'''Jeric Cyrin''' is a follower of the [[Sith Order]] and a [[Dark Jedi Knight]] within [[Clan Arcona]]. Currently Jeric serves as a [[Magistrate]] to the [[Herald]] and is positioned as a Tyro of [[Prophecy Phyle]] in [[House Qel-Droma]].  
A Disciple of Sadow and renounced Noble Lord of the [[starwars:Expanse|Expanse]], '''Jeric Cyrin''' is a Battlelord of the [[Sith Order]] and adherent of [[Obelisk]] traditions. He is a former Quaestor and Aedile of House Marka Ragnos. Jeric has also served as Praetor to the Herald and Right Hand of Justice. Currently he is a member of Battleteam [[Shadow’s Bane]], Sith Master to Vyrim and self proclaimed Sith Assassin.


Born on the fortress planet of [[starwars:Anaxes|Anaxes]], Jeric grew up as the son of an imperial general. He went on to join the Anaxes Security Force and later the [[starwars:Imperial Remnant|Imperial Remnant]]. In 26 ABY, Jeric was found by representatives of the [[Dark Brotherhood]] who convinced him to join. He did so in the hopes to find true understanding of the [[starwars:dark side|dark side of the force]]. During his first years in the Brotherhood Jeric was a member of [[Clan Taldryan]] and showed great effort to better himself. But Jeric soon became greedy and decided there was more to be learn. He left the Brotherhood in defiance of his Masters to pursue his own power. Jeric learn where his true destiny lied and returned to the Brotherhood only months later. He was quick to leave Taldryan in search of a fresh start. He found Clan Arcona and proved to be more promising then his new leaders first thought. He was given his [[Dark Jedi Knight|Trials of Knighthood]] which he successfully completed. But shortly after his trials the Brotherhood would return to Antei to retake their home planet. Jeric took part in the combat and quickly proved his worth. With the [[Ninth Great Jedi War|Liberation of Antei]] now over, Jeric has set many goals for himself and looks for every opportunity to grow each day.
== Character History ==
 
=== Early Life ===
 
==== Noble Heritage ====
 
[[File:CyrinPalace.jpg|thumb|200px|left|The Cyrin Family Estate]] Born and raised on the planet [[starwars:Canti System|Canti]] in the early months of [[0 BBY to 9 ABY|7 ABY]], Jeric Cyrin had a sophisticated and luxurious childhood. Years before Jeric’s birth his father, Mikel Cyrin, had capitalize on the discovery of [[starwars:Madilon|Madilon]] and established a mining enterprise on Nyriaan where the valuable metal was found. The family’s new found wealth and influence gave Mikel a seat on the Privy Council and made the Cyrin’s a Ruling Family of [[starwars:House Reena|House Reena]]. Shortly after Jeric’s mother was elected to represent Reena Province in the [[starwars:Tapani Great Council|Tapani Grand Council]]. She served for eight long years until her retirement around 13 ABY.
 
At age six Jeric’s mother and various caretakers began to instruct him. Nobles of [[starwars:Tapani Sector|Tapani Society]] where know to be well educated, especially in House Reena. Jeric learned everything from math and astronomy to ethics and philosophy. Around age twelve Jeric’s father began to teach him how to one day take a seat on the [[starwars:Privy Council|Privy Council]]. He also taught Jeric the code of conduct that Tapani Lords were expected to act in accordance with. By age thirteen Jeric joined a subclass of noble youth know as the [[starwars:Saber Rake|Saber Rakes]]. He became an expert duelist by the time he was only fifteen and was greatly respected by other Saber Rakes.  
 
==== Conscription ====
 
In [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|24 ABY]], Jeric was drafted into the Reena Defense Force. As per tradition, Nobles of the Reena Province were obligated to become officers in either the Army or Navy, upon reaching their seventeenth birthday. Only two years of active service was required before they could return to their life of royalty. Following his father’s footsteps Jeric entered the Royal Naval Academy of Reena. Within a year Jeric, now eighteen years of age, completed his officer’s training and was commissioned as a Lieutenant. During his training Jeric showed an uncanny ability to lead and strategize. He also had remarkable intuition and was able to make split second decisions in times of stress. Though he was not aware of this at the time this was all due to a rather high midi-chlorian count. Lieutenant Cyrin was assigned to one of Reena Navy’s four [[starwars:Marauder-class Corvette|Marauder-class Corvette]], the ''Horizon'', as one of the many junior bridge officers. In the later months of [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|25 ABY]], the Horizon and a few light escort vessels were scouting for asteroid fields rich in mineral deposits. After hours of searching the outskirts of the Caloria System, the ''Horizon'' and its escorts where ambushed by a small pirate force. 
 
[[File:Reena.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Naval HQ on House Reena's Throneworld]]The attack dealt significant damage to the ''Horizon''’s light escorts and an explosion on the bridge killed the Tac Officer. Without hesitation Jeric took over the tactical station and began to update the Commanding Officer on the ship’s shield strength and weapon status. Suddenly Jeric envisioned a tactical maneuver that would give the vessels an edge over the pirate force. Lieutenant Cyrin immediately told the CO to execute the maneuver he transmitted to the view screen. Just as he envisioned, the four Reena vessels positioned themselves and opened fire on the pirate forces severely damaging their main frigate and destroying one of the light vessels. The damaged frigate and its remaining escort retreated into hyperspace. Returning to the capital, Jeric received an advanced promotion to Lt. Commander and numerous commendations for his actions. He was appointed to the newly created position of Tactical Coordinator. Jeric was now responsible for planing Naval exercises and battle plans for the entire navy. He was even given his own office inside Naval Headquarters on Reena.
 
==== The Choice ====
 
Early into [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|26 ABY]], Jeric was sent out on a mission with three of Reena’s capital ship. The mission was to quell a group of mercenaries that had been terrorizing the Tavitz System. After completing the mission, Jeric took a shuttle and a two fighter escort back to Reena ahead of the three Corvettes. About half way a Modified version of an CR90 Corvette dropped out of hyperspace, disabling Jeric’s shuttle and destroying it’s two escorts. It was still unclear what happen but Jeric was presumed killed and considered MIA by Reena Military Officials.
 
Jeric was uncertain how long he had been unconscious and where he was exactly. After concentrating  he could faintly here the sound of ion-turbine engines and assumed he was on the corvette that had attacked his shuttle. Unknown to him the [[M/CRV Sirona]] was sailing through spaced heading towards the [[Antei System]]. Jeric’s eyes finally adjusted to his dimly lit cell and he realized a cloaked figure had been inside the small chamber all along. The figure stepped into a ray of light. Jeric began questioning the figure that stood in front of him. Instead of answering it waved its hand in a manner that told Jeric to be quite.
 
''"We are the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi. We have come to offer you guidance, a path to unlock your hidden power. Learn the ways of the force, of the Dark Side. It is your choice, join us or die."'' ~ [[Knight Commander]]
 
==== Dark Neophyte ====
 
Jeric had been on [[Lyspair]] at the [[Shadow Academy]] for more than a week now. In his first few days Jeric endured many tests to determined his physical strength and comprehension of the force. During his initiation Jeric learn about the star chamber, basic philosophy of the Dark Side and how to develop his powers. He spent days on end studying the many ancient scrolls the Brotherhood had in its possession. After spending roughly a month at the academy Jeric completed his initial trials and was given the test of lore. [[File:DarkVault.jpg|thumb|150px|left|The Halls of the Shadow Academy]]
 
Jeric easily passed the test and was promptly assigned to the brotherhood’s most prestigious clan, [[Clan Taldryan]]. It wasn’t long before a shuttle arrive to take Jeric to Altur, home planet of Taldryan’s [[Obelisk]] House, [[House Dinaari|Dinaari]]. Jeric settled into his new home on [[Altur]] almost immediately. It didn’t take long before he started catching the attention of his new masters. Spending hours studying ancient texts and was granted the level of Acolyte in a matter of days. Jeric had grown stronger as the months past, honing his combat skills and knowledge of the dark side.
 
Early into [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|27 ABY]] the brotherhood learned of an extra-galactic species, called the [[starwars: Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]], that had invaded the galaxy. The [[Grand Master]] of the Brotherhood summoned the great clans to prepare for inevitable invasion. Not long after Taldryan’s forces arrived at [[Antei]], Jeric began to have nightmares, visions, that his home world had been invaded as well. Jeric refused to stay and fight with the Brotherhood and left for the Reena Province.
 
==== Ruined Homecoming ====
 
It had been days since Jeric betrayed the brotherhood. He commandeering a [[starwars:TIE Defender|TIE Defender]] from the hanger of the [[BAC Dark Prophet II|''Dark Prophet II’']] and escaped before Taldryan’s fleet entered the [[The Shroud|Shroud]]. After a few layovers Jeric was in eyesight of House Reena’s throneworld. He immediately transmitted his landing codes to Naval Headquarters but got denied, his codes were likely deactivated after he was declared MIA. He retransmitted this time with an authorization pin unique to each person to confirm identity if rescued or found. After landing, Jeric quickly changed out of the blacked robes he had been wearing and into his duty uniform. He then head directly for the Command Center and once inside he warned the Admiral that the sector was in danger of attack. Surprise overcame everyone inside the room, surprise more so that Jeric was alive then the impending threat. 
 
A chain of events unraveled, the Admiral informed House Reena’s newly appointed [[starwars:High Lord|High Lord]], Jeric’s Father, who immediately contacted Tapani’s Prime Minister, who in turn actives emergency protocols. Each house’s military prepared for invasion and the leaders of each joined together in the War Room on [[starwars:Procopia|Procopia]] to coordinated the defense of the Sector. Not even a day passed when the first attacks began in the Cadriaan Province. Jeric elected to coordinate the coming battle from the ''Horizon'' and was granted a long due promotion to Commander. It wasn’t long before the Vong spread throughout the rest of Tapani space. The invaders overpowered the Reena Navy and did significant damage to the fleet. Luckily, before they could do any major damage to the sector as a whole, [[starwars:New Republic|Republic]] forces arrived and began pushing the invaders out of the sector.
 
In the aftermath of the battle, the damage was clear. The Reena Navy lost roughly seven ships, the ''Horizon'' lost it’s Captain and a number of crew. Jeric himself was injured, receiving a decent laceration on the left side of his face and a broken left hand. A few days later Jeric went to meet with his father. Mikel didn’t bother questioning where his son had been, he just requested that Jeric would stick around and offered him Captain of the ''Horizon''.
 
For almost a year now Captain Jeric Cyrin had successful served as the ''Horizon’s'' Commanding Officer. A couple of months ago the Reena Navy had to fend off another small attack from the Vong but the Reserve Battlegroup, the Republic left behind, assisted in defeating them. Other than that Jeric’s time as Captain wasn’t much; a few escort missions, one or two skirmishes against pirates, and to much patrolling. It wasn’t long before Jeric began to think about returning to the Brotherhood. His new found lust for power and desire to further his knowledge of the dark side burned away at him. In the final days of 27 ABY, the temptation of the dark side became to much for Jeric. He visited his father on Reena, to personally submit his letter of resignation. Jeric told his father that he needed to leave and unfortunately couldn’t explain why. Mikel wished him good luck and told him to take the family’s personal shuttle, a [[starwars:Theta-class T-2c shuttle|Theta-Class T-2c]], called ''Aurora''. Waiting for Jeric on the landing platform was the shuttle’s pilot, a beautiful naval Lieutenant named Vikaa Syndulla.
 
==== A Tyro Returns ====
 
[[File:JericFullBody.jpg|thumb|150px|left|A young Jeric, regal attire, Circa 28 ABY]]Jeric returned to the [[Kr'Tal System]] in the beginning of [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|28 ABY]], only to learn that much had changed. The Vong successfully attacked the heart of the Brotherhood, Antei, just as the Gand Master foresaw. They managed to overpower the Great Clans and forced the Dark Council to evacuate the planet. When Jeric arrived back on Altur he was greeted by the new Quaestor of Dinaari, [[Vladet Xavier]]. In a short amount of time, Jeric had distinguished himself and was chosen to be the next Dominus Sicarius: the Consul’s personal protector and master assassin. He found it a great honor and it wasn’t long before Jeric was elevated to Guardian of the Dark Path.
 
In mid 28 ABY Jeric approached the [[Headmaster]] and requested he become an instructor at the Shadow Academy. Jeric had proved to be more than knowledgeable in galactic history which was the slot the Headmaster wished to fill. Jeric’s summit began to noticed how quickly he had developed, growing in every way possible. They sensed that Jeric had the potential to be a great leader, placing him into the position of [[Rollmaster]] temporarily so he could hone his skills. Jeric impressed his masters, handling the duties of House Envoy with ease. Towards the end of the year the summit advance Jeric to the next level, Jedi Hunter.  
 
In early [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|29 ABY]], Jeric saw that the Emissary of the Dark Council was looking for assistants, he quickly applied and shortly after was accepted for the role. As a noble of Tapani society his diplomatic skills where more developed compared to most. About five months into Jeric’s first term as Magistrate he was sent on his first diplomatic mission. He was going to be negotiating use of the Citadel Station for whenever the brotherhood traveled along the Hydian Way. Within minutes after arriving on [[starwars:Telos|Telos]], Jeric immediately felt a strong pull from the Dark Side. Jeric shook it off so he could completed his mission. Once negotiations were done however, the young dark jedi went in search for the power he sensed. Even after all his achievements and growth since returning, this power made Jeric feel like the brotherhood was holding him back.
 
==== Forbidden Wisdom ====
 
Jeric had a few days to waste before he needed to report back to the [[Herald]] and so after a few hours of surveying the planet Lieutenant Syndulla found what look like an abandon temple in the northern polar region. This had to be the source of the energy, the pull of the dark side was strongest there. Lieutenant Syndulla landed the shuttle near a few of the structures and the two venture out into the snow. The entrance was a bit hard to find but Jeric eventually uncovered the large blast doors. The two searched thru the temple learning it was completely self-sufficient and was still running off an ancient form of power. Vikaa located a hanger that could house the shuttle during their stay and left Jeric to explore on his own. Jeric went thru many rooms finding food, supplies, and many Sith related artifacts. Unfortunately, none of them emanated the power he still sensed.
 
Finally he came to an opening that lead down into the underbelly of the temple. After venturing down a long staircase Jeric came to a stone door that looked different from the rest. Strange marks and symbols covered the door. With some effort and help from the force Jeric pushed the door open. He was amazed at what he found, a [[starwars:Telos Holocron|Sith Holocron]] unlike anything he had ever read about. Jeric took the holocron and made his way to a meditation chamber he found earlier, locking the doors behind him. Vikaa had a feeling they were going to be here way longer than a few days so she began unpacking the shuttle. As the days came and went she began to make the temple more of a permeant residence. Jeric had not come out of that chamber since he locked himself in. He would need to eat, drink, even sleep eventually Vikaa thought. Still the weeks went by and no sign of life came from the chamber. She knew he was still in there and knew he was still alive, she could see him sitting, eyes glued to the glowing holograms emitted by the thing he found.
 
What seemed like only a few days had been months spent inside the chamber. So many Dark Lords had contributed their teachings of the dark side or gave testimonials about the history and plight of the Sith. It was no surprise Jeric become lost inside the repository of lore and wisdom. When Jeric’s eyes open, as the last gatekeeper faded away, he was amazed to be alive still. His connection to the force and meditative state acted as a form of hibernation he assumed. His mind might have survived not eating, but his body was weakened tremendously. He could hardly lift himself up, let only stand. When Vikaa noticed Jeric moving she ran over to help. It took a few days but she finally nursed Jeric back to health. It had been six months since they arrived on Telos, it was time to go back to the Brotherhood.
 
=== Brotherhood’s Servant ===
 
==== Second Coming ====
 
Jeric returned in the beginning of [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|30 ABY]] only to find his former masters in Clan Taldyran not pleased with his disloyal ways. He was consider an exile and was stripped of all positions he held within the Clan. This didn’t bother him though, with his new knowledge it wouldn’t be long before he would regain everything and so he decided to start anew. An acquaintance of Jeric, [[Taigikori Aybara]], heard he had left Taldyran and offered him refuge in the Shadow Clan. Jeric was pleased to still have a friend and joined [[Clan Arcona]] under Taigikori’s leadership. Jeric didn’t get much time to adjust or settle in, for the Brotherhood was on the verge of liberating Antei. As the months passed training became heavily paced and tougher than anything Jeric had experienced. He show himself to be an outstanding duelist and practitioner of the force. Jeric was even asked to return to his former position as Magistrate of the Herald. Taigikori decided Jeric was more than ready to begin his Trails of Knighthood. Jeric proved Taigikori right, successfully completing the trials in less time than expected. The Tapani Noble was knighted as a true Dark Jedi of the Brotherhood, only days before going to war.
 
==== Unification ====
 
Unified by their thirst for vengeance and desire to take back their home world the [[Clan|Great Clans]] returned to [[Antei]] under the leadership of [[Sarin|Darth Sarin]]. However they weren’t prepared to fight a different enemy. Killed off by an unknown plague, the Vong were devastated and in their place an army of droids led by a Jedi crusader had taken their place. This wasn’t going to stop the Brotherhood from taking back Antei. Brutal fighting erupted the moment the armies of the brotherhood landed. Dark Jedi were being captured left and right, by the Jedi now know as [[Omancor Crask]]. He was testing their faith in the dark side, attempting to draw more to his cause.
 
Jeric finally got his first taste of true battle when he was called to accompany a detachment with the [[Army of the Iron Throne]]. Almost a hundred battle droids pounded the dark jedi and his detachment of 16 shock troopers. Thankfully a platoon of Arcona soldier showed up minutes later to back up Jeric. As the last of the battle droids where being destroyed Jeric was blind sided by a fellow clan member who had been turned. The traitor must have been a fellow Journeyman, a low-level one, Jeric managed to killed him with ease.
 
The battle ensued for days but finally ended in a struggle that sent shockwaves across all the brotherhood. Crask had surrendered and was brought before Grand Master Sarin. The old man deceived the Dark Lord, ripping a lightsaber from his detained apprentice’s body. A raging duel took place above the skies of Antei and ended in a fiery crash on the surface. The bodies of both Crask and Darth Sairn where found among the fiery ruins of the BAC [[Exodus]]. Dark Prophet [[Muz Ashen]] was named Sairn’s successor and became the new Dark Lord of the Sith.
 
The forces of Arcona returned to [[Dajorra System|Dajorra]] after being victorious on the battlefields of Antei. The victory was short lived though as trouble stirred in the darkness. For many months Arcona had taken advantage of the deals made with the Hutt Cartels and it was coming back to hunt them. Jeric didn’t stick around long enough to see the effects this would have on the Shadow Clan. Sometime in [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|31 ABY]] he was asked to serve as [[Aedile]] of [[Dorimad Sol]] alongside a fellow Magistrate to the Herald, Robin Hawk.
 
==== Spoils of War ====
 
Jeric had finally felt as if he had found his true calling within the Brotherhood. [[Scholae Palatinae]], the Royal Clan, was known for its direct ties with the Emperor’s Guards and its long imperial history. Apart from that, [[Dorimad Sol]], the house in which Jeric now proudly served as De-facto Head of State, was consider the military might of the Royal Clan. As [[Aedile]] Jeric had the distinct privilege of being immediately responsible for the [[Dorimad Sol Prospectus#Military|Caina Defense Force]]. Being both a Head of State and Military Leader was something Jeric knew all to well and it would eventually paid off.
 
Jeric ascended to the first level of Equites in late 31 ABY for his outstanding service to the Herald’s Office and his loyalty to the brotherhood during the Liberation of Antei. Not long after that Jeric was also awarded the brotherhood’s highest award of eminence, the Grand Cross of the Dark Side, for his superior leadership and development of the Caina Defense Force. Jeric was definitely not letting his superiors down, he was proving that his status as a Lord in the Tapani Society was becoming increasingly useful to the Brotherhood.
 
A few months into [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|32 ABY]], the Grand Master called for the clans to unite once more. Research teams had discovered a new planet, [[Salas V]], for the Brotherhood to conquer. However the planet was overrun by Killiks and they proved to much for the [[Armed Forces of the Iron Throne]]. Sensing the need for a common goal between the Clans and Houses, Grand Master Ashen called for a [[Rite of Supremacy]]. For which ever Clan proved their might would win the rights to the planet. During the battle the Dark Jedi of the Brotherhood became unsatisfied with just killing the Killiks and turned on each other as they sought to prove their own mastery of battle. Clan [[Scholae Palatinae]] was devastated during the Vendetta, many Dark Jedi were killed or unaccounted for. [[File:JericFullBodyV2.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Jeric Cyrin, Ceremonial Armor, Circa 32 ABY]]
 
In the months following the Rite of Supremacy, the Clan’s forces returned to the [[Cocytus System]] in the hopes of rebuilding. Much work was done to improve the military forces of [[Dorimad Sol]]. Even at the individual level the Dark Jedi of [[Scholae Palatinae]] trained so that a lost like that would never happen again. Of those who were unaccounted during the sacking of Salas V was the Herald’s adjutant, a Krath by the name of Raven. Towards the end of the year, Jeric was announced as Raven’s successor by [[Shikyo Keibatsu]] and made Praetor.
 
==== Herald’s Deputy ====
 
With Jeric’s appointed as Praetor to the Herald, tension began to rise between Jeric and his Quaestor, Robin Hawk. Many began to believe she had become corrupted and power hungry. Jeric didn’t want to get involved and have his career dragged down with hers. He sent in his letter of resignation to the Clan Summit and left for Antei to focus solely on his duties as Praetor. He made his new home in the underground levels of the Dark Hall.  
 
Towards the middle of 32 ABY, Shikyo Keibatsu was task by the [[Muz Ashen|Lion of Tarthos]] himself to head into the unknown regions. Whatever the mission was, it caused the Herald to disappear abruptly leaving Jeric in charge of all duties of the office. Shikyo must have known that his new Praetor was more than capable of being the public face of the Brotherhood. Jeric took on the monumental task of running that Herald’s Office with easy. During the Herald’s absence Jeric continued to make deals with outside parties to preserve and protect the secrecy of the brotherhood. Almost three months after the Dark Council’s Emissary left, Jeric was out on business acting as a liaison between two of the clans. He over heard rumors of treachery against the Iron Throne and feared some of the clans would rise up to over throw the Dark Council.
 
Without hesitation Jeric presented the evidence and the details surrounding the rumors to the Grand Master. The Dark Lord told Jeric that hints of treason had been flying around the Dark Hall for weeks now and that the Chamber of Justice was already conducting an investigation. Jeric was thanked for the new details and order to return to his ambassadorial duties. Not even a week later Jeric’s shuttle was attacked while on the way back from the [[Jusadih System]]. Luckily Vikaa was able to maneuver and escape the attack. This just proved that Jeric struck a nerve with these traitors. The Dark Council’s chief military officer order a starfighter escort for Jeric’s shuttle and a protective squad from the Army of the Iron Throne to be issued. However, that didn’t stop the attacks. A couple of days later Jeric’s office was vandalized.
 
Enough was enough, Jeric requested to leave the brotherhood temporally to let the situation dissolve. With the Herald returning in less than a month, Jeric assured the Grand Master that the current staff could manage for the next few weeks. Darth Ashen, agreed to let Jeric leave and assured him the problem would be fixed soon. Jeric left for the one place he knew Vikaa and himself would be safe, the Tapani Sector.
 
==== Cyrin Dynasty ====
 
The Honorable, Lord Jeric Cyrin return to his home on Canti a month before the years end. His mother was surprised to see her son after almost six years and his father was pleased to have his only son return home. The first thing Jeric did after coming home was marry his pilot and companion over the past five years, Lieutenant Vikaa Syndulla. The Ceremony was small and as High Lord, Jeric’s father had the power to join the two in matrimony. A couple of weeks later, over dinner, Jeric’s father explained that the family’s mining operation on Nyriaan had began to show signs of corruption. He asked if Jeric could go and personally oversee the operation. Jeric did so and in only a few days time was able to weed out those on the management staff that had become corrupted. It had been two months since leaving the Brotherhood, Jeric finally received news that the Master at Arms initiated a purge wiping out those suspected of treason. More than four hundred dark jedi involved disappeared abruptly. This was good news, it meant Jeric could return to the Brotherhood. Unfortunately things took a turn for the worst. While on his way back from Nyriaan, Jeric got word that the High Lord of Reena, his father, had just been assassinated.


== Character History ==
Devastated by the news Jeric initiated a full scale investigation. The Privy Council denied Lord Cyrin’s use of House Assets to conduct his investigation. Without even morning the death of Mikel Cyrin the Privy Council began voting for a new High Lord. Obviously there were some families that didn’t like the Cyrins and there was no doubt some members of the Privy Council were untrustworthy. He even suspected two of them in the plot to assassinate his father. Jeric had seen enough, it was time that he brought order back to House Reena. As a former naval Captain and thru use of the force Jeric persuaded the military to rally behind him. He then took the Reena Province by force, killing off those he suspected of being dishonest. Making himself Head of State wasn’t enough though, Jeric needed to ensure complete control over the House. Forcing martial law across the province, Jeric crowned himself [[starwars: Lord High Admiral|Lord High Admiral]] of the Reena Province.


=== Early Years (4 ABY - 20 ABY) ===
The Tapani Grand Council immediately questioned Jeric’s actions, but as a former representative his mother presented evidence to support what Jeric was doing. The Council agree to let it continued as long as it didn’t turn into an oppression and things stayed civil. For little less than a year Jeric made sure order returned to his House. A few conflicts arose between the other noble families and attacks happen on various mining industries. Nothing the military couldn’t handle under Jeric’s leadership. About seven months into [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|34 ABY]] Jeric felt as if his control over the province was successful in returning peace and justice. Jeric retracted martial law and left the new Privy Council in charge of electing a High Lord. For a third time Jeric made preparations to return to the Brotherhood.
Jeric Cyrin was born on Anaxes 4 years after the battle of Yavin. General life on Anaxes - for both the prestigious and the unfortunate - was strict and disciplined, very little lawlessness was tolerated. This was especially so in the capital city, [[starwars:Pols Anaxes|Pols Anaxes]]. [[Image:PolsAnaxes.jpg|thumb|175px|left|Pols Anaxes, Capital City of Anaxes]]The Cyrin family was among the upper class that lived in the [[starwars:Sirpar Hills|Sirpar Hills]]. Cyrin’s father, an Imperial Rear Admiral, served as the Commodore for [[starwars:Azure Shield|Azure Shield]], a unit within [[starwars:Azure Hammer Command|Azure Hammer Command]] charged with the protection of the Azure Sector. Cyrin’s mother was a former senator for their planet, unfortunately she died three years after Jeric was born due to alien disease.  Jeric’s father was still actively serving in the military and due to the role of Anaxes, as protector of the core, he was never home. Jeric would stay home, in the family Estate, watched & cared for by the Housekeeper, Eesla Lylin.  


Before retirement, upon which she became the family’s housekeeper, Lylin was an Instructor at one of the private schools located in the capital city. When Jeric turned six she began to home school him, giving him general studies. Three years later she began teaching him subjects like political science & Philosophy. For being only nine years of age, he excelled in those areas, quickly learning skills to become a great leader & knowledgeable historian.
==== A Worthy Pupil ====


==== Son of an Imperial General ====
[[File:DB_Creon_small.jpg|250px|left|Jeric's new apprentice]]In the beginning of [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|35 ABY]], on his way back to Antei, Jeric thought about the attacks on his life and how they could endanger his new wife. Jeric wanted someone that he could mold and train to act as his personal bodyguard. Someone that could be a valuable asset not only to him but to the brotherhood. A warrior, someone strong, someone who was not afraid to kill or die. Jeric began to search through a database looking at former military personnel, convicts, and known mercenaries.


Shortly after the [[starwars:New Republic|New Republic]] captured [[starwars:Courscant|Courscant]] they began pushing into the neighboring sectors trying to flush out any reaming Imperial Forces. Azure Hammer Command tried its best to keep Republic forces out of [[starwars:Sector Zero|Sector Zero]] for months with no luck. After entering the [[starwars:Azure Sector|Azure Sector]], the forces of Azure Shield began holding their ground against the Republic. It took almost a year for the Republic to push Admrial Cyrin’s forces back to Anaxes. Finally in 14 ABY it was decided that the forces of Azure Hammer Command along with the Imperial citizens of Anaxes would surrender to the New Republic, but only under a few conditions. The Republic agreed to the conditions and took control of the planet. Under the conditions Cyrin’s Father was allowed to reform Azure Shield into a much smaller planetary security force and was appointed as Head of Planetary Security.
Jeric eventually found one potential candidate, a former nameless heavy trooper who had been drafted at a young age. It didn’t take long for Jeric to hack the holonet and access his full profile under the nomenclature CS-12097. Jeric checked his medical file and found his midi-chlorian count was just around 18,000, more than enough to be trained.The heavy trooper had later adopted the name [[Creon Saldean|Creon]].  


Almost six years later, Jeric now 16 years of age, decided he wanted to join the Security Forces. After a quick talk about his plans, Jeric’s father explain that he was still 2 years short of being able to serve actively in the Anaxes Security Force. However he was at the perfect age to join the Junior Officers Indoctrination Program. The following morning he took a transport into the heart of Pols Anaxes where the Anaxes Citadel was located. Upon his arrival he was greeted by his father and the Dean for the Anaxes Military Academy. After a quick orientation Jeric began the admissions process and started down the path to become an Officer for his planet’s security.
While making a layover in Coruscant, Jeric paid a visit to the soldier. He offered Creon a chance at untapped power and special training under the [[Iron Forces]], he only asked that he pledge total allegiance to him. After a period of uncertainty, Creon accepted the offer at his new master’s shuttle only moments before it left for the Brotherhood.


=== Military Career (21 ABY - 26 ABY) ===
==== Disciple of Sadow ====


==== Officer Indoctrination ====
Jeric returned in the later months of [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|35 ABY]], only to find each of the great clans split into independent houses. Jeric figure it was probably due to the purge that happen earlier that year. The Herald was glad to see his prodigy return and as a gift for his dedicated loyalty to the office, Shikyo elevated Jeric to the second tier of Equites. In the weeks following his return Jeric and his new apprentice found a home in the Heirs to the Empire, [[Clan Naga Sadow|House Naga Sadow]]. They were pleased that Jeric brought fresh blood to them along with himself. It didn’t take long for Jeric to settle into Naga Sadow, he befriended the Aedile, [[Fremoc Pepoi]] and was asked to be the Pepoi Family’s personal armorer. The same could not be said for his apprentice though. It seem as if Creon was lost or maybe overwhelm by all the presence of the Dark Side that now surrounded him. Jeric had noticed that over the course of a few weeks his apprentice’s performance and interactions with the other Dark Jedi were unfavorable. Jeric tasked out his apprentice to go on mission with the Regulator’s to see if that would get his motivation up.


Jeric had been attending & residing at the Anaxes Military Academy, for 10 months now. He was already in the top ten of his class and rank as a Cadet Lieutenant. At the end of the first year Jeric received honors for his excellent academics in the fields of leadership & tactics. In between the 2 academic years the Cadets where transferred to the Field Training Compound. The compound sat on top of the only desert on Anaxes, beaten by the heat of [[starwars:Solis Axum|Solis Axum]] more than any other part of the planet. Here the cadets would endured the physical stress of field training for 16 weeks.  
In the beginning of [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|36 ABY]] Fremoc was appointed as the Grand Master’s Enforcer and subsequently [[FIST|Commander of the Royal Guard]]. It didn’t take him long to approach Jeric and recommend he be initiated into the Royal Guard. Trusting his friend’s wisdom Jeric did so and became one of few Elite Dark Jedi that have the privilege of protecting members of the Dark Council. Even more opportunities presented themselves in the coming weeks, allowing Jeric to quickly establish his name in Naga Sadow. A few weeks had passed and Jeric’s first taste of combat since returning presented itself. House Tarentum had requested help in dealing with a rakghoul plague that had infested their system. Naga Sadow acknowledged their need and saw itself working alongside a ghost from Jeric’s past, House Taldyran.  


During the last weeks Jeric had been able to lead his detachment to victory in every combat exercise by seeing things before they happened. He didn’t understand how he was seeing things but decided to use it to his advantage anyways. Whatever it was it even gave him abnormal strength and speed. Drill Instructors where amazed at how easily Jeric would perform physical exercises. Though he did not know it at the time, he was unconsciously using the [[starwars:Force|Force]]. After a long hard 4 months of field training the cadets where sent back to the academy to complete the last year of academic studies.
==== Burden of Aiding ====


It was finally the end of the 28 month Indoctrination Program. The Cadets where promoted to Commissioned Officers and assigned to various positions within the Security Forces. Cyrin’s father was more than pleased to hear his sons list of achievements over the past 28 months. Jeric was commissioned as a Captain and placed in command of the 2nd Security Company of Pols Anaxes.  
[[File:JericFullBodyV3.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Jeric Cyrin, Lord High Admiral Uniform, Circa 35 ABY]]A few days into the joint operation, Jeric and his apprentice were asked to deal with the plague on [[Yridia IV]] by providing medical supply to local villages.  As a Senior Commander within D-SOG Jeric was assigned a detachment of Commandos for his mission. After arriving at the Messina Estate and meeting with its owner, a former [[Headmaster]], the two Dark Jedi and their detachment made their way down to the villages in the valley below. After providing aid to a number of people, Creon suggested that he take a few commandos and begin helping the village on the other side of the river. Jeric was hesitant, his apprentice still being so new to the dark side. Even with three commandos at his side a handful of the rakghoul mutants would pose a threat. Jeric eventually let his apprentice do as he wished. However, it didn’t take long before Jeric sensed Creon was in danger. Leaving his commandos to provide aid to the rest of the village, Jeric went to the other side of the river. Backed into a corner Jeric found his apprentice with only one commando living, taking cover behind some rubble. Almost a dozen rakghoul where clawing at the two. Catching the rakghoul’s attention Jeric concentrated his energy and released a powerful blast of the force just as the first one tried to jump him. Crushing their bones and sending them flying into the surrounding rubble Jeric wiped them all out in less than a second.  


For two years, the now, Major Cyrin had helped keep Pols Anaxes crime and conflict free, however the 2nd hardly saw action anymore. Jeric itched for some excitement, the training and skills he had where being wasted just sitting behind his desk. One day though, in 24 ABY, Jeric got his break. Word of Imperial Recruiters in Pols Anaxes reached the ears of Jeric. Apparently conflicts between the Remnant, the Republic as well, and a alien race known as the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] had broken out. Both Imperial & Republic leaders where lead to believe that a war would erupt and both governments needed to expand their militaries immediately. Jeric realized this could be his chance for some real action and excitement.  
The two Dark Jedi and their commandos finished up their mission and returned to the ''Immolator'' that was in orbit around Yridia IV. Days later, before Jeric could even see his second mission, the joint operation was finished. Either all the rakghoul were killed or they all disappeared, Jeric was unsure what truly happen. Naga Sadow’s forces return to the [[Orian System]] and began to retrofit for their next battle. Jeric continued to spar with his apprentice but saw a drop in his motivation again. Having to be saved must have put a damper on his strong Zabrak ego. Two months later Jeric was called back to Antei by the Emissary of the Dark Council. The Herald was leaving on a diplomatic trip and Jeric would yet again need to return to the underground levels of the Dark Hall. He left a long list of assignments for Creon to completed in his absences and asked Rollmaster [[Teu Pepoi]] to watch over him.


==== Imperial Resurgence ====
==== Vanished Potential ====


Early the next morning Jeric headed to the Imperial Recruitment Center to sign up for the Imperial Army. After going through the initial process his recruitment officer, Lieutenant Rax, told him that he was eligible for a few enlistment bonuses. Jeric was happy to hear that he would not have to train at the [[starwars:Academy of Carida|Academy of Carida]]. He was even more please to hear he would receive a Senior Non-Commissioned Officer rank and immediate placement into a unit. That night Jeric returned to his quarters in the 21st Company Barracks to pack his things. He gave a farewell speech to his troopers and handed command over to his Executive Officer. He then grab his things and headed to his father’s office. He told his father that he decided to join the remnant, and the former imperial officer could do nothing but accept his son’s choice and wish him good luck. Two hours later Jeric was on a [[starwars:Sentinel-Class Shuttle|Sentinel-Class Shuttle]] on route to Bastion to officially join the Imperial Military.  
Several months had past since Jeric returned to Antei, the new year was right around the corner. The Herald came and went just as he always did leaving his Praetor to deal with the daily bureaucracy of the office. Jeric was lucky enough to see the construction of a new colosseum specifically for the upcoming independence games. He could only hope that the Dark Council’s Emissary would return from his latest mission in time for Jeric to take part. In the final month of 35 ABY Jeric’s Magistrate, Ekeia Iclo, was briefing the Emissary’s Deputy on the past months diplomatic endeavors between the Dark Houses and outside parties. Apparently an alliance between Naga Sadow and Jeric’s original home, Taldryan, was in the works. Ekeia suggested that the Herald’s office keep a close eye on the possible alliance. No sooner did the conversation between his magistrate end did a call from Sepros get patched thru to Jeric’s office. According to Naga Sadow’s Rollmaster Jeric’s apprentice, Creon, had gone missing. Disturbing was this information, Jeric left Antei immediately bound for Sepros. After arriving on the throne world of Naga Sadow Jeric attended a quick meeting of the Royal Guard before speaking with Teu regarding his apprentice. According to her, Creon stopped showing up to training like he regular did. A D-SOG Solider claimed to have last seen Creon almost two weeks ago. Jeric immediately departed for [[Tarthos]] to investigate. On his way there he was contacted by Regulator’s Sergeant, [[Mirado Pepoi L'eonheart|Mirado L’eonheart]], who told him about a criminal gang who had been kidnapping people with ties to the [[Dlarit Corporation]]. While visiting his apprentice’s quarters in the Black Sector of [[Markosian City]], Jeric saw a vision of Creon defecting to the Jedi of Clan Odan-Urr after struggling with the criminal gang that Sergeant L’eonheart told him about, the Lazarus Stars. After discussing the situation with Mirado the two dark jedi realized that apprehending Creon would be a daunting task that could lead to war. Jeric was disappointed in Creon and vowed to kill him should they ever meet again. The apprentice had untapped capabilities, but he was a lost cause now. Jeric returned to Antei less than three weeks before the opening ceremonies of the independence games.  


When Jeric arrived on [[starwars:Bastion|Bastion]] he was assigned a liaison to help him through the integration process. [[Image:ISDExpansion.jpg|thumb|150px|left|The ISD Expansion in hyperspace]]After a few hours of finalizing all his papers and completing the physical exams, Jeric was processed into the Imperial Army as a Master Sergeant. The Army Liaison was now helping Jeric find a position that would suit his rank. The Liaison was able to find a recreantly opened Platoon Sergeant position so Jeric decided to go with it. A few hours later Jeric put on his new imperial uniform and packed his effects. 15 minutes later Jeric was transported to the Imperial-Class Star Destroyer ''Expansion'' which was scheduled to bring supplies and additional forces to [[starwars:Ithor|Ithor]]. Jeric’s new assignment, the 18th Special Mission Platoon, was station on that planet along with the rest of the 82nd Assault Battalion. During the long flight to Ithor Jeric had time to talk with some troopers and naval officers to get an idea of how life in the Imperial military would be. He found at least 5 troopers fresh out of the Academy that where being place into the 18th Platoon. When the ISD ''Expansion'' finally arrived in orbit around Ithor Jeric went to the Hanger Bay to be transported to the planet. Once on the surface Jeric made his way to Section 2A, of the Prefabricated Imperial Base, where his Platoon’s barracks was located. As he entered the barracks he was greeted by the Platoon Commander, who had just returned from Recruitment Duty, Lieutenant Rex. The two shared a laugh and then got straight to work doing their duties.
==== Corporate Pawn ====


==== Service to the Remnant ====
[[File:HiltofMarque.jpg|thumb|100px|left|Various Hilt of Marques]] With the Celebration of the [[Exodus]] came the rebirth of [[Naga Sadow]] as a Clan of the Brotherhood. Jeric distinguished himself during the games earning five seals and making Naga Sadow’s leadership proud. After the games ended Jeric left for the [[Orian System]]. Once Jeric arrive within Naga Sadow’s Domain he received a transmission from former Obelisk Sergeant and now Executive Director [[Mirado Pepoi L'eonheart]]. The transmission was urgent so Jeric headed straight for [[Aeotheran]]. Dropping out of hyperspace Jeric docked with the [[Marakith Skyhook]] and proceeded to find the Knight that had summon him. Mirado explained to his senior that the [[Dlarit Corporation]] needed to grow and improve it’s economy. [[House Shar Dakhan]] was created for the purpose of finding new sources of revenue and acquire supplies for the Corporation. As an Executive Director, Mirado was given control over certain assets and subsidiaries of the Corporation. After explaining all this to Jeric, Mirado set a small wooden box on his desk and slid it forward. A small plaque was forged into the lid, the letters plated in electrum spelled out Tapani Noble’s name. When Jeric opened it, three objects rested within the velvet lining: a scroll, a ring, and a lightsaber hilt. Jeric was told that before him was a letter of marque and the items that show his authority as a privateer for the [[Dlarit Corporation]]. After explaining the jurisdiction of his new position Mirado wasted little time in giving Jeric orders for his first mission.


It had been roughly 15 months since Jeric decided to join the Remnant. For the past year Jeric had enjoy working closely with the troopers of the 18th Special Mission Platoon. Recently the 18th was charge with guarding an Imperial Space Port where supplies and reinforcements would land form the orbital blockade. About 2 months ago the Yuuzhan Vong had begun their attacks on the [[starwars:Outer Rim|Outer Rim]]. The New Republic had officially declared war against the Vong during the [[starwars:Battle of Dantooine|Battle of Dantooine]]. After their defeat the New Republic along with the Imperial Remnant began working together to prepare Ithor for battle. Jeric was out with Aurek Squad & Dorn Squad when the attacks began. Jeric had received a communication from LT Rex informing him that 20 [[starwars:miid ro'ik|miid ro'ik]] warship just appeared out of no where and had begun attacking the orbital Blockade. Jeric was order to bring Aurek & Dorn to Outpost Delta, while LT Rex would take Besh & Cresh Squads to Outpost Alpha. One of the predetermined landing spots for Vong forces was in between the two outpost. Jeric had Dorn Squad set up perimeter defenses around the presumed landing spot in order to surprise the Vong.  
One of the Corporation’s plans was to secretly cut off supply to nearby star systems. In turn they would look to the Corporation for aid, thus growing Naga Sadow’s domain. Mirado’s first mission for Jeric was to intercept and raid a supply convoy from the Organization causing the neighboring Stereghat System to seek support from Naga Sadow instead of its current enemy. Intel had been received from an unidentified source that one of these Supply Convoys would run right along the border of the Orian and Stereghat Systems. Preparing a crew, Jeric set out on the VAC ''Despot'' with [[Macron Sadow]] and [[Jade Sadow]] beside him and the support of another Privateer, [[Masika Oshairana]], aboard the VAC ''Turmoil''. Things took a turn for the worst during the trip however. Jeric received a highly encoded transmission from his former senior aide on Reena, Niko Sipes. It was this transmission that would change the course of Jeric’s future in the Brotherhood....forever.


Minutes after Dron Squad returned hundreds of Vong coralskippers broke into the atmosphere and just as expected, a few hundred Vong Warriors landed. They where immediately caught off guard by the mines and auto turrets that Dorn Squad had set up. After the traps inflicted heavy damage on the Vong, Jeric & Rex converged the Platoon on the remaining forces. After a short skirmish with the remaining vong Rex received orders to return to the Prefab base which had been infiltrated by a number of vong hunters. Then entire 82nd Assault Battalion was converging back on the base after being deployed to the predicted landing points. After battling back the Vong for almost an hour they began to retreat and return to space. Minutes later the 82nd was given orders to do the same. The 82nd made it off the planet right on time, as minutes later billions of lethal bioweapons were dropped onto Ithor's surface rendering the planet lifeless almost immediately. As Vong forces where trying to retreat a Interdictor Cruiser came out of hyperspace and activated its gravity well, keeping the retreating vong fleet close to Ithor. The Republic & Imperial Fleets ordered all their ships to fire on the Yuuzhan Vong fleet. The combine forces decimated the fleet, and the vong’s flagship, ''Legacy of Torment'', was destroyed. The ship collided with Ithor, igniting the atmosphere and killing the planet. After, the Imperial Remnant made the choice to withdraw from the war and all forces where order to return to the [[starwars:Braxant Sector|Braxant Sector]] by [[starwars:Grand Admiral|Grand Admiral]] [[starwars:Pellaeon|Pellaeon]]. Upon their return Jeric, Rex, and the other leaders within the 82nd received honors from the Grand Admiral himself.
=== A New Darkness ===


Over the next year, the newly promoted, First Sergeant Cyrin along with the 18th where station on [[starwars:Bastion|Bastion]] as a security platoon for the Imperial Military Operations Complex. Four months before the end of 26 ABY Jeric was promoted yet again to the rank of Sergeant Major and transferred from his platoon to become the Command Sergeant Major for the 82nd Battalion. About 7 weeks later while Jeric was going to meet with the other Senior NCOs of the 82nd he was attacked and taken from Bastion. Unaware as to how much time had passed, Jeric awoke in a poorly lit room hearing nothing but the engines of a starship. As his eyes adjusted to the darkness he notice he wasn’t alone. Three cloaked figures where standing in front of him. They looked like shadows with no physical features visible. The middle on stepped forward and introduced himself simple as the [[Knight Commander]]. Jeric was told that they had felt his strong affinity for the force during the battle of Ithor. The Knight Commander told Jeric that he had special skills and would better serve them. When Jeric asked who “they” where, no one answered him. Instead he was given two choices: join them or return to the remnant and face certain death.
==== Chaotic Truth ====


=== The Brotherhood (26 ABY to Present) ===
{{Quote|My Lord, I regret to inform you that Civil War has broken out within the Reena Province, your homeworld and a few others have already been lost to the rebels. Your estate was burned to the ground, I am sorry but your wife and mother where unable to make it out in time. The Great Council of Tapani has made the decision to abolish House Reena and release it from the Expanse. The Ruling Families of Reena have lost all rights, royalties, and assets. I am sorry.|Transmission from Niko to Jeric}}


==== Novice of the Dark Side ====
[[File:JericDataPad.jpg|thumb|150px|right|The Message Jeric Received]]Jeric had just lost everything that made him who he was; his title of nobility, his riches,  the last of his family, and his loving wife all because of a damn uprising. The reality of what just transpired filled him with hatred, Jeric opened himself to the dark side and let it consume him. He would make himself rich again even if he had to abuse his letter of marque. Stealing what he wanted, when he wanted, from anyone not an ally to the [[Dlarit Corporation|Corporation]]. Jeric’s original orders were to raid the convoy for retail and food supplies. But that wasn’t enough to satisfy his rage. He told the three other dark jedi who had accompanied him that plans had changed and their orders were to now take everything and destroy the convoy so the attack couldn’t be traced back to the Corporation. Everyone was shocked, but between the encoded message Jeric received and his clever lie the change made sense. However when they arrive to the coordinates they saw nothing, no convoy. Jeric assumed they were early until two [[starwars:Majestic-Class heavy cruisers|Majestic-Class heavy cruisers]] dropped out of hyperspace and locked weapons. A message from a Captain Larin informed Jeric that his ships were suspected of piracy by the Galactic Alliance and were to be boarded.


Jeric soon learned that they where a [[Dark Brotherhood|Brotherhood of Dark Jedi]], unknown to the galaxy, hiding in the shadows of space, waiting for their moment.[[Image:Shadowacademy.jpg|175px|right|thumb|The Shadow Academy]] Jeric had agreed to join them and was brought to the [[Shadow Academy]] on the planet [[Lyspair]]. There he begun his initial training, studying the ancient texts of the Brotherhood and slowly developing his powers. After spending a month at the Shadow Academy Jeric completed his initial dark side trials and was given the test of lore. Jeric easily passed the test and was promptly assigned to the brotherhood’s most prestigious clan, [[Clan Taldryan]]. He was transported to the planet [[Altur]] where he would serve as a member of [[House Dinaari]] to further his understanding of the dark side. When he arrived Jeric was greeted by the House Leaders and felt very welcomed. He was assigned a room, on Sub-Level One of the House’s HQ, which he immediately got settled into. After a much needed nap he decided to visit the Dinning hall for a meal and to meet some of his new brothers.  
The hot headed Sith knew something was up. The Galactic Alliance and Corporation share a partnership. Both the ''Despot'' and ''Turmoil''  bear the markings of the Corporation and though the partnership was uneasy at times, the Alliance would never enter the [[Orian System]] without notification. Also how the hell did they know two vessels from the Corporation would be in this exact location at this exact time. Without hesitation Jeric gave the order to disable the two cruisers and lunch boarding parties. If it was piracy he was suspected of, it was piracy he would commit.  


Over the next few days Jeric would show great effort to better himself and further his knowledge. He would spend hours a day inside the training rooms and then meditating before he would travel back to Lyspair to gain more knowledge about the dark side. Jeric was quickly elevated to the level of Novice thanks to his time spent at the Academy. About 3 weeks later Jeric felt like he need to return to his old life for sometime in order to tie up loose ends. He told his House Summit that he needed leave for personal reasons and wouldn’t be returning any time soon. Disappointed that a promising member was leaving, they approve and signed his transport order to the ‘’Dark Prophet II‘’.  
After the attack, Jeric was confronted, on board one of the Alliance ships, by the Corporation’s Chief Personnel Officer, [[Lynyrd Pepoi]], demanding a reason as to why he attacked an ally to the Corporation. Jeric tried to explain the situation but was called to the ''Turmoil'' to meet up with Executive Director [[Teu Pepoi]]. Jeric along with Macron and Jade, left Lynyrd on the bridge to clean up the mess the nobleman, turn Sith, had apparently made.  


Once on board the Bothan Assault Cruiser, Jeric talked with the Hanger Operations Officer to ask if they had any unused fighters. The Officer confirmed they had 2 [[starwars:TIE Defenders|TIE Defenders]] and 1 [[starwars:TIE Hunter|TIE Hunter]] in storage. Jeric showed the Officer the transport order and asked for one of the Defenders. After getting clearance from the Dark Prophet II’s Captain and the Fighter Group Admiral. The TIE Defender was brought out of storage and put on to the launch racks. Jeric put on a Flight Suit and placed his stuff into the Defender’s storage compartment. Once the Defender, which Jeric had christened the Night Fall, was cleared from the [[BAC Dark Prophet II]] he put in the coordinates for Anaxes and made the jump into hyperspace.  
Jeric met up with Teu on the bridge of the [[VAC Turmoil|VAC ''Turmoil'']], she didn’t look pleased and demanded that they speak in private. The Executive Director led Jeric into the ship’s war room and order that he take a seat. She began interrogating Jeric about what happen and finally reveled that Doctor L’eonheart, wife and proxy to the Corporation’s President, was listening in. Doctor L’eonheart quickly told Jeric the truth, everything that transpired was a set-up on the Organization’s behalf and any existence of this mission would be destroyed. Jeric was order to return to [[Tarthos]] with Teu and with Doctor L’eonheart’s closing statement assigned Jeric as Teu’s Senior Director and new Aedile of [[House Marka Ragnos]].


==== Closing loose Ends ====
==== Festival of Unrest ====


The Kr’Tal System was surprisingly closer to the Core Worlds region than Jeric had originally thought, arriving in the [[starwars:Axum System|Axum System]] in under 13 hours. While on approach to Pols Anaxes, he contacted Landing Authority for the [[starwars:Anaxes Citadel|Anaxes Citadel]] and provided his clearance code.[[Image:anaxesspace.jpg|150px|right|thumb|View of Anaxes as Jeric returned]] When Jeric landed, he changed into his ASF Dress Uniform and made his way to his father’s office. On the way he was greeted by a number of officers and troopers, who addressed him as Major. Some parts of him felt joy to be referred to as Major again, but other parts knew it held nothing in compare to the power his levels in the brotherhood would hold. When Jeric enter his father’s office, his father was surprised to see Jeric again after 2 years. Apparently his father had heard from the Remnant that Jeric was kidnapped and possible killed. When he ask Jeric what had happen Jeric didn’t answer. Instead he ask if he could spend the next 6 weeks or so on the planet training the new cadet. His father agreed as long as Jeric would tell him what happened before he left again. Major Cyrin proudly returned to the Anaxes Field Training Compound to meet up with the 16th SF Training Company. He ended up spending an extra two weeks helping train these new cadets to protect his home planet. On the last day of 26 ABY Jeric decided it was best if he left, so he pack his things and headed to see his father one last time. His father asked again what had happen to him. Jeric told his father that he was taken from the Remnant to become a Dark Jedi and that he could say nothing further. His father didn’t know what to said and instead gave his son one last hug. Jeric returned to his TIE Defender to leave his home planet for good.
By mid [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|36 ABY]] Jeric was already completely emerged in the daily operations of the Corporation and did a lot to aid Executive Director Pepoi in her duties. Jeric decided to relieved himself as Praetor, allowing for Magistrate [[Ekeia Iclo]] to take his spot next to the Herald. Not even a month after he stepped away from one Dark Summit position another present itself. Jeric was approach by the Dark Prophet of Justice, [[Kir Katarn]], who request the Sith’s services as his [[Right Hand of Justice|Prosecutor]] of the Brotherhood.  
      Back in the emptiness of space Jeric put the coordinates for Bastion into the nav computer and engaged the hyperdrive. Jeric decided to mediate during the 19 hour flight and saw what the Knight Commander had talked about 16 months ago. Roughly a year from now, at the beginning of 28 ABY, the Vong would invade Imperial space forcing the remnant to reenter the war. Many Imperials will be killed when Bastion is attacked. Jeric awoke from his meditation right as the Night Fall came out of hyperspace in front of Bastion and a armada of Star Destroyers. He located Grand Admiral Pellaeon’s flagship, gave his clearance code, and docked inside the [[starwars:Chimaera|ISD Chimaera]]. [[Image:imperialmeeting.jpg|150px|left|thumb|SGM Cyrin meeting with Imperial Leaders]]Once on the bridge he spoke directly to Line Captain Ardiff and told him that it was urgent that he spoke with the Supreme Commander. Pellaeon cleared the Sergeant Major to enter his quarters and almost immediately inquired what was so important. Jeric reminded Pellaeon about his disappearance a year ago and told the Grand Admiral a false story of how he was taken by the vong. Apparently Jeric had learned about an future attack on Imperial Space before he managed to escaped that Vong. Jeric offered to help prepare the Remnant for the attack and was immediately positioned on the High Command as a Senior NCO Advisor. Jeric work with the military commanders and intelligence directors day in and day out for a year and a half. The Remnant was as ready as it could be. The Vong finally began attacking the Braxant Sector 9 month after Jeric had originally foreseen. When the Vong Fleet arrive at Bastion the Imperial Fleet wasn’t there, but seconds later dropped out of hyperspace behind the Vong, just as Jeric and the military commanders had planned. During the battle the Chimaera was heavily damaged and Jeric used the chaos as cover to escape to the Hanger Bay. He retrieved his TIE Defender and left the Chimaera, jumping into hyperspace leaving everyone to believe he was killed. It was time for Jeric to return to the Brotherhood.


==== Return to Darkness ====
The Corporation’s hold over Tarthos, under Teu and Jeric’s command, had expanded greatly allowing a small representative government to turn into a planet wide government. A new Governor was elected by Executive Director Pepoi in place of the old more popular one. Eventually an internal power struggle forced Teu Pepoi to return to her former position as the Corporation's Chief Personal Officer, leaving the position of [[Dlarit Corporation Ranks and Titles|Executive Director]] to Jeric. [[File:Markosian_City.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Markosian City before the Riots]]


[[Image:8539oldbanner.jpg|125px|left|thumb|Jeric‘s Original Warbanner]]Jeric returned to the [[Kr'Tal System]] two years after leaving, only to learn that much has changed. While Jeric was away the Vong attacked the heart of the Brotherhood, [[Antei]], forcing the new [[Grand Master]] & his [[Dark Council]] to evacuate the planet. Since then the Great Clans have worked to build up their military strength, in preparation for retaking the Brotherhood’s home planet. The Grand Master himself had reformed the old military into a new one directly loyal to the iron throne. When Jeric arrive back on Altur he was greeted by the new Quaestor of Dinaari, [[Vladet Xavier]]. During his first weeks back he showed a lot of potential to his new summit. Jeric made many trips to the new mobile Shadow Academy located on the Khyron-class Dreadnaught [[Arcanum]]. Jeric quickly advanced his knowledge of the force and galactic history. His masters watched as he perform exceptionally well in training simulations and force exercises eventually awarding him the title of Dominus Sicarius. Around the same time Jeric was finally able to have a [[Warbanner]] tailored for him. This flag would identify him on the battlefield and so he decided to embedded it with his family’s crest. [[Image:heraldlogo.jpg|75px|right|thumb|Emblem of the Herald]]
Under his directive new military installations were created and new mining operations opened across the planet. Jeric also wanted to speed up the reconstruction efforts in [[Kar Alabrek]], so that it could soon be renamed as the planet’s capital city. Starting with rebuilding and modernizing the Castle then moving on to the Northern Coastline which was nearly finished. The goal was to push the city's completion from [[40 ABY to 49 ABY|44 ABY]] to the end of the decade. Even Markosian City was almost finished under Jeric’s watch, all major projects were completed and every sector was operational.  


After two months of faithfully serving his house Jeric was finally starting to develop as a full Dark Jedi. He was given a chance to serve on the house summit to train in the Rollmaster position. Jeric learn a lot in the short time that he served as a house leader. He was recognized for successfully completing the training with an elevation to Jedi Hunter bringing him one step closer to being a true Dark Jedi. A few weeks later Jeric was taken as an assistant to the Brotherhood’s [[Herald]]. During his three months serving under the Brotherhood’s public face Jeric learn many usefully skills like Diplomacy and Administrative Ethics from the [[Dark Council|Dark Counselor]] himself.  
[[File:FestivalBanner.png|thumb|100px|right|The Banner designed by Quaestor Cyrin]] The Festival of Renewal, a Marka Ragnos Holiday, was planned in light of the tremendous efforts made to renovate Kar Alabrek. Naga Sadow’s Consul and Jeric wanted to celebrate and give the people of [[Tarthos]] a break. However the Organization threaten to ruin the event and persuade the people to turn on their government. Security was tight on the [[Kar Alabrek#Northern Coastline|Northern Coastline]] of Kar Alabrek in the week prior to the festival. Jeric commissioned the best tailors Tarthos had to offer to create a banner that he designed. The banner was to instill the citizen of Kar Alabrek with pride in their government and hope in themselves. The first few days of the Festival went off without incident. However it wouldn't last for long as the Organization was stirring trouble in the capital city.  


==== Destiny’s Path ====
Security was so focused on the Festival that protests broke out in [[Markosian City]]. The Organization had convince the once thankful immigrants that the laboring would just get harder. Commerce and trade were to become more strictly regulated and higher taxes would have to be paid. For days the protesters stood outside the gates of the [[Orian Manor|Governor's Mansion]]. A handful traveled to Kar Alabrek and dared to protest outside the walls of [[Alabrek Castle]], the Festival was quickly ended and the Dlarit Security Force was deployed to quell the demonstrators. The protestors went to far though when they stole the Executive Director's corporate shuttle and crashed it into Orian Manor. Luckily the Governor survived, though badly injured, thanks to the quick actions of his Security Force. Shortly after the protests turned into riots. Markosian City was plunged into complete chaos, fires burned and crime was endless.  [[Dlarit Corporation Ranks and Titles|Executive Director]] Cyrin had no choice and finally gave the order to isolate the city and enact martial law. Using one of the planetary shield generators, the city was sealed off from the rest of the world. Jeric Cyrin then order the capital be returned to [[Kar Alabrek]] and until order was restored the Executive Director would have immediate control over the planet’s government.


However, Jeric still felt like there was more he could learn outside of the brotherhood. Even after all his achievements over the past 7 months, Jeric still didn’t have what it took to be a future Dark Lord. He paid one more visit to the Shadow Academy trying to find some answers by reviewing his pervious studies of the [[starwars:Sith Empire|Sith Empire]]. It was possible that the old Sith planets of Korriban and Ziost could still hold secrets unknown to the brotherhood. [[Image:vallyofsithlords.jpg|175px|right|thumb|Vally of the Dark Lords]]His summit quickly learn he was after his own power and advise him to stop studying the ancient ways of the Sith. To defy the brotherhood and its understanding of the dark side, Jeric quickly left the Kr’Tal System. Jeric traveled directly to [[starwars:Korriban|Korriban]] and spent weeks searching the [[starwars:Valley of the Dark Lords|Valley of the Dark Lords]] finding various Sith Artifacts. Most were worth nothing to Jeric since they didn’t possess the answers that he wished for. However he did found an ancient crystal in one of the newer tombs and kept it to use once he was able to construct a lightsaber. During his last day on Korriban he attempted to make contact and seek advise from the sprit of [[starwars:Ajunta Pall|Ajunta Pall]]. What Jeric hadn’t realized at first was Pall‘s sprit had been freed almost 4,000 years ago. The next morning, after a fruitless four weeks on Korriban, Jeric left the sith home world and headed to Ziost, hoping to find true understanding of the dark side there.
It was around this time when the Brotherhood learned that War was right on the horizon. [[New Tython]], base of operations for [[Odan-Urr]], was to be invaded and the Jedi scum wiped out by the years end. Despite everything else it was now up to Executive Director Cyrin to lead the Dark Jedi of Marka Ragnos and Soldiers of the [[Dlarit Security Force|DSF]] in the fast approaching crusade against the Jedi.


When Jeric enter the atmosphere of [[starwars:Ziost|Ziost]] he could feel the dark side from the [[starwars:Sith Citadel|Sith Citadel]] growing and knew he would find his answers from deep inside it. Jeric searched through the vast building for days, finding old scrolls, that he would read before continuing his search. He followed the dark side to its strongest point in the Citadel, and by what he had learn it was the Chamber of the Sith Council. Upon entering the Chamber Jeric noticed a elegantly crafted stone pillar in the center of the room, with a small crystal lined pyramid on top. Jeric sensed the pyramid was protect by a powerful field of dark side energy, he tried to pierce the field with his own energy, but with no luck. He knew there had to be some way of destroying the field and returned to exploring the Citadel.
==== Invasion of New Tython ====


Directly below the Chamber he discovered a private archive filled with numerous Artifacts and scrolls. As he read through the almost decayed scrolls he discovered the small pyramid was in fact a [[starwars:Sith holocron|Sith holocron]]. [[image:PlagueisHolocron.jpg|thumb|left|150px]]He also found out that the Seal protecting it could only be broken by the Sith amulet hidden in a secret compartment on the Dark Lord‘s throne. He made his way back up to the Chamber, it was easy to determined which one was the Dark Lord‘s throne. After a goods 5 minutes he found a switch which opened the compartment. Inside sat a dusty ruby crystal amulet, he grab the amulet and pointed it towards the pillar. He focused his dark side energy into the amulet, creating a beam shattering the seal that surrounded the precious sith artifact. Jeric place his hands onto the holocron and focused his energy into it until it gave off a flash of light. Seconds later the image of an ancient cloaked Sith Lord appeared before Jeric. After spending hours studying from the holocron, and meditating on its lessons Jeric exited the Citadel without the holocron to once again return to the Brotherhood with a new view of the dark side.
As the days drew closer to war, preparations became more intense. The [[Dlarit Security Force]] was busy mobilizing their troops and the fleet. The dark jedi of Marka Ragnos were training harder than Jeric had ever seen. This war was unlike the others, the Jedi posed the biggest threat to the Brotherhood in many years.


===== The Holocron =====
Just hours aways from war the forces of Naga Sadow converged on [[Sepros]]. The disciples gathered inside [[New Sadow Palace|Sadow Palace]] waiting to hear from the Dark Lord of the Sith himself. As the last dark jedi trickled into the war room the hologram of Darth Ashen appeared. Speaking more as a Son of Sadow rather than the Grand Master, the words motivated the crowd. Even [[Overlord (Naga Sadow)|Overlord]] [[Astronicus Aurelius Sadow|Astronicus Sadow]], who stood at the front of his clan was moved by the Grand Master’s words.


''Greetings follower of the dark side, my identity is not of importance to you, for all you need to know is I am Dark Lord of the Sith.''
Following a short briefing from Consul [[Tsainetomo Keibatsu Sadow|Tsainetomo Sadow]] the warriors of Naga Sadow scattered finding their shuttle assignments. Jeric stood at the base of Lord Ragnos’s statue handing out assignments to the numerous dark jedi that came seeking orders from their Quaestor. When the word finally came, Jeric himself was on one of the many shuttles departing for the fleet. He was attached to one of the D-SOG Units heading for the [[starwars:Republic-class_Star_Destroyer|''Republic''-class Star Destroyer]] [[RSD Final Way|''Final Way'']]. While en route to the Brotherhood’s Rendezvous Point the leaders of Naga Sadow were given an updated briefing. Jeric learned that [[Trevarus Caerick]], Overlord of Marka Ragnos, would be on the battlefield. Some of the more senior members of the house felt threatened or worried about Caerick joining them on New Tython. Sith are greedy, they like to take all the glory, they want to spill as much blood as they can, regardless of who's blood it is. But in a time of war against a threat like the Jedi they tend to forget about individual glory or pride and work as brothers.  


''By allowing the dark side to consume you, you have bound yourself to serve it and its legacy forever. The power you seek, the ultimate offer of the dark side, can only be achieve if you crave it, covet it, and understand it. We seek power above all else this is the underlying philosophy of our order. But one is not to claim the true powers of the dark side with out understanding all its aspect, its orders, its limitations. The force will change you, it will transform you, but if you embrace this change you will know its full power. Those who accept the power of the dark side must also accept the challenge of holding on to it. There will always be others seeking power, seeking the power you learn here today, but only the strong will keep it, and the weak will blindly share it. This is our greatest strength and also our weakness. This is the reason why there can only be one Dark Lord, achieved through their god given destiny. The strong rule; the weak are meant to serve. This is the way it must be. Soon shall you be granted your destiny, serve the strong till they are meant to serve you.''
Finally arriving at the Rendezvous Point the entire might of the Brotherhood entered hyperspace for a mere two minutes. In a flash New Tython was in front of the fleet. Within seconds dropships began to pour out of the battle-cruisers heading for their designated LZs. Jeric and fellow Quaestor Mirado L’eonheart boarded their assault shuttle. Minutes later the side doors opened and D-SOG Commandos jumped out followed by two Dark Jedi. Jeric noticed Tsainetomo and Marcon exiting a MAAT shadowing the Clan Overlord. The other disciples of Sadow scattered out into the open fields heading towards the nearby Harakoan Tribes. From the woodline a legion of the natives emerged and opened fire on the Sadowans.  


''Destroy this holocron to keep its secrets to yourself, and you will find power. Keep it and pass it on to your heirs, and you will gain nothing. My chains are now broken, the force shall set me free!''
==== Decimation of War ====


==== A New Darkness ====
Deflecting serval blaster bolts Jeric moved towards the three powerful Dark Jedi. He suggested that a forward operating base be establish. Macron agreed and Astronicus gave the order for a prefabricated base to be delivered. Jeric noticed that the Jedi had finally arrived weaving in and out of the natives that were advancing on their position. However the Jedi’s were not alone, Mandalorians bearing the marking of Clan Ordo could be seen. Like a maelstrom the Disciples of Sadow clashed with their enemies. Flashes of blue, green, red, silver and yellow danced across the field. Bodies began to fall, most were natives, some where jedi, some mando and even fewer were dark jedi. Now more than ever the thirst for blood and the rage of war could be felt by all of Sadow.


Jeric returned to the Brotherhood knowing that his masters would now look down on him for seeking his own powers. The Dark Jedi of Taldryan where those who would steal his power should they ever find out what he had learn. The Brotherhood was on the verge of liberating Antei and Jeric needed a fresh start to use what he had learned. He choose to follow an old friend, [[Taigikori Aybara]], to [[Clan Arcona]] and serve under his leadership in [[House Qel-Droma]]. [[Image:Carc-logo.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Clan Arcona’s logo]]Once on board Qel-Droma’s Flagship Jeric went to visit his old friend who was very please to be serving with him again. Only weeks away from returning to Antei, the Journeymen and Equites of Qel-Droma didn’t stop working and took every opportunity to train. During a few combat exercises, Jeric proved to be even more promising than his new masters originally thought. His summit decided it was time for Jeric to undergo his Trials of Knighthood.
[[File:GreatjediwarXmandos.png|thumb|175px|left|The Mandalorians of Clan Ordo battle the Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]After the initial wave was defeated the forces of Naga Sadow began to establish a defensive line. The prefabricated based had finally arrived, the inside of the Command Center quickly became a chaotic flow of communication. The Consul order both Jeric and Mirado out into the battlefield to lead their forces. Jeric worked his way towards the forward defense lines were many Journeymen from Marka Ragnos and hundreds of soldiers were holding the enemy at bay. Jeric final made it to OP Ragnos. The D-SOG Officer in charge informed Jeric of the situation. The Mandalorians and Jedi were causing more of an issued than originally expected. There were a number of casualties already and only a battalion of soldiers and a handful of journeymen remained.  


When the Great Clans of the Brotherhood arrived at Antei they weren’t prepared to fight a different [[Ninth Great Jedi War|war]]. The Vong where all killed by a rouge Jedi Master and his army of battle droids. But this wasn’t going to stop the Brotherhood from re-claiming their homeworld. Within the first few hours of the conflict Jeric, now a full Dark Jedi Knight, was sent down to the battlefield to accompany a unit of the [[Army of the Iron Throne|Grand Master’s Army]]. Jeric got his first chance to test his new skills when he encounter a fellow Knight of the Brotherhood who had been turned. Jeric was easily able to slay the traitor with his mastery of [[Makashi]]. It would be a long hard war, but finally after many weeks of constant battling the Brotherhood prevailed, but not with out many losses including that of the Grand Master. In the weeks that followed a new Grand Master was appointed and the Brotherhood began the process of cleaning up.
The battlefield was complete pandemonium, but among it he saw the twin silver blades of Manji dancing about. From the wood line he could see at least a dozen Jedi and many more Mandalorians advancing on his forces. Jeric order his Commander to find Araxi and Kano, he was gonna need all the help he could get to hold this point. It was about time he lead from the front, activating his saber and leaping over the barricades, Jeric charged forward. The Sith danced among the mayhem deflecting blaster bolts and striking down any natives that came within range. Fighting side by side with two younger journeymen was right were Jeric wanted to be. Seconds later an explosion thru Jeric to his back. He looked over and saw the two younger dark jedi lifeless on the ground.  


Clan Arcona had returned to their home system of [[Dajorra]] with Qel-Droma’s new Quaestor, [[Legorii Kryotek]], leading his fellow brothers to [[Arconae Primus]] so they may rebuild what they had lost. Even though Jeric was a Knight, he continued to grow each day. Jeric was even granted the opportunity to return as an assistant to the Brotherhood’s Herald which he wholeheartedly took.  
Recovering, the Sith noticed two Mandalorians and a Jedi. One of the Mandalorians was missing his jetpack’s missile. The Jedi noticed Jeric getting up and rushed towards him, however the Sith did not intend to play games. With a quick motion Jeric unleashed a blast of force energy right at the charging Jedi. The blast picked the Jedi off his feet and threw him back towards the two mandalorians. One of the mandalorians was caught by the blast and thrown off his feet the other launched himself into the air and began firing at Jeric. The Sith easily blocked and deflected each bolt before sensing the Jedi charging at him. Jeric timed it perfectly deflecting one of the mandalorians bolts right into the ground making a cloud of dust. Inside the dust red and green danced as Jeric and the Jedi dueled. The Mandalorian landed next to his partner and the two began moving towards the cloud. As it began to settle the two could only see one blade, a crimson blade. They opened fire, Jeric twirled and twisted his blade blocking the shots. One made it thru and struck Jeric in the leg but he paid it no mind. Again one of the Mandalorians leapt into the air, the one on the ground lit his flamethrower causing Jeric to roll backwards. As the Sith came back to his feet the jetpack missile from the airborne Mandalorians exploded in the air no less than a meter from his face. The sounds of the battlefield faded, everything was suddenly dark. The Sith leader of House Marka Ragnos laid motionless in the mud.  


Jeric has now set many goals for himself and looks for every opportunity to prove himself worthy in the eyes of his masters. Jeric knows that his rise to power will come one day though, for it is his destiny through the pure will of the dark side of the force.
==== Ruins of Battle ====


== Character Information ==
The silence slowly turned into ringing and the ringing slowly brought the sounds of the battlefield back. Jeric could hear the distance screams and blaster shots slowly getting louder. Jeric tried opening his eyes and couldn’t at first. With effort he finally opened his eyes and felt noting but pain, tremendous pain. Above all else, he still saw nothing but blurry darkness. Jeric had been blinded by that Mandalorian, he could only assume his face was torn up by the blast as well. The Sith slowly sat up and felt around for any other injuries.


=== Appearance ===
Macron found Jeric on the battlefield and administered some medicine that the Sith Madman had created years ago. The pain form his injuries quickly subsided and although he still couldn't see he could at least concentrate. Jeric found Roxas on the West Flank and almost  got decapitated by the Mandalorian turn Dark Jedi. The two Sadowans fought back to back striking down anything that broke thru the wall of blaster fire being created by the Regulators. The enemy lines were beginning to get overwhelmed by the Dark Jedi forces. The pincer maneuver that Senior Director Sonjie suggested was working and the forces of Odan-Urr were slowly thinning.


[[Image:JericCyrin.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Full Body View of Jeric]]Standing almost two meters tall and weighing roughly 82 kilograms, Jeric is a fairly muscular yet lightweight individual for his stature. Jeric has a large zigzag looking scar running from his forehead to his cheek, which in fact is a birth mark. Jeric carries himself very properly due to his extensive time serving in the military. He has medium length dark brown hair with eerie silver eyes. For his attire Jeric is most often seen wearing a semi-traditional dark Jedi robe made up of a one sleeve red tunic, a dark gray over tunic without sleeves, a red obi, a black leather utility belt, black trousers and silver plated red leather boots. When he wishes to be one with the shadows he wears a black with red trim hooded cloak over his robe. Most of the time Jeric is seen carrying his lightsaber and his silver-plated Bryar pistol, in a leg holster, concealed under his over tunic. When Jeric is in full armor he has two antique DC-15s side arm blasters in leg holsters to accompany his saber that is concealed under his right shoulder pauldron.
Jeric reached out with the force and sensed a Jedi charging him, the Sith raised his lightsaber to meet the sky colored blade of the Jedi. The Jedi immediately opened into a barrage of high speed attacks. Jeric could sense it was a female and was more than just a mere padawan. A Knight maybe, she was clearly well trained in ataru and if it weren’t Jeric’s mastery of vapaad he would have been easily overwhelmed. The female Jedi knight didn’t last long against the blinded sith, tiring herself out her rapid attacks slowed allowing Jeric to unleash a brutal combination. The Jedi’s body fell limp in the mud without a head. Jeric raised his head to the sky as it continued to pour down on the battlefield as if crying for the countless deaths. Hours later the conflict finally ended. The Brotherhood successfully broke thru and captured the Jedi Temple, burning it to the ground. Jeric was transported back to the [[RSD Final Way|''Final Way'']] to receive treatment for his extensive injuries.


=== Personality ===
==== Aftermath in Turmoil ====


Intelligent, Charismatic, and shy are the perfect words to describe Jeric. He tends to keep to himself a lot, but when he is force out into public, he will stand out among most dark Jedi. Jeric is very tense, always watching his back just in case. This is a trait he picked up during his military career and especially after seeking his own knowledge of the Dark Side. Jeric is also very short tempered and in his rage he will not hesitate to kill even the ones he loves. But over the years he has learn many techniques to keep his anger in line. Jeric will always use logic to solve his problems and can be quite enjoyable to be around once you get to know him. Jeric prides himself on never giving up and one day this pride issue could be the death of him.  
In the aftermath of the war Naga Sadow returned to its home in the [[Orian System]]. Changes were on the horizon and disorder was sure to follow. The injured Quaestor of Marka Ragnos was rarely seen by the public eye. It wasn’t just his body that was injured it was his pride. Locked inside his private chambers at the [[Mucenic#Temple of Ragnos|Temple of Ragnos]] Jeric refused to see the light of day, not that he could anyways. Those privilege enough to even enter the Quaestor’s office  would only see the Sith’s shadowy figure. Towards the end of the year Jeric stopped allowing entrance into his chambers. The summit began to notice the disruption Jeric’s lack of presence caused and in early [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|36 ABY]] agree to relieve him as Quaestor. [[Kalia Pepoi]], who had replaced Teu as Clan Rollmaster, was charged with delivering the message to the phantom Quaestor. Upon arriving on [[Mucenic]], Kalia was told that no one had seen or heard from Jeric in at least three weeks now. Searching the Grand Hall she found it empty. Next she tried the Meditation Room and even the Quaestor’s personal chambers but found nothing. Jeric had disappeared into the shadows. The summit had no choice but to appoint Kalia as the new Quaestor of Marka Ragnos.  


=== Possessions ===
Jeric had to find new ambition in his chaotic life. He refused to be seen by his fellow brothers and sisters until he could reclaim his pride and possible his appearance. Disappearing in the dead of night, Jeric had left Mucenic and withdrew from the Orian System. For weeks the Sith traveled aimlessly thru space, looking for answers. Stopping on random worlds for days at a time, Jeric killed cause he could and stole what he needed to survive. At some point Jeric ended up on his home world, hiding in the ruins of his family’s estate. For months he stayed secluded from the galaxy, a self-induced hermit. One day while meditating he remember a statement made by one of the gatekeepers of the [[starwars:Telos Holocron|holocron]] he found long ago. This [[starwars:Tritos Nal|gatekeeper]] spoke of a forgotten sith world and of the work he did on this world. Jeric left his self-imposed exile on [[starwars:Canti System|Canti]] and traveled to the Sith Worlds Region.


Jeric has a number of possession that he has acquired over the years. They include weapons, a Starfighter, armor, and a few sith artifacts. [[Image:SpectrumSithRed.gif|thumb|60px|right]]
==== Malicious Facade ====


===== Spectrum of Hate =====
[[File:JericCyrinFull.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Jeric with Sith Mask, Circa 36 AB ]]Jeric had only been on the frozen wasteland of [[starwars:Korriz|Korriz]] for a few hours. Ruins and ancient sith relics littered the planet’s surface. The Sith was being drawn towards the a mountain ridge where he could faintly see a large structure atop one of the mountains. The dark side was strongest at that point and Jeric had no doubt that was the workshop of Tritos Nal. Among many other relics, Jeric found an ancient mask worn by the [[starwars:Sith Warrior|warriors]] of the old [[starwars:Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|Sith Empire]]. It was a most convenient way to hide his scars and impose fear into his enemies.


The Spectrum of Hate is the name of the lightsaber Jeric received for being part of the new first clan of the brotherhood. After he choose to adopted this new lightsaber for his own Jeric dismantled it so that he could put his own saber crystal, the [[starwars:Heart of the Guardian|Heart of the Guardian]], into it. [[Image:ShadowReaper.jpg|thumb|100px|left]]
Once inside the workshop Jeric felt a presence torn between the dark side and the light. The Sith followed his senses until he entered the main chamber of Tritos Nal himself. Jeric had no time to take it all in, from behind him a human male about Jeric’s age lunged at him with a poorly forged Sith Sword. Jeric’s form was erratic due to his eyesight but his persistence and strength were overpowering. In the heat of battle the strange attacker struck the Holocron of Tritos Nal with his Sith Sword. In a flash of light the holocron exploded with energy and the Sith Sword turned to ash. Jeric was furious that the only means of knowledge from a master of sith magic had been destroyed. The human revealed that he knew the secrets of the holocron and would be willing to share them if Jeric spared him and showed him the true ways of the dark side. The Sith accepted [[Maelous Ascarend]]’s proposal but only if he proved his knowledge of sith magic. Maelous told his new Sith Master he could alter the sith mask using alchemy so Jeric could look thru the eye lens and see as if they were his own eyes. Weeks past and Maelous struggled to fulfill his promise but finally was able to perfect the mask. Jeric no longer had to rely on the force to sense his surroundings, he could see again.


===== Shadow Reaper =====


Before becoming a dark Jedi, Jeric was very well trained in the art of sword fighting. As a gift for graduating from the Junior Officers Indoctrination Program his father gave him a sword specially made just for him. Jeric is ever more skilled with his sword after mastering the fighting style Kartranin and almost perfecting Shyarn-Ado.
== Character Information ==


=== Appearance ===


===== Pistol Collection =====
Standing almost two meters tall and weighing roughly eighty kilograms, Jeric is a relatively muscular individual of his stature. Jeric walks tall with his shoulders back and his head held high. Jeric has medium length brown hair and before his injury had silver eyes. Jeric can typically be found wearing forbidding, yet exotic styled, armored robes. On formal occasional he may be seen wearing his military uniform to which he designed during is rule of the Reena Province. Jeric’s face was disfigured and the injuries he received on the battlefields of New Tython blinded him. Due to this, Jeric is almost never seen without an alchemically treated  Sith Mask he found on Korriz. Using the crystal matrix from a destroyed holocron to make the lens and infusing it with Sith Magic the mask allows Jeric to see as if through his own eyes.


Jeric has a collection of three pistols. While trying to find a new set of weapons upon joining the Imperial Remnant Jeric found a pair of antique [[starwars:DC-15s side arm blaster|DC-15s side arm blasters]]. Since then they are the only weapons Jeric chooses to use. When Jeric was awarded a special title in House Dinaari he was also given a silver-plated [[starwars:Bryar pistol|Bryar pistol]]. Jeric still favors his DC-15s side arms when in armor but will use his Bryar pistol as a backup to his lightsaber. [[image:NightFall.jpg|thumb|150px|right]]
=== Demeanor ===


===== Night Fall =====
Intelligent, persistent, blunt, cunning and yet tranquil are words best used to describe Jeric Cyrin. Same days he is more ruthless than collected and intelligence has been replace with pure rage in some cases. He still tends to be reserved, always hiding in the shadows, but is forced out into the light on occasion. Jeric is always alert but is able to keep his composer in tense situations. Jeric is known for his cunning methods and graceful actions in battle.


The Night Fall is Jeric’s personal TIE Defender which he acquired from House Dinaari upon leaving the Brotherhood for the first time. Currently the ‘’Night Fall’’ sits on the Hanger Racks of the [[BAC Shadow]].
=== Equipment ===


[[image:PhantomArmor.jpg|thumb|125px|left]]
==== Weapons ====
===== Phantom Armor =====


When the Imperial Remnant released the new Stormtrooper Mark II Armor Jeric pulled some strings to have a custom version of the armor made. His version includes a upgraded model of the Scout Trooper Visor, two leg holsters for his DC-15s Side Arms, and a temporary cloaking device.  
*Lightfoil: Used by Jeric when he was a Saber Rake in his younger years. Specially made for him by a reputable swordsmith on Canti, the lightfoil is plated in silver electrum and B'rknaa crystals. Though he hasn’t used it in many years the lightfoil is kept in Jeric’s chamber on displayed for everyone to see.


===== Sith Amulet =====
*Tapani Gentleman's Cane: The elegant Tapani Gentleman's Cane, available only to Lords of the Expanse. Concealed inside the shaft of the cane was an incredibly sharp blade.


Jeric choose to keep the Sith Amulet he found in the Sith Citadel on Ziost. Usually Jeric is wearing the amulet around his neck and if needed it can be used as a weapon by focusing the force into it producing a deadly beam of energy.  
*Modified [[starwars:Bryar Pistol|Bryar Pistol]]: During Jeric’s time in Taldyran he receive a specially made Bryar Pistol. Modified to increase the accuracy and range Jeric’s Bryar was a remarkable pistol. The charge function on the pistol was also enhanced thru Sith Alchemy. Jeric is almost never seen without his pistol.


== DJB Facts ==
*Punch Dagger: One of Jeric’s favorites before become a Dark Jedi was a Punch Dagger. Given to him while he was still in the military this weapon resembles a pair of knucklers however on impact with the target a three inch blade ejects from the center inflicting a puncture wound.  [[File:JericFirstSaber.jpg|thumb|50px|right|Proclaimer]]

Placed inside the Cyrin Family's vault it was destroyed when rebels burned down the Family Estate.

Character History

Early Life

Noble Heritage

The Cyrin Family Estate

Born and raised on the planet Canti in the early months of 7 ABY, Jeric Cyrin had a sophisticated and luxurious childhood. Years before Jeric’s birth his father, Mikel Cyrin, had capitalize on the discovery of Madilon and established a mining enterprise on Nyriaan where the valuable metal was found. The family’s new found wealth and influence gave Mikel a seat on the Privy Council and made the Cyrin’s a Ruling Family of House Reena. Shortly after Jeric’s mother was elected to represent Reena Province in the Tapani Grand Council. She served for eight long years until her retirement around 13 ABY.

At age six Jeric’s mother and various caretakers began to instruct him. Nobles of Tapani Society where know to be well educated, especially in House Reena. Jeric learned everything from math and astronomy to ethics and philosophy. Around age twelve Jeric’s father began to teach him how to one day take a seat on the Privy Council. He also taught Jeric the code of conduct that Tapani Lords were expected to act in accordance with. By age thirteen Jeric joined a subclass of noble youth know as the Saber Rakes. He became an expert duelist by the time he was only fifteen and was greatly respected by other Saber Rakes.

Conscription

In 24 ABY, Jeric was drafted into the Reena Defense Force. As per tradition, Nobles of the Reena Province were obligated to become officers in either the Army or Navy, upon reaching their seventeenth birthday. Only two years of active service was required before they could return to their life of royalty. Following his father’s footsteps Jeric entered the Royal Naval Academy of Reena. Within a year Jeric, now eighteen years of age, completed his officer’s training and was commissioned as a Lieutenant. During his training Jeric showed an uncanny ability to lead and strategize. He also had remarkable intuition and was able to make split second decisions in times of stress. Though he was not aware of this at the time this was all due to a rather high midi-chlorian count. Lieutenant Cyrin was assigned to one of Reena Navy’s four Marauder-class Corvette, the Horizon, as one of the many junior bridge officers. In the later months of 25 ABY, the Horizon and a few light escort vessels were scouting for asteroid fields rich in mineral deposits. After hours of searching the outskirts of the Caloria System, the Horizon and its escorts where ambushed by a small pirate force.

Naval HQ on House Reena's Throneworld

The attack dealt significant damage to the Horizon’s light escorts and an explosion on the bridge killed the Tac Officer. Without hesitation Jeric took over the tactical station and began to update the Commanding Officer on the ship’s shield strength and weapon status. Suddenly Jeric envisioned a tactical maneuver that would give the vessels an edge over the pirate force. Lieutenant Cyrin immediately told the CO to execute the maneuver he transmitted to the view screen. Just as he envisioned, the four Reena vessels positioned themselves and opened fire on the pirate forces severely damaging their main frigate and destroying one of the light vessels. The damaged frigate and its remaining escort retreated into hyperspace. Returning to the capital, Jeric received an advanced promotion to Lt. Commander and numerous commendations for his actions. He was appointed to the newly created position of Tactical Coordinator. Jeric was now responsible for planing Naval exercises and battle plans for the entire navy. He was even given his own office inside Naval Headquarters on Reena.

The Choice

Early into 26 ABY, Jeric was sent out on a mission with three of Reena’s capital ship. The mission was to quell a group of mercenaries that had been terrorizing the Tavitz System. After completing the mission, Jeric took a shuttle and a two fighter escort back to Reena ahead of the three Corvettes. About half way a Modified version of an CR90 Corvette dropped out of hyperspace, disabling Jeric’s shuttle and destroying it’s two escorts. It was still unclear what happen but Jeric was presumed killed and considered MIA by Reena Military Officials.

Jeric was uncertain how long he had been unconscious and where he was exactly. After concentrating he could faintly here the sound of ion-turbine engines and assumed he was on the corvette that had attacked his shuttle. Unknown to him the M/CRV Sirona was sailing through spaced heading towards the Antei System. Jeric’s eyes finally adjusted to his dimly lit cell and he realized a cloaked figure had been inside the small chamber all along. The figure stepped into a ray of light. Jeric began questioning the figure that stood in front of him. Instead of answering it waved its hand in a manner that told Jeric to be quite.

"We are the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi. We have come to offer you guidance, a path to unlock your hidden power. Learn the ways of the force, of the Dark Side. It is your choice, join us or die." ~ Knight Commander

Dark Neophyte

Jeric had been on Lyspair at the Shadow Academy for more than a week now. In his first few days Jeric endured many tests to determined his physical strength and comprehension of the force. During his initiation Jeric learn about the star chamber, basic philosophy of the Dark Side and how to develop his powers. He spent days on end studying the many ancient scrolls the Brotherhood had in its possession. After spending roughly a month at the academy Jeric completed his initial trials and was given the test of lore.

The Halls of the Shadow Academy

Jeric easily passed the test and was promptly assigned to the brotherhood’s most prestigious clan, Clan Taldryan. It wasn’t long before a shuttle arrive to take Jeric to Altur, home planet of Taldryan’s Obelisk House, Dinaari. Jeric settled into his new home on Altur almost immediately. It didn’t take long before he started catching the attention of his new masters. Spending hours studying ancient texts and was granted the level of Acolyte in a matter of days. Jeric had grown stronger as the months past, honing his combat skills and knowledge of the dark side.

Early into 27 ABY the brotherhood learned of an extra-galactic species, called the Yuuzhan Vong, that had invaded the galaxy. The Grand Master of the Brotherhood summoned the great clans to prepare for inevitable invasion. Not long after Taldryan’s forces arrived at Antei, Jeric began to have nightmares, visions, that his home world had been invaded as well. Jeric refused to stay and fight with the Brotherhood and left for the Reena Province.

Ruined Homecoming

It had been days since Jeric betrayed the brotherhood. He commandeering a TIE Defender from the hanger of the Dark Prophet II’' and escaped before Taldryan’s fleet entered the Shroud. After a few layovers Jeric was in eyesight of House Reena’s throneworld. He immediately transmitted his landing codes to Naval Headquarters but got denied, his codes were likely deactivated after he was declared MIA. He retransmitted this time with an authorization pin unique to each person to confirm identity if rescued or found. After landing, Jeric quickly changed out of the blacked robes he had been wearing and into his duty uniform. He then head directly for the Command Center and once inside he warned the Admiral that the sector was in danger of attack. Surprise overcame everyone inside the room, surprise more so that Jeric was alive then the impending threat.

A chain of events unraveled, the Admiral informed House Reena’s newly appointed High Lord, Jeric’s Father, who immediately contacted Tapani’s Prime Minister, who in turn actives emergency protocols. Each house’s military prepared for invasion and the leaders of each joined together in the War Room on Procopia to coordinated the defense of the Sector. Not even a day passed when the first attacks began in the Cadriaan Province. Jeric elected to coordinate the coming battle from the Horizon and was granted a long due promotion to Commander. It wasn’t long before the Vong spread throughout the rest of Tapani space. The invaders overpowered the Reena Navy and did significant damage to the fleet. Luckily, before they could do any major damage to the sector as a whole, Republic forces arrived and began pushing the invaders out of the sector.

In the aftermath of the battle, the damage was clear. The Reena Navy lost roughly seven ships, the Horizon lost it’s Captain and a number of crew. Jeric himself was injured, receiving a decent laceration on the left side of his face and a broken left hand. A few days later Jeric went to meet with his father. Mikel didn’t bother questioning where his son had been, he just requested that Jeric would stick around and offered him Captain of the Horizon.

For almost a year now Captain Jeric Cyrin had successful served as the Horizon’s Commanding Officer. A couple of months ago the Reena Navy had to fend off another small attack from the Vong but the Reserve Battlegroup, the Republic left behind, assisted in defeating them. Other than that Jeric’s time as Captain wasn’t much; a few escort missions, one or two skirmishes against pirates, and to much patrolling. It wasn’t long before Jeric began to think about returning to the Brotherhood. His new found lust for power and desire to further his knowledge of the dark side burned away at him. In the final days of 27 ABY, the temptation of the dark side became to much for Jeric. He visited his father on Reena, to personally submit his letter of resignation. Jeric told his father that he needed to leave and unfortunately couldn’t explain why. Mikel wished him good luck and told him to take the family’s personal shuttle, a Theta-Class T-2c, called Aurora. Waiting for Jeric on the landing platform was the shuttle’s pilot, a beautiful naval Lieutenant named Vikaa Syndulla.

A Tyro Returns

A young Jeric, regal attire, Circa 28 ABY

Jeric returned to the Kr'Tal System in the beginning of 28 ABY, only to learn that much had changed. The Vong successfully attacked the heart of the Brotherhood, Antei, just as the Gand Master foresaw. They managed to overpower the Great Clans and forced the Dark Council to evacuate the planet. When Jeric arrived back on Altur he was greeted by the new Quaestor of Dinaari, Vladet Xavier. In a short amount of time, Jeric had distinguished himself and was chosen to be the next Dominus Sicarius: the Consul’s personal protector and master assassin. He found it a great honor and it wasn’t long before Jeric was elevated to Guardian of the Dark Path.

In mid 28 ABY Jeric approached the Headmaster and requested he become an instructor at the Shadow Academy. Jeric had proved to be more than knowledgeable in galactic history which was the slot the Headmaster wished to fill. Jeric’s summit began to noticed how quickly he had developed, growing in every way possible. They sensed that Jeric had the potential to be a great leader, placing him into the position of Rollmaster temporarily so he could hone his skills. Jeric impressed his masters, handling the duties of House Envoy with ease. Towards the end of the year the summit advance Jeric to the next level, Jedi Hunter.

In early 29 ABY, Jeric saw that the Emissary of the Dark Council was looking for assistants, he quickly applied and shortly after was accepted for the role. As a noble of Tapani society his diplomatic skills where more developed compared to most. About five months into Jeric’s first term as Magistrate he was sent on his first diplomatic mission. He was going to be negotiating use of the Citadel Station for whenever the brotherhood traveled along the Hydian Way. Within minutes after arriving on Telos, Jeric immediately felt a strong pull from the Dark Side. Jeric shook it off so he could completed his mission. Once negotiations were done however, the young dark jedi went in search for the power he sensed. Even after all his achievements and growth since returning, this power made Jeric feel like the brotherhood was holding him back.

Forbidden Wisdom

Jeric had a few days to waste before he needed to report back to the Herald and so after a few hours of surveying the planet Lieutenant Syndulla found what look like an abandon temple in the northern polar region. This had to be the source of the energy, the pull of the dark side was strongest there. Lieutenant Syndulla landed the shuttle near a few of the structures and the two venture out into the snow. The entrance was a bit hard to find but Jeric eventually uncovered the large blast doors. The two searched thru the temple learning it was completely self-sufficient and was still running off an ancient form of power. Vikaa located a hanger that could house the shuttle during their stay and left Jeric to explore on his own. Jeric went thru many rooms finding food, supplies, and many Sith related artifacts. Unfortunately, none of them emanated the power he still sensed.

Finally he came to an opening that lead down into the underbelly of the temple. After venturing down a long staircase Jeric came to a stone door that looked different from the rest. Strange marks and symbols covered the door. With some effort and help from the force Jeric pushed the door open. He was amazed at what he found, a Sith Holocron unlike anything he had ever read about. Jeric took the holocron and made his way to a meditation chamber he found earlier, locking the doors behind him. Vikaa had a feeling they were going to be here way longer than a few days so she began unpacking the shuttle. As the days came and went she began to make the temple more of a permeant residence. Jeric had not come out of that chamber since he locked himself in. He would need to eat, drink, even sleep eventually Vikaa thought. Still the weeks went by and no sign of life came from the chamber. She knew he was still in there and knew he was still alive, she could see him sitting, eyes glued to the glowing holograms emitted by the thing he found.

What seemed like only a few days had been months spent inside the chamber. So many Dark Lords had contributed their teachings of the dark side or gave testimonials about the history and plight of the Sith. It was no surprise Jeric become lost inside the repository of lore and wisdom. When Jeric’s eyes open, as the last gatekeeper faded away, he was amazed to be alive still. His connection to the force and meditative state acted as a form of hibernation he assumed. His mind might have survived not eating, but his body was weakened tremendously. He could hardly lift himself up, let only stand. When Vikaa noticed Jeric moving she ran over to help. It took a few days but she finally nursed Jeric back to health. It had been six months since they arrived on Telos, it was time to go back to the Brotherhood.

Brotherhood’s Servant

Second Coming

Jeric returned in the beginning of 30 ABY only to find his former masters in Clan Taldyran not pleased with his disloyal ways. He was consider an exile and was stripped of all positions he held within the Clan. This didn’t bother him though, with his new knowledge it wouldn’t be long before he would regain everything and so he decided to start anew. An acquaintance of Jeric, Taigikori Aybara, heard he had left Taldyran and offered him refuge in the Shadow Clan. Jeric was pleased to still have a friend and joined Clan Arcona under Taigikori’s leadership. Jeric didn’t get much time to adjust or settle in, for the Brotherhood was on the verge of liberating Antei. As the months passed training became heavily paced and tougher than anything Jeric had experienced. He show himself to be an outstanding duelist and practitioner of the force. Jeric was even asked to return to his former position as Magistrate of the Herald. Taigikori decided Jeric was more than ready to begin his Trails of Knighthood. Jeric proved Taigikori right, successfully completing the trials in less time than expected. The Tapani Noble was knighted as a true Dark Jedi of the Brotherhood, only days before going to war.

Unification

Unified by their thirst for vengeance and desire to take back their home world the Great Clans returned to Antei under the leadership of Darth Sarin. However they weren’t prepared to fight a different enemy. Killed off by an unknown plague, the Vong were devastated and in their place an army of droids led by a Jedi crusader had taken their place. This wasn’t going to stop the Brotherhood from taking back Antei. Brutal fighting erupted the moment the armies of the brotherhood landed. Dark Jedi were being captured left and right, by the Jedi now know as Omancor Crask. He was testing their faith in the dark side, attempting to draw more to his cause.

Jeric finally got his first taste of true battle when he was called to accompany a detachment with the Army of the Iron Throne. Almost a hundred battle droids pounded the dark jedi and his detachment of 16 shock troopers. Thankfully a platoon of Arcona soldier showed up minutes later to back up Jeric. As the last of the battle droids where being destroyed Jeric was blind sided by a fellow clan member who had been turned. The traitor must have been a fellow Journeyman, a low-level one, Jeric managed to killed him with ease.

The battle ensued for days but finally ended in a struggle that sent shockwaves across all the brotherhood. Crask had surrendered and was brought before Grand Master Sarin. The old man deceived the Dark Lord, ripping a lightsaber from his detained apprentice’s body. A raging duel took place above the skies of Antei and ended in a fiery crash on the surface. The bodies of both Crask and Darth Sairn where found among the fiery ruins of the BAC Exodus. Dark Prophet Muz Ashen was named Sairn’s successor and became the new Dark Lord of the Sith.

The forces of Arcona returned to Dajorra after being victorious on the battlefields of Antei. The victory was short lived though as trouble stirred in the darkness. For many months Arcona had taken advantage of the deals made with the Hutt Cartels and it was coming back to hunt them. Jeric didn’t stick around long enough to see the effects this would have on the Shadow Clan. Sometime in 31 ABY he was asked to serve as Aedile of Dorimad Sol alongside a fellow Magistrate to the Herald, Robin Hawk.

Spoils of War

Jeric had finally felt as if he had found his true calling within the Brotherhood. Scholae Palatinae, the Royal Clan, was known for its direct ties with the Emperor’s Guards and its long imperial history. Apart from that, Dorimad Sol, the house in which Jeric now proudly served as De-facto Head of State, was consider the military might of the Royal Clan. As Aedile Jeric had the distinct privilege of being immediately responsible for the Caina Defense Force. Being both a Head of State and Military Leader was something Jeric knew all to well and it would eventually paid off.

Jeric ascended to the first level of Equites in late 31 ABY for his outstanding service to the Herald’s Office and his loyalty to the brotherhood during the Liberation of Antei. Not long after that Jeric was also awarded the brotherhood’s highest award of eminence, the Grand Cross of the Dark Side, for his superior leadership and development of the Caina Defense Force. Jeric was definitely not letting his superiors down, he was proving that his status as a Lord in the Tapani Society was becoming increasingly useful to the Brotherhood.

A few months into 32 ABY, the Grand Master called for the clans to unite once more. Research teams had discovered a new planet, Salas V, for the Brotherhood to conquer. However the planet was overrun by Killiks and they proved to much for the Armed Forces of the Iron Throne. Sensing the need for a common goal between the Clans and Houses, Grand Master Ashen called for a Rite of Supremacy. For which ever Clan proved their might would win the rights to the planet. During the battle the Dark Jedi of the Brotherhood became unsatisfied with just killing the Killiks and turned on each other as they sought to prove their own mastery of battle. Clan Scholae Palatinae was devastated during the Vendetta, many Dark Jedi were killed or unaccounted for.

Jeric Cyrin, Ceremonial Armor, Circa 32 ABY

In the months following the Rite of Supremacy, the Clan’s forces returned to the Cocytus System in the hopes of rebuilding. Much work was done to improve the military forces of Dorimad Sol. Even at the individual level the Dark Jedi of Scholae Palatinae trained so that a lost like that would never happen again. Of those who were unaccounted during the sacking of Salas V was the Herald’s adjutant, a Krath by the name of Raven. Towards the end of the year, Jeric was announced as Raven’s successor by Shikyo Keibatsu and made Praetor.

Herald’s Deputy

With Jeric’s appointed as Praetor to the Herald, tension began to rise between Jeric and his Quaestor, Robin Hawk. Many began to believe she had become corrupted and power hungry. Jeric didn’t want to get involved and have his career dragged down with hers. He sent in his letter of resignation to the Clan Summit and left for Antei to focus solely on his duties as Praetor. He made his new home in the underground levels of the Dark Hall.

Towards the middle of 32 ABY, Shikyo Keibatsu was task by the Lion of Tarthos himself to head into the unknown regions. Whatever the mission was, it caused the Herald to disappear abruptly leaving Jeric in charge of all duties of the office. Shikyo must have known that his new Praetor was more than capable of being the public face of the Brotherhood. Jeric took on the monumental task of running that Herald’s Office with easy. During the Herald’s absence Jeric continued to make deals with outside parties to preserve and protect the secrecy of the brotherhood. Almost three months after the Dark Council’s Emissary left, Jeric was out on business acting as a liaison between two of the clans. He over heard rumors of treachery against the Iron Throne and feared some of the clans would rise up to over throw the Dark Council.

Without hesitation Jeric presented the evidence and the details surrounding the rumors to the Grand Master. The Dark Lord told Jeric that hints of treason had been flying around the Dark Hall for weeks now and that the Chamber of Justice was already conducting an investigation. Jeric was thanked for the new details and order to return to his ambassadorial duties. Not even a week later Jeric’s shuttle was attacked while on the way back from the Jusadih System. Luckily Vikaa was able to maneuver and escape the attack. This just proved that Jeric struck a nerve with these traitors. The Dark Council’s chief military officer order a starfighter escort for Jeric’s shuttle and a protective squad from the Army of the Iron Throne to be issued. However, that didn’t stop the attacks. A couple of days later Jeric’s office was vandalized.

Enough was enough, Jeric requested to leave the brotherhood temporally to let the situation dissolve. With the Herald returning in less than a month, Jeric assured the Grand Master that the current staff could manage for the next few weeks. Darth Ashen, agreed to let Jeric leave and assured him the problem would be fixed soon. Jeric left for the one place he knew Vikaa and himself would be safe, the Tapani Sector.

Cyrin Dynasty

The Honorable, Lord Jeric Cyrin return to his home on Canti a month before the years end. His mother was surprised to see her son after almost six years and his father was pleased to have his only son return home. The first thing Jeric did after coming home was marry his pilot and companion over the past five years, Lieutenant Vikaa Syndulla. The Ceremony was small and as High Lord, Jeric’s father had the power to join the two in matrimony. A couple of weeks later, over dinner, Jeric’s father explained that the family’s mining operation on Nyriaan had began to show signs of corruption. He asked if Jeric could go and personally oversee the operation. Jeric did so and in only a few days time was able to weed out those on the management staff that had become corrupted. It had been two months since leaving the Brotherhood, Jeric finally received news that the Master at Arms initiated a purge wiping out those suspected of treason. More than four hundred dark jedi involved disappeared abruptly. This was good news, it meant Jeric could return to the Brotherhood. Unfortunately things took a turn for the worst. While on his way back from Nyriaan, Jeric got word that the High Lord of Reena, his father, had just been assassinated.

Devastated by the news Jeric initiated a full scale investigation. The Privy Council denied Lord Cyrin’s use of House Assets to conduct his investigation. Without even morning the death of Mikel Cyrin the Privy Council began voting for a new High Lord. Obviously there were some families that didn’t like the Cyrins and there was no doubt some members of the Privy Council were untrustworthy. He even suspected two of them in the plot to assassinate his father. Jeric had seen enough, it was time that he brought order back to House Reena. As a former naval Captain and thru use of the force Jeric persuaded the military to rally behind him. He then took the Reena Province by force, killing off those he suspected of being dishonest. Making himself Head of State wasn’t enough though, Jeric needed to ensure complete control over the House. Forcing martial law across the province, Jeric crowned himself Lord High Admiral of the Reena Province.

The Tapani Grand Council immediately questioned Jeric’s actions, but as a former representative his mother presented evidence to support what Jeric was doing. The Council agree to let it continued as long as it didn’t turn into an oppression and things stayed civil. For little less than a year Jeric made sure order returned to his House. A few conflicts arose between the other noble families and attacks happen on various mining industries. Nothing the military couldn’t handle under Jeric’s leadership. About seven months into 34 ABY Jeric felt as if his control over the province was successful in returning peace and justice. Jeric retracted martial law and left the new Privy Council in charge of electing a High Lord. For a third time Jeric made preparations to return to the Brotherhood.

A Worthy Pupil

Jeric's new apprentice
Jeric's new apprentice

In the beginning of 35 ABY, on his way back to Antei, Jeric thought about the attacks on his life and how they could endanger his new wife. Jeric wanted someone that he could mold and train to act as his personal bodyguard. Someone that could be a valuable asset not only to him but to the brotherhood. A warrior, someone strong, someone who was not afraid to kill or die. Jeric began to search through a database looking at former military personnel, convicts, and known mercenaries.

Jeric eventually found one potential candidate, a former nameless heavy trooper who had been drafted at a young age. It didn’t take long for Jeric to hack the holonet and access his full profile under the nomenclature CS-12097. Jeric checked his medical file and found his midi-chlorian count was just around 18,000, more than enough to be trained.The heavy trooper had later adopted the name Creon.

While making a layover in Coruscant, Jeric paid a visit to the soldier. He offered Creon a chance at untapped power and special training under the Iron Forces, he only asked that he pledge total allegiance to him. After a period of uncertainty, Creon accepted the offer at his new master’s shuttle only moments before it left for the Brotherhood.

Disciple of Sadow

Jeric returned in the later months of 35 ABY, only to find each of the great clans split into independent houses. Jeric figure it was probably due to the purge that happen earlier that year. The Herald was glad to see his prodigy return and as a gift for his dedicated loyalty to the office, Shikyo elevated Jeric to the second tier of Equites. In the weeks following his return Jeric and his new apprentice found a home in the Heirs to the Empire, House Naga Sadow. They were pleased that Jeric brought fresh blood to them along with himself. It didn’t take long for Jeric to settle into Naga Sadow, he befriended the Aedile, Fremoc Pepoi and was asked to be the Pepoi Family’s personal armorer. The same could not be said for his apprentice though. It seem as if Creon was lost or maybe overwhelm by all the presence of the Dark Side that now surrounded him. Jeric had noticed that over the course of a few weeks his apprentice’s performance and interactions with the other Dark Jedi were unfavorable. Jeric tasked out his apprentice to go on mission with the Regulator’s to see if that would get his motivation up.

In the beginning of 36 ABY Fremoc was appointed as the Grand Master’s Enforcer and subsequently Commander of the Royal Guard. It didn’t take him long to approach Jeric and recommend he be initiated into the Royal Guard. Trusting his friend’s wisdom Jeric did so and became one of few Elite Dark Jedi that have the privilege of protecting members of the Dark Council. Even more opportunities presented themselves in the coming weeks, allowing Jeric to quickly establish his name in Naga Sadow. A few weeks had passed and Jeric’s first taste of combat since returning presented itself. House Tarentum had requested help in dealing with a rakghoul plague that had infested their system. Naga Sadow acknowledged their need and saw itself working alongside a ghost from Jeric’s past, House Taldyran.

Burden of Aiding

Jeric Cyrin, Lord High Admiral Uniform, Circa 35 ABY

A few days into the joint operation, Jeric and his apprentice were asked to deal with the plague on Yridia IV by providing medical supply to local villages. As a Senior Commander within D-SOG Jeric was assigned a detachment of Commandos for his mission. After arriving at the Messina Estate and meeting with its owner, a former Headmaster, the two Dark Jedi and their detachment made their way down to the villages in the valley below. After providing aid to a number of people, Creon suggested that he take a few commandos and begin helping the village on the other side of the river. Jeric was hesitant, his apprentice still being so new to the dark side. Even with three commandos at his side a handful of the rakghoul mutants would pose a threat. Jeric eventually let his apprentice do as he wished. However, it didn’t take long before Jeric sensed Creon was in danger. Leaving his commandos to provide aid to the rest of the village, Jeric went to the other side of the river. Backed into a corner Jeric found his apprentice with only one commando living, taking cover behind some rubble. Almost a dozen rakghoul where clawing at the two. Catching the rakghoul’s attention Jeric concentrated his energy and released a powerful blast of the force just as the first one tried to jump him. Crushing their bones and sending them flying into the surrounding rubble Jeric wiped them all out in less than a second.

The two Dark Jedi and their commandos finished up their mission and returned to the Immolator that was in orbit around Yridia IV. Days later, before Jeric could even see his second mission, the joint operation was finished. Either all the rakghoul were killed or they all disappeared, Jeric was unsure what truly happen. Naga Sadow’s forces return to the Orian System and began to retrofit for their next battle. Jeric continued to spar with his apprentice but saw a drop in his motivation again. Having to be saved must have put a damper on his strong Zabrak ego. Two months later Jeric was called back to Antei by the Emissary of the Dark Council. The Herald was leaving on a diplomatic trip and Jeric would yet again need to return to the underground levels of the Dark Hall. He left a long list of assignments for Creon to completed in his absences and asked Rollmaster Teu Pepoi to watch over him.

Vanished Potential

Several months had past since Jeric returned to Antei, the new year was right around the corner. The Herald came and went just as he always did leaving his Praetor to deal with the daily bureaucracy of the office. Jeric was lucky enough to see the construction of a new colosseum specifically for the upcoming independence games. He could only hope that the Dark Council’s Emissary would return from his latest mission in time for Jeric to take part. In the final month of 35 ABY Jeric’s Magistrate, Ekeia Iclo, was briefing the Emissary’s Deputy on the past months diplomatic endeavors between the Dark Houses and outside parties. Apparently an alliance between Naga Sadow and Jeric’s original home, Taldryan, was in the works. Ekeia suggested that the Herald’s office keep a close eye on the possible alliance. No sooner did the conversation between his magistrate end did a call from Sepros get patched thru to Jeric’s office. According to Naga Sadow’s Rollmaster Jeric’s apprentice, Creon, had gone missing. Disturbing was this information, Jeric left Antei immediately bound for Sepros. After arriving on the throne world of Naga Sadow Jeric attended a quick meeting of the Royal Guard before speaking with Teu regarding his apprentice. According to her, Creon stopped showing up to training like he regular did. A D-SOG Solider claimed to have last seen Creon almost two weeks ago. Jeric immediately departed for Tarthos to investigate. On his way there he was contacted by Regulator’s Sergeant, Mirado L’eonheart, who told him about a criminal gang who had been kidnapping people with ties to the Dlarit Corporation. While visiting his apprentice’s quarters in the Black Sector of Markosian City, Jeric saw a vision of Creon defecting to the Jedi of Clan Odan-Urr after struggling with the criminal gang that Sergeant L’eonheart told him about, the Lazarus Stars. After discussing the situation with Mirado the two dark jedi realized that apprehending Creon would be a daunting task that could lead to war. Jeric was disappointed in Creon and vowed to kill him should they ever meet again. The apprentice had untapped capabilities, but he was a lost cause now. Jeric returned to Antei less than three weeks before the opening ceremonies of the independence games.

Corporate Pawn

Various Hilt of Marques

With the Celebration of the Exodus came the rebirth of Naga Sadow as a Clan of the Brotherhood. Jeric distinguished himself during the games earning five seals and making Naga Sadow’s leadership proud. After the games ended Jeric left for the Orian System. Once Jeric arrive within Naga Sadow’s Domain he received a transmission from former Obelisk Sergeant and now Executive Director Mirado Pepoi L'eonheart. The transmission was urgent so Jeric headed straight for Aeotheran. Dropping out of hyperspace Jeric docked with the Marakith Skyhook and proceeded to find the Knight that had summon him. Mirado explained to his senior that the Dlarit Corporation needed to grow and improve it’s economy. House Shar Dakhan was created for the purpose of finding new sources of revenue and acquire supplies for the Corporation. As an Executive Director, Mirado was given control over certain assets and subsidiaries of the Corporation. After explaining all this to Jeric, Mirado set a small wooden box on his desk and slid it forward. A small plaque was forged into the lid, the letters plated in electrum spelled out Tapani Noble’s name. When Jeric opened it, three objects rested within the velvet lining: a scroll, a ring, and a lightsaber hilt. Jeric was told that before him was a letter of marque and the items that show his authority as a privateer for the Dlarit Corporation. After explaining the jurisdiction of his new position Mirado wasted little time in giving Jeric orders for his first mission.

One of the Corporation’s plans was to secretly cut off supply to nearby star systems. In turn they would look to the Corporation for aid, thus growing Naga Sadow’s domain. Mirado’s first mission for Jeric was to intercept and raid a supply convoy from the Organization causing the neighboring Stereghat System to seek support from Naga Sadow instead of its current enemy. Intel had been received from an unidentified source that one of these Supply Convoys would run right along the border of the Orian and Stereghat Systems. Preparing a crew, Jeric set out on the VAC Despot with Macron Sadow and Jade Sadow beside him and the support of another Privateer, Masika Oshairana, aboard the VAC Turmoil. Things took a turn for the worst during the trip however. Jeric received a highly encoded transmission from his former senior aide on Reena, Niko Sipes. It was this transmission that would change the course of Jeric’s future in the Brotherhood....forever.

A New Darkness

Chaotic Truth


"My Lord, I regret to inform you that Civil War has broken out within the Reena Province, your homeworld and a few others have already been lost to the rebels. Your estate was burned to the ground, I am sorry but your wife and mother where unable to make it out in time. The Great Council of Tapani has made the decision to abolish House Reena and release it from the Expanse. The Ruling Families of Reena have lost all rights, royalties, and assets. I am sorry."
―Transmission from Niko to Jeric
The Message Jeric Received

Jeric had just lost everything that made him who he was; his title of nobility, his riches, the last of his family, and his loving wife all because of a damn uprising. The reality of what just transpired filled him with hatred, Jeric opened himself to the dark side and let it consume him. He would make himself rich again even if he had to abuse his letter of marque. Stealing what he wanted, when he wanted, from anyone not an ally to the Corporation. Jeric’s original orders were to raid the convoy for retail and food supplies. But that wasn’t enough to satisfy his rage. He told the three other dark jedi who had accompanied him that plans had changed and their orders were to now take everything and destroy the convoy so the attack couldn’t be traced back to the Corporation. Everyone was shocked, but between the encoded message Jeric received and his clever lie the change made sense. However when they arrive to the coordinates they saw nothing, no convoy. Jeric assumed they were early until two Majestic-Class heavy cruisers dropped out of hyperspace and locked weapons. A message from a Captain Larin informed Jeric that his ships were suspected of piracy by the Galactic Alliance and were to be boarded.

The hot headed Sith knew something was up. The Galactic Alliance and Corporation share a partnership. Both the Despot and Turmoil bear the markings of the Corporation and though the partnership was uneasy at times, the Alliance would never enter the Orian System without notification. Also how the hell did they know two vessels from the Corporation would be in this exact location at this exact time. Without hesitation Jeric gave the order to disable the two cruisers and lunch boarding parties. If it was piracy he was suspected of, it was piracy he would commit.

After the attack, Jeric was confronted, on board one of the Alliance ships, by the Corporation’s Chief Personnel Officer, Lynyrd Pepoi, demanding a reason as to why he attacked an ally to the Corporation. Jeric tried to explain the situation but was called to the Turmoil to meet up with Executive Director Teu Pepoi. Jeric along with Macron and Jade, left Lynyrd on the bridge to clean up the mess the nobleman, turn Sith, had apparently made.

Jeric met up with Teu on the bridge of the VAC Turmoil, she didn’t look pleased and demanded that they speak in private. The Executive Director led Jeric into the ship’s war room and order that he take a seat. She began interrogating Jeric about what happen and finally reveled that Doctor L’eonheart, wife and proxy to the Corporation’s President, was listening in. Doctor L’eonheart quickly told Jeric the truth, everything that transpired was a set-up on the Organization’s behalf and any existence of this mission would be destroyed. Jeric was order to return to Tarthos with Teu and with Doctor L’eonheart’s closing statement assigned Jeric as Teu’s Senior Director and new Aedile of House Marka Ragnos.

Festival of Unrest

By mid 36 ABY Jeric was already completely emerged in the daily operations of the Corporation and did a lot to aid Executive Director Pepoi in her duties. Jeric decided to relieved himself as Praetor, allowing for Magistrate Ekeia Iclo to take his spot next to the Herald. Not even a month after he stepped away from one Dark Summit position another present itself. Jeric was approach by the Dark Prophet of Justice, Kir Katarn, who request the Sith’s services as his Prosecutor of the Brotherhood.

The Corporation’s hold over Tarthos, under Teu and Jeric’s command, had expanded greatly allowing a small representative government to turn into a planet wide government. A new Governor was elected by Executive Director Pepoi in place of the old more popular one. Eventually an internal power struggle forced Teu Pepoi to return to her former position as the Corporation's Chief Personal Officer, leaving the position of Executive Director to Jeric.

Markosian City before the Riots

Under his directive new military installations were created and new mining operations opened across the planet. Jeric also wanted to speed up the reconstruction efforts in Kar Alabrek, so that it could soon be renamed as the planet’s capital city. Starting with rebuilding and modernizing the Castle then moving on to the Northern Coastline which was nearly finished. The goal was to push the city's completion from 44 ABY to the end of the decade. Even Markosian City was almost finished under Jeric’s watch, all major projects were completed and every sector was operational.

The Banner designed by Quaestor Cyrin

The Festival of Renewal, a Marka Ragnos Holiday, was planned in light of the tremendous efforts made to renovate Kar Alabrek. Naga Sadow’s Consul and Jeric wanted to celebrate and give the people of Tarthos a break. However the Organization threaten to ruin the event and persuade the people to turn on their government. Security was tight on the Northern Coastline of Kar Alabrek in the week prior to the festival. Jeric commissioned the best tailors Tarthos had to offer to create a banner that he designed. The banner was to instill the citizen of Kar Alabrek with pride in their government and hope in themselves. The first few days of the Festival went off without incident. However it wouldn't last for long as the Organization was stirring trouble in the capital city.

Security was so focused on the Festival that protests broke out in Markosian City. The Organization had convince the once thankful immigrants that the laboring would just get harder. Commerce and trade were to become more strictly regulated and higher taxes would have to be paid. For days the protesters stood outside the gates of the Governor's Mansion. A handful traveled to Kar Alabrek and dared to protest outside the walls of Alabrek Castle, the Festival was quickly ended and the Dlarit Security Force was deployed to quell the demonstrators. The protestors went to far though when they stole the Executive Director's corporate shuttle and crashed it into Orian Manor. Luckily the Governor survived, though badly injured, thanks to the quick actions of his Security Force. Shortly after the protests turned into riots. Markosian City was plunged into complete chaos, fires burned and crime was endless. Executive Director Cyrin had no choice and finally gave the order to isolate the city and enact martial law. Using one of the planetary shield generators, the city was sealed off from the rest of the world. Jeric Cyrin then order the capital be returned to Kar Alabrek and until order was restored the Executive Director would have immediate control over the planet’s government.

It was around this time when the Brotherhood learned that War was right on the horizon. New Tython, base of operations for Odan-Urr, was to be invaded and the Jedi scum wiped out by the years end. Despite everything else it was now up to Executive Director Cyrin to lead the Dark Jedi of Marka Ragnos and Soldiers of the DSF in the fast approaching crusade against the Jedi.

Invasion of New Tython

As the days drew closer to war, preparations became more intense. The Dlarit Security Force was busy mobilizing their troops and the fleet. The dark jedi of Marka Ragnos were training harder than Jeric had ever seen. This war was unlike the others, the Jedi posed the biggest threat to the Brotherhood in many years.

Just hours aways from war the forces of Naga Sadow converged on Sepros. The disciples gathered inside Sadow Palace waiting to hear from the Dark Lord of the Sith himself. As the last dark jedi trickled into the war room the hologram of Darth Ashen appeared. Speaking more as a Son of Sadow rather than the Grand Master, the words motivated the crowd. Even Overlord Astronicus Sadow, who stood at the front of his clan was moved by the Grand Master’s words.

Following a short briefing from Consul Tsainetomo Sadow the warriors of Naga Sadow scattered finding their shuttle assignments. Jeric stood at the base of Lord Ragnos’s statue handing out assignments to the numerous dark jedi that came seeking orders from their Quaestor. When the word finally came, Jeric himself was on one of the many shuttles departing for the fleet. He was attached to one of the D-SOG Units heading for the Republic-class Star Destroyer Final Way. While en route to the Brotherhood’s Rendezvous Point the leaders of Naga Sadow were given an updated briefing. Jeric learned that Trevarus Caerick, Overlord of Marka Ragnos, would be on the battlefield. Some of the more senior members of the house felt threatened or worried about Caerick joining them on New Tython. Sith are greedy, they like to take all the glory, they want to spill as much blood as they can, regardless of who's blood it is. But in a time of war against a threat like the Jedi they tend to forget about individual glory or pride and work as brothers.

Finally arriving at the Rendezvous Point the entire might of the Brotherhood entered hyperspace for a mere two minutes. In a flash New Tython was in front of the fleet. Within seconds dropships began to pour out of the battle-cruisers heading for their designated LZs. Jeric and fellow Quaestor Mirado L’eonheart boarded their assault shuttle. Minutes later the side doors opened and D-SOG Commandos jumped out followed by two Dark Jedi. Jeric noticed Tsainetomo and Marcon exiting a MAAT shadowing the Clan Overlord. The other disciples of Sadow scattered out into the open fields heading towards the nearby Harakoan Tribes. From the woodline a legion of the natives emerged and opened fire on the Sadowans.

Decimation of War

Deflecting serval blaster bolts Jeric moved towards the three powerful Dark Jedi. He suggested that a forward operating base be establish. Macron agreed and Astronicus gave the order for a prefabricated base to be delivered. Jeric noticed that the Jedi had finally arrived weaving in and out of the natives that were advancing on their position. However the Jedi’s were not alone, Mandalorians bearing the marking of Clan Ordo could be seen. Like a maelstrom the Disciples of Sadow clashed with their enemies. Flashes of blue, green, red, silver and yellow danced across the field. Bodies began to fall, most were natives, some where jedi, some mando and even fewer were dark jedi. Now more than ever the thirst for blood and the rage of war could be felt by all of Sadow.

The Mandalorians of Clan Ordo battle the Dark Jedi Brotherhood

After the initial wave was defeated the forces of Naga Sadow began to establish a defensive line. The prefabricated based had finally arrived, the inside of the Command Center quickly became a chaotic flow of communication. The Consul order both Jeric and Mirado out into the battlefield to lead their forces. Jeric worked his way towards the forward defense lines were many Journeymen from Marka Ragnos and hundreds of soldiers were holding the enemy at bay. Jeric final made it to OP Ragnos. The D-SOG Officer in charge informed Jeric of the situation. The Mandalorians and Jedi were causing more of an issued than originally expected. There were a number of casualties already and only a battalion of soldiers and a handful of journeymen remained.

The battlefield was complete pandemonium, but among it he saw the twin silver blades of Manji dancing about. From the wood line he could see at least a dozen Jedi and many more Mandalorians advancing on his forces. Jeric order his Commander to find Araxi and Kano, he was gonna need all the help he could get to hold this point. It was about time he lead from the front, activating his saber and leaping over the barricades, Jeric charged forward. The Sith danced among the mayhem deflecting blaster bolts and striking down any natives that came within range. Fighting side by side with two younger journeymen was right were Jeric wanted to be. Seconds later an explosion thru Jeric to his back. He looked over and saw the two younger dark jedi lifeless on the ground.

Recovering, the Sith noticed two Mandalorians and a Jedi. One of the Mandalorians was missing his jetpack’s missile. The Jedi noticed Jeric getting up and rushed towards him, however the Sith did not intend to play games. With a quick motion Jeric unleashed a blast of force energy right at the charging Jedi. The blast picked the Jedi off his feet and threw him back towards the two mandalorians. One of the mandalorians was caught by the blast and thrown off his feet the other launched himself into the air and began firing at Jeric. The Sith easily blocked and deflected each bolt before sensing the Jedi charging at him. Jeric timed it perfectly deflecting one of the mandalorians bolts right into the ground making a cloud of dust. Inside the dust red and green danced as Jeric and the Jedi dueled. The Mandalorian landed next to his partner and the two began moving towards the cloud. As it began to settle the two could only see one blade, a crimson blade. They opened fire, Jeric twirled and twisted his blade blocking the shots. One made it thru and struck Jeric in the leg but he paid it no mind. Again one of the Mandalorians leapt into the air, the one on the ground lit his flamethrower causing Jeric to roll backwards. As the Sith came back to his feet the jetpack missile from the airborne Mandalorians exploded in the air no less than a meter from his face. The sounds of the battlefield faded, everything was suddenly dark. The Sith leader of House Marka Ragnos laid motionless in the mud.

Ruins of Battle

The silence slowly turned into ringing and the ringing slowly brought the sounds of the battlefield back. Jeric could hear the distance screams and blaster shots slowly getting louder. Jeric tried opening his eyes and couldn’t at first. With effort he finally opened his eyes and felt noting but pain, tremendous pain. Above all else, he still saw nothing but blurry darkness. Jeric had been blinded by that Mandalorian, he could only assume his face was torn up by the blast as well. The Sith slowly sat up and felt around for any other injuries.

Macron found Jeric on the battlefield and administered some medicine that the Sith Madman had created years ago. The pain form his injuries quickly subsided and although he still couldn't see he could at least concentrate. Jeric found Roxas on the West Flank and almost got decapitated by the Mandalorian turn Dark Jedi. The two Sadowans fought back to back striking down anything that broke thru the wall of blaster fire being created by the Regulators. The enemy lines were beginning to get overwhelmed by the Dark Jedi forces. The pincer maneuver that Senior Director Sonjie suggested was working and the forces of Odan-Urr were slowly thinning.

Jeric reached out with the force and sensed a Jedi charging him, the Sith raised his lightsaber to meet the sky colored blade of the Jedi. The Jedi immediately opened into a barrage of high speed attacks. Jeric could sense it was a female and was more than just a mere padawan. A Knight maybe, she was clearly well trained in ataru and if it weren’t Jeric’s mastery of vapaad he would have been easily overwhelmed. The female Jedi knight didn’t last long against the blinded sith, tiring herself out her rapid attacks slowed allowing Jeric to unleash a brutal combination. The Jedi’s body fell limp in the mud without a head. Jeric raised his head to the sky as it continued to pour down on the battlefield as if crying for the countless deaths. Hours later the conflict finally ended. The Brotherhood successfully broke thru and captured the Jedi Temple, burning it to the ground. Jeric was transported back to the Final Way to receive treatment for his extensive injuries.

Aftermath in Turmoil

In the aftermath of the war Naga Sadow returned to its home in the Orian System. Changes were on the horizon and disorder was sure to follow. The injured Quaestor of Marka Ragnos was rarely seen by the public eye. It wasn’t just his body that was injured it was his pride. Locked inside his private chambers at the Temple of Ragnos Jeric refused to see the light of day, not that he could anyways. Those privilege enough to even enter the Quaestor’s office would only see the Sith’s shadowy figure. Towards the end of the year Jeric stopped allowing entrance into his chambers. The summit began to notice the disruption Jeric’s lack of presence caused and in early 36 ABY agree to relieve him as Quaestor. Kalia Pepoi, who had replaced Teu as Clan Rollmaster, was charged with delivering the message to the phantom Quaestor. Upon arriving on Mucenic, Kalia was told that no one had seen or heard from Jeric in at least three weeks now. Searching the Grand Hall she found it empty. Next she tried the Meditation Room and even the Quaestor’s personal chambers but found nothing. Jeric had disappeared into the shadows. The summit had no choice but to appoint Kalia as the new Quaestor of Marka Ragnos.

Jeric had to find new ambition in his chaotic life. He refused to be seen by his fellow brothers and sisters until he could reclaim his pride and possible his appearance. Disappearing in the dead of night, Jeric had left Mucenic and withdrew from the Orian System. For weeks the Sith traveled aimlessly thru space, looking for answers. Stopping on random worlds for days at a time, Jeric killed cause he could and stole what he needed to survive. At some point Jeric ended up on his home world, hiding in the ruins of his family’s estate. For months he stayed secluded from the galaxy, a self-induced hermit. One day while meditating he remember a statement made by one of the gatekeepers of the holocron he found long ago. This gatekeeper spoke of a forgotten sith world and of the work he did on this world. Jeric left his self-imposed exile on Canti and traveled to the Sith Worlds Region.

Malicious Facade

Jeric with Sith Mask, Circa 36 AB

Jeric had only been on the frozen wasteland of Korriz for a few hours. Ruins and ancient sith relics littered the planet’s surface. The Sith was being drawn towards the a mountain ridge where he could faintly see a large structure atop one of the mountains. The dark side was strongest at that point and Jeric had no doubt that was the workshop of Tritos Nal. Among many other relics, Jeric found an ancient mask worn by the warriors of the old Sith Empire. It was a most convenient way to hide his scars and impose fear into his enemies.

Once inside the workshop Jeric felt a presence torn between the dark side and the light. The Sith followed his senses until he entered the main chamber of Tritos Nal himself. Jeric had no time to take it all in, from behind him a human male about Jeric’s age lunged at him with a poorly forged Sith Sword. Jeric’s form was erratic due to his eyesight but his persistence and strength were overpowering. In the heat of battle the strange attacker struck the Holocron of Tritos Nal with his Sith Sword. In a flash of light the holocron exploded with energy and the Sith Sword turned to ash. Jeric was furious that the only means of knowledge from a master of sith magic had been destroyed. The human revealed that he knew the secrets of the holocron and would be willing to share them if Jeric spared him and showed him the true ways of the dark side. The Sith accepted Maelous Ascarend’s proposal but only if he proved his knowledge of sith magic. Maelous told his new Sith Master he could alter the sith mask using alchemy so Jeric could look thru the eye lens and see as if they were his own eyes. Weeks past and Maelous struggled to fulfill his promise but finally was able to perfect the mask. Jeric no longer had to rely on the force to sense his surroundings, he could see again.

Due to this, Jeric is almost never seen without an alchemically treated Sith Mask he found on Korriz. Using the crystal matrix from a destroyed holocron to make the lens and infusing it with Sith Magic the mask allows Jeric to see as if through his own eyes.
