Dark Crusades, Fading Light, Great Jedi War XI

"To understand the Dark Brotherhood's current position, one would be remiss to dismiss the past. The Dark Council has seen many changes and shifts, but at its core remains the same. They might seem small at first, but overtime they have coalesced into a singular vision driven by one man’s ambition and desire for order. These are the changes that have inevitably lead us to our current course. To pinpoint their origin, one would need to go back to the start of the Dark Crusades, I suppose. That is as good of a place as any to start."

―Farrin Xies, Headmaster, 35 ABY

A summary of the Dark Crusade, Fading Light, and Eleventh Great Jedi War

Synopsis

• Read the Plaintext version here.
• The Brotherhood mobilizes against a new foe known as the “One Sith.” This would become known as the Dark Crusades and Fading Light.
• Dark Crusade planets: Krayiss II, Nfolgai, Bhargebba, Ch’Hodos, Ashas Ree, Athiss, Svolten, Jaguada, Kalsunor, Korriz, Dromund Kaas, Ziost.
• Fading Light Planets: Bosthirda, Begeren, and Nicht Ka.
• The Clans and Houses of the Brotherhood utilized all the forces at their command to decimate the One Sith forces and compete against their rivals within the Brotherhood itself. After capturing a planet and repelling the One Sith, the Dark Council was supposed to award stewardship of the planets to the unit they believed contributed most to the victory.
• Darth Esoteric is the leader of the One Sith and the primary antagonist for the Dark Crusade.
• Muz Ashen tries to gather artifacts from each conquered planet in an attempt to execute a sacred ritual (the Rite of Obscuration) that will grant him immortality.
• The Brotherhood fractures into three parts: those loyal to protecting Muz while he completes the Rite, those loyal to Jac Cotelin in stopping Muz, and Darth Esoteric’s anarchist approach to take control away from the Grand Masters.
• The Rite is prevented, but Antei is destroyed in the process.
• Muz and Jac make a tentative peace. Muz steps down as Grand Master.
• DGM Pravus assumes the Throne.
• Esoteric is revealed to be Lord Marshal Damon Nix—Pravus’ right hand and a plant within the One Sith organization that allowed the Brotherhood to win skirmish after skirmish with relatively little loss.
• Grand Master Darth Pravus begins to lay the groundwork for his New Order.
