Unus Per A Novus Domus was a [[starwars:Weequay|Weequay]] [[Dark Jedi Knight]] in service to [[Plagueis|House Plagueis]]. Unus is a distinct cross between a manipulator and a server; while he is more than willing to send his allies, Force Users and Force Blind alike, to their doom, he feels a distinct kinship with them and is willing to die for them.

== Character History ==

=== Early Life ===
Unus was born in the Saloqa clan on [[starwars:Sriluur|Sriluur]], named for its founder. His clan had never risen to greatness, but was one of the older ones, as it managed to avoid confrontation with practically everyone (Three clan wars, twenty small skirmishes, and one final fight against the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Vong]] in nearly four thousand years). Till he was seven, Unus was treated as all children in his clan; he practiced with weapons, medical skills, and survival skills. This training, though based on Sriluurs biosphere, remains with him and can help him survive for quite some time by himself.

Upon his seventh birthday, Unus was deemed capable and instructed to benefit the clan in some way or go hungry. He chose to work as a runner for the [[starwars:Black Sun|Black Sun]] till he was eligible to become a hunter, taking the name Servus for use among outsiders. When he was fifteen, his boss gave him a [[starwars:slugthrower|slugthrower]] to use in a raid against an opposing boss. Servus was wounded in the firefight, but managed to kill three enemies. Impressed, his boss had him work as an enforcer. Weequay contacts were very careful around him, knowing that the teenager would be willing to torture and kill on demand. Traders were not so careful, though a slug in an unimportant body part usually stopped it.

Several times, Servus was offered a more permanent position in the Black Sun due to his effectiveness and loyalty, but he refused each time due to loyalty to his Clan.

=== Hunter ===
On his nineteenth birthday, Servus was considered an adult and permitted to select a career within the Clan. He chose to become a Hunter, and was entered into two years of specialized training. When offered the choice, he often chose either a slugthrower, [[starwars:Blaster Pistol|Blaster Pistol]], or his own hands for a weapon. While this earned him more respect and more opportunities, it earned him several wounds as well; he has a variety of scars, though one stands out in particular; three lines caused from the paw of a [[starwars:Dark wolf|Dark wolf]] he attempted to tame. He was also stung, but was healed in time.

When he became a full fledged hunter, Servus led a hunting party of ten against a [[starwars:Bandigo|Bandigo nest]], which was believed to be a small one but one that would still make a good addition to the food. Instead, it turned out that there were nearly a hundred of the beasts. Unus considered his options; if he and his hunters died (none of which were recognized as spectacular hunters), then the clan would have ten less mouths to feed. If he was successful, they would have enough food to feed the clan from this alone for quite some time. He asked his fellows, and all agreed; an attack was the best option.

Servus laid several traps, and organized a raid; with slugthrowers going off to scare the Bandigos, Servus' hunting party charged the Bandigos into thirteen traps, taking off several each time. When the Bandigos finally got their sense back, they were down to seven. Slugthrowers and spears ended them. A runner was sent back to the Clan; Servus was granted an honorary position as Elder, to be increased to an actual if he survived to fifty years old (a rarity, even in Servus' clan). In addition to this reward, Servus was deemed to be capable of making good decisions and of being a proper member of the clan; he was given permission to marry.

In two months, Servus had a wife. Opposed to tradition, she was a fellow hunter; it was generally considered good practice to avoid same career marriages to avoid the emergence of castes, but there was no law against it.

When the [[starwars:Peace Brigade|Peace Brigade]] came to Sriluur, Servus managed to convince his Clan to keep up arms and oppose them, knowing full well that conquerors have never come in peace. Due to the non confrontational nature of the Clan, there has never been a true standing army, and the many Hunters were used as Soldier. Till the Vong landed, Servus' clan planned, and Servus drew upon the Black Sun contacts he had to get mercenaries.

Despite their planning, the rest of Sriluur was low tech enough that the entire planet fell. Servus was assigned on a covert mission to slaughter some landing Vong, as well as several other hunters save for a Militia kept with the Clan. After his mission was complete, Servus headed back to his Clan; he was not able to see anyone that was not slaughtered, though the large presence of Vong corpses showed that they did not go down without a fight. As far as he knows, he is the last of his Clan.

Servus did the only thing he could; he ran, stole a ship, and escaped. He ran to a close system, and considered his actions; he wanted to hurt the Vong, but he wouldn't do much damage alone. After a bit of thinking, Servus headed to the [[Jusadih System]] and enlisted in the private army of a Noble. He put down his name as Unus Per A Novus Domus, to indicate his status.

=== Soldier ===
Unus didn't serve in the Noble's Army for long; once the Invasion was over, he enlisted in the Jusadih Armed Forces. Due to his previous experience and strong will to fight and serve, Unus ended up being promoted to Sergeant rather quickly. Unfortunately, his first assignment had a 90 Blunder for his Officer In Charge, resulting in Unus often taking the reins for his unit. He tended to keep comrades at arms distance, though showed extreme willingness to assist others. Unus participated in several raids against the Jusadih Independence Corps.

Unus' service as a Soldier culminated in a mission to Morroth in which he ended up executing the [[Jedi Hunter]] [[Necal]]. The then [[QUA]] of [[House Satal Keto]], [[Kal Vorrac]] named him his apprentice and transferred him into the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Officially, Unus was moved from his unit with the only record being 'rerouted to Special Unit'. He did go to Antei for standard training, but a short bit of work from Kal made him breeze through

=== Adapt ===

==== Truth Of A Sith ====
In 33 ABY, Unus' Master, Kal Vorrac devised a final trial for his apprentice before reaching Knighthood. Kal summoned his apprentice to the bridge of the [[NSD Ascendancy]], and destroyed the Hunter's Armory Saber. While doing this, he explained that he found the Brotherhood in error, and that he was going to reveal to the Galactic Alliance of the Brotherhoods location while he started his own order in line with [[starwars:Rule of Two|Bane's teachings]]. He then pulled a [[starwars:Q4 Quickfire|Q4 Quickfire]] and shot himself in the stomach, throwing the blaster to his apprentice and screaming 'Assassin'. What the guards thought was rather obvious. Whether in a moment of fear, surprise, hatred, or confusion, Unus did not shoot his master; Instead, he escaped to [[Kapsina]].

There, he managed to fight off an attack force consisting of several Dark Jedi and forty mercenaries. He took an energy cell and two sabers; a long straight one, and a smaller curved one (which he keeps as a trophy to this day). Before he took off to the Dark Tower, he sent a message to [[Corran Force]] about what was happening so that the DJB could enter damage control. He used the longer saber, which was more suited to his fighting style, and managed to fight through to his Master. Catching Kal in a saber lock, he thrust the energy cell into the sabers. The resulting explosion damaged both fighters, and melded Unus' right hand to the saber.

Perhaps impressed with Unus' resolve, Kal revealed his purpose; this was his final trial for Knighthood. The revelation threw Unus into a rage, as he had killed Jusadaian Soldiers to get to Kal. Unus charged him once more; Kal responded by using the Force to knock him down and used his saber to remove the Weequay's hand. The entire event has resulted in Unus having a very strained relationship with his Master, though he is the first to acknowledge that, even if he doesn't need Kal, Kal is highly useful to him.

==== The final death ====

Shortly after becoming a Knight, Unus began to take on missions dealing with investigation, a likely precursor to his becoming Directorate General later on. One of his investigations led to him infiltrating a group of black market smugglers. The group was led by a female Weequay that Unus recognized as being from his Clan. After an attempt to determine if anyone else survived, the answer being none according to the smuggler, Unus felt a pull between loyalties. Hardening his resolve, he chose Plaguies, and killed the Weequay from his clan, along with the rest of the smugglers. Once again, Unus was, as far as he knew, the last of his Clan.

==== A period of chaos ====

One of his earlier assignments as a Knight was to be made Directorate General for Jusadih's Intelligence Directorate. In this position, he helped set several precedents, and even refocused the Directorate in such a way that it would be easy for it to run largely autonomously, something that he found rather important when, after a period of Chaos, Unus founded Primus Pilus with several other Plaguians to help bring order to the Jusadih system and preserve the House. During a short and bloody crusade, Unus found himself personally responsible for a wide variety of murders and terrorist attacks, killing treasonous officers when possible, simply destroying bases when necessary.

After being captured by Jusadih officials with the rest of Primus Pilus, Unus maintained that his actions were necessary given the situation. When called to the Quaestor's office for personal sentencing, Unus fully expected death at his Quaestor's hands. He was not expecting to have Primus Pilus founded as a legitimate organization and as Plagueis' official battleteam.

==== RM and leaving Pilus ====

When [[Braecen Kaeth]] had to leave the position of Rollmaster, Unus was quick to offer his services to fill in for the position. When word came about his former Master returning reached him, Unus contacted his Master and made a request; take over as Pilus Commander. He knew very well that Kal would make a much better commander than himself, especially considering the far more feral way he held himself, not to mention his much more notable political and personal power. Thus, for the very same reason that he founded Primus Pilus, he left it in the hands of someone who he, for lack of a better word, despised.

==== Ambadassador ====

As part of a plan to gain control of the second Adegan vein on Kapsina, Unus began to act as an ambassador to the Myressi, a group of Humans whose ancestors had crash landed on Kapsina several thousand years ago. While it would have been possible to simply subjugate the natives, they were very skilled guerilla warriors, and the investment of troops and resources would be far too great. A minor acoylte of the local gods, Ka'Hava'Ve, was assigned to Unus for the purpose of being a guide and a source of information about the local culture.

==== Extra Stuff ====

Will fill out if I remember what I was doing with him

==== Death (TBE) ====

Unus died during the destruction of Kapsina when it was burned during Horizons. Ka'Hava'Ve chose to leave him behind as a way of getting revenge.

== Personality ==

Unus is far from a typical Dark Jedi, and even further from a typical Sith. His status as Dark Jedi only comes about from his being a Force user and using the Dark Side of the Force. Though he is ruthless, he is never needlessly cruel. When he must be cruel, it is cold and calculated to give morale to his allies and strike fear into his enemies. He is also far to devoted and careful for the usually chaotic Dark Jedi. He distinctly disagrees with the Sith doctrine to obtain power at any reasonable cost, holding his loyalty far higher on his list of priorities.

When in most conversation, Unus speaks with careful, short, and clipped speech. It is only when having an intellectual or philosophical discussion that he expands on his speaking.

== Physical Description ==
Unus is nearly six feet tall, and accordingly well muscled with his previous training. He is agile and capable of taking a hit as well. This extends to the point where he far prefers to use melee combat against his opponents. He fully acknowledges that this mentality is due to the fact that he hates Vong and direct application of the Force is useless against them.

Unlike most Weequay, Unus lets his hair grow freely. Still, Weequay hair does not naturally let itself to freedom, and to keep it from being in a very distracting style, Unus has pulled it back into a rudimentray ponytail. The top of his head, however, remains bald due to his Weequay physiology. He prefers to keep his Peacekeeper robes on , but is more than willing to switch clothes at the drop of a hat for one of many different reasons, though usually for a mission.

Ka'Hava'Ve, known socially by the personal name 'Kave', is a Myresi Sith Warrior within House Plagueis. Illegally trained by [[Unus Domus]] before the Weequay's death, Ka'Hava'Ve

== Character History(MASSIVELY in progress) ==

=== Childhood ===

Kave spent the first twelve years of his life with his semi-nomadic parents, traveling around the desert in the primitive Myresi culture native to Kapsina. This time built up a strong set of survival skills he keeps with him, as well as general patterns of living which only desert nomads pick up, including massive water conservation and a wariness for strong daylight. His died when he was seven, and one of the most difficult lessons of desert culture was taught to him that day; waste absolutely nothing.

To this day, he keeps a small ceremonial knife with a handle may from a human femur.

For the next five years, Kave continued to travel with his father. Upon his twelfth birthday, Kave's father informed him that he had found a profession for him, and would take him to the city to learn his new trade. In less than three days, he was at the gates of the Myresi city, where he was given to a local Shaman as an apprentice and eventual successor.

=== Shaman ===

A few months into his twenty third year, the Shaman teaching him named him as a full Shaman before the city Council.

=== Meeting the Knight ===

Will be worked on once the canonical fate of Unus Domus is established.

=== Plagueis ===

Will be worked on once hte canonical fate of Unus Domus is established.

== Personality ==

Kave is best described as Affably Evil; he sees no conflict with attempting to slaughter someones entire family and being best friends, and while he makes no issue about about killing, thieving and slavery (sexual or otherwise), he is considered very nice to be around, and is always polite if such a thing is possible. This reflects his views on how one should manipulate people, often prefering the subtle and non violent method to conflict resolution. When violence is inevitable, he will often attempt to set up future plans, in the event both of them survive. This attitude makes him popular among Jusadih troops; he is seen as an officer and a gentleman. Even those who have a problem with him being so proper tend to enjoy his company. This is largely intentional on his part.

The events surrounding his joining Plagueis, however, have left him more than a bit shaken and mentally unstable. While it is difficult to notice in casual situations, it can become rather obvious in stressful situations, as he is liable to begin thinking outloud in a stream of consciousness, often involving violent thoughts and several different lines of thought crossing over and interrupting each other. Should one be close enough to hear it, it sounds rather like listening to a single side of one of three different arguments and randomly switching between them.

== Appearance ==

A desert nomad by birth and raised as such in his early life, Kave's skin is heavily tanned and darkened, both from the sun and from genetics. Deprived of moisture, he has noticable wrinkles despite his 28 years. This, combined with his full and dark beard, can make him appear several years older than he really is. His dark brown hair is often pulled back into a pony tail high on the back of his head, reaching down to just past the bottom of his shoulder blades. Much of the left side of his face is covered with tatoos, all of them holy symbols in reverance to the environmental spirits of the Myresi. The right side of his face used to contain the mark of his family, but he has had it removed and replaced with the Plagueis symbol; there is minor evidence of a tattoo removal, but it requires a few minutes of careful observation to pick it up. His eyes are a very sharp blue, and can be eaisly confused for grey under poor lightning conditions. His right hand contains a scar in the shape of an hourglass given to him by his teacher before he joined the Brotherhood. Finally, he is best described as lanky; his noticably large height and less than averge weight combine to form a very tall, very thin man.

Kave prefers to wear bright and roomy clothing, often white in colour, only layering as a matter of necessity. These vary immensly; for formal occassions, he wears Brotherhood robes, but in most situations one is unlikely to see him in the same clothing twice.

== Trivia ==

Kave is a character replacement for Unus Per A Novus Domus, who was sacrificed for the express purpose of me getting a card carrying villain.

Unus Per A Novus Domus is a [[starwars:Weequay|Weequay]] [[Dark Jedi Knight]] in service to [[Plagueis|House Plagueis]]. Unus is a distinct cross between a manipulator and a server; while he is more than willing to send his allies, Force Users and Force Blind alike, to their doom, he feels a distinct kinship with them and is willing to die for them.

== Character History ==

=== Early Life ===
Unus was born in the Saloqa clan on [[starwars:Sriluur|Sriluur]], named for its founder. His clan had never risen to greatness, but was one of the older ones, as it managed to avoid confrontation with practically everyone (Three clan wars, twenty small skirmishes, and one final fight against the [[starwars:Yuuzhan_Vong|Vong]] in nearly four thousand years). Till he was seven, Unus was treated as all children in his clan; he practiced with weapons, medical skills, and survival skills. This training, though based on Sriluurs biosphere, remains with him and can help him survive for quite some time by himself.

Upon his seventh birthday, Unus was deemed capable and instructed to benefit the clan in some way or go hungry. He chose to work as a runner for the [[starwars:Black_Sun|Black Sun]] till he was eligible to become a hunter, taking the name Servus for use among outsiders. When he was fifteen, his boss gave him a [[starwars:slugthrower|slugthrower]] to use in a raid against an opposing boss. Servus was wounded in the firefight, but managed to kill three enemies. Impressed, his boss had him work as an enforcer. Weequay contacts were very careful around him, knowing that the teenager would be willing to torture and kill on demand. Traders were not so careful, though a slug in an unimportant body part usually stopped it.

Several times, Servus was offered a more permanent position in the Black Sun due to his effectiveness and loyalty, but he refused each time due to loyalty to his Clan.

=== Hunter ===
On his nineteenth birthday, Servus was considered an adult and permitted to select a career within the Clan. He chose to become a Hunter, and was entered into two years of specialized training. When offered the choice, he often chose either a slugthrower, [[starwars:Blaster_Pistol|Blaster Pistol]], or his own hands for a weapon. While this earned him more respect and more opportunities, it earned him several wounds as well; he has a variety of scars, though one stands out in particular; three lines caused from the paw of a [[starwars:Dark_wolf|Dark wolf]] he attempted to tame. He was also stung, but was healed in time.

When he became a full fledged hunter, Servus led a hunting party of ten against a [[starwars:Bandigo|Bandigo nest]], which was believed to be a small one but one that would still make a good addition to the food. Instead, it turned out that there were nearly a hundred of the beasts. Unus considered his options; if he and his hunters died (none of which were recognized as spectacular hunters), then the clan would have ten less mouths to feed. If he was successful, they would have enough food to feed the clan from this alone for quite some time. He asked his fellows, and all agreed; an attack was the best option.

Servus laid several traps, and organized a raid; with slugthrowers going off to scare the Bandigos, Servus' hunting party charged the Bandigos into thirteen traps, taking off several each time. When the Bandigos finally got their sense back, they were down to seven. Slugthrowers and spears ended them. A runner was sent back to the Clan; Servus was granted an honorary position as Elder, to be increased to an actual if he survived to fifty years old (a rarity, even in Servus' clan). In addition to this reward, Servus was deemed to be capable of making good decisions and of being a proper member of the clan; he was given permission to marry.

In two months, Servus had a wife. Opposed to tradition, she was a fellow hunter; it was generally considered good practice to avoid same career marriages to avoid the emergence of castes, but there was no law against it.

When the [[starwars:Peace_Brigade|Peace Brigade]] came to Sriluur, Servus managed to convince his Clan to keep up arms and oppose them, knowing full well that conquerors have never come in peace. Due to the non confrontational nature of the Clan, there has never been a true standing army, and the many Hunters were used as Soldier. Till the Vong landed, Servus' clan planned, and Servus drew upon the Black Sun contacts he had to get mercenaries.

Despite their planning, the rest of Sriluur was low tech enough that the entire planet fell. Servus was assigned on a covert mission to slaughter some landing Vong, as well as several other hunters save for a Militia kept with the Clan. After his mission was complete, Servus headed back to his Clan; he was not able to see anyone that was not slaughtered, though the large presence of Vong corpses showed that they did not go down without a fight. As far as he knows, he is the last of his Clan.

Servus did the only thing he could; he ran, stole a ship, and escaped. He ran to a close system, and considered his actions; he wanted to hurt the Vong, but he wouldn't do much damage alone. After a bit of thinking, Servus headed to the [[Jusadih System]] and enlisted in the private army of a Noble. He put down his name as Unus Per A Novus Domus, to indicate his status.

=== Soldier ===
Unus didn't serve in the Noble's Army for long; once the Invasion was over, he enlisted in the Jusadih Armed Forces. Due to his previous experience and strong will to fight and serve, Unus ended up being promoted to Sergeant rather quickly. Unfortunately, his first assignment had a 90 Blunder for his Officer In Charge, resulting in Unus often taking the reins for his unit. He tended to keep comrades at arms distance, though showed extreme willingness to assist others. Unus participated in several raids against the Jusadih Independence Corps.

Unus' service as a Soldier culminated in a mission to Morroth in which he ended up executing the [[Jedi Hunter]] [[Necal]]. The then [[QUA]] of [[House Satal Keto]], [[Kal Vorrac]] named him his apprentice and transferred him into the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Officially, Unus was moved from his unit with the only record being 'rerouted to Special Unit'. He did go to Antei for standard training, but a short bit of work from Kal made him breeze through

=== Adapt ===

==== Truth Of A Sith ====
In 33 ABY, Unus' Master, Kal Vorrac devised a final trial for his apprentice before reaching Knighthood. Kal summoned his apprentice to the bridge of the [[NSD Ascendancy]], and destroyed the Hunter's Armory Saber. While doing this, he explained that he found the Brotherhood in error, and that he was going to reveal to the Galactic Alliance of the Brotherhoods location while he started his own order in line with [[starwars:Rule_of_Two|Bane's teachings]]. He then pulled a [[starwars:Q4_Quickfire|Q4 Quickfire]] and shot himself in the stomach, throwing the blaster to his apprentice and screaming 'Assassin'. What the guards thought was rather obvious. Whether in a moment of fear, surprise, hatred, or confusion, Unus did not shoot his master; Instead, he escaped to [[Kapsina]].

There, he managed to fight off an attack force consisting of several Dark Jedi and forty mercenaries. He took an energy cell and two sabers; a long straight one, and a smaller curved one (which he keeps as a trophy to this day). Before he took off to the Dark Tower, he sent a message to [[Corran Force]] about what was happening so that the DJB could enter damage control. He used the longer saber, which was more suited to his fighting style, and managed to fight through to his Master. Catching Kal in a saber lock, he thrust the energy cell into the sabers. The resulting explosion damaged both fighters, and melded Unus' right hand to the saber.

Perhaps impressed with Unus' resolve, Kal revealed his purpose; this was his final trial for Knighthood. The revelation threw Unus into a rage, as he had killed Jusadaian Soldiers to get to Kal. Unus charged him once more; Kal responded by using the Force to knock him down and used his saber to remove the Weequay's hand. The entire event has resulted in Unus having a very strained relationship with his Master, though he is the first to acknowledge that, even if he doesn't need Kal, Kal is highly useful to him.

==== The final death ====

Shortly after becoming a Knight, Unus began to take on missions dealing with investigation, a likely precursor to his becoming Directorate General later on. One of his investigations led to him infiltrating a group of black market smugglers. The group was led by a female Weequay that Unus recognized as being from his Clan. After an attempt to determine if anyone else survived, the answer being none according to the smuggler, Unus felt a pull between loyalties. Hardening his resolve, he chose Plaguies, and killed the Weequay from his clan, along with the rest of the smugglers. Once again, Unus was, as far as he knew, the last of his Clan.

==== A period of chaos ====

One of his earlier assignments as a Knight was to be made Directorate General for Jusadih's Intelligence Directorate. In this position, he helped set several precedents, and even refocused the Directorate in such a way that it would be easy for it to run largely autonomously, something that he found rather important when, after a period of Chaos, Unus founded Primus Pilus with several other Plaguians to help bring order to the Jusadih system and preserve the House. During a short and bloody crusade, Unus found himself personally responsible for a wide variety of murders and terrorist attacks, killing treasonous officers when possible, simply destroying bases when necessary.

After being captured by Jusadih officials with the rest of Primus Pilus, Unus maintained that his actions were necessary given the situation. When called to the Quaestor's office for personal sentencing, Unus fully expected death at his Quaestor's hands. He was not expecting to have Primus Pilus founded as a legitimate organization and as Plagueis' official battleteam.

==== RM and leaving Pilus ====

When [[Braecen Kaeth]] had to leave the position of Rollmaster, Unus was quick to offer his services to fill in for the position. When word came about his former Master returning reached him, Unus contacted his Master and made a request; take over as Pilus Commander. He knew very well that Kal would make a much better commander than himself, especially considering the far more feral way he held himself, not to mention his much more notable political and personal power. Thus, for the very same reason that he founded Primus Pilus, he left it in the hands of someone who he, for lack of a better word, despised.

==== Ambadassador ====

As part of a plan to gain control of the second Adegan vein on Kapsina, Unus began to act as an ambassador to the Myressi, a group of Humans whose ancestors had crash landed on Kapsina several thousand years ago. While it would have been possible to simply subjugate the natives, they were very skilled guerilla warriors, and the investment of troops and resources would be far too great. A minor acoylte of the local gods, Ja'Hava'Ve, was assigned to Unus for the purpose of being a guide and a source of information about the local culture.

== Personality ==

Unus is far from a typical Dark Jedi, and even further from a typical Sith. His status as Dark Jedi only comes about from his being a Force user and using the Dark Side of the Force. Though he is ruthless, he is never needlessly cruel. When he must be cruel, it is cold and calculated to give morale to his allies and strike fear into his enemies. He is also far to devoted and careful for the usually chaotic Dark Jedi. He distinctly disagrees with the Sith doctrine to obtain power at any reasonable cost, holding his loyalty far higher on his list of priorities.

When in most conversation, Unus speaks with careful, short, and clipped speech. It is only when having an intellectual or philosophical discussion that he expands on his speaking.

== Physical Description ==
Unus is nearly six feet tall, and accordingly well muscled with his previous training. He is agile and capable of taking a hit as well. This extends to the point where he far prefers to use melee combat against his opponents. He fully acknowledges that this mentality is due to the fact that he hates Vong and direct application of the Force is useless against them.

Unlike most Weequay, Unus lets his hair grow freely. Still, Weequay hair does not naturally let itself to freedom, and to keep it from being in a very distracting style, Unus has pulled it back into a rudimentray ponytail. The top of his head, however, remains bald due to his Weequay physiology. He prefers to keep his Peacekeeper robes on , but is more than willing to switch clothes at the drop of a hat for one of many different reasons, though usually for a mission.

Originally formed in 28 ABY by Archduke Christopher Tirk and the other Feudal leaders of the [[Jusadih System]], the '''Jusadih Independence Coalition''' once took power of the entirety of Jusadih in an effort to gain power and make decisions without the shadowy overseers of [[Clan Plagueis]]. Joined by militias from each world, the [[Crimson Tide]], and even [[Rogue]] [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] seeking a life of greater power and prestige, they attempted to receive a legitimate Senate presence in the [[starwars:Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance]] but were blocked and then thwarted by [[Plagueis]] in the [[War of Ascension]].

Today, with the Tide destroyed and the Feudalist ideals and structures long since gone, the JIC exists as a number of semi-affiliated and variably motivated splinter cells, with only the desire for their system's liberation from the iron grip of the [[Jusadih Military Regime]] uniting them. Though they still fight tenaciously and are a constant and often dangerous thorn in the side of the Ascendant House, without higher leadership, they hardly pose a real threat to the JMR's rule.

== History ==

Information forthcoming.

== Organization ==

=== Splinter Factions ===

At present, the JIC exists as many disunited splinter groups and hold-outs, lacking any deeper organization. While at times groups will discover one another and work together, overall, different cells operate on their own and are best known for performing guerrilla strikes or executing raids against government property or supply warehouses. While at times these raids succeed, overall their effectiveness is limited.

====Kogron's Raiders====

Originally part of a Regime Infantry Company, this group of soldiers defected during the [[War of Ascension]] when the [[Plagueis Summit]] gave them orders to plant makeshift explosives - cheap to make, but designed to cause gruesome wounds and horrific damage to those it hit - in the homes of citizens of [[Shintera]]. The attacks would be blamed on the JIC, which would increase anti-Feudalist sentiment and by effect increase the numbers of enlisting soldiers in the then-fragile JMR.

Before they could finish executing the order, their leader, Kogron Bast, and his most faithful troops gunned down their fellows and destroyed the explosives before they could be used. They then defected to the Jusadih Independence Coalition, no longer willing to fight for a Regime that would happily mutilate and murder its people for a bit of propaganda. Though Kogron was killed in the fight, his story became known to the entire JIC, and now serves as a source of inspiration for aspiring young rebels. Today, the original Company is diminished in number, but has attracted and trained many ready and willing bodies to help stave off and hinder Regime oppression.

While the Raiders don't have a higher command to follow or a goal in mind, their only choice is the one that they take: They fight against the target that has them down but not out. In addition to rebel forces, they have used stolen credits to purchase black market gear, weaponry, and even a group of refurbished and reactivated B1 battle droids from the era of the Clone Wars. These forces are concentrated into sharp guerrilla strikes against the enemy wherever they can attack, and while their equipment may be inferior when compared to their enemies, the training offered by the former troopers in their group often gives them an edge against enemies that lack a proper warning. This makes them a serious threat to Plagueian infrastructure if not painstakingly tracked, a difficult task as most of them know exactly how to evade enemy intelligence.

* The JIC was originally created by [[Alaris Jinn di Plagia]] as the enemy of the War of Ascension, an event that he wrote.
* Since the Crimson Tide's destruction, the JIC has gone from being a stop-gap measure in competition creation to a very real and much-changed part of the Plagueian list of enemies.
* The first use of the red armband as the symbol of JIC membership was coined by [[Vessicant]] in a fiction written for a Plagueis competition; it has been adapted as the de facto symbol of the modern Coalition.

Nova Squadron

}}

Nova Squadron was founded in 5 ABY by Taren Fenris and Lien Karlor as a small mercenary strike team. Over time it has grown and mutated to a large collection of semi-independent cells with varying MOs numbering over 9000 mercenaries. It is currenly led by Taren's Daughter, Enlora Fenris, with Karlor (despite being in his late 60s) still leading the original cell of Nova Squadron.

== History ==

=== Founding ===

Founded 5 ABY by Taren Fenris and former Imperial Sergeant Lien Karlor with Taren funding the operation, taking care of legal issues, etc, while Karlor led the original cell. It was small, only twenty five men counting Karlor. The two focused primarily on politically unstable areas (which largely continues to the present due to the nature of their business as well as various contacts and reputations Nova Squadron has built up). Taren, being almost entirely responsible for the book keeping noticed how well a beauracrat not interfering with the mercenaries business worked and raised the funds to found another cell which was given similar freedom. This practice continued for several years, with Taren occasionally adding another mostly independent cell.

=== Passing the torch ===

In 14 ABY, Nova had expanded to 9 cells and a somewhat decent beauracracy. The cells varied heavily; while Karlor's Cell continued to be small and focusing on conflict between petty warlords, others focused on high class assassinations and one, Zarcon Cell, became essentially a small army to make a former Jusadahian Noble proud, fully capable of fighting a war as a self contained fighting force. Provided one wasn't worried about 20 to 1 odds. In the later part of 14 ABY, Taren became noticably ill. The disease itself was not recognized, but he was given an estimate of one year. Two if he took it easy. Taren largely retired, placing a board of directors in his stead, though he required that all actions be passed through him before passing. He died in 17 ABY. His will left contact instructions for his family and passed Nova squadron over to his Father or, should his father not be found.

=== Profitable Chaos ===

Janti Fenris had absolutely no interest in running Nova Squadron beyond collecting money every week and living like a playboy. Which is exactly what he did upon inheriting it. Meanwhile, the Board of Directors began to drastically increase man power by permitting people to partially fund their cell it in return for using Nova Squadrons name, contacts, and assignment list. During this time, Nova Squadron maxed out at almost 50,000 mercenaries.

=== The return of the daughter ==

In 23 ABY, Enlora approached Janti with proof that she was Taren's daughter. Janti was worried that she wanted Nova Squadron, but she said that she was simply looking for a job and wanted to found a cell. Being grateful for this turn of events, Janti contacted the board and told them to provide her with funding levels normally only given to long serving Cell leaders such as Karlor (who maintained his cell despite his advanced age). While there was some objection, a simple threat to fire them and have them replaced silenced all objections; this was the only thing that Janti had ever brought up, so they didn't mind too much. Enlora focused on a high profile assassination cell.

=== A new leader ===

In 31 ABY, Janti was found having over dosed on Death Sticks. A newly revised will transfered all control to Enlora. Shortly after, Enloras cell and the Angel Cell were both disbanded with their members being paid an unusually large pension. No proof has been provided yet. Over the course of several years, Enlora has been cutting the size of Nova Squadron from 50,000 to its current number of 9340 men and 284 beauracrats. All the remaining cells (28, in total) have been cut to very successful and profitable ones. However, that's not to say that they do not get casualties; only the small cells tend to go several missions without casualties, and one cell, Cadia Cell, prides itself on the fact that they have never had a mission in which there was less than 100 casualties on their side.

== Organizational Structure ==

Nova Squadron is led by the Board of Directors, which is led by Enlora Fenris, and from there is divided into two major groups; a bureaucracy which deals with the legal, funding, job hunting, pay, and budget functions, and the Mercenary Cells, each of which reports directly to the Board. Each cell is fit to be led as the commander sees fit. On a rare occasion, orders may come to change something from the board, which are to be followed, but its usually more convenient for the troublesome cell to be dissolved and another made in its place.

== Notable Cells ==

=== Cell 0 ===

The original cell, still led by Karlor (who is now in his late 60s). Currently consists of a 31 man team with several non combat officers (technicians, a ship pilot, etc). Due to the age of the cell, it is the most experienced and the most versatile (and, consequently, the most expensive), capable of performing various tasks from sabotage, industrial espionage, high profile assassinations, and even destroying military bases and space stations.

=== Zarcon Cell ===

Another old cell, Zarcon is still the military powerhouse of Nova Squadron and will often hire itself off as a full regiment to a military. It is currently fond of hiring freelancers and using them as cannon fodder, then hiring the survivors to replace their own losses

=== Cadia Cell ===

Unique among the cells in that it existed as an independent mercenary unit before being approached by the Board to join in exchange for money management. Every member is a follower of a small but fanatic religious sect which holds dieing in battle as the only proper place of rest. Cadian initiates only obtain a single blaster and very simple (and largely useless) armor, where as some veterans having personal energy shields which are effective against most blasters. Cadia Cell prefers to take suicide missions in which most recruits fall in battle. However, the skill and capability of the Veterans mean that the organization remains effective (the psychological aspect of enemies which are simply eager to charge headlong into blaster fire likely has something to do with this).

Unus Per A Novus Domus is a [[starwars:Weequay|Weequay]] [[Dark Jedi Knight]] in service to [[Plagueis|House Plagueis]]. Unus is a distinct cross between a manipulator and a server; while he is more than willing to send his allies, Force Users and Force Blind alike, to their doom, he feels a distinct kinship with them and is willing to die for them.

Unus currently serves as the Webmaster for Plagueis, having retired from the position of Rollmaster.

== Character History ==

=== Early Life ===
Unus was born in the Saloqa clan on [[starwars:Sriluur|Sriluur]], named for its founder. His clan had never risen to greatness, but was one of the older ones, as it managed to avoid confrontation with practically everyone (Three clan wars, twenty small skirmishes, and one final fight against the [[starwars:Yuuzhan_Vong|Vong]] in nearly four thousand years). Till he was seven, Unus was treated as all children in his clan; he practiced with weapons, medical skills, and survival skills. This training, though based on Sriluurs biosphere, remains with him and can help him survive for quite some time by himself.

Upon his seventh birthday, Unus was deemed capable and instructed to benefit the clan in some way or go hungry. He chose to work as a runner for the [[starwars:Black_Sun|Black Sun]] till he was eligible to become a hunter, taking the name Servus for use among outsiders. When he was fifteen, his boss gave him a [[starwars:slugthrower|slugthrower]] to use in a raid against an opposing boss. Servus was wounded in the firefight, but managed to kill three enemies. Impressed, his boss had him work as an enforcer. Weequay contacts were very careful around him, knowing that the teenager would be willing to torture and kill on demand. Traders were not so careful, though a slug in an unimportant body part usually stopped it.

Several times, Servus was offered a more permanent position in the Black Sun due to his effectiveness and loyalty, but he refused each time due to loyalty to his Clan.

=== Hunter ===
On his nineteenth birthday, Servus was considered an adult and permitted to select a career within the Clan. He chose to become a Hunter, and was entered into two years of specialized training. When offered the choice, he often chose either a slugthrower, [[starwars:Blaster_Pistol|Blaster Pistol]], or his own hands for a weapon. While this earned him more respect and more opportunities, it earned him several wounds as well; he has a variety of scars, though one stands out in particular; three lines caused from the paw of a [[starwars:Dark_wolf|Dark wolf]] he attempted to tame. He was also stung, but was healed in time.

When he became a full fledged hunter, Servus led a hunting party of ten against a [[starwars:Bandigo|Bandigo nest]], which was believed to be a small one but one that would still make a good addition to the food. Instead, it turned out that there were nearly a hundred of the beasts. Unus considered his options; if he and his hunters died (none of which were recognized as spectacular hunters), then the clan would have ten less mouths to feed. If he was successful, they would have enough food to feed the clan from this alone for quite some time. He asked his fellows, and all agreed; an attack was the best option.

Servus laid several traps, and organized a raid; with slugthrowers going off to scare the Bandigos, Servus' hunting party charged the Bandigos into thirteen traps, taking off several each time. When the Bandigos finally got their sense back, they were down to seven. Slugthrowers and spears ended them. A runner was sent back to the Clan; Servus was granted an honorary position as Elder, to be increased to an actual if he survived to fifty years old (a rarity, even in Servus' clan). In addition to this reward, Servus was deemed to be capable of making good decisions and of being a proper member of the clan; he was given permission to marry.

In two months, Servus had a wife. Opposed to tradition, she was a fellow hunter; it was generally considered good practice to avoid same career marriages to avoid the emergence of castes, but there was no law against it.

When the [[starwars:Peace_Brigade|Peace Brigade]] came to Sriluur, Servus managed to convince his Clan to keep up arms and oppose them, knowing full well that conquerors have never come in peace. Due to the non confrontational nature of the Clan, there has never been a true standing army, and the many Hunters were used as Soldier. Till the Vong landed, Servus' clan planned, and Servus drew upon the Black Sun contacts he had to get mercenaries.

Despite their planning, the rest of Sriluur was low tech enough that the entire planet fell. Servus was assigned on a covert mission to slaughter some landing Vong, as well as several other hunters save for a Militia kept with the Clan. After his mission was complete, Servus headed back to his Clan; he was not able to see anyone that was not slaughtered, though the large presence of Vong corpses showed that they did not go down without a fight. As far as he knows, he is the last of his Clan.

Servus did the only thing he could; he ran, stole a ship, and escaped. He ran to a close system, and considered his actions; he wanted to hurt the Vong, but he wouldn't do much damage alone. After a bit of thinking, Servus headed to the [[Jusadih System]] and enlisted in the private army of a Noble. He put down his name as Unus Per A Novus Domus, to indicate his status.

=== Soldier ===
Unus didn't serve in the Noble's Army for long; once the Invasion was over, he enlisted in the Jusadih Armed Forces. Due to his previous experience and strong will to fight and serve, Unus ended up being promoted to Sergeant rather quickly. Unfortunately, his first assignment had a 90 Blunder for his Officer In Charge, resulting in Unus often taking the reins for his unit. He tended to keep comrades at arms distance, though showed extreme willingness to assist others. Unus participated in several raids against the Jusadih Independence Corps.

Unus' service as a Soldier culminated in a mission to Morroth in which he ended up executing the [[Jedi Hunter]] [[Necal]]. The then [[QUA]] of [[House Satal Keto]], [[Kal Vorrac]] named him his apprentice and transferred him into the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Officially, Unus was moved from his unit with the only record being 'rerouted to Special Unit'. He did go to Antei for standard training, but a short bit of work from Kal made him breeze through

=== Adapt ===

==== Truth Of A Sith ====
In 33 ABY, Unus' Master, Kal Vorrac devised a final trial for his apprentice before reaching Knighthood. Kal summoned his apprentice to the bridge of the [[NSD Ascendancy]], and destroyed the Hunter's Armory Saber. While doing this, he explained that he found the Brotherhood in error, and that he was going to reveal to the Galactic Alliance of the Brotherhoods location while he started his own order in line with [[starwars:Rule_of_Two|Bane's teachings]]. He then pulled a [[starwars:Q4_Quickfire|Q4 Quickfire]] and shot himself in the stomach, throwing the blaster to his apprentice and screaming 'Assassin'. What the guards thought was rather obvious. Whether in a moment of fear, surprise, hatred, or confusion, Unus did not shoot his master; Instead, he escaped to [[Kapsina]].

There, he managed to fight off an attack force consisting of several Dark Jedi and forty mercenaries. He took an energy cell and two sabers; a long straight one, and a smaller curved one (which he keeps as a trophy to this day). Before he took off to the Dark Tower, he sent a message to [[Corran Force]] about what was happening so that the DJB could enter damage control. He used the longer saber, which was more suited to his fighting style, and managed to fight through to his Master. Catching Kal in a saber lock, he thrust the energy cell into the sabers. The resulting explosion damaged both fighters, and melded Unus' right hand to the saber.

Perhaps impressed with Unus' resolve, Kal revealed his purpose; this was his final trial for Knighthood. The revelation threw Unus into a rage, as he had killed Jusadaian Soldiers to get to Kal. Unus charged him once more; Kal responded by using the Force to knock him down and used his saber to remove the Weequay's hand. The entire event has resulted in Unus having a very strained relationship with his Master, though he is the first to acknowledge that, even if he doesn't need Kal, Kal is highly useful to him.

==== The final death ====

Shortly after becoming a Knight, Unus began to take on missions dealing with investigation, a likely precursor to his becoming Directorate General later on. One of his investigations led to him infiltrating a group of black market smugglers. The group was led by a female Weequay that Unus recognized as being from his Clan. After an attempt to determine if anyone else survived, the answer being none according to the smuggler, Unus felt a pull between loyalties. Hardening his resolve, he chose Plaguies, and killed the Weequay from his clan, along with the rest of the smugglers. Once again, Unus was, as far as he knew, the last of his Clan.

==== A period of chaos ====

One of his earlier assignments as a Knight was to be made Directorate General for Jusadih's Intelligence Directorate. In this position, he helped set several precedents, and even refocused the Directorate in such a way that it would be easy for it to run largely autonomously, something that he found rather important when, after a period of Chaos, Unus founded Primus Pilus with several other Plaguians to help bring order to the Jusadih system and preserve the House. During a short and bloody crusade, Unus found himself personally responsible for a wide variety of murders and terrorist attacks, killing treasonous officers when possible, simply destroying bases when necessary.

After being captured by Jusadih officials with the rest of Primus Pilus, Unus maintained that his actions were necessary given the situation. When called to the Quaestor's office for personal sentencing, Unus fully expected death at his Quaestor's hands. He was not expecting to have Primus Pilus founded as a legitimate organization and as Plagueis' official battleteam.

==== RM and leaving Pilus ====

When [[Braecen Kaeth]] had to leave the position of Rollmaster, Unus was quick to offer his services to fill in for the position. When word came about his former Master returning reached him, Unus quickly contacted his Master and made a request; take over as Pilus Commander. He knew very well that Kal would make a much better commander than himself, especially considering the far more feral way he held himself, not to mention his far more notable political and personal power. Thus, for the very same reason that he founded Primus Pilus, he left it in the hands of someone who he, for lack of a better word, despised.

==== Leaving RM ====

As part of a plan to gain control of the second Adegan vein on Kapsina, Unus has begun to act as an ambassador to the Myresi.

== Personality ==

Unus is far from a typical Dark Jedi, and even further from a typical Sith. His status as Dark Jedi only comes about from his being a Force user and using the Dark Side of the Force. Though he is ruthless, he is never needlessly cruel. When he must be cruel, it is cold and calculated to give morale to his allies and strike fear into his enemies. He is also far to devoted and careful for the usually chaotic Dark Jedi. He distinctly disagrees with the Sith doctrine to obtain power at any reasonable cost, holding his loyalty far higher on his list of priorities.

When in most conversation, Unus speaks with careful, short, and clipped speech. It is only when having an intellectual or philosophical discussion that he expands on his speaking.

== Physical Description ==
Unus is nearly six feet tall, and accordingly well muscled with his previous training. He is agile and capable of taking a hit as well. This extends to the point where he far prefers to use melee combat against his opponents. He fully acknowledges that this mentality is due to the fact that he hates Vong and direct application of the Force is useless against them.

Unlike most Weequay, Unus lets his hair grow freely. Still, Weequay hair does not naturally let itself to freedom, and to keep it from being in a very distracting style, Unus has pulled it back into a rudimentray ponytail. The top of his head, however, remains bald due to his Weequay physiology. He prefers to keep his Peacekeeper robes on, but is more than willing to switch clothes at the drop of a hat for one of many different reasons, though usually for a mission.

Unus Per A Novus Domus is a [[starwars:Weequay|Weequay]] [[Dark Jedi Knight]] in service to [[Plagueis|House Plagueis]]. Unus is a distinct cross between a manipulator and a server; while he is more than willing to send his allies, Force Users and Force Blind alike, to their doom, he feels a distinct kinship with them and is willing to die for them.

Unus currently serves as the Webmaster for Plagueis, having retired from the position of Rollmaster.

== Character History ==

=== Early Life ===
Unus was born in the Saloqa clan on [[starwars:Sriluur|Sriluur]], named for its founder. His clan had never risen to greatness, but was one of the older ones, as it managed to avoid confrontation with practically everyone (Three clan wars, twenty small skirmishes, and one final fight against the [[starwars:Yuuzhan_Vong|Vong]] in nearly four thousand years). Till he was seven, Unus was treated as all children in his clan; he practiced with weapons, medical skills, and survival skills. This training, though based on Sriluurs biosphere, remains with him and can help him survive for quite some time by himself.

Upon his seventh birthday, Unus was deemed capable and instructed to benefit the clan in some way or go hungry. He chose to work as a runner for the [[starwars:Black_Sun|Black Sun]] till he was eligible to become a hunter, taking the name Servus for use among outsiders. When he was fifteen, his boss gave him a [[starwars:slugthrower|slugthrower]] to use in a raid against an opposing boss. Servus was wounded in the firefight, but managed to kill three enemies. Impressed, his boss had him work as an enforcer. Weequay contacts were very careful around him, knowing that the teenager would be willing to torture and kill on demand. Traders were not so careful, though a slug in an unimportant body part usually stopped it.

Several times, Servus was offered a more permanent position in the Black Sun due to his effectiveness and loyalty, but he refused each time due to loyalty to his Clan.

=== Hunter ===
On his nineteenth birthday, Servus was considered an adult and permitted to select a career within the Clan. He chose to become a Hunter, and was entered into two years of specialized training. When offered the choice, he often chose either a slugthrower, [[starwars:Blaster_Pistol|Blaster Pistol]], or his own hands for a weapon. While this earned him more respect and more opportunities, it earned him several wounds as well; he has a variety of scars, though one stands out in particular; three lines caused from the paw of a [[starwars:Dark_wolf|Dark wolf]] he attempted to tame. He was also stung, but was healed in time.

When he became a full fledged hunter, Servus led a hunting party of ten against a [[starwars:Bandigo|Bandigo nest]], which was believed to be a small one but one that would still make a good addition to the food. Instead, it turned out that there were nearly a hundred of the beasts. Unus considered his options; if he and his hunters died (none of which were recognized as spectacular hunters), then the clan would have ten less mouths to feed. If he was successful, they would have enough food to feed the clan from this alone for quite some time. He asked his fellows, and all agreed; an attack was the best option.

Servus laid several traps, and organized a raid; with slugthrowers going off to scare the Bandigos, Servus' hunting party charged the Bandigos into thirteen traps, taking off several each time. When the Bandigos finally got their sense back, they were down to seven. Slugthrowers and spears ended them. A runner was sent back to the Clan; Servus was granted an honorary position as Elder, to be increased to an actual if he survived to fifty years old (a rarity, even in Servus' clan). In addition to this reward, Servus was deemed to be capable of making good decisions and of being a proper member of the clan; he was given permission to marry.

In two months, Servus had a wife. Opposed to tradition, she was a fellow hunter; it was generally considered good practice to avoid same career marriages to avoid the emergence of castes, but there was no law against it.

When the [[starwars:Peace_Brigade|Peace Brigade]] came to Sriluur, Servus managed to convince his Clan to keep up arms and oppose them, knowing full well that conquerors have never come in peace. Due to the non confrontational nature of the Clan, there has never been a true standing army, and the many Hunters were used as Soldier. Till the Vong landed, Servus' clan planned, and Servus drew upon the Black Sun contacts he had to get mercenaries.

Despite their planning, the rest of Sriluur was low tech enough that the entire planet fell. Servus was assigned on a covert mission to slaughter some landing Vong, as well as several other hunters save for a Militia kept with the Clan. After his mission was complete, Servus headed back to his Clan; he was not able to see anyone that was not slaughtered, though the large presence of Vong corpses showed that they did not go down without a fight. As far as he knows, he is the last of his Clan.

Servus did the only thing he could; he ran, stole a ship, and escaped. He ran to a close system, and considered his actions; he wanted to hurt the Vong, but he wouldn't do much damage alone. After a bit of thinking, Servus headed to the [[Jusadih System]] and enlisted in the private army of a Noble. He put down his name as Unus Per A Novus Domus, to indicate his status.

=== Soldier ===
Unus didn't serve in the Noble's Army for long; once the Invasion was over, he enlisted in the Jusadih Armed Forces. Due to his previous experience and strong will to fight and serve, Unus ended up being promoted to Sergeant rather quickly. Unfortunately, his first assignment had a 90 Blunder for his Officer In Charge, resulting in Unus often taking the reins for his unit. He tended to keep comrades at arms distance, though showed extreme willingness to assist others. Unus participated in several raids against the Jusadih Independence Corps.

Unus' service as a Soldier culminated in a mission to Morroth in which he ended up executing the [[Jedi Hunter]] [[Necal]]. The then [[QUA]] of [[House Satal Keto]], [[Kal Vorrac]] named him his apprentice and transferred him into the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Officially, Unus was moved from his unit with the only record being 'rerouted to Special Unit'. He did go to Antei for standard training, but a short bit of work from Kal made him breeze through

=== Adapt ===

==== Truth Of A Sith ====
In 33 ABY, Unus' Master, Kal Vorrac devised a final trial for his apprentice before reaching Knighthood. Kal summoned his apprentice to the bridge of the [[NSD Ascendancy]], and destroyed the Hunter's Armory Saber. While doing this, he explained that he found the Brotherhood in error, and that he was going to reveal to the Galactic Alliance of the Brotherhoods location while he started his own order in line with [[starwars:Rule_of_Two|Bane's teachings]]. He then pulled a [[starwars:Q4_Quickfire|Q4 Quickfire]] and shot himself in the stomach, throwing the blaster to his apprentice and screaming 'Assassin'. What the guards thought was rather obvious. Whether in a moment of fear, surprise, hatred, or confusion, Unus did not shoot his master; Instead, he escaped to [[Kapsina]].

There, he managed to fight off an attack force consisting of several Dark Jedi and forty mercenaries. He took an energy cell and two sabers; a long straight one, and a smaller curved one (which he keeps as a trophy to this day). Before he took off to the Dark Tower, he sent a message to [[Corran Force]] about what was happening so that the DJB could enter damage control. He used the longer saber, which was more suited to his fighting style, and managed to fight through to his Master. Catching Kal in a saber lock, he thrust the energy cell into the sabers. The resulting explosion damaged both fighters, and melded Unus' right hand to the saber.

Perhaps impressed with Unus' resolve, Kal revealed his purpose; this was his final trial for Knighthood. The revelation threw Unus into a rage, as he had killed Jusadaian Soldiers to get to Kal. Unus charged him once more; Kal responded by using the Force to knock him down and used his saber to remove the Weequay's hand. The entire event has resulted in Unus having a very strained relationship with his Master, though he is the first to acknowledge that, even if he doesn't need Kal, Kal is highly useful to him.

==== The final death ====

Shortly after becoming a Knight, Unus began to take on missions dealing with investigation, a likely precursor to his becoming Directorate General later on. One of his investigations led to him infiltrating a group of black market smugglers. The group was led by a female Weequay that Unus recognized as being from his Clan. After an attempt to determine if anyone else survived, the answer being none according to the smuggler, Unus felt a pull between loyalties. Hardening his resolve, he chose Plaguies, and killed the Weequay from his clan, along with the rest of the smugglers. Once again, Unus was, as far as he knew, the last of his Clan.

==== A period of chaos ====

One of his earlier assignments as a Knight was to be made Directorate General for Jusadih's Intelligence Directorate. In this position, he helped set several precedents, and even refocused the Directorate in such a way that it would be easy for it to run largely autonomously, something that he found rather important when, after a period of Chaos, Unus founded Primus Pilus with several other Plaguians to help bring order to the Jusadih system and preserve the House. During a short and bloody crusade, Unus found himself personally responsible for a wide variety of murders and terrorist attacks, killing treasonous officers when possible, simply destroying bases when necessary.

After being captured by Jusadih officials with the rest of Primus Pilus, Unus maintained that his actions were necessary given the situation. When called to the Quaestor's office for personal sentencing, Unus fully expected death at his Quaestor's hands. He was not expecting to have Primus Pilus founded as a legitimate organization and as Plagueis' official battleteam.

==== RM and leaving Pilus ====

When [[Braecen Kaeth]] had to leave the position of Rollmaster, Unus was quick to offer his services to fill in for the position. When word came about his former Master returning reached him, Unus quickly contacted his Master and made a request; take over as Pilus Commander. He knew very well that Kal would make a much better commander than himself, especially considering the far more feral way he held himself, not to mention his far more notable political and personal power. Thus, for the very same reason that he founded Primus Pilus, he left it in the hands of someone who he, for lack of a better word, despised.

==== Leaving RM ====

As part of a plan to gain control of the second Adegan vein on Kapsina, Unus has begun to act as an ambassador to the Myresi.

== Personality ==

Unus is far from a typical Dark Jedi, and even further from a typical Sith. His status as Dark Jedi only comes about from his being a Force user and using the Dark Side of the Force. Though he is ruthless, he is never needlessly cruel. When he must be cruel, it is cold and calculated to give morale to his allies and strike fear into his enemies. He is also far to devoted and careful for the usually chaotic Dark Jedi. He distinctly disagrees with the Sith doctrine to obtain power at any reasonable cost, holding his loyalty far higher on his list of priorities.

When in most conversation, Unus speaks with careful, short, and clipped speech. It is only when having an intellectual or philosophical discussion that he expands on his speaking.

== Physical Description ==
Unus is nearly six feet tall, and accordingly well muscled with his previous training. He is agile and capable of taking a hit as well. This extends to the point where he far prefers to use melee combat against his opponents. He fully acknowledges that this mentality is due to the fact that he hates Vong and direct application of the Force is useless against them.

Unlike most Weequay, Unus lets his hair grow freely. Still, Weequay hair does not naturally let itself to freedom, and to keep it from being in a very distracting style, Unus has pulled it back into a rudimentray ponytail. The top of his head, however, remains bald due to his Weequay physiology. He prefers to keep his Peacekeeper robes on, but is more than willing to switch clothes at the drop of a hat for one of many different reasons, though usually for a mission.

Necal was a Farghul within House Satal Keto of Clan Plagueis, apprenticed to [[Kal Vorrac]]. He was slain in an attempt to kill his Master, being thwarted by his soon to be replacement [[Unus Domus]]

== Character History ==

=== Early life ===
Coming eventually.

=== Smuggler ===
Coming eventually.

=== A New Name ===
After being the captain of his own smuggling ship for just over eight years, Necal was alerted by his mother to the death of his fater. Coming home, he attended his fathers funeral, during which he invoked a family tradition, in which he voluntarily inherited more than his fathers property; he inherited his debts, duties, and even name.

Necal believed that his father was not in an accident, as he was said to have died, but was rather sabotaged, likely by competition. Necal would spend the next fifteen years of his life placing avenging his father as his goal.

=== A hunt for vengeance ===

=== Killing the killer ===
After waiting several days after capturing Ventic, Necal finally decided what he was going to do with him.

Having his men hold Ventic down, Necal poured molten silver down his throat and in his eyes, then left him there to writhe in agony till his death.

Coming eventually.

=== More stuff ===

=== Joining the brotherhood ===
Coming eventually

=== Apprenticeship ===
Necal is currently apprenticed to Kal Vorrac. During a mission assigned to him by his master, Necal was abbandoned on Raxus Prime, and was given little instruction on what to do. He managed to retreat to a salvager camp, where he encountered a female Cathar and temporary ally by the name of Alri. During a discussion, the salvager camp was attacked by his masters trap; sixteen YVH droids. He and Alri managed to escape from the droids, and set a ship to auto destruct when the droids entered. Escaping on an old smuggling ship owned by Alri, the two quickly went to Morroth, it being Necal's plan to end Alri's life when they reached Morroth (due to the necessity of fuel, and his lack of credits). Touching down on Naboo, Necal's Master, Kal, stopped the two, though he was in disguise.

After a brief scuffle, Kal implied that he would spare Necal's life if he killed Alri. Deciding he could find another pilot if necessary, Necal killed her. Kal, revealing himself, demanded that his apprentice kneel before him and swear his loyalty. Though it was greatly implied that such swearing had little worth, Necal complied. Demanding that his apprentice hold out his hand, Kal carved an hourglass symbol on his hand, similar to his own. Necal views it as a badge of honor, his masters acceptance of him as his apprentice.

== Personality ==
Necal is, for lack of a better word, insane. A pyromaniac, Necal enjoys burning things in his spare time, though he is more than able to suppress the urge when necessary. Necal's personal philosophy about the dark side can be summed up based on his response to his master saying; Hate will bring you power. Necal's response was 'But without control, you turn into little more than a slave of your own emotions. All the power in the universe is useless to a slave.'

Necal has an avid hatred of crowds, which has made him begin to walk quickly in order to get out quicker. This has evolved to almost running being his normal pace. This may reflect his thinking, which goes at an unusual rate. This can, and often does, result in stuttering when he speaks unless he makes a point to think out every sentence. Necal often goes to extreme ends to annoy people he doesn't like, though he is always careful not to anger someone who will kill him unless the reward is greater than the risk.

== DJB Facts ==

=== Positions Held ===
None.

=== Outstanding Achievements ===
None.

== Trivia ==
Generally slow to actually trust someone, though willing to accept guidance from a superior.

Will sometimes go to unusual lengths to make a point to a superior.

Necal's name was, at first, supposed to be the core name of a Chiss, though the species was changed after a short time.

Necal's original name was She'Sar, a name found by googling 'Farghul Name'.

Necals personal mission is, currently, to pass all Shadow Academy exams offered at the given time. He is aware this will take forever.

Necal makes a point to keep the scar given to him by his master eaisly shown to everyone. When asked, Necal only replies 'it was a gift. I like it.'

Despite being a more or less successful smuggling captain for eight straight years, Necal has only a passing knowledge of flight, and would be useless doing anything but running in a fight.

The Plagueis Summit is the governing body of [[Plagueis|House Plagueis]] and the Command body of its system government, the [[Jusadih Military Regime]]. As the Ascendant House has a unique viewpoint on the Brotherhood and an ever-adapting way of doing things, each of its Summit Positions perform a very specific job. However, with each new appointment comes change, and thus these changes are recorded for the use of its members.

==History==

Description of the PLA Summit's tenuous history soon to come.

==Summit Members==

These members comprise the Plagueis Summit and control the affairs of the House.

===Quaestor: [[Tra'an Reith]]===

Stoic, capable, and adaptive; these words fit the Quaestor of Plagueis well. A Shi'ido, the shapeshifting Tra'an Reith leads the Ascendant House toward the path of dominance and victory. While he is wise when it comes to his own safety and a brilliant tactician, Reith never shies away from a role in combat; indeed, in a move that irritates his colleagues and followers, he is often the first on the battlefield when a battle breaks out. Ultimately, this is descriptive of his leadership - he is never afraid to get his hands dirty.

====Duties====
*Plan all major events for Plagueis.
*Plan out Plagueian storyline.
*Designate tasks to appropriate members on a satisfactory timeline.
*Liaise with the Dark Council and Dark Summit on behalf of Plagueis.
*Get to know members and listen to ideas and suggestions.
*Ensure all tasks, projects, and necessary work is done and complete on time.
*Police Plagueian Summit and ensure no weakness, laziness, or inappropriate behavior creeps in.

===Aedile: [[Sarak Shai]]===

Twisted and vile, Sarak Shai is a caricature of what is wrong with Yuuzhan Vong culture; covered in sores and scars, with coral plates grafted to his legs, an extra rib cage grafted over his chest, black yammosk tentacles giving him Force sensitivity, and hooks to pin his face into a permanent grin, he is a perfect expression of horrific corruption. This visage, moreso than amphistaff or lightsaber, is what strikes terror into the enemies of the Quaestor and keeps those that his Aedile is sent to oversee in line.

====Duties====

Currently, the duties of the Aedile include the following.

*Managing all projects assigned by the Quaestor.
*Designating duties to assistants in each project.
*Following up on projects, ensuring completion.
*Getting into direct contact with members on activity.
*Ensuring the creation of competitions and events in accordance with the Quaestor's plans.

===Rollmaster: [[Arcadian]]===

Description of Arcadian to come.

====Duties====

Currently, the duties of the Rollmaster include the following.

* Contacting new members
* Maintaining the Plagueis mailing list
* Providing HTML assistance to other Summit members and Summit assistants
* Overseeing the [[Plagueian Path]] according to all current MSP policies.

These duties are subject to change at any given time.

==Summit Assistants==

These members, while not a true part of the Summit, still assist it in Battleteam or unofficial capacities. Outside of Battleteams, their positions do not carry any true power and exist only to aid the Leadership.

===Primus Pilus Commander: [[Kal di Plagia Vorrac]]===

Cold, calculating, and methodical, Kal Vorrac is a man without remorse or pity. As hard as the durasteel in his saber hilt and as merciless as the howling winds of Morroth, he is dedicated above all to his goals and plots. Friendships, material possessions, and even lives are nothing but pawns on a dejarik board to him. He would have been dead many years ago, except for two qualities: He is incredibly useful and incredibly dangerous.

====Duties====
*Create competitions and events for Primus Pilus that mesh with the Summit storyline.
*Create and maintain a set of clear-cut, easy to read policies for the Team.
*Appoint Flight Leaders to positions Minor and Superior.
*Train Flight Leaders on subjects like Wiki maintenance, competition planning, event planning, reporting, and conflict mediation.
*Maintain and Improve Pilus Article on the Wiki.
*Seek new members for the team.
*Train Leader Superior until ready for Commander, then step down, allowing succession and growth.

=====Pilus Leader Superior: [[Furios]]=====

Tenacious and eager, Furios is the Leader Superior of Pilus and seeks to maintain that title. Training under the skilled and unforgiving eye of Vorrac, he seeks to replace the Sith and train two Leaders of his own. Hard-working, ready to learn, and unafraid to do dirty work to meet his goals, he seems to be exactly what the Ascendant House wants in its leaders. However, soon, he will have competition - no Leader Superior can Ascend unless a Leader Minor is there to compete with him.

=====Pilus Leader Minor: TBA=====

At present, Pilus has no Leader Minor.

===Taskmaster: [[Kal di Plagia Vorrac]]===

The Taskmaster of Plagueis operates as an extension of the Rollmaster and indeed trains for the superior role; an unofficial position, this is nevertheless a vital one as it oversees the Journeymen of the House. Each Taskmaster's methods are as different as the Mantles they wear, and yet, they have one goal in mind: Weeding out the weak and fostering strength and power in the new blood of Plagueis.

====Duties====
*Email all Journeymen on a regular basis to encourage activity.
*Assist any and all Journeymen that need help.
*Plan competitions and events to engage Journeymen.
*Inform Journeymen about vital site resources - Shadow Academy, Forums, Wiki, IRC, etc.
*Keep Journeymen up to date on future promotion requirements.
*Report to the Rollmaster on Journeyman activity on a weekly basis.

===Webmaster: [[Unus Domus]]===

The Webmaster exists, as the name implies, to manage the Plagueis Website. The exact duties, responsibilities, and freedoms vary heavily, and are primarily related to the association between the Webmaster and the rest of the Summit; if the Webmaster is trusted and experienced, they have quite a bit of freedom. A newer one or one whom a summit member has doubts about is far more restricted.

====Duties====
*Maintain Leadership, Webteam, and Summit sections on Plagueis Website main page.
*Maintain competition list for Plagueis and Battleteams.
*Assist members with navigating Plagueis website.
*Assist summit members with learning how to use the website for their duties.
*Keep Plagueis Website main page updated
*Train future Webmasters; outside help cannot be relied upon, and Plagueis must learn to draw from within.

==Members and Assistants: Assignment of Duty==

The Summit of Plagueis is in command of all aspects of the House, and assigns its duties properly and intelligently. However, at times, the Summit alone cannot handle the full burden before them. It is in this time that Summit Assistants take up roles, whether already existing or newly created. Summit members like the Quaestor, Aedile, and Rollmaster handle major tasks, creating a storyline, a future, and an activity base for the House while ensuring Plagueis grows and lives on no matter what.

Summit Assistants are often in training roles, while performing lesser duties or duties too numerous for one Summit member to handle. In this way, they get a sense of duty while still performing pivotal roles. While Summit assistants are rarely in official roles of power and never too high on the food chain, assisting the Quaestor, Aedile, and Rollmaster is an invaluable way to gain skill and garner rewards and promotions.

==Ascendant Succession - Training the Future==

The entirety of the Plagueian Summit is designed with one goal in mind: Ascendant Succession. A problem of Plagueis has traditionally been a lack of leaders to pass the torch to; to combat this trend, every position up to Quaestor trains one to fill its shoes. At the bottom of the pile, the Commander of Pilus trains two Flight Leaders, one Minor and one Superior, in the skills they need for the job; the Flight Leader to replace the Commander repeats the process, while the Commander becomes a candidate for Aedile.

The Aedile position exists to learn from the Quaestor as well as to ensure the Quaestor's work is accomplished; in the same way that a Flight Leader will take over certain Commander duties to learn how to do them properly, so too will the Aedile's work ready him or her for Quaestor. The Quaestor is the vital component here; if a Leader stops teaching or refuses to learn, he must take action and prevent the stagnation of the Summit.

The Rollmaster and Taskmaster positions exist with this duality, as do the Masters of the Plagueian Master/Student Program. Masters train their Students to be Knights while at the same time learning how to instruct new members. In time, certain Masters become Taskmasters, overseeing all of the Journeymen and their instruction and learning what it takes to teach new members. Ultimately, the Rollmaster teaches the Taskmaster how to do his or her job and maintain the Master/Student Program, using prerequisite experience to ensure everyone is doing their job. In a similar manner, the Webmaster instructs individuals on the finer points of maintenance; these are usually summit members or summit assistants, as Webmaster is a low intensity job and can, in an emergency, be handled in addition to other duties.

Altogether, the structure of the entire Summit is built to keep going if a position is lost and to instruct new members for the future - both key components of a successful Brotherhood House.

==Trivia==
* Article created by Kal Vorrac.
* PLA's Summit has often been faced with a tenuous sense of unity and a shaky list of duties; this article was created to rectify that problem.

*Police Plagueian Summit and ensure no weakness, laziness, or inappropriate behavior creeps in.

===Aedile: [[Sarak Shai]]===

Twisted and vile, Sarak Shai is a caricature of what is wrong with Yuuzhan Vong culture; covered in sores and scars, with coral plates grafted to his legs, an extra rib cage grafted over his chest, black yammosk tentacles giving him Force sensitivity, and hooks to pin his face into a permanent grin, he is a perfect expression of horrific corruption. This visage, moreso than amphistaff or lightsaber, is what strikes terror into the enemies of the Quaestor and keeps those that his Aedile is sent to oversee in line.

====Duties====

Currently, the duties of the Aedile include the following.

*Managing all projects assigned by the Quaestor.
*Designating duties to assistants in each project.
*Following up on projects, ensuring completion.
*Getting into direct contact with members on activity.
*Ensuring the creation of competitions and events in accordance with the Quaestor's plans.

===Rollmaster: [[Arcadian]]===

Description of Arcadian to come.

====Duties====

Currently, the duties of the Rollmaster include the following.

* Contacting new members
* Maintaining the Plagueis mailing list
* Providing HTML assistance to other Summit members and Summit assistants
* Overseeing the [[Plagueian Path]] according to all current MSP policies.

These duties are subject to change at any given time.

==Summit Assistants==

These members, while not a true part of the Summit, still assist it in Battleteam or unofficial capacities. Outside of Battleteams, their positions do not carry any true power and exist only to aid the Leadership.

===Primus Pilus Commander: [[Kal di Plagia Vorrac]]===

Cold, calculating, and methodical, Kal Vorrac is a man without remorse or pity. As hard as the durasteel in his saber hilt and as merciless as the howling winds of Morroth, he is dedicated above all to his goals and plots. Friendships, material possessions, and even lives are nothing but pawns on a dejarik board to him. He would have been dead many years ago, except for two qualities: He is incredibly useful and incredibly dangerous.

====Duties====
*Create competitions and events for Primus Pilus that mesh with the Summit storyline.
*Create and maintain a set of clear-cut, easy to read policies for the Team.
*Appoint Flight Leaders to positions Minor and Superior.
*Train Flight Leaders on subjects like Wiki maintenance, competition planning, event planning, reporting, and conflict mediation.
*Maintain and Improve Pilus Article on the Wiki.
*Seek new members for the team.
*Train Leader Superior until ready for Commander, then step down, allowing succession and growth.

=====Pilus Leader Superior: [[Furios]]=====

Tenacious and eager, Furios is the Leader Superior of Pilus and seeks to maintain that title. Training under the skilled and unforgiving eye of Vorrac, he seeks to replace the Sith and train two Leaders of his own. Hard-working, ready to learn, and unafraid to do dirty work to meet his goals, he seems to be exactly what the Ascendant House wants in its leaders. However, soon, he will have competition - no Leader Superior can Ascend unless a Leader Minor is there to compete with him.

=====Pilus Leader Minor: TBA=====

At present, Pilus has no Leader Minor.

===Taskmaster: [[Kal di Plagia Vorrac]]===

The Taskmaster of Plagueis operates as an extension of the Rollmaster and indeed trains for the superior role; an unofficial position, this is nevertheless a vital one as it oversees the Journeymen of the House. Each Taskmaster's methods are as different as the Mantles they wear, and yet, they have one goal in mind: Weeding out the weak and fostering strength and power in the new blood of Plagueis.

====Duties====
*Email all Journeymen on a regular basis to encourage activity.
*Assist any and all Journeymen that need help.
*Plan competitions and events to engage Journeymen.
*Inform Journeymen about vital site resources - Shadow Academy, Forums, Wiki, IRC, etc.
*Keep Journeymen up to date on future promotion requirements.
*Report to the Rollmaster on Journeyman activity on a weekly basis.

===Webmaster: [[Unus Domus]]===

The Webmaster exists, as the name implies, to manage the Plagueis Website. The exact duties, responsibilities, and freedoms vary heavily, and are primarily related to the association between the Webmaster and the rest of the Summit; if the Webmaster is trusted and experienced, they have quite a bit of freedom. A newer one or one whom a summit member has doubts about is far more restricted.

====Duties====
*Maintain Leadership, Webteam, and Summit sections on Plagueis Website main page.
*Maintain competition list for Plagueis and Battleteams.
*Assist members with navigating Plagueis website.
*Assist summit members with learning how to use the website for their duties.
*Keep Plagueis Website main page updated
*Train future Webmasters; outside help cannot be relied upon, and Plagueis must learn to draw from within.

==Members and Assistants: Assignment of Duty==

The Summit of Plagueis is in command of all aspects of the House, and assigns its duties properly and intelligently. However, at times, the Summit alone cannot handle the full burden before them. It is in this time that Summit Assistants take up roles, whether already existing or newly created. Summit members like the Quaestor, Aedile, and Rollmaster handle major tasks, creating a storyline, a future, and an activity base for the House while ensuring Plagueis grows and lives on no matter what.

Summit Assistants are often in training roles, while performing lesser duties or duties too numerous for one Summit member to handle. In this way, they get a sense of duty while still performing pivotal roles. While Summit assistants are rarely in official roles of power and never too high on the food chain, assisting the Quaestor, Aedile, and Rollmaster is an invaluable way to gain skill and garner rewards and promotions.

==Ascendant Succession - Training the Future==

The entirety of the Plagueian Summit is designed with one goal in mind: Ascendant Succession. A problem of Plagueis has traditionally been a lack of leaders to pass the torch to; to combat this trend, every position up to Quaestor trains one to fill its shoes. At the bottom of the pile, the Commander of Pilus trains two Flight Leaders, one Minor and one Superior, in the skills they need for the job; the Flight Leader to replace the Commander repeats the process, while the Commander becomes a candidate for Aedile.

The Aedile position exists to learn from the Quaestor as well as to ensure the Quaestor's work is accomplished; in the same way that a Flight Leader will take over certain Commander duties to learn how to do them properly, so too will the Aedile's work ready him or her for Quaestor. The Quaestor is the vital component here; if a Leader stops teaching or refuses to learn, he must take action and prevent the stagnation of the Summit.

The Rollmaster and Taskmaster positions exist with this duality, as do the Masters of the Plagueian Master/Student Program. Masters train their Students to be Knights while at the same time learning how to instruct new members. In time, certain Masters become Taskmasters, overseeing all of the Journeymen and their instruction and learning what it takes to teach new members. Ultimately, the Rollmaster teaches the Taskmaster how to do his or her job and maintain the Master/Student Program, using prerequisite experience to ensure everyone is doing their job.

Altogether, the structure of the entire Summit is built to keep going if a position is lost and to instruct new members for the future - both key components of a successful Brotherhood House.

==Trivia==
* Article created by Kal Vorrac.
* PLA's Summit has often been faced with a tenuous sense of unity and a shaky list of duties; this article was created to rectify that problem.

== Mystery of the Wise ==

=== Preface ===
There is a sacred tradition proscribed by the oldest Jedi, whether Dark or Light, that states that each student of the ways of the Force, no matter the path they choose, must always earn their place on it. The Light is as unforgiving as the Dark, and the Dark as fulfilling as the Light, but always one must be prepared to learn, and therefore to teach, or lose the path which is trod. Three great Trials are proscribed from time immemorial; three tests of worthiness and skill to keep the path, learn the path, and choose the path, or fall from it by the wayside in order to earn the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]].

Yet other tests exist in the Darkness, from the first tentative steps a seeker makes on the Path, to the laudable Trials of Knighthood themselves, and in this document they are explored. The first section of this document presents a thesis on the nature of learning in the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Its subject matter is entirely based on real-life, hands on training experience and theory recognized as best-practice to an industry standard. The second section, through a redirect, contains actual information on what must be done to gain rank: The Master At Arm's [[Promotion Requirements]].

=== Introduction ===
Though the Dark Brotherhood is fiction, it is also a rich, meaningful one, built over many years by many talented and creative individuals, and from this rich background comes the fun of the Brotherhood; feeling as if you are part of something great and historical and powerful, and by this same tradition, the path to earning the sacred Lightsaber should be as rich and meaningful if not to you personally, but the to the character whose life you lead within the Dark Brotherhood.

To this purpose, the Master-[[Apprentice]] program was instituted. From the rank of Apprentice all the way through to Dark Jedi Knight, a Master will provide guidance and training in the ways of the Brotherhood and the Orders. Here-in you shall find the requirements, advice and experience of the leaders of [[Clan]] Plagueis in reaching each rank.

Be advised that these are by no means rock solid demands – they provide a mere curriculum of possibilities for Masters. The Master may change them as they see fit, adding or subtracting from them as best suits the Apprentice, and in by same token, deciding how much time each Apprentice may need at each rank or with given tasks.

As a Master, '''from a [[Krath]] perspective''', it is your job in some cases is to teach more practical things; spelling, grammar, syntax, construction, creativity, flow, style, description, planning – all the tools of writing. Primarily, however, your job is to help your Apprentice tread the path to Knighthood in a meaningful and fun way, to enable your Apprentice to truly feel as if they are part of the rich diversity of the Dark Brotherhood. This in turn lends itself to more esoteric teachings; the format and history of the Brotherhood, its lore, the lore of the Star Wars universe and the way and style our fictional world operates.

As a Master, '''from an [[Obelisk]] perspective''', you have the task of teaching the ways of combat, defense, stealth, assassinations and the inimitable art and style of the legendary lightsaber. You must pass on your knowledge and skills with this through the mediums, intricacies and strategies that can be employed within Jedi Knight, Jedi Knight Outcast and Jedi Academy, at the same time educating your Apprentice in the operation and workings of the Brotherhood and Order on a fictional and practical basis so they may achieve their own glory for the betterment of the Obelisk Order.

As a Master, '''from a [[Sith]] perspective''', you must convey the ways of power; strategy, mass warfare, space combat, tactics, weapon payloads and effectiveness, fortifications and flight skills. Through the multitudinous systems of X-Wing Alliance, TIE versus X-Wing, TIE Fighter, Stars Wars Battlefront, and Star Wars Empire At War you are to tutor and educate your charge in all their details and nuances while showing them the inner workings of the Sith and the Brotherhood, so that the Crowns do not tear it asunder in their bids for personal power.

To be a Master, you must have a good grasp on all these concepts and points of knowledge, and be ready and willing to share them with your Apprentice, to help them grow and develop their character, and chart their journey on the Dark Path until they are ready to wear the mantle of Knighthood. If you feel you are not ready for such, then I recommend learning to be so, as your Apprentice will look to you as the ultimate source of their guidance.

=== The Path and Trials ===
{{Quote|It is only the ignorant who despise education|Publilius Syrus}}

To give Apprentices a structure without confining them, and give them ‘hurdles’ to cross so they feel and see their accomplishments, we enhance the growth of their characters while also providing a sense of satisfaction and interest to the person behind the character, and by this methodology, the Trials of Knighthood and the Path of Kun came into being.

The '''Path of Kun''' charts their advancement through the ranks of [[Novice]], [[Acolyte]] and [[Protector]], having already attained the rank of Apprentice in the [[Shadow Academy]] and thusly joined [[Clan Plagueis]].

After this point, and having reached this rank, the Apprentice has made it clear they wish to truly be part of the Brotherhood, and have shown the skill necessary to obtain their rank. However, it is also in many cases that they are not truly sure what they are doing or where they fit in, and the Trials of Knighthood help give direction and form to these goals, so that by the end of them, the Apprentice knows their place in the Star Wars universe, understands how it works, and has developed a character that further enriches that which has been laid down before.

There are always three Trials, to represent the three hurdles of rank that lead to Dark Jedi Knight. The first confers the rank of [[Guardian]], the second, [[Jedi Hunter]], and the final leads to being a Dark Jedi Knight, so that when the final is passed, the Apprentice has earned their [[Lightsaber]] in truth. Each of the three Trials will teach an Apprentice some new part of their character, the Star Wars universe or perhaps themselves or their fellow Dark Jedi. They should always be enriching in some fashion, and useful and interesting.

Likewise, both Path and Trials are meant to be fun and stimulating, as well as a learning experience, and as such there should never be any haste or speed un-necessarily involved within them. Prodding and pushing will sap the fun from everything; allow reasonable time to be given to work on them, but by the same token, it is expected that an Apprentice will not rush Trials to completion to gain rank faster, and will find them useful and have a sense of pride when done. The Trials are meant for learning and growth and fun, not as a fast track to higher power. Such morality often shows that the Apprentice is not enjoying the Dark Brotherhood, but instead seeks to gain rank to have power and dominance over others in this fictional setting, and this can only lead to problems. Neither is it wrong though for an Apprentice to complete a task quickly, provided the Master feels it has been done completely.

=== Giving Feedback ===
{{Quote|If you would thoroughly know anything, teach it to others|Tryon Edwards}}

One of the most difficult parts of a being a Master is giving feedback on Trials. Very few Apprentices will submit a Trial first time that meets the criteria of what the Master believes to be suitable entry, and for this reason, a Master must be able to get a clear mind as to what they are looking for, and be able to give constructive feedback without sounding arrogant, condescending or facetious.

To tackle the first point, we must consider again that every Apprentice is different, and that while you are judging the content, form and construction of a Trial, you are not to take into account your own personal bias’ and preference in that judgment. For example, if a character happens to choose their race as being Twi’lek, the Master must not judge the Apprentices Trial more harshly because it does not fit with that the Master thinks a Twi’lek must be like. The work must be taken on its merits, insight and form without bias, unless what is written is totally opposed to established, ‘official’ canon or errata of the Dark Brotherhood or Star Wars in general. This can sometimes be a hard balance to maintain, given the fact that everyone has opinions and sometimes topics can touch very strong opinions, but it is a necessity so that the absolute fairness required of a Master can be maintained and so that an Apprentice always receives due credit for their work. Set aside your own images and opinions, and judge the work for what it is, not what you think it ''should'' be.

The second point is perhaps the hardest. In giving feedback and opinion, just as in point one, always maintain your sense of fairness, and ensure that when faults and mistakes are highlighted, they are done so in a constructive fashion that neither bruises the ego of the Apprentice nor fails to put the point across. Explain why what was said was not quite what was being looked for, and explain how it can be done better or differently with a rationalization. If spelling or grammar is poor, explain this and suggest methods of improvement, just as if flow is jumpy, explain why it seems so from a readers point of view, and how this can be remedied from a writers point of view.

When you are satisfied that a Trial has been passed and done as well as it could be, it is the Masters responsibility to promote the Apprentice, or, if the Master does not have authority to do so, to ensure that someone (such as the [[Quaestor]] or [[Aedile]]) does so. Write your recommendation stating what the Apprentice has done to deserve it, how well they have progressed and your belief in them, and pass this on to the other party if you cannot or would prefer not to do the recommendation yourself.

== The Master ==
{{Quote|The true teacher defends his pupils against his own personal influence|Amos Bronson Alcott}}

As a Master, you have been through this same thing, though perhaps in some cases without the guidance provided by Trials or a specific Master. I myself did not have Trials when I was at that rank, nor did I have a Master per-se, for me, I had one person to look up to and receive guidance from, but many contributed in a hap-hazard way to my education, in a sometimes confusing and halting jumble. As a Master, if will be your job to sort out the jumbled, confusing and wrong and clarify all things for your Apprentice so that they understand what is going on, where to get information, what to do and where they can learn more. You are their guide and mentor and tutor, if not in matters of writing, in matters of the Dark Brotherhood and Star Wars. It should be your aim to teach something, even if that something is simply the names of a few famous Sith Lords, the historical significance of Duxon, what the Chancellor does or simply just what in the galaxy that thing standing at the bar in Mos Eisley is.

Patience is a virtue, and you must have it in abundance to be a Master. Sometimes you will be asked questions that make you want to tear your hair out because of their simplicity, but always remember that to the one asking, they do not know, or they would not have asked. The familiar to you is alien to the Apprentice. Likewise, you will also be asked complex, far reaching questions that have no simple or single answer, or that you may not even know yourself. In these cases you must know where you could find the answer, who you could ask, or be prepared to explain in details why the answer is so sophisticated. In either case, you must always be prepared to answer patiently, fully and fairly.

In being a Master, you are putting yourself in the position to control the fate of a member of the Dark Brotherhood, if perhaps only for a short time. As a Master, you will say when you believe the Apprentice has truly passed a Trial, and they will gain rank at your say so. Always be fair, truthful and supportive. Comment constructively, direct in the correct ways of things and be prepared to spend a long time on subjects or topics that are not easily understood. You are in charge of their efforts and conduct, and should set an example for them by your own actions and behaviour. None should truly gain-say your opinions or override your judgment, you are their Master, and such a relationship is sacred. It cannot be stressed enough how important fairness is, as by your say so, an Apprentice will reach the coveted and significant rank of Dark Jedi Knight.

== The Apprentice ==
{{Quote|Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled|Wu Ting-Fang}}

It is hoped that an Apprentice wants to do their Trials, so that they can come to have a rich and full character and enjoy the Dark Brotherhood for all the rich writing, historical and roleplaying aspects it has. If the Apprentice is not willing to listen to and abide by the judgment of the Master, does not wish to be guided or is too arrogant to accept help or see that they may not know everything or see the time the Master is giving to them, they have no place in the Master – Apprentice program.

When speaking person to person, it is right and proper for a Master and Apprentice to be friends and get along well, and to enjoy each others company. It is also right though for an Apprentice to give a Master the respect they deserve. The Master is going out of their way to help an Apprentice with no gain for themselves, while the Apprentice is gaining the benefit of increased rank and the time, knowledge and tutelage of the Master. Because of this, it is expected that even when speaking person to person, the Apprentice should be respectful and thankful.

When writing in a character based context, it is vital that the Apprentice shows proper deference for their Master. In the canon of Star Wars, Masters were the wisest and most powerful, seniors already strong in what the Apprentice is still learning, and this is doubly true of the Dark Side. The Master is stronger, older and wiser, and should be treated as such in the cut throat world of the Dark Side, where fear keeps order and brings power.

The Battalion has no official name; it simply does not exist outside of its own actions and the appropriated funds used to keep it running. Special care has been taken to minimize knowledge of its existence, to the point where only a handful of people serving on the Dark Council know of it. It exists under the personal command of GM Muz Ashen.

== History ==

The Battalion has never served as a unit in a battle, more often dividing into small autonomous units when fighting properly. More often, members serve in more clandestine fashion, acting as assassins, saboteurs, and terrorists at the will of the Grand Master.

=== Formation ===

Formed in 33 ABY, with training schedules for first troops being designed by high ranking officers of the [[Armed Forces of the Iron Throne]] and later refined by Muz Ashen, The Battalion was designed as the ultimate in traditional troops; with a training schedule designed specifically to wash out ninety plus percent recruits, it was one of the most brutal regimens ever.

=== Development ===

Between formation and activation (a 17 month process), several important precedents were set. Primarily, the survival of the Cult of the Grand Master past its recruitment purpose. Others include the names of the companies and platoons, the division of Delta Company as the support section, and the development of the modern Church of the Grand Master.

==== Survival of the Cult ====

The Cult of the Grand Master was not going to leave easily; members of the Battalion had gotten used to seeing the Grand Master as a Messiah. Their 'rescue' only furthered their beliefs. Within three months, several cults were formed. The most significant were the Apotheosis cults, the Mortal God cults, the Avatar cults, and the Messiah cults.

The Apotheosis cults believed that the Grand Masters used to be human, but ascended to God Hood. The Mortal God cults held that the Grand Masters were all gods in mortal form, and when 'killed' simply ascended to a higher plane of existence. The Avatar Cults held that the Grand Masters were mortals that were chosen by the Force to act as its hand in the world. The Messiah cults believed the Grand Masters to be representatives of the Force, but not actively controlled by it.

==== Formation of the Church ====

When Muz Ashen heard of this division, he quickly took steps to keep the resources he had pushed into it from being wasted; for the first time, he appeared on Skarra Station, proclaiming a somewhat obscure Apotheosis cult led by 1st Lt. Sian as the foundation of the Church of the Grand Master. Muz quickly left, letting his highly fanatic troops sort them selves out. This quick intervention caused a heavy feeling of unity as everyone within The Battalion fell under a single ideology, delighted that their God had appeared before them to guide their actions.

=== Naming of the Companies ===

The names of the companies were selected for simplicities purpose; they would not be easily confused, and their nature would keep new companies from disrupting the naming scheme. The platoons were chosen for similar reasons.

== Training/Recruitment ==

=== Recruitment ===

There are only three requirements to enlist The Battalion; to be healthy, to have already demonstrated extreme loyalty to the reigning Grand Master, and to have had no Force training. In practice, only those who have demonstrated exceptional skill are entered into training, as anyone else is guaranteed death. When someone is selected for potential addition to The Battalion, recruiters sneak into their home, drug them, kidnap them, and take them to a specially designed prison.

=== Training ===

The initial stage of training gets potential members into a very hostile prison environment, designed specifically to force inmates to become stronger or die. A Sith cult, venerating the Grand Master, approaches those who show capability and dedication and tells the recruit that, once in a while, the Grand Master comes and frees a small group, all of which are a member of the Cult; that several members disappear regularly is often offered as proof. Most quickly accept, having already been somewhat conditioned towards following the Grand Master. Those who do not are quickly targeted, with guards paying the other (legitimate) inmates to attack them. As the attacks increase in severity, they either convert or die.

After they become fanatics, as events are carefully orchestrated to give them the idea that the Grand Master is a god, they and several other recruits are carefully spirited away, with the first image they see being other members who were similarly taken away, who quickly fill the new members heads with rather grand images of the Grand Master, their own fanaticism showing through.

They are directed around the Skarra Station, showing them what could be theirs if they join with The Battalion. Those who say no but are members of the Armed Forces of the Iron Throne are replaced, and begin to spread word of the Cult of the Grand Master, in an attempt to assist the regular military in their devotion. Those who say no and are not members of the Armed Forces of the Iron Throne are quietly and cleanly killed.

==== Officer Training ====

Everyone goes in enlisted, the only exception being those officers who were borrowed to start it up (and they were quietly returned, having been already assured of loyalty). A special school for officers exists for those that wish to enter into the officer class.

Consisting of four months of tactical training and practice, anyone who does not wash out is given the temporary rank of O-0, or Third Lieutenant. They are then given standard Second Lieutenant duties; if they do well, they are made official officers. If not, they are dropped back to enlisted ranks and kept far away from leadership.

== Organization ==

While the Reigning Grand Master is the De Jure commander, an appointed representative is largely responsible for directing their actions, except when the Reigning GM needs them for special duties.

Currently, the commander is Colonel Sian, the first commander who was not re-routed from the Armed Forces of the Iron Throne. Her quick rise in rank is due to exceptional capabilities, several proposed and enacted reforms to the recruitment methods (which helped seperate those who would pass and those that would not much more quickly), and her position as Grand Priest in the Cult of the GM (a position which was largely created to prevent different sects from cropping up).

Divided into three companies of three hundred and one company of one hundred (further divided into 25 man platoons), the Battalion is often able to divide itself and recombine as necessary, and rather seamlessly.

The Platoons are named by their company followed by a number. Thus, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma Companies have Platoons Alpha/Beta/Gamma 1 through Alpha/Beta/Gamma 12, and Delta Company has Platoons Delta 1 through Delta 4. They are not divided by duties, but rather to allow quick divisions in battlefield while retaining the Chain of Command. Delta Company is an exception, being responsible for keeping everything running.

Still, the various companies have developed certain preferences when it comes to recruits.

=== Alpha Company ===

Alpha Company is led by Captain Ta'Til, deputied by 1st Lt. Wes, with the sergeant position held by Sgt. Warick. Has the highest concentration of snipers in The Battalion. Holds 9 out of 10 of the furthest kill shot records in The Battalion.

=== Beta Company ===

Beta Company is led by Major Kein, deputied by 2nd Lt. Terrek, with the sergeant position held by Sgt. Kyral. Has the highest concentration of infiltrators in The Battalion. Their cook makes a really great stew.

=== Gamma Company ===

Gamma Company is led by 1st Lt. Marshal, deputed by 2nd Lt. Vaal, with the sergeant position held by Sgt. Maugvi. The closest to an evenly distributed company, but recent trends indicate that it may develop out as a home for the saboteurs of The Battalion. Also holds the record for most hours clocked in total at the Grand Masters Chapel.

=== Delta Company ===

Delta is led by Colonel Sain, and is the only company with a specific duty. They are charged with maintaining Skarra Station, helping new members, guarding the Grand Master on all his visits, and maintaining the Officer School. Most members are Officers or experienced non-coms, with only the most talented and fanatical Junior Enlisted being accepted. Deputied by Lt. Colonel Jyvun, with the sergeant position held by Sgt. Kurn. Holds the record for most hours clocked per person at the Grand Masters Chapel.

== Funding ==

Funding for The Battalion varies; a large portion is taken from the Brotherhoods funds, but Muz Ashen has been constantly making his own contributions to The Battalion, in an attempt to make it capable to run even if Brotherhood politics forces Muz to cut off Brotherhood funds to The Battalion. The exact number of each is never the same, and The Battalion also attempts to draw what it can from targets to keep its actual funding a mystery to those aware of its existence, something which it has done rather well.

== Duties ==

Serving as what amounts to a Force Blind hand to the Grand Master, The Battalion rarely has work one would consider dull. They sometimes act as auxiliary guards to the Grand Master (almost never to other members of the Dark Council, only when in a location where regular troops surround them), or guards for when the Royal Guard cannot be risked (when the Grand Master is retrieving something he does not wish for other Force Users to see). Their primary duty, however, is to do the dirty work of the Grand Master, having no house or clan loyalties (unlike members of the Royal Guard) to get in their way, thus making them less powerful yet more reliable versions of the Royal Guard. Of course, the very fact that they are Force Blind, and believe they have divine protection and guidance from the Grand Master, makes the vast majority of targets underestimate them. Their training and equipment provide them with a surprising bag of tricks, allowing them to be a notable threat, even one on one, to Jedi Hunters, and even Knights that were caught off guard (though they don't usually come out of those alive, they do some significant damage and can even inflict mortal wounds), making them a powerful weapon.

== Equipment ==

Usually a case of 'fit to the job', the variety of equipment they have is, frankly, astounding. Blaster rifles, Long Rifles, slugthrower pistols, slug thrower machine guns, sniper rifles, a wide variety of armor, grenades, thermal detonators, chemical weapons, and even suicide bombs (sometimes implanted ones, especially for those with important information) form a small amount of their potential usage. Their numbers are the primary reason they have most of this; with a decent base from which to draw, they could field a wide variety of specialist teams, while at the same time keeping them organized.

== Church of the Grand Master ==

While the Cult of the Grand Master was constructed specifically for the purpose of turning recruits into fanatics, the Church of the Grand Master was constructed entirely out of those who had already been admitted into The Battalion, built so they could continue their worship. With a few months, there were several sects. Weary of a civil war, Muz Ashen stepped in, named one cult the true church, and quietly stepped out while they all merged, then 1st Lt. Sian having been selected as de facto leader, her own cult being the one chosen by the Grand Master.

=== Organization ===

Largely informally organized, the Grand Priest simply names new priests whenever the occasion seems to warrant it. Rarely, titles within the church are offered. These are the closest things to medals anyone in The Battalion receives.

=== Titles Granted ===

== Mystery of the Wise ==

=== Preface ===
There is a sacred tradition proscribed by the oldest Jedi, whether Dark or Light, that states that each student of the ways of the Force, no matter the path they choose, must always earn their place on it. The Light is as unforgiving as the Dark, and the Dark as fulfilling as the Light, but always one must be prepared to learn, and therefore to teach, or lose the path which is trod. Three great Trials are proscribed from time immemorial; three tests of worthiness and skill to keep the path, learn the path, and choose the path, or fall from it by the wayside in order to earn the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]].

Yet other tests exist in the Darkness, from the first tentative steps a seeker makes on the Path, to the laudable Trials of Knighthood themselves, and in this document they are explored. The first section of this document presents a thesis on the nature of learning in the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. Its subject matter is entirely based on real-life, hands on training experience and theory recognized as best-practice to an industry standard. The second section, through a redirect, contains actual information on what must be done to gain rank: The Master At Arm's [[Promotion Requirements]].

=== Introduction ===
Though the Dark Brotherhood is fiction, it is also a rich, meaningful one, built over many years by many talented and creative individuals, and from this rich background comes the fun of the Brotherhood; feeling as if you are part of something great and historical and powerful, and by this same tradition, the path to earning the sacred Lightsaber should be as rich and meaningful if not to you personally, but the to the character whose life you lead within the Dark Brotherhood.

To this purpose, the Master-[[Apprentice]] program was instituted. From the rank of Apprentice all the way through to Dark Jedi Knight, a Master will provide guidance and training in the ways of the Brotherhood and the Orders. Here-in you shall find the requirements, advice and experience of the leaders of [[Clan]] Plagueis in reaching each rank.

Be advised that these are by no means rock solid demands – they provide a mere curriculum of possibilities for Masters. The Master may change them as they see fit, adding or subtracting from them as best suits the Apprentice, and in by same token, deciding how much time each Apprentice may need at each rank or with given tasks.

As a Master, '''from a [[Krath]] perspective''', it is your job in some cases is to teach more practical things; spelling, grammar, syntax, construction, creativity, flow, style, description, planning – all the tools of writing. Primarily, however, your job is to help your Apprentice tread the path to Knighthood in a meaningful and fun way, to enable your Apprentice to truly feel as if they are part of the rich diversity of the Dark Brotherhood. This in turn lends itself to more esoteric teachings; the format and history of the Brotherhood, its lore, the lore of the Star Wars universe and the way and style our fictional world operates.

As a Master, '''from an [[Obelisk]] perspective''', you have the task of teaching the ways of combat, defense, stealth, assassinations and the inimitable art and style of the legendary lightsaber. You must pass on your knowledge and skills with this through the mediums, intricacies and strategies that can be employed within Jedi Knight, Jedi Knight Outcast and Jedi Academy, at the same time educating your Apprentice in the operation and workings of the Brotherhood and Order on a fictional and practical basis so they may achieve their own glory for the betterment of the Obelisk Order.

As a Master, '''from a [[Sith]] perspective''', you must convey the ways of power; strategy, mass warfare, space combat, tactics, weapon payloads and effectiveness, fortifications and flight skills. Through the multitudinous systems of X-Wing Alliance, TIE versus X-Wing, TIE Fighter, Stars Wars Battlefront, and Star Wars Empire At War you are to tutor and educate your charge in all their details and nuances while showing them the inner workings of the Sith and the Brotherhood, so that the Crowns do not tear it asunder in their bids for personal power.

To be a Master, you must have a good grasp on all these concepts and points of knowledge, and be ready and willing to share them with your Apprentice, to help them grow and develop their character, and chart their journey on the Dark Path until they are ready to wear the mantle of Knighthood. If you feel you are not ready for such, then I recommend learning to be so, as your Apprentice will look to you as the ultimate source of their guidance.

=== The Path and Trials ===
{{Quote|It is only the ignorant who despise education|Publilius Syrus}}

To give Apprentices a structure without confining them, and give them ‘hurdles’ to cross so they feel and see their accomplishments, we enhance the growth of their characters while also providing a sense of satisfaction and interest to the person behind the character, and by this methodology, the Trials of Knighthood and the Path of Kun came into being.

The '''Path of Kun''' charts their advancement through the ranks of [[Novice]], [[Acolyte]] and [[Protector]], having already attained the rank of Apprentice in the [[Shadow Academy]] and thusly joined [[Clan Plagueis]].

After this point, and having reached this rank, the Apprentice has made it clear they wish to truly be part of the Brotherhood, and have shown the skill necessary to obtain their rank. However, it is also in many cases that they are not truly sure what they are doing or where they fit in, and the Trials of Knighthood help give direction and form to these goals, so that by the end of them, the Apprentice knows their place in the Star Wars universe, understands how it works, and has developed a character that further enriches that which has been laid down before.

There are always three Trials, to represent the three hurdles of rank that lead to Dark Jedi Knight. The first confers the rank of [[Guardian]], the second, [[Jedi Hunter]], and the final leads to being a Dark Jedi Knight, so that when the final is passed, the Apprentice has earned their [[Lightsaber]] in truth. Each of the three Trials will teach an Apprentice some new part of their character, the Star Wars universe or perhaps themselves or their fellow Dark Jedi. They should always be enriching in some fashion, and useful and interesting.

Likewise, both Path and Trials are meant to be fun and stimulating, as well as a learning experience, and as such there should never be any haste or speed un-necessarily involved within them. Prodding and pushing will sap the fun from everything; allow reasonable time to be given to work on them, but by the same token, it is expected that an Apprentice will not rush Trials to completion to gain rank faster, and will find them useful and have a sense of pride when done. The Trials are meant for learning and growth and fun, not as a fast track to higher power. Such morality often shows that the Apprentice is not enjoying the Dark Brotherhood, but instead seeks to gain rank to have power and dominance over others in this fictional setting, and this can only lead to problems. Neither is it wrong though for an Apprentice to complete a task quickly, provided the Master feels it has been done completely.

=== Giving Feedback ===
{{Quote|If you would thoroughly know anything, teach it to others|Tryon Edwards}}

One of the most difficult parts of a being a Master is giving feedback on Trials. Very few Apprentices will submit a Trial first time that meets the criteria of what the Master believes to be suitable entry, and for this reason, a Master must be able to get a clear mind as to what they are looking for, and be able to give constructive feedback without sounding arrogant, condescending or facetious.

To tackle the first point, we must consider again that every Apprentice is different, and that while you are judging the content, form and construction of a Trial, you are not to take into account your own personal bias’ and preference in that judgment. For example, if a character happens to choose their race as being Twi’lek, the Master must not judge the Apprentices Trial more harshly because it does not fit with that the Master thinks a Twi’lek must be like. The work must be taken on its merits, insight and form without bias, unless what is written is totally opposed to established, ‘official’ canon or errata of the Dark Brotherhood or Star Wars in general. This can sometimes be a hard balance to maintain, given the fact that everyone has opinions and sometimes topics can touch very strong opinions, but it is a necessity so that the absolute fairness required of a Master can be maintained and so that an Apprentice always receives due credit for their work. Set aside your own images and opinions, and judge the work for what it is, not what you think it ''should'' be.

The second point is perhaps the hardest. In giving feedback and opinion, just as in point one, always maintain your sense of fairness, and ensure that when faults and mistakes are highlighted, they are done so in a constructive fashion that neither bruises the ego of the Apprentice nor fails to put the point across. Explain why what was said was not quite what was being looked for, and explain how it can be done better or differently with a rationalization. If spelling or grammar is poor, explain this and suggest methods of improvement, just as if flow is jumpy, explain why it seems so from a readers point of view, and how this can be remedied from a writers point of view.

When you are satisfied that a Trial has been passed and done as well as it could be, it is the Masters responsibility to promote the Apprentice, or, if the Master does not have authority to do so, to ensure that someone (such as the [[Quaestor]] or [[Aedile]]) does so. Write your recommendation stating what the Apprentice has done to deserve it, how well they have progressed and your belief in them, and pass this on to the other party if you cannot or would prefer not to do the recommendation yourself.

== The Master ==
{{Quote|The true teacher defends his pupils against his own personal influence|Amos Bronson Alcott}}

As a Master, you have been through this same thing, though perhaps in some cases without the guidance provided by Trials or a specific Master. I myself did not have Trials when I was at that rank, nor did I have a Master per-se, for me, I had one person to look up to and receive guidance from, but many contributed in a hap-hazard way to my education, in a sometimes confusing and halting jumble. As a Master, if will be your job to sort out the jumbled, confusing and wrong and clarify all things for your Apprentice so that they understand what is going on, where to get information, what to do and where they can learn more. You are their guide and mentor and tutor, if not in matters of writing, in matters of the Dark Brotherhood and Star Wars. It should be your aim to teach something, even if that something is simply the names of a few famous Sith Lords, the historical significance of Duxon, what the Chancellor does or simply just what in the galaxy that thing standing at the bar in Mos Eisley is.

Patience is a virtue, and you must have it in abundance to be a Master. Sometimes you will be asked questions that make you want to tear your hair out because of their simplicity, but always remember that to the one asking, they do not know, or they would not have asked. The familiar to you is alien to the Apprentice. Likewise, you will also be asked complex, far reaching questions that have no simple or single answer, or that you may not even know yourself. In these cases you must know where you could find the answer, who you could ask, or be prepared to explain in details why the answer is so sophisticated. In either case, you must always be prepared to answer patiently, fully and fairly.

In being a Master, you are putting yourself in the position to control the fate of a member of the Dark Brotherhood, if perhaps only for a short time. As a Master, you will say when you believe the Apprentice has truly passed a Trial, and they will gain rank at your say so. Always be fair, truthful and supportive. Comment constructively, direct in the correct ways of things and be prepared to spend a long time on subjects or topics that are not easily understood. You are in charge of their efforts and conduct, and should set an example for them by your own actions and behaviour. None should truly gain-say your opinions or override your judgment, you are their Master, and such a relationship is sacred. It cannot be stressed enough how important fairness is, as by your say so, an Apprentice will reach the coveted and significant rank of Dark Jedi Knight.

== The Apprentice ==
{{Quote|Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled|Wu Ting-Fang}}

It is hoped that an Apprentice wants to do their Trials, so that they can come to have a rich and full character and enjoy the Dark Brotherhood for all the rich writing, historical and roleplaying aspects it has. If the Apprentice is not willing to listen to and abide by the judgment of the Master, does not wish to be guided or is too arrogant to accept help or see that they may not know everything or see the time the Master is giving to them, they have no place in the Master – Apprentice program.

When speaking person to person, it is right and proper for a Master and Apprentice to be friends and get along well, and to enjoy each others company. It is also right though for an Apprentice to give a Master the respect they deserve. The Master is going out of their way to help an Apprentice with no gain for themselves, while the Apprentice is gaining the benefit of increased rank and the time, knowledge and tutelage of the Master. Because of this, it is expected that even when speaking person to person, the Apprentice should be respectful and thankful.

When writing in a character based context, it is vital that the Apprentice shows proper deference for their Master. In the canon of Star Wars, Masters were the wisest and most powerful, seniors already strong in what the Apprentice is still learning, and this is doubly true of the Dark Side. The Master is stronger, older and wiser, and should be treated as such in the cut throat world of the Dark Side, where fear keeps order and brings power.

Capital of the Jusadih System and headquarters of [[Clan Plagueis]], Kapsina, once a planet of massive oceans, underwent the devastation of Jusadih’s sun, Sigil, turning the once luscious planet into a dry, desolate landscape. Kapsina is composed of five continents: Kurast, Calimcha, Asinai, Schall, Khanduras. Kapsina possesses two Adegan crystal veins, giving the planet great importance to the Dark Jedi. It was spared the devastation of the Yuuzhan Vong War.

== History ==
Once the star Sigil came into existence, the debris slowly began to cluster, grouping into a form. The first such mass became designated as Sigil 1 and was later named after the scientist that discovered the planet, Dr. Kapsina. The report was lost however in the antiquated Old Republic's database, to go undiscovered and largely unpopulated until the Yuzhan Vong pressed people from the Core worlds towards the salvation and tranquility of the Outer Rim, which had become docile in comparison to the losing war the New Republic had been waging.

But Kapsina had changed since her initial discovery, the voluminous water planet had been subject to Sigil's heat. The water had first begun to boil, moving into massive cloud cover and strangling all but the most resilient forms of life. The result was vast amounts of arid land, compacted by a slightly heavier gravity compared to Sigil 2, Aerun. Yet riches were found by those whom searched, the first such culture was the Myrsei - a self sustaining culture that lives in harmony with the ground, working each day to perfect themselves and their art. And soon the planet began to draw others, each interested in the planet's geology. Thus the population grew rapidly as new fortunes were mined from the planet's depths.

Mining corporations soon became vast expansive centers of population and civilization, the wives and children of miners filling the newly constructed homes and schools, while the men risked the perils of the mines. And when the children grew up, they would bolster the miner's numbers - filling the voids of those lost previously.

Soon the [[Dark Brotherhood]] took interest in the planet, realizing the benefits of having a direct interest invested into a source for necessary materials for their force: Starfighters and Capitol Ships. The [[Dark Council]] sent an [[Envoy]], whom not only scouted the planet, but purchased an upstart mining corporation that would later provide a considerable amount of materials needed to construct the Antei Defense Groups. And so it remained until twenty two years after the Battle of Yavin. When the emergence of a new clan, [[Clan Plagueis|Plagueis]], drew designs upon the riches hidden in the Jusadih System. From the depths of the [[Acarr System]] they fled, leaving behind a faltering economy to the trade strong Jusadih. There a monumental base of operations was constructed within the grounds of their company, Ellesmeria. And thus the home of Clan Plagueis and the meddling of Dark Jedi fell upon the planet like a black curtain.

When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the system in 27 ABY, Kapsina was fourth in line of their route, right after [[Shintera]]. Luckily, however, the Vong fleet was pulled back, and Kapsina was spared. Repercussions were still felt, however, as both [[Sistros Acquisitions and Holdings]] and [[House Exar Kun]] were forced to set up HQs on the planet due to the damage done to their own planets, Shintera and [[Aerun]], respectively. This initial influx of refugees caused a definite strain upon the static population. Many such refugee camps needed immediate resources in order to function. However, after these circumstances became the status quo, the refugees were able to begin contributing to the planet's economy in such a way that more than replaced the original loss of resources.

All things considered, Kapsina is currently enjoying a time of relative peace and stability.

== Satellite Description ==

=== Nasva ===
[[File:Nasva.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Nasva, Moon of Sigil 1: Kapsina]]A single moon orbits Kapsina, half the size of Aerun's moons, an uneven chunk of what could have once been a part of the planet. It is a score of jagged peaks and treacherous valleys -- and with no atmosphere it will not naturally support indigenous life or evolution. The ground is an unfathomable black, as if ash litters the entire surface. However, surprisingly, it is incredibly rich in minerals. The satellite is 'off-limits' per request of the Ruling Council. Some believe it has been abandoned because it is home to a resistance group, the Disciples of the Black Hand. It is possible they are using abandoned research outposts on the surface as headquarters.

== Planet Geography (by continent) ==

=== Kurast ===
In the northeast, from the shores of Khanduras, rests a land composed of sand and clay. The land is pocketed with natural caves, that are prone to complete collapses at the slightest tremor. Which have a tendency to rack the land almost weekly and in the most unpredictable manner - the only constant is that it will happen. Yet, the miners still venture out into the flat land, daring the holes, to harvest the small mountains and strip mines. The sand and clay do not hold temperature well, the average temperature runs 45 degrees F to 65 degrees F.

=== Calimcha ===
The large continent that rests in the north western corner, it is dominated by rugged mountains and large dunes, all of which is second to the perilous lava flows that span the land. Yet the ground yields the necessary ingredient/compound for Duracrete. Many will venture into the deadly ravines, daring the rivers of lava to harvest resources. Only one expanse of safe land exists, there a corporation and city have arisen. Due to the molten activity spanning the land the continent runs from 75 degrees F to over 100 degrees F, depending on the location.

=== Asinai ===
[[File:Kapsina_Barrens.jpg|thumb|250px|right|The Barrens of Kapsina]]
The southeast is dominated by the presence of a tiered continent, for it's vast differences in topography. Upon the far east coast runs a mountain range where large deposits of alloy are mined and refined in the headquarters of a nearby corporation/city. From there to the far west, runs the expanse known as the 'barrens', a vast stretch of nothingness. It has become a wasteland, a deposit for outdated machinery from all of the planet's miners. The winds constantly blow from the west, causing the temperatures to be relatively cold, 35 degrees F to 75 degrees F. Depending on how far one is across the barrens.

=== Schall ===
Southwest from the shores of Khanduras, Schall was once a profitable source of exotic metals. But the land was soon depleted and sold to the earliest inhabitants of Kapsina, an ancient culture known as the Myrsei. It is home of the last Adegan vein, which infuriates the local Dark Jedi populace. At it's center is a lone mountain, an active volcano - its outline dominates the skyline and causes a great deal of interference to advanced technology. A single coast has been cleared and leveled by the Myrsei, it is there they live and work. Though what they do is largely left to speculation and bits of truth. The land is greatly unknown due to the interference.

=== Khanduras ===
The central continent and center of trade, other continents will ship their finished products here awaiting shipments to be sent off-world to Shintura or other buyers. The landscape is a dusty, arid and reaches oppressively into the distance, only to be broken by the timid seas surrounding it or the massive 'spine' that runs through the middle of the continent. The temperatures are consistent and range from 60 degrees F to 80 degrees F. It is also home to one of the two Adegan veins; this one is controlled by agents of Clan Plagueis.

== Cities ==

=== Sapientia ===
[[File:Kapsina-Sapientia.jpg|thumb|200px|right|The Museum of Sapientia]]
The city of Wisdom, is designed to be efficient and effective. The Master Architects have pre-determined the exact layout, causing no room for error. But the result is a maze of buildings and streets that are identical in everything except name and hue. At the center of Sapientia is the processing plant, there they manufacture the mined materials into refined goods for export. The colony is rich in life, expanding its culture instead of its pocket book. Thus, the Ruling Council has little to criticize, though they keep a militia nearby.

Several notable structures are the museum, which explains a great deal of planet history. The Auditorium, a massive chamber designed for speakers, conventions and provides the necessary space for entertainment. And lastly, on the perimeter rest the garages, which house all of Sapientia's portable mining equipment. As they spend top dollar on their city, they also have purchased some of the finest equipment on the planet -- it even exceeds the technology used in Ellesmeria, albeit, slightly.

=== Dicio ===
The sovereign city is the oldest, possibly most outdated corporation in the galaxy's existence. Which means it is the oldest city, most of its structures dating back to the time period of the Old Republic, which was a time of elegant stone work and masonry, though the tranquil, bright stones have now been washed dark by the arid ecosystem. The technology is grossly outdated as well, not having been updated since the Emperor perished above the skies of Endor. Yet what they lack in ability the have made up with experience. The buildings are sturdy and regularly repaired, providing necessary shelter for the inhabitants. And the miners are well trained, using time-tested processes that yield excellent results, giving boons to the civilization when they ship their goods off-world.

This has allowed for the purchase of a massive construct plant, where parts for star fighters are being created. The parts are later shipped off-world for assembly. And recently the corporation has invested large amounts of money into producing Capitol ship parts which are exclusively sold to the Ellesmeria Corporation.

=== Polleo ===
[[File:Kapsina-Polleo.jpg|thumb|200px|right|The City of Polleo]]
The city of Power, the corporation was named by it's opponents in the early days because they held so much power by their immense work force, a slave population. Originally a slave drive company and city, the old remnants of town can be seen on the Eastern horizon. Then it was populated with massive jailhouses where several people were forced into tight confines, given extremely poor rations and paid miserly wages. Yet new laws from the Ruling Council forced the corporation to swell from slavery to citizenship, as they were released from their bondage. The result was a haphazard arrangement of homes, stores and mining complexes. Lacking the aesthetic beauty of Sapientia, much of the city appears as a dark, extended, slum. This city is spread over a great expanse, the resources are also spread across the distance, ultimately proving highly indefensible if an outside force were to attack.

The large central population gives Polleo a strong work force that is mobile and desperate for money, thus driving them to work in the dangerous environment - as they strive to earn their wages.

Topographical scans have given the Brotherhood a map of the twisting, sprawling city - yet it would still be considerably hard to navigate without prior experience.

=== Quies ===
The home city of the Myrsei, it is largely unknown as the borders are forcefully and dutifully guarded by the citizens.

=== Ellesmeria ===
Once known as Caldus, the City of Passion, it was renamed immediately after a dark clad envoy from Antei purchased the corporation. And though the Brotherhood has always owned the city, it has never been run by a Dark Jedi; left to the capable minds and hands of miners. Even after the city was 'given' by the Dark Council to the Clan, it is yet to be seen if they shall allow them to retain it. For the Brotherhood left the men and women to their own devices, and a experienced leader arose with ceaseless funds from the Dark Jedi - a wondrous city arose.

It is the equivalent to Byss, where the buildings are uniformly smooth, and the beauty flowing across the expanse of the town. Each building melds into the overall image, the colors gently shifting from brilliant to dull with each connected walkway and passage. The largest difference from Byss is the fact that most of the buildings do not reach higher than two stories in the air, allowing the skyline to be dominated by several prominent locations: The factories, spaceport and an outlying structure, the Dark Tower.

Wealth and considerable luck have given the corporation the ability to export materials and purchase a space platform, which is recently in construction - orbiting Kapsina - and will have the ability to build Capitol Ships, as well as repair vessels. It should not go without mention Ellesmeria also has direct access to the Adegan vein of Khanduras - strangely all mined material is transported to the Dark Tower.

Ellesmeria is also well known as the home of Kapsina's main Army. Accordingly, several sections of the city are zoned off for military detail only. In the aftermath of the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]], many of [[House Exar Kun]]'s Obelisks have taken up shelter with their non-Jedi peers. While this relationship was rather imposed at first, the main Army soon found they could learn much from the Jedi refugees. For the time being, the relationship is bearing much fruit.

== Landmarks ==
'''Land's End'''

At the end of the barrens, an expansive cliff that drops into the sea. The face of the drop is pocketed with caves that are inhabited by an odd winged creature that till this day has not been identified, but is potentially dangerous to any living thing.

'''Dragon Forge'''

The legendary forge of the Myrsei, it is said that weapons, armor, even ships of great power are crafted and made under the divine eye of the smiths. Though none of the ancient smiths have been seen since the beginning, it is said that their spirit roams the Forge.

'''Phoenix Falls'''

A meeting place of several rivers of lava, they slowly fall over the lip of a mountain creating an effect that appears like a waterfall. May have unknown uses, geothermically stays at 500 degrees F. Though a site that is exquisite it is hardly worth the risk to see in person, because it might be your life.

'''Gates of Vlagrand'''

A critical pass that has been sculpted in an ornate, forgotten fashion from days long past. It is a defensive 'choke point' for people to pass through, the Ruling Council has decided to place a militia here.

'''Dragon's Graveyard'''

Once a piece has achieved the rank of 'legendary' amongst the Myrsei culture it is worn by the creator until the end of days. When the maker perishes, their pieces of legendary quality are retired to the graveyard - a small shrine is built in honor of both crafter and equipment.

'''Fallen Moon'''

The Adegan vein upon Khanduras. It is rumored that when one walks into the main chamber, where the purest Adegan is growing, a slight light will refract off the crystals, causing a brilliant visual effect. The location of the vein is known only to the Dark Jedi and some council members.

'''Howling Mine'''

A collapsed mine, was later cleared by the Clan Elder, Sarin. There he performed alchemy and brought a tremendous beast and guardian to life - it continually howls, warding off strangers. It is a defensive beast alone, only prone to attack those whom are not inducted into the Clan. A great mystery resides here that has yet to be discovered...

== Political Outlook ==
The planet is run by a representative from each of the five cities, though the representative for the Myrsei never attends any meetings - sending in their votes on matters. No other contact is received or expected. An additional seat has recently been added, and the Consul of Clan Plagueis holds this position. From here one adept in the Force can manipulate the minds of the weaker members, forcing the vote in the favor the Brotherhood wishes.

The Council meets quarterly, unless a special, emergency meeting is demanded by one of the members. During these meetings they are tasked with deciding tariffs, how much material to export, how much to allow imported, regulations and to hear any disputes between the corporations - most of these relate to territory disputes and allegations of theft or sabotage. This form of government has existed for over a hundred years, never being met with public outcry or challenge until a new group began demands for democracy. They are the Disciples of the Black Hand - a resistance group that is everywhere and nowhere, at once. They have begun terrorist attacks on all corporations, even attempting to destroy the Plagueis headquarters.

Change is not seen in the imminent future, though it is a possibility. If the government was ever changed to a senate, the members of Plagueis could easily fill the empty seats - giving their desires a fall illusion of 'pure' in the public eye. In addition, there is little worry about military coup, as the agents were enlisted early on, pledging their undying allegiance to the Clan. These warriors could be used to safeguard key locations, but never large enough to enforce a martial law.

== Military Presence ==
As previously stated, the military force is unusually small on the planet - most of the 'soldiers' are equivalent to the status of 'militia'. The corporations have given limited training and basic weaponry to their miners, breaking them into platoons that have specific duties, bases of operation in the event of a crisis. This level of soldier is extremely unreliable, but sometimes is enough to discourage outside forces from attacking.

With the Brotherhood funds funneling into the defense program, they have established an excruciating platform that produces few, but amazing warriors. Whom are later outfitted with the best equipment available. To ensure quick response time the main force has been broken into rotations, spanning the globe to give immediate response where it is needed. They are under the direct authority of the Ruling Council, and as such, the leader of the Council may solely order their actions in times of war or martial law. Giving the Consul of Plagueis a much needed ground force in addition to his own surrounding the [[Dark Tower]].
