&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;House Wren&#039;&#039;&#039; was founded within [[Clan Vizsla|Clan Vizsla]] by [[Rulvak Qurroc]] and [[Amira Lux]] following the events of [[Thirteenth Great Jedi War|Great Jedi War XIII: Discord]] in 37 ABY. House Wren was a [[Battleteam|Battleteam]] alongside Battleteam Saxon within Clan Vizsla before becoming the Clan&#039;s first official House. The House is currently led by {{Wren-QUA}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  History  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 37 ABY, following the conclusion of the [[Thirteenth Great Jedi War|Thirteenth Great Jedi War]], [[Clan Vizsla|Clan Vizsla&#039;s]] reputation began to spread throughout the core worlds all the way to wild space from their success. As a result, a myriad of contracts calling for these elite mercenaries began to come in. Many of which involved dealing with the underworld. This caused the formation of Battleteam Wren, a group consisting of those who were unafraid to dabble into the darkness of the universe&#039;s cesspits and scumhives to do whatever was necessary for the Clan. The demand of such mercenaries proved to require more administration than initially anticipated, thus steering Battleteam Wren to develop into House Wren. The formation of the House required, in turn, a battleteam for protection of their assets and members. That battleteam is [[Deathwatch|Battleteam Deathwatch]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The quick rise of House Wren, and the clan as a whole, would send a ripple throughout the Brotherhood and its enemies which resulted in the [[Quaestor|Quaestor&#039;s]] life ([[Rulvak Qurroc|Rulvak]]) being threatened by a Collective presence on Daemunn. [[Zsoldos|Zsoldos&#039;]] moon. This problem was dealt with by [[Deathwatch|Battleteam Deathwatch.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Lore  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
House Wren is aptly named after the [[starwars:Mandalorian|Mandalorian]] Clan Wren, more specifically &amp;quot;[[starwars:Sabine Wren|Sabine Wren]]&amp;quot;. Whilst she was considered a light sided individual, she was a rebel who actively fought against galactic law and lived as a free spirit. So much so that she aided in the removal of Saxons from power on [[starwars:Mandalore|Mandalore]] as well as help destabilize the [[starwars:Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The criminal underworld is a huge part of being a [[starwars:Bounty Hunter|Bounty Hunter]]. Some jobs just needed to be done outside of the law of the land. How they achieved these jobs was up to the Hunter, and such is the way of House Wren.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Base Of Operations  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Upon reaching [[House|House]] status in 37 ABY, House Wren was recognized as an autonomous entity. Their base was then set up on Du Kang Island, initially within a series of offices inside Yuanming itself as its base of operations until the destruction of Yuanming after the attack of the Children of Mortis forces. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the destruction of this city, [[House|House]] Wren, moved into the recently captured military base on the moon on Daemunn. It had been secured by Wren forces during the fifth Great Hunt for Clan Vizsla. It was taken from a pirate force led by a former Imperial with the name of Captain Mar&#039;Vel Wonder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Great Hunt  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the events of the war in the [[Lyra-3K-a system|Lyra 3K-A system]], Grand Master [[dossier:1120|Declan Roark]] issued Clan Vizsla&#039;s very first &amp;quot;Great Hunt.&amp;quot; Both as a way to celebrate the Clan&#039;s success during the war and to celebrate the opening of House Wren. Both inaugural House leaders, Rulvak and Amira, would finish first and second respectively. They would celebrate this victory at the Saga drinking hall on [[Zsoldos|Zsoldos]]. The Great Hunts would continue annually from then on, bringing in the best of the best to duke it out for the title of &amp;quot;Hunt Master&amp;quot; and all the recognition that comes with it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==  Unit Specialty  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
House Wren prides itself in working in the seedy underbellies of the galaxy. Therefore, providing they have the stomach for it, anyone can serve under House Wren. From [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] to [[starwars:Sith|Sith]], Loyalists and Mercenaries alike. As long as they have the guts to do the gritty work no-one else in the galaxy is willing to do, anyone can be successful in House Wren. However, due to the nature of the work and even despite the Houses inaugural leaders being Force Users, most of those within the [[House|House]] are Mercenaries not afraid of getting their hands dirty.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Malodin&#039;Tater&#039;&#039;&#039; is a Mandalorian Bounty Hunter and a member of Clan Vizsla. He currently is serving as a Magistrate to the Consul and a leader in the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not much is known about the early life of Malodin’Tater. His closest allies have never heard much about where he was from or even when he was born. Ric Hunter, who many would consider his oldest and best friend, knew very little about him. All anyone knew was that he was born on Csilla, sometime in the early days of the Empire. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While a child, he became a Mandalorian. That’s pretty much the extent of what anyone knows of the early life of Malodin’Tater.&lt;br /&gt;

Since following Ric away from CSP, Malodin has settled on Nar Shadda. They have purchased a lovely little bar at the spaceport and named it the Jaded Tater. Currently, this place is a mixture of high-class passengers and shady types. Malodin, being Ric&#039;s right-hand man, usually keeps order in the bar when he is there. The bar has been used as a meeting place to plan various events as well as a hideout for people on the Run. Malodin and Ric have customized many areas of the bar to feature escape exits as well as meeting rooms that are out of sight.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Crew==&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Malodin&#039;Tater]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Battlemaster [[Kiera Lankost]] - Assassin, undercover operative, and a few other things. Kiera was formerly the medic until that job was taken over by a new member of the team, Alyessa Trenor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Major Kristil Harkness - Intelligence, secondary pilot/navigator, undercover operative, and ships mechanic. (Deceased) She was murdered after Ric was compromised by the One Sith.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*R2-K9a - Maddog - Astro droid, navigator, ships system maintainer, ships defense, undercover operative, and an all around nice little guy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Tater began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Ric&#039;s cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Crew==&lt;br /&gt;
*Reaver [[Malodin&#039;Blade]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Major Kristil Harkness - Intelligence, secondary pilot/navigator, undercover operative, and ships mechanic. (Deceased) She was murdered after Ric was compromised by the One Sith.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Tater began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Ric&#039;s cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;

One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Crew==&lt;br /&gt;
*Reaver [[Malodin&#039;Blade]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Battlemaster [[Kiera Lankost]] - Assassin, undercover operative, and a few other things. Kiera was formerly the medic until that job was taken over by a new member of the team, Alyessa Trenor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Major Kristil Harkness - Intelligence, secondary pilot/navigator, undercover operative, and ships mechanic. (Deceased) She was murdered after Ric was compromised by the One Sith.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*R2-K9a - Maddog - Astro droid, navigator, ships system maintainer, ships defense, undercover operative, and an all around nice little guy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Tater began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Ric&#039;s cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Commander Malodin&#039;Tater&#039;&#039;&#039; is a loyalist dedicated to his friend and business partner, Ric &amp;quot;Tater&amp;quot; Hunter. He is a very competent hunter and tactician and a very loyal member of Ric&#039;s&#039; crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin&#039;Tater was born on the Chiss homeworld of Csilla. His parents were both members of the Chiss Defense Force and had left him in the care of family soon after Malodin was born. He was raised outside of a small city by his grandparents. He doesn&#039;t have any memories of his parents other than a few holos his grandparents had saved for him. As he grew up, he learned that his parents had been killed during a skirmish with members of a human resistance force that had encroached on Chiss space. He learned that the humans had been members of the Alliance to restore the Republic and and intense hatred grew in him. He focused his  energy into becoming a soldier so that he could go avenge his parents, something that his grandfather had tried to deflect. His grandfather knew that vengeance would only get his grandson killed and had tried to temper the rage into different more useful pursuits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Malodin reached the age of mandatory military service, he chose to enter the Chiss Defense force as a pilot trainee. He learned to fly small craft up to and including transports. His desire was to learn as much as he could and then move on to avenge his parents in any way that he could. After three years of service, Malodins time was over and he had saved enough money to buy a small ship. He said his goodbyes to his family and headed out into the galaxy to find his destiny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Hunt==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin tracked down members of the Alliance for years. On on mission, he was after a member of the crew that had been at the battle his parents had died in when he ran into another man tracking the same target. Malodin did his best to slow the other down. He finally set a trap for his target only to find that his competitor had acted first. Enraged, Malodin attacked the cloaked figure. The man quickly overcame Malodins attacks and had him pinned to the wall. The man was Warrior Ric Hunter, a low level Dark Jedi that had been in pursuit of classified information.  He needed to find a cell of agents that were threatening his house, Dorimad Sol, and this man was the only one that possessed the information. As soon as Ric learned what he needed, he let Malodin loose. Ric could feel that they men would be friends to which Malodin could only laugh. As they parted,&lt;br /&gt;
Ric told Malodin he would see him later to which Malodin only grunted and doubted that they would.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Months went by and then became years, Malodin followed the clues he had gotten from the Alliance soldier and tracked a group of troops to a small outpost near Caina in the Judecca system. As he neared the target, he was intercepted by a small group of men and captured. As he was being interrogated, a shadow moved in and in a flash of crimson, cut down the four men holding Malodin. Once more the face of his savior was that of Ric Hunter, now a Battlelord and a Quaestor of Dorimad Sol. As he saw Malodin, he smiled and asked for his help. Since Ric had just saved his life, he figured he owed him so he agreed. The job was to take out the rest of the cell that both men had been tracking, not knowing that each had been working on the same mission all along.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==New Home==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the end of the mission, Ric had saved Malodins life at the cost of his own. Mal knew he would never be able to repay the debt that he had owed Ric, so he decided to offer his services to Dorimad Sol as a soldier. He landed his ship and made his way to the Quaestors office, figuring that he would talk to whoever had taken Rics place. Much to his surprise, the man sitting behind the desk was Ric. Mal never knew that Ric had learned cloning from his very first house and had gotten very good at it. Ric was honored to have Mals services and accepted him as a business partner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From that day forward, Mal had been at home in Scholae Palatinae and would do what he could to ensure that they succeed in whatever task they do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Jaded Tater==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since following Ric away from CSP, Malodin has settled on Nar Shadda. They have purchased a lovely little bar at the spaceport and named it the Jaded Tater. Currently, this place is a mixture of highclass passengers and shady types. Malodin, being Rics right hand man, usually keeps order in the bar when they are there. The bar has been used as a meeting place to plan various events as well as a hideout for people on the Run. Malodin and Ric have customized many areas of the bar to feature escape exits as well as meeting rooms that are out of sight.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Crew==&lt;br /&gt;
*Reaver [[Malodin&#039;Blade]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Battlemaster [[Kiera Lankost]] - Assassin, undercover operative, and a few other things. Kiera was formerly the medic until that job was taken over by a new member of the team, Alyessa Trenor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Major Kristil Harkness - Intelligence, secondary pilot/navigator, undercover operative, and ships mechanic. (Deceased) She was murdered after Ric was compromised by the One Sith.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Tater began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Ric&#039;s cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Crew==&lt;br /&gt;
*Reaver [[Malodin&#039;Blade]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Professional Alyessa Trenor - A new addition to the team, Alyessa is a combat medic formerly attached to a CSP Special Forces team. Alyessa got separated from her unit and lost after an ambush destroyed it on a mission. Ric and Malodin found her and took her in. She can usually be found tending the bar on Nar Shadda unless she it on a hunt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal Enemy==&lt;br /&gt;
Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

===Outstanding Achievements===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Won the 2008 CSP Oscar for Graphic Artist with 10 votes. He also got the most votes of anyone in any category.&lt;br /&gt;
*Named Hero of Dorimad Sol in the first part of Rise of a Rebellion, leading HDS to victory over the other houses.&lt;br /&gt;
*Created the Dorimad Sol logo, after a long night of drinking :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
To earn the [[Title#Clan_Titles|Clan title]] of Palpatine is to receive a badge of honor that is paramount within the walls of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. As guardians of the Palpatine line, protectors of his Dark Side knowledge and advocates to the execution of his will - those who bear the Dark Lord&#039;s name do so after establishing themselves as prominent and loyal members of the Imperial Clan. Only those who live up to Palpatine&#039;s legacy can be given this honor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who achieve the &#039;&#039;&#039;Legacy of Palpatine&#039;&#039;&#039;, current and former, are detailed here. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Responsibilities of the Palpatines ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Granting the Title of Palpatine ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following process is utilized in the granting of the Clan title:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The Clan Summit, via means of activity reports, identifies exceptional members within the clan through personal experiences, and recommendations from Clan members and leaders. (Notes on Exceptional Service can be found below along with a couple of prerequisites.) They are expected to adhere to the strictest standards and may at times be unable to identify anyone worthy of being granted the title at a given time. If a member is identified as suitable, they may proceed to put their name forward to the current Palpatines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Once a worthy member has been clearly identified, the Consul and Proconsul, or a sitting member of the Palpatines bring the applicant forward to the entirety of the titled members. The assembled members hold a majority vote, based upon the presented application. Only a majority vote in favor finds the member inducted into the ranks of the Palpatines. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* If the member is approved by the titled members, then, the request is put forward to the Grand Master and his Deputy for final approval.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Defining Exceptional Service ====&lt;br /&gt;
* Substantial presence in Clan Projects, vendettas, and Clan events.&lt;br /&gt;
* Leadership experience within the Clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a member of the Clan for minimum one (1) year before they can be considered. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must not have AWOLed or left the Clan for any reason within the last year other than for a DC position.(Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a positive influence upon lower ranked members, including exceptional mentoring of these members. This could include the mentoring of an apprentice up to Journeyman 4. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Honoured Legacies ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Honoured Legacy of Palatine are those that are currently active within the Clan and represented upon the Clan Roster. These are the members that have voting privileges upon the presentation of a member to receive the honour of holding the clan title.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Revoking the Title of Palpatine===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clan titles are a sacred honor and are not taken lightly. If a member transfers Clans their title is forfeit. If a member&#039;s actions are deemed a detriment to the Clan, and the DJB as a whole his/her title can be revoked. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Dark Paladins ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The title of [[Dark Paladins of Scholae Palatinae|Dark Paladins]] is a historic courtesy title conveyed upon the most active and inspiration members of Scholae Palatinae. Each member of this elite cadre was chosen over a period of time and membership in the ranks was upheld on a continual basis. Seen as a lower tier of prestige and participation in the governance and leadership of Scholae Palatinae, the title is no longer awarded and it has been relegated to a courtesy title that those bestowed may use, but which conveys no current obligations or privileges. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Rogued Legacies ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, Palatinaens that have been granted the title of Palpatine become Rogue; whether through inactivity of due to reasons that must pull them away from the Brotherhood. These members are welcomed back upon their return and born no ill will. &lt;br /&gt;

Much of his foresight has guided this Clan to where it is today and has unified us as a whole. As one of the first to swear eternal loyalty to the Clan, Scholae Palatinae is proud to name him a Legacy of Palpatine.&lt;br /&gt;

|width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;text-align:left&amp;quot; |  A distinguished Quaestor of Dorimad Sol, Phoenix was essential for many victories of Scholae Palatinae, both by providing direct effort and by offering his leadership to its members. Combining his zero tolerance for complacency and remarkable skills on and off the battlefield, he has always been one of those who made the heart and soul of the Clan. Furthermore, his sharp wit and tongue have more than once outsmarted many that thought themselves to be more clever than what the best that the Clan had to offer. Scholae Palatinae is proud to name him a Legacy of Palpatine.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Commander Malodin&#039;Blade&#039;&#039;&#039; is a loyalist dedicated to his friend and business partner, Ric &amp;quot;Tater&amp;quot; Hunter. He is a very competent hunter and tactician and a very loyal member of Ric&#039;s&#039; crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin&#039;Blade was born on the Chiss homeworld of Csilla. His parents were both members of the Chiss Defense Force and had left him in the care of family soon after Malodin was born. He was raised outside of a small city by his grandparents. He doesn&#039;t have any memories of his parents other than a few holos his grandparents had saved for him. As he grew up, he learned that his parents had been killed during a skirmish with members of a human resistance force that had encroached on Chiss space. He learned that the humans had been members of the Alliance to restore the Republic and and intense hatred grew in him. He focused his  energy into becoming a soldier so that he could go avenge his parents, something that his grandfather had tried to deflect. His grandfather knew that vengeance would only get his grandson killed and had tried to temper the rage into different more useful pursuits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Malodin reached the age of mandatory military service, he chose to enter the Chiss Defense force as a pilot trainee. He learned to fly small craft up to and including transports. His desire was to learn as much as he could and then move on to avenge his parents in any way that he could. After three years of service, Malodins time was over and he had saved enough money to buy a small ship. He said his goodbyes to his family and headed out into the galaxy to find his destiny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Hunt==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin tracked down members of the Alliance for years. On on mission, he was after a member of the crew that had been at the battle his parents had died in when he ran into another man tracking the same target. Malodin did his best to slow the other down. He finally set a trap for his target only to find that his competitor had acted first. Enraged, Malodin attacked the cloaked figure. The man quickly overcame Malodins attacks and had him pinned to the wall. The man was Warrior Ric Hunter, a low level Dark Jedi that had been in pursuit of classified information.  He needed to find a cell of agents that were threatening his house, Dorimad Sol, and this man was the only one that possessed the information. As soon as Ric learned what he needed, he let Malodin loose. Ric could feel that they men would be friends to which Malodin could only laugh. As they parted,&lt;br /&gt;
Ric told Malodin he would see him later to which Malodin only grunted and doubted that they would.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Months went by and then became years, Malodin followed the clues he had gotten from the Alliance soldier and tracked a group of troops to a small outpost near Caina in the Judecca system. As he neared the target, he was intercepted by a small group of men and captured. As he was being interrogated, a shadow moved in and in a flash of crimson, cut down the four men holding Malodin. Once more the face of his savior was that of Ric Hunter, now a Battlelord and a Quaestor of Dorimad Sol. As he saw Malodin, he smiled and asked for his help. Since Ric had just saved his life, he figured he owed him so he agreed. The job was to take out the rest of the cell that both men had been tracking, not knowing that each had been working on the same mission all along.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==New Home==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the end of the mission, Ric had saved Malodins life at the cost of his own. Mal knew he would never be able to repay the debt that he had owed Ric, so he decided to offer his services to Dorimad Sol as a soldier. He landed his ship and made his way to the Quaestors office, figuring that he would talk to whoever had taken Rics place. Much to his surprise, the man sitting behind the desk was Ric. Mal never knew that Ric had learned cloning from his very first house and had gotten very good at it. Ric was honored to have Mals services and accepted him as a business partner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From that day forward, Mal had been at home in Scholae Palatinae and would do what he could to ensure that they succeed in whatever task they do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Jaded Tater==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since following Ric away from CSP, Malodin has settled on Nar Shadda. They have purchased a lovely little bar at the spaceport and named it the Jaded Tater. Currently, this place is a mixture of highclass passengers and shady types. Malodin, being Rics right hand man, usually keeps order in the bar when they are there. The bar has been used as a meeting place to plan various events as well as a hideout for people on the Run. Malodin and Ric have customized many areas of the bar to feature escape exits as well as meeting rooms that are out of sight.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mission.&lt;br /&gt;

Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric explained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mision.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front business that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Losing Touch ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having his body cloned so many times, Ric has felt the Force slowly start to slip away from him. It seemed that with each new body, his connection was a little less and at first it was hardly noticeable. Now it seemed that his powers were diminished to the point that it took effort to use them. As a way to compensate, he worked on his combat skills more to be able to continue. Ric focused more on his hunting than he did his Force training and began to drift away from the clan. As this happened, his apprentice noticed and became worried for him. Kiera looked at Ric as her father figure and tried to get him to talk to her, but he wouldn&#039;t. She finally went to Malodin and asked him. Malodin would only say that he was different and that anything else he would have to tell her as it was not Malodins place to. Finally, she confronted Ric during a slow mission and asked him out right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric ezxplained to her about his loss of connection and that he felt that it was better for her to complete her training with another. He knew that only from others could she fully understand the Force and to become what she was always meant to be. Kiera said she understood and after the mission, she went back to finish up under the tutelage of Dante. Ric trusted no one else with her training and once it was complete she would be more powerful than he could be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Ric and Malodin slipped away from CSP, they settled on Nal Hutta and opened a bar in the main spaceport. It was a nicer upscale place that served as a meeting place for hunters as well as shady intel types that Ric knew from his days working for Imperial Intelligence Division. Most days, Ric can be found either there or off on some sort of mision.&lt;br /&gt;

After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front buisness that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front buisness that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front buisness that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Won the 2008 CSP Oscar for Graphic Artist with 10 votes. He also got the most votes of anyone in any category.&lt;br /&gt;
*Named Hero of Dorimad Sol in the first part of Rise of a Rebellion, leading HDS to victory over the other houses.&lt;br /&gt;
*Created the Dorimad Sol logo, after a long night of drinking :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
To earn the [[Title#Clan_Titles|Clan title]] of Palpatine is to receive a badge of honor that is paramount within the walls of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. As guardians of the Palpatine line, protectors of his Dark Side knowledge and advocates to the execution of his will - those who bear the Dark Lord&#039;s name do so after establishing themselves as prominent and loyal members of the Imperial Clan. Only those who live up to Palpatine&#039;s legacy can be given this honor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who achieve the &#039;&#039;&#039;Legacy of Palpatine&#039;&#039;&#039;, current and former, are detailed here. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Responsibilities of the Palpatines ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Granting the Title of Palpatine ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following process is utilized in the granting of the Clan title:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The Clan Summit, via means of activity reports, identifies exceptional members within the clan through personal experiences, and recommendations from Clan members and leaders. (Notes on Exceptional Service can be found below along with a couple of prerequisites.) They are expected to adhere to the strictest standards and may at times be unable to identify anyone worthy of being granted the title at a given time. If a member is identified as suitable, they may proceed to put their name forward to the current Palpatines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Once a worthy member has been clearly identified, the Consul and Proconsul, or a sitting member of the Palpatines bring the applicant forward to the entirety of the titled members. The assembled members hold a majority vote, based upon the presented application. Only a majority vote in favor finds the member inducted into the ranks of the Palpatines. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* If the member is approved by the titled members, then, the request is put forward to the Grand Master and his Deputy for final approval.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Defining Exceptional Service ====&lt;br /&gt;
* Substantial presence in Clan Projects, vendettas, and Clan events.&lt;br /&gt;
* Leadership experience within the Clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a member of the Clan for minimum one (1) year before they can be considered. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must not have AWOLed or left the Clan for any reason within the last year other than for a DC position.(Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a positive influence upon lower ranked members, including exceptional mentoring of these members. This could include the mentoring of an apprentice up to Journeyman 4. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Honoured Legacies ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Honoured Legacy of Palatine are those that are currently active within the Clan and represented upon the Clan Roster. These are the members that have voting privileges upon the presentation of a member to receive the honour of holding the clan title.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Revoking the Title of Palpatine===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clan titles are a sacred honor and are not taken lightly. If a member transfers Clans their title is forfeit. If a member&#039;s actions are deemed a detriment to the Clan, and the DJB as a whole his/her title can be revoked. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Dark Paladins ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The title of [[Dark Paladins of Scholae Palatinae|Dark Paladins]] is a historic courtesy title conveyed upon the most active and inspiration members of Scholae Palatinae. Each member of this elite cadre was chosen over a period of time and membership in the ranks was upheld on a continual basis. Seen as a lower tier of prestige and participation in the governance and leadership of Scholae Palatinae, the title is no longer awarded and it has been relegated to a courtesy title that those bestowed may use, but which conveys no current obligations or privileges. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Rogued Legacies ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, Palatinaens that have been granted the title of Palpatine become Rogue; whether through inactivity of due to reasons that must pull them away from the Brotherhood. These members are welcomed back upon their return and born no ill will. &lt;br /&gt;

Much of his foresight has guided this Clan to where it is today and has unified us as a whole. As one of the first to swear eternal loyalty to the Clan, Scholae Palatinae is proud to name him a Legacy of Palpatine.&lt;br /&gt;

Furthermore, his sharp wit and tongue have more than once outsmarted many that thought themselves to be more clever than what the best that the Clan had to offer.

|width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;text-align:left&amp;quot; |  One of the first of the dedicated of scholars amongst the Clan, this long-time member of the Clan has been together with them in even the most difficult of times. He proved his dedication to Scholae Palatinae a number of times, and recognized himself as eternal member of this group. His on-going work to chronicle the greatness and existence of the Clan, as well as his staunch defense of its long-held and treasured traditions have made Scholae Palatinae to name him a proud Legacy of Palpatine.&lt;br /&gt;

|width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;text-align:left&amp;quot; |  As the youngest Palpatine, RevengeX&#039;s career has not been filled with revolutionary ideas, but throughout his time in the Clan, he has worked diligently and has proven himself to be reliable in delicate times of war. His most notable work was done in his one year term as Rollmaster of Acclivis Draco and his unfolding accomplishments as Quaestor of Acclivis Draco.&lt;br /&gt;

|width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;text-align:left&amp;quot; |  A former Quaestor and Consul, Vail&#039;s reigns in both positions were, long, fruitful, and filled with major accomplishments. Unteminar led the Clan into and through the Sixth Great Jedi War and Krath Rite of Supremacy, snagging high rankings in both competitions. After years of seemingly gradual decline, he showed the Brotherhood that CSP was still a force to be reckoned with.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
To earn the [[Title#Clan_Titles|Clan title]] of Palpatine is to receive a badge of honor that is paramount within the walls of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. As guardians of the Palpatine line, protectors of his Dark Side knowledge and advocates to the execution of his will - those who bear the Dark Lord&#039;s name do so after establishing themselves as prominent and loyal members of the Imperial Clan. Only those who live up to Palpatine&#039;s legacy can be given this honor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who achieve the &#039;&#039;&#039;Legacy of Palpatine&#039;&#039;&#039;, current and former, are detailed here. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Responsibilities of the Palpatines ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Granting the Title of Palpatine ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following process is utilized in the granting of the Clan title:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The Clan Summit, via means of activity reports, identifies exceptional members within the clan through personal experiences, and recommendations from Clan members and leaders. (Notes on Exceptional Service can be found below along with a couple of prerequisites.) They are expected to adhere to the strictest standards and may at times be unable to identify anyone worthy of being granted the title at a given time. If a member is identified as suitable, they may proceed to put their name forward to the current Palpatines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Once a worthy member has been clearly identified, the Consul and Proconsul, or a sitting member of the Palpatines bring the applicant forward to the entirety of the titled members. The assembled members hold a majority vote, based upon the presented application. Only a majority vote in favor finds the member inducted into the ranks of the Palpatines. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* If the member is approved by the titled members, then, the request is put forward to the Grand Master and his Deputy for final approval.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Defining Exceptional Service ====&lt;br /&gt;
* Substantial presence in Clan Projects, vendettas, and Clan events.&lt;br /&gt;
* Leadership experience within the Clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a member of the Clan for minimum one (1) year before they can be considered. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must not have AWOLed or left the Clan for any reason within the last year other than for a DC position.(Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
* Must be a positive influence upon lower ranked members, including exceptional mentoring of these members. This could include the mentoring of an apprentice up to Journeyman 4. (Prerequisite)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Honoured Legacies ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Honoured Legacy of Palatine are those that are currently active within the Clan and represented upon the Clan Roster. These are the members that have voting privileges upon the presentation of a member to receive the honour of holding the clan title.&lt;br /&gt;

He proved invaluable in fighting against the forces of the Meraxis Empire in numerous engagements and was instrumental in the assault on their capital city of Nardash on the planet [[Seraph]], where he led a small team that was part of the unit responsible for the capture of Emperor Adoniram.  Suffice it to say, when Scholae Palatinae is in need, Reiden will always be there, ready to answer the call.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Revoking the Title of Palpatine===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clan titles are a sacred honor and are not taken lightly. If a member transfers Clans their title is forfeit. If a member&#039;s actions are deemed a detriment to the Clan, and the DJB as a whole his/her title can be revoked. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Dark Paladins ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The title of [[Dark Paladins of Scholae Palatinae|Dark Paladins]] is a historic courtesy title conveyed upon the most active and inspiration members of Scholae Palatinae. Each member of this elite cadre was chosen over a period of time and membership in the ranks was upheld on a continual basis. Seen as a lower tier of prestige and participation in the governance and leadership of Scholae Palatinae, the title is no longer awarded and it has been relegated to a courtesy title that those bestowed may use, but which conveys no current obligations or privileges. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Rogued Legacies ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, Palatinaens that have been granted the title of Palpatine become Rogue; whether through inactivity of due to reasons that must pull them away from the Brotherhood. These members are welcomed back upon their return and born no ill will. &lt;br /&gt;

Much of his foresight has guided this Clan to where it is today and has unified us as a whole.

Furthermore, his sharp wit and tongue have more than once outsmarted many that thought themselves to be more clever than what the best that the Clan had to offer.

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Journey to Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Darkness, Scholae Rising ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It had long been known that Ric used clones to keep his young appearance. He had a sometimes total disregard for his own life owing to the fact that he would come back, from almost anything. This was one of his greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses combined as it was something that could be exploited. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out in the dark areas of the unknown Regions, a great power was rising and would soon engulf the galaxy once more. This threat was the One Sith and its leader, the failing clone of Emperor Palpatine. For years the One Sith had sent messages to the Scholae Emperor and these messages would always be ignored. When the clan was conceived in Palpatines mind, decades ago, they would be one of many secret groups of Darksiders that he could call upon during his return. He had built a secret army to help him retake the galaxy and Scholae was a part of that, even though the general membership was not aware of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during the reign of Shadow Nighthunter that the One Sith began to make their moves. They had infiltrated almost every organization in the galaxy with sleeper agents and had gotten to Rics cloning lab. Ric used the same clone tech that the Kaminoans had used during the Clone War and it had the same inhibitor chip implanter that their machines did, unknown to Ric. Agents of the One Sith had implanted secret orders into the chip much as what had been done to the Jango Fett clones and they activated him the same way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric still acted and behaved as he always had and no one was any wiser to the fact that he was now an agent of the One Sith. He began to feed information to the secret order about the clan and the state of the Brotherhood as well as slowly weakening the clan. Ric never realized what he had been doing as the programming had been so slight that he never noticed. It all came to a head during the fall of Imperium and Excidium. Scholae Palatinae was going through a period of reorganization when they had finally established a stronger foothold on Meraxis cities and lands. Finally about to abandon the facade of the Imperial seeming house and fully embracing their Dark Jedi identity, it was decided to cease operations of house Imperium and form the Empire&#039;s Chosen. It was during this event that the One Sith struck and caused chaos in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It began with destruction of Imperiums headquarters and continued with the murder of Major Krystal Harkness, a former Meraxis Intelligence officer who served on Rics personal team. She had discovered the trail of events that had led to the current crisis led right back to Ric. When she confronted him about it, prior to going to the clan summit, Ric cut her down with his purple bladed lightsaber. He then left as Major Harkness had left a message with all the evidence to be opened in the occasion of her death. He was now public enemy number one in CSP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally captured and the chip removed, Ric was locked away awaiting punishment. He was being moved when he was freed by his old friend, Angelo Dante and his son Kell. Ric didn&#039;t know that he had been cleared due to the revelation of the chip in his head and the programming it contained. Dante gave him a communication device so that he could keep in contact and he would call if he was ever needed. Ric went to the hanger where his friend, Malodin waited with the ship. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Hunting ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric and Malodin began to work as mercenaries and bounty hunters in the other side of the galaxy. Ric broke ties with his clan as much as he could so he wouldn&#039;t be tempted to return. He wasn&#039;t aware that they had more or less forgiven him for his actions but he felt he needed time to find himself again. Ric went so far as to close himself off to the Force. He relied on his other skills with weapons and ships and his partner. The only regret he had at this time was that he had left his apprentice, Kiera, behind. He knew that she was safer there and that she needed to finish her training. Dante had offered to help her and keep an eye on her and Ric had accepted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost two years of working around Nal Hutta and Tatooine, Ric received word that he was needed back home. There was an uprising going on and he was needed. Shadow had been taken by the rebels and Ric owed her a debt for sparing him after his actions. He raced bac home and jumped right into action. After arriving, he was met by Kiera who was both very happy and very angry at him. She was happy to see the man she considered her father but was angry that he had failed to take her or even keep in touch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After helping to finally end the civil war and taking complete control of the system, Ric and Malodin decided to stay local and open a bar. They had settled on opening Alaras old hand out, the front buisness that they had for Excidiums criminal activity, when the system was again attacked by the Children of Mortis. Ric would fight his way through the war, having both victory and loss at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;

As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric helped to build their presence in their new city. He once more ascended &lt;br /&gt;
to the position of Aedile and finally back to Quaestor and led his house through many conflicts.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{CSP Organization}}&lt;br /&gt;
The ghost of the Galactic Empire, &#039;&#039;&#039;Clan Scholae Palatinae&#039;&#039;&#039; ever stands proud, ready and able, an amalgamation of Dark Jedi and Sith, Gray Jedi and imperial loyalists, mercenaries and bounty hunters. Led by their shrewd [[consul|Empress]], houses [[Imperium]] and [[Excidium]] come together to form glaive and hammer, together mustering their martial might to secure and expand their territory in the [[Caperion System]] and status in the [[Dark Brotherhood]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Clan Scholae Palatinae history}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clan Scholae Palatinae proudly traces its roots back to [[starwars:Palpatine|Emperor Palpatine’s]] Galactic Empire. For nearly two decades, the clan maintained an iron grip on [[Cocytus System|its former territory]] and began to build a formidable military from conscription of the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus]] natives. The clan fended off attacks from both within, including a terrorist organisation known as &#039;The Cause&#039; which attempted to restore power to the Cocytus natives, until in [[34 ABY]], the [[Dark Council]]’s Iron Fleet destroyed the [[Cocytus System]], leaving the clan in disarray, forcing key personnel to escape. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The clan fled to the [[Caperion System]], a system with diverse spacefaring civilisations and a complex political structure. The clan made its mark on the system by taking [[Caelestis City]] from [[Ragnath|The Meraxis Empire]], claiming it as their new headquarters and establishing a new military: the [[Imperial Scholae Army]] and [[Imperial Scholae Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Scholae Empire==&lt;br /&gt;
===Government and Politics===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Scholae Empire, modelled on the workings of Palpatine&#039;s Galactic Empire, is the frontal governmental system operated by Clan Scholae Palatinae. The Scholae Empire is public knowledge to inhabitants of the [[Caperion System]], while the Dark Jedi clan, the real force behind the government, operates in the shadows. This fact is unknown to all but the top military, economic and political leaders, those who are familiar enough with the Empire to know that disclosing its secrets is unwise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Headquartered in the [[Caelestis City|City of Caelestis]], on [[Ragnath]], the Imperial Government is led by the Emperor of the Scholae Empire, who rules de facto over its claimed territory. This territory currently consists of the capital and most of the [[Ragnath|continent of Maqor]]. The appointed officers, and below them the Senate, help alleviate some of the duties of the Emperor. Advisors within the Imperial Palace handle the functioning of the realm so that the Emperor has the time to direct and control as he wills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Emperor of the Scholae Empire and the [[Consul]] of Clan Scholae Palatinae form a singular role. While this subjects the system to more frequent changes in Emperor, it is not enough that it causes major alarm for the citizens, who fear the title more than the man himself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current Emperor of the Scholae Empire is [[Elincia Rei]], who goes by the title of Empress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Appointed Officers ====&lt;br /&gt;
The appointed officers of The Scholae Empire are hand-picked and answer only to the Emperor.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grand Admiral&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The [[Proconsul]] of the Clan also takes the role of Grand Admiral of the Scholae Empire. The Grand Admiral is the supreme commander of the [[Imperial Scholae Army]] and [[Imperial Scholae Navy]]. While there were twelve Grand Admirals in Palpatine’s Galactic Empire, Scholae only employs the one due to its relative small size.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current Grand Admiral is [[Mune Cinteroph]], the master of the current Empress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Imperator&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Imperator is the [[Quaestor]] of House [[Imperium]]. The role of the Imperator is to ensure the success of House Imperium in its primary aim of upholding the ideals of the Empire and maintaining security within its territory. Closely aligned with the military, House Imperium are an elite, well funded and well rounded fighting force that mostly operate within clan space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current Imperator is [[Shadow Nighthunter]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Executor&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Executor is the [[Quaestor]] of House [[Excidium]]. The role of the Executor is to ensure the continued success of House Excidium in its primary aim of executing the Emperor’s will. The role of the Executor is not public knowledge, and their actions, often outright criminal in nature, are officially disassociated with the Emperor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current Executor is [[Jorm &amp;quot;The Jester&amp;quot; Na&#039;trej]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Director of Imperial Intelligence&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The [[Rollmaster]] of the clan also takes the role of Director of Imperial Intelligence, often shortened to Director. The Director is the leader of [[Imperial Scholae Intelligence]] the main intelligence force of the Scholae Empire, responsible for the collection, analysis, and exploitation of information in support of law enforcement, national security, military, and foreign policy objectives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current Director of Imperial Intelligence is [[Calindra Hejaran]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; The Imperial Senate &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Imperial Senate, comprised of Dark Jedi members of Clan Scholae Palatinae and civilian politicians, is an advisory body to the Emperor. Members of the Imperial Senate meet regularly to discuss various matters, which have crucial meaning for the functioning of the Empire. However, the Scholae Empire is not a democracy and The Imperial Senate has no power to make any real decisions. It may provide opinions on certain matters or its own ideas for bills, but they still need to be reviewed and approved by the Emperor himself, and are frequently overruled. Nevertheless, the Senate serves the function of making people think that they have an influence on how the Empire is ruled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Economy===&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Scholae Palatinae is new to the Caperion System, and as a result is still establishing itself as a functional economy in its new home. The Caperion System is home to five different factions all with various cultures and needs, which provides a rich array of options for Scholae to exploit from its super-rich capital, Caelestis City.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Imports/Exports&#039;&#039;&#039;: The Scholae Empire has a better understanding of the Galactic economy than its neighbours in Caperion, housing members from all across the Galaxy. As a result, it knows where to find all the best goods. Scholae Palatinae maintains a healthy trade partnership with its neighbours by purchasing luxury items from across the galaxy and selling them on to [[The_Democratic_Republic_of_Elaya|Elaya]], the [[The_United_Corporations_of_Elaya|UCE]] and [[The_Nayama_Dynasty|Nayama]] for a profit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Tourism&#039;&#039;&#039;: Caelestis City, was the jewel of the [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]], a technological masterpiece, and now belongs to Clan Scholae Palatinae. Once extremely difficult to access for non-Meraxis citizens, Scholae has opened up the city for tourism, reaping monetary benefits from its major landmarks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Internal&#039;&#039;&#039;: The Scholae Empire makes money from within its own territory through a high rate of taxation made possible by the wealth of its capital. Further, Scholae engages in the practices of accepting loans from its wealthy citizens in return for imperial favour.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Health Tourism&#039;&#039;&#039;: Tipoca Station is a state-of-the-art hospital in space allowing for up to 80.000 patients to be treated at once. That is more capacity than Scholae Palatinae’s navy crews, ground forces, auxiliaries and Clan members combined could occupy, or not far off. The surplus capacities are privatised and used by citizens of the Scholae Empire and its allies for those who can afford the best healthcare the system has to offer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Clan Scholae Palatinae Structure ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clan Scholae Palatinae is the shadowy organisation, mostly of Dark Jedi, that uphold the Empire in secrecy. Their existence is only known to a select few that can be trusted to have the wisdom not to leak confidential information. Led by the [[Consul]], also known as the Emperor, and supported by the Grand Admiral ([[Proconsul]]) and the Director of Imperial Intelligence ([[Rollmaster]]), Clan Scholae Palatinae is divided into two houses, both equally important arms of the Empire. [[Imperium]] enforces Imperial rule within the laws of the Empire, while [[Excidium]] operates entirely within the shadows as they perform tasks that the Emperor cannot be publicly associated with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* &#039;&#039;&#039;Consul and Empress:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Shadow Nighthunter]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Proconsul and Grand Admiral:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Mune Cinteroph]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;House Quaestors:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter]] ([[Imperium]]), [[Jorm &amp;quot;The Jester&amp;quot; Na&#039;trej]] ([[Excidium]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rollmaster and Director of Intelligence:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[TBD]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;House Aediles:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[TBD]] ([[Imperium]]), [[TBD]] ([[Excidium]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===House Excidium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Excidium|House Excidium]] is known as wild cards and dubious character, some even outright criminal, but this is exactly what Excidium needs in order to watch over the [[Caperion System|Scholae Empire]]. This group uses a wide variety of skills to ensure that the Empire is protected from internal and external threats that the Clan either can’t see or can’t fight due to more delicate reasons, such as political or public image. As a result, it is publicly disassociated from the Clan itself, and while its loyalties may appear to be less than reputable, in reality its fealty is to the Scholae Empire above all else.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===House Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[House Imperium]] is the public face of Clan Scholae Palatinae and is a shining example of its power and might. As such, Imperium exudes military strength, tactically precise weapons of mass destruction, elite troops, and a prestigious naval presence. Imperium is designed to awe Scholae’s allies and strike fear into its enemies. This is exemplified in combat on the front lines, but also behind enemy lines, where success can be achieved by shrewd interventions, subversions and outright sabotage of enemy targets and assets, before Imperial troops even hit the ground.. When war breaks out, Imperium will be the first to respond. During peace, they prepare the road to conquest, all in the name of the Empire, and its former glory.  Members of Imperium will fight boldly, resorting to brute force to overpower the enemy when needed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To the outside world, they are the visible part of the clan, and often are identified as such. Imperium holds several garrisons under its own command, to deter rebellious forces, and to spread the influence of the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Military == &lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Sidious.png|right|250 px|thumb|The [[ISN Sidious]], flagship of the [[Imperial Scholae Navy]] First Flotilla]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Scholae Palatinae Military}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Imperial Scholae Army}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Imperial Scholae Navy}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The military of the Scholae Empire is broken into three elements: the [[Imperial Scholae Army]] (ISA), containing the clan&#039;s ground forces, the [[Imperial Scholae Navy]] (ISN), containing its ships, and the [[Imperial Scholae Intelligence]] (ISI), consisting of spies and data analysts. Each branch is highly regarded for their skills in warfare; though, each element is uniquely different in the way it is deployed and managed. As a combined force, they are designated &#039;&#039;&#039;The Military of Scholae Palatinae&#039;&#039;&#039;. Based on Imperial rule and tradition, the divisible elements can be positioned and commanded with greater ease.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Presiding as Overlord of the Legions &amp;amp; Clan Fleet is the Emperor’s Right-Hand: &#039;&#039;&#039;The Grand Admiral&#039;&#039;&#039;. This is the highest rank one can attain within the Military, short of being the Emperor himself, and is seen as the Chief Military Expert and Leader within the clan. The clan military operates two ranking systems, one for the navy and one for the army. The army ranks are identical to the loyalist [[ranks]] of the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]. This provides an equivalence between the Dark Jedi ranks and military ranks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The members of Clan Scholae Palatinae do not have permanent command of specific military units, but can commandeer sub-units of the military for specific purposes in accordance with their rank. For the Army, this begins with commanding fireteams of 3-4 troops at the Journeyman ranks, up to entire regiments at the upper echelon of the Equite ranks. In the Navy, Dark Jedi of the journeymen ranks can take brief command of fighter flights, and command destroyers at the upper Equite ranks. More detail is available in the main pages of the [[Imperial Scholae Army|Army]] and [[Imperial Scholae Navy|Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mercenary forces will also frequently fight alongside the Imperial Forces. During the [[Twelfth Great Jedi War]], an army of [[The_Nayama_Dynasty|Nayaman]] Mercenaries were paid to support the ISA in the fight against [[The Collective]]. These are not currently employed by the clan following the expiration of their contract.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Dominion==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:RagnathPolitical.png|500px|thumb|right|Political Borders of [[Ragnath]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Scholae Palatinae Territory ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Caelestis City====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Caelestis City]] is the capital of Clan Scholae Palatinae. Originally built by their main enemy, The [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]], it was captured by Scholae shortly after their arrival into the [[Caperion System]]. The city was the jewel of Meraxis until it was taken by Scholae, a sprawling metropolis home to 20 million people, the city is famous for its high tech level in comparison to the rest of the space-faring system. Once a commercial hub of Meraxis, the city is now a central trading point for Scholae Palatinae and its neighbours, and since opening to citizens of Elaya, has become a popular tourist destination. Under Meraxis, the city was given extremely little freedom. As Scholae has presented itself as the lesser of two evils compared with Meraxis to gain the support of the people, citizens enjoy slightly more freedom of movement and speech than they did under their former overlords, which goes a long way to keeping the people happy. However, any pro-Meraxis sentiment is still monitored closely by the Imperial Scholae Intelligence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Massive corporations that once called Caelestis their home have been welcomed into the Scholae Empire as it tries to maintain the thriving economy of the city. The rich and famous who resided in the city have been offered citizenship and political favour in exchange for financial donations to the Empire. The commonfolk typically live in high rise apartment blocks, and benefit from a high standard of living in the city. The major landmarks are the Adoniram Tower, the highest building in the city and the previous pride of The Meraxis Empire, now the offices of Scholae top command, and The Lighthouse, a dueling platform.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Nethal Archipelago====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once home to quiet fishing villages, the Archipelago was torn apart when [[Scholae Palatinae]] took over [[Caelestis City]] and then marched on the islands. Most of the fishing communities have been displaced and are hesitant to return to the islands. As a result, due to its natural beauty, the island chain has been repurposed as a tourist destination, with memorials to recognise the Civilian and Military losses during the battle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Caperion System===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Caperion System}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Caperion System]] has a well-established history of sentient inhabitants and space-faring technology, being home to 5 diverse political groups (6 including Scholae Palatinae). The newcomers to the system, Scholae is still making its mark, seeking alliances and room for expanding its territory.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Isergess====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Isergess]] is a volatile terrestrial world, composed primarily of large volcanoes along with rivers and lakes of molten lava. Scientific studies of the shifting surface have led to the conclusion that the planet is comprised of over 120 different tectonic plates, constantly in movement along the planet. Of these only 5 are large enough to maintain a semi-stable presence on the top of all other plates, estimated to have been on the surface for over 100 million years. The rest of the plates vary in age from 60 million to as recent as 5 million years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ownership of Isergess has been in dispute for many generations by the local population. This dispute has been largely between various corporate entities instead of the major political powers of the planet. While it is rich in many minerals, the ability to easily mine the planet’s resources has been hindered by the planets largely volcanic surface. None of the ruling parties of Seraph have had the resources to invest in building long term mining facilities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Xejtrok]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - the single moon of Isergess. Totally lifeless, it is most notable due to its unique rupturing approximately 200 million years ago. For reasons unknown, the core of the moon experienced a catastrophic reaction, destroying the tailing side of the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Venenum====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Venenum]] is a hostile terrestrial world with a poisonous atmosphere, composed primarily of rocky mountainous terrain, along with rivers, lakes and oceans of sulphuric acid. The climate of the planet is influenced heavily by its elliptical orbit. For the majority of the planet’s 276 day year, the temperature is a moderate 10 - 30 degrees. However, as the planet approaches Caperion, the orbital speed and temperature increase, causing an evaporation of the oceans as temperatures soar to 120 degrees. As the planet passes the closest point of its orbit, the temperature rapidly falls, leading to a standard month of intense acid rain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Venenum was the first planetary step for the people of the Caperion system. Due to its elliptical orbit, and depending on its relation to the orbit of Seraph it can become the closest orbiting planet. In a rare sign of solidarity between the major political powers of Seraph, Venenum was to be home of a cross-cultural colonization effort. However, underestimating the extreme environmental shifts on the planet, along with the strength of the acid rains as it moves further from Caperion, the colonization effort failed, leading to the deaths of over 25,000 individuals from all political parties of Seraph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Lypalion|Ly&#039;palion]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - the only major orbiting moon of Venenum. It has no atmosphere and there have been no attempts to establish bases on its surface by the citizens of the Caperion system. Its surface has many beautiful colours, but have no real use besides being pleasing to look at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Seraph====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Seraph]] is the only planet in the Caperion System ideal for harbouring advanced sentient life. Perfect for life to flourish, Seraph contains a variety of terrains, including desert, mountains, plains, jungles and icy polar regions, as well as large oceans of fresh water and a breathable atmosphere and almost standard levels of gravity. Temperatures on Seraph range from 0 to 30 degrees Celsius, depending on latitude and season, with a year length of 450 standard days. Seraph has a variety of animal and plant life forms, including its own indigenous species and those more commonly seen across the galaxy that have been brought in from off world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The planet is home to five major political groups that fight over power, and is heavily populated with cities, towns and villages, home to 3.7 billion people, 80% of which are human. The [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]] and the [[The_Democratic_Republic_of_Elaya|Democratic Republic of Elaya]] possess the largest territory, with the Republic being the main thing stopping the Empire from dominating the rest of the planet. The [[The_United_Corporations_of_Elaya|United Corporations of Elaya]] are a hugely rich independent faction occupying a single city and possess the majority of the wealth in the system. The remaining two factions are the [[The_Nayama_Dynasty|Nayama Dynasty]], a culture renowned for martial arts and craftsmanship, and [[The_Republic_of_the_Force|The Republic of the Force]], a theocracy that worship the Force and those who control it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Ragnath]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - Seraph&#039;s only moon, is much like its planet in that, other than its low gravity, is perfect for sustaining life. Ragnath&#039;s surface is approximately 57% ocean. Its landmass, which holds 300 million people across several cities, is split into numerous continents ranging in size. While the natural gravity of the planet is very low, artificial gravity generators (the same technology used on capital ships) is used to provide pockets of gravity to major towns and cities. This technology is provided by the United Corporations of Elaya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 5 political groups of Seraph also occupy territory on Ragnath, with similar relations as on the planet. In addition, Scholae Palatinae have chosen the moon as their home, taking the largest city, Caelestis, from the Meraxis Empire and claiming it as their capital.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Albicosus====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Albicosus|Albicosus’]] surface is largely covered in sheets of ice and glaciers. Its rocky surface does periodically cut to the surface in sharply carved mountain peaks, or in the basins and crags in of the ice sheets. The rocky tectonic plates have rarely shown any movement, but the ice that covers them frequently slides across the plates, resulting in far more movement than seen on the surfaces of other planets. This can result in frequent avalanches on the planets’ sharp mountainsides.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Able-bodied and dedicated martial artists from [[The_Nayama_Dynasty|Nayama]] ventured to the high gravity planet to train their bodies to be strong, and to endure in extreme environments. To make a living they hired themselves out as honorable mercenaries, primarily employed to police Ulress and maintain the peace between the rival gangs that call it home. Unwilling to subject their families to the dangers of the moon, the Nayaman mercenaries took up camp in the old colony of the planet as a permanent base of operations. Shuttles between the planet surface and Ulress go continually as goods and people are moved to and fro.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Ulress]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - The surface of the moon is simple, rocky and icy. The moon held many great valuable minerals however, leading to centuries of mining on the moon. Over time the entire interior core of the moon was hollowed out, leaving a massive shell. The mining of Ulress goes back centuries, with civilians moving to a small mining colony on the planet, Albicosus, and then traveling back and forth to proceed with mining operations. The moon was rich with natural resources, and all the different political parties on Seraph desired to harvest what they could from the moon. When the interior of the moon had been wiped bare, the civilians abandoned the hollow moon and the mining colony on Albicosus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It didn’t take long for the city, officially named [[Ulr Uvi]], to become an outlier in the system. The corporations that led to its creation let control of the city slide into hands criminals and gangs. Commonly referred to as the Black Core, security of the moon was left to hired help from the [[The_Nayama_Dynasty|Nayama Dynasty]], who took up residence in the abandoned mining colony on Albicosus. [[House Excidium]], the shady arm of Scholae Palatinae, have taken an interest in Ulress, and see it as the perfect home for a house of their specialities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Myryakur====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The nature of the core of the planet [[Myryakur]] completely unknown. Its gases are thick and heavy. Particles suspended in the gases are charged in the planet’s rapid rotation and the gases stormy movements. These charged particles have left the planet in a perpetual lightning storm. The thick gas however masks the lightning from orbit and beyond, only noticeable once you break the outermost layer of gas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There have been multiple attempts at better studying the gas giant by the citizens of the system. Early probes faced issues with the planet’s high gravity and lightning storms, rendering most of the data they gathered unobtainable. Later ventures by some of the corporations of Seraph to establish high altitude cities have also ended in failure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Korgollo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - Korgollo Major and Minor are the two orbiting moons of the gas giant Myryakur. They are always paired together because they orbit around Myryakur together. As the moons orbit the planet, they also orbit around the center of mass between the two of them. This paired orbit has led to the locals of the system referring to them as the Dancers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Balaerion====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Balaerion]] is a freezing cold terrestrial world of barren frozen wastes. The surface is 96% nitrogen ice with traces of methane and carbon monoxide. Beneath the surface of frozen nitrogen is a thick layer of water ice. The crust is composed of two tectonic plates, bordered on a great circle perpendicular to the equator. Frequent earthquakes along this line have been known to shatter the surface down to the crust. Within the crust lie valuable resources essential for artificial gravity generators and electronics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Life on Balerion dates back a mere thirty standard years, when the [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]] established the Balaerian Detention Centre, a maximum security prison facility. Largely used as a place to send political prisoners who have spoken out against the oppressive totalitarian regime, the facility is used for mining the valuable resources beneath the ice layer, its prisoners sent there on a life sentence of hard labour. The total planetary population is 100,000, of which 90,000 are miners and the remaining 10,000 are security personnel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Cocytus System (Former)===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Cocytus System}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scholae Palatinae ruled over the entire Cocytus System until it was destroyed by the Iron Fleet of [[Darth Pravus]] and the clan fled to the Caperion System to establish a new home. Its natives were largely primitive and tribal and bent to the wishes of the Empire&#039;s superior technology and Force Powers. While the Empire swiftly took control of the 6-planet system shortly after the Exodus, they faced numerous uprisings throughout their rule from the capital world of [[Judecca]]. Now, the surface of its 6 planets are a smoking ruin, the ghost of the civilisation left behind, marked hazardous with strong risk of radiation poisoning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Allies and Enemies ==&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Due to the Imperial nature of the Clan, it is not surprising that it is largely focused on improving itself and expanding its borders, knowledge and prowess. Thus, the borders of Scholae Palatinae have been less open than others due to the Clan’s natural isolation from outside influence. At present, the clan has just recently set foot in the [[Caperion System]] and begun to establish territory on the moon of [[Ragnath]]. Due to the complex political structure on Caperion and of the Dark Brotherhood, the clan has numerous domestic threats and those further afield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its current primary goal is to expand its territory, which is currently restricted to one city, albeit the technological masterpiece of Caelestis, on [[Seraph|Seraph&#039;s]] moon, [[Ragnath]], taken forcibly from [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis]]. Scholae Palatinae will slowly and patiently expand under the same principles as Emperor Palpatine expanded his power across the Galaxy, unafraid to forge false alliances and break them when the time is right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Caperion System===&lt;br /&gt;
====Allies====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The_Democratic_Republic_of_Elaya|The Democratic Republic of Elaya]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - An unlikely ally due to the opposing political views between democracy and imperialism, Scholae Palatinae assisted Elaya in its war against the [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]], presenting itself as the best way to turn the tides in the war. The two maintain an uneasy alliance, as Elaya appreciates Scholae&#039;s support against its long-term enemy Meraxis, but are uncomfortable with another Empire gaining power in the system. Elaya possesses a military strength comparable to Clan Scholae Palatinae but vastly superior territory. The alliance is on shaky ground following Elaya unexpectedly taking territory from Meraxis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Tentative Allies====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The_United_Corporations_of_Elaya|The United Corporations of Elaya]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - A supremely rich and wealthy city state, they put credits above anything else. What their territory lacks in surface area, their control of most of the wealth in the system makes them make up for this, making them extremely powerful politically. Their highest profits are currently obtained via an arms deal with the Meraxis Empire. The Empress has tried to establish a trade deal with the UCE, but has been unable to convince them that Scholae is a stable trade partner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Neutral====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The_Republic_of_the_Force|The Republic of the Force]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - A relatively poor theocracy under constant threat of invasion from The Meraxis Empire, the TRF believe in the power of the Force and those who wield it. They have a very weak military and rely on the strength of the [[The_Democratic_Republic_of_Elaya|Republic of Elaya]] to keep safe. House [[Excidium]] have begun to try to subvert the population by using the Force to help refugees displaced by Meraxis&#039; invasion attempt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The_Nayama_Dynasty|The Nayama Dynasty]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - The Nayama Dynasty harbours a culture valuing skill in the arts - both creative and martial. Their Queen is intrigued by the combat prowess of members of Scholae Palatinae, and has hosted the [[Imperium]] summit as they sought to make a positive impression on the royal family. While no formal military alliance has been organised, there is a sense of mutual intrigue and potential for cooperation. While their military strength is mediocre, the widespread combat skills of its people act as a force multiplier in a similar way to Scholae Palatinae&#039;s Dark Jedi.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Nayaman Mercenaries&#039;&#039;&#039; - A mercenary group training in the cold high gravity world of [[Albicosus]], the Nayaman Mercenaries joined the [[Imperial Scholae Army]] during the [[Twelfth Great Jedi War]] and fought against [[The Collective]]. While their contract has finished, they would be happy to serve Scholae again if their price is met. However, they would be equally happy to serve their enemies if the price was right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Enemies====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The_Meraxis_Empire|The Meraxis Empire]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - Ruled by an ambitious tyrant focused on conquering the whole of the [[Caperion System]] by squashing all in its way, the Meraxis Empire will never accept Scholae&#039;s presence in the system as anything other than an insult, especially after they have taken the side of Elaya. Further, Scholae&#039;s only territory in the Caperion System, Caelestis city, was previously the jewel of the Meraxis Empire, and a combined Scholae / Elaya offensive pushed Meraxis off the moon entirely. Meraxis has allied itself with [[The Collective]] on the basis that they both hate Scholae equally as much. Meraxis is similar to [[The_Democratic_Republic_of_Elaya|Elaya]] in its military power and territory.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Allies and Enemies Beyond Caperion ===&lt;br /&gt;
==== Allies ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the clan can count on the support of the other clans against a greater enemy such as The Collective, it currently has no full time allies.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
==== Neutral ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Clan Plagueis]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - At one point in the distant past, Scholae Palatinae was aligned with the Clans of Satal Keto and Exar Kun. However when these two units fused into a vastly different Clan, Plagueis, a chasm was birthed between the two groups. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Clan Naga Sadow]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - A once strong alliance was [[Shattered Ties|shattered]] by Scholae Palatinae&#039;s betrayal of Naga Sadow and the theft of valuable artefacts from the Red Fury Pirates, most notably the aptly named [[The Shattering|Shattering]]. However, as recent as this feud was, the events of the Twelfth Great Jedi war put the clans back on the same side, and the future is uncertain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Clan Arcona]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - In the past, Arcona was the sworn enemy of Scholae Palatinae. This stemmed from the time when Scholae Palatinae was forced to serve as a unit of Arcona. Even after years of separation this tension continued. However thanks to the dulling power of time, and the focus of enemies like the Collective, these feelings have finally faded. While in a state of half-truce, it remains to be seen if this peace will last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Clan Taldryan]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - Taldryan was historically the dominant clan in the brotherhood, and Scholae Palatinae always had its eyes on taking them down, but out of respect and not hostility. While Taldryan no longer enjoys such a dominant position, with the dominant clans in the brotherhood being Arcona and Odan Urr, the clans maintain a mutual respect and have no significant history of conflict or formal alliance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Dark Council]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - While Clan Scholae Palatinae are extremely bitter about the destruction of the [[Cocytus System]] at the hands of [[Darth Pravus]], Clan Scholae Palatinae nonetheless belong to the Dark Brotherhood, and does not possess the resources for war with the Dark Council&#039;s Iron fleet. They grudgingly supported the council in the fight against The Collective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Enemies ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[The Collective]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - The Collective were Scholae&#039;s enemy during the [[Twelfth Great Jedi War]]. Scholae suffered heavy losses fighting this powerful organisation that hates Force users of both sides and seeks their utter eradication, inspiring the entire Dark Brotherhood to units its forces against them. They have lent support to the [[The_Meraxis_Empire|Meraxis Empire]] in its fight against Scholae.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Clan Odan-Urr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; - The Imperial nature of the Royal Clan immediately soured relations with this Light Side oriented Clan. Both have made it clear through passive-aggressive means, that if given a chance they would gladly clash with each other, however, their only interaction was on the same side as they fought against The Collective in the Twelfth Great Jedi War.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Typical Clan Actions and Reactions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Loyal to the ideals of the Empire, any threat to its stability begins the gears of war turning. Historically aggressive, they’ve been known to go to any lengths to defend the empire. Loyal, headstrong, these traits often led to trouble for the Imperial Clan on more than a few occasions/ The overly aggressive nature has been tempered over the years, with increased emphasis upon rational and thought out approaches to what serves the Clan best. Being it combat or diplomacy. In the scope of the larger Brotherhood, they are more likely to wait out the situation and analyze from afar. Only when they are certain of a course of action will they visit the full breadth of their might upon the enemy. Nothing is haphazard.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Known to isolate itself, Scholae Palatinae has a long history of closing its borders to outside influences at the first sign of trouble - internal or external - and take actions to best serve the Clan. During times of stability, the Clan has become far more open to the rest of the Brotherhood and has even begun to understand the value in garnering allies. They are however not to be crossed or the brunt of their wrath will find itself set upon they who dare betray the Imperial Clan. &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
== Important Figures ==&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
These are the former and current leaders, or any influential member who is associated with the Clan. Individuals are delegated to one of these prestigious groups; however their reach, most likely, extends into one or more of these classes.&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
Imperium is currently in devotion to keeping the Empire safe, exploring the reaches of the Empire, and securing knowledge and artifacts for the Empire to utilize in the future at the behest of the Emperor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
===The First Age Period===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Imperium was created during Emperor Xen’s reign, with Kell Dante at the helm as Imperator (Quaestor of House Imperium).  The House existed primarily as a mode for the Emperor to signify and enact his will, with Imperium controlling the ground forces and allowing the leaders of the Empire to work through the bureaucracy of an empire.  Over time, Imperium would become known as the center of all things related to the Empire, whether it was the Imperial holonews, the training academies, the background work, and scientific research.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Imperium’s might would be tested against pirates who would plan a joint attack against Clan Scholae Palatinae and Clan Naga Sadow.  It was after this attack that Kell Dante orchestrated the creation of Imperium’s first battleteam: Shadow Guard.  Shadow Guard protected the Imperator, the Aedile, and other notable House members, as well as performed stealth attacks, and first strikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the Forgotten Campaign, Kell Dante lead the House in a great battle against the Pacre Datship followers and their false Emperor. With the Judeccan Abyssal eventually attacking Ohmen, Lexiconus took it upon himself to head off the destruction of the monster. In the eyes of the Emperor and the stepping down of Kell Dante as Imperator, Lexiconus took on the face of leader of the House.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lexiconus reformed the House into a group to be reckoned with.  When the Emperor tested both of the Clan’s Houses against each other, Imperium became the victor.  This work continued into an age of false cooperation between Clan Scholae Palatinae and Clan Naga Sadow.  Vowing revenge against the pirates that had attacked them and stolen Sith artifacts from them, they launched an attack that soon divided them into who would obtain which artifacts.  Although the outcome was victorious for House Imperium and Excidium, the Iron Throne soon picked all the artifacts from the Clan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Iron Throne eventually came back for more, and decided to burn through the Cocytus System and Judecca.  In the aftermath, Imperium was homeless and aided in the finding of a new home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Lost Period===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dek Ironius II was made battleteam leader of Shadow Guard for a short time.  During this time, he had attempted to help Clan Scholae Palatinae find a new home.  He eventually stumbled on a planet with a group of clans who called themselves the Moldates: brutal warriors fighting for land all over their system.  It was during this time, most of Shadow Guard had been killed, and Dek along with the few remaining members had escaped with their lives.  Dek soon returned to Imperium, taking some soldiers and some ships and equipment with him to fight the Moldates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the search for a new home, Jurdan Krennel, Shadow Guard’s former leader, had supposedly been captured, and Lexiconus thought dead.  During this time, Kell Dante retook power of Imperium and attempted to find out who had caused the attack.  While most of Imperium’s leaders took aim at Clan Naga Sadow, Kell thought that the Moldates or another enemy may have been responsible.  His words were proven true when an assassin Ulfsark had found was chased to Moldren 11, a planet that Dek and his faction of Imperium were currently attacking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this operation that it was found out the Moldates used nuclear technology to fight their enemies.  Dek was summoned by Kell, along with Calindra to an Imperium war center.  There they planned the battle of Moldren 11.  They attacks were successful.  But Dek planted orders counter to what Calindra and Kell had wanted, placing him into prison.  Calindra became head of a new battleteam devoted to intelligence and strategy: battleteam Pallaeon.  While Wagglehorn, who lead one of the ground attacks, became battleteam leader of a team devoted to military and war: battleteam Krennic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was discovered soon that Kell already had Lexiconus safe in a bacta tank.  Upon healing, Lexiconus promoted Dek to Aedile in a sign of solidarity.  But Dek had used this time to gain allies; such as Bridge Commander Arthur McElroy, ace pilot Alphus Centaurus, and a hidden friend, Nyx Noxium.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skirmishes with the Moldates pressed on, but when the Caperion System was found and made the place of Imperium’s future home, new orders came in.  Not only did a new Empress come into power, but Raiju, a newcomer, was eventually made head of the House.  During his reign he oversaw Imperium solidify it’s base on a plethora of ships, but focused on Caelestis City on Ragnath.  He also oversaw House Imperium through its war with The Collective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Revolution Period===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually, Raiju would become the new Proconsul of the Clan, with Dek replacing him.  Dek would bring in new reforms on how the House worked, detaching it from the central Clan authority that it had always occupied.  He used his allies to gain a new foothold in the House and focused on three major strategies: exploration, battle, and knowledge.  He made Darth Aeternus his Aedile, Reiden leader of battleteam Krennic, and Wagglehorn leader of battleteam Pallaeon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this new image, Dek attempted to rally his House to fight off a new enemy with new connections to Excidium’s enemies as well as the Moldates.  Dek wanted to end the Moldate conflict once and for all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rise of Imperium===&lt;br /&gt;
After Quaestor Shadow Nighthunter became the Empress and moved on, Aedile Ric Hunter took over the reign in Imperium. He chose former Quaestor Dek  Iron&#039;yikut as his Aedile. Together, they sought to consolidate power and help bring an end to the Meraxis threat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Organization==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battleteams===&lt;br /&gt;
Until early 37 ABY, Imperium had been made up of two Battleteams, Krennic and Pellaeon. They were disbanded after the battles for Merisian and the Kiera Run. Now the House is unified as one with members now and then selected or volunteered for task force missions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battleteam Krennic===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===[[Battleteam Pellaeon]]===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battleteam Pellaeon is part of the military intelligence arm of House Imperium. Officially, members of Pellaeon source and evaluate potential threats to the house through use of covert operations and intelligence gathering. Unofficially, members have been suspected of much more proactive &amp;quot;assignments&amp;quot; against the enemies of House Imperium.&lt;br /&gt;

Imperium’s might would be tested against pirates who would plan a joint attack against Clan Scholae Palatinae and Clan Naga Sadow.  It was after this attack that Kell Dante orchestrated the creation of Imperium’s first battleteam: Shadow Guard.  Shadow Guard protected the Imperator, the Aedile, and other notable House members, as well as performed stealth attacks, and first strikes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the Forgotten Campaign, Kell Dante lead the House in a great battle against the Pacre Datship followers and their false Emperor. With the Judeccan Abyssal eventually attacking Ohmen, Lexiconus took it upon himself to head off the destruction of the monster. In the eyes of the Emperor and the stepping down of Kell Dante as Imperator, Lexiconus took on the face of leader of the House.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lexiconus reformed the House into a group to be reckoned with.  When the Emperor tested both of the Clan’s Houses against each other, Imperium became the victor.  This work continued into an age of false cooperation between Clan Scholae Palatinae and Clan Naga Sadow.  Vowing revenge against the pirates that had attacked them and stolen Sith artifacts from them, they launched an attack that soon divided them into who would obtain which artifacts.  Although the outcome was victorious for House Imperium and Excidium, the Iron Throne soon picked all the artifacts from the Clan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Iron Throne eventually came back for more, and decided to burn through the Cocytus System and Judecca.  In the aftermath, Imperium was homeless and aided in the finding of a new home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Lost Period===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dek Ironius II was made battleteam leader of Shadow Guard for a short time.  During this time, he had attempted to help Clan Scholae Palatinae find a new home.  He eventually stumbled on a planet with a group of clans who called themselves the Moldates: brutal warriors fighting for land all over their system.  It was during this time, most of Shadow Guard had been killed, and Dek along with the few remaining members had escaped with their lives.  Dek soon returned to Imperium, taking some soldiers and some ships and equipment with him to fight the Moldates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the search for a new home, Jurdan Krennel, Shadow Guard’s former leader, had supposedly been captured, and Lexiconus thought dead.  During this time, Kell Dante retook power of Imperium and attempted to find out who had caused the attack.  While most of Imperium’s leaders took aim at Clan Naga Sadow, Kell thought that the Moldates or another enemy may have been responsible.  His words were proven true when an assassin Ulfsark had found was chased to Moldren 11, a planet that Dek and his faction of Imperium were currently attacking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this operation that it was found out the Moldates used nuclear technology to fight their enemies.  Dek was summoned by Kell, along with Calindra to an Imperium war center.  There they planned the battle of Moldren 11.  They attacks were successful.  But Dek planted orders counter to what Calindra and Kell had wanted, placing him into prison.  Calindra became head of a new battleteam devoted to intelligence and strategy: battleteam Pallaeon.  While Wagglehorn, who lead one of the ground attacks, became battleteam leader of a team devoted to military and war: battleteam Krennic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was discovered soon that Kell already had Lexiconus safe in a bacta tank.  Upon healing, Lexiconus promoted Dek to Aedile in a sign of solidarity.  But Dek had used this time to gain allies; such as Bridge Commander Arthur McElroy, ace pilot Alphus Centaurus, and a hidden friend, Nyx Noxium.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skirmishes with the Moldates pressed on, but when the Caperion System was found and made the place of Imperium’s future home, new orders came in.  Not only did a new Empress come into power, but Raiju, a newcomer, was eventually made head of the House.  During his reign he oversaw Imperium solidify it’s base on a plethora of ships, but focused on Caelestis City on Ragnath.  He also oversaw House Imperium through its war with The Collective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Revolution Period===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually, Raiju would become the new Proconsul of the Clan, with Dek replacing him.  Dek would bring in new reforms on how the House worked, detaching it from the central Clan authority that it had always occupied.  He used his allies to gain a new foothold in the House and focused on three major strategies: exploration, battle, and knowledge.  He made Darth Aeternus his Aedile, Reiden leader of battleteam Krennic, and Wagglehorn leader of battleteam Pallaeon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this new image, Dek attempted to rally his House to fight off a new enemy with new connections to Excidium’s enemies as well as the Moldates.  Dek wanted to end the Moldate conflict once and for all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Organization==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battleteams===&lt;br /&gt;
Until early 37 ABY, Imperium had been made up of two Battleteams, Krennic and Pellaeon. They were disbanded after the battles for Merisian and the Kiera Run. Now the House is unified as one with members now and then selected or volunteered for task force missions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battleteam Krennic===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===[[Battleteam Pellaeon]]===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battleteam Pellaeon is part of the military intelligence arm of House Imperium. Officially, members of Pellaeon source and evaluate potential threats to the house through use of covert operations and intelligence gathering. Unofficially, members have been suspected of much more proactive &amp;quot;assignments&amp;quot; against the enemies of House Imperium.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;

One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric is assisting Shadow Nighthunter in preparing his house for the next big conflict. War is coming...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Commander [[Malodin&#039;Blade]] - Second in command of team, main pilot, and bounty hunter/enforcer.&lt;br /&gt;

Alec Monroe - Former Jedi who was corrupted by an ancient Sith trap. Monroe began to hunger for power and became a threat to both Jedi and Dark Jedi. As a result, he had a large bounty placed on him and Ric and Malodin&#039;Blade began to hunt him. After an ambush gone wrong, Monroe was killed yet in a freak mishap, his spirit survived and took possession of Rics cloned body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==DJB Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
===Positions Held===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Named Hero of Dorimad Sol in the first part of Rise of a Rebellion, leading HDS to victory over the other houses.&lt;br /&gt;
*Created the Dorimad Sol logo, after a long night of drinking :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*On a side note, those that know Ric swear that he is older than he looks. What they have yet to realize is that he had a small cloning facility set up in the frozen wastes of [[Caina]] before the system was destroyed on the orders of Grandmaster Pravus. It has since been moved to an new hidden location and continues to operate. Once his clone ages or is damaged, there is a small bio chip implanted in his brain that activates a new body. The chip also functions as a direct link to the flash learning computer to keep his memories up to date. This method does away with the gaps that had been inherent in the old system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ric led the Clan Marine Corps, serving as a High General. He was anxious to let his marines loose on some unsuspecting Vong, if they were ever foolish enough to try and challenge CSP in their home again.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was a former [[Tetrarch]] in Ektrosis, running [[Hex]], [[Phoenix Phyle|Phoenix]] and Horsemen of the Apocalypse at different times. He wears the Phoenix tattoo that marks his position and wears the medallion he earned.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Phoenix Medallions.jpg|200px|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
* These days, Blade spends his time as a weapons designer, creating new ships and lightsabers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade was also a former Grandmaster from the other club, the EHDB, as well as the last EHDB [[Sith High Warrior]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade is responsible for most of the images of Caina and [[Judecca]]. He had been working on that project from the time he entered the clan.&lt;br /&gt;
* Blade won the [[CSP Oscars|CSP Oscar]] for Graphic Arts in 2008 with 10 votes.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Commander Malodin&#039;Blade&#039;&#039;&#039; is a loyalist dedicated to his friend and business partner, Ric &amp;quot;Tater&amp;quot; Hunter. He is a very competent hunter and tactician and a very loyal member of Ric&#039;s&#039; crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin&#039;Blade was born on the Chiss homeworld of Csilla. His parents were both members of the Chiss Defense Force and had left him in the care of family soon after Malodin was born. He was raised outside of a small city by his grandparents. He doesn&#039;t have any memories of his parents other than a few holos his grandparents had saved for him. As he grew up, he learned that his parents had been killed during a skirmish with members of a human resistance force that had encroached on Chiss space. He learned that the humans had been members of the Alliance to restore the Republic and and intense hatred grew in him. He focused his  energy into becoming a soldier so that he could go avenge his parents, something that his grandfather had tried to deflect. His grandfather knew that vengeance would only get his grandson killed and had tried to temper the rage into different more useful pursuits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Malodin reached the age of mandatory military service, he chose to enter the Chiss Defense force as a pilot trainee. He learned to fly small craft up to and including transports. His desire was to learn as much as he could and then move on to avenge his parents in any way that he could. After three years of service, Malodins time was over and he had saved enough money to buy a small ship. He said his goodbyes to his family and headed out into the galaxy to find his destiny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Hunt==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin tracked down members of the Alliance for years. On on mission, he was after a member of the crew that had been at the battle his parents had died in when he ran into another man tracking the same target. Malodin did his best to slow the other down. He finally set a trap for his target only to find that his competitor had acted first. Enraged, Malodin attacked the cloaked figure. The man quickly overcame Malodins attacks and had him pinned to the wall. The man was Warrior Ric Hunter, a low level Dark Jedi that had been in pursuit of classified information.  He needed to find a cell of agents that were threatening his house, Dorimad Sol, and this man was the only one that possessed the information. As soon as Ric learned what he needed, he let Malodin loose. Ric could feel that they men would be friends to which Malodin could only laugh. As they parted,&lt;br /&gt;
Ric told Malodin he would see him later to which Malodin only grunted and doubted that they would.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Months went by and then became years, Malodin followed the clues he had gotten from the Alliance soldier and tracked a group of troops to a small outpost near Caina in the Judecca system. As he neared the target, he was intercepted by a small group of men and captured. As he was being interrogated, a shadow moved in and in a flash of crimson, cut down the four men holding Malodin. Once more the face of his savior was that of Ric Hunter, now a Battlelord and a Quaestor of Dorimad Sol. As he saw Malodin, he smiled and asked for his help. Since Ric had just saved his life, he figured he owed him so he agreed. The job was to take out the rest of the cell that both men had been tracking, not knowing that each had been working on the same mission all along.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==New Home==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the end of the mission, Ric had saved Malodins life at the cost of his own. Mal knew he would never be able to repay the debt that he had owed Ric, so he decided to offer his services to Dorimad Sol as a soldier. He landed his ship and made his way to the Quaestors office, figuring that he would talk to whoever had taken Rics place. Much to his surprise, the man sitting behind the desk was Ric. Mal never knew that Ric had learned cloning from his very first house and had gotten very good at it. Ric was honored to have Mals services and accepted him as a business partner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From that day forward, Mal had been at home in Scholae Palatinae and would do what he could to ensure that they succeed in what ever task they do.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric is assisting Shadow Nighthunter in preparing his house for the next big conflict. War is coming...&lt;br /&gt;

He was raised outside of a small city by his grandparents. He doesn&#039;t have any memories of his parents other than a few holos his grandparents had saved for him. As he grew up, he learned that his parents had been killed during a skirmish with members of a human resistance force that had encroached on Chiss space. He learned that the humans had been members of the Alliance to restore the Republic and and intense hatred grew in him. He focused his  energy into becoming a soldier so that he could go avenge his parents, something that his grandfather had tried to deflect. His grandfather knew that vengeance would only get his grandson killed and had tried to temper the rage into different more useful pursuits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Malodin reached the age of mandatory military service, he chose to enter the Chiss Defense force as a pilot trainee. He learned to fly small craft up to and including transports. His desire was to learn as much as he could and then move on to avenge his parents in any way that he could. After three years of service, Malodins time was over and he had saved enough money to buy a small ship. He said his goodbyes to his family and headed out into the galaxy to find his destiny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Hunt==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin tracked down members of the Alliance for years. On on mission, he was after a member of the crew that had been at the battle his parents had died in when he ran into another man tracking the same target. Malodin did his best to slow the other down. He finally set a trap for his target only to find that his competitor had acted first. Enraged, Malodin attacked the cloaked figure. The man quickly overcame Malodins attacks and had him pinned to the wall. The man was Warrior Ric Hunter, a low level Dark Jedi that had been in pursuit of classified information.  He needed to find a cell of agents that were threatening his house, Dorimad Sol, and this man was the only one that possessed the information. As soon as Ric learned what he needed, he let Malodin loose. Ric could feel that they men would be friends to which Malodin could only laugh. As they parted,&lt;br /&gt;
Ric told Malodin he would see him later to which Malodin only grunted and doubted that they would.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Months went by and then became years, Malodin followed the clues he had gotten from the Alliance soldier and tracked a group of troops to a small outpost near Caina in the Judecca system. As he neared the target, he was intercepted by a small group of men and captured. As he was being interrogated, a shadow moved in and in a flash of crimson, cut down the four men holding Malodin. Once more the face of his savior was that of Ric Hunter, now a Battlelord and a Quaestor of Dorimad Sol. As he saw Malodin, he smiled and asked for his help. Since Ric had just saved his life, he figured he owed him so he agreed. The job was to take out the rest of the cell that both men had been tracking, not knowing that each had been working on the same mission all along.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==New Home==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the end of the mission, Ric had saved Malodins life at the cost of his own. Mal knew he would never be able to repay the debt that he had owed Ric, so he decided to offer his services to Dorimad Sol as a soldier. He landed his ship and made his way to the Quaestors office, figuring that he would talk to whoever had taken Rics place. Much to his surprise, the man sitting behind the desk was Ric. Mal never knew that Ric had learned cloning from his very first house and had gotten very good at it. Ric was honored to have Mals services and accepted him as a business partner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From that day forward, Mal had been at home in Scholae Palatinae and would do what he could to ensure that they succeed in what ever task they do.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Commander Malodin&#039;Blade&#039;&#039;&#039; is a loyalist dedicated to his friend and business partner, Ric &amp;quot;Tater&amp;quot; Hunter. He is a very competent hunter and tactician and a very loyal member of Ric&#039;s&#039; crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin&#039;Blade was born on the Chiss homeworld of Csilla. His parents were both members of the Chiss Defense Force and had left him in the care of family soon after Malodin was born. He was raised outside of a small city by his grandparents. He doesn&#039;t have any memories of his parents other than a few holos his grandparents had saved for him. As he grew up, he learned that his parents had been killed during a skirmish with members of a human resistance force that had encroached on Chiss space. He learned that the humans had been members of the Alliance to restore the Republic and and intense hatred grew in him. He focused his  energy into becoming a soldier so that he could go avenge his parents, something that his grandfather had tried to deflect. His grandfather knew that vengeance would only get his grandson killed and had tried to temper the rage into different more useful pursuits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once Malodin reached the age of mandatory military service, he chose to enter the Chiss Defense force as a pilot trainee. He learned to fly small craft up to and including transports. His desire was to learn as much as he could and then move on to avenge his parents in any way that he could. After three years of service, Malodins time was over and he had saved enough money to buy a small ship. He said his goodbyes to his family and headed out into the galaxy to find his destiny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Hunt==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malodin tracked down members of the Alliance for years. On on mission, he was after a member of the crew that had been at the battle his parents had died in when he ran into another man tracking the same target. Malodin did his best to slow the other down. He finally set a trap for his target only to find that his competitor had acted first. Enraged, Malodin attacked the cloaked figure. The man quickly overcame Malodins attacks and had him pinned to the wall. The man was Warrior Ric Hunter, a low level Dark Jedi that had been in pursuit of classified information.  He needed to find a cell of agents that were threatening his house, Dorimad Sol, and this man was the only one that possessed the information. As soon as Ric learned what he needed, he let Malodin loose. Ric could feel that they men would be friends to which Malodin could only laugh. As they parted,&lt;br /&gt;
Ric told Malodin he would see him later to which Malodin only grunted and doubted that they would.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Months went by and then became years, Malodin followed the clues he had gotten from the Alliance soldier and tracked a group of troops to a small outpost near Caina in the Judecca system. As he neared the target, he was intercepted by a small group of men and captured. As he was being interrogated, a shadow moved in and in a flash of crimson, cut down the four men holding Malodin. Once more the face of his savior was that of Ric Hunter, now a Battlelord and a Quaestor of Dorimad Sol. As he saw Malodin, he smiled and asked for his help. Since Ric had just saved his life, he figured he owed him so he agreed. The job was to take out the rest of the cell that both men had been tracking, not knowing that each had been working on the same mission all along.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric is assisting Shadow Nighthunter in preparing his house for the next big conflict. War is coming...&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification.

&lt;br /&gt;
After a long journey and a few stops along the way, Ric had made his way back to the Brotherhood. His initial steps back in were with Clan Taldryan, his original home before returning once more to CSP. As a member of Imperium, Ric is assisting Shadow Nighthunter in preparing his house for the next big conflict. War is coming...&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is only a comlink call away if his services are ever needed...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That call has been made. Stirred out of his deep meditations deep in Wild Space, Ric received word that his beloved Scholae was in danger. Gathering his small detachment of Imperial Marine bodyguards, Ric loaded them all into a MAAT/SOC and made the trip home to Ohmen to help root out the followers of Zahn. He arrived late in the conflict but helped turn the tide on the Scion of Cocytus forces. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With his house in need, he has returned home.  &lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Ric &amp;quot;Blade&amp;quot; Hunter&#039;&#039;&#039; is the former [[Rogue]] of The Month!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a child, Ric would listen to his father talk about the exploits from his days as an officer serving in the [[starwars:Clone Wars|Clone Wars]]. He would tell tales of vast battles of huge ships in space, of flying a small fighter into the fray and coming out on the other side. He would also tell of action on the ground, being a part of several of the more famous battles that the instructors only knew of from books. These tales left an impression on the small boy and he never forgot them. Although he would spin yarns of knights fighting the evil droid armies of the [[starwars:Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatists]], he would almost never mention the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] who had been made into Generals for the fledgling [[starwars:Grand Army of the Republic|Grand Army of the Republic]]. The subject seemed to darken his mood and he would withdraw into himself as if it was like a wound that had never healed. Ric never understood the reasons behind why until years later, long after his father was dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mere thought of being a Hero, flying through space in a small fighter, and winning in the end had stuck with the small boy for years and he vowed that one day he would do such things. For most of the rest of his childhood, Ric focused on the skills that would make him a warrior, whether it was martial arts at the local gym or testing his reflexes at the entertainment district. He had a goal and would stop at nothing to get it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Ric turned eighteen standard years of age, he enlisted in the Imperial Navy as a pilot candidate. He had a lot of experience flying small craft in atmo but had never flown into space before. As he returned home to his family after enlisting and broke the news to them, his father closed his eyes and put his head down. Ric left the next day without his father ever speaking to him. The shuttle took him to pilot training at [[starwars:Prefsbelt Fleet Camp|Prefsbelt IV Naval Academy]]. He arrived and began the two year long introduction to the [[starwars:Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon after Ric graduated from the academy, he was stationed on board the Star Destroyer, &#039;&#039;Accuser&#039;&#039;. This Mark I Destroyer was modified to act as a fast reaction force to try and interdict pirate and repel rebels from convoy attacks. Ric was serving on this ship when it was ordered to [[starwars:Endor|Endor]]. During the three years that he had served as squadron executive officer, he had learned to fly every ship in the Imperial arsenal. He had also studied tactics of not only Imperial origin but rebel and pirate as well. His Wing Commander informed him that the next combat command that opened was his for the taking and he pinned captain rank to his chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The days of waiting were wearing everyone down. There was no news from command about their mission but it had to be something big. Ric would take at least one patrol a day, even if he had to volunteer for them. Anything to kill the boredom. As his flight would circle the fleet, he was in awe of the massive amount of firepower that floated there. To be honest, they paled in comparison to the station that orbited the moon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seemed to be just another day when the alarms began to sound. Every pilot in the fleet scrambled to their ships. It seemed that the rebels had bought their fleet in with the intention of destroying the new battle station. Ric jumped into his ship and lead his squadmates into the void. Once the enemy fleet figured out hat the shield was still up and the main gun was operational, they engaged the fleet at point blank range. It seemed to be an almost turkey shoot for the vast Imperial fleet sitting there. Ship after ship went down in flames and Ric saw on his tactical display that there were thousands of emergency beacons from both Imperial and Rebel pilots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a sudden shock, his ship bounced sideways. It took him just a quick second to realize that he had been grazed by a turbolaser from the Mon Cal cruiser to his left. If he&#039;d been more than grazed, he&#039;d never even known it. He limped his small craft back into the hanger of the Accuser and jumped out. The Crew chief was trying to maintain order but the battle had turned somehow to the enemies favor. Ric looked up as the Executor made its dive into the surface of the Death Star. He looked around for another ship, anything to get back out there and hit back. The visions of his youth were floating into his head and he felt as if he could highhandedly turn the tide back to their favor. He spotted a Assault Gunboat on the far side of the hanger and climbed inside. This was the tricked out version with shields and a small hyperdrive. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As he made ready to launch, a sudden shooting pain flared in his head. He doubled over in the seat and tried not to throw up. It was if someone had stabbed him through his brain with a vibroblade and twisted it. Almost as soon as the pain had started, it went away. He later found out that he had felt the Emperor die at that moment. He felt the same thing but many times over a few moments later when he watched as the Death Star itself became one with the universe. His mind was in a daze and he was now acting on instinct, he set a course into the navicomp and made an almost blind jump away from the chaos behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a few months, Ric made his way back home to Corellia. His family still lived in the same small town on the outside of Coronet City and he needed to be there. When he got there, he found the house empty of any living inhabitants. His family had just seemed to vanish. After some investigation, he found out that his father had died and his mother had taken his little sister and brother back to her families home on Naboo. It was such a distance that he knew that he would never make it there in the small ship he had now. He decided to head towards Wildspace to hide for a while. He was now considered a deserter and knew that he could never got back to the Empire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ric took on work as a bounty hunter, a mercenary as well as a pilot during his time in Wildspace. He gained a reputation of always following through on the job, no matter what it might have been. Doing this had gained him a fair share of enemies as well. One such enemy was a Hutt named Jogan. This Hutt blamed him for a cargo his competitor had stolen and hired Ric to fly to a small base. The cargo was on board a small YT-1300 and the first time Ric saw it, he had bargained with the man that it would serve as his payment. The man agreed and Ric and his Copilot had boarded the ship and got away with it. The Hutt sent a small fleet of fighters up after them and they dogged their tail all the way to the Minos Cluster. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:flight1.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Things were looking bad for Ric and his crew. The fighters were gaining on them and pounding their shields down. The navicomp could not set a course because of the gravity wells in the area and was next to useless. Ric spun the ship around and planned to engage the fighters with the concussion missiles located in the mandibles when the first craft exploded into a fireball. It was soon followed by many others.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A small patrol of Firesprays from the Star Destroyer &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had stumbled across the fight and decided to intervene. Ric was overwhelmed with relief yet filled with dread. He hoped that they didn&#039;t have any warrants out for him being a deserter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Emperor&#039;s Hammer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The force turned out to be a part of the [[Emperor&#039;s Hammer]], a small force of Imperial Holdouts on this side of the Galaxy. After a while, Ric signed up in their TIE Corps and became a member of the squadron that had saved him. Ric stayed in Cobra squadron and rose to the job of Squadron Commander. It was also here that he had received a message from his mother and requested him to return home. He went and it was there that he learned that his father had not only been a soldier in the Clone Wars, but had been a Jedi as well. This information had finally unlocked the mystery of his fast reflexes, his ability to see things as well as why he had almost had his brain fried at Endor. The overwhelming force release of first the Emperor and then the crew of the station had been too much for his untrained mind to handle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With this information he was sent to the moon of Eos to train as a Dark Jedi. He went through the academy there and went to [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]] of [[Taldryan]] to further continue his studies. It was under the instruction of his master, [[Krath Priest]]ess Bubbles that he learned the ways of cloning. This was knowledge that he would have a great use for over the years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After completing his training and attaining the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Ric returned the the Intrepid to continue his duties as Commander. Ric led many missions against the enemy and on returning from a large operation, was surprised to find as ships were landing, the pilots who were [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] were all ushered to the briefing room. On the main viewer, a message played from the Fleet Commander followed by an excerpt from the [[Dark Council]]. A massive [[exodus]] of Dark Jedi were leaving territory controlled by the Emperors Hammer. They had become dissatisfied with the power play in the Command Staff and had decided to depart. The Dark Jedi who left were declared traitors and had bounties placed on their heads. There were many who made tough choices whether to stay or leave with the clans. Ric chose to stay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not long after settling in the Taruma system, it was decided by the summit to create clones to replace some of the losses during the exodus. Most of the members of Ektrosis had DNA samples on file in the databases and it was a simple task to grow them. As a bonus, members of the summit also had memory downloads that would be reinserted into the clones minds as they matured bringing them the level just prior to the Exodus. One of these members was Ric as he had been a Tetrarch and had access to the equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lone patrol.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
As his clone grew and matured, Ric had begun serving in Praetorian Squadron, the Intelligence Divisions Elite squadron. He went on many missions there and did a two year stint as the Commander and gained the rank of General. The years went by and they started to take their toll on Ric. He moved up in the new Brotherhood that the Emperors Hammer had set up to try and gain more Force Users and reached the apex of the cult as [[Grandmaster]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during this time that Ric grew discontent with the leadership of the EH and decided to set up an exit strategy. He had already made contacts in Wildspace and had a few in the New Republic thanks to his time with the Intel Division. He planned to make use of these contacts and retire to some out of the way planet. He knew that he would need more funds as his accounts had been frozen by the petty dictator Grand Admiral Astatine. Ric made his way to the abandoned Ektrosis base and gathered up a few items he felt he would need. He loaded them onto the YT-1300, the &#039;&#039;Holdout&#039;&#039;, and launched for orbit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something pulled him to the mothball fleet at anchor. The &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; had been placed here after a downsizing of the fleet and felt the need to end his career where it had began. He did a manual landing in the hanger and entered the ship. It was a deserted ghost compared to his memories of her. After pausing at his former quarters, he made his way to the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there, staring out of the forward view point that he saw him. Clothed in a black flight suit with no insignia stood his much younger and stronger clone. After a brief exchange, the two men battled, a battle that only one of them would walk away from.[[Image:fight1asmall.jpg|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Dark Jedi Brotherhood ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was never clear exactly who had won, the only thing that was certain that a man that matched his description down to the genetic coding, left the hanger bay of the &#039;&#039;Intrepid&#039;&#039; and launched for Taruma space. Although the original man had never been to Taruma, his contacts in the Dark Brotherhood had kept him up to date on his former clan. He made his way back to find that they had left a skeleton crew to guard the system and had left to engage the Vong.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He took a fast transport from Taruma and made his way to the Shroud where the battle was going on. From the reports he had read said, they had engaged the Vong and the Vong had driven the brotherhood from the Capitol worlds in the [[Antei system]]. They had also driven [[Clan Arcona]] from their homes, which in the overall scheme of things was no big loss. After that, Ric returned to his house on Taruma and took to calling himself Blade again. He continued his training but soon grew unhappy. He decided to seek different training and was soon in the [[Cocytus System|Cocytus system]], the home of [[Scholae Palatinae]]. He entered [[house Caliburnus]] in time for the Reclamation action, [[Reclamation of Judecca|reclaiming the CSP worlds]] from the Vong Invaders.  After a short stay in Caliburnus, he ended up in [[House Dorimad Sol|Dorimad Sol]] as the [[Aedile]]. Soon, Ric stepped down to focus more on his studies of Cloning as well as other ventures. One of these ventures was commissioned by his clan summit and it involved surveying the system to see what had changed since the Vong had arrived. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:3160lightsaber.jpg|thumb|Ric&#039;s New Lightsaber]]&lt;br /&gt;
One of his other endeavors has been to develop new weapons for the legions, weapons such as the MAAT/i. The Multi Altitude Assault Transport for Infantry was based on the design for the LAAT/i of Clone Wars fame. The MAAT/i was designed for insertion from orbit and ship to ship actions.[[Image:maati2.jpg|thumb|left]] This would allow the transport ships to stay above the planetary dangers while still delivering troopers to target zones. This advancement as well as new tactics earned Ric a spot on the Military High Command as the Marshal in Command of the Marine forces. Ric took the job very seriously and helped to train the Marines into the elite force that they are currently in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the older LAAT/i gunships, the MAAT/i and SOCs can carry a full 3 squads of troops in its modified and pressurized inner hull. The LAAT was designed to drop off troops after a transport deployed them in the atmosphere of a planet and had no need for the pressure hull or the extra weight of the air systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A New Era===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once more, Ric was asked to take a position in the House Summit when he was offered the Aedile&#039;s office. He accepted as he felt that it would benefit the house in the upcoming war to retake Antei. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a time serving as Aedile, a shake up in the summit of the clan propelled Ric into the office of the Quaestor. He resumed command of  the house with Robin Hawk as his Aedile and Korvyn Elevander as the rollmaster. Ric led his small force into the Great Jedi War, Reunification. The battle was hard fought and harsh, Scholae finished third overall. &lt;br /&gt;
After the conclusion of the Great Jedi War, Ric helped keep the clan together as the settled back into a normal routine before he felt the urge to travel and continue his training. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is only a comlink call away if his services are ever needed...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That call has been made. Stirred out of his deep meditations deep in Wild Space, Ric received word that his beloved Scholae was in danger. Gathering his small detachment of Imperial Marine bodyguards, Ric loaded them all into a MAAT/SOC and made the trip home to Ohmen to help root out the followers of Zahn. He arrived late in the conflict but helped turn the tide on the Scion of Cocytus forces. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With his house in need, he has returned home.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
