| | Soon after arriving on Aurora, the home planet of the [[EH]], he decided to enlist in the EH Armed Forces. Taking a shuttle to the Platform Daedalus he took his Armed Forces Entrance Exam. Thinking he would just join the grunts on the ground as an enlisted man, he was surprised as he was pulled aside and asked if he would like to join the pilots program and accept a commission as Sub-Lieutenant. He immediately agreed and was transferred to the [[Imperial]] Star Destroyer Colossus, into Omicron Squadron. It was here he met someone who would prove to a valuable ally for years to come, [[Darknyte]]. Even though he was Stephens' Squadron [[Commander]] the two became friends. Over the course of a year Stormfyld left the Hammer for places unknown, and Stephens eventually became Squadron Commander of Omicron. After serving his Tour of Duty, he temporaraly resigned his commission to complete testing for admittance into the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. |

Several months passed by and he wanted more. He was contacted by [[House Satal Keto]] summit in regards to the position of Aedile for the House and he transferred there.

The newly seated Quaestor once again took volunteers from the House for Aedile and Stephens stepped up, and was re-chosen. However his performance as [[AED]] according to him was lackluster. He had seen his QUA leave his position due to internal fighting within the clan, and had himself lost interest in the Brotherhood.

| | === Independent House Revan === |
| | After securing the Cocytus System, DS was approached by Dark Adept Raken about aligning with himself, former Grand Master Aristan Dantes, and a few other Sith in the creation of a new unit for the Brotherhood. At this time there are no records that can be found beyond what few memories that DS has of his time in House Revan. He states that when the unit was disbanded members went back to their original units with much information meant to be used to destabilize their enemies. After the disbanding DS found himself on a chartered shuttle to New Tython seeking redemption for the crimes he had committed against the Jedi in the past. After a period of time they accepted him into their Order, where he introduced himself as Seraphol Ceartas. |

| Stephens was born in the city of Bela Vista on Corellia. As most small boys did he enjoyed playing such games as cops and robbers, and as he grew older his facination with being a cop never died out. Soon after his 18 birthday he enlisted into the Corellian Security Forces (CorSec), and graduated from detention school with honors and took a job working in a Detention Facility near his hometown of Bela Vista. He always did well in his job especially in knowing where to look in contraband searches, or what to ask a person when interrogation after fights and such. Even to the point he caught his Major's eye and recieved a promotion for investigative work on the street.
| | == Characteristics == |
| | Seraph can be distinguished by his shaggy brown hair and thin beard. When he does choose to shave he can be picked out by a long, thin scar, running from his upper lip to his cheekbone on the left side. He is tall, almost 2 meters, and large, athletic build. His weight is just over 99 kilograms. Stephens is fond of wearing a brown in color worn down pair of paints, a nerf-wool long sleeved shirt under a fading brown synth-leather vest and form fitting slip on combat boots. He finishes his dress with a low slung holster belt that holds a 6 round revolving slugthrower pistol. He will also rarely be seen without his widebrim nerfwool fedora hat. He carries his Lightsaber and Shock Baton on the inside of his forearm bracers. |

| His performance in the field never slackened and while he enjoyed the attention he was recieving from fellow co-workers, he was recieving attention from a source he knew he didnt want to be involved in. The Diktat at the time was not a kind man, always looking to strengthen his grip on the system. He had his eye sat on Stephens as a possible Force-user, one that he could train for his own intentions. Recieving tips from his co-workers he left the planet, not wanting to enter New Republic space for fear they would capture and interrogate him about the Corellian System he headed for the region of space controlled by the Emperor's Hammer.
| | Many just call him DS, from his days as a fighter pilot. As a pilot's squad became acclimated to him (and made sure he wasnt going to die quickly) they would give him a non-official moniker to use across combat bands, or while passing in a corridor. He has also gone by Seraph and Sera as a shortened version of the name of his deep cover persona after leaving House Revan. |
|
| |
|
| | His most prized possessions are his custom built sabers, his Councillor of Urr signet ring, and the barrier shield he stole from a Royal Guard member protecting the Seneschal of the Brotherhood. |
|
| |
|
| === Emperor's Hammer years === | | === Strengths === |
| | Due to his career in Law Enforcement, DS is extremly distrustful to most people. Only after a showing of loyalty have you earned his trust. Also due to his career he is a quick thinker, and with his Force training he is an able opponent when solving any crimes, or in just an argument. During his time with the Tie Corps as well as being a Sith for a period of time, he is just as home in a cockpit as he is on the ground in a battle. Lastly when fighting with him saber to saber, he is very strong, especially with his left hand, due to cybernetics. However he is not overly agile, he also does not believe in a fair fight and will use anything, dirt, rocks, spit, eye gouging, etc. to win a fight. |

| Soon after arriving on Aurora, the home planet of the EH, he decided to enlist in the EH Armed Forces. Taking a shuttle to the Platform Daedalus he took his Armed Forces Entrance Exam. Thinking he would just join the grunts on the ground as an enlisted man, he was suprised as he was pulled aside and asked if he would like to join the pilots program and accept a commission as Sub-Leutenant. He immediatly agreed and was transferred to the Imperial Star Destroyer Colossus, into Omicron Squadron. It was here he met someone who would prove to a valuble ally for years to come, [[Kromtal Stormfyld]]. Even though he was Stephens Squadron Commander the two became friends. Over the course of a year Stormfyld left the Hammer for places unknown, and Stephens eventually became Squadron Commander of Omicron. After serving his Tour of Duty, he temporaraly resigned his commission to complete testing for admittance into the Dark Brotherhood.
| | === Weaknesses/Phobias === |
| | He is extremly allergic to bee venom. He will also break out in hives, as well as sneeze and have irritated sinus symptoms when exposed to the fur of a little known creature known as a "Tribble". Also during heavy physical stress he can start to limp due to past leg injuries. |

| | == Possessions == |
| | === Weaponry === |
| | ==== Colt Model 1860 (Slugthrower) ==== |
| | After the skirmish that left his first custom lightsaber damaged, he picked up a slugthrower pistol from one of the bandits. He felt a calling to use the weapon and has added it to his arsenal since. |

| | ==== Custom Lightsaber "Justice" ==== |
| | The saber is 2 sections, held together by a small tube of transparisteel. All working parts and crystals are in the lower end of the saber, with the upper portion used only to make saber longer. Also the bottom portion is inscribed with his surname, in an ancient language, for personalization and identification. The saber blade is blue in color, symbolizing the "Thin Blue Line" that all Law Enforcement walk between the Law and Chaos. This saber was badly damaged during a skirmish with slavers. However DS keeps the parts in his quarters and is slowly rebuilding the saber. |

| | He is also been known to keep an "Assault Baton" with him at all times. This baton can be carried on his belt compacted to 6" long. It can be expanded to 21" with a quick flick of the wrist and is made of a lightweight form of Dura-steel. |
|
| |
|
| | This weapon is designed for quick strikes to a persons 'pain points'. The shoulder, arms, buttocks, back of knee caps, etc. The only difference between this weapon and others within the galaxy is the owner has outfitted it with a small bio-electric generator. This generator feeds off energy from the wielder and turns it into an electronic shock when the tip comes in contact with an opponent. |
|
| |
|
| | The baton is extremely durable, able to take a few blows from swords. It is black in color and a black foam grip handle provides a firm, durable gripping surface which assures non-slip handling. |
|
| |
|
| ==Characteristics== | | ==== Armor ==== |
| Stephens can be distinguished by his shaggy brown hair and unwillingness to shave. People have compaired him to a wookie due to his size and the look of his facial and head hair. While this discription is humorous to others, it often makes him mad. When he does choose to shave he can be picked out by a long, thin scar, running from his upper lip to his cheekbone on the left side. He is tall, almost 2 meters, and large, athletic build. His weight is just over 99 kilograms.
| | Due to an training exercise injury with Scholae Palatinae troops he often wears a lightweight armored vest under his robes. This protects his chest and abdominal area. In addition he wears modified bracers, the left housing his lightsaber, with the right housing his baton. Lastly during battle he wears greaves to aid in hand-to-hand combat and protection of his lower legs. |
|
| |
|
| Stephens is extreamly fond of wearing his Negotiator robes. He also wears a lightly padded/reinforced body armor under his robes due to its use in the protection against Vong projectile weaponry. Armor is also reinforced just below ribcage on righthand side due to a blaster wound taken during live-fire exercises.

| Is often called DS. This is due to being his callsign when he was an active pilot in the Emperors Hammer Tie Corps. Daniel's most prize possession is his lightsaber. In the course of his career as a Dark jedi he has had 3. The first blew up due to faulty wiring taking his left forearm in the blast. His second was his "pre-made" saber when he ascended to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. He still keeps this saber in his room, just in case. The third he made with his own hands after his ascension to Obelisk Prelate. The saber is 2 sections, held together by a small tube of transparisteel. All working parts and crystals are in the lower end of the saber, with the upper portion used only to make saber longer. Also the bottom portion is inscribed with his surname, in an ancient language, for personalization and identification.

After securing the Cocytus System, DS was approached by Dark Adept Raken about aligning with himself, former Grand Master Aristan Dantes, and a few other Sith in the creation of a new unit for the Brotherhood. At this time there are no records that can be found beyond what few memories that DS has of his time in House Revan. He states that when the unit was disbanded members went back to their original units with much information meant to be used to destabilize their enemies. After the disbanding DS found himself on a chartered shuttle to New Tython seeking redemption for the crimes he had committed against the Jedi in the past. After a period of time they accepted him into their Order, where he introduced himself as Seraphol Ceartas.

Characteristics
Seraph can be distinguished by his shaggy brown hair and thin beard. When he does choose to shave he can be picked out by a long, thin scar, running from his upper lip to his cheekbone on the left side. He is tall, almost 2 meters, and large, athletic build. His weight is just over 99 kilograms. Stephens is fond of wearing a brown in color worn down pair of paints, a nerf-wool long sleeved shirt under a fading brown synth-leather vest and form fitting slip on combat boots. He finishes his dress with a low slung holster belt that holds a 6 round revolving slugthrower pistol. He will also rarely be seen without his widebrim nerfwool fedora hat. He carries his Lightsaber and Shock Baton on the inside of his forearm bracers.
Many just call him DS, from his days as a fighter pilot. As a pilot's squad became acclimated to him (and made sure he wasnt going to die quickly) they would give him a non-official moniker to use across combat bands, or while passing in a corridor. He has also gone by Seraph and Sera as a shortened version of the name of his deep cover persona after leaving House Revan.
His most prized possessions are his custom built sabers, his Councillor of Urr signet ring, and the barrier shield he stole from a Royal Guard member protecting the Seneschal of the Brotherhood.
Strengths
Due to his career in Law Enforcement, DS is extremly distrustful to most people. Only after a showing of loyalty have you earned his trust. Also due to his career he is a quick thinker, and with his Force training he is an able opponent when solving any crimes, or in just an argument. During his time with the Tie Corps as well as being a Sith for a period of time, he is just as home in a cockpit as he is on the ground in a battle. Lastly when fighting with him saber to saber, he is very strong, especially with his left hand, due to cybernetics. However he is not overly agile, he also does not believe in a fair fight and will use anything, dirt, rocks, spit, eye gouging, etc. to win a fight.
Weaknesses/Phobias
He is extremly allergic to bee venom. He will also break out in hives, as well as sneeze and have irritated sinus symptoms when exposed to the fur of a little known creature known as a "Tribble". Also during heavy physical stress he can start to limp due to past leg injuries.
Possessions
Weaponry
Colt Model 1860 (Slugthrower)
After the skirmish that left his first custom lightsaber damaged, he picked up a slugthrower pistol from one of the bandits. He felt a calling to use the weapon and has added it to his arsenal since.
Custom Lightsaber "Justice"
The saber is 2 sections, held together by a small tube of transparisteel. All working parts and crystals are in the lower end of the saber, with the upper portion used only to make saber longer. Also the bottom portion is inscribed with his surname, in an ancient language, for personalization and identification. The saber blade is blue in color, symbolizing the "Thin Blue Line" that all Law Enforcement walk between the Law and Chaos. This saber was badly damaged during a skirmish with slavers. However DS keeps the parts in his quarters and is slowly rebuilding the saber.

Custom Lightsaber "Oathkeeper"
To be worked on.....
Assault Baton
He is also been known to keep an "Assault Baton" with him at all times. This baton can be carried on his belt compacted to 6" long. It can be expanded to 21" with a quick flick of the wrist and is made of a lightweight form of Dura-steel.
This weapon is designed for quick strikes to a persons 'pain points'. The shoulder, arms, buttocks, back of knee caps, etc. The only difference between this weapon and others within the galaxy is the owner has outfitted it with a small bio-electric generator. This generator feeds off energy from the wielder and turns it into an electronic shock when the tip comes in contact with an opponent.
The baton is extremely durable, able to take a few blows from swords. It is black in color and a black foam grip handle provides a firm, durable gripping surface which assures non-slip handling.
Armor
Due to an training exercise injury with Scholae Palatinae troops he often wears a lightweight armored vest under his robes. This protects his chest and abdominal area. In addition he wears modified bracers, the left housing his lightsaber, with the right housing his baton. Lastly during battle he wears greaves to aid in hand-to-hand combat and protection of his lower legs.
