Clan Arcona is one of six remaining Dark Jedi Clans within the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi. It currently has two constituent Houses: House Qel-Droma and Galeres.
For a summary of the clan, see the Clan Arcona Prospectus.
History
The history of Arcona can best be heard through The Hymn of Arcona as written by Vassan Rokir
From time in memorium, a battle we wage
Between Clans of Swordsmen, Pilot and Sage.
In knowledge and blood our successes gaged.
And victory upon victory, like a fine wine we age.
First there was Nighthawk, our founder on high
He whose vision of glory none could deny:
"A legacy of power!" to the stars he did cry
And born was Arcona, here her history I scry.
Thus, like a child, a noble House were we;
Noble in mind, noble in arm, noble in philosophy.
Whence then came a tumult, within CSP,
Our House doors were opened, host of sanctuary.
Dark Jedi of Palatinae, disillusioned by conflicts internal
Parted thus, but found life as "rogue" to edge on the infernal.
Wise Quaestor Nighthawk, plotting a legacy eternal
Made bastion of our lands, and unto the rogues were we paternal.
New allies made we, of the Palatinae Jedi;
So strong was their bond that they did decide:
"Our allegiance to Scholae be damned and defied;
True brothers have we in Arcona; our faith be undenied!"
And with speed our Father House, noble and strong,
Grew in size and power, making richer a rich history already long.
And soon, with volume and zeal was struck the gong:
"A House we stand, but united a Clan!" came the glorious song.
But among the loyal revelers, a rotting faction brewed:
Rogue Jedi of Scholae Palatinae, in jealousy they stewed.
Presently, a defection back to their origins ensued,
And Clan Scholae Palatinae was to be hollowly renewed.
With tails between legs, the Scholae Jedi fled,
But not all escaped without first being struck dead.
Six conflicts I speak now, sure to be read;
Noble Arcona robbed six Palatinae of their treacherous heads:
Obelisk Blazer and Obelisk Morth cornered a pair.
With a leap and a slash, Morth's saber did flare
And cleft one in twain, as then did Blazer dare
To slice the other's belly, a cut no thicker than a hair.
To their ships ran another two, eager to escape their fate.
Into orbit they flew, but followed by Sith hunger, needing sate.
Shotgun and Shark, in their TIEs with the enemy did their sights mate
And with flicks of trigger, explosive retribution did they create.
And of the last two I speak, were felled by the powers of Krath.
Sensing two that remained, Nighthawk and Voranyen released their wrath.
Using the Force, the kind that comes from the Dark path,
They did crush two throats, leaving six bodies, as says the math.
And so the battle was done, many traitors had paid
Their lives for their "freedom" was their futile trade.
And through conflict's heat the stronger were we made
That the dark flame of Arcona would never fade.
So here the tale of Arcona we begin;
Clan forged in darkness, fire, and the wages of sin.
From House to Clan
Inception
circa March 1998
During this point in time under the first reign of Grand Master Khyron, the Brotherhood had four Clans; Scholae Palatinae, Satal Keto, Aquillas and Tarentum. The Independant House Naga Sadow also vied for dominance within the Aurora galaxy.
A Sith Warrior by name of Donitz sought to forge a new Independant House, and after gathering enough support House Arcona is forged.
Expansion
circa March 1999
Shortly before winning the Orthanc from Satal Keto, Quaestor Nighthawk is granted permission to found our Clan.
Our militant House, Galeres was created to hold the front-line fighters. With legendary battleteams such as the Dark Orb Phyle and Soulfire Brigade, the House spelt out dominance and rulership from their barracks on Garrida. It later became aligned with the Obelisk Order following the benediction of Grand Master Khyron.
House Qel-Droma was created to provide mystical strength to our arsenal, offering guidance and education to all who sought it. From the moon of Mar Sala, the House bided its time, safeguarding Arcona's temple. It was the perfect choice for future alignment with the Krath.
Scholae Palatinae's Loss; Arcona's Gain
circa July 1999
A major tragedy befalls Clan Scholae Palatinae, and the Clan is destroyed. Many of the survivors are offered salvation in Arcona, which for a short time takes in Houses Acclivis Draco and Dorimad Sol. These two Houses are later merged to forge the third permanent House of Arcona: Oriens Obscurum, the rising darkness. Oriens is later chosen to oversee our naval fleet, defending Coronada space from their base on Joharta.

Clan Arcona
di Tenebrous Arconae
The highest honour an Arconan can receive to be named "di Tenebrous Arconae", signifying both their dedication to the Clan and their past efforts in helping shape Arcona. Members who have received this honour are allowed to use "Arconae" in their name. The Arconae derive their powers from the Abyssal Tome, each one a guardian of the secrets contained within. To become Arconae is a long and ardurous process, the final selection chosen by the Consul of Arcona in consultation with the other Arconae.
Bearers of "di Tenebrous Arconae"
- Mejas Doto, di Tenebrous Arconae
- James Lucius Entar Arconae
- Voranyen d’Tana-Arconae
- Denath Ciarus
- Strategos Thanatos Entar Arconae
