| Following the recent events of the [[GJW XI|Great Jedi War]] and the [[Dark Crusade]], the citadel was built as the headquarters of House Shar Dahkan giving thema place to hold their forces inside of the walled cities defences. The stucture was planned by the now Quaestor, Galleros Sjl, who stepped up to power and spearheaded the project. The whole idea rested on his hands to turn an area of space which was the size of a mountain into a monolithic spectacle for the entire city to revere and fear. | | Following the events of the [[GJW XI|Great Jedi War]] and the [[Dark Crusade]], this citadel was constructed as the headquarters of House Shar Dahkan. This gave the occupants a location in which to barrack and train loyalist forces within the walled city. The stucture was first concieved by former Quaestor, [[Galleros Sjl]] in [[32 ABY]]. He alone spearheaded the project in an effort to construct a monolithic spectacle for the entire city to revere and fear. |

| When the change of leadership came fully into effect, halfway through the building production when he found that the [[Consul]] called [[Locke Sonjie]] introduced the new Aedile who would be working alongside him, they were both now planning. When the project was completed, the building blocked out the sun for the southern side of the city, covering the entire district in darkness. The dome at the top leered forward as if to watch its subjects, to inspire goodwill yet withhold a hidden rage.
| | About halfway through it's construction, the Consul of Naga Sadow introduced Sjl to his new Aedile. [[Inarya | Inarya Tiberius Entar]]. The two worked together to ensure the success of the project. Once completed the building was just as imposing as intended, blocking out sunlight for the southern side of the city and covering the entire district in perpetual darkness. The dome which sat at the topmost tower leaned forward, as if to remind the inhabitants their true masters were ever vigilant, ever watching. |

| Leading out from the main hall is the large central courtyard, this space is flat and in direct view of the sun with lush green vegetation. The beds are filled with the local tropical flora and fauna as well as many other exotic species per request of the Quaestor, both natural occurring species and works of his own creation.
| | The path out of the main hall leads into a large, central courtyard. The courtyard is flat, giving the lush green vegetation direct sunlight. The flower beds planted by the former Quaestor Sjl are still filled with a rich selection of local tropical flora and fauna tended to by a number of garden attendants. Even after Galleros departure from the House, a few exotic specimens remain, in addition to a few species planted by other members of the House. |
| | |
| The spaced is filled not only with the sound of the native wildlife but also the sound of trickling water from the large central fountain. This sculpture of beauty is bisymmetrical with three bowls, the higher ones smaller than the base. The outside of the highest bowl is lined with the official markings of the [[Black Guard]], representing a faction within the brotherhood long forgotten. The next bowl holds a native Aetheran etching, with the highest symbols clearly seen as the House symbol. The lowest and the widest bowl in which the entire fountain sits in takes on a different style. Inside the bowl where the water sits is a copying of the Clan’s insignia, chiseled into the bowl and coloured a darker slate. The arms of the clan insignia reach out to four lips that drop for water to flow through. This stream leads off away in random directions and towards the preserved clusters of gardens that the courtyards holds.

| In each of these gardens, the streams feed the flower beds, the trees and the shrubs that naturally grow and pollinate with each other. The wildlife are most likely found here, drinking and picking fruit. The stream then leads off out towards the cliff edge and drops down into [[Seng Karash]], where it is collected into large bathing areas.

He keeps these creatures in here for two reasons, the first is so they can cull back the overgrowing or dying flora located within this office which removes the trouble of him performing maintenance. The second reason is to keep other members in check, by first sending the juvenile slugs out with fitted cameras and then releasing the adult father who would pester the member until he kills him, or they are devoured. by one thousand teeth. | | The office was further transformed to utmost practicality, shunning almost any comfort as the office is usually empty.

Before it's destruction the Lion's Tooth was the headquarters of House Shar Dakhan, located in the city of Seng Karash upon the planet Aeotheran. It served as the official seat of the House's Summit.
History
Following the events of the Great Jedi War and the Dark Crusade, this citadel was constructed as the headquarters of House Shar Dahkan. This gave the occupants a location in which to barrack and train loyalist forces within the walled city. The stucture was first concieved by former Quaestor, Galleros Sjl in 32 ABY. He alone spearheaded the project in an effort to construct a monolithic spectacle for the entire city to revere and fear.
About halfway through it's construction, the Consul of Naga Sadow introduced Sjl to his new Aedile. Inarya Tiberius Entar. The two worked together to ensure the success of the project. Once completed the building was just as imposing as intended, blocking out sunlight for the southern side of the city and covering the entire district in perpetual darkness. The dome which sat at the topmost tower leaned forward, as if to remind the inhabitants their true masters were ever vigilant, ever watching.
Structure
Main Hall
The main hall is a vast open room directly in the heart of the citadel. The roof of the room is supported on several large black marble pillars, each draped with the heraldry of both the House and Clan Naga Sadow. Pillars line the walkway to a large central staging area, used by the Quaestor and Aedile for any official House announcements. It is in this large space that the many relics the House has gathered since its inception are displayed. Among these is the infamous Sword of Shar Dakhan. The room is mainly used for formal events, but it has been known to be used as a general meeting area, depend on who occupies the seat of power.
Courtyard
The path out of the main hall leads into a large, central courtyard. The courtyard is flat, giving the lush green vegetation direct sunlight. The flower beds planted by the former Quaestor Sjl are still filled with a rich selection of local tropical flora and fauna tended to by a number of garden attendants. Even after Galleros departure from the House, a few exotic specimens remain, in addition to a few species planted by other members of the House.
The courtyard is filled with the sound of the native wildlife and the sound of trickling water which pours from the large central fountain. This sculpture is composed of three bowls, organized vertically with the smaller bowls pouring into the larger bowls below. The outside of the highest bowl is are engraved with the marking of the Order of the Black Guard. The next bowl holds a native Aetheran etching, with the highest symbols clearly seen as the House symbol. The lowest and widest bowl is of a subtly different style. The inside of the bowl is engraved of the Clan’s insignia, chiseled into the surface and overlaid with a darker slate. The arms of the clan insignia reach out to four lips that drop for water to flow through. This stream flows off into different directions towards the preserved clusters of gardens within the courtyards. Within each garden cluster, the streams feed the flower beds, trees and the shrubs that naturally grow there. Wildlife can sometimes be found here, drinking of the water and gathering from the vegetation. The streams flow onward toward the cliff edge which drops down into Seng Karash, where it is collected into large bathing areas.
Holocron Library
Holocron Library
Branching off from one of the many corridors of the main hall is the Holocron Library. The room is carved almost entirely from obsidian glass giving the room a black-purple hue. Towards the middle of the room are several large white marble statues of great dark side scholars which appear to stare down upon the room's occupants. Beyond the statues, desks litter the empty spaces. Each was carved out of a single piece of Gallian Firestone, with a black high back chair pushed neatly into each one.
The walls of the room are covered from floor to ceiling with Holocron storage banks, each one documenting thousands of years of knowledge ranging from legends of the Ancient Sith Empire to data collected about far-off planets and systems. Scholars and historians of House Shar Dakhan can often be found here, as though guarding the ancient wisdom within. Large shards of Glow Stone hanging from the ceiling illuminate the room with a warm light as the crystal nature of the Firestone desk catch the light, causing them to shimmer slightly. What the Glow Stone doesn’t illuminate, the harsh artificial light of the storage bank does, giving the room a odd mix of the natural world and the technological. While the information kept within the library is officially accessible to any Brotherhood member, there are several tomes documenting secretive history of Clan Naga Sadow. These secrets and hidden rituals are kept locked away from the anyone but the eyes from Sons & Daughters of Sadow and the Clan's Upper Summit.
Barracks
Citadel Barracks
Near the back of the complex are the living quarters of the members of House Shar Dakhan and the barracks of the House's Ground Forces. Each room has been equipped with all the basic amenities needed for comfort. Utilitarian in nature, the individual rooms are big enough to house a bed, desk and chair. A small storage unit is also provided for the occupant, accessible below the bed. While primarily used to house the 2,000 troop attachment of House Shar Dakhan’s flagship the VSDII Covenant, it is capable holding extra personnel that may need be deployed there. A section of the barracks is also segregated to hold some simple training facilities and storage for weapons and equipment for official House use.
Equite Offices
Located upon the first floor of the Lion’s Tooth are offices closed off to Journeyman, and rarely spoken of. This space stretches the entire diameter of the citadel and is layered with firestone desks, each desk supported with a comfortable chair stitched with leather. Given to more comforts than the common facilities, the room was designed for the Equite rank members of the House to work. Each desk holds a own personal console, a built-in holocommunicator and a bears a placard with a dossier number for its designated member. It is rare to see another inside here, as most Equites use the consoles in their rooms, or remain engaged in business away from the Lion's Tooth.

In past, it found most of its use from dedicated members of the Krath Order, and the occasional aspiring Sith pilot filing applications to the spaceport located near Kel Rasha.
Elder Luxury Lounge
This area was designed exclusively for Elders. No unauthorized members enter this area of the citadel, as a large gilded door fitted with a biometric scanner blocks the way into the lounge area. Behind the door is a long hallway that leads to a large ornate space lined with golden fixtures accented against deep-purple polished marble. On one side of the room is a large bar behind which is nearly every conceivable alcoholic beverage in the know galaxy can be found, each poured and served by any number of different service droids that flit busily round the room.
Opposite the bar is seating area, furnished with several large, soft chairs made from the finest fabrics that can be procured. These chairs are clustered together, positioned for members to be able to converse and discuss things both privately and comfortably.

A plaque beneath each statue holds titles and awards that each Elder has achieved.
Aedile Office

The official home of Bentre Stahoes while Aedile was far simpler than one might expect given his position. While adorned with a number of momentos along one wall. There was also a long metal desk situated there, with a mess of datapads and flimsiplast on its surface and a padded metal chair pushed underneath.

At one time, the former Quaestor, Galleros had reflected his love of everything green, by having the office filled with exotic and native flora decorating the office. The plants grew and flourished within the office under his tender care. Later, when [Darkblade]] served the House as Quaestor, the office was been cleaned up of the shrubs. Vines and tendrils of plants were carefully moved to the courtyard to allow further growth, and to serve as an slightly uncontrollable additional defense system for Lion's Tooth should anyone attempt to sneak through the courtyards.
The office was further transformed to utmost practicality, shunning almost any comfort as the office is usually empty. The Anzat preferred to operate from aboard the Sadowan ship, Covenant. When it was necessary to travel to the Lion's Tooth, the Quaestor prefered to make these visits as short as possible. The walls were bare except for drapery depicting the Quaestor's personal warbanner and a large metallic desk sat in the middle of the room. A heavy wooden padded chair was kept behind the desk to allows for some slight comfort during any meetings the Quaestor would endure.
At the back of the office area, there is a single window that overlooks Seng Karash and it’s beautiful glimmer from the sunshine.
