| {{quote|There is only me...|Anubis Annedu}}
| | '''Zxyl Bes'uliik''', also known as the '''Iron Beast of Manday'aim,''' '''Breaker of Bones,''' and the '''Naur'alor''', is a non Force-sensitive Mandalorian General and genetically-altered Dathomirian Nightbrother who has the distinction of being the longest serving [[Regent|Regent of the Brotherhood]] before he was succeeded by [[Thran Occasus]]. He is an enigmatic figure of two unique heritages, born on the desolate planet Dathomir before being cast out into the wild lands and rescued by the Mandalorians of Clan Bes'uliik, who adopted him as a Foundling and brought him to their ancestral homeworld of Nau'ur where he was instructed in their ancient knowledge of beskar forging practices, cultures, lore, and combat and war tactics. |
|
| |
|
| [[Anubis Annedu]], also refered to as '''Anbu''', is currently a [[Dark Jedi Knight]] residing in [[House Satal Keto]] of [[Clan Plagueis]]. He is a [[starwars:Lorrdian|Lorrdian]], fluent in the ability of [[starwars:Kinetic_communication|kinetic communication]] and is able to interpret the body language from sentients, determining their intentions or mood. The Ketoan was born on [[starwars:Dantooine|Dantooine]] and raised on [[starwars:Corellia|Corellia]] by his parents, and joined the New Jedi Order shortly before falling to the call of the Dark Side. A former Battle-Team Leader of [[Hex]], [[Rollmaster]] and [[Envoy]] of [[House Qel-Droma]], as well as a former [[Society of Envoys|Assistant Envoy]] of [[House Ludo Kressh]], Anubis has seen much of the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood|Brotherhood]], and has been a part of both the [[Sith]] and [[Obelisk]] orders twice.
| | He is an incredible weaponsmith and Mandalorian Armorer, blending knowledge of arcane forging practices with that of those of the Mandalorians and Perideans. He has allies across the Brotherhood, including [[Voice of the Brotherhood]] [[Idris Adenn]], who recruited him to the Brotherhood after spending time together as bounty hunters on the Outer Rim world of Batuu. |

|
| ==Character History==
| | Bes'uliik has the distinction of being the longest serving [[Regent|Regent of the Brotherhood]] before he was succeeded by [[Thran Occasus|Thran Occasus Palpatine]], and one of if not only known [[Sons & Daughters of Taldryan|Scions of Taldryan]] to have given up the Clan Taldryan namesake of Taldrya to pursue his own ends away Taldryan. He has served in a variety of positions, including the first [[Praetor]] to the Regent, Taldryan [[Proconsul]], Naur'alor of Clan Bes'uliik, and straight up badass. |
| ===Regular Life===
| |
| {{quote|It seems he has inherited your red skin, Karen.|''Don Annedu'', upon the birth of his son}}
| |
| Anubis Annedu was born on the planet of Dantooine, the son of [[starwars:Lorrdian|Lorrdians]] Don and Karen Annedu. Because of a bizarre gene in his mother's bloodline, he was born with the same red toned skin color she was also born with, instead of the white and tan tone as most Lorrdians. Not soon after having their child, the two Lorrdians moved to the planet of Corellia, hoping to keep him away from a farmers life.
| |
|
| |
|
| Like all the other kids, he went to a learning institution on order to get his education. When he told others that he was a Lorrdian, a race of near humans, he was laughed at and teased because his features didn't resemble that of the Lorrd-habitants. At the age of twelve, he had become so fed up with one of the children that had been teasing him that he attacked him, going so far as to smash his head off of the ground repeatedly until the other boy had become unconscious and bleeding.
| | = Biography = |
| | = Knowledge, Abilities & Traits = |
| | == Knowledge == |
| | Zxyl contains a vast myriad of knowledge across several topics and both the Mandalorian and Dathomirian cultures through years of intense training, research, and indoctrination. |
|
| |
|
| The Lorrdian was expelled from the institution and his parents charged since he was underage. Unable to gain acceptance into any other of the schools for two years, he had to be home-schooled until a time as he could continue his proper education. He returned to regular schooling at the age of fifteen, many of the kids that he knew three years ago remembering exactly what he had done to one of their own.
| | Having been raised by the Mandalorian Armorers of the hidden beskar-veined Mandalorian world Nau'ur as a Foundling, Bes'uliik is familiar with the ancient history, cultures, and lore of his adoptive people including the Mandalorian Code and Way of the Mandalore. He was instructed in a vast array of Mandalorian-related topics during his adolescence including but not explicitly limited to their ancient forging practices of beskar, Mandalorian combat tactics and war histories, advanced metallurgy and experimental engineering. He has been known to use this knowledge to guide and aid wayward Mandalorians, acting as a steward for any that require the knowledge he has. He is incredibly knowledgeable in the ''Mandalorian Creed''',''' Way of the Mandalore''',''''' and various ''Mandalorian Codes'' such as the ''Mandalorian Code of Combat''. |
|
| |
|
| He lived a normal life until he turned the age of sixteen, when he began to have nightmares of horrible things such as death and destruction of people he cared about. At first he didn't consult his parents on the matter, believing it to be an ordinary stage in his Lorrdian life. After three weeks of continuous nightmares, he brought it to the attention of his parents. They were unable to determine the cause of the nightmares from his mood and his body language, which was unusual, so they contacted a [[starwars:New_Republic|New Republic]] doctor on the situation.
| | Despite his indoctrination into the Mandalorian religion, to which he has a strong preference given his tumultuous history on the planet Dathomir, this genetically-altered Dathomirian has not forgotten his heritage and where he came from. He has learned the ancient culture and lore of the Dathomirian people, including the ancient forging techniques and practices used on the Zabrak's ancestral homeworld of Peridea, as well as their Magick. |
|
| |
|
| The three traveled to the rich planet of Coruscant to visit the doctor, who requested five hundred credits payment in advance for a check-up. Don and Karen grudgingly agreed, just wanting to know what was happening to their only child. The physican took a blood sample, and had the three of them return a day later. When the doctor read the results, he seemed slightly puzzled. He consulted his records, locating a file with a similar blood sample. Both contained a high midi-chlorian count for his species, which if the man was right, indicated that Anubis was a [[starwars:Force_Sensitive|Force Sensitive]] being.
| | Zxyl Bes'uliik uses his knowledge to gain advantage, lead the Mandalorians of Clan Bes'uliik who follow him, and forge both alliances and gear. He is fluent in several languages, such as Ancient Mando'a and Dadita used by the Mandalorians, Peridean as used by the Dathomirians, the general Zabraki language, Galactic Basic, Binary, and the ancient Sith language of ur-Kittât. |
|
| |
|
| The New Republic doctor gave them no explanation as to what was happening, as he didn't know himself. He told the three that there was nothing that he could do about it, and told them that there was something happening on the [[starwars:Yavin_4|fourth moon of Yavin]] which might help them in their investigation into their sons nightmares.
| | == Abilities == |
| | Bes'uliik has near unparalleled skills inside a forge, a master of crafting. He is incredibly adept in arcane, ancient Dathomirian, and ancient Mandalorian forging techniques, and he can craft nearly any article - of war or otherwise - desired by those that request and are worthy of his services as The Naur'alor. the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a member of Clan Bes'uliik - which he now leads since their reformation. He has used his incredible skills as a Mandalorian Armorer to craft various armors for Mandalorians across the Brotherhood, including the likes of [[Idris Adenn]], [[Appius Wight]], both of whom he considers brothers, and others. He has crafted numerous things, and spends most of his time behind a workbench. |
|
| |
|
| ===Journey Into the Force===
| | As a Dathomirian by birth, Zxyl can rely on his incredibly limited practical knowledge of ancient Shadow Magick to assist in things such as looking into the future, amplifying his natural abilities beyond their normal capabilities, and moving objects with telekinesis. He is a natural born leader, deploying his high intellect acumen and leadership skills to lead those that follow him with resolute honor that supersedes even his own desires. |
| {{quote|You must learn to let go if you are to succeed, my apprentice.|''Dorogo Fen'', shortly after meeting Anubis}}
| |
| Before leaving Coruscant, an unfortunate accident occurred. Both Don and Karen Annedu were stabbed to death while returning to the rented hotel room, leaving their son alone on the planet. They left their son a sum of twelve thousand credits, which is all he needed to get started.
| |
|
| |
|
| Not soon after his parents death, did the Annedu become a hired gun. He started working as muscle for a small crime lord, learning the operation of blaster weapons, variations, and the sort. He completed numerous jobs for his boss, until he left the job several months later and dissapeared. His nightmares returned soon afterwords. He remembered the New Republic doctor he had visited several months ago had said that something was happening on Yavin IV, and used the amount of credits he had made during his time as a mercenary to pay for his passage to the planet.
| | Like most Nightbrothers - and Mandalorians - he has a penchant for combat and is able to deploy a wide range of combat abilities, tactics, and weapons to combat his enemies, using his incredible resolve to stay resolute in even the most toughest of battles or wars. The Mandalorian General is a capable lightsaber duellist who has intensively studied the Vapaad and Djem So lightsaber forms, and frequently uses his various light-weapons such as his triple-phase lightsaber and hidden lightsaber vambrace to deadly effect. While he has also learned the ancient art of Trakata, Bes'uliik does not rely solely on light-weapons as his only means of combat; capable of deploying a myriad of weapons effectively such as blasters, his gravity hammer and custom Mandalorian vambrace, as well as bladed weapons to deadly effect, often dual-wielding his assorted weaponry. |
| [[Image:Lightsaber_by_goldtiger142003.jpg||thumb|left|75px|Anubis' Jedi Lightsaber]]
| |
|
| |
|
| On arrival, he discovered that nearly everybody had a [[starwars:Lightsaber|cylindrical object]] attached to their belts, and were wearing a light set of armor, or a pair of robes. After approaching one of the residents, he became aware that this was the headquarters of the New Jedi Order. He asked if he could speak to somebody in charge, and was brought before a junior council comprised of three Jedi Knights.
| | Although relatively on par with the physicality of a seasoned soldier, Bes'uliik is astonishingly strong and can deploy that might at a moments notice, earning him the title of The Breaker of Bones. |
|
| |
|
| The Lorrdian told him about his nightmares, and how he wished to be finally rid of them. The three Jedi conversed with one another through the use of the [[starwars:Force|Force]], and decided that they would accept him into training to end the nightmares, as long as he were to let go of everything that had happened in the recent months, such as the death of his parents, and the death that he inflicted upon as a mercenary. | | = Equipment = |
| | The equipment listed here is Zxyl's most used equipment, although he is not strictly limited to this list and often deploys whatever equipment is most suitable for a given situation. |
|
| |
|
| Anubis agreed without a second thought, and became a student at the academy. He was given a master named Dorogo Fen, as well as a training lightsaber, which would only sting instead of actually cut something until he was skilled enough to construct his own and use it wisely. The Annedu's nightmares disappeared for a time, finally leaving him to some piece, and rest.
| | === Traditional Mandalorian Equipment === |
|
| |
|
| He was making some good progress in his training, while he lacked in other fields. Five years after he had first been taken as a student at the academy, he was close to being Knighted. He had built a unique lightsaber, which featured an also unique focusing crystal which gave off an orange blade. Later, he and his master were sent on a mission to [[starwars:Coronet_City|Coronet City]], where the Padawan had been raised as a child. They were sent to look for a suspected leader of a pirate cell, who had reportedly been planning the assassination of key figureheads. Disobeying the wishes of his master, he returned to the old boarded up home his parents had owned to gather some possessions of his parents.
| | ==== Ancient Mandalorian Beskar'gam ==== |
| | Originally crafted by a long-dead member of Clan Bes'uliik for an ancient Manda'lor, the armor was returned to the ancestral homeworld of Zxyl's clan eons ago. When he finally graduated from Foundling to full fledged Mandalorian he was gifted the armor by his adoptive father, Krast Bes'uliik, to which the younger Bes'uliik modified to suit his purpose. The armor itself has gone through three major iterations since his first interaction with the Brotherhood, starting from its initial form to the armor he presently wears - consistently pulling from ancient Mandalorian designs and armors as he continously upgrades and modifies it to suit his abilities, standing, and crafting acumen. The present armor is a heavily custom armored beskar exoskeleton, and eschews a few traditional Mandalorian pieces for those that are completely custom. His armor does not bear the Ka'rta (or Mandalorian Iron Heart) in its typical place on his chestplate, as it is formed from three separate pieces. Instead the Iron Heart is located in a buckle on a strap used to secure the large pauldrons of ancient Manda'lors to his chestplate. |
|
| |
|
| When the young Jedi's master found out about the action, he removed the items from his Padawan. He feared that trying to reconnect with his parents would cause the nightmares and especially the anger, he had been experiencing to return, and he knew how hard it was on the Lorrdian from the connection they had formed during their time as master and apprentice.
| | His helmet also follows the designs of ancient Manda'lors such as Mandalore the Ultimate, primarily gold in color with an underlying dark gunmetal grey piece that forms the main shell of the helmet. Expandable slots for his beskar and cerakote-crafted horns that open and close around them to seal the helmet from atmospheric pressure changes have been integrated into the "crown", allowing him to wear the helmet. The suit is crafted entirely from the purest alloys of the rare metal beskar and is both lightsaber resistant and capable of entering through all classes of atmospheres during an orbital drop, offering near unparalleled protection to the wearer. It is synced with his custom Mandalorian Vambrace Gauntlet to offer a unique armor combination. |
|
| |
|
| Anubis would have none of it however, stating that if he wanted to reconnect with his parents and in turn possibly cause the nightmares to return, it was his problem and his problem alone. There was nothing to be done to stop him. In a fit of rage, he tried knocking his master out cold so that he could take the items back into his ownership, but was unsuccessful in his task.
| | Zxyl's beskar'gam is entirely unique to him and him alone, featuring a design not seen anywhere else. Several unique upgrades have been made to the once archaic armor to bring it in line with his own rigiorus standards such as knee-pad rocket darts, a specialized utility arm hidden in one of the pauldrons to assist him in a multitude of technical tasks, and a miniaturized hypermatter reactor built into the chestplate to power the armor. An artificial intelligence system has been integrated into the helmet, and has access to the wide range of sensors present in the beskar'gam. The Helpful Artificial Lackey (or H.A.L.) can control all armor systems including his jetpack, either solely at its own loyal discretion or Bes'uliik's command. It can communicate with him both verbally through spoken word or visually through indicators, alerts, and text on his heads-up display. |
|
| |
|
| Instead, he was knocked out. The two returned to the academy on [[starwars:Yavin_4|Yavin IV]], their mission unsuccessful thanks to the actions of the young Padawan. The three Jedi Knights that accepted him into the order called him back into the small chambers he had first visited when he arrived, and told him that his actions were completely unacceptable and punishable.
| | ==== Custom WESTAR-35 Blaster Pistol ==== |
|
| |
|
| Anubis insisted that he have ownership of his parent's possessions and assets, claiming that as their son, he was the rightful owner. The junior council meditated upon the Padawan's actions, and decided that he was to be reprimanded for acting in a fit of rage and attacking his master, though he was not to be reprimanded too harshly for his actions. Furious that he was being reprimanded to begin with, the Lorrdian claimed that the Jedi Order had no sense of honor.
| | ==== Beskar Gravity Hammer ==== |
|
| |
|
| He continued to boast the wrongful actions and mistakes of the original Jedi Order, haven read all about the fall of [[starwars:Darth_Vader|Darth Vader]] and countless other Jedi to the Dark Side of the Force. He was reprimanded further, and his lightsaber was to be taken from him. Refusing to give up his weapon, he packed his things and resigned from the New Jedi Order.

| |
|
| |
|
| Anubis wandered the galaxy for a few more years, finding whatever work he was able to, when he was able to. He became proficient at repairing and flying starfighters, as well as smuggling. At one point, he returned to his past occupation of a mercenary, working for warlords that were all vying for power on some system or another. Whenever somebody would ask about his [[starwars:lightsaber|lightsaber]], he would claim that he had taken it off of the body of a dead Jedi Knight.
| | === Light Weaponry === |
|
| |
|
| As one of his first assignments as muscle for one of the more prominent huts, Annedu was assigned to track down and bring a man named Dorogo Fen to his employer, alive or dead. It took the Lorrdian a while to realize it, but he later realized that Dorogo Fen was his old master during his time with the [[starwars:New_Jedi_Order|New Jedi Order]]. Seeing it as a chance to bring the old master to justice for ruining his chance at reconnecting with his now long deceased parents, the eager man set out to capture Fen.
| | ==== Peridea (Ancient Dual Phase Dathomirian Lightsaber) ==== |
| | | This section to eventually move to a standalone article after a Lightsaber infobox template for a new page and LightsaberSmall template to replace this section have been created. |
| Though it took some time, Anubis eventually located the [[starwars:Jedi_Master|Jedi Master]] hiding in his very own homestead on Corellia. Furious as to why the old man would return to his parent's house, the mercenary quickly engaged his former master in a lightsaber duel.
| | {{Lightsaber |
| | | | image= [[File:9056-lightsaber-1.png]] |
| The duel ended quickly, with Annedu defeated and on his knees in front of the man he once called master. Dorogo referred to him as a failure, and took his lightsaber. He left his former pupil with his shame, leaving Corellia. Anubis, after recovering from the wounds that had been inflicted to his arms and legs, left as well. He returned back to his employer, and declared that he had killed Fen in a lightsaber duel.
| | | name= Peridea |
| | | | manufacturer= Unknown Night Mother |
| Even though he was only given half the payment for the bounty, since the body was never returned as it was supposed to be, the former [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] accepted that he had only been given half and moved on. He had other jobs as muscle, protecting one of his employers or assassinating somebody when ordered to.
| | | model= Handcrafted |
| | | | type= Single-bladed Lightsaber |
| Twice, he had tapped into the [[starwars:Force|Force]] while trying to protect his most recent employer, a Black Sun Vigo to whom he did not know the name, and was payed not to know. Three assassination attempts had been brought down on the pirate, and twice the Lorrdian had successfully protected the man, failing on the third attempt. Not too soon afterwords, he stole an abundance of credits from the dead Vigo's personal credit accounts and returned his parent's homestead on Corellia back to it's former glory, giving it a full restoration.

| | | hilt shape= Straight, slightly curved |
| Anubis arrived on the [[Shadow Academy]] grounds, which was on the [[Antei]] orbiting moon of [[Lyspair]], in mid-26 ABY. He was nothing more then a shattered and broken soul, and wore tore rags as clothing. He had a series of cuts and bruises on his arms and legs, which he had earned on the long trek across the moon to the academy. He was accepted into the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood|Dark Brotherhood]] as a hopeful, and after showing some of the potential he had, was accepted into the ranks as an [[Initiate]].
| | | hilt length= |
| | | | material= Phrik-alloy |
| The only task he had left to complete before earning the rank apprentice and be clanned, was passing the [[Test of Lore]]. This exam had a time span of a few days time, which would allow the Lorrdian to recover from the journey. After five days had passed, the exam was complete. He had passed it, and had a clan chosen for him. He looked for the right transport in the hanger, and found the one he was supposed to board. He was assigned to [[Clan Taldryan]].

| The Annedu arrived on the forest planet of [[Taruma]], the home of [[House Ektrosis]] and where the Ektrosis Temple was located. He was welcomed into the house by Obelisk Quaestor [[Hel-Pa Sklib]] and Krath Aedile [[Vodo Biask]]. Not soon after arriving, he was assigned by Krath Rollmaster [[Alanna Taldrya]] to be the un-official student of her assistant, [[Vardar]].
| | * Width: 7.112cm |
| | | * Depth: 3.4554cm |
| Vardar provided a large variety of insight onto what was happening within the clan, as well as the standards that were expected of him. Several days after his arrival into his new life, at the awarding ceremony of the last Right of Supremecy, the [[starwars:Yuuzhan_Vong|Yuuzhan Vong]] let their presence be known to the galaxy, and declared war on the brotherhood.
| | | mods= Dual Phase Emitter (Pistol) |
| | | | capacity= |
| The Annedu was aboard the ''[[VSD Dark Prophet|Dark Prophet]]'' when the space battle began, Vong coral skippers and brotherhood fighters streaking across the darkness of space. When they turned their forces on the ''Dark Prophet'', Anubis knew that he had to defend the ship. He aided several other young members of [[Clan Taldryan|Taldryan]] fight one of the alien warriors, trying to protect one of the hanger bay doors which led to the rest of the vessel from being over-run.
| | | range= Medium |
| | | | design= Custom |
| When an evacuation order was called from the bridge, Anubis was the last one that wanted to leave. He was dedicated to protecting the forces of his allies from danger, but knew that sooner or later he was going to die.
| | | inscriptions= Ancient Peridean Runes |
| | | | markings= Dathomiri Spider-Silk Cloth |
| A power conduit erupted in a fireball, creating an explosion which annihilated the Annedu's right arm and left him incapacitated. While unconscious, he was dragged aboard a small transport by a fellow clan member, who didn't see fit to let one of their own go out in such a way. The craft almost immediately lifted into the air once the doors were closed, and left the ''[[VSD Dark Prophet|Dark Prophet]]'' just before the decompression of the ship began.
| | | purpose= * Dathomirian Relic |
| | | * Combat Weapon |
| The transport barely managed to make it to the ''[[VEN Katarn|Katarn]]'', and Anubis was transferred to the med-bay immediately. He underwent a minor surgery for a prosthetic limb, which would later be modified by the Lorrdian to his own design.
| | | heritage= Dathomirian |
| | | | owners= * Unknown Night Mother |
| When he recovered, the [[Sith]] discovered were he was, and how he had survived the destruction of the ''Prophet''. He took a few hours to take in the information, and returned to active duty. Instead of returning under the banner of [[House Ektrosis|Ektrosis]], he returned to duty under the banner of [[House Archanis|Archanis]], another house in Taldryan. His job was to aid fellow Archanis member [[Itachi Uchiha]] in trying to repair as much of the vessel as they could, though their limits were stretched.
| | * Unknown Nightsisters |
| | | * High Republic Nightbrother |
| When the [[Braata Option]] came into effect soon after Antei fell to the Yuuzhan Vong, Clan Taldryan respectively returned to the [[Kr'Tal System]]. Not soon afterwords, Anubis borrowed one of the clan's few remaining starfighters and left the system.

| After leaving [[Clan Taldryan]], the Lorrdian had nowhere to go. He took up residence on the ''[[VSD Covenant|Covenant]]'', where the bulk of [[Clan Naga Sadow]] had been currently stationed. The clan was returning to the [[Orian System]], which had been their home for years. When they entered the system, they detected another capital ship within the region.
| |
| | |
| After preforming a scan, they determined that it was a ''Victory''-class Star Destroyer. At first, they didn't know who to place the blame upon, until they received word from the planets below that the [[True Brotherhood]] had taken the system as their own, as well as control of the governing planets. Doing the only thing sensible, Clan Naga Sadow launched an attack, hoping to regain control of the Orian system.
| |
| | |
| Anubis had a few roles during the Invasion, the apprentice of [[House Ludo Kressh]] [[Quaestor]] [[Ashia Keibatsu Sadow|Ashia Keibatsu]]. One of his more prominent roles, was helping lead the assault on True Brotherhood forces during the Battle of Tarthos, with fellow Sadowites [[Nero Pennant]] and [[Syrus Korodin|Shuang Long]].
| |
| | |
| While leading the Sadow side of the conflict with his two friends, an incident happened. Nero had been using the lightsaber given to him by his master, [[Trevarus Caerick|Trevarus Sadow]], and accidentally struck the left leg of the Lorrdian.
| |
| | |
| The Annedu had to sit out of the fighting for a while, while he had a low-quality prosthetic replacement attached. Afterwords, he returned to the battlefield in an attempt to continue aiding his allies. The Battle of Tarthos ended a half an hour afterwords, when [[Trevarus Caerick]] seized control of the True Brotherhood's ''Imperial''-class Star Destroyer, the Dark Fusion, and the impostors surrendered.

| {{quote|You are no longer welcome here, fool|''Clan Naga Sadow''}}
| |
| [[Clan Naga Sadow]] reclaimed the [[Orian System]], and the lives of the Sadowites returned to normal. Anubis however, changed. During a conversation with his master,[[Ashia Keibatsu Sadow]], in front of a large portion of the Dark Jedi the clan had, the Lorrdian disrespected the Quaestor, using vulgar and inappropriate language shamelessly. Also, he had gotten into a fight with another member of the clan, Tash. He had struck the fellow Sadowite, and left the area immediately.
| |
| | |
| | |
| It wasn't until later that night, did he realize what he had done. Feeling a wave of disappointment and guilt towards himself, he exiled himself. He left without saying a word to anybody, leaving behind no evidence that would suggest that he had been there. His quarters were completely cleaned up, and he had left no trace at the docking authority of when he departed. He just disappeared.
| |
| | |
| After he had exiled himself, Anubis returned to the home his parents had owned while they were still alive. He hadn't been there since he was a Jedi Padawan, and when he stepped on the premises, remembered that day clear as day. Again, he felt a wave of guilt flow over himself.
| |
| | |
| He shut himself out from the galaxy, and remained at the Annedu homestead most of the time. He walked the few acres of land every few days, seeing what had changed and comparing it to what he had remembered from his time there years ago. The Annedu remained in exile for six months, before taking it upon himself to rejoin the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]]. He didn't return to [[Clan Naga Sadow]] however.
| |
| | |
| === Feud of Galeres & Qel-Droma ===
| |
| {{quote|You're a madman, master|''Anubis Annedu'', speaking to [[Quejo Drakai Xyler|Quejo Drakai]]}}
| |
| The Lorrdian returned to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood as a member of [[House Qel-Droma]], a house in [[Clan Arcona]]. Anubis was assigned House Qel-Droma Quaestor [[Quejo Drakai Xyler|Quejo Drakai]] as a master. Quejo was a former [[House Marka Ragnos]] Quaestor that he had met during his time in Clan Naga Sadow, and had really never gotten the chance to meet. The first week that he was a member of the less prominent house, Clan Envoy [[Rho d'Tana]] assigned him as House Envoy and Rollmaster of Qel-Droma.
| |
| | |
| The Sith took the positions without any words of disbelief, and worked hard at his job. He welcomed several new members into the house, getting them started on their trials to [[Dark Jedi Knight]]. He too worked on the same trials, hoping to gain the rank soon, himself.
| |
| [[Image:DC15Ssidearm.jpg|thumb|right|200px|DC-15S Side Arm Blaster]]
| |
| [[Clan Arcona|Arcona]] was at peace for nearly two months, before something drastically dangerous to the clan happened, that would pit both houses against each other. Quejo learned of Jedi presence on the space station orbiting the core-world of [[starwars:Eclipse|Eclipse]], and wished to eliminate them from existence. He used his status of Quaestor to convince Qel-Dromans that the Jedi must be exterminated.
| |
| | |
| The Sith prepared to launch his attack, confiding in the Consul, [[Mejas Doto]], and Proconsul, [[Sashar Arconae]], in a request for forces. He was denied by the two clan leaders, and told that if he were to pursue his need to have the Jedi exterminated, then he would be stopped.
| |
| | |
| Quejo refused to listen, and prepared to launch an assault anyways. He used the forces he already had control of to do so, using the [[BAC Shadow|Shadow]] and it's compliment. Furious, the Arconan summit sent [[House Galeres]] Quaestor Zandro Erinos to bring the estranged Qel-Droman Quaestor before them. He accepted his task as the task of Galeres without any hesitation, and set out to ruin the life of the Qel-Droma leader.
| |
| | |
| While all of this was happening, Anubis was at his master's side the entire way. He aided in the persuasion of the house, as well as helping the Xyler prepare for the attack. When the fighting began, the Lorrdian wasn't sure anymore if what they were doing was the right thing. Following his instincts however, he remained loyal to [[House Qel-Droma]].
| |
| | |
| The Sith's last mission during the feud was to board the [[BAC Darkest Night|Darkest Night]] as an ally, and sabotage the [[Blue Mist]] fighter craft that were stored aboard. Of course, he did as he was told. When he first arrived aboard the ''Bothan''-class Attack Cruiser, the crew - and his Galerian friends - didn't know if they could trust in him or not.
| |
| | |
| After a few hours, they became aware that he was completely calm, which meant that he couldn't have anything up his sleeves, as it just wasn't like him. They were wrong, as when they left him alone for several minutes, he slipped into the hanger of the cruiser and cutting different lines on each of the fighters that they used. He kept one of the fighters intact however, as it was his means of escape.
| |
| | |
| As he was cutting the last line, a member of the docking crew saw him. They instantly reported the incident over the com-link to all security staff and Dark Jedi, causing the Annedu to have to run for it. He quickly jumped into the fighter he had left in-tact, and took off.
| |
| | |
| Five [[Blue Mist]] team members each jumped into starfighters, and tried to chase after him. Three of the starfighters wouldn't work, as their power lines had been cut. On another, the wires which controlled the flight controls was cut, and on the final fighter, the oxygen line had been cut. With the oxygen line cut, the second that the fighter left the safety of the hanger and passed through the magnetized field, his starfighter decompressed and his life ended without any breathable air.
| |
| [[Image:SeraphYellow.gif|thumb|left|100px|Anubis' Lightsaber]]
| |
| | |
| Knowing what he had done was the right thing to have done, the Sith returned back to the [[BAC Shadow|Shadow]] and reported to his master that the mission was a success. For his actions to aid [[House Qel-Droma|Qel-Droma]], Quejo awarded his apprentice with the title of ''Disciple of Qel-Droma''. It was an honorific title, which symbolized that he, along with [[Debric Santhe d'Tana|Debric d'Tana]], were among the elite of the house. After the feud had finished, and Quejo admitted defeat, the Lorrdian felt the need to return back to where his journey down the Dark Side had first really began, [[Clan Taldryan]]. He returned to the Ektrosis Temple on [[Taruma]].
| |
| | |
| === Return to Taldryan ===
| |
| {{quote|I have returned home.|''Anubis Annedu'', after landing in the Ektrosis Temple}}
| |
| After returning to [[House Ektrosis]], the Annedu was welcomed back into the house by the two leaders he had been under the influence of when he first left, [[Hel-Pa Sklib]] and [[Vodo Biask]]. He was greeted by many others, and took a set of temporary guest quarters on the east side of the temple. Anubis only stayed in that set of quarters for a single night, learning the next day that he had been chosen by the summit to lead the [[Battle Team]] he had first started in, [[Hex]].
| |
| | |
| The Ektrosian gladly took the position, and was moved to a set of quarters with a small office attached. He made himself at home, and got acquainted with everybody in his team. A few of the members, he already knew. Others, he did not.
| |
| | |
| After two months time, he had firmly set himself in as the new [[Tetrarch]] and was putting the team through training exercises. He had seen the way that Arcona's famous [[Soulfire Strike Team]] had trained, and based his exercises off of theirs. He put them through a few different tests, determining if they were better off being pilots, shock troops, or tactical adivsors. Everyone was true to their order.
| |
| | |
| Another three and a half months passed, and there was no action for the team. They began to slack off slightly, fully aware that they hadn't seen action in months. Realizing this himself, Anubis too began to slack off. When [[Vodo Biask|Vodo]] resigned as Aedile of House Ektrosis and [[Taigikori Aybara]] took the mantle, tensions between the summit and the Lorrdian began to form. Arguments began to break out, sometimes for no apparent reason. Neither side wanted to be calm about the situation.
| |
| | |
| The same week that Taigikori took Vodo's place, Anubis recieved a holo-vid from long time friend [[Alaris Jinn]]. The message contained nothing more then friendly discussion about how he was doing. Two weeks later, after marking just over his sixth month back in Taldryan, the Ektrosian made his last decision as a Taldryanite.
| |
| | |
| === War of Ascension ===
| |
| {{quote|By order of Supreme Commander Braecen Kaeth, I hereby command you to stand down your forces and surrender the throne of Morroth peacefully.|''Alex d'Tana'', right before the Invasion of Morroth}}
| |
| The Sith left [[House Ektrosis]] and Taruma, locating the Victory-''class'' star destroyer ''[[VSDII 'Ballista'|Ballista]]'' while it was en-route to the [[Jusadih System]] and ended up with the forces of [[Clan Plagueis]]. He was assigned a lesser then prominent roll during the Invasion of Morroth, forced to stay on the ''Ballista'' in case reinforcements were required. He was given the rank of First Lieutenant, and kept a small strike team ready in case there was a need for back-up. Unfortunately for him, Clan Plagueis forces didn't require a any reinforcements for the Invasion of Morroth to be a success..
| |
| | |
| Anubis was absent for both the Invasions of Aerun and Nintura, as well as the First Battle of Kapsina, having randomly dissapeard from communications with his clan, house, and friends. He went on a mission to find himself, traveling to such planets as Iridonia, Telos, Corellia, and Dantooine in order to do so.
| |
| | |
| The Jedi Hunter was in a different state of mind, and even traveled once to Coruscant, which was being terraformed into Yuuzhan'tar. He went to watch the city change, which was viewed later as a large mistake. The Lorrdian was captured by Yuuzhan Vong forces on his way back to the [[Jusadih System]], and was held captive. When he made his escape in one of the Vong's own Coralskippers, he returned to his quest.
| |
| | |
| [[Image:Anubis-Sithtattoos.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Anubis with his Sith Tattoos]]
| |
| It was during this small exile that Annedu refurbished his set of armour worn by Sith shock troopers during Revan's Sith Empire, as well as got tattoos over his entire body, much resembling those of Sith designs. When he finally returned to [[Clan Plagueis]] and [[Kapsina]], many people had wondered what happened to him. He dismissed their claims of searching for power and wealth, knowing that he just needed some time away.
| |
| | |
| Though his exile was extremely short, he learned that a lot had changed. He was approached by the Consul, [[Braecen Kaeth]], to design the next Jusadih Army. He was advised to use the [[starwars:Imperial_Army|Imperial Army]] as a template for the new legion of soldiers, and did as he was requested. When the design had been finished, he was given the rank of [[Dark Jedi Knight]] and the right to train in the three beginners forms of lightsaber combat, [[Shii-Cho]], [[Makashi]], and [[Soresu]]. Seeing the larger potential in [[Shii-Cho]], he began studying the form intensively.
| |
|
| |
|
| During the Second Battle of Kapsina, Anubis remained on the ''[[FFC 'Perdition'|Perdition]]'', making sure that it was properly delivering power to the Omicron Platform. Though the Sith would have much rather prefered being on board the ''Ballista'' at the time, he was quite content with where he was. He oversaw the power transfers, as well as the battle from the bridge of the ''Perdition''.
| | ===== Design ===== |
| | ''Peridea'' is an ancient Dathomirian lightsaber forged eons ago by one of the first Night Mothers to make the great journey from the Zabrak's inter-galactic ancestral homeworld of Peridea to the planet Dathomir in the Known Galaxy and is named in honor of that ancestral homeworld. It was constructed by the unknown Night Mother partially as a test of her abilities to mix her traditional Magick with the mainstream lightsaber, and could have been considered technologically advanced at that time. |
|
| |
|
| The Lorrdian watched ''[[ISDII 'The Baron'|The Baron]]'' become rippled with blaster fire from the Crimson Tide's own Star Destroyer, the ''Nemisis''. He witnessed the ''Ballista'' launch it's surprise attack from behind Kapsina's only moon, and a torrent of starfighters launch from it's hanger bays. When the Tide fleet began it's retreat into hyperspace, the ''[[INT 'Atrum Pars II'|Atrum Pars II]]'' activated it's gravity well generators, preventing any retreat. | | The hilt design is completely custom made and considered one-of-a-kind, with the casing constructed using a mix of Phrik and traditional Nightsister alloys to create an ichor-imbued Phrik-alloy casing. The weapon bears a weathered look, with dark grey plating and angular lines - including the dagger like emitter shroud. About thirty percent of the hilt is curved for the user's hand, with a multi-activation switch assembly that activates the lightsaber on the inside edge of the concave. Affixed to the weapon is a traditional crimson fabric of Dathomiri Spider-silk woven by the Nightsisters wrapped around around the bottom seventy percent of the hilt, hanging off loosely at the bottom. |
|
| |
|
| He watched the ''Nemisis'' explode from the torrent of turbolaser fire that blasted it apart bit by bit, and was glad that only one final battle remained before the [[Jusadih System]] was returned to the full control of Clan Plagueis. With the Crimson Tide fleet that had exited hyperspace just an hour before wiped out, or nearly wiped out, Anubis took a starfighter back to the ''Ballista'' in order to congraduate his fellow comrades in their excellent work.
| | ===== Unique Characteristics ===== |
| | This weapon is by design a dual-phase lightsaber weapon via a dual-phase emitter matrix, capable of producing a lightsaber blade or firing bolts of lightsaber energy at reduced power compared to the strength of the blade. |
|
| |
|
| ==Personality & Traits==
| | When activated in its primary mode using the main portion of the multi-activation switch the ancient Peridean runes along the upper most portion of the emitter shroud - which is angular in design instead of round like a traditional lightsaber - begin to glow an ichor-green, with the emitter producing a sword blade shape similar to the [https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Darksaber ''Darksaber'']. The outer edges as well as the bottom half of the blade's core are a sickly ichor-green and put off a green smoke, with the ichor-green in the core fading to an onyx black further away from the emitter matrix. |
|
| |
|
| ==Strength's & Weakness'==
| | When a lightsaber bolt is fired in its secondary mode using the second portion of the multi-activation switch the ancient Peridean runes pulse an ichor green whenever the Tainted Nightsister Crystal is harnessed, with a bolt of ichor-green colored and weakend lightsaber energy then launching from the emitter. |
|
| |
|
| ==Possesions== | | ===== History ===== |
| === Custom Sith Armor === | |
|
| |
|
| After reading scripts and watching short holo-logs about Revan's Sith Empire during some of his studies aboard the [[Arcanum]], Anubis became very fascinated. After a while, he sought out a set of armor from that era, and looked to restore it. He was hardly successfull, recovering a set that looked as though it had been lying in the weather for thousands of years; which it had. After drawing a render of what a full suit would look like from what he had seen, the Sith began the restoration.
| | ====== Prior to Ownership Under Zxyl Bes'uliik ====== |
| [[Image:9056wb.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Anubis' Dark Jedi Knight Warbanner]]
| | ''Peridea'' was constructed on the planet Dathomir thousands of years ago by an Unknown Night Mother after her journey from the lightsaber's namesake to Dathomir and the emergence of stable light-weapon technologies, believing that although their Shadow Magick was unique and strong that they needed to be prepared for any threat against their coven. She forged it using a diamond-shaped kyber crystal corrupted by her Magick as its heart and a unique combination of Phrik and ichor-imbued traditional Nightsister metal to form a Phrik-alloy casing as its outer shell. |
|
| |
|
| Each piece of armor plating was cut to the renders specifications, using light titanium alloy. When all of the plating was completed and finished, the Sith took it upon himself to equip it with a few modern technologies. In order to pay for the whole thing, he had to sell a lot of other things, including his homestead on [[starwars:Corellia|Corellia]].
| | Although the weapon was decried as heretical by her fellow sisters, the Night Mother retained ownership for nearly a century before her demise of old age, at which point the weapon passed to her daughter. This ownership cycle continued with the weapon remaining relatively unused and kept as a family artifact. During the High Republic its owner, a Nightsister in the upper echelons of their coven, passed the weapon to her mate after he won her hand in a performance of the arena. A slave captured from a rival Dathomiri clan, she broke traditional Nightsister coven norms by engaging in a full marriage with the Zabrak male. Her mate fully devoted himself to the ways of the Nightbrothers, using Peridea in countless skirmishes to dominate his opponents and realise the potential of the dual-phase lightsaber. He used it to eventually take leadership of the Nightbrothers, whom he and his Nightsister wife kept subordinate to the Nightsister witches. |
|
| |
|
| === Blasters ===
| | Prior to their deaths the lightsaber - ancient by this time - was locked away in a hidden redoubt in the Dathomir wastelands The redoubt was found by Zxyl Bes'uliik centuries later during 41 ABY after one of his expeditions to his home planet and taken by him to serve as a mark of and to honor his Dathomiri heritage. |

| Anubis carries around a set of twin [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/DC-15s_side_arm_blaster DC-15s side arm blasters] around with him, in the two holsters attached to the belt of his armor. The DC-15S blasters were produced by the large corporation BlasTech Industries for the Grand Army of the Republic, which is also refered to as the "clone army". The pistols come in handy, providing a steady flow of ammunition when the Lorrdian needs it most.
| | ==== ''Rang'kad'' '''(Dual-Phase Hidden Lightsaber Vambrace)''' ==== |
|
| |
|
| These blasters weren't as powerful as the full version, the [[starwars:DC-15S_blaster|DC-15S blaster carbine]], but they recharged at a steady and even rate. The DC-15s pistols can fire a maximum of several rounds a second, and featured the look of a slug thrower for easier concealment and holstering. The Annedu acquired the two blasters after the completion of his armor in late 29 ABY.

|
| When [[Sarin|Darth Sarin]] announced that members of the Dark Brotherhood ranked [[Protector]] and above could wield a stock lightsaber named the ''Armoury Saber'' Anubis was one of the first to trade in his training saber and grab one of the new lightsabers available to him. He chose one with a red blade, to show his fealty to the [[Sith|Sith Order]].
| | = How to Write = |
|
| |
|
| When the Lorrdian reached [[Dark Jedi Knight|Knighthood]], he returned the ''Armoury Saber'' and constructed his own hilt, using plans from one of the Herald's designs as a guide through it's assembly. Instead of using a red, treated Adgean crystal like the traditional Sith did in the building of their blades, the Plaugeian chose a different path. Following the color of his warbanner, he located a crystal that emitted an acid-yellow blade when activated. After testing the lightsaber to make sure that it functioned correctly, Anubis had it inspected. When the inspection was complete, the [[Sith]] attached the polished hilt of the weapon to his belt.
| | == Demeanor == |
| | Zxyl is quiet, cold, and a bit calculating. He speaks with purpose, does not surgar=coat what he says (although is still respectful). He is an avid follower of the Way of the Mandalore and Mandalorian Creed, and shows both physical and verbal contempt for those that opt to break the tenants of the Mandalorian Creed. This Dathomirian-Mandalorian always believes his way is best - he is who he is, and that's who he is. |
|
| |
|
| ===Warbanner===
| | When speaking, Zxyl's always helmet-modulated voice is joined by a dark, ethereal echo similar to that of the Dathomirian Mother Talzin. This was the result of the infusion of Dathomirian Magick into his soul following a fatal blow dealt to him by Tahiri Tarentae during the Immortal Sith roleplaying storyline on his birth world of Dathomir, used to bring him back to life. |
|
| |
|
| When Anubis became a Dark Jedi Knight, new warbanner options became available to him. He customized it to his personally liking, and ordered it from the office of the [[Herald]], [[Shikyo Keibatsu]]. Within a few days, it was delivered to his exact specification to his room. He hung it on the wall, the Plagueis crest standing out strong against the acid-yellow color.
| | == The Creed & Way of the Mandalore == |
| | Bes'ulii is a follower of the ''Way of the Mandalore'' Mandalorian religion. While he holds no ill will towards those that follow the ''Orthodox Mandalorian'' religion and remove their helmets, he refuses to do so himself under any circumstance. He will die before he removes his helmet. He is a stringent follower of the several tenants of the ''Mandalorian Creed'', and has been known to become openly hostile to so-called Mandalorians who opt to break the ''Creed'' or dishonor the Mandalorian people and fail to atone for their actions. As Clan Bes'uliik's ''Naur'alor'' he is an incredible wealth of knowledge on the Mandalorian people.. |

Character Sheet
|

He is an enigmatic figure of two unique heritages, born on the desolate planet Dathomir before being cast out into the wild lands and rescued by the Mandalorians of Clan Bes'uliik, who adopted him as a Foundling and brought him to their ancestral homeworld of Nau'ur where he was instructed in their ancient knowledge of beskar forging practices, cultures, lore, and combat and war tactics.
He is an incredible weaponsmith and Mandalorian Armorer, blending knowledge of arcane forging practices with that of those of the Mandalorians and Perideans. He has allies across the Brotherhood, including Voice of the Brotherhood Idris Adenn, who recruited him to the Brotherhood after spending time together as bounty hunters on the Outer Rim world of Batuu.
Bes'uliik has the distinction of being the longest serving Regent of the Brotherhood before he was succeeded by Thran Occasus Palpatine, and one of if not only known Scions of Taldryan to have given up the Clan Taldryan namesake of Taldrya to pursue his own ends away Taldryan. He has served in a variety of positions, including the first Praetor to the Regent, Taldryan Proconsul, Naur'alor of Clan Bes'uliik, and straight up badass.
Biography
Knowledge, Abilities & Traits
Knowledge
Zxyl contains a vast myriad of knowledge across several topics and both the Mandalorian and Dathomirian cultures through years of intense training, research, and indoctrination.
Having been raised by the Mandalorian Armorers of the hidden beskar-veined Mandalorian world Nau'ur as a Foundling, Bes'uliik is familiar with the ancient history, cultures, and lore of his adoptive people including the Mandalorian Code and Way of the Mandalore. He was instructed in a vast array of Mandalorian-related topics during his adolescence including but not explicitly limited to their ancient forging practices of beskar, Mandalorian combat tactics and war histories, advanced metallurgy and experimental engineering. He has been known to use this knowledge to guide and aid wayward Mandalorians, acting as a steward for any that require the knowledge he has. He is incredibly knowledgeable in the Mandalorian Creed, Way of the Mandalore, and various Mandalorian Codes such as the Mandalorian Code of Combat.
Despite his indoctrination into the Mandalorian religion, to which he has a strong preference given his tumultuous history on the planet Dathomir, this genetically-altered Dathomirian has not forgotten his heritage and where he came from. He has learned the ancient culture and lore of the Dathomirian people, including the ancient forging techniques and practices used on the Zabrak's ancestral homeworld of Peridea, as well as their Magick.
Zxyl Bes'uliik uses his knowledge to gain advantage, lead the Mandalorians of Clan Bes'uliik who follow him, and forge both alliances and gear. He is fluent in several languages, such as Ancient Mando'a and Dadita used by the Mandalorians, Peridean as used by the Dathomirians, the general Zabraki language, Galactic Basic, Binary, and the ancient Sith language of ur-Kittât.
Abilities
Bes'uliik has near unparalleled skills inside a forge, a master of crafting. He is incredibly adept in arcane, ancient Dathomirian, and ancient Mandalorian forging techniques, and he can craft nearly any article - of war or otherwise - desired by those that request and are worthy of his services as The Naur'alor. the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a member of Clan Bes'uliik - which he now leads since their reformation. He has used his incredible skills as a Mandalorian Armorer to craft various armors for Mandalorians across the Brotherhood, including the likes of Idris Adenn, Appius Wight, both of whom he considers brothers, and others. He has crafted numerous things, and spends most of his time behind a workbench.
As a Dathomirian by birth, Zxyl can rely on his incredibly limited practical knowledge of ancient Shadow Magick to assist in things such as looking into the future, amplifying his natural abilities beyond their normal capabilities, and moving objects with telekinesis. He is a natural born leader, deploying his high intellect acumen and leadership skills to lead those that follow him with resolute honor that supersedes even his own desires.
Like most Nightbrothers - and Mandalorians - he has a penchant for combat and is able to deploy a wide range of combat abilities, tactics, and weapons to combat his enemies, using his incredible resolve to stay resolute in even the most toughest of battles or wars. The Mandalorian General is a capable lightsaber duellist who has intensively studied the Vapaad and Djem So lightsaber forms, and frequently uses his various light-weapons such as his triple-phase lightsaber and hidden lightsaber vambrace to deadly effect. While he has also learned the ancient art of Trakata, Bes'uliik does not rely solely on light-weapons as his only means of combat; capable of deploying a myriad of weapons effectively such as blasters, his gravity hammer and custom Mandalorian vambrace, as well as bladed weapons to deadly effect, often dual-wielding his assorted weaponry.
Although relatively on par with the physicality of a seasoned soldier, Bes'uliik is astonishingly strong and can deploy that might at a moments notice, earning him the title of The Breaker of Bones.
Equipment
The equipment listed here is Zxyl's most used equipment, although he is not strictly limited to this list and often deploys whatever equipment is most suitable for a given situation.
Traditional Mandalorian Equipment
Ancient Mandalorian Beskar'gam
Originally crafted by a long-dead member of Clan Bes'uliik for an ancient Manda'lor, the armor was returned to the ancestral homeworld of Zxyl's clan eons ago. When he finally graduated from Foundling to full fledged Mandalorian he was gifted the armor by his adoptive father, Krast Bes'uliik, to which the younger Bes'uliik modified to suit his purpose. The armor itself has gone through three major iterations since his first interaction with the Brotherhood, starting from its initial form to the armor he presently wears - consistently pulling from ancient Mandalorian designs and armors as he continously upgrades and modifies it to suit his abilities, standing, and crafting acumen. The present armor is a heavily custom armored beskar exoskeleton, and eschews a few traditional Mandalorian pieces for those that are completely custom. His armor does not bear the Ka'rta (or Mandalorian Iron Heart) in its typical place on his chestplate, as it is formed from three separate pieces. Instead the Iron Heart is located in a buckle on a strap used to secure the large pauldrons of ancient Manda'lors to his chestplate.
His helmet also follows the designs of ancient Manda'lors such as Mandalore the Ultimate, primarily gold in color with an underlying dark gunmetal grey piece that forms the main shell of the helmet. Expandable slots for his beskar and cerakote-crafted horns that open and close around them to seal the helmet from atmospheric pressure changes have been integrated into the "crown", allowing him to wear the helmet. The suit is crafted entirely from the purest alloys of the rare metal beskar and is both lightsaber resistant and capable of entering through all classes of atmospheres during an orbital drop, offering near unparalleled protection to the wearer. It is synced with his custom Mandalorian Vambrace Gauntlet to offer a unique armor combination.
Zxyl's beskar'gam is entirely unique to him and him alone, featuring a design not seen anywhere else. Several unique upgrades have been made to the once archaic armor to bring it in line with his own rigiorus standards such as knee-pad rocket darts, a specialized utility arm hidden in one of the pauldrons to assist him in a multitude of technical tasks, and a miniaturized hypermatter reactor built into the chestplate to power the armor. An artificial intelligence system has been integrated into the helmet, and has access to the wide range of sensors present in the beskar'gam. The Helpful Artificial Lackey (or H.A.L.) can control all armor systems including his jetpack, either solely at its own loyal discretion or Bes'uliik's command. It can communicate with him both verbally through spoken word or visually through indicators, alerts, and text on his heads-up display.

Design
Peridea is an ancient Dathomirian lightsaber forged eons ago by one of the first Night Mothers to make the great journey from the Zabrak's inter-galactic ancestral homeworld of Peridea to the planet Dathomir in the Known Galaxy and is named in honor of that ancestral homeworld. It was constructed by the unknown Night Mother partially as a test of her abilities to mix her traditional Magick with the mainstream lightsaber, and could have been considered technologically advanced at that time.
The hilt design is completely custom made and considered one-of-a-kind, with the casing constructed using a mix of Phrik and traditional Nightsister alloys to create an ichor-imbued Phrik-alloy casing. The weapon bears a weathered look, with dark grey plating and angular lines - including the dagger like emitter shroud. About thirty percent of the hilt is curved for the user's hand, with a multi-activation switch assembly that activates the lightsaber on the inside edge of the concave. Affixed to the weapon is a traditional crimson fabric of Dathomiri Spider-silk woven by the Nightsisters wrapped around around the bottom seventy percent of the hilt, hanging off loosely at the bottom.
Unique Characteristics
This weapon is by design a dual-phase lightsaber weapon via a dual-phase emitter matrix, capable of producing a lightsaber blade or firing bolts of lightsaber energy at reduced power compared to the strength of the blade.
When activated in its primary mode using the main portion of the multi-activation switch the ancient Peridean runes along the upper most portion of the emitter shroud - which is angular in design instead of round like a traditional lightsaber - begin to glow an ichor-green, with the emitter producing a sword blade shape similar to the Darksaber. The outer edges as well as the bottom half of the blade's core are a sickly ichor-green and put off a green smoke, with the ichor-green in the core fading to an onyx black further away from the emitter matrix.
When a lightsaber bolt is fired in its secondary mode using the second portion of the multi-activation switch the ancient Peridean runes pulse an ichor green whenever the Tainted Nightsister Crystal is harnessed, with a bolt of ichor-green colored and weakend lightsaber energy then launching from the emitter.
History
Prior to Ownership Under Zxyl Bes'uliik
Peridea was constructed on the planet Dathomir thousands of years ago by an Unknown Night Mother after her journey from the lightsaber's namesake to Dathomir and the emergence of stable light-weapon technologies, believing that although their Shadow Magick was unique and strong that they needed to be prepared for any threat against their coven. She forged it using a diamond-shaped kyber crystal corrupted by her Magick as its heart and a unique combination of Phrik and ichor-imbued traditional Nightsister metal to form a Phrik-alloy casing as its outer shell.
Although the weapon was decried as heretical by her fellow sisters, the Night Mother retained ownership for nearly a century before her demise of old age, at which point the weapon passed to her daughter. This ownership cycle continued with the weapon remaining relatively unused and kept as a family artifact. During the High Republic its owner, a Nightsister in the upper echelons of their coven, passed the weapon to her mate after he won her hand in a performance of the arena. A slave captured from a rival Dathomiri clan, she broke traditional Nightsister coven norms by engaging in a full marriage with the Zabrak male. Her mate fully devoted himself to the ways of the Nightbrothers, using Peridea in countless skirmishes to dominate his opponents and realise the potential of the dual-phase lightsaber. He used it to eventually take leadership of the Nightbrothers, whom he and his Nightsister wife kept subordinate to the Nightsister witches.
Prior to their deaths the lightsaber - ancient by this time - was locked away in a hidden redoubt in the Dathomir wastelands The redoubt was found by Zxyl Bes'uliik centuries later during 41 ABY after one of his expeditions to his home planet and taken by him to serve as a mark of and to honor his Dathomiri heritage.

How to Write
Demeanor
Zxyl is quiet, cold, and a bit calculating. He speaks with purpose, does not surgar=coat what he says (although is still respectful). He is an avid follower of the Way of the Mandalore and Mandalorian Creed, and shows both physical and verbal contempt for those that opt to break the tenants of the Mandalorian Creed. This Dathomirian-Mandalorian always believes his way is best - he is who he is, and that's who he is.
When speaking, Zxyl's always helmet-modulated voice is joined by a dark, ethereal echo similar to that of the Dathomirian Mother Talzin. This was the result of the infusion of Dathomirian Magick into his soul following a fatal blow dealt to him by Tahiri Tarentae during the Immortal Sith roleplaying storyline on his birth world of Dathomir, used to bring him back to life.
The Creed & Way of the Mandalore
Bes'ulii is a follower of the Way of the Mandalore Mandalorian religion. While he holds no ill will towards those that follow the Orthodox Mandalorian religion and remove their helmets, he refuses to do so himself under any circumstance. He will die before he removes his helmet. He is a stringent follower of the several tenants of the Mandalorian Creed, and has been known to become openly hostile to so-called Mandalorians who opt to break the Creed or dishonor the Mandalorian people and fail to atone for their actions. As Clan Bes'uliik's Naur'alor he is an incredible wealth of knowledge on the Mandalorian people..
Those writing Bes'uliik should study up on the Mandalorian Creed and Way of the Mandalore, as they are core tenants of his personality and how he conducts himself - especially in the presence of other Mandalorians and how he judges their own actions.
Respect
Zxyl Bes'uliik seeks to earn the respect of others, and offers the same level of respect in return. If someone slights him, he will not immediately react to it, but continued slights will damage their standing with the Mandalorian General and risk pushing their relationship with him to the brink of no-return. Those that lose his respect must work hard to get it back, and Bes'uliik treats them in accordance with the level of respect they have earned. Simply having a title or being someone important matters almost nought to him, his respect is based solely on their actions.
Combat
This Mandalorian General is fluent in several forms of combat, with feats and allocated skill points that bring most of the weapon skills on his character sheet to the Master (+5) level such as Blasters, Lightsaber, Blunt Weapons, and Miscellaneous Weapons.
Zxyl uses his Proficient (+3) Dual Wielding skill to frequently field two different weapons in his arsenal at the same time, whether it be his vambraces or handheld weapons. While not always the case, he uses his arsenal to the greatest effect it can have in a given combat situation. He primarily operates with blaster weaponry (such as his custom WESTAR-35 Blaster Pistol or one of his vambrace weapons) when in long ranged situations, and for close quarters combat relies primarily on one of his light-weapons - though he is known to field a beskar gravity hammer and lightsaber resistant bladed weapons when light-weapons aren't overly necessary. He deploys his dual-phase hidden lightsaber vambrace at the most opportune times and typically strikes with it when his opponent least expects it, and regularly uses the various phases of his triple-phase lightsaber and ancient Dathomirian light-sword to overwhelm and keep opponents on
He keeps a solid hold of his emotions during combat, very rarely losing his cool, and isn't afraid to use Shadow Magick to amplify his natural abilities.
