[[Ashura Isradia]] (formally [[Alector Isradia]]) is a [[Sith Battlemaster]] and [[Proconsul]] of [[Clan Naga Sadow]].  
'''Ashura Isradia Sadow''' was a [[Sith]] [[Warlord]] and [[Son of Sadow]]. He was also known as the '''Puppet Master of Sadow''' due to his sadistic nature of crushing the minds of his foes with the use of manipulation and [[starwars:Mind trick/Legends|malicious mind control]], then turning them into willing puppets to be used and discarded at will.

=== Early Life (2 BBY to 13 ABY) ===


It was during the Ascension Wars that Illyana Isradia became pregnant with the unborn child of Jonaleth Isradia. Disturbed by her husband’s actions during the war, Isradia's wife committed suicide; the embryo was extracted from Illyana's womb and quickly placed into first available surrogate (a bondswoman by the name of Miya Konden). Seeing how consumed Isradia had become with the war, his trusted aid Erin decided not to tell him about the unborn child until after his victory.
Ashura Megos and his twin sister, [[Atalanta Megos|Atalanta]], were born to Alexandros and Cassiopeia. The twins were [[starwars:Force-sensitive/Legends|Force-sensitive]], but their parents were not; fearing the Empire might want the twins for their potential, they kept moving around. The Megos family never stayed in one place for too long, and it remained like this for years until one fateful day. Their transport vessel malfunctioned and had to make an emergency landing on Tython. It seemed that a [[Jonaleth Isradia|Dark Side Adept]] had caused the failure; he had sensed the twins’ Force signatures and laid a trap. The Megos family escaped into the Tython wilderness. At the same time, the other passengers died; they were tracked down and killed too. Only the twins were kept alive; however, while Atalanta fled, Ashura was left behind and fell into his parents’ murderer's hands. The Dark Side Adept took the boy and raised him on Tython; Ashura’s upbringing forced him to forget about his parents and sister. As far as he knew, Tython was his home. His childhood consisted of twisted games and harsh lessons training him in the Force core abilities. Ashura also learned how to read and write, to survive and hunt in the wilderness, and basic medical techniques to dress his wounds. A pattern emerged: the boy would spend time training in the necessary Force abilities, being taught basic lore regarding the Dark Side of the Force, then leave on his own for months on end as survival training. It was during his teenage years that his time on Tython was coming to an end. He learned about the organisation his master was attached to and was deemed ready for his indoctrination.


Miya was taken offworld and went into hiding on Melachon. She eventually gave birth to baby boy whom she named Alector, however there were complication after child birth and she unfortunately died. Seeing how the infant had no mother or father, the doctors decided to report the baby too died, upon hearing this Erin decided to wipe all records of Illyana's child ever existing. Alector Isradia was orphaned on Melachon upon the conclusion of the Ascension Wars, a world now controlled by his father.
=== Brotherhood Indoctrination (13 ABY to 17 ABY) ===
[[Image:Tol_Mustanen-fairuse.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Tol Mustanen]]
Alector was fortunate enough to inherit Miya Konden's Bondsman status and was adopted into the Imperial House on Melachon. As a member of the Iperion, Alector learned how to use Vardorian magic, as well as taught diplomacy, history, sword fighting and hand-to-hand combat. He was well liked by many members of the Melachon Isradias, especially by Korvalis Isradia who adopted Alector as his son. Alector Isradia left Melachon with his adopted father for Tol Mustanen on Vardor: Korvalis was made Panarch and Viscount of Tol Mustanen, and Alector became the Dane of Tol Mustanen.


=== ??? ===
As an initiate, Ashura spent the majority of his time at the [[Shadow Academy]], an institution that takes Force-sensitive individuals as potential members and physically and mentally twists them into [[starwars:Dark Jedi/Legends|Dark Jedi]], then with proper training and testing watches as the most ruthless of them sacrifice the weaker ones to further progress down the path of the Dark Side. Ashura thrived in this environment, and it seemed his upbringing had prepared him for life at the academy. In his second year, he learned the basics of lightsaber combat and more advanced Force techniques that heavily focused on the use of the Dark Side of the Force. He became fascinated with [[starwars:Republic_Military/Legends|Old Republic military]] history. The tactics they used, the battles, the victories and the defeats they suffered were all very educational to him. Ashura knew the only way to succeed in the academy was to grow stronger, even if that meant killing to get ahead. It was only natural to form a temporary partnership with other initiates, which often helped against other such groups looking to get ahead. Ashura became quite talented in manipulating other students, and if that didn’t work, then he would use deception, intimidation and interrogation to achieve his goals. By the end of his time as an initiate, Ashura had become a cold and ruthless individual who saw those weaker than him as mere puppets to be used and discarded at will.

=== Repository of the Rose Goddess ===
=== Sith Beginnings (17 ABY to 21 ABY) ===


<em>What is written below is subject to change.</em>
Upon graduating from the Shadow Academy, Ashura joined his [[Clan Plagueis|master's clan]] as an [[Apprentice]]. Here, he experienced life as a clan member and once more found himself under his master’s tutelage. It was here Ashura chose to follow the path of the [[Sith]], as the thirst for power was all-consuming, and the knowledge he could learn from the [[Dark Side Adept]] seemed limitless. So he prostrated and subjected himself to his master’s twisted training, sinking deeper into the [[starwars:Code of the Sith/Legends|Sith doctrine]] to survive. Years passed by, and Ashura grew in talent and power, passing one odious trial after another before meeting the requirements that saw his promotion to [[Dark Jedi Knight]]. Upon achieving his knighthood, Ashura found himself adopted into his master’s family as a type of reward; he even legally changed his name from Ashura Megos to Ashura Isradia. However, the newly christened knight did not want to remain in the same clan as his master; he desired to spread his wings and achieve his goals. He spent two years bouncing from one group to another, trying to find the right clan that would help him achieve his goals. Ashura’s thirst for power was so great it even got him into trouble; he crossed the wrong people and had to face the [[Chamber of Justice]]. Luckily, he got off with a warning, but it made the Sith more cautious from that point onwards. It was a year after his cross with the [[Justicar]] he met [[Ashia|Ashia Keibatsu]], who managed to sway him into joining her [[Clan Naga Sadow|clan]].


{{quote|There once was a maiden sleeping and as she slept and dreamed she beheld a steep and verdant hill. And around her the flaming anguish of suffering and so she descended to the hilltop to bask the huddled masses in her mercy and her solace, her beauty and her love. And thereupon the cold, suffering, downtrodden people saw her glorious mantle and at once knew passion. This passion they might have forgotten but for her beloved she left a single alabaster flower. And when the windswept flower was held aloft it's soft golden light burned away the dark ones, the Nightshades and the maiden's people saw their eternal predators wither and at once knew sanctuary.|The High Priestess Aechemaa's saga of the Rose Goddess, Act 1, Scene 4}}
=== Disciple of Sadow (21 ABY to 34 ABY) ===


The fabled Repository of the Rose Goddess in a massive, cavernous complex that culminates in a majestic funeral bier atop a raised dais of palest marble. The inky depths beneath the Great Abbey hold a somber, silent, yet majestic decay with a holistic air of a dead time.
Upon joining Clan Naga Sadow, Ashura took up one of the vacant Envoy positions. It may not have been a seemingly important position of power, but it did allow the Sith to observe how the clan operated. The politics of the Sadow were split into two groups; the [[Disciples of Sadow]] and the [[Sons & Daughters of Sadow]], who were loyal to the Heir of Naga Sadow, [[Astronicus Aurelius Sadow]]. Ashura continued his role as Envoy until eventually becoming [[Aedile]] and later [[Quaestor]] of Marka Ragnos. Naga Sadow appeared to be the perfect place to build up his power, and the Sith ensured he would find like-minded individuals within the clan: allies, comrades, but never any friends. Friends were a weakness. During this point, he started to fine-tune the process of making his “puppets,” weak-minded fools who broke to his torture, interrogation and intimidation methods. He became fascinated with “reprogramming” these broken husks into obedient and expendable pawns using malicious, mind-altering Force techniques. During this time, he earned the nickname of “Puppet Master,” which would later change to “Puppet Master of Sadow.” Ashura’s greatest achievement was during his tenure as [[Proconsul]]. While he only held the position for a couple of years, his work and accomplishments were recognised by being granted the Son of Sadow title, and he was eventually promoted for it. When his time on the clan summit ended, Ashura turned to more personal interests; this included the taking of students. He finally agreed to take on an unaffiliated Dark Jedi from the Shadow Academy; who he got was [[Aleho Ruoxf]], a spunky young Tortuga. Despite his best efforts, he became attached to the girl and she to him. The Collective would later exploit this connection to his apprentice by luring him into a trap and replacing him with an imposter. While under the Collective’s care, he was experimented with and tested to help find methods to fight against Force users. When not strapped down, he would be facing off against Collective forces in a gladiatorial-style arena for them to hone their skills. He was eventually rescued a few years later by members of the [[Keibatsu]] family, who were assigned to investigate rumours about a shadow organisation.


The craggy walls of the cave systems are etched for miles with a heavy runic script predating even ancient [[Isradia#Mardorin_.E2.80.93_The_Language_of_Vardor|Mardorin]]. Beyond all common recollection or contemporary scholarship this runic alphabet was the basis, the very cornerstone of the most ancient Vardorian magic. Knowledge of this gift of the Rose Goddess herself, an enigmatic, long-dead language, rests alone with Jonaleth Isradia, heir to the most eldritch lore of the Imperial House and coveted for generations. He had imparted many of it's secrets upon the prodigal young Alector...
=== Hiatus (34 ABY to 37 ABY) ===


Alector recited the incantations on the hallowed walls as the pair wandered into the slumbering depths of the Repository, the lined halls giving way to a massive mausoleum with crumbling statues erected in dedication to the infinite glory and wisdom of the Rose Goddess, and as the two approached the edifice, the burial sanctuary, the collected imprint of the Rose Regalia sent ripples through the crystalline ether of the Force, reverberating from the very funeral bier of the Lady of Beauty and Passion.  
Ashura immediately took Aleho to learn from the [[starwars:Matukai|Matukai]] and [[starwars:Jensaarail|Jensaarail]] to learn from them and help fine-tune her Force abilities and broaden her mind. After a year of this, he began her real training, subjecting her to painful and lethal methods, making Aleho draw out her rage and use the Dark Side of the Force as a weapon and tool for her advancements. He focused her martial prowess, lightsaber skills and advanced Force techniques. Ashura sent regular reports to the Shadow Academy regarding Aleho’s progress. While on the hiatus from Clan Naga Sadow, he missed the Collective’s invasion and takeover of the Orian system. It was during this period many things happened to the Brotherhood; it was the end of one era and the beginning of a new one. Ashura joined the newly established [[Inquisitorius]] as an Apprentice Inquisitor. His reprogrammed drones, also known as puppets, were to be used as undercover operators for the AIN. When he deemed Aleho ready for her knighthood trials, he lured his apprentice into a trap; he had arranged for a group of Jedi Knights to discover her. He watched from afar as Aleho fought off the Jedi, using all her skills she had been taught, and eventually slaughtered all of them. Much like his master had done for him, the moment Aleho’s knighthood went through, he adopted her, although she decided not to change her name legally. Some months later, he received word that Clan Naga Sadow was planning to take back the Orian system.


Alector's recollection of the events of the incantation's culmination is a hazy blur, due in part to the dream-like landscape of the surreal, ethereal burial chamber. The sarcophagus is built on an ancient and massive stone archway, itself the focal apparatus of an unspeakably ancient hypergate. 
===  TBA (37 ABY to Present) ===


The crumbling anchor, imbued with the very essence of the Force, had welled up and suffused the entirety of the the Repository in it's quantum energy. These energies, agitated by the portentous planetary alignment and the Rose Regalia as a resonating foci, caused the last vestiges of the old hypergate's relatavistic shielding to collapse, melting away and bathing the young Alector in streams of quantum energies.
TBA


The crumbling gravesite of the Rose Goddess yielded yet another portent in the unfolding prophecy of the young Dane of Tol Mustanen. The long-hidden mystical hypergate embued Alector's body, aging him years in the span of moments. The singular entity guided his conciousness led Alector to the Rose of Millions, a tiny holocron-like device which encapsulated accumulated knowledge of countless generations of priests in the service of the Rose Goddess, and with it secrets of the ancient Vardorian covenent with the Force.  
==  Character Profile ==
{{Quote|The Force is strong in this one...."|Darth Vader}}
===  Personality  ===
Sadistic, cold and cruel would be a brief description of Ashura’s personality. The man was a sociopath that liked to see his victims suffer, either through torture, interrogation or murder. He enjoys twisting people into pawns to and using them for his plans. It made matters worse that he also had a high intelligence quotient; this made Ashura calculated and meticulous when it came to planning and details.

=== Physical Description ===
{{quote|The strength of the dark side lies with the power of the individual. The Force comes from within. You must learn to draw on it yourself. I will not always be there to teach you.|Darth Bane to his apprentice}}
Ashura was an adult human with white hair and black eyes which become red when he taps into the Dark Side. Before going into any battle, he liked to apply Sith war paint to his face. The meaning of this was to intimidate and disconcert his opponents mentally. Lingering scars cover his body caused by his harsh training and from previous battles. Many of these were minor lightsaber wounds across his abdominal, vertebral and scapular during combat. The other scars on his arms and body were results of shrapnel during battle zones.

Alector Isradia is motivated by the ongoing pursuit of knowledge and to learn the hidden truths buried within; knowledge is the pathway to enlightenment and truth is the realization behind this. The achievement of enlightenment is the gateway to perfection. Alector's logic behind this is based on the two fundamental teachings of the One Path his grandfather taught him: ''True Ascension cannot be achieved unless all parts of a being are both one, and strong.'' AND ''Power is defined as "the ability to do or act" and "the possession of control or command".''

He appears to others as being formal, just, honest and well educated. His curiosity and lack of experience often gets him into mischief due to the thrill waiting to be discovered. Alector will also often pursue something with lustful determination regardless where it would lead. When interacting with others he maintains his noble upbringing and sticks to titles, ranks and surnames; unless in private where such formalities can be dropped. He was taught to behave respectfully to everyone, and expects the same treatment in return. The one thing he cannot tolerate is injustice and will often seek to bring the balance back to what he believes to be good and true.

When using the Force, Alector has different philosophical views about it than most. This is mainly because on his homeworld the Force is known as "magic" and has a mystical feel to it; although he has learned more about it over the years he still sees it as so. In combat he will try and stay out of physical confrontation due to his lack of strength and resilience, and simply use the Force to its fullest extent with telekinetics and other abilities; if he is forced into a duel than he'll bolster his strength, resilience and agility as much as possible. His greatest strength is also his greatest weakness.

It's surprising that the son of [[Ashura Isradia]] looks nothing like his father. Whilst Ashura has azure eyes and white hair; Alector doesn’t bare any of those traits. If anything, the young man looks more to be the son of [[Jonaleth Isradia]] and [[Isabelle Lutah]].

Although he is genetically Ashura's son, he is also genetically Jonaleth's grandson. The reason for this is due to something known as the ''Isradia Factor''. This is something he inherited from his father.

Alector's genetic inheritances from Jonaleth Isradia include those piercing eyes that seem to look right through people and things, and that also glow during states of heightened concentration or emotion. He also inherited Jonaleth's sharpness of features and black hair. His green eyes are something he inherited from his mother, however.

The Brakus bloodline have therefore inherited the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Precognition Precognition] ability, which later with the addition of the fighting prowess of the Konden bloodline and the training of the agoge, evolved into '''Battle Precognition'''.
 
The ability to see the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Force_Vision future] is rare among those who possess the Brakus bloodline; [[Ashura Isradia]] foresaw his own death on Tatooine but still traveled to the planet where he was killed (and later brought back to life).

The people of [[Isradia#History of Vardor|Vardor]] possessed a unique connection to their planet; because of this connection most of them are [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Force-sensitive Force sensitive] (although it is latent in most). The Iperion, the governing body of Vardor, was formed thousands of years ago as the social structure of the world and made up of two sides; Nobility ([http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Force-sensitive#Force-user Force-users]) and Landsmen.
 
House Lutah was one of those five founding Houses of the Iperion, and although it is known as a Minor House today. The Lutah bloodline still descended from the original founder's through careful breeding, genetics and training; their Force connection remains a strong as it was at the dawn of the Iperion.
 
Because of this all those who are part of the Lutah bloodline had a remarkable ability to interact and influence the Force around them. It gives them a unique connection to the Force most dont have.

Ashura Isradia Sadow was a Sith Warlord and Son of Sadow. He was also known as the Puppet Master of Sadow due to his sadistic nature of crushing the minds of his foes with the use of manipulation and malicious mind control, then turning them into willing puppets to be used and discarded at will.

Character History


"You underestimate the Power of the Dark Side."
―Darth Vader

Early Life (2 BBY to 13 ABY)

Ashura Megos and his twin sister, Atalanta, were born to Alexandros and Cassiopeia. The twins were Force-sensitive, but their parents were not; fearing the Empire might want the twins for their potential, they kept moving around. The Megos family never stayed in one place for too long, and it remained like this for years until one fateful day. Their transport vessel malfunctioned and had to make an emergency landing on Tython. It seemed that a Dark Side Adept had caused the failure; he had sensed the twins’ Force signatures and laid a trap. The Megos family escaped into the Tython wilderness. At the same time, the other passengers died; they were tracked down and killed too. Only the twins were kept alive; however, while Atalanta fled, Ashura was left behind and fell into his parents’ murderer's hands. The Dark Side Adept took the boy and raised him on Tython; Ashura’s upbringing forced him to forget about his parents and sister. As far as he knew, Tython was his home. His childhood consisted of twisted games and harsh lessons training him in the Force core abilities. Ashura also learned how to read and write, to survive and hunt in the wilderness, and basic medical techniques to dress his wounds. A pattern emerged: the boy would spend time training in the necessary Force abilities, being taught basic lore regarding the Dark Side of the Force, then leave on his own for months on end as survival training. It was during his teenage years that his time on Tython was coming to an end. He learned about the organisation his master was attached to and was deemed ready for his indoctrination.

Brotherhood Indoctrination (13 ABY to 17 ABY)

As an initiate, Ashura spent the majority of his time at the Shadow Academy, an institution that takes Force-sensitive individuals as potential members and physically and mentally twists them into Dark Jedi, then with proper training and testing watches as the most ruthless of them sacrifice the weaker ones to further progress down the path of the Dark Side. Ashura thrived in this environment, and it seemed his upbringing had prepared him for life at the academy. In his second year, he learned the basics of lightsaber combat and more advanced Force techniques that heavily focused on the use of the Dark Side of the Force. He became fascinated with Old Republic military history. The tactics they used, the battles, the victories and the defeats they suffered were all very educational to him. Ashura knew the only way to succeed in the academy was to grow stronger, even if that meant killing to get ahead. It was only natural to form a temporary partnership with other initiates, which often helped against other such groups looking to get ahead. Ashura became quite talented in manipulating other students, and if that didn’t work, then he would use deception, intimidation and interrogation to achieve his goals. By the end of his time as an initiate, Ashura had become a cold and ruthless individual who saw those weaker than him as mere puppets to be used and discarded at will.

Sith Beginnings (17 ABY to 21 ABY)

Upon graduating from the Shadow Academy, Ashura joined his master's clan as an Apprentice. Here, he experienced life as a clan member and once more found himself under his master’s tutelage. It was here Ashura chose to follow the path of the Sith, as the thirst for power was all-consuming, and the knowledge he could learn from the Dark Side Adept seemed limitless. So he prostrated and subjected himself to his master’s twisted training, sinking deeper into the Sith doctrine to survive. Years passed by, and Ashura grew in talent and power, passing one odious trial after another before meeting the requirements that saw his promotion to Dark Jedi Knight. Upon achieving his knighthood, Ashura found himself adopted into his master’s family as a type of reward; he even legally changed his name from Ashura Megos to Ashura Isradia. However, the newly christened knight did not want to remain in the same clan as his master; he desired to spread his wings and achieve his goals. He spent two years bouncing from one group to another, trying to find the right clan that would help him achieve his goals. Ashura’s thirst for power was so great it even got him into trouble; he crossed the wrong people and had to face the Chamber of Justice. Luckily, he got off with a warning, but it made the Sith more cautious from that point onwards. It was a year after his cross with the Justicar he met Ashia Keibatsu, who managed to sway him into joining her clan.

Disciple of Sadow (21 ABY to 34 ABY)

Upon joining Clan Naga Sadow, Ashura took up one of the vacant Envoy positions. It may not have been a seemingly important position of power, but it did allow the Sith to observe how the clan operated. The politics of the Sadow were split into two groups; the Disciples of Sadow and the Sons & Daughters of Sadow, who were loyal to the Heir of Naga Sadow, Astronicus Aurelius Sadow. Ashura continued his role as Envoy until eventually becoming Aedile and later Quaestor of Marka Ragnos. Naga Sadow appeared to be the perfect place to build up his power, and the Sith ensured he would find like-minded individuals within the clan: allies, comrades, but never any friends. Friends were a weakness. During this point, he started to fine-tune the process of making his “puppets,” weak-minded fools who broke to his torture, interrogation and intimidation methods. He became fascinated with “reprogramming” these broken husks into obedient and expendable pawns using malicious, mind-altering Force techniques. During this time, he earned the nickname of “Puppet Master,” which would later change to “Puppet Master of Sadow.” Ashura’s greatest achievement was during his tenure as Proconsul. While he only held the position for a couple of years, his work and accomplishments were recognised by being granted the Son of Sadow title, and he was eventually promoted for it. When his time on the clan summit ended, Ashura turned to more personal interests; this included the taking of students. He finally agreed to take on an unaffiliated Dark Jedi from the Shadow Academy; who he got was Aleho Ruoxf, a spunky young Tortuga. Despite his best efforts, he became attached to the girl and she to him. The Collective would later exploit this connection to his apprentice by luring him into a trap and replacing him with an imposter. While under the Collective’s care, he was experimented with and tested to help find methods to fight against Force users. When not strapped down, he would be facing off against Collective forces in a gladiatorial-style arena for them to hone their skills. He was eventually rescued a few years later by members of the Keibatsu family, who were assigned to investigate rumours about a shadow organisation.

Hiatus (34 ABY to 37 ABY)

Ashura immediately took Aleho to learn from the Matukai and Jensaarail to learn from them and help fine-tune her Force abilities and broaden her mind. After a year of this, he began her real training, subjecting her to painful and lethal methods, making Aleho draw out her rage and use the Dark Side of the Force as a weapon and tool for her advancements. He focused her martial prowess, lightsaber skills and advanced Force techniques. Ashura sent regular reports to the Shadow Academy regarding Aleho’s progress. While on the hiatus from Clan Naga Sadow, he missed the Collective’s invasion and takeover of the Orian system. It was during this period many things happened to the Brotherhood; it was the end of one era and the beginning of a new one. Ashura joined the newly established Inquisitorius as an Apprentice Inquisitor. His reprogrammed drones, also known as puppets, were to be used as undercover operators for the AIN. When he deemed Aleho ready for her knighthood trials, he lured his apprentice into a trap; he had arranged for a group of Jedi Knights to discover her. He watched from afar as Aleho fought off the Jedi, using all her skills she had been taught, and eventually slaughtered all of them. Much like his master had done for him, the moment Aleho’s knighthood went through, he adopted her, although she decided not to change her name legally. Some months later, he received word that Clan Naga Sadow was planning to take back the Orian system.

Character Profile


"The Force is strong in this one....""
―Darth Vader

Personality

Sadistic, cold and cruel would be a brief description of Ashura’s personality. The man was a sociopath that liked to see his victims suffer, either through torture, interrogation or murder. He enjoys twisting people into pawns to and using them for his plans. It made matters worse that he also had a high intelligence quotient; this made Ashura calculated and meticulous when it came to planning and details.

Physical Description

Ashura was an adult human with white hair and black eyes which become red when he taps into the Dark Side. Before going into any battle, he liked to apply Sith war paint to his face. The meaning of this was to intimidate and disconcert his opponents mentally. Lingering scars cover his body caused by his harsh training and from previous battles. Many of these were minor lightsaber wounds across his abdominal, vertebral and scapular during combat. The other scars on his arms and body were results of shrapnel during battle zones.
