| [[Ashura Isradia Sadow]] was a [[Sith Warlord]] and [[Son of Sadow]]. He was born on [[starwars:Corusant|Corusant]] before the fall of the [[starwars:Empire|Empire]]. His father was an Imperial Dark Side Adept serving the Emperor, while his mother was an exiled Dathomir Witch a long way from home. This [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] was trained in the use of [[starwars:The Force|the Force]] from an early age, first by his father and then by his mother.
| | '''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. |
| | |
| As a young man he studied among the [[starwars:Matukai|Matukai]] and [[starwars:Jensaarai|Jensaarail]]: it was during this time Ashura become proficient in the unique power the Jensaarai called ''ballistakinesis''. He would actually become well known for his use of it during his time in the [[Dark Brotherhood|Liberated Brotherhood]]. His reasons for joining the Brotherhood was to learn more about [[Sith]] philosophy, abilities, and practices which he had initially learned during his time with the Jensaarai. Here he became apprenticed to the [[Krath]] [[Dark Side Adept]] [[Jonaleth Isradia]]. The two transcended the normal bond between a master and his apprentice in something far deeper, and this led to Ashura joining the [[Imperial House Isradia]].
| |
| | |
| During his time with the Brotherhood, Ashura had drifted through many different clans. However it would be the [[Disciple of Sadow|Disciples of Sadow]] where he truly flourished. Here he served with distinction in various roles: [[Deputy Governor General (Dlarit Corporation)|military governor]], [[Dlarit Security Force Ranks#Marshal Commander|soldier]], diplomat, tactician and [[Commissar (Dlarit Corporation)|commissar]]. After having served his [[Clan|clan]] with loyalty and dedication, Ashura was eventually [[Clan Title|elevated beyond Disciple]] by the [[Heir of Sadow]] at the end of the [[Ninth Great Jedi War]].

| | === Early Life (2 BBY to 13 ABY) === |
|
| |
|
| Ashura’s heritage with [[starwars:The Force|the Force]] began with his parents. His father Jared Konden was an [[starwars:Dark_Side_Adept#Imperial_Dark_Side_Adepts|Imperial Dark Side Adept]] who served the Emperor as one of his [[starwars:Emperors_hand|Hands]]. While his mother Miya Brakus was a [[starwars:Witches of Dathomir|Daughter of Allya]] banished from her clan for conceding to an evil act, and using “night spells” (aka the Dark Side) to take her revenge.
| | 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. |
|
| |
|
| It has not been recorded how Miya left [[starwars:Dathomir|Dathomir]] or how she met Jared. What is known is the two of them began to work together on Konden missions. One thing led to another and Miya ended up sleeping with Jared, nine months later their son was born. His birth went hand in hand with the destruction of the first Death Star. Konden saw the boy as a means to an end. He took the child and left Miya.
| | === Brotherhood Indoctrination (13 ABY to 17 ABY) === |
|
| |
|
| Jared named the boy “Ashura” and kept him a secret from the Emperor; it was likely he would turn out to be a Force-user. Young Ashura grew up on [[starwars:Corusant|Corusant]], although the first six years of his life would be spent within the four walls of his father apartment, hidden away, alone. In 6 ABY Jared took Ashura offworld due to the New Republic possibility of regaining the Capital City.
| | 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. |
|
| |
|
| However during the New Republic invasion, Miya took her revenge on Jared and killed him. Ashura watched with fascination as his father was killed before him; within all the chaos no-one noticed. What was one less Imperial to the Rebels? Miya was not an Imperial however, and she was able to take Ashura offworld. Having never met his mother till now, the young boy could sense a connection between them: mother and son. The two of them were left to wander the galaxy, neither had a home anymore. Miya had been raised to see men as slave labor or for breeding; because of this she saw as less then what he would mean to her if he had been born female. However that didn’t stop her from teaching him everything she knew.
| | === Sith Beginnings (17 ABY to 21 ABY) === |
|
| |
|
| By the time he was thirteen Ashura had been trained daily in the art of war, and could use both his muscles and the Force to aid him in combat. His knowledge of the Force was largely defined in the form of "spells"; however he remembered how his father used the Force differently. This was something Ashura wanted to learn too, although he would never have a chance to with his mother calling the shots.
| | 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]]. |
|
| |
|
| However at fifteen he was on [[starwars:Dantooine|Dantooine]] with mother, when their camp came was ambushed by primitive [[starwars:Dantari|Dantari]]. Ashura had to resort to “night spells” to kill them, saving his mother’s life in the process. As Dathomiri culture demanded, Miya let her son follow his own path from that day forward. He had saved her life. With the galaxy to explore, Ashura bid his mother farewell and set off.
| | === Disciple of Sadow (21 ABY to 34 ABY) === |
|
| |
|
| Within the course of six years, Ashura had spent time learning from the [[starwars:Matukai|Matukai]] and the [[starwars:Jensaarai|Jensaarai]]. He learned how to purge illness and poison from his bodies, and even could raise or lower hid body temperature to survive in hot or cold environments. He also learned how to mask his presence in the Force, and use a unique power called ''ballistakinesis'' (which involved accelerating small, harmless objects at lethal speeds). Ashura began to become more familiar with the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] and the [[Sith]]. The young [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] saw more possibilities with the Dark Side then the Light Side; he had since a little boy felt the darkness slowly grown within. He needed to go somewhere to learn more then was available to him. Perhaps it was by chance he learned of a Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
| | 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. |

| [[Image:Cpnewlogo.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Clan Plagueis]]
| |
| In early 22 ABY, Ashura joined the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]] as an [[Initiate]]. He arrived at [[Antei]] where he attended the [[Shadow Academy]]. He achieved the rank of [[Apprentice]], and was transferred to [[Clan Satal Keto]] (which later merged with [[Clan Exar Kun]] to become [[Clan Plagueis]]). The Dark Jedi was promoted through the ranks. Ashura eventually became the Apprentice to Dark Adept Jonaleth Isradia. The [[Journeyman]] would undergo difficult trials and tasks, and would also be subjugated to his Master’s experiments (a side affect being some minor alterations in his appearance).
| |
|
| |
|
| The young Sith was permitted to became a [[starwars:Noble|noble]] of the Iperion after being welcomed into the [[Imperial House Isradia]] – He was Ashura Isradia now. After an interesting incident on Vardor, Ashura became the Viscount of Tol Mustanen, as well as gaining a Bondswoman by the name of Isabelle Lutah (a former noble herself). There relationship started off rocky but the two eventually fell in love, which her becoming pregnant and giving birth to his [[Alector Isradia|son]] in mid 23 ABY.
| | 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. |
|
| |
|
| After he constructed his lightsaber in 23 ABY, Ashura underwent the final trial with his Master. His success was rewarded and rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]] was bestowed upon him. Knight Isradia returned to Vardor. During the time spent there he became a Baron as well as married his lover Isabelle. He eventually replaced Erin Isradia as Exarch.
| | === TBA (37 ABY to Present) === |
|
| |
|
| However after a few years Ashura wanted to get involved once more with the Dark Brotherhood; his Master had been a member for years and held quite a legacy due to him helping to create the Clan once known as Exar Kun. Ashura also knew he could learn more about the Dark Side, the Sith, and countless more whilst with a Clan. After a lot of think he decided not to rejoin Clan Plagueis but join Clan Arcona instead. He wanted to expand himself within a new Clan, new surroundings and challenges (i.e. like being an Envoy and Rollmaster).
| | TBA |
| [[Image:Carc-logo.jpg|200px|left|thumb|Clan Arcona]]
| |
| He would eventually replace his friend Odin as Aedile of House Oriens Obscurum, and it was here that his first test of his leadership skills became apparent. It wasn't long before Ashura left the Journeymen class for the Equite class, as he was promoted to the rank of Sith Warrior. Ashura would end up leaving Arcona some time after Selene disappeared in Tarentum space, and Odin leaving to find out what happened to her. Isradia deciding to leave the Clan also tied in with him wanting to spare Arcona the shame that was about to befall him. Ashura found himself charged by the Chamber of Justice for something he had done whilst a Journeyman. He was shocked to learn of his mistake and held himself accountable and took responsibility into his own hands.
| |
|
| |
|
| His trial was overseen by the Justicar personally (who at that time was Dark Jedi Master Kir Katarn). Upon being found guilty he took the burden of what he done to heart, no punishment the Justicar could give would even compare to the punishment Ashura bestowed upon himself. He had brought shame upon his old Clan, Plagueis, and went into voluntary exile, never to return to the Clan until he had redeemed himself. The Rogue Dark Jedi wandered from place to place; it led him to joining Clan Tarentum but after a few weeks his wandering continued. It was during this time he rescued a teenage Force-user by the name of Sakura from the EHDB. He trained her for a while in hopes to redeem himself a little.
| | == 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. |
|
| |
|
| Ashura spent a lot of time thinking on his mistake and about his future with the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. He came very close to leaving the Brotherhood and returning to Vardor forever, but an encounter with Ashia Keibatsu and Macron Goura led the Sith Warrior to joining Clan Naga Sadow. Isradia decided this was this last chance at redemption, a chance to really learn from his mistakes and become someone within the Brotherhood. | | === Physical Description === |
| === Sith Rising ===
| | 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. |
| [[Image:CNS.jpeg|200px|right|thumb|Clan Naga Sadow]]
| |
| As a member of House Ludo Kressh, Ashura set out to once again show his talents and it wasn't long before he was appointed Clan Envoy. The Sith Warrior was driven by an insatiable lust that fuelled the Dark Side within. Redemption became a driving focus for the Sith, it changed Ashura in ways he never thought possible, and so too would war.
| |
|
| |
|
| A month after he joined the Clan that the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Antei and the Eighth Great Jedi War started. Clan Naga Sadow and rest of the Clans in the Brotherhood had been at Antei at the time: this had been a tactical strike by the Far Outsiders, and it resulted in Antei falling to them. Naga Sadow also received a lot of causalities (although Ashura wasn’t one of them). The Knight Class Envoy of Naga Sadow fought hard and had to resort to deeds he never dreamed of doing (e.g. setting off the fire suppression systems on the ''Wandering Soul'' sending many crew and young Dark Jedi to their death with most of the Vong warriors onboard).

|
| |
|
| War in some way helped Ashura mend the hole in his heart on what he had done, he would never forget his mistake but through the strife of the war he felt he was redeeming himself. Redemption at a price of millions of lives, of endless suffering and death, Yuthura Ban had been right after all.
| | == DJB Facts == |
|
| |
|
| Upon fleeing Antei and returning to the Orian system, the Clan had to deal with the True Brotherhood threat that had taken over. Ashura was able to play a minor role in helping the Clan defeated the false Brotherhood, as such was awarded the rank of Senior Commander (a rank within the Special Operations department; a cover for the Dark Jedi to get involved more in the Corporation). Commander Isradia was also appointed Commissar on the Star Destroyer ''Harbinger''.
| | === Goals === |
| | '''[[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]''' |
|
| |
|
| As Clan Envoy, Ashura excelled at his duties (even if the Society of Envoys were in thier waning days). The Warrior took up the vacant position within House Marka Ragnos; he became the Sith Commander of Ravana Squadron so to get the training team back into shape. It was this among his other duties that earned Ashura the status of Knight First Class by the Knight Commander of the Brotherhood (in agreement with his Clan Summit). However that was just the beginning.
| | * To have earned the rank of [[Dark Side Adept]]. |
| | * To have earned the title of [[Sith Lord]]. |
| | * To have made a difference to the [[Dark Brotherhood]] as a whole. |

|
| Trevarus Sadow was appointed Quaestor after the last one went AWOL, and it was Ashura who was to become the Dark Jedi Master's Aedile. This was the highlight of the young man's career, working with the Oracle much like his father had done years before. It was a golden time for the House, but it was hard work, although Ashura welcomed it on top of his Envoy duties. Trevarus became an inspiration for him (so his eventual betrayal would wound Ashura). It wasn't long after becoming Aedile that Ashura was promoted to the rank of Sith Battlemaster
| | '''[[Clan Naga Sadow]]''' |
|
| |
|
| However this team wasn't destined to last as Trevarus was appointed Consul for the second time. Ashura replaced him as Quaestor and began to really get involved with the Dlarit Corporation and the Disciples of Ragnos. Knowing the Society of Envoys wasn't soon to close, Ashura retired as Clan Envoy but kept the title of Knight First Class.

|
| === Betrayal === | | === Notable Positions of Leadership === |
| After months leading House Marka Ragnos on his own, the Battlemaster selected Faeril Munlear (a former Envoy of his) as Aedile. The Knight showed potential and Ashura wanted to her reach it. It was at this point Ashura was studying Darth Bane's Rule of Two and he decided to incorporate it for the House Summit: one to embody the power (Quaestor), and the other to crave it (Aedile). Faeril would later leave House Marka Ragnos and become Quaestor of House Ludo Kressh; Alexander Anderson would replace her as Aedile.
| |
| [[Image:The_Secret_Apprentice_by_Daennika-fairuse.jpg|200px|left|thumb|Quaestor Ashura Isradia]]
| |
| Ashura became close friends with many members of the Clan, including the Atemas. However after Jade was wounded by her husband, Ylith, and sent to him by her brother-in-law, Tyren. Isradia decided to help Knight tap her potential like he was doing with Faeril. Knowing from personal experience, the Quaestor made his Battleteam Leader endure hardship as Yuthura Ban's teaching about strife would help Jade grow. In the end Jade unlocked her potential and reached Equite status with the rank of Priestess.
| |
|
| |
|
| It was also around this point that he became an agent of the Iron Throne in the form of a Magistrate to the Grand Master. The Battlemaster’s assignments from the [[Dark Lord of the Sith]] were always classified, and the Sith never spoke of what he done, apart from saying it was a true privilege to do what he did for [[starwars:Darth|Darth]] [[Sarin]].

| For months Ashura had been getting a “bad feeling” as if something was amiss within the Clan, something hidden, out of side. He decided to ask Sakura to be his “eyes” and “ears” on the Harbinger. The girl was not part of the Dark Brotherhood and her cover was maintained as a Subcommander in D-SOG. Events within the Clan had slowly been leading up to something ever since the arrival of Grand Master Paladin. The Battle of Telos, the assistance Clan Naga Sadow gave to Clan Arcona when their home system was taken over by the Yuuzhan Vong. It was all pieces in a grand puzzle.

| The truth about Dark Jedi Master Trevarus Caerick was finally revealed for what it was. It seemed that Trevarus and his apprentice, Darth Vexatus, planned to go to Lehon and gain the Heart of the Force to receive ultimate power, and take over the galaxy. To the Clan it simply meant one thing and one thing only: Trevarus and Vexatus had betrayed their Clan and the Brotherhood at whole. Everything anyone ever knew about that was a lie.

| Fortune would smile upon Ashura as he and rest of the Clan plotted to stop a man everyone had looked up too and respected, especially him. Trevarus had taken the Harbinger, the same Star Destroyer that months before Sakura had been placed on posing as a Sub-Lieutenant. Although she was able to slow the duo down she was inevitably captured and tortured by Vexatus.

| As the Clan arrived at Lehon to stop the two Elders, Ashura, feeling Sakura’s pain, made his way from the Final Way to the Harbinger to save her before anyone could stop him. He expected to find the two Lords of the Force aboard, but found Trev’s seneschal, Eosara Goratis. Trevarus and Vexatus had already departed for the surface of Lehon so it seemed Eosara would have to be brought to justice in his master's place, or so how Ashura believed.

|
| The two of them dueled and although Eosara wasn't a Force-user, he was stronger and better trained than Ashura. In fact the hulk of a man had been enhanced and trained by Trevarus to kill Dark Jedi. Eosara landed a heavy blow that seriously wounded Ashura; he would have even killed the Quaestor if Ashura hadn’t sacrificed his custom made lightsaber to explode (which Goratis wasn’t aware of when he caught it after the Battlemaster threw it at him). Eosara wounded fled and left Ashura to die of his injuries. It seemed that Sakura was actually the one who saved Ashura, as she was able to get help. Saving his life made her even with him and after that she left his service and joined Clan Naga Sadow

| The extent of Ashura's injuries kept him from active duty; he still couldn’t believe how easily he was beaten, as if all his training meant nothing. It was enough for him to rethink a few things. Ashura remembered what the quasi-religious belief system his Master used, and how this One Path was able to eliminate weakness by focusing on each one until they were no more. Ashura spent the time healing from is wounds by studying this and learning the truth within the power of its words. When he returned to active duty Ashura had a whole new way of thinking, this would in fact serve the Clan well as he was soon appointed Proconsul.

|
| The Clan Overlord had temporary assumed the post of Proconsul to help bring stability, the Clan had somewhat healed from the betrayal of the two Sons of Sadow for Ashura to assist Ashia with the running of the Clan. Darth Vexatus was now dead, as most assumed to believe, and so was Trevarus (as the Ascended Dragon, Shan Long replaced the Krath Master completely).

| The new Proconsul was entitled to pick any [[Delta-class Advanced Commando|DAC]] available to serve as his Adjutant; Isradia settled on the clone known as [[Delta-2]] (aka Major Besh) due to his outstanding service record. With all his time now being spent on [[Sepros]], [[Aleho Ruoxf|Ashura's apprentice]] had to be shuffled about from her home on [[Tarthos]] to come to the [[New Sadow Palace|Temple of Sorrow]] to still receive her training. However Ashura wasn't going to leave his apprentice unprotected, he assigned [[Delta-10]] (aka Lieutenant Jenth) as Aleho's Ruoxf close protection officer; the young Togruta was still just a [[starwars:Dark Jedi|Dark Jedi]] in-training. The Battlemaster eventually took an older apprentice, a Miralukan [[Jedi Hunter]] by the name of [[Joseph Skirata]], and assigned Jenth the task of training Joseph whilst on [[Tarthos]]; the Miraluka was part of the [[Obelisk]] [[Order]] making the clone the best choice to train him in all manner of weapons and combat techniques. Skirata had to travel with Ruoxf to Sepros to receive his training in [[starwars:The Force|the Force]].

| [[The Battle of Inos]] was something Ashura had a hand in staging. The [[Clan Summit]] helped the Overlord Tron Sadow to work his deception by leaving the Orian system. What was supposed to be a staged war game turned into a bloody mess. In the end [[Darth]] [[Sarin]] wasn't please with what had happened. None but the [[Star Chamber]] knew of Tron's motive. Consul Ashia Keibatsu resigned after the feud and [[Robert Sadow]] was selected by Tron to [[Consul|represent]] [[Clan Naga Sadow|his Clan]] on the [[Dark Council]]. Bob was also a [[Son of Sadow]] which meant he was totally devoted Naga Sadow.

| It turned out that although Ashura was not tainted, he still had spent a time learning from Trevarus when he served as his [[Aedile]] back when Dark Jedi Master assumed the position of Quaestor for the second time. Trevarus even supported Ashura's appointment as Quaestor of Marka Ragnos. The Battlemaster had learned from the [[Elder]] how to become a powerful leader. It was something Ashura respected the man for and like the rest of the clan felt betrayed; the Sith understood the nature of it however. Isradia had committed himself to healing the [[Clan]] and working with the new Consul. Ashura actually worked well with Bob, the pair set forth to rebuild bridges and relationships among the members: to bring back the <em>Golden Age</em> of Clan Naga Sadow. Out of the heroes from the feud, Ashura selected recently promoted [[Krath Priest]] [[Alexander Anderson]] (his former Aedile) to become his [[Black Guard]]. He was also impressed when Kalei became Black Guard to Aedile Tsingtao Ming.

| Like all those who follow the quasi-religious belief system known as the '''One Path'''; Ashura seeks to eliminate himself of all weaknesses and to bring mind, body and spirit into one. Surprising this is something he has been doing for years, but the teachings of his Master are what has enabled him to bring it all together.

| To this end Ashura follows the tenets of the One Path:

| *Be one in Mind, Body and Spirit.

| *Always seek new experience, adversity and knowledge, for in those things we grow.

| The man no longer seeks to limit himself to one teaching; to become a slave to it. His true weakness had always been that of his mind, weakness he sought to eliminate through the teachings of the [[Sith]] and the understanding of leadership. It was through the teachings of Darth Bane did Ashura adapt tools of his Order to his own purpose when seeking to rule among the Dark Brotherhood; patience, cunning and secrecy were tools that would help him to strengthen his mind.

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.
