| '''Thran Occasus''' is a member of Clan Scholae Palatinae and a firey member of the Sith Order. He is a wealthy and peculiar man from the Outer Rim world of Bakura. He was born in 1 ABY to a Sith-worshiping woman. An old story claims that he emerged from the womb drunk, clutching a set of dice. This speaks words about his personality. Thran is a notorious gambler and substance abuser. While his habits make him appear like a rambunctious youth, he is extraordinarily deep in the ways of the Force and the knowledgeable in the ways of the Universe. He is a philosopher by nature, but hides his mental prowess behind a veil of whiskey and spice. Thran is extremely sly and is very charismatic. People follow him and find themselves captured by his slick tongue and razor sharp wit. One of the only things he loves more than himself is the gentle touch of a woman. He is a peculiar man with a very specific set of beliefs about the Dark Side, The Sith, and the dogma of the Jedi. With a wealthy pocketbook, unchecked pride, and blind temper, Occasus is a powerful opponent for any person.

| === The House that Kast Built ===
| |
|
| |
|
| Callus Fen Kast was born in 41 bby on Corellia. He was the heir to a proud family of family of Aristocrats destined for bigger politics. When the Empire took Corellia, He was forced to take the fortunes his family had built up and join forces with the Empire. Soon forced by the very same Imperial pressures, he enlisted in the science schools of the Empire. He studied for years and was allowed to freely roam the galaxy in exchange for technological advances. While venturing to Reecee, he encountered my mother. Like a fairy-tale he fell madly in love with her, almost instantly. Callus followed the strange woman to the ends of many worlds. By the fall of the Empire, Callus was an accomplished scientist specializing in the field of repulsor technology and mechanized docking actuators. Just before my birth my father began working for the Imperial Navy Experimental Divisions, his work led to a division in the relationship he had with my mother.

| Aylanna Sokane was a clever Dathomiri/Hapan woman with excelling skills in seduction and flowing with connections to the Force. Her birth date is unknown, judging from her looks it appears to be somewhere around 14 BBY. Her youth is deceptive, however. With the aid of cosmetics and the like, she has maintained a look of a woman in her mid Thirties. This adds in part to her sex appeal and shockingly intimidating nature. The woman is shrewd as well. Secretly learning the ways of the Dark Side, she borders on being called a Sith. Though she was considered a Witch by her native peoples, she always considered herself as part of the higher class of peoples. She was an extreme socialite, often visiting galas in the greater parts of the galaxy. In the time she was not engaging in the upperclass, she spent it teaching and shaping a veritable army of young and force sensitive women. She led them about the galaxy, investigating planets and leaving their men dead in the streets. Under modern comparision, she would be revered as an Amazon priestess, comforted only by the embraces of her womanly companions. In the Reecee System, She encountered Callus Kast, the wealthy scientist from Corellia. She devoted a great deal of time to taunting and luring him into her traps. She had planned on killing him, like most of her lovers when she learned about Callus' fortune. Instead of pressing her to kill him, it encouraged her to marry him. This is a startling fact because she is a misogenist like most Dathomiri.

|
| Heralding from a curious line of Force philosophers who are from the darker regions of space, she lived a mostly lonely childhood in the Hapes Consortium. In her late teens she left the region and traveled to the Reecee system. After meeting a collage of “interesting” male companions, she began a small philosophical group dedicated to reviving the lost Force arts. She surrounded herself with a harem of young women, who studied under her. It is uncertain why she surrounds herself with youthful and attractive women, but she has been known to use that to her advantage. Often, she would invite men to the group for nights of hedonism. A traveling man once visited the group during a stay with a friend. In an instant, the man fell in love with the group’s leader. After several years and many planet relocations, the two came to settle on Bakura and were wed shortly there after. In spite of the wedding, Aylanna kept young women about the villas and mansions her husband owned, for her own personal court. The couple settled down and had a child, Shir'Ciri. Callus had built an amazing wealth over many years, allowing his family to travel freely and own many different homes. The house of Kast revolved firmly around its matriarch, leaving her in charge of many of its administration features. Large amounts of corporate stock as well as real estate assets made a large part of the enormous wealth of the fledgling family.
| | Thran Occasus-Palpatine was born Derc Kast on Bakura in [[1 ABY]] to father Callus Fen Kast and mother Aylanna Kast (née Sokane). Callus, an Imperial Scientist, specialized in Repulsor technologies. Aylanna was the former Prima-Ballerina of the Imperial Ballet Company and later took a position as an instructor for dance troop on Bakura. The couple had five children; four daughters and a single son, Derc. |

| 1 ABY ''Eythan Derran - Lower Maiden, possible daughter of Aylanna''
| | The dwindling Kast Family remained comfortable in the shadows of the Empire in pre invasion Bakura. Without warning Aylanna fled the planet, to go on a tour around the Galaxy. They had left, with her keen intuition. They had avoided the Ssi-ruuk Invasion entirely. She brought along her Daughter, her Son, and her handmaidens. While visiting the inner rim, her young son was scouted by opportunistic talent agents. While she declined their offers, she did see what they were claiming and began putting the boy through rigorous training. |
|
| |
|
| 1 ABY '''Derc Alphons Kast - Sunset Child'''
| | He became learned, the through hours of tedious instruction administered by the Handmaidens. While a youth, he enjoyed being a dangerous. At age 9, while on Vacation at a classy mountain resort, the young boy was abducted from his custodians. Taken to a hidden cabin in the mountains, the perverted captor had plans for what would inevitably become Cannibalism. One evening, the young boy had managed to worm free of his restraints. Sneaking through the night, he wielded a weapon in one hand. He perched waiting to strike the would be killer, when he noticed a small snake. |

| | He recalled his studies. Aposematism. Bright colored animals were usually venomous. Carefully, the boy wrangled the crimson serpent and placed it in bed with the man. He watched, gleefully as the snake bit the man over and over again. He screamed with pain, and the little boy laughed. When the captor had finally died, the now twisted young boy began to slice the body of the man. |
|

|
| '''* Aylanna's Children'''
| | After his rescue, it was noted for the record that the boy was found playing with the poisonous snake. The little Serpent would become a symbol of the man he would become, insidious and mistakably deadly. |

| The Kasts remained comfortable in the shadows of the Empire in pre invasion Bakura. Without warning Aylanna fled the planet, leaving Kast to work in his laboratory uninterupted. Upon her return nearly a year later, she once again subjugated her mate under her power and consummated her return. Around 8 months later, Thran was born a completely healthy and developed child, pre-maturely according to the time frame of my parent’s relationship. Though his father was oblivious, Aylanna spent her time meditating and developing her newborn son, who was already displaying an extreme presence in the Force. Deeply jealous and suspicious of her husband, she began grooming her son into a pillar of the Dark Side. She displayed a strange breed of love, confusing Thran with her cryptic lessons and apparent hatred towards him. She bred the young Thran into a somewhat more conscious Sith, teaching him in a completely non-conventional way. Always keeping her harem young women around the household during his teenage years was her desperate attempt to keep her oldest son from leaving her home, and to learn her ways. Though wary of my actions, she trusts that the Force will lead everything along its path bringing her plan into fruition, thus she does not fear any repercussion. The extent of teachings is not known to this day, her secrets were held in a force sealed box that is to remain unopened until her son could muster enough of her own betrayed emotion to open it. Aylanna saw it fit to be the coldly cruel to her son, redirecting her own loss of the feeling of love into a scathing blame of a young child. | | ==== The Trial and Exile ==== |

| Aylanna became pregnant after being raped by her husband, who assaulted her in a drunken rage. Through a matter of coincedences, a five year old Thran observed it. It has scarred him emotionally and mentally, impacting him in ways that are unimaginable. The Galactic Empire fell and Callus disappeared, mysteriously. For no apparent reason, Aylanna took this newborn son and named Torak, took a vested interest in raising him to be a strong ally against her oldest son. This bred animosity and many other evil feelings with the young Derc. Aylanna had intentionally never revealed Derc's name to him, leaving him more mysteries to uncover when he had aged.
| | ==== ==== |
| === Early Life ===
| | As he aged, he grew increasingly detached from those around him, entranced by his own greatness. The awkward Kast boy had grown up to become a handsome young man. At age 15, a young woman by the name of Jenny’ri Sanniran had been paired with him by the traditional [[starwars:Cosmic Balance|Rule of the Feather and Bowl]]. The pair was inseparable during this time and the young man clearly drew her attention away from her studies. |

With Contacts his mother held in the fashion world, Thran Occasus began albeit brief campaign in Modeling. His handsome young physique made him an overnight face for high fashion undergarments and cologne. Among laughter and rumors, he found himself realizing that he could not get what he wanted from strutting around in his underwear for a living. He reverted to business, and erased his memory of the terrible year he'd spent as a male model. |

| | For two years, Thran lived an unbridled life as a playboy and socialite, earning him many friends and enemies along the way. He was business buy day, and party at night. The rumors said it was the spice that kept him from just falling over and dying from overexertion. He was known for womanizing, and flaunting his wealth. Some claimed him to be reckless, but in all honesty Thran had nothing better to do. By this stage in his life, Thran had no emotional connections with anyone. Home was far away, He never stayed in one place long enough to call it home, Women would stay with him but be gone in the morning; and he loved it. |

| | The Dark Side called him, and he was brought to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood under Clan Exar Kun, where he immediately established himself as one of the most promising students the Clan had ever seen. In the frigid halls of Castle Frost, Thran Occasus took the first steps into what would truly be his destiny. Taking note of this, [[Grandmaster]] [[Chi-Long]] expressed interest in taking the young Thran under his tutelage. The Dark Lord could feel the presence within him, something that could only be tapped into when chosen to. The Force was strong with him and planets would fall in line. Shortly into his training, after the [[Clan Exar Kun]] merged with [[Clan Satal Keto]] to form [[Clan Plagueis]] Chi-Long vanished. Thran's instruction was passed along to a strong Sith by the name of Lusankya, who helped Thran reach the rank of [[Jedi Hunter]]. Thran felt slowed, like he was being held back our of Master's fears of him. After a brief recess from Training, Thran was passed over to [[Godo Nurok]] for the final stage of his instruction. The [[Lightsaber]] was a part of Thran, he had quickly mastered the Duelist's Form. |

|
| Commander [[Souls of Darkness]]
| | After reaching [[Dark Jedi Knight]], Thran Occasus joined forces with long-time friend [[Braecen Kaeth]] to lead [[House Exar Kun]]. Their work was greatly successful and lead to the benefit of the entire clan. However, Turmoil between the Proconsul [[Salth Khan]] and then Consul [[Sarin]] once again blocked the Sith's campaign for more. Without the strong allegiance to his Aedile, Braecen fled the Clan. Occasus was detained during the Rites of Supremacy, forcing him to remain in the volatile Clan. He was dangerous, but they could still keep him in check. |

The old allegiance would be beneficial for both parties, but more so for Thran. After several stints as [[Battle Team]] Leader, Braecen, who had recently been appointed [[Consul]], enlisted Thran’s help to unify the leadership of the Clan. |

| | Thran bounced between relationships until he was conscripted to [[Acclivis Draco]]. Braecen requested that his friend invest “special interest” in [[Rasilvenaira Kaeth StormRaven]] who held the position of [[Aedile]]. Something about the older woman stuck out to him, so he began to pursue her romantically. Although she expressed no interest in the beginning, Thran’s tenacity eventually roped her in. Thran advised her as troubles with the [[Acclivis Draco|HAD]] summit shook the house. Though she was in no place to do so, she seemed to trust him. After the longest relationship of Thran’s life, they continued to see each other throughout Thran’s usurping of the command of [[Caliburnus]]. He had been appointed Aedile, but only for a moment. |

The Force revealed itself to him. The saber showed him visions of the Past, Present, and Future. He was now Quaestor of House Caliburnus. |

| | As Quaestor of the House, Thran had invested a fortune into the House. He personally donated [[Dynasty Station]] and invested in the House's Facilities. Behind the controls of a TIE Fighter, he eventually established his place in the military community of Clan Scholae Palatinae. He spent hundreds of thousands of Credits gathering the rarest creatures in the Galaxy for the Clan to have. And for a personal pet, a mischievous lizard named Demas. Having flown many missions, he was awarded Top Ace, best of the best. Life was good. |

In a vision, deep in the Cave, he saw himself Ruler of All. Two figures appeared to him, testing him. He had failed the test, and he was distraught. Without warning, Thran vanished.

| | After his tenure as Quaestor of Caliburnus, Occasus discovered that he had a daughter. It was only part of the reason why he'd left. He immediately brought her to live with him and begin her studies of the Force. Originally, he kept her as a servant in his hidden jungle mansion on [[Ptolomea]], unsure of how to tell her the secret. A precocious 9, the girl quickly figured it out. Eventually, she came to live with Rasilvenaira who showed far more compassion than he could. They lived on Ptolomea for sometime, Thran making an odd living here or there. |

The crowning jewel of Caina, the building became a central reminder of the wealth and prosperity Thran brought with him.

Now in his early Forties, Callus could focus on the growth of his family. In 1 ABY, Aylanna gave birth to their fifth child, a boy, Derc. The Family was content, until 4 ABY. In the early part of the year, Callus had received a contract from none other than the Emperor himself. The Emperor wanted these repulsor pads installed in the Second Deathstar. The Contract was huge, he could not refuse. He immediately packed his bags and left for Endor. Callus toiled until he was killed in the Destruction of the Station at the Battle of Endor.
While Aylanna had lost her husband, she had acquired his entire inheritance including the vast contract that was signed. Through careful maneuvering of funds, she ensured a trove of money deeper than those of many Planets.
Awakening to Darkness
- " The boy is too mild mannered, too fragile, too shaken up to be guilty of this heinous act. Even if he had done it, who cares? "
- ― Official Police Statement
The dwindling Kast Family remained comfortable in the shadows of the Empire in pre invasion Bakura. Without warning Aylanna fled the planet, to go on a tour around the Galaxy. They had left, with her keen intuition. They had avoided the Ssi-ruuk Invasion entirely. She brought along her Daughter, her Son, and her handmaidens. While visiting the inner rim, her young son was scouted by opportunistic talent agents. While she declined their offers, she did see what they were claiming and began putting the boy through rigorous training.
He became learned, the through hours of tedious instruction administered by the Handmaidens. While a youth, he enjoyed being a dangerous. At age 9, while on Vacation at a classy mountain resort, the young boy was abducted from his custodians. Taken to a hidden cabin in the mountains, the perverted captor had plans for what would inevitably become Cannibalism. One evening, the young boy had managed to worm free of his restraints. Sneaking through the night, he wielded a weapon in one hand. He perched waiting to strike the would be killer, when he noticed a small snake.
He recalled his studies. Aposematism. Bright colored animals were usually venomous. Carefully, the boy wrangled the crimson serpent and placed it in bed with the man. He watched, gleefully as the snake bit the man over and over again. He screamed with pain, and the little boy laughed. When the captor had finally died, the now twisted young boy began to slice the body of the man.
After his rescue, it was noted for the record that the boy was found playing with the poisonous snake. The little Serpent would become a symbol of the man he would become, insidious and mistakably deadly.
The Trial and Exile
- "What doesn’t kill him will only make him stronger…"
- ― Aphelia speaking about the testing of Thran
As he aged, he grew increasingly detached from those around him, entranced by his own greatness. The awkward Kast boy had grown up to become a handsome young man. At age 15, a young woman by the name of Jenny’ri Sanniran had been paired with him by the traditional Rule of the Feather and Bowl. The pair was inseparable during this time and the young man clearly drew her attention away from her studies.
Money
- " Three Hundred Billion credits and you can’t buy me a drink?"
- ― Anonymous woman
At age 17, now named Thran Occasus, the young man set out on adventures and pursuit of wealth. Somewhere between Bakura and the other side of the Galaxy, Derc Kast had disappeared. With Contacts his mother held in the fashion world, Thran Occasus began albeit brief campaign in Modeling. His handsome young physique made him an overnight face for high fashion undergarments and cologne. Among laughter and rumors, he found himself realizing that he could not get what he wanted from strutting around in his underwear for a living. He reverted to business, and erased his memory of the terrible year he'd spent as a male model.
Comfortably Numb
- " 150 kilos of the finest spice in all the land…Looks like someone is partying tonight…"
- ― Drug dealer on delivering a parcel to Thran
For two years, Thran lived an unbridled life as a playboy and socialite, earning him many friends and enemies along the way. He was business buy day, and party at night. The rumors said it was the spice that kept him from just falling over and dying from overexertion. He was known for womanizing, and flaunting his wealth. Some claimed him to be reckless, but in all honesty Thran had nothing better to do. By this stage in his life, Thran had no emotional connections with anyone. Home was far away, He never stayed in one place long enough to call it home, Women would stay with him but be gone in the morning; and he loved it.
- " You have…potential…"
- ― Braecen Kaeth
Clan Exar Kun
The Dark Side called him, and he was brought to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood under Clan Exar Kun, where he immediately established himself as one of the most promising students the Clan had ever seen. In the frigid halls of Castle Frost, Thran Occasus took the first steps into what would truly be his destiny. Taking note of this, Grandmaster Chi-Long expressed interest in taking the young Thran under his tutelage. The Dark Lord could feel the presence within him, something that could only be tapped into when chosen to. The Force was strong with him and planets would fall in line. Shortly into his training, after the Clan Exar Kun merged with Clan Satal Keto to form Clan Plagueis Chi-Long vanished. Thran's instruction was passed along to a strong Sith by the name of Lusankya, who helped Thran reach the rank of Jedi Hunter. Thran felt slowed, like he was being held back our of Master's fears of him. After a brief recess from Training, Thran was passed over to Godo Nurok for the final stage of his instruction. The Lightsaber was a part of Thran, he had quickly mastered the Duelist's Form.
After reaching Dark Jedi Knight, Thran Occasus joined forces with long-time friend Braecen Kaeth to lead House Exar Kun. Their work was greatly successful and lead to the benefit of the entire clan. However, Turmoil between the Proconsul Salth Khan and then Consul Sarin once again blocked the Sith's campaign for more. Without the strong allegiance to his Aedile, Braecen fled the Clan. Occasus was detained during the Rites of Supremacy, forcing him to remain in the volatile Clan. He was dangerous, but they could still keep him in check.
The Empire
Upon his departure, Thran sought to follow his old friend, who had already worked his way up to Quaestor in Clan Scholae Palatinae. The old allegiance would be beneficial for both parties, but more so for Thran. After several stints as Battle Team Leader, Braecen, who had recently been appointed Consul, enlisted Thran’s help to unify the leadership of the Clan.
Prejudices were held against Thran for his actions. He seemed aloof, uncaring for the rigid structure the clan had supported before he arrived. He didn't care, he was going to Conquer and steal his way to the top.

Caliburnus
Thran bounced between relationships until he was conscripted to Acclivis Draco. Braecen requested that his friend invest “special interest” in Rasilvenaira Kaeth StormRaven who held the position of Aedile. Something about the older woman stuck out to him, so he began to pursue her romantically. Although she expressed no interest in the beginning, Thran’s tenacity eventually roped her in. Thran advised her as troubles with the HAD summit shook the house. Though she was in no place to do so, she seemed to trust him. After the longest relationship of Thran’s life, they continued to see each other throughout Thran’s usurping of the command of Caliburnus. He had been appointed Aedile, but only for a moment.
He had nearly claimed the Proconsul Spot from Phoenix, and was elected to work with Impetus in House Caliburnus. Thran, in a vain attempt to steal the coveted Caliburnus Lightsaber, dragged Rasilvenaira into the forests of Ptolomea. He got to the lightsaber first, but what happened was not what he expected. The Force revealed itself to him. The saber showed him visions of the Past, Present, and Future. He was now Quaestor of House Caliburnus.
As Quaestor of the House, Thran had invested a fortune into the House. He personally donated Dynasty Station and invested in the House's Facilities. Behind the controls of a TIE Fighter, he eventually established his place in the military community of Clan Scholae Palatinae. He spent hundreds of thousands of Credits gathering the rarest creatures in the Galaxy for the Clan to have. And for a personal pet, a mischievous lizard named Demas. Having flown many missions, he was awarded Top Ace, best of the best. Life was good.
Thran had learned great things about himself exploring the Caverns under Ptolomea's dark jungles. He had learned a great deal more about his plans. In a vision, deep in the Cave, he saw himself Ruler of All. Two figures appeared to him, testing him. He had failed the test, and he was distraught. Without warning, Thran vanished. Gone off to change what the Anonymous spirits told him.
Dorimad Sol
After his tenure as Quaestor of Caliburnus, Occasus discovered that he had a daughter. It was only part of the reason why he'd left. He immediately brought her to live with him and begin her studies of the Force. Originally, he kept her as a servant in his hidden jungle mansion on Ptolomea, unsure of how to tell her the secret. A precocious 9, the girl quickly figured it out. Eventually, she came to live with Rasilvenaira who showed far more compassion than he could. They lived on Ptolomea for sometime, Thran making an odd living here or there.
Caina was calling him. The Sith kept his affairs in line on Ptolomea, but moved to Caina where he became the Aedile of House Dorimad Sol. It didn't last for long. Dakari, a Sith Battlelord, knew what would happen when he walked through the doors. He found it wise to step down, lest he find himself dead one morning.
Occasus quickly stepped up. The project; A Castle. The old image of House Ziost's Castle Frost stuck in his mind. Ice Worlds were good for beginnings. The original plan failed. The House was left out in the cold. Moving to the warmer Central Climes, a New Project began; Arx Ondorii. The crowning jewel of Caina, the building became a central reminder of the wealth and prosperity Thran brought with him. House Dorimad Sol, had gone face to face with Rasilvenaira and House Caliburnus. House Dorimad Sol won and the relationship between the two Quaestor's fell apart.
Thran continued to see prosperity. He was moving upwards. He'd planned coups on Phoenix, and was edging towards the big seat. Phoenix retired, and his opening came. With great resentment, Thran became Proconsul.
