House Archanis

House History

Archanis started as a group of rogue programmers who carried technological integration beyond the moral means dictated by the Old Republic. Fearing for their lives, they took their research and several of their heavily modified ships and fled, narrowly escaping imprisonment for their work. The group came upon the planet of Dar'Telis I, and decided to make it their new home. Soon after setting up their settlement the group made a most discouraging discovery; the entire planet was covered with ferocious carnivores. The group began to load up their ships to leave only to find that something in the planets atmosphere had eaten away at the Hyperdrive's of their ships, making it impossible for them to flee.

Taking this unfortunate series of circumstances in stride, the group used their technology and innovation to defend their fledgling community. They were shocked with the ease with which they repulsed the creatures, and soon discovered that a strange outside force was assisting them. The group settled into their colony, and several generations passed. The strange force that the original colonists had discovered had been cultivated over time, to the point where the youngest generation could visually enhance their cognitive abilities, allowing them to run faster, see farther, jump higher, and generally enhance their survival skills.

While on a routine patrol, a pilot from the Dark Brotherhood accidentally exited hyperspace in the Dar'Telis system. The pilot was hurriedly attending to his malfunctioning hyperdrive when he felt strange force impulses coming from the planet's surface. He made a log of it and then returned to his patrol, not thinking anything would ever come to it. The Sith High Warrior at the time had his suspicions however, and sent a Modified Dreadnaught to check out the planet. Upon their arrival they discovered the colony, and after a tense initial contact in which fifteen colonists were killed and one Dark Jedi Knight injured, the colonists agreed to join the Brotherhood.

Upon their arrival in Brotherhood space the colonists were examined by the Sith High Warrior who had brought them out of their exile. Interested in their heightened survival instincts and abilities, he gave several of them rudimentary starfighter training and sent them out in a training melee with other Brotherhood pilots. The former colonists quickly mastered the TIEs they were given, showing a natural aptitude for space combat. The High Warrior immediately ordered the rest of the colonists to undergo similar training along with their normal apprentice studies, and they soon formed an elite cadre of Sith pilots. When Clan Taldryan was being formed, soon-to-be Consul Jarla negotiated with the new Sith warriors and arranged for them to join House Ektrosis as the future Clan's Sith house. When they were asked what their House's name would be, the former colonists responded Archanis, which was the name the original outcasts had given for the planet upon which they had been unwittingly exiled. Thus House Ektrosis was joined by House Archanis and Clan Taldryan was nearly complete, the third and final piece would be an Obelisk house the rest of the Brotherhood would grow to fear, Dinaari.

Closed and Reopened

On December 18th, 2003, House Archanis was closed due to a lack of active membership. The Exodus had taken its toll on the membership of the Dark Brotherhood, and especially the Sith Order; House Archanis had no more then five active members when it was closed. The members were transfered to House Dinaari, the formerly Obelisk house in Clan Taldryan and the first house to become Multi-Order since the idea of Single-Order houses had become a reality.

After the 6th Great Jedi War, talk began among Clan Taldryan's Summit to reopen the long-closed house. The push was spearheaded by House Ektrosis Qusestor Chaosrain Taldrya and Aedile Taku "Crix" Matsuki Taldrya. They quickly gained the support of the rest of the summit and once the logistical details were sorted out, House Archanis became the first formerly closed house to reopen. When the house reopened, Taku "Crix" Matsuki Taldrya was appointed to his fourth stint as Quaestor, Baron Zarco was appointed as the Aedile and Ricco Vao was appointed as the Rollmaster/Envoy.
