Tacitus Athanasius is a battleteam located in a hidden base within the mountains of Caina. Founded by Shadow Nighthunter in 34 ABY, the unit's purpose is to take out all threats to the House silently, serving as the silent and secret dagger for the House when given the orders. Members of the House deemed worthy by the leader are allowed to join in after swearing an oath of secrecy.
First Battleteam Leader, Shadow Nighthunter
Founder
Shadow Nighthunter was both founder and first leader of Tacitus Athanasius. Being an assassin herself, the Sith saw need of a unit that went after those that perhaps the House wasn't able to go after. When a survivor of the League of Liberation had attempted to take out the Quaestor, it was Shadow who thwarted the attempt in time. Thus was Tacitus Athanasius born under the leadership of Shadow and her sister and former apprentice, Alara Deathbane.
Sergeant Alara Deathbane
Location
Tacitus Athanasius is located at Silent Death Citadel, atop the frost covered mountains of Caina. Though the full layout of the citadel is only known by TA assassins, images have been leaked of the main hall and the elusive ritual chamber. The mountaintop lair is complete with dormitories for its assassins, training halls, a library, animal quarters, a docking bay, a landing bay and stable-like area for Sergeant Alara's ruping Forren, and an armory.
Rendevous points have been placed within city limits that the Tacitus Athanasius assassins have needed to keep their eyes on for the Quaestor.
Early History
Battle Team Tacitus Athanasius was founded in 34 ABY by Warrior Shadow Nighthunter in House Excidium, Scholae Palatinae. Under Quaestor Lucyeth, Shadow was ordered to destroy the survivors menacing League of Liberation; a league tormenting House Excidium ever since its birth.
First Test
Just starting anew under the leadership of Shadow and Alara, the sisters sent their assassins to eliminate three mercenaries working for the survivor of the LoL. The mercs went under the names of Snake, Crow, and Scorpion; of which was a Twi'lek assassin, a former crime lord of a Zabrak, and a Mandalorian bounty hunter. It was a test for the members of TA to see who would kill the mercs first, and Brandon Tarsus was the one to land the fatal blow. At least, so it was thought. Unknown to Shadow, Scorpion was an old friend of the Palatinean merc, and was allowed to live. Scorpion would later send forth a group of Mandalorian bounty hunters to take out the battle team leader, only to fail.
The Removal of the Sergeant
Overtime, it was decided within the clans by the Dark Council that Sergeant would no longer be an official position, and Alara was removed of her title. However, she continues to act as Shadow's honorary second.
Functions of Tacitus Athanasius
The Shadows of Tacitus Athanasius
In truth, the battle team is a rumored shadow of Excidium, with only its members and the Quaestor knowing of its existence. Shadow tends to be the Quaestor's eyes and ears in Caina and Ohmen City of Judecca, and will warn the Quaestor of possible threats and targets. Though the team is fully under Shadow's watch, the Quaestor will use the team to take out unusual and extremely dangerous threats to Excidium with the use of a target board.
The Darkstrike Order and Other Responsibilities
However, under the most dire circumstances, Shadow has the authority initiate the Darkstrike Order to send her assassins to take out the Quaestor or any member of Excidium should enough concrete evidence of betrayal be presented. The battle team leader also has the authority to take over Excidium in extreme cases including the death or abduction of both Quaestor and Aedile. However, to maintain the secrecy of the battle team, Shadow will choose to have a representative speak on her behalf. This doesn't mean she will not enforce order herself should order be broken. This leadership is temporary, and will last until a new House summit is selected.
Joining the Darkness
Possible recruits for TA normally receive sudden messages from the leader herself. These messages give subtle directions regarding the mission, or test, that the person must accomplish. These missions test cunning, stamina, strength, slyness, and the spirit as well as mental strength. Should the initiate survive the mission, a ritual performed by TA members and their leader is provided. The members will each ask a question to the recruit, and should he or she answer truly, they are welcomed to the shadowy embrace of Tacitus Athanasius.
