'''Nihlus Vexrii''' is a Force Disciple affiliated with [[Clan Taldryan]]
'''Zxyl Bes'uliik''' is a non Force-sensitive Mandalorian who served as [[Regent|Regent of the Brotherhood]].
 
 
== Biography ==
=== Before Darkness ===
 
Not much is known about Nihlus Vexrii's time before the Brotherhood. He was born on his species homeworld Umbara just prior to the destruction of the [[starwars:Death Star II|DS-2 Battle Station]] and raised there by an [[starwars:Imperial|Imperial]] science officer - a weapons developer in service to Umbaran-Imperial technical cooperation initiative. His mother died during childbirth, leaving him to be raised in a strict doctrine by his father Xil, who believed that one day a new [[starwars:Empire|Empire]] would emerge.


Prior to leaving Umbara, Nihlus spent time as a soldier with the Umbaran military. There, he received training on anti-Jedi tactics and slugthrower weapons. Vexrii served with the Umbaran military for only a few missions - receiving anti-Jedi and slugthrower training - before being offered a chance by an agent of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood to join the powerful organization.  
= Biography =
== Pre-Brotherhood History ==
Birth, younger years. Mother leaves early on, father is captured by a bounty hunter and never seen again.  
== The Syndicate (35 ABY - 38 ABY) ==
=== Bounty Hunting ===
Includes several contracts: assassinating a politician, retrieving an escaped slave, killing a rogue Hutt, serving as muscle for a Corellian street gang, and hunting a fellow bounty hunter. Meets Idris Adenn, fellow Mandalorian.


=== Incursion ===
== Clan Taldryan (38 ABY - 40 ABY) ==
[[Image:Lyspair.jpg|left|thumb|225px|Antei's moon, Lyspair]]
=== Brotherhood Indoctrination ===
Joins Clan Taldryan, still bounty hunting. Befriends the Consul at the time, Rian Taldrya.


Vexrii enlisted in the Brotherhood. Following tradition at the time, he was dropped off via shuttle on the surface of [[Lyspair]] and made the journey to the [[Shadow Academy]]. The Test of Lore was administered and passed, with Nihlus being indoctrinated into the Brotherhood as a [[Journeyman]]. All of his possessions were surrendered to the coffers of the [[Dark Brotherhood]] and started his new career with nothing - the bottom of the food chain. Returning to Taldryan led the Umbaran to attend and graduate the [[Taldryan Military|Taldryan Military's]] training institute on [[Karufr|Karufr]]. Vexrii transfered to the ''[[Dark Prophet]]'' as part of one of her [[starwars:starfighter|starfighter]] wings while he continued his studies. Immediately upon joining the crew of the vessel they attended a military ceremony meant to honour the winners of the recent [[Rite of Supremacy]] - ''[[Second Darkness]]''.
=== Proconsul & Praetor to the Regent ===
Ascends to Proconsul shortly after beginning to serve as Praetor to the Regent of the Brotherhood. Constructs Valyr. Fellow Mandalorians Appius Wight and Ankira move to Taldryan. Zxyl immediately disapproves of Appius and labels him dar'manda.


Forces from several of the [[Dark Brotherhood|Brotherhood]]'s clan's attended the awards ceremony meant to celebrate the three victors, held just outside [[The Shroud]]. As the festivities were underway and recognition being given by the [[Sith]], an alien race devoid of the [[starwars:Force|Force]] commanding a fleet more than twice the size of the present forces launched an all out assault on the Brotherhood vessels. With this the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] begun, the ''Dark Prophet'' sacrificing herself as a retreat order into The Shroud was given by the leadership.
=== Son of Taldryan ===
Named a Son of Taldryan during a private ceremony and adds "Taldrya" to his name, helps lead the Clan during the events of GJW: XIV.


Nihlus was one of several pilots able to successfully launch their craft before the ''[[starwars:Victory-class Star Destroyer|Victory]]''-class [[starwars:Star Destroyer|Star Destroyer]] suffered catastrophic hull failure and vented her innards into space, and successfully made a return to the ''[[starwars:Venator-class Star Destroyer|Venator]]''-class Star Destroyer ''[[Katarn]]'' which itself had suffered incredible damage and had almost failed to make the retreat. During the trip back to Antei the Umbaran served as an engineer aboard the limping cruiser until it was able to regroup with other forces. Later on, the [[Dark Lord of the Sith]] [[Aristan Dantes]] would call for a complete retreat from Antei, leading a full abandonment of the planet and the Shadow Academy on it's moon.  
=== Sister Discovered ===
Zxyl discovers he has a half-sister from his mother who is a trained Nightsister, finds out he is Dathomirian. Their mother died many years ago.


During the aftermath of the assault and loss of the Brotherhood center of power, Nihlus returned with his fellow Dark Jedi back to the Kr'Tal System. A short time after the Umbaran pilot returned the ''[[Cotelin-class Star Destroyer|Cotelin]]''-class Star Destroyer ''[[Justice|Justice]]'' was commissioned by Taldryan's leadership. Vexrii's next posting would be the ''Justice'', his potential as a pilot not un-noticed.
== The Council (40 ABY - Present) ==


[[File:Karufr.jpg|right|thumb|225px|Karufr, home of Clan Taldryan]]
=== The Master of Credits ===
Nihlus spent quite some time aboard the ''Cotelin''-class destroyer, branching out slowly as a Dark Jedi and improving his abilities with practice. He occasionally assisted the engineers by lending an extra hand on repairs and maintenance when he could spare the time. A large portion of his time however was spent inside the flight simulators, practicing his skills in an effort to perfect them. The Umbaran quickly became known as a reputable squadron mate and enjoyed a rather relaxed position aboard the cruiser even as [[Operation: Swift Justice]] was underway.  
Named Regent of the Brotherhood by Darth Nehelam following the disappearance of Anubis Taldrya into the Unknown Regions. Takes over management of Arx Capital Exchange's assets, taking a direct role in running the corporation through a corporate proxy.

Settles into his role as Regent, negotiates access to a unique market that brings a wide variety of rare and exotic [[starwars:Kyber crystal|Kyber crystals]] into Brotherhood space, resulting in the opening of the Eos Exotic Kyber Bazaar.
