'''[[Morgan B. Sorenn|Morgan Bartholomew Sorenn]]''' is the founder of the [[Shroud Syndicate]], crime boss, former [[Herald]], and former [[Deputy Grand Master]].
 
She is a [[starwars:Nar Shaddaa|Nar Shaddaan]] by birth, spacer by choice and mercenary by necessity who leads a life devoid of restrictions or bylaws. The only loyalty she holds is the one that is useful to her, and not many deserve that privilege. She is a troubled individual with many dark and terrible secrets. Her involvement with the [[Dark Brotherhood]] veers into the illicit and the dangerous, but it is a lifestyle she is accustomed to, a lifestyle where she can tread her path and live free.

'''Kiast''' is a terrestrial planet in the Nilgaard sector of the Outer Rim territories inhabited by a subspecies of Sephi, who rule the planet from their highborne [[starwars:Skyhook|skyhooks]] and floating cities. Its inhospitable surface, and deadly sulfuric atmosphere surrounding it, are contrasted by clear blue skies above the thick cloud cover.
 
A harbinger of chaos that serves herself first, so much so that she forfeits the [https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Rule_of_Two Rule of Two]. In that sense—despite the era that she was born in—'''[[Alaisy Tir’eivra]]''' is a very traditional [https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Sith Sith], following the code as they did before the [https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Darth_Bane Sith Lord Darth Bane] made his mark on the ancient Order.  
 
Her harrowing, enigmatic appearance demands attention, while Tir'eivra's tenebrific aura tends to fill the space around her. She has garnered a reputation of utter ruthlessness and occupies a diplomatic niche in situations where fear and intimidation are key.


Recorded history on Kiast began with the settling of the planet, some 2000 years ago by Gand settlers. Finding the planet’s atmosphere more manageable than Type I atmospheres, they settled the toxic surface in an attempt to start several mining colonies. No permanent settlement was ever created, however, the Gand stayed on the surface until this day, ferrying materials and ore from the surface and trading it with the galaxy.
Strict Imperial upbringing on an isolated, toxic remnant world forced the female Human to adapt and put her emerging talent in [[Sith Alchemy]] to use, animating objects and experimenting with materials to find a balance between practicality, lethality, and beauty.

'''[[Kasiya]]''' is a small mineral moon located in the Caelus System whose surface was covered with a thin layer of ice over its reddish soil. Following the Elysian Incident, solar flares from the Caelus Star had an effect on the atmosphere of Kasiya which caused the development of several different biomes that had not existed prior to the event. With the natural effect that the Pomojima shard had on kyber crystal growth, Taldryan scientists utilized it in these newly formed biomes and found that it increased their development exponentially with sometimes dangerous temperature shifts in localized areas. Since then, the experiments were halted pending further investigation. Overall the moon continued to grow and develop into a more colonizable world even after that.

=== April 2023 - [[Vatali Empire]] ===

[[File:KaltaniAnasaye.jpg|150px|left]]
[[File:Envoy-corps-logo-whitebg.png|140px|left]]
Born from the bloodlines of the [[StarWars:Sephi/Legends|Sephi]] monarchs, the Vatali Empire was founded to extend the reach of the monarchy into the [[Kiast System]]. Mirroring Sephi civilization, it is ruled under a royal lineage of monarchs that were entrusted to rule the Kiast System from [[Kiast (Planet)|Kiast}}.


Derived from a bloodline of royal lineage, the monarchy is comprised of successors and precursors from the Anasaye line of heirs to the Astral Throne. The firstborn of the ruling monarch traditionally inherits the throne after the death of its precursor, or in rare cases, when the former monarch retires from the Astral Throne. While this has provided a clear line of succession for centuries, firstborn twins are a troublesome burden to the line of succession and has resulted in at least one instance where the heir was left unclear.
Guided by the [[Exarch]], the '''[[Envoy Corps]]''' tackles bounties, contracts, and missions that burnish the Brotherhood's reputation among the galaxy's power players. Renowned for their expertise and shrewdness, Envoys deploy in diverse pairs or teams, drawing upon specialists from all seven clans and their associated allies. With conditional advisement from the [[Emissary]] or [[Herald]], the Envoy Corps seeks to bolster the Brotherhood's standing with its current and potential allies while countering propaganda being spread by their adversaries.
 
The Envoy Corps was formed out of a need to better establish the Brotherhood's efforts in building a positive image on the greater stage of the Galaxy, while also bridging relationships between he Clans and the Council. While it might look like a public-relations gambit on the surface, the Council put their full weight and support behind the Envoy Corps and trusted that it would become a vital key to their strategy of success.

'''[[Sivall Zoria]]''', born Zosi'val'ria, is a quiet and overall unassuming Chiss female from [[House Galeres]] of [[Clan Arcona]]. A [[Disciplines#Shadow|Shadow]] with a medic focus, Sivall can be heavily neutral, but tends to lean more towards the light. Originally born on an unknown desert planet, she was sold to a human couple on [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]]. After being abandoned, she was recruited into the brotherhood by '''Alexandyr Douve''' and quickly climbed the ranks to become one of the Houses' [[Aedile]]s.

January 2023 - Morgan B. Sorenn

Morgan Bartholomew Sorenn is the founder of the Shroud Syndicate, crime boss, former Herald, and former Deputy Grand Master.

She is a Nar Shaddaan by birth, spacer by choice and mercenary by necessity who leads a life devoid of restrictions or bylaws.

Her involvement with the Dark Brotherhood veers into the illicit and the dangerous, but it is a lifestyle she is accustomed to, a lifestyle where she can tread her path and live free.


February 2024 - Alaisy Tir’eivra

A harbinger of chaos that serves herself first, so much so that she forfeits the Rule of Two. In that sense—despite the era that she was born in—Alaisy Tir’eivra is a very traditional Sith, following the code as they did before the Sith Lord Darth Bane made his mark on the ancient Order.

Her harrowing, enigmatic appearance demands attention, while Tir'eivra's tenebrific aura tends to fill the space around her. She has garnered a reputation of utter ruthlessness and occupies a diplomatic niche in situations where fear and intimidation are key.

Strict Imperial upbringing on an isolated, toxic remnant world forced the female Human to adapt and put her emerging talent in Sith Alchemy to use, animating objects and experimenting with materials to find a balance between practicality, lethality, and beauty.
