Kane Vader

The founder and first ruling Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi.

Character Information

Kane is an imposing and foreboding figure. Tall and slender, his form betrays a man of excellent physique in his youth, but whose musculature has decayed through protracted and exhausting contact with the Dark Side. Always immaculately dressed in intricate bejewelled attire, he favours high collars and flowing capes, revelling in the pomp and ceremony of the Brotherhood and once, of the Imperial Court. An unrivalled master of the Force, Kane uses the Dark Side to bolster his physical appearance and stave off the visible signs of his advanced age: A man now in his early sixties, he appears to be a healthy Human male in his mid-forties. Nonetheless, wrinkles have begun to form on his conventionally handsome face, with a high forehead and defined ridge, his eyes are slightly wider than average and exude Darkness as if from his very soul.

An outwardly intelligent, calculating and noble Master, none could doubt that he is thoroughly insane. At moments he can converse in great depth about the intricacies of the Dark Side, yet an instant later and with no apparent cause, would be moved by the corruption of his mind to a rage of destruction. The decades following the path of the Dark Side in secret, always conscious of the danger posed if he or the Brotherhood were revealed bred in him a starkly reclusive and private nature. Not inherently suspicious, Kane is simply convinced that none but he has the foresight or knowledge to comprehend his actions or emotions.

A blessing and a curse, he requires a constant connection with the Dark Side to sustain him, provoking in him uncontrollable bouts of madness and delirium with wholly unpredictable results, and he harbors a paranoid fear of the consequences to his existence if his connection to the Dark Side were to lessen.
