammer High Court of Inquisitors and the results are lost.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Sixth Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The Sixth Great Jedi War was prepared by [[Trevarus Caerick]] and [[Jac Cotelin]]. It ran from June to October 2004. Its storyline revolved around an &quot;hive mind&quot; infecting the Brotherhood members. The source was in the end discovered to be related to the Star Chamber.<br /> <br /> ===The [[Seventh Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The seventh GJW (&quot;The Enemy Within&quot;) took place from June 14 to August 30, 2006. Building from a mystery situation in which Clans seemed to randomly attack other Clans, even their allies, the plot unfolded to expose the Grand Master as having been split into two by a failed rite executed on him by an unknown source. Loyalties were questioned as the Brotherhood members decided their sides and ultimately split the Brotherhood in two. The warring factions were only stopped from mutual annihilation when Jac Cotelin managed to defeat his other self in a climactic lightsaber duel and a Force Storm. The war comprised 39 individual events.<br /> <br /> This war was won by [[Clan Taldryan]] by a narrow margin in front of [[Clan Naga Sadow]]. The individual MVP (overall winner) category offered for the first time in a Great Jedi War was won by [[Lucius d'Tana]].<br /> <br /> ===The [[Eighth Great Jedi War]]===<br /> <br /> The eighth GJW occured during the summer of 2007 and dealt with the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of Antei. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Events]]</div>

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Maine and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Maine had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly, like a sponge with water. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire, all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster and stronger and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a Dark Jedi Knight, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Dark Jedi Knight [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his [Entourage, who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Maine and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Maine had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly, like a sponge with water. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire, all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster and stronger and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a Dark Jedi Knight, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Dark Jedi Knight [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]].

His fascination with the Dark Side spurred from his studies and recently discovered, latent ability with the Force. Braecen Kunar has acheived the rank of Pontifex within the Krath Order and currently serves as a Knight Class Envoy for [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]].<br /> <br /> ==Character History==<br /> <br /> ===A Quiet Beginning===<br /> <br /> A normal upstanding citizen of Corellia, Braecen attended the University upon completion of his core ciriculum; a feat he achieved at a rapid pace, three years ahead of the standard. During his academic progression the young man encountered a varying degree of topics, paradigms and individuals. Each challenge presented him a chance to prove himself to the people he desired respect from: His parents, teachers, friends and himself. And it was at the pinnacle of his success that he realized how truly far from his path he had truly strayed.<br /> <br /> On the day of his graduation from the University, Braecen packed a small bag of his possessions and struck off... alone, in pursuit of something beyond the 'norm'. A basic instict, or urge, forced him to expand his dreams beyond a daily grind. It seemed as if the galaxy itself were forcing him to a larger stage, a destiny of granduer. And so it was... <br /> <br /> Using most of his personal credits the young man ventured from home, leaving behind his two, loving parents and a seamless support network, to answer the unknown pull. As chance would have it, the man found his way aboard an outbound freighter to the Outer Rim. The Captain did not approve of Braecen's reasons for leaving, but he offered the young man an Apprenticeship in Trading.<br /> <br /> But the lessons were more encompassing than the monotinous details of rising and falling prices of goods. Their discussions forced them to confront new ideas... and as they proceeded through the mentorship of the younger man, it became apparent a lasting friendship would be forged. And, for that time, it became their existence... enough to appease both men's minds day-in and day-out. But it would not be enough...<br /> <br /> ===Revelation===<br /> <br /> It soon became apparent the Corellian possessed more gifts than his intelligence alone. The Captain, whom now looked upon the young man as a Son, sought to teach him a measure of physical endurance. Each day the young man was forced to complete a rigorous regimine of strenuous activities that would press him beyond his current limits. Upon completion of his work out, he would then be forced to fence, or duel, with his mentor. <br /> <br /> The older, more experienced man was able to best the prodigy on sheer talent at first - allowing the physical exhaustion of his Apprentice to be his focal point. But as the younger man's stamina increased, the wily old man began to sit back on strategy and tactics; employing a skill-set that was more comprehensive than most attendees of the Imperial Academy. After several months their blades began to flash in intricate attacks and defenses, both working for an advantage that would never come. <br /> <br /> It was one such day that would change the fate of both men. In their morning swordplay the two had become locked into another stalemate; neither wanting to admit defeat, they pressed onward. Braecen strained from the physical and mental exertion focused his mind on a single task: moving the older fighter back onto his heels. What the young man had intended and what had happened were vastly different.<br /> <br /> Wanting to use his fighting prowess to defeat the Captain, Braecen strained against a permanent wall in his mind. Using it as support for the task before him... finding his stability from it's presence. Yet, suddenly, on this day, the wall came down - a pool of unknown, misunderstood power rushed through his body and broke free from his mind. The telekinetic strike blasted into the mentor's upper-chest and knocked him to the ground. The action left both men stunned... <br /> <br /> It was then that both understood their part in the larger picture, they were just pawns of what fate had distributed - placed together a short time so that both might learn more about themselves. <br /> <br /> The new power was unnoticed by the crew; however, it was a passenger aboard the ship that felt the change and began to scribe the destiny of the Corellian. The Elder waited until the ship found it's next port before he contacted his liason upon Lyspair - with informaton and direction the man reboarded the ship and asked for transport to an unknown planet called Antei. The Captain was highly suspicous, but the sum the traveller offered was too rich to turn down. The Dark Jedi won over... dooming the ship and her crew to a horrendous fate. Save one individual, the Corellian whom had forsaken all that he had for all that he could attain.<br /> <br /> ===The Power of the Dark Side===<br /> <br /> The shuttle safely reached the first moon of the planet Antei: [[Lyspair|Lyspair]]. However, the vessel and her occupants would never again leave the system. Each of the crew were pushed into slavery; serving as grunts in the fields of then Head Master, [[Spears|Spears Tarentae]]. At first the Elder wished to kill the ship's Captain, but the drain of Fifth Great Jedi War was too great to kill skilled pilots or captains - thus his fate was left unknown. <br /> <br /> As for the young Corellian... his resistance to the Dark paradigm was futile - his mind's desire to learn reducing his resistance each day, until he became a true Initiate of the Dark Side. Once his ill-conceived notions and idealism were broken down and removed, the naive young lad from Corellia blossomed under the tutelage of the mentors at the Shadow Academy. With a lust and haste unknown previously, young Braecen satisfied every demand placed before him by his teachers. Only two courses were denied him: The Test of Endurance and The Test of Agility. The young Protector was unsure why he was denied his chance, but believed the Obelisk and Sith denied him due to his acceptance of the Krath doctrine.<br /> <br /> &lt;In progress&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Character Profile==<br /> <br /> ===Physical Description===<br /> <br /> Braecen stands at 5 feet and 11 inches in height. His body is a muscular frame, though not bulging. It is a lean frame that supports his 170 pounds of tense, coiled muscle. He has gathered his strength from continuously training the arts of Dulon as a Guardian to this present day.<br /> <br /> He is also responsible for training lightsaber forms upon the moon of Lyspair, as the acting Eclectic Pedagogue, and authority, on the Lightsaber Basics course. Additionally as a Guard Captain and Gladiator of the Grand Master's Royal Guard, his training in armed combat, combat techniques and leadership is a most valuable asset to him during engagements. Most notably is his skill in the art of Echani, awarded and taught to him by the Commander of the Guard, Obelisk Adept Khobai.<br /> <br /> His gait is that of cockiness, agility and experience. Within his confident gait he radiates a sense of grace; a grace that is truly a deadly agility and speed, like a panther waiting to strike. He is quick in both motion and mind... His speed is unparalled by many, matched by few, greater only to a handful. His intelligence gives him a calm and understanding necessary to take advantage of his foes.<br /> <br /> A shock of light brown hair displaces his hardened features; it's golden highlights cutting through it irregularly. It frames his face and matches that of his goatee, giving him an older appearance to his 22 years. Though it is in his eyes that one truly sees his age and experience. The piercing, ice blue eyes have a way of searching the very depths of one's being. One look into his knowing eyes could unnerve a Journeyman under the rank of Dark Knight.<br /> <br /> ===Custom Weapon===<br /> <br /> '''Sonic War Blade'''<br /> *Awarded the right to carry by Dalthid, via 'Cleaning the Combat Master' <br /> <br /> A weapon of unknown origin, crafted from the compilation of knowledge held by warrior clans throughout the Outer Rim, the Sonic War Blade has no equal. <br /> <br /> Unique in its construction, the serrated blade is comprised of a Cortosis and Durasteel alloy, weaved in the fires of the ancient Sith, which give it uncompromising strength against any other blade, including Lightsabres. Able to parry the Jedi weapon for a vast amount of time, the Sonic War Blade's strength is matched only by its secondary feature. <br /> <br /> Knowing how pivotal a strike can be, the forgers imbedded a Sonic Compression Device (SCD) into the weapon's hilt base. When activated, this device emanates an instant, powerful blast of sound that is capable of &quot;moving air&quot; in a specifically targeted direction. It has shown immense moving power against opponents who's CON is below 21, allowing the user to move passed an opponent's fallen defenses and enact the serrated blade to rip and tear through flesh. <br /> <br /> Due to the nature of the Sonic Compressor, and the need for a warrior to maintain control over their weapon, the Sonic War Blade has also been retro-fitted with a Sonic Resonance Stabilizer (SRS). This stabilizer has an absorption capability that negates the effects of the SCD on the weapon's user, thus, allowing them to maintain positive control of the blade.<br /> <br /> Weaknesses: The SCD requires a regeneration period before it can be used again. The duration is unknown, suffice it to say that many warriors have only used it once in combat which dictates a fairly extended period of time.<br /> <br /> ==DJB Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Achievements===<br /> <br /> '''Scripted'''<br /> <br /> *Primary author of the Plagueis: Planetary Description<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: Prodigy of Plagueis<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: DJK+ Promotion Guide<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Roles of the Summit&quot;<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Battle Team Positions&quot; Proposal<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Merit Program<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Scrolls of Sidious<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Dark Paladin<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Consul's Coven<br /> *Primary author of the Scholae Palatinae: Prospectus<br /> <br /> '''Participation'''<br /> <br /> *Independence Games 2005<br /> **3rd Overall<br /> **Led Clan (Top point scorer &amp; PCON) to 1st Overall<br /> *Sixth Great Jedi War<br /> **Led Clan (PCON) to 4th Overall<br /> <br /> ===Leadership Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Proconsul, Clan Exar Kun<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Plagueis<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Consul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> <br /> ===Other Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, IRC Basics<br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, Lightsaber Basics<br /> *Envoy, House Byss<br /> *Envoy, House Exar Kun<br /> *Knight Class Envoy, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Knight Adjutant of the Brotherhood<br /> *Guard Captain, Grand Master's Royal Guard<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> <br /> *Braecen originally found interest in Star Wars through the novel &quot;X-Wing:Rogue Squadron&quot; by Michael A.

The Captain, whom now looked upon the young man as a Son, sought to teach him a measure of physical endurance. Each day the young man was forced to complete a rigorous regimine of strenuous activities that would press him beyond his current limits. Upon completion of his work out, he would then be forced to fence, or duel, with his mentor. <br /> <br /> The older, more experienced man was able to best the prodigy on sheer talent at first - allowing the physical exhaustion of his Apprentice to be his focal point. But as the younger man's stamina increased, the wily old man began to sit back on strategy and tactics; employing a skill-set that was more comprehensive than most attendees of the Imperial Academy.

In their morning swordplay the two had become locked into another stalemate; neither wanting to admit defeat, they pressed onward. Braecen strained from the physical and mental exertion focused his mind on a single task: moving the older fighter back onto his heels. What the young man had intended and what had happened were vastly different.<br /> <br /> Wanting to use his fighting prowess to defeat the Captain, Braecen strained against a permanent wall in his mind. Using it as support for the task before him... finding his stability from it's presence. Yet, suddenly, on this day, the wall came down - a pool of unknown, misunderstood power rushed through his body and broke free from his mind. The telekinetic strike blasted into the mentor's upper-chest and knocked him to the ground. The action left both men stunned... <br /> <br /> It was then that both understood their part in the larger picture, they were just pawns of what fate had distributed - placed together a short time so that both might learn more about themselves. <br /> <br /> The new power was unnoticed by the crew; however, it was a passenger aboard the ship that felt the change and began to scribe the destiny of the Corellian. The Elder waited until the ship found it's next port before he contacted his liason upon Lyspair - with informaton and direction the man reboarded the ship and asked for transport to an unknown planet called Antei. The Captain was highly suspicous, but the sum the traveller offered was too rich to turn down. The Dark Jedi won over... dooming the ship and her crew to a horrendous fate. Save one individual, the Corellian whom had forsaken all that he had for all that he could attain.<br /> <br /> ===The Power of the Dark Side===<br /> <br /> The shuttle safely reached the first moon of the planet Antei: [[Lyspair]]. However, the vessel and her occupants would never again leave the system. Each of the crew were pushed into slavery; serving as grunts in the fields of then Head Master, Spears Tarentae. At first the Elder wished to kill the ship's Captain, but the drain of Fifth Great Jedi War was too great to kill skilled pilots or captains - thus his fate was left unknown. <br /> <br /> As for the young Corellian... his resistance to the Dark paradigm was futile - his mind's desire to learn reducing his resistance each day, until he became a true Initiate of the Dark Side. Once his ill-conceived notions and idealism were broken down and removed, the naive young lad from Corellia blossomed under the tutelage of the mentors at the Shadow Academy. With a lust and haste unknown previously, young Braecen satisfied every demand placed before him by his teachers. Only two courses were denied him: The Test of Endurance and The Test of Agility. The young Protector was unsure why he was denied his chance, but believed the Obelisk and Sith denied him due to his acceptance of the Krath doctrine.<br /> <br /> &lt;In progress&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Character Profile==<br /> <br /> ===Physical Description===<br /> <br /> Braecen stands at 5 feet and 11 inches in height. His body is a muscular frame, though not bulging. It is a lean frame that supports his 170 pounds of tense, coiled muscle. He has gathered his strength from continuously training the arts of Dulon as a Guardian to this present day.<br /> <br /> He is also responsible for training lightsaber forms upon the moon of Lyspair, as the acting Eclectic Pedagogue, and authority, on the Lightsaber Basics course. Additionally as a Guard Captain and Gladiator of the Grand Master's Royal Guard, his training in armed combat, combat techniques and leadership is a most valuable asset to him during engagements. Most notably is his skill in the art of Echani, awarded and taught to him by the Commander of the Guard, Obelisk Adept Khobai.<br /> <br /> His gait is that of cockiness, agility and experience. Within his confident gait he radiates a sense of grace; a grace that is truly a deadly agility and speed, like a panther waiting to strike. He is quick in both motion and mind... His speed is unparalled by many, matched by few, greater only to a handful. His intelligence gives him a calm and understanding necessary to take advantage of his foes.<br /> <br /> A shock of light brown hair displaces his hardened features; it's golden highlights cutting through it irregularly. It frames his face and matches that of his goatee, giving him an older appearance to his 22 years. Though it is in his eyes that one truly sees his age and experience. The piercing, ice blue eyes have a way of searching the very depths of one's being. One look into his knowing eyes could unnerve a Journeyman under the rank of Dark Knight.<br /> <br /> ===Custom Weapon===<br /> <br /> '''Sonic War Blade'''<br /> *Awarded the right to carry by Dalthid, via 'Cleaning the Combat Master' <br /> <br /> A weapon of unknown origin, crafted from the compilation of knowledge held by warrior clans throughout the Outer Rim, the Sonic War Blade has no equal. <br /> <br /> Unique in its construction, the serrated blade is comprised of a Cortosis and Durasteel alloy, weaved in the fires of the ancient Sith, which give it uncompromising strength against any other blade, including Lightsabres. Able to parry the Jedi weapon for a vast amount of time, the Sonic War Blade's strength is matched only by its secondary feature. <br /> <br /> Knowing how pivotal a strike can be, the forgers imbedded a Sonic Compression Device (SCD) into the weapon's hilt base. When activated, this device emanates an instant, powerful blast of sound that is capable of &quot;moving air&quot; in a specifically targeted direction. It has shown immense moving power against opponents who's CON is below 21, allowing the user to move passed an opponent's fallen defenses and enact the serrated blade to rip and tear through flesh. <br /> <br /> Due to the nature of the Sonic Compressor, and the need for a warrior to maintain control over their weapon, the Sonic War Blade has also been retro-fitted with a Sonic Resonance Stabilizer (SRS). This stabilizer has an absorption capability that negates the effects of the SCD on the weapon's user, thus, allowing them to maintain positive control of the blade.<br /> <br /> Weaknesses: The SCD requires a regeneration period before it can be used again. The duration is unknown, suffice it to say that many warriors have only used it once in combat which dictates a fairly extended period of time.<br /> <br /> ==DJB Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Achievements===<br /> <br /> '''Scripted'''<br /> <br /> *Primary author of the Plagueis: Planetary Description<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: Prodigy of Plagueis<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: DJK+ Promotion Guide<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Roles of the Summit&quot;<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Battle Team Positions&quot; Proposal<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Merit Program<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Scrolls of Sidious<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Dark Paladin<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Consul's Coven<br /> *Primary author of the Scholae Palatinae: Prospectus<br /> <br /> '''Participation'''<br /> <br /> *Independence Games 2005<br /> **3rd Overall<br /> **Led Clan (Top point scorer &amp; PCON) to 1st Overall<br /> *Sixth Great Jedi War<br /> **Led Clan (PCON) to 4th Overall<br /> <br /> ===Leadership Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Proconsul, Clan Exar Kun<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Plagueis<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Consul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> <br /> ===Other Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, IRC Basics<br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, Lightsaber Basics<br /> *Envoy, House Byss<br /> *Envoy, House Exar Kun<br /> *Knight Class Envoy, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Knight Adjutant of the Brotherhood<br /> *Guard Captain, Grand Master's Royal Guard<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> <br /> *Braecen originally found interest in Star Wars through the novel &quot;X-Wing:Rogue Squadron&quot; by Michael A.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his [[Prajna's Entourage|Entourage]], who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> === Fear ===<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Maine and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Maine had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly, like a sponge with water. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire, all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> === Anger ===<br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster and stronger and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> === Hate ===<br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a Dark Jedi Knight, a wielder of the Force and a soldier of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> ==The Entourage==<br /> <br /> {{Organization infobox<br /> |BG1= blue<br /> |BG2=<br /> |name= The Entourage<br /> |image=<br /> |founder= Kyn-Nix `Pal<br /> |leader= [[Prajna Berkana]]<br /> |members= Kyn-Nix `Pal, Que Korrat, Qi Korrat, Ada Seirr<br /> |headquarters= <br /> |locations= <br /> |formed= <br /> |founded= 27 ABY<br /> |reorganized=<br /> |fragmented=<br /> |dissolved=<br /> |restored=<br /> |affiliation= Cerea, [[House Dorimad Sol]]<br /> |era= [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood Era]]<br /> }}<br /> Four Cerean females often accompany the Dark Jedi Knight [[Prajna|Prajna Berkana]]. They are followers of a special Force Power cult Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> === Member Discriptions ===<br /> <br /> ==== Kyn-Nix `Pal ====<br /> Sister of the Jedi Padawan &quot;Tap&quot;. Eldest of the Entourage. One of the original practiciners of Ner Yan. Physically strong, and wise from experience. Healer and leader.<br /> <br /> ==== Que Korrat | Qi Korrat ====<br /> Twin daughters of the late Jedi Hunter Del Korrat, servant of the Emperor. Look identical, except Qi has a single red eye which is blind. Exotic and wild for Cereans. Fast. Warriors more than force users. <br /> <br /> ==== Ada Seirr ====<br /> Cousin of the former Jedi Watchman, General and Jedi Knight Tarr Seirr. Prajna's favorite female, and by far the most beautiful. A moderate Cerean, though still more traditional than most anyone that would find themselves in the brotherhood. Strongest in the force of the four women.<br /> <br /> === History ===<br /> Cerea has a long tradition of remaining neutral in war. Still some members of the race have ventured out, eager to explore. However, these few were pulled away by a most violent event.<br /> <br /> ==== Ner Yan ====<br /> While much of the ways of the Force still remain a mystery, it is thought the conjunction of two brains has increased the likelyhood of Cereans to feel the Force. However, to be able to control this bond alone is even more rare than in humans. Once in a group, then the strength of many becomes stronger than any part, and the Force can do anything. When several Cereans open their mind in meditation, they form a mind chord that creates a powerful link to the Force. This is the basics of Ner Yan.<br /> <br /> It is not known exactly when it was discovered, as Ner Yan was always a secret society of Cereans. The cult was first brought to use by either the Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi or his successor, Jedi Watchman Tarr Seirr during the clone wars to help protect the planet while the Generals were fighting against the Confederacy. Kyn-Nix soon took charge of the cult, as a representitive to the Council of Elders. She did so upon the death of her Jedi brother during the Battle of Merson.<br /> <br /> ==== Defense of Cerea ====<br /> The Council of Elders knew of the threat of the Alien Invasion from the Yuuzhan Vong through loose correspondance with the New Republic. Upon failing to contact the Fallen Guardian Berkana, they turned to Kyn-Nix. She knew that no power of the Force could protect the planet. Instead, she contracted a plan that involved moving a small Ner Yan away that would distract the Vong invaders. She selected four of the greatest practiciners of the art of defense and took them in a small ship. <br /> <br /> The members of the flight group succeeded in hiding the location of the isolated system from the Aliens. However, the group were captured, and given as prisoners to a high ranking Priestess. She studied them in hopes to learn more about Jedi and the disconnected Force.<br /> <br /> ==== Aftermath and Entourage ====<br /> The Priestess was in the battlegroup that devasted the Dark Brotherhood. It was only after the initial assault she discovered an ancient Temple on Juddeca. Here she held her prisoners in torturous cages.<br /> <br /> On a rade to reclaim the temple and world that was home to Clan Scholae Palatinae, Prajna Berkana found the Cerean women. He killed the Priestess with help from the Ner Yan of the group. It was not done before the Priestess managed to kill one of the members of the Defense Flight, Hinder-Joliet.<br /> <br /> With Cerea considered safe, the Entourage has joined up to help and aide Prajna. He works with them in efforts to discover new ways to use the new Force Power with his own heightened control. The Entourage also keeps in contactwith the Council of Elders, in hopes that if Cerea ever calls, they can lure the true Guardian of the ''Pearl'' back home to her rescue.<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still come back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is currently working on his Darth Maven in Writing.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from one of the three categories of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_Eightfold_Path|Buddhist Eightfold Path]. Berkana comes from the House Berkana of the Lost Order which Prajna was a part of in the [http://www.starvipers.org| Star Vipers].<br /> <br /> [[Category: DJB Characters]]<br /> [[Category:NPCs]]</div>

His fascination with the Dark Side spurred from his studies and recently discovered, latent ability with the Force. Braecen Kunar has acheived the rank of Pontifex within the Krath Order and currently serves as a Knight Class Envoy for [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]].<br /> <br /> ==Character History==<br /> <br /> ===A Quiet Beginning===<br /> <br /> A normal upstanding citizen of Corellia, Braecen attended the University upon completion of his core ciriculum; a feat he achieved at a rapid pace, three years ahead of the standard. During his academic progression the young man encountered a varying degree of topics, paradigms and individuals. Each challenge presented him a chance to prove himself to the people he desired respect from: His parents, teachers, friends and himself. And it was at the pinnacle of his success that he realized how truly far from his path he had truly strayed.<br /> <br /> On the day of his graduation from the University, Braecen packed a small bag of his possessions and struck off... alone, in pursuit of something beyond the 'norm'. A basic instict, or urge, forced him to expand his dreams beyond a daily grind. It seemed as if the galaxy itself were forcing him to a larger stage, a destiny of granduer. And so it was... <br /> <br /> Using most of his personal credits the young man ventured from home, leaving behind his two, loving parents and a seamless support network, to answer the unknown pull. As chance would have it, the man found his way aboard an outbound freighter to the Outer Rim. The Captain did not approve of Braecen's reasons for leaving, but he offered the young man an Apprenticeship in Trading.<br /> <br /> But the lessons were more encompassing than the monotinous details of rising and falling prices of goods. Their discussions forced them to confront new ideas... and as they proceeded through the mentorship of the younger man, it became apparent a lasting friendship would be forged. And, for that time, it became their existence... enough to appease both men's minds day-in and day-out. But it would not be enough...<br /> <br /> ===Revelation===<br /> <br /> It soon became apparent the Corellian possessed more gifts than his intelligence alone. The Captain, whom now looked upon the young man as a Son, sought to teach him a measure of physical endurance. Each day the young man was forced to complete a rigorous regimine of strenuous activities that would press him beyond his current limits. Upon completion of his work out, he would then be forced to fence, or duel, with his mentor. <br /> <br /> The older, more experienced man was able to best the prodigy on sheer talent at first - allowing the physical exhaustion of his Apprentice to be his focal point. But as the younger man's stamina increased, the wily old man began to sit back on strategy and tactics; employing a skill-set that was more comprehensive than most attendees of the Imperial Academy. After several months their blades began to flash in intricate attacks and defenses, both working for an advantage that would never come. <br /> <br /> It was one such day that would change the fate of both men. In their morning swordplay the two had become locked into another stalemate; neither wanting to admit defeat, they pressed onward. Braecen strained from the physical and mental exertion focused his mind on a single task: moving the older fighter back onto his heels. What the young man had intended and what had happened were vastly different.<br /> <br /> Wanting to use his fighting prowess to defeat the Captain, Braecen strained against a permanent wall in his mind. Using it as support for the task before him... finding his stability from it's presence. Yet, suddenly, on this day, the wall came down - a pool of unknown, misunderstood power rushed through his body and broke free from his mind. The telekinetic strike blasted into the mentor's upper-chest and knocked him to the ground. The action left both men stunned... <br /> <br /> It was then that both understood their part in the larger picture, they were just pawns of what fate had distributed - placed together a short time so that both might learn more about themselves. <br /> <br /> The new power was unnoticed by the crew; however, it was a passenger aboard the ship that felt the change and began to scribe the destiny of the Corellian. The Elder waited until the ship found it's next port before he contacted his liason upon Lyspair - with informaton and direction the man reboarded the ship and asked for transport to an unknown planet called Antei. The Captain was highly suspicous, but the sum the traveller offered was too rich to turn down. The Dark Jedi won over... dooming the ship and her crew to a horrendous fate. Save one individual, the Corellian whom had forsaken all that he had for all that he could attain.<br /> <br /> ===The Power of the Dark Side===<br /> <br /> The shuttle safely reached the first moon of the planet Antei: Lyspair. However, the vessel and her occupants would never again leave the system. Each of the crew were pushed into slavery; serving as grunts in the fields of then Head Master, Spears Tarentae. At first the Elder wished to kill the ship's Captain, but the drain of Fifth Great Jedi War was too great to kill skilled pilots or captains - thus his fate was left unknown. <br /> <br /> As for the young Corellian... his resistance to the Dark paradigm was futile - his mind's desire to learn reducing his resistance each day, until he became a true Initiate of the Dark Side. Once his ill-conceived notions and idealism were broken down and removed, the naive young lad from Corellia blossomed under the tutelage of the mentors at the Shadow Academy. With a lust and haste unknown previously, young Braecen satisfied every demand placed before him by his teachers. Only two courses were denied him: The Test of Endurance and The Test of Agility. The young Protector was unsure why he was denied his chance, but believed the Obelisk and Sith denied him due to his acceptance of the Krath doctrine.<br /> <br /> &lt;In progress&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Character Profile==<br /> <br /> ===Physical Description===<br /> <br /> Braecen stands at 5 feet and 11 inches in height. His body is a muscular frame, though not bulging. It is a lean frame that supports his 170 pounds of tense, coiled muscle. He has gathered his strength from continuously training the arts of Dulon as a Guardian to this present day.<br /> <br /> He is also responsible for training lightsaber forms upon the moon of Lyspair, as the acting Eclectic Pedagogue, and authority, on the Lightsaber Basics course. Additionally as a Guard Captain and Gladiator of the Grand Master's Royal Guard, his training in armed combat, combat techniques and leadership is a most valuable asset to him during engagements. Most notably is his skill in the art of Echani, awarded and taught to him by the Commander of the Guard, Obelisk Adept Khobai.<br /> <br /> His gait is that of cockiness, agility and experience. Within his confident gait he radiates a sense of grace; a grace that is truly a deadly agility and speed, like a panther waiting to strike. He is quick in both motion and mind... His speed is unparalled by many, matched by few, greater only to a handful. His intelligence gives him a calm and understanding necessary to take advantage of his foes.<br /> <br /> A shock of light brown hair displaces his hardened features; it's golden highlights cutting through it irregularly. It frames his face and matches that of his goatee, giving him an older appearance to his 22 years. Though it is in his eyes that one truly sees his age and experience. The piercing, ice blue eyes have a way of searching the very depths of one's being. One look into his knowing eyes could unnerve a Journeyman under the rank of Dark Knight.<br /> <br /> ===Custom Weapon===<br /> <br /> '''Sonic War Blade'''<br /> *Awarded the right to carry by Dalthid, via 'Cleaning the Combat Master' <br /> <br /> A weapon of unknown origin, crafted from the compilation of knowledge held by warrior clans throughout the Outer Rim, the Sonic War Blade has no equal. <br /> <br /> Unique in its construction, the serrated blade is comprised of a Cortosis and Durasteel alloy, weaved in the fires of the ancient Sith, which give it uncompromising strength against any other blade, including Lightsabres. Able to parry the Jedi weapon for a vast amount of time, the Sonic War Blade's strength is matched only by its secondary feature. <br /> <br /> Knowing how pivotal a strike can be, the forgers imbedded a Sonic Compression Device (SCD) into the weapon's hilt base. When activated, this device emanates an instant, powerful blast of sound that is capable of &quot;moving air&quot; in a specifically targeted direction. It has shown immense moving power against opponents who's CON is below 21, allowing the user to move passed an opponent's fallen defenses and enact the serrated blade to rip and tear through flesh. <br /> <br /> Due to the nature of the Sonic Compressor, and the need for a warrior to maintain control over their weapon, the Sonic War Blade has also been retro-fitted with a Sonic Resonance Stabilizer (SRS). This stabilizer has an absorption capability that negates the effects of the SCD on the weapon's user, thus, allowing them to maintain positive control of the blade.<br /> <br /> Weaknesses: The SCD requires a regeneration period before it can be used again. The duration is unknown, suffice it to say that many warriors have only used it once in combat which dictates a fairly extended period of time.<br /> <br /> ==DJB Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Achievements===<br /> <br /> '''Scripted'''<br /> <br /> *Primary author of the Plagueis: Planetary Description<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: Prodigy of Plagueis<br /> *Author of the Plagueis: DJK+ Promotion Guide<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Roles of the Summit&quot;<br /> *Co-author of &quot;Battle Team Positions&quot; Proposal<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Merit Program<br /> *Co-author of the Scholae Palatinae: Scrolls of Sidious<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Dark Paladin<br /> *Author of the Scholae Palatinae: Consul's Coven<br /> *Primary author of the Scholae Palatinae: Prospectus<br /> <br /> '''Participation'''<br /> <br /> *Independence Games 2005<br /> **3rd Overall<br /> **Led Clan (Top point scorer &amp; PCON) to 1st Overall<br /> *Sixth Great Jedi War<br /> **Led Clan (PCON) to 4th Overall<br /> <br /> ===Leadership Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Proconsul, Clan Exar Kun<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Plagueis<br /> *Proconsul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Consul, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> <br /> ===Other Positions Held===<br /> <br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, IRC Basics<br /> *Eclectic Pedagogue, Lightsaber Basics<br /> *Envoy, House Byss<br /> *Envoy, House Exar Kun<br /> *Knight Class Envoy, Clan Scholae Palatinae<br /> *Knight Adjutant of the Brotherhood<br /> *Guard Captain, Grand Master's Royal Guard<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> <br /> *Braecen originally found interest in Star Wars through the novel &quot;X-Wing:Rogue Squadron&quot; by Michael A.

He also bears the burden of Guardian of Cerea, officially responsible for defending the sector of his home world. However, he is rarely called to this service. The most recent acting Guardians are now his [[The Entourage|Entourage]], who can often be seen on and off the battle field with the skilled soldier.<br /> <br /> == Character History ==<br /> Mother was a beautiful queen. She ruled the town of Ta-Gal with such grace and poise that she would have rivaled even the greatest of politicians back in the days of the Old Republic. Father too was a good man. He ran our local pub, and somehow never drank a pint in his life. He was kind to all, and was the quickest wit this side of the Majestic Mountains, which began their towering skyscrapers on the far side of the most pristine lake I have yet to see. <br /> <br /> I, on the other hand, was a mess of a child. I was smart, strong, and fast. More importantly though, I was fearless. My parents ran the town, so I could get away with anything. Many times that limit was tested. My favorite prank was to release the pigs and the chickens of old Lady Maine and watch her try to chase them town; usually half the town was required to come together to bring them all home. Lady Maine had a daughter, and she was the only Cerean whose physical beauty I thought could rival my mother. <br /> <br /> At only 11 years of age, I had already set the record for the fastest time to swim the length of Lake Ta-Gal. The record was previously held by my grandmother, the previous Queen of Ta-Gal, who set it when she was in her mid-twenties. Already, my parents knew that this small town could not contain me any longer. Within a week they had made arrangements to send me to the Cerean Capital for discipline and training. Wow! No words could explain how excited I was. Most of Cerea was peaceful, but some would go out and travel the space lanes. A few had even been known to train as Jedi Knights. <br /> <br /> The Guardian of Cerea, a vibrant middle-aged Lady Berkana, was no Jedi. However, she had much to teach me. I spent two years studying all about the galaxy. There were hundreds of meters of parchment and millions of data-bytes on the history of unknown numbers of civilizations. I absorbed it all quickly, like a sponge with water. I particularly enjoyed studying the wide array of military strategy, from the Empire, all the way back to the Mandalorian Wars and before. Then my training really began. <br /> <br /> I had caused minor trouble around the large city, but nothing that was beyond what was expected of a young boy in a new place. However, every time I was caught, I would be severely punished by Guardian Berkana. So I learned to not get caught. This got worse as I began to learn various different forms of martial arts, and also how to fight with a wide variety of weapons. I began to fight. And I loved it! I craved it. Lady Berkana was always impressed with my ability to learn everything so fast, and told me more about the Jedi. I couldn't understand how the Jedi could waste such a gift and power and not use it for more. In hindsight, I can see I had always walked the path of the Dark Side. <br /> <br /> My favorite training mixed everything I knew into one almost perfect form of warfare. I wielded two [http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ryyk_Kerarthorr| Ryyk Blades], the famed weapons of Wookie Elites. Many very fine warriors across the galaxy would never be able to wield such ferocious weapons, but I moved so fast that the air itself seemed to lift the weight to make them no more an effort then if I was swinging just my fists.<br /> <br /> On my seventeenth birthday, I challenged my master. She unleashed a fury of one form of combat she had never taught me; Lady Berkana was an Echani Master. I fled in shame. Finding a ship wasn't hard, I stole a small vessel from the starport, the only connection on the whole planet to the outside galaxy. I traveled to many planets, drinking, fighting, and on a few instances even killing. It gave me new energy every time I drew blood from some weaker fool. The only path I now had was looking for Jedi. I knew they were stronger than that old Echani fool, she had even said it herself!<br /> <br /> I worked as hired protection, and occasionally an assassin as well, to pay for my drinks and travels. This lasted almost 3 years. I learned more about galactic politics, and also much more about space-faring. This is when I heard of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who had defeated the entire Empire single-handed. He had lost his other hand in a fight, so it really was with one hand! I had visions and dreams of meeting this Jedi and making him teach me his secrets. Instead, I followed rumors of Jedi that lead me to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. <br /> <br /> I had finally found a home worth having. This whole mini-empire contained warriors in an eternal struggle for power, a constant war. And more so, I found competition. No longer were these barroom brawls against drunken thugs, but trained fighters like myself, and Dark Jedi with the Force another weapon better than any mere vibroblade. I sought out a famed elite of even these warriors. He was called Locust, because he was a tornado of speed and a plague of doom to those he fought. I defeated all three of his other apprentices at the time. So quickly they fell, I barely could understand. I had such a passion and desire and greed to learn from this Master of Warfare, that I was first really able to feel the Force make me faster and stronger and smarter.<br /> <br /> A year I trained, and made myself a weapon of pure might. Yet still the Force escaped through my fingers when I grabbed for it. I had to find the best of the Dark Wizards. And so I hunted down the Scholars of the late-Emperor, who was said to be the strongest of all Wizards. Here I begged their leader to teach me. He refused. I left the brotherhood, and came back many times over the next 6 months. Finally I challenged the Krath (that was the name of wizards) leader to a battle of combat. He refused to kill me, and picked me up with the Force and took me in to train. I don't know what he saw, but I like to think it was passion. <br /> <br /> Even during my training, I would often leave for months. I found an Echani teacher outside the Brotherhood, and learned some basics of this ancient art. It wasn't enough for me to be an Echani warrior, but I learned the fallacies of the combat style, so one day I could defeat my old teacher and take the throne as Lord Berkana, Guardian of Cerea.<br /> <br /> This finally happened, toward the end of my training with the Scholae Palpatine leader, High Priest Braecen Kunar. We returned to my home, in search of parts for my first lightsaber, the will and testament of the Force. This is when I confronted my old Master, used my new strength with the Force and all my knowledge of the galaxy, and crushed her swiftly. <br /> <br /> Now I am a Dark Jedi Knight, a wielder of the Force and a warrior of the Clan Scholae Palpatine. This is my past, and this is where my story begins...<br /> <br /> == DJB Facts ==<br /> Prajna has had 3 master in the Dark Brotherhood. Locust was the first trainer when Prajna was still young and new to everything. He trained PJ in extreme combat, especially in the use of dual-sabers in the game Jedi Academy. [[Desdemonea]] was his second master, but here influence was minimal. His final Master was the young [[Braecen Kaeth Kunar|Braecen Kaeth]], who traveled with him until Prajna finally achieved the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.<br /> <br /> === Positions Held ===<br /> I don't do reports.<br /> <br /> === Outstanding Achievements ===<br /> PJ is still come back after being around for over three and a half years.<br /> <br /> He is currently working on his Darth Maven in Writing.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> Prajna comes from one of the three categories of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_Eightfold_Path|Buddhist Eightfold Path].
