| Despite all this, Illian can appear as an attractive young human male, with sparkling green eyes, and long lightly curled silver-white hair. His smile is disarming and his demeanor charming when he so wishes and many having died staring deeply into deep pools of emerald innocence, surprise etched into their features. His build is slight, hiding a reasonable strength, and he rises to a little under an average human height. He chooses aristocratic garb, always favoring dark crimson or black satin frills and embroidery over the standard cloth robes of his [[Dark Jedi]] brothers. | | Despite all this, Illian can appear as an attractive young Human male, with sparkling green eyes, and long, lightly curled silver-white hair.

| Though fairly unique in appearance Illian can blend in when he wishes. His most telling features are his eyes, which will glow in response to emotion-driven force activation, and the two black gauntlets that are Illian's prison. Due to his drastically heightened susceptibility to the dark energies of the force, he must always wear the twisted, spiked gloves as a barrier. No one knows what they are made of, only that they will stem the flow of force power into Illian and that their appearance reflects the cruel soul of their owner. | | Though fairly unique in appearance, Illian can blend in when he wishes.

| Illian's past begins in mystery, being found as an infant by the Imperial Dreadnought Cruel Edict toward the end of the tyrannical rule of Emperor Palpatine. Crew logs indicate finding a derelict cargo vessel near the fourth moon of Endor shortly after the rebel attack on the death star. The ship was empty aside from the baby Syn, wrapped in a simple cloth and bearing two strange amulets around his neck. The executive order had come down through Imperial ranks that any non-naval personnel found within a ten parsec radius of the Death Star were to be treated as rebels and killed. So it was that Illian was placed in a detention cell to await disintegration. | | Illian's past begins in mystery, being found as an infant by the Imperial Dreadnought Cruel Edict toward the end of the tyrannical rule of Emperor Palpatine.

| Fate had other plans however, and the battle frigate Valiant jumped in after a successful ambush on Imperial supply lines on its way to rejoin the main battle. Having been taken by surprise, the Dreadnought fell quickly, and was soon unable to move or fire its main weapons.

| Life aboard the Valiant was simple enough. Illian was integrated into the deck hands, and became apt if not especially gifted at maintenance and repair duties. He would work hard and get along well with his adopted family, but secretly he longed for more. Finally the day came when he was instructed to deliver a shipment of X-Wing parts down to Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin IV. Upon arriving he was detected as a force sensitive, and in no time was taken from his station on the Valiant and enrolled in the academy to begin Jedi training. | | Life aboard the Valiant was simple enough.

| After a time however, Illian began to be troubled by his past.

Illian Syn represents the small fraction of force users who fall victim to their own power, and are either killed or driven mad. Syn falls under the latter category, after a disastrous mission for the Dark Brotherhood in which Illian was completely submerged in the dark side of the force for a lengthy period of time.

The time between leaving the academy and finding the brotherhood is still clouded in mystery, even for Illian. It is known that a deep psychological trauma was inflicted at the hands of a Rodian crime lord, but the details are sketchy at best. Finally after a couple of years adrift, Syn was picked up by a Taldryan Deep-space patrol and taken back to Karufur for interrogation and study. His Jedi powers were soon discovered and he was placed in the care of House Dinaari to be trained as a Dark Jedi.
Initially arrogant, Syn's first months in the Brotherhood were a steep learning curve, but soon he settled into a routine of service that shone with potential to his Summit. Once again he found he was happy, even finding new affection in the arms of another trainee of the Shadow Academy.
As with the time before, this period of happiness was short lived. During a failed mission with another Journeyman of the Brotherhood, Illian was forced to remove his gauntlets (the new incarnation of his amulets after a Dark Jedi Master transmuted them into a more practical form) unleashing a devastating torrent of dark energy into Illian's body, shattering his mind and his sanity forever. He was taken back to the House Dinaari Home-world of Altur for treatment during which time over twenty-five medical personnel lost their lives. After months of restraints and sedatives the young Jedi's mind finally settled into a balanced state of insanity and clarity and after extensive tests and observation, was released back to the Brotherhood for active service.
Illian returned to duty changed. Where once the charming, albeit hot-headed, Journeyman was welcomed, he was now met with mistrust and occasionally fear. His young love and student disappeared without a trace, leaving only the bleakest of speculation as clues to her fate. Despite this, the now-Hunter of the Brotherhood seemed more focussed on his tasks, earning him a place on the summit as Envoy to House Dinaari.
It was during his trials to become a knight that Illian went AWOL, leaving his house and the Brotherhood for nearly a year. He returned shortly after the Eighth Great Jedi War, more shrouded in mystery than ever before. Though his whereabouts had been a mystery one thing was for sure: Whenever the deranged Jedi showed up, dark days swiftly followed...
A New Era in the Brotherhood
Finding little in common with his old clan-mates, Illian decided it was time for him to move on. With the Yuuzhan Vong sending the Clans into chaos, the mad Hunter seized the opportunity to run, finding refuge in Arcona. He soon made a name for himself, but despite numerous attempts at control, his insanity soon earned him the distrust (and occasional dislike) of his new brothers and sisters.
Salvation came in a strange form, with Sashar Kodiak Erinos taking the volatile student under his wing. The future seemed interesting once again for the tortured soul, and only time would tell if he could become a truly celebrated and trusted son of Arcona.
Illian Syn was knighted shortly after joining Arcona, and with his appointment as a trooper in Blue Mist battle team under Sergeant Talos Shadowblood d'Tana, adopted the cleft-respirator configuration of the 212th Utapau Airborne Corps armor, from the clone-wars era as his regular battle attire, painted blue during missions with the team.
