| | ===The Phantom Assembly=== |
| | |
| | Not long after the founding of Tyranus, the events preceding the [[The Zsoldos Incursion]] began to unfold. While the House was still young, they would travel to [[Zsoldos]] alongside their parent clan, fighting to take control of the planet. Along with the rest of Plagueis, however, they would be called away on the cusp of victory in order to defend the [[Arx System]] in the battle that would come to be known as the [[Fourteenth Great Jedi War]]. During the conflict, Gaius Julius Ceasar, one of the founders and the then Aedile of House Tyranus, would be killed by the Plagueian Dread Lord. Not long after, the House’s recently appointed Quaestor, [[Liandry Cataa]] would rise to become the Dread Lord’s Wrath, leaving the House without leadership. |
| | |
| | The Dread Lord brought in a Sith, [[Shimura Keibatsu]], from outside the Clan to take control of House Tyranus as Quaestor. [[Marcus Armani]] would rise to take the position of Aedile, and along with the Quaestor, would work to keep the House stable as it continued to serve Plagueis. It was this leadership that lead the House during the [[starwars:Killik|Killik]] invasion of Aliso, working with the [[Ascendant Legion]] and [[Valneikian hive]] to repel the invaders. The invasion, orchestrated by the [[Phantom Assembly]] had only been a distraction, however. House Tyranus was not able to mobilize quickly enough to prevent the Assembly from destroying [[The Circle]]. |
| | |
| | While Tyranus succeeded in their mandate of protecting Aliso, the symbolic defeat weighed heavily on the Clan as a whole, resulting in yet another change in leadership. Both Aedile and Quaestor resigned, leaving the House to find its own way. [[Taranae Rhode]] left [[Opress]] to take control of Tyranus as the Hand of Dread, it’s Quaestor. She elevated a Tyrant from within the House, [[Khryso Mallus]] to serve as her Aedile. The House undertook orders from the Dread Lord to salvage what remained of the Circle while Tyranus’ new summit worked to solidify and reinvigorate the House. |
| | |
| | In mid 39 ABY, during the [[Rite of Supremacy: Escalation]], Taranae Rhode stepped down from the role of Quaestor and was replaced by Plagueian summit veteran [[Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn]]. Around the same time, a second house, House Ventress, was formed within Clan Plagueis. Due to this, the balance of power within the Clan shifted, creating a new dynamic for House Tyranus to adjust to. |
| | |
| | ===Battleteam Talzin=== |
| | |
| | House Tyranus continued diligently serving Clan Plagueis despite losing many senior members to House Ventress. Not long after Ventress’ formation, [[Battleteam]] [[Opress]] was brought into the rival House’s fold. With this move, Ventress had gained a powerful asset that granted them additional power and influence. Tahiri knew this put Tyranus’ once unshakeable position in danger of becoming second fiddle to the burgeoning Ventress, so she began planning a response. After several meetings and discussions with the Dread Lord, she began to pull together the resources that would be necessary for Tyranus to host a Battleteam of their own. |
| | |
| | [[Selika Roh]], the current Dread Lord of Clan Plagueis, was able to provide personnel in the form of a small group of defectors from Opress. Led by Sinya Ani, this crew was interested in taking a different approach to their work than Opress’ standard operating procedure. Little time was wasted in finalizing the formation of the Battleteam, with the pieces falling into place as if preordained. Battleteam Talzin was born and, although they did not yet pack quite the same punch as Opress, their potential for growth was more than satisfactory for the summit. |
| | |
| | While Talzin appeared to be a boon towards the balance of power between Tyranus and Ventress, its sudden appearance and formation created friction within the Tyranus summit. Early into 40 ABY, Khryso Mallus rose from his position of Aedile, ousting and replacing Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn as Quaestor. The House slowly began to find its footing, preparing to push forward into a new, fortuitous road of development. However, any plans that were underway were interrupted by the [[Fifteenth Great Jedi War]]. Aliso itself came under attack by [[The Children of Mortis]] and so Tyranus was called into action alongside the rest of the Clan to defend their homeworld. Despite their efforts and eventual victory in defeating the invaders, Aliso was ravaged and entered a period of recovery. |
| | |
| | Not long after, halfway through 40 ABY, Khryso Mallus, having perceived Tyranus’ failure to properly defend Aliso as partially his fault, decided to step down as Quaestor. [[Raiju Kang]] was selected by the Dread Lord to succeed Khryso. With the new leadership came another change in the direction Tyranus was moving. Talzin was shuttered as Raiju prepared to move ahead in his own vision of the House. Surprisingly, however, after only a couple months, Raiju was forced to step down as well. [[TuQ'uan Varick]], one of the [[di Plagia]] and a former high-ranking official of Battleteam Talzin stepped into the void to take over as Quaestor. |

- "Will is Everything"
- ―House Tyranus' motto
Tyranus is a House within Clan Plagueis established by Ronovi Tavisaen, TuQ'uan Varick, Scudi Ferria, and Gaius Julius Caesar in the aftermath of the Thirteenth Great Jedi War in 37 ABY. Originally replacing Karness Muur and Ajunta Pall as the clan's sole house, Tyranus served as the main arm of Plagueis, with its members trained to serve the Dread Throne in all economic and military matters.
History
Founding
House Tyranus was founded in 37 ABY. In the aftermath of a series of military operations against the Collective after the end of the Thirteenth Great Jedi War, the Dread Lord of Clan Plagueis, Ronovi Tavisaen, reviewed and analyzed the proceedings of the clan and its subordinate houses. Dissatisfied with the organization and functionality of houses Karness Muur and Ajunta Pall, she decided to streamline them into a single house: House Tyranus. Knowing that this house would need strong leadership, she, along with her Wrath, decided to approach the leadership of Karness Muur, Scudi Ferria and Gaius Julius Caesar. As leaders appointed by Tavisaen, they were a fitting duo to lead the new house.
With the knowledge that they would be called upon to lead a new house, Caesar and Ferria discreetly began looking for a home. Korada Monastery had served them well, but if the house was to move forward, then it wasn’t fit to hold the majority of the clan. They settled on a site located equidistant from The Pinnacle and Aliso City to best serve the needs of the clan.
House Tyranus was given the task of protecting Plagueis economic and military interests on Aliso. Their role was akin to that of the Jedi Order during the reign of the Galactic Republic, and their guardianship was intended to be one more means to help safeguard their adopted home against new threats.
The Phantom Assembly
Not long after the founding of Tyranus, the events preceding the The Zsoldos Incursion began to unfold. While the House was still young, they would travel to Zsoldos alongside their parent clan, fighting to take control of the planet. Along with the rest of Plagueis, however, they would be called away on the cusp of victory in order to defend the Arx System in the battle that would come to be known as the Fourteenth Great Jedi War. During the conflict, Gaius Julius Ceasar, one of the founders and the then Aedile of House Tyranus, would be killed by the Plagueian Dread Lord. Not long after, the House’s recently appointed Quaestor, Liandry Cataa would rise to become the Dread Lord’s Wrath, leaving the House without leadership.
The Dread Lord brought in a Sith, Shimura Keibatsu, from outside the Clan to take control of House Tyranus as Quaestor. Marcus Armani would rise to take the position of Aedile, and along with the Quaestor, would work to keep the House stable as it continued to serve Plagueis. It was this leadership that lead the House during the Killik invasion of Aliso, working with the Ascendant Legion and Valneikian hive to repel the invaders. The invasion, orchestrated by the Phantom Assembly had only been a distraction, however. House Tyranus was not able to mobilize quickly enough to prevent the Assembly from destroying The Circle.
While Tyranus succeeded in their mandate of protecting Aliso, the symbolic defeat weighed heavily on the Clan as a whole, resulting in yet another change in leadership. Both Aedile and Quaestor resigned, leaving the House to find its own way. Taranae Rhode left Opress to take control of Tyranus as the Hand of Dread, it’s Quaestor. She elevated a Tyrant from within the House, Khryso Mallus to serve as her Aedile. The House undertook orders from the Dread Lord to salvage what remained of the Circle while Tyranus’ new summit worked to solidify and reinvigorate the House.
In mid 39 ABY, during the Rite of Supremacy: Escalation, Taranae Rhode stepped down from the role of Quaestor and was replaced by Plagueian summit veteran Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn. Around the same time, a second house, House Ventress, was formed within Clan Plagueis. Due to this, the balance of power within the Clan shifted, creating a new dynamic for House Tyranus to adjust to.
Battleteam Talzin
House Tyranus continued diligently serving Clan Plagueis despite losing many senior members to House Ventress. Not long after Ventress’ formation, Battleteam Opress was brought into the rival House’s fold. With this move, Ventress had gained a powerful asset that granted them additional power and influence.

TuQ'uan Varick, one of the di Plagia and a former high-ranking official of Battleteam Talzin stepped into the void to take over as Quaestor.
Organization
As with the typical houses of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, House Tyranus is ruled by a single Quaestor (known as the Hand of Dread in official parlance) and an Aedile serving as a second in command. These individuals offer basic directives and objectives, serving to coordinate the House's efforts.
The House's namesake and patron is Count Dooku, former apprentice to Darth Sidious, who had turned to the dark side after becoming disillusioned with the Jedi Order. His manipulation and calculations during the Clone Wars are viewed by members of the house as both honorable and brilliant.
Battleteam Talzin
- Main article: Talzin
Battleteam Talzin was a Battleteam operating within House Tyranus of Clan Plagueis. Formed in 39 ABY by Selika Roh and Sinya Ani, Battleteam Talzin is a special forces unit that specializes in subterfuge and manipulation and is the first and only Battleteam within House Tyranus. It was disbanded in late 40 ABY.
Headquarters
- Main article: Fort Dooku
After the establishment of House Tyranus was agreed upon by the Plagueian summit, it was decided that the House would need a facility to act as its headquarters. The leadership of Plagueis called upon the aid of the Valneikian hive to plan and build the facility. A site was chosen outside Aliso City to further spread the influence of the Ascendant Clan across the frontier world.
A castle roughly five square kilometres in area, Fort Dooku was erected quickly in 37 ABY. Surrounded by walls several meters thick and a dozen meters tall, the open-air courtyard is filled with many different structures. At the heart of the castle is the Tyranus Citadel, with various structures of military and civilian importance filling out the rest of the castle grounds. Throughout Fort Dooku are several shield generators, which allow the facility to be entirely shielded should the need arise. In addition, there are auto-turrets located along the top of the walls, ready to defend House Tyranus. The structure and design of the fort aim to emulate the style common throughout Aliso City, combining the frontier and industrial aspects that give the city its flavour. The Fortress is designed so that its residents could potentially spend their entire lives within its walls (as long as they have the necessary supplies) should it prove necessary. The summit of House Tyranus rule from the Tyranus Citadel, a centrally-located spire within the castle's walls while the walls also hold living quarters, a military staging area, a market sector and an entertainment district.
