Nobilus (/ˈnōbəl-əs/; born REDACTED) is a Zabrak male and a secretive Sith Assassin whose early life is shrouded in mystery. It is speculated that he was born on either Iridonia or Dathomir, and not much is known about his past as it has been purged from all records and databases. Any trace of his family or upbringing has been redacted and wiped from all databases, adding to the aura of secrecy and danger surrounding him.

Nobilus is a man of few words, preferring to keep his thoughts and emotions to himself. His quiet demeanor and intense focus make him an enigma to those around him. Some speculate that his training as a Sith Assassin has contributed to his secretive nature, while others believe that he values solitude. Despite his guarded personality, Nobilus is a skilled and deadly operative, feared by his enemies and respected by his fellows. His unknown past only adds to his air of mystery, leaving many wondering what secrets lie beneath his stoic exterior.

Biography

Pre-Brotherhood (??? – 31 ABY)

Early Life

Nobilus's early life is shrouded in mystery, with almost no information on his upbringing or family. Any records that may have existed have been systematically redacted and wiped from all known databases, leaving only speculation and rumor in their place. Some have suggested that he was taken in by a guild of assassins at a young age, trained in the ways of the Force and the art of stealth and elimination. Others believe that he may have been orphaned as a child and left to fend for himself on the streets of an unknown planet, where he honed his survival skills and natural abilities. There are even wilder theories that Nobilus may be a product of some sinister Sith experiment designed to create the ultimate assassin.

Despite the lack of concrete information about his early life, it is clear that Nobilus's upbringing has profoundly impacted his personality and view of the galaxy and the powers within. He is a man of few words, preferring to keep his thoughts and emotions to himself. His guarded demeanor and intense focus have led some to speculate that he was trained in espionage and deception from a young age, perhaps even before he could walk. Whatever the truth of his past, it is clear that Nobilus's life has been one of secrecy, danger, and violence, and he has emerged from it as a formidable and deadly Sith Assassin.

Many believe that Nobilus's secretive nature may result from the trauma resulting from experiences in his past. The redaction of his personal history has left him with a sense of displacement, not knowing who he truly is or where he comes from. Some speculate that he may have been separated from his family at a young age, perhaps even due to the actions of a rival clan or organization. Others wonder if he may have lost everything he had and held dear in some catastrophic event, leaving him with only the cold comfort of his thoughts and the pursuit of vengeance to fill the void.

Unusual Size

Regardless of the speculation and rumor surrounding his early life, one thing is clear: Nobilus is a master of his craft, a Sith Assassin feared and respected by his peers. His training has left him with unique skills, making him a formidable opponent for anyone who crosses his path. His past may be shrouded in mystery, but his present and future are marked by his unwavering devotion to the dark side of the Force and his determination to carry out his deadly missions with ruthless efficiency. Given the limited information about his past, there is much speculation surrounding Nobilus's physical characteristics. Some have noted that Nobilus is unusually tall for a Zabrak, standing well above the average height for his species. This has led to rumors that he may have undergone a similar transformation to the one experienced by Savage Opress, a former Nightsister ally of the Sith Lord, Darth Maul.

Savage's transformation resulted from the Nightsisters' use of dark magic, which increased his size, strength, and durability. It is unclear if Nobilus underwent a similar transformation or if his height is a genetic anomaly. However, given his connection to the remnants of the Nightsisters and his training under the guild of assassins, it is not outside the realm of possibility that Nobilus underwent some form of physical enhancement to better serve his role as a Sith Assassin. Regardless of the truth behind his physical characteristics, Nobilus's height and imposing presence only add to his already fearsome reputation. He is a figure to be reckoned with physically and mentally, and his adversaries ignore him at their peril.

Relationships

Jaa "Bucky" Felaeon

Jedi Apprentice Felaeon

The relationship between Nobilus and his first apprentice, Jaa "Bucky" Felaeon, was tense and ultimately ended in tragedy. Nobilus, with his preference for ruthless efficiency and action, found himself perpetually exasperated with Bucky's arrogant demeanor and lackadaisical approach toward their shared mission. Bucky's overbearing self-confidence and seemingly inherent laziness contrasted with Nobilus's relentless pursuit of power and progress, resulting in a discordant mentor-apprentice dynamic.

The friction between them mounted steadily, culminating in a fatal clash. Nobilus, whose tolerance for Bucky's shortcomings had run its course, acted decisively in the face of Bucky's persisting arrogance. His chillingly pragmatic decision to eliminate Bucky for what he perceived as his detrimental traits revealed the depths of Nobilus's ruthlessness. This incident ultimately left an indelible mark on Nobilus's legacy, a chilling reminder of the lengths he was willing to go to eradicate perceived weakness.

Unsterblich

Sith Apprentice Unsterblich

The relationship between Nobilus and his second apprentice, Unsterblich, was marked by strategic alignment and shared ambitions. Nobilus, still carrying the stern lessons from his previous mentor-apprentice debacle, sought out the Kel Dor warrior specifically for his fierce reputation and relentless fighting spirit. Unsterblich, in turn, was drawn to the power and cunning of Nobilus, recognizing the opportunities that this alliance could present. Together, they fostered a partnership predicated on their goal to dismantle the rising power of a formidable Sith Knight, Blade Ta'var.

Despite the synergy of their partnership, however, their ambitious plans were met with tragedy. In the war's opening battles between the Dark Brotherhood and the Collective, Unsterblich challenged the future High Councillor of Odan-Urr, only to be bested in the intense duel. His unexpected death greatly affected Nobilus, who had wagered much on this promising apprentice. The loss of Unsterblich disrupted Nobilus's strategic plans and served as a stark reminder of the volatile nature of power dynamics within the tumultuous galaxy.

Lvorth'kala'myr

Commander Orthala

Commander Orthala and Nobilus share a layered professional relationship characterized by contrasting styles and grudging respect. Nobilus, despite his brooding silence, has an air of audacious self-reliance about him. He is a creature of instinct and action, often preferring to let his force skills and raw power speak for him rather than indulging in lengthy discourse or strategic planning. His penchant for solitary operations and an occasionally caustic sense of humor tend to set him apart, marking him as a maverick.

On the other hand, Orthala embodies the discipline, order, and military precision of the Taldryan Navy. He is a man of measured words and strategic insight, often acting as a counterbalance to Nobilus's more spontaneous approach. The structured lens through which Orthala views the world often puts him at odds with Nobilus's instinctual methods, leading to an intriguing dynamic between the two.

Despite these differences, a mutual, albeit tacit, respect exists between Nobilus and Orthala. The Commander appreciates the untamed potential and skill in Nobilus, understanding that his power, when appropriately channeled, can be an invaluable asset. Nobilus, though not outwardly expressive, acknowledges Orthala's strategic prowess and steady leadership. This unique interplay of stark contrasts and shared respect forms the bedrock of their relationship, leading to an unlikely yet effective partnership.

Equipment

Attire

The Assassin Armor that Nobilus dons are a superb embodiment of stealth and shadow, designed for untraceable infiltration and lethal neutralization of targets. Crafted meticulously from form-fitting, lightweight fabric or thin plate armor, it contours to the wearer's physique, balancing mobility with subtle protection. Enhanced with an assortment of concealed pockets and belts, the armor serves as a secret arsenal, each hidden compartment potentially housing a silent instrument of death.

The design of the Assassin Armor is an exercise in tactical aesthetics. Bathed in a blended pattern of obsidian black and midnight blue hues, it becomes a functional chameleon in low-light environments. It doesn't just wear the shadows; it becomes one with them, rendering Nobilus nearly invisible in the dim light.

The armor boasts a remarkable sound-dampening body glove, a technological marvel designed for absolute silence. The wearer can traverse even the most treacherous terrains with nary a whisper, moving like a silent specter in the night. Every step is hushed, every motion a silent dance, amplifying the stealth capabilities of the Assassin Armor.

Not all of its defenses are hidden, however. The Assassin Armor's outer layer is constructed from a lightweight, yet robust, armorweave fabric. This woven protection offers an additional safeguard against a variety of attacks, elevating the armor's defensive capabilities beyond those of standard Assassin Armors.

Completing the ensemble, an Armorweave Cloak drapes elegantly over the armor. More than just a garment, the cloak serves dual functions. Its generous hood and ample coverage shield the wearer from harsh elements, while its material—woven from the same resilient armorweave as the armor—dissipates indirect blaster bolts. Simultaneously, the cloak masks the wearer's appearance, veiling the lethal predator lurking beneath. Thus, Nobilus stands shrouded in mystery and danger, a phantom prepared for any confrontation.

Lightsaber

Soulshatter, the distinctively named weapon of Nobilus, boasts several noteworthy modifications that set it apart from the standard lightsaber design. The hilt of this extraordinary weapon is fitted with a slave circuit, a technological marvel that enables it to summon a predestined starship or land vehicle to its location. This impressive feature not only ensures a swift getaway in dire situations but also underscores the cunning tactical mind of its owner.

Constructed from augmented materials, Soulshatter's hilt is more durable and resilient than most. It can endure substantial damage, sustaining its functionality even under severe duress.

A unique addition to Soulshatter is a Christophsis Crystal, a variant of kyber crystal native to the crystalline planet of Christophsis, situated in the vast expanse of the Outer Rim. A lightsaber powered by this rare crystal carries a potent kinetic energy boost. Each strike delivered reverberates with amplified force, resulting in significantly more destructive impacts. It's not just a blade, but a devastating conduit of kinetic energy, a testament to the strategic prowess and unique preferences of its owner, Nobilus.

The blade of Soulshatter, unlike the traditional Jedi blue or Sith red, shines with a pure, gleaming white light. This unconventional color is a deliberate choice by Nobilus. Instead of bleeding the crystal red, as is customary among the Sith to show their dominion over the crystal, he leaves the crystal in its purified state. This striking white blade is a powerful symbol of his derision for the Jedi, a mocking tribute to a fallen adversary he slew, from whom he claimed the crystal.

Motivation Impulse, stimulation, momentum, and provocation.
Personality Ambitious, charismatic, dependable, dynamic, and extroverted.
Nature Loyal, imaginative, creative, adventurous, and mischievous.
Speech Deep. Grumbles frequently.

Renowned for exploiting every advantage and power position he possesses, Nobilus has a knack for leveraging fear, intimidation, and manipulation to compel others into yielding to his will. He employs ostentatious displays of strength, parading his capabilities to pressure opponents into surrendering their stance. As callous as a frostbitten winter night, Nobilus guards his power vehemently, never relinquishing an iota of his control. His tactics, while effective, have garnered him the undesirable reputation of a bully. This perception often shadows potential negotiations, making them challenging before they commence.

Underlying Nobilus's ruthless exterior is an unexpected sense of humor. He views the world through lenses tinted with the darkest hues, reveling in the absurdity of life's grim spectacles. His humor is as dark as a starless night, laden with cynical chuckles drawn from situations that many would deem deplorable or soul-crushing. This unconventional, morbid humor can unsettle the uninitiated, making him seem repugnant or overwhelmingly bleak. Yet, his cynicism can often cut through the veneer of naive optimism, providing an unflinching view of reality.

On average, Nobilus maintains a rather laid-back demeanor, always ready with a sharp barb of sarcasm or a dry quip. However, his entire persona transforms when the whiff of battle reaches his nostrils. His habitual smirk makes way for an expression of stony determination, his witty banter replaced with a focused, solemn silence. In the heat of battle, his proper temperament, grim yet steadfast, comes to the fore.

Fiercely individualistic, Nobilus shies away from the collective dynamism of groups or teams. He finds solace in solitude, setting his own pace and rhythm as he navigates through the chaos of life. His emotional landscape remains hidden behind impenetrable walls, never shared with or understood by others. This Lone Wolf approach, while rendering him efficient and inconspicuous, also isolates him emotionally. His comrades struggle to relate to him, making it challenging for them to decode the enigma of Nobilus. His secluded lifestyle raises questions, sparking intrigue and curiosity about the enigmatic man who maneuvers through life's battles with grim humor and staunch individualism.

Physical Description

Unblemished and free of physical defects, save for minor scarring from numerous combat encounters, the young Zabrak is a testament to resilience and physical prowess. The evidence of his life lived on the razor's edge of danger is visible in the silvery traces etched into his gray skin like battle honors brandished with pride. These scars, however, do not mar his attractiveness but add to the captivating magnetism of his presence.

Over time, Nobilus underwent a transformative process, a biological evolution enhancing his natural stature and muscularity. His height soared to an impressive 2.1 meters, with broad shoulders and dense muscles accentuating his towering figure. His sheer size, coupled with an amplified muscle volume, offers him a dominating presence. The gray complexion of Nobilus, an inherent characteristic of his Zabrak heritage, is the perfect canvas for the black tribal tattoos adorning his body. Like a wild, winding river, the intricate patterns commence at his bald crown, flowing in graceful swirls and slashes across his face, neck, and torso. The designs stand as both a testament to his lineage and a proclamation of his triumphs.

His back remains untattooed, a vast expanse of untouched gray holding the promise of potential artwork. The blank canvas, currently sheathed in obsidian, symbolizes his future—an endless realm of possibilities, victories, and accomplishments yet to be etched onto his skin. Nobilus's visual allure is further emphasized by his striking eyes—piercing yellow irises encased within rims of blood-red, a characteristic commonly seen among his species. These eyes serve as a chilling reminder of the lethal prowess that resides within him. The combination of his stark eyes and tribal tattoos makes Nobilus, like many of his Zabrak brethren, a fascinating specimen.

Combat Style

Nobilus is not merely content with achieving victory; he seems to derive a particular perverse pleasure, perhaps bordering on the sadistic, from psychologically toying with his adversaries. While most combatants may find satisfaction in physically incapacitating or killing their opponents, such simple feats do not satisfy Nobilus's hunger for dominance. He desires more. He yearns to watch his foes spiral into insanity, to witness them reduced to whimpering husks or, even better, transformed into pliant puppets with their free will shattered. This is the modus operandi of Nobilus, the Puppeteer.

Rather than relying on brute strength or physical mutilation, Nobilus employs more insidious methods. He conjures illusions and mind games that gnaw at the sanity of his opponents, meticulously chipping away at their resolve. He takes a perverse delight in orchestrating this mental demolition, obliterating their physical strength and sense of self.

Nobilus's battle strategy leans heavily on attrition. He keeps his opponents at bay with deft agility and expert evasion while he meticulously erodes their stamina. Using the Force as his weapon, he launches assaults not just on their bodies but also on their minds. His techniques are a macabre dance, a deadly ballet where every pirouette is a dodge, every leap a feint, every step calculated to drain his foes further.

Once his adversaries have been sufficiently worn out physically, mentally, and spiritually, Nobilus seizes the opportunity to end the game. He employs a swift, decisive tactic, seeking a clean kill. It's a gamble, a high-risk, all-or-nothing move that hinges on perfect timing and precision. But for Nobilus, the risk is part of the thrill, the final, adrenaline-filled crescendo in his symphony of destruction. His game is not simply about winning; it's about the art of dismantling an opponent, about the spectacle of their downfall.
