| '''Vladek Solander''' was born in [[0 BBY]] is a Dark Jedi Knight in House Marka Ragnos of Clan Naga Sadow. Abandoned on Eres III at birth, Vladek's history is mired with disappointment and struggle, both with himself, and others. He is the current Rollmaster of House Marka Ragnos and was the last Battleteam Leader of the Night Raptors before it was closed.

| ==History==
| |
| ===Digging Roots===
| |
| Vladek was abandoned on the [[Eres_III#Xoxin | Xoxin]] plains of [[Eres III]] at birth and was picked up by a 'kind' Wookie, who took him to the nearby [[Eres_III#Sero_Orphanage | orphanage]]. The young boy had a troubled childhood, not uttering a single word until the age of seven, and shivering on hot summer days. However, like the others, Vladek grew up healthy and strong. In a twist of fate, at the age of twelve, Vladek and several others bludgeoned the unsuspecting Headmaster of the orphanage to death after they were punished and belated for an act of trouble-making they did not commit. To avoid being arrested, the group of murderers fled in the dead Headmaster's ship to Telos. They were trapped after crashing and put into forced labor for a group of mercenaries, until at 16, Vladek managed to escape captivity. However, during his time of captivity with the mercenaries, Vladek studied battle tactics, and his physical abilities increased. Several years later, a more intelligent and physically stronger Vladek was taking bounties on Nar Shaddaa, not hesitating to kill if he had too. Over time, Vladek developed a talent for Bounty Hunting and took on some larger bounties, hoping to get an early retirement, relax and settle down. Sadly for him, this chance never came - as a bounty request came in that would change the young man's life.

| At 22, while hunting this bounty, Vladek crash-landed on Maryx Minor, where he terrorized two old men about the history of the place, forcing the information out of them through intimidation, and later, violence - before surprisingly finding his bounty imprisoned by a hooded man named Xenos. Xenos showed Vladek the force by using it to kill the bounty Vladek had been hired to assassinate. and invited him into the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]. Vladek arrived at [[Sadow Palace]] during the middle of the Sixth [[Great Jedi War]], deciding to side with the Red Jac. He fought in two battles, one of which he was on the victorious side and the other which he lost. He lost two fingers in his second battle, but they were later replaced with the help of the [[Dark Side of the Force|Dark Side]] and genetic enhancements. It was around this time that Sharmin Wheyes became his first master. Under her guidance, Vladek advanced to the rank of Guardian, but Sharmin left the Brotherhood, and she advised Vladek to become the student of her former master. Vladek followed his master's parting advice and took [[Kat Pridemore]] as his new master. The actions of the young Vladek caught the eye of House Leadership, and he was appointed [[Tetrarch]] of the [[Night Raptors]], giving the young Krath his first true taste of leadership.

| As Vladek advanced in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood he frequently visited the planet Maryx Minor, as it was the place where he had fallen to the Dark Side at first, after the end of his successful career as a Bounty Hunter . One shock to Vladek, however was that he would embrace the Dark Side again there as a means to preserve his sanity. While as a [[Guardian]], he was reported to the small police force on Maryx Minor for a violent assault on two senile old men who had failed to give him the information he wanted. He first violently butchered the police force that tried to arrest him and then old men whom he had assaulted on the previous occasion. One of police force was revealed to be a Jedi Padawan, working in disguise. A long and viscous duel ensued, ending with Vladek knocking the Padawans' saber into the surrounding lava, then stabbing him in the face numerous times. However, after this bloodbath was ended, the Krath began to question his self-control in the use of the Force. He was driven the point of insanity, the only way being able to solve his madness was to accept the Dark Side completely. After doing so, a newly replenished Krath got him back on his feet after the long mental struggle and he returned to Sadow Palace to think things over. It was around this time that Vladek began to tilt more to the [[Sith]] way of thinking, considering his rage to be more a thing of the Sith than of the Krath to whom he was devoted.

| On a sad occasion, shortly after his promotion to a [[Jedi Hunter]], and his appointment as leader of [[Ravana Squadron]], Vladek was visiting the ransacked orphanage and blazing Xoxin plains around where he had grown up, and found a record of himself amongst the ruins of the orphanage, which seems It recorded him as; ‘Missing.’ However, it also listed him as ‘Unstable’ - in regards to his toubled childhood. The datapad with his file also provided Vladek with some additional information regarding his birth: his father had sold him to the orphanage. Upon discovery of this; Vladek swore the death of his father with a cry of rage. He ripped the datapad from its hinges and but through what remained of the orphanage, destroying what was left of his past life. On his return to [[Sepros]], Vladek pondered why his father had abandoned him. He considered various possibilities, but was unable to come to a conclusion of what the reason was for his abandonment. However, from that day, Vladek has began studying all he can find about his lost family, in the hope of finding his father. After his breakout of rage yet again, Vladek decided that he could no longer trust in the [[Krath]] to keep him sane, so proclaimed himself a Sith, hoping to channel the rage and hatred of his father into a new strength.

| As he began to earn a name around his Clan and House, Vladek was dispatched to the [[Phare System]] to help in the recovery of the [[Sword of Sadow]]. He performed admirably in the recovery, but during the retreat was blinded in one eye and lost one of his legs after rashly attempting to face down a Force Adept from the [[Emperor's Hammer]] as his Battleteam evacuated. However, he successfully killed his opponent despite these impediments, by throwing a litch blade at his opponents face. After his return to Sepros, he had his leg replaced with that of a Phase I Dark Trooper, but kept his crippled eye as a reminder of his ignorance and impatience, promising himself not to be so foolhardy as to charge straight in rashly again. Despite these new physical boundaries, Vladek was elevated to Dark Jedi Knight, with the blessing of his master and Quaestor. The newly anointed Knight continued his work within the Clan and House, soon being appointed as Rollmaster of House Marka Ragnos, despite the outcries of several who doubted his ability as a successful leader, or the other's who thought that he would break down and go mad. Soon afterwards, he experienced premonitions telling him that members of his family were still alive. His spirits high because of these visions, Vladek set about the task of helping his House.

| Shortly after the appointment of [[Draken-Korin 'Ylith' Elariël Atema | Ylith Atema]] as [[Aedile]] of House Marka Ragnos, Vladek discovered a member of his family. [[Corin 'Liwaen' Solander | Corin Liwaen]], (who was ironically also looking for his brother) was confronted by Solander upon approaching Sero Orphanage. A heated argument took place at the landing of Corin's ship, but the two men eventually managed to see reason and entered the crumbling former headmaster's office, now a small detached ruin of a hut, free from the main building. The two men sat down and discussed histories, and after an intense explanation from both men, it became apparent that they were brothers. Twins, to be exact. Vladek soon found out that his father - apparently named Necro Vladek Solander. Slightly abashed, the Knight rejoiced in the fact that he now had a family, not only Corin as his brother, but a younger sister, Megan. Setting about his tasks in the [[House]] with a new found joy. Corin took up the title of Corin 'Liwaen' Solander, accepting Vladek as his brother. Eres III became the families' home, though as Corin commented,

| "It could do with some fixing up, this place."

| | |
| ===Resolving the Unresolved===
| |
| | |
| After their meeting on Eres III, Corin insisted that the brother's hold construction of a new construction on top of the orphanage to go and meet Megan. This visit would go rather badly wrong. Upon his return to Naboo with his brother Corin, Vladek began to feel far more at peace, but still was prone to explosive outbursts of anger, as an unfortunate junk dealer on the streets near the Gallo Mountains found out. After openly stealing a rusting pit droid from the table, the dealer made an angry retort, and found his neck quickly broken by Solander. After spotting a large Theta-class T-2c Shuttle landing nearby, Vladek first met his sister, Megan Liwaen. The revelation soon came to the two [[Dark Jedi]] that their sister was pregnant before she had married, something unheard of in the Solander blood-line. Corin was outraged with his sister, because he knew her better. Vladek was disappointed, but not as enraged as his brother was - after asking Megan her parters name, it was revealed that his name was Wei Penin; and a student in the Jedi Academy. Corin threatened Megan's life, and she ran for her life. The two brothers then swore to kill their sister once she had provided an heir to the Solander line.
| |
| | |
| Despite Megan's betrayal, Vladek could no longer contain such anger in himself as a Sith. The power was making him vastly overconfident, as the loss of his eye and leg proved. He turned to the Scholarly ways of the Krath again, maintaining his vigil as Rollmaster in House Marka Ragnos.
