==Early Life==
==Early Life==
[[File:Nfolgai - Sadow1.jpg|120px|thumb|left|Utapau Tharess' Homeworld]] Tharess was born on the planet Utapau 3 years before the establishment of the Empire, 23 years before the Battle of Yavin to a family of Tradesmen in the capital of Pau City. For most of his life his mother tried to hide his Force Sensitivity worrying that it would attract the attention of the Jedi and Separatists during the Clone War and later the Empire after the fall of the Republic, however he eventually began to teach himself how to control his power even if he could not use it much. Tharess' seemingly normal life came to an end when the Imperial Inquisitors found him whilst he was walking to his home from the docks. As it turned out, the Empire had been suspicious of him for some time and they go the proof needed when a small probe caught him moving heavy crates with the Force.  Upon approaching him they drew their lightsabers and demanded he go with them, initially refusing as he did not know what he had done wrong. In order to keep their true intentions hidden they arrested him under the charge of stealing imperial property, though the charge was not false since he did give food to a homeless Utai woman when he was not supposed to, it happened weeks before. When they threatened to arrest is mother as well, he complied, he was taken before a court and was found guilty, Tharess was subsequently taken to prison where he was tortured for days before making a nearly unsuccessful escape attempt.

His childhood was hard as it became almost impossible to have any real friends and conceal his power at the same time, eventually he simply cut himself off from the rest of his people and became home schooled. As Balis grew it became easier to control and hide his powers, though every now and again he would use it in secret. When he became old enough Balis left Utapau and traveled the galaxy, learning about the Force, unafraid of the risks. For many years he walked the worlds strong in the Force, places where his presence could be hidden from the Empire.
==Time After Prison==
 
For the longest time Tharess had for the longest time stayed away from the core world, staying on the fringes of the mid rim and in outer rim territories to better evade the Inquisitors, only returning to Utapau sparingly and only for short times. He would hop from world to world doing temporary jobs, though eventually he came to stay on the planet Nar Shaddaa for a time, working a law enforcer. By the time Tharess had lost interest in the job the Empire had been largely defeated by the Alliance to Restore the Republic. It was at this time that he began to travel the galaxy for some time again though he was far less restricted and ventured into the core regions of the galaxy. He even got his own ship from Naboo, the Erilese.

==Caedo Torim==
 
Born on the planet Mandalore in the year 10 ABY , unlike the majority of the population of his people at the time who had largely abandoned the old Mandalorian path for a more peaceful way of living, Caedi was born into Clan Torim one of the few remaining clans still devoted to the old ways. From a very young age he was taught how to be good at killing, the training his father Javin would making him go through sometimes became hard to endure. Due to his mother dying giving birth to him, his father's harsh treatment and despite what he was taught when he was a child, he became very detached from his family and clan. He over time grew an intense hatred of his father and when he turned 17 he tried to leave, this infuriated his father, resulting in a very quickly escalated fight. At the end of the battle it was Caedo who was victorious, he had slain his father buy blasting him in the heart with his own weapon, the aftermath of the fight led to turmoil as the rest of the clan argued among themselves about who was going be in control now that their leader was dead and his child refused to replace him. Eventually they turned on each other, ultimately the clan split into smaller groups who went off to start over somewhere new. Caedo became a bounty hunter as many mandalorians did, this took him to many remote places and eventually brought him to Nar Shaddaa where he met Tharess, his future enemy. It was when Tharess attempted to rescue one of Caedo's hits, that they crossed each other for the first time. After Tharess had nearly killed him with a powerful torrent of lightning, he was incapacitated and Tharess put him in prison for attempted murder, the entire time he was in prison all he talked about was the "Witch" that tried to kill him(Presumably Tharess) but no one believed him. They only ever met one other time which was on Naboo where he attempted to assassinate Tharess whilst discussing a trade deal with Theed Hangers to build him a ship, it was after his meeting with the Corporation that he struck, nearly hitting Tharess in the shoulder while he was in one of Theed's many gardens. After realizing he failed he attempted to flee using his jet pack only to be ripped right out of the sky and thrown to the ground by his target, it would seem that again he found himself being touched by a familiar sensation as for a brief moment there was a bright flash and then violent tendrils of purple energy engulfed his body, and then he blacked out. He then reawakened in a prison cell where he would spend the rest of his life.
==The Dark Crusade==
Tharess had upon arrival to the Brotherhood assisted minorly in the Brotherhood's efforts on [[Ziost]]. Though he always kept it to himself, he always envied those who got to battle more of the One Sith than him.
==The Erilese==
A J-Type Diplomatic Barge which are usually reserved for Naboo Royalty, Tharess purchased it from the Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps for his personal use along with 2 TC-3PO unit protocol droids. Tharess with the help of his husband, has re-outfitted the vessel with a better hyperdrive and have installed weapon systems, also a personal meditation chamber has been created from one of the parlor rooms. The ship itself has a crew no larger than 3 people, on the ship there are astromechs used for maintenance, 2 pilots and a Communications Operator.

Tharess Crestar tells it like he sees it, when he thinks it; and he doesn't try to sugar coat what he says. When Tharess Crestar does things, he makes sure everything is done correctly, no matter how long it takes.

Early Life

Utapau Balis' Homeworld

Balis was born on the planet Utapau 3 years before the establishment of the Empire, 23 years before the Battle of Yavin to a family of Tradesmen in the capital of Pau City, though his mother never told him what happened to his father it is assumed he is dead. For most of his life his mother tried to hide his Force-Sensitivity worrying that it would attract the attention of the Jedi and Separatists during the Clone War and later the Empire after the fall of the Republic. His childhood was hard as it became almost impossible to have any real friends and conceal his power at the same time, eventually he simply cut himself off from the rest of his people and became home schooled.

When he became old enough Balis left Utapau and traveled the galaxy, learning about the Force, unafraid of the risks. For many years he walked the worlds strong in the Force, places where his presence could be hidden from the Empire.

Time in the Brotherhood

Shadow Academy

Balis obtained knowledge of the Brotherhood through hearsay, he saw this group as an opportunity to expand his powers. Spending most of his time in the Shadow Academy he has accumulated 4 degrees and a vast understanding of alchemy and exotic biology. In addition to his interest in the mystical secrets of the force, during his studies he has also gathered a vast understanding of many different species and their cultures based on information at the Shadow Academy. During his time in the Brotherhood, Balis also gained 2 Dark Crosses, 4 Crescents, 5 Cluster of Fire, 25 Cluster of Earth and has obtained 4 Seals. After he had accumulated enough power Balis decided to assist his clan in the assault on Ziost. His time among people of other paths have given him much to think on about the subject of moral perception. Even though he is a Dark Jedi in truth, he considers himself spectrum aware and acknowledges that there are infinite sides of the Force.

While this often ensures Balis is more fair and well-respected amongst his peers, sometimes others do not have time to discuss this in a committee. Balis tells it like he sees it, when he thinks it; and he doesn't try to sugar coat what he says. When Balis does things, he makes sure everything is done correctly, no matter how long it takes. This means there are frequent delays in Balis' work, but it's usually done right, at least.
