| | The current storyline picks up following the Sixteenth Great Jedi War, which saw the forces of the Brotherhood face off against [[The Children of Mortis]] in an ethereal plane of existence. This conflict ended with the Brotherhood’s victory, and the Children retreating to lick their wounds. |
| | |
| | === Resource Rush === |
| | The months following the Sixteenth Great Jedi War were some of the most peaceful that the Brotherhood has ever seen. It was a time of rebuilding forces, training, strengthing, and independence for the clans. |
| | |
| | The Brotherhood’s closest allies, [[The Severian Principate]] had spent the last years growing rapidly, as their peaceful approach gained more and more popularity. In addition to their trio of core leaders, a new body, The Council of Systems, had formed so that each of their 16 systems had a voice. |
| | |
| | However peace only goes so far, and many raider attacks occurred in their systems. Their reliance solely on the Brotherhood for defense had to come to an end. In conjunction with the Brotherhood, a project was put into place to gather rare resources, research new technologies, build new ships and weapons, and train the next generation of soldiers. Both would prosper from this growth and stability. |

| | |
| | The Children of Mortis had vanished, seemingly into thin air. Haunted by taunts from [[Telaris_"Mav"_Cantor|predecessor]] the Grand Master [[Evant_Taelyan|Darth Nehalem]] ordered the construction of a great gateway,that, utilizing the power of force-imbued crystals, would lead the way to fight the Children, and allow him to destroy the former Grand Master at the same time. |
| | |
| | Upon completion, the entire forces of the Brotherhood, and its seven clans ventured into the [[Ethereal Realm]], where time, gravity, Force abilities, and even the long dead followed new rules. Darth Nehalem found the former Grand Master and abandoned his post leading the Brotherhood’s forces to attempt to kill him. |
| | |
| | Hoping to use the conflict, the Children’s leader, the Father, began a ritual to destroy the chain of the Force, a manifestation of the binding of the Force and the real world together. Attempting to sacrifice Avitus Oligard in the process, it was a race against time. |
| | |
| | Ultimately the Brotherhood prevailed. The Father’s new body was killed, and his spirit returned to the crystalline skeleton that housed it for so many ages. Avitus Oligard was saved and allowed to leave in peace. The Children of Mortis retreated into shadow. The Brotherhood retreated, sealing the still dueling Darth Nehalem and Telaris Cantor in the ethereal realm, fates left to the will of the force. |
| | |
| | Dacien Victae was appointed the new Grand Master of the Brotherhood. |

| The current storyline delves into the Fourteenth Great Jedi War, as the Collective strike out at the Brotherhood once again.

|
| |
|
| === Prelude: Trouble on Tenixir === | | == Databank: Brotherhood Universe == |
|
| |
|
| After months of discussion, The [[Severian Principate]] has requested the Brotherhood take on a number of their criminal population, including captured [[Collective]] agents from the events in the [[Lyra-3K-a|Lyra system]]. During the prisoner transfer, the Collective created a riot on the Principate’s prison planet of [[Tenixir]]. Brotherhood forces were sent to restore order and prevent the Collective from escaping. Additional information was relayed to the Brotherhood from prisoners within the complex itself, not wishing to be killed in the conflict.
| | The following data bank provides a quick reference to information about persons, locations, and organizations of interest that show up in the Brotherhood storyline. |
|
| |
|
| The Collective succeeded in freeing some of their scientists from the facility, but just barely. Their remaining forces were either killed in recaptured as the Brotherhood quickly shut down the prison riot. Due to the Brotherhood’s swift actions, the relationship between the Principate and the Brotherhood improved even more. | | === The Brotherhood === |
| | ==== The Arx System ==== |
| | [[File:Arx-system.png|left|130px]] |
| | The '''[[Arx System]]''' is located in the depths of Wild Space, far away from the core worlds and isolated from the galaxy at large. The planet Arx now serves as the current seat of power for the Brotherhood. The Council oversees the Brotherhood from the headquarters known as ''The Ascent'', which is located in Eos City. |
|
| |
|
| As an act of good faith for their assistance, many of the prisoners were released by the Brotherhood. This group banded together under the lead of Rasha Hawee, becoming [[The Tenixir Revenants]]. This group has a strong hatred of the Principate, and due to the severity of the Brotherhood’s action on Tenixir is very distrustful.
| |
|
| |
|
| While the Collective was focused on freeing their people, the Brotherhood launched their own rescue mission, recovering the captured Deputy Grand Master, Evant Taelyan, alongside three of the clan representatives that were lost in the Lyra system. Heavily tortured and in need of medical attention, they returned home to the [[Arx_System|Arx system]].
| |
|
| |
|
| === Chapter I ===
| |
|
| |
|
| Evant Taelyan was brought before the [[Grand Master]], and mind probed. The Grand Master viewed Evant’s long and painful torture at the hands of the Collective before decreeing that Taelyan could return to duty as he saw fit. Taelyan’s hatred would now sustain him. The Grand Master decided it was time to put his plans for a powerful Sith Empire into motion.
| |
|
| |
|
| In Collective Space, advancements had been made by the Technocratic Guild in augmenting their soldiers with an AI consciousness. These AI-enhanced soldiers work as one cohesive mind, making them very dangerous. Rath Oligard, leader of the Collective, ordered an attack on the Brotherhood with these upgraded soldiers, now that the “broken fool” was back home.
| | ==== The Council ==== |
| | [[File:Darkcouncildblogo.png|left|130px]] |
| | '''The [[Dark Council|Council]]''' serves the Grand Master of the Brotherhood, and governs the various elements of the Brotherhood including, training, resources, intelligence, and the military. There are ten positions, including the Grand Master. They work alongside the [[Justicar]] as the overseers for the entire Brotherhood. |
|
| |
|
| The new [[Headmaster|Headmistress]] Ciara learns of some research into the Collective’s plans with AI and the long-forgotten Ordu Aspectu’s research. At the same time Evant, having recovered from his capture arrived on the Shadow Academy’s space station, ''Nesolat Platform''. Shortly after, the Collective began its attack, hoping to capture the station and use it to bypass the planetary shields of Arx below.
| |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
| === Chapter II ===
| |
|
| |
|
| The Clans of the Brotherhood arrived to push back the Collective, facing off in separate theaters of war, Nesolat Platform, [[Mattock Station]], and the [[Godless Matron]]. Under siege by experimental weaponry, however, Brotherhood-aligned forces took massive damage, resulting in the destruction of the shield gate above Eos City.
| |
|
| |
|
| Onboard Nesolat Platform, Evant Taelyan reached the core systems, leading an arsenal of Collective forces against his own people. Utilizing the stations ejection and planetside landing capabilities, Evant led the Collective to Arx’s surface.
| | ===== Grand Master ===== |
| | [[File:Dacienheadshot.png|left|130px]] '''[[Dacien Victae|Lord Dacien Victae]]''' serves as the current [[Grand Master]]. The Grand Master occupies the '''The Iron Throne''', which is the seat of power for the Brotherhood. They control the Council, as well as the combined [[Iron Forces]]. Following a long career on the Council, Dacien Victae seized control after abandoning Darth Nehalem in the Ethereal Realm. |
|
| |
|
| Additional Collective battlegroups arrived in the Arx system, including the Skylla, with Rath Oligard himself onboard. The arrival of these additional forces saw the destruction of the Brotherhood’s Resurgent-class Destroyer, the Endeavor.
| |
|
| |
|
| Betrayed by his right hand, Telaris Cantor assured the Fist that there were additional plans in motion to prevent the Brotherhood’s destruction. The Clans of the Brotherhood were instructed to make planetfall and prepare to fight against the Collective in key locations vital to holding the system.
| |
|
| |
|
| Elsewhere, having received a mysterious message from the Grand Master, the Seneschal left his normal duties to retrieve some old allies to fulfill the Grand Master’s plan.
| |
|
| |
|
| === Chapter III ===
| |
|
| |
|
| With the Collective entrenched in the city of Eos, Telaris Cantor finally enacted his plan. Evant Taelyan arrived to kill his former master, and ensure the destruction of the Collective once and for all. Telaris used this opening to drain life from Evant to power an ancient Sith ritual. The ritual worked as a form of Battle Meditation, envigorating the Brotherhood forces while breaking down the will of the Collective. But even despite his great power, the Grand Master couldn't sustain the ritual. Asking for help from the clans to focus and combine their energies, the ritual was finally able to take hold.
| | ===== Deputy Grand Master ===== |
| | [[File:AtraHeadshot.png|left|130px]] |
| | '''[[Thane Skotos|Thane "Atra" Skotos]]'' (also known as Darth Renatus)' serves as the current [[Deputy Grand Master]], right hand of the Grand Master. Following his terms as both Regent and Justicar, Darth Renatus helps maintain the Brotherhood's control over its space. |

| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | ===== Master at Arms ===== |
| | [[File:Howladerheadshot.png|left|130px]] |
| | '''[[Howlader]]''' serves as the current [[Master at Arms]]. He is rarely seen in his office, but his work always seems to get done. Overseeing the ceremony and record keeping of the Brotherhood’s dossiers, Howlader’s allegiance seems to be more to the position he holds than to any one leader or even his home unit. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | ===== Seneschal ===== |
| | [[File:James-wiki.png|left|130px]] |
| | '''James Lucius Entar''' serves as the current [[Seneschal]] of the Brotherhood. The enigmatically eccentric, ever-endearing Seneschal heads up the Brotherhood’s Research and Development and also maintains sovereignty over cyber security thanks to his unique artificial intelligence, Construct [[Dbbot|dbb0t]]. James has a penchant for riddles and rarely involves himself in political matters, claiming to serve the Brotherhood and the Galaxy at large. He is most often left to his own devices out of both respect and fear. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | ===== Headmaster ===== |
| | '''[[Rhylance]]''' serves as the current [[Headmaster]] of the Brotherhood. He oversees the [[Aurora Collegium of Sciences]] and the [[Shadow Academy]] on the Grand Master's behalf. Despite not being a Force-user himself, he aids the teaching for Force-users and Non-force-users alike while researching the many items deemed needed by the Council. |
| | |
| | ===== Herald ===== |
| | '''[[Malfearak Asvraal]]''' serves as the current [[Herald]] of the Brotherhood. As the new Herald and head of the Shroud Syndicate, the Malfearak works hard to maintain the strong grip the Brotherhood has made in the underworld. |
| | |
| | ===== Voice of the Brotherhood ===== |
| | [[File:IdrisHeadshot.png|left|130px]] |
| | '''[[Idris Adenn]]''' serves as the current [[Voice]] of the Brotherhood. Known as an outgoing and accomplished Bounty Hunter, Idris Adenn has brought an air of flash and style to the otherwise shadowed and secretive Inquisitorius. The Mandalorian takes great pride in the efforts of the Brotherhood's intelligence agency. |
|
| |
|
| As the ritual began in earnest, Rath Oligard, along with many of his upper lieutenants arrived to kill the Grand Master, who remained unmoving as he focused on the ritual. Rath Oligard was shot by his own, Chelsie Crimson, before he was able to kill Telaris. With Rath dead, and their forces being decimated, the Collective retreated from the Arx System.
| |
|
| |
|
| === Epilogue ===
| |
| As the Collective retreated, Atyiru arrived at the Dark Ascent, followed shortly by the Seneschal, who had been looking for her. The Grand Master's instructions had specified that key individuals would be present at the ascension of his Sith Empire, Evant Taelyan among them. Barely clinging to life, Atyiru was able to bring Evant back from the cusp and into the world of the living.
| |
|
| |
|
| In the Cor'neria system, Rath Oligard awoke after weeks asleep. Following his murder at the hands of Chelsie Crimson, his cousin, Avitus, drained the life from "Sparks" and used her life energy to bring the Collective Leader back to life. Enraged at finding out what brought him back, Rath clawed out his own eyes before being subdued by medical staff. Avitus fled Collective space, taking with him the crystals the Collective had been trying to collect for years.

| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
|
| A decisive blow has was struck in the ongoing feud between the Brotherhood and the Collective. With the death of the [[The_Collective:_Technocratic_Guild|Technocratic Guild]] leader known as Daggo Mouk—and the loss of [[Meridian_Prime_space_station|Meridian Prime Space Station]]—the Collective have scaled back their harassment of the Brotherhood. Their withdrawal gave the Dark Council some much-needed breathing room to reinforce their hold on their respective territories. The continued conflicts with the Collective—combined with meeting the material needs of the Dark Council's new homeworld, fleet, and personnel—stretched the Regent's coffers thin.
| |
|
| |
|
| In the hopes of reaching a trade deal with a new partner, the Grand Master created an opportunity to meet with a new organization that could stand to be an invaluable partner for the Brotherhood. They call themselves the [[Severian Principate]].
| |
|
| |
|
| With the leadership of the Brotherhood shifting gears, Evant Taelyan was appointed Deputy Grand Master. His first task was to assemble a group of delegates from the seven respective Clans, and take them to the [[Lyra-3K-a]] system to meet with representatives from the [[Severian Principate]].
| |
|
| |
|
| As the meeting began, so did the attacks within the Lyra system. Falsely identifying as Brotherhood forces, The Collective attacked the Severian Principate hoping to completely destroy any chances of an alliance. Several Collective agents arrived at the meeting hoping to sway the Principate in their favor. Deputy Grand Master Evant Taelyan sent out an encrypted, coded message across the Advanced Inquisitorius Network (AIN) calling on all Brotherhood personal to lend aid and prevent the alliance from falling through.
| |
|
| |
|
| The Brotherhood managed to provide evidence that they were not the attacking force within the system, and order was eventually restored. While a tenuous alliance was reached between the Principate and the Brotherhood it came at a heavy cost. Deputy Grand Master Evant Taelyan, as well as all seven of the clan representatives, were taken hostage by the Collective.
| |

Current Storyline
The current storyline picks up following the Sixteenth Great Jedi War, which saw the forces of the Brotherhood face off against The Children of Mortis in an ethereal plane of existence. This conflict ended with the Brotherhood’s victory, and the Children retreating to lick their wounds.
Resource Rush
The months following the Sixteenth Great Jedi War were some of the most peaceful that the Brotherhood has ever seen. It was a time of rebuilding forces, training, strengthing, and independence for the clans.
The Brotherhood’s closest allies, The Severian Principate had spent the last years growing rapidly, as their peaceful approach gained more and more popularity. In addition to their trio of core leaders, a new body, The Council of Systems, had formed so that each of their 16 systems had a voice.
However peace only goes so far, and many raider attacks occurred in their systems. Their reliance solely on the Brotherhood for defense had to come to an end. In conjunction with the Brotherhood, a project was put into place to gather rare resources, research new technologies, build new ships and weapons, and train the next generation of soldiers. Both would prosper from this growth and stability.
Previous Storyline: Fictional Recap
The Children of Mortis had vanished, seemingly into thin air. Haunted by taunts from predecessor the Grand Master Darth Nehalem ordered the construction of a great gateway,that, utilizing the power of force-imbued crystals, would lead the way to fight the Children, and allow him to destroy the former Grand Master at the same time.
Upon completion, the entire forces of the Brotherhood, and its seven clans ventured into the Ethereal Realm, where time, gravity, Force abilities, and even the long dead followed new rules. Darth Nehalem found the former Grand Master and abandoned his post leading the Brotherhood’s forces to attempt to kill him.
Hoping to use the conflict, the Children’s leader, the Father, began a ritual to destroy the chain of the Force, a manifestation of the binding of the Force and the real world together. Attempting to sacrifice Avitus Oligard in the process, it was a race against time.
Ultimately the Brotherhood prevailed. The Father’s new body was killed, and his spirit returned to the crystalline skeleton that housed it for so many ages. Avitus Oligard was saved and allowed to leave in peace. The Children of Mortis retreated into shadow. The Brotherhood retreated, sealing the still dueling Darth Nehalem and Telaris Cantor in the ethereal realm, fates left to the will of the force.
Dacien Victae was appointed the new Grand Master of the Brotherhood.
