Etah

A young and rising star in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.

Character History

Infancy ( 4 ABY / 0 years old )

"I guess darkness was always my path"

Etah’s tale begins not long after the battle of Endor where the Lord Vader fell. It was a dark, stormy night the evening he was left on the doorstep of the newly formed Church of the Sith’ari. The sporadic bolts of lightening shined across the babies’ ebony skin and the mighty thunder heralded his arrival. The monks took the baby in, wondering who left it there, whether it was an accident, a mistake or a perhaps destiny. Notices were set throughout the planet Vjun but no one came forward to claim the young babe.

The men of the Church were mostly older, human, Imperial Veterans. Non-force sensitive’s they were brought together by a common awe of Darth Vader. Drawing from religious practices from around the galaxy, ancients Sith beliefs and prophesies ( mostly those in connection with the Sith’ari ) along with Emperor Palpatines writings and Holocron made by none other than Darth Vader himself they formed a brotherhood. Those with the closest connection to the Imperial Executor formed the core of the Church.

Bishop Ravana, a former Special Agent from the Imperial Security Bureau with a known distaste for humanoids advised Abbot Kol not to burden the Church with the responsibility of raising a child. Bishop Lokk, a former Colonel in the Imperial Storm Corps advised the Abbot that the child’s black skin was reminencent of the Sith’ari’s black armor and further went on to proclaim that his precence at the church was a matter of fate. In the end Abbot Kol, a veteran Tie Ace decided that Etah would stay.

Childhood ( 10 ABY / 6 years old )

"Only the apathetic and the weak fear hardship"

Many people in the galaxy never work an honest days work and many more wallow in total ignorance. Etah can say neither. Etah had a Sister of the Church as a full time nanny, a brother as a fulltime tutor and had regular visits with the Church’s Chief Apothecary. He learned how to count and read at a young age. In addition completed janitorial duties and general labor around the temple. By the time he hit his pre-teen years Etah could read the churches Dogma and recite Sith incantations.

Adolescence ( 17 ABY / 13 years old )

"Blood sweat and tears were the legacy of my young years"

As he grew older Etah began learning the dogma of the brotherhood. His duties around the Church became more physical and demanding, his studies became intense. He was regularly disciplined with a barbed whip, he learned to practiced mortification of the flesh, started practicing dangerous fasting and vigils. As he grew even older he was given a martial instructor and began learning various forms of hand-to-hand combat. He became the legacy of the Church of Sith’ari.

Young Adulthood ( 22 ABY / 18 years old )

"Naivety dies on the battlefield, along with the best of our generation"

At the age of eighteen Etah left the Church of the Sith’ari to find his power, to chase his destiny. He traveled to Saki, the planet of his people. Before then he had never known a Sakiyan, be was a freak among humans. Awhile after reaching Saki Etah decided to join the Saki Army, to become a functioning member of Saki society. Commissioned as an officer due to his level of education Etah learned the areas of Infantry and reconnaissance. Serving in that capacity Etah helped defend his planet from invasion by a sect of rouge Huts. He left only when a Sakiyan elder suggested he would serve the Sakiyan people better by becoming a Dark Jedi.

Dark Brotherhood ( 25 ABY / 21 years old )
