| | | Shiran was born in 9 ABY to the Kast, a group of nomadic peoples originally native to [[starwars:Katarr|Katarr]], the Miralukan colony world that was rendered barren and lifeless by [[starwars:Darth Nihlus|Darth Nihlus]] during the [[starwars:First Jedi Purge|First Jedi Purge]] in 3952 BBY. Having become stranded on [[starwars:Alpheridies|Alpheridies]], the Kast wander the plains, steppes and deserts of most of the southern continents. Because of their heritage, they have a deep respect for the Living Force and the Jedi, seeing them as saviors against the Dark Side – whose awesome destructive power they know only too well. |
| Shiran was born 9 ABY in Kast, a small remote city in the mountains of [[starwars:Alpheridies|Alpheridies]] notable for its harsh climate, inhospitable people and that everyone in the city is descended from refugees of [[starwars:Katarr|Katarr]], the Miralukan colony world that was rendered barren and lifeless by [[starwars:Darth Nihlus|Darth Nihlus]] during the [[starwars:First Jedi Purge|First Jedi Purge]] in 3952 BBY. Stranded on Alpheridies, these Katarri refugees settled in the mountains and became a closed, isolated community that gave the Force the same kind of respect that someone would give a vicious animal that has bitten them; Keep your distance, and never let any of them near you. Any member of their community found to be strong enough in the Force to be able to manipulate it would immediately be sentenced to death by exile, but the local Jedi caught wind of this practice and regularly patrol the mountains around Kast in order to pick up survivors and potential recruits. | | Before his fifth birthday, Shiran and his older sister Cever were both found to be strong in the Force, and following their traditions both of them were inducted into a local Jedi Academy to learn the ways of the Force, where Shiran was apprenticed under the Human Master Orett. Shiran proved to be a gifted but arrogant and headstrong student, often disobeying orders and going his own way. This attitude did not make him any friends in the Academy, and what started as a rivalry between Shiran and the other students became a bitter feud. |
| | |
| So it went for Shiran that as a young boy he was found to be strong in the Force, and after being ripped from his family he was exiled. He wandered for a few days before being picked up by a local patrol and brought to a Jedi Academy in another province far away, where he would begin learning the ways of the Force. He was apprenticed under another Miraluka named Orett, but Shiran proved to be a gifted but difficult student. Bitter at having been forced to leave everything behind that he loved, he became headstrong and often disobeyed orders. This attitude did not make him any friends in the Academy, and what started as a rivalry between Shiran and the other students became a bitter feud.

| In 24 ABY, at the age of 15, Shiran and a dozen of his fellow students were assigned a training mission to capture a criminal who had gone into hiding on Alpheridies, Shiran disobeyed orders and elected to kill this criminal instead of capturing him. Angry with Shiran for his disobedience and afraid of reprisals from the Academy, the other students attacked Shiran before he could complete his task. The battle raged for hours, leaving the criminal enough time to escape while Shiran defended himself from his fellow students. When the smoke cleared, Shiran's quarry had fled, he had killed four of his fellow students, and gravely injured many more. One of them managed to get a message to Master Orett letting him know what had happened; Shiran's fate was sealed. | | In 24 ABY, at the age of 15, Shiran and a dozen of his fellow students were assigned a training mission to capture a criminal who had gone into hiding on Alpheridies, Shiran disobeyed orders and elected to kill this criminal instead of capturing him.

| Panicked, Shiran fled Alpheridies with his Master hot on his heels. Shiran and Orett battled in space above Alpheridies, but Shiran managed to damage the life support and engines on Orett's fighter, leaving him to die as Shiran escaped to hyperspace. With the deaths of his fellow students and his Master on his conscience, Shiran again wandered through space for months before he received a vision, showing him a star system he'd never seen before. The vision was of the [[Antei]] system, home of the [[Dark Brotherhood]]. | | Panicked, Shiran fled Alpheridies with his Master hot on his heels.

| Shiran followed his vision and travelled to Antei, joining the Dark Brotherhood. Training at the Shadow Academy was a completely new experience for Shiran. His former allegiance to the Light made him a target for both the instructors and his fellow students. He was frequently ambushed and attacked by fellow students or given seemingly impossible tasks to complete by his instructors only to have to endure days of torture as punishment. In order to survive, Shiran had to rely on being stealthy, vicious, and able to outsmart the other apprentices. He was often able to outmaneuver them, relying of a sense of stealth and using the surroundings to his advantage whenever possible. | | Shiran followed his vision and travelled to Antei, joining the Dark Brotherhood.

Character History
Early Life
- "Do not remember the destruction of Katarr. Remember what it taught you instead."

Shiran was born in 9 ABY to the Kast, a group of nomadic peoples originally native to Katarr, the Miralukan colony world that was rendered barren and lifeless by Darth Nihlus during the First Jedi Purge in 3952 BBY.

Shiran followed his vision and travelled to Antei, joining the Dark Brotherhood. Training at the Shadow Academy was a completely new experience for Shiran. His former allegiance to the Light made him a target for both the instructors and his fellow students. He was frequently ambushed and attacked by fellow students or given seemingly impossible tasks to complete by his instructors only to have to endure days of torture as punishment. In order to survive, Shiran had to rely on being stealthy, vicious, and able to outsmart the other apprentices. He was often able to outmaneuver them, relying of a sense of stealth and using the surroundings to his advantage whenever possible.
After his training, Shiran was assigned to the Obelisk Order to serve House Marka Ragnos. His skill in battle, tactical ability and potential power in the Force quickly brought him to the attention of several Dark Jedi as an Apprentice. Most notable among these was Trevarus Caerick, who took the Miraluka under his wing as his Apprentice. Training under Caerick was tougher than he could ever imagine, given the power that he had. In this time Shiran was subjected to battle training that lasted for weeks at a time. When he wasn't training he was in one of Caerick's many libraries - studying the history of the Dark Side.
The training paid off, and in 27 ABY Shiran was inducted into the Night Hawks, sharing leadership of the battle-team with Faeril Munlear when fate conspired to test Shiran's resolve yet again. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded Dark Brotherhood space in 28 ABY Shiran became acutely aware of the hole in the Force that Vong have. Fighting a terrifying enemy that has no connection to the Force was Shiran's baptism by fire. Travelling with Master Caerick and two other apprentices, Shiran fought through the Naga Sadow flagship, which had been boarded, down to the starfighter docks. Flying down to the surface of Antei to continue the fight, Shiran fought on the front lines - he was a whirling dervish on the battlefield, attacking without regard for either his own or his companion's safety. The battle lasted for hours, culminating in Shiran inflicting a serious injury on one of his friends, and the retreat of the Dark Brotherhood into the Shroud.
