Aticus Jade is a Sith Battlemaster of Independent House Revan and Last King of the Orianic Tribe

"Several flock to the thought of walking the paths of a Sith, and very few survive the first few steps. Those that have walked its path for a distance knows that they have died a long time ago, but in the end these are not true Sith but minions of our will. A true Sith does not walk the path of the Sith, they create one of their own." ~ Aticus Jade

Character History

The Youth Aticus Jade

Aticus Jade was born 2 ABY on the planet Aeotheran and was for the beginning of his life was raised by his mother, Ania Orian. Unlike his half brothers who were raised in an Imperial manner, Aticus was raised as a member of the Orianic Tribe, and did not meet his father until much later in his life. Being a mixed blood made Aticus's life very difficult because the tribe took pride in being the descendants of a Sith Lord named Urias Orian, who in their religion was a god.

It is believed that the Orianic tribe could possibly be the descendants of Urias as the entire Orianic Tribe was built up of force sensitives, and even some mildly trained force users. Despite being a 'half blood', Aticus was considered the most talented and gifted of any of the Orianic Tribe to ever live. By the age of six Aticus had slayed his first Cannok, by eight his first man. It was very clear that a strong warrior bloodline flowed in the veins of Aticus, but with the boy being so strong and talented, conflict with the tribes religion took place. No none Orian bloodline, or half blood should hold as much power as he did, which resulted in the king having several assassination attempts placed upon the boy, each one a failure which resulted in the massacre of the assassins and further anarchy to the Orianic religion.

Aticus by the age of ten was no longer a boy at heart, but a hardened warrior with the blood of twenty two men on his hands. Though the tribe refused to accept him into history as even one of its basic warriors, the king himself did agree that without Aticus to assist them during the Great War between the Orianic Tribe and Sessian Tribe, the Orianic would have never conquered the Sessian. When Aticus was rejected from being accepted as an Orianic by its king and his followers, even after his heroic display in the Great War between the two tribes, his mother began to raise Aticus for a new meaning. Before she did all she could to just make Aticus a common member of the Orianic, but she now realized that with the current leadership and religion in place her son would never be noted for any of his accomplishments, and would further more always be at risk. Ania Orian began to teach Aticus Sith Magic & Alchemy, as well as true Sith Religion, and told him that very soon the Orianic tribe would be his, and that he would bring forward a new age for the tribe. Ania filled her son's heart with rage, anger, and hate but filled his mind with intelligence, strategy, and technique. She did this for three years, and on his thirteenth birthday Aticus was finally of age to issue a Rite of Challenge to the king of the tribe.

The Rite of Challange

It is law by the Orianic religion that when 'any' man of Orianic bloodline, whether pure or not, reaches the age of thirteen they are considered full grown, and are capable of undertaking any task, job or position in the tribe just as any other man, however the Rite of Challenge may only be issued once in an Orianic's lifetime and it results in either the contender surrendering to the challenge, and taking exile - or a battle to the death. The very morning of his thirteenth birthday Aticus approached the king and issued his Rite of Challenge for the crown. With his choices before him, and his natural hate for Aticus, the king chose to duel Aticus for the crown.

Being the contender, the king was given the choice of weapons to use and he chose wisely by saying "Our Surroundings.." which allowed anything and everything to be used as a weapon in the fight. The battle raged from that morning until nearly sunset. The two had battled each other from the village, all the way to the nearby ancient Sith temple. Aticus proved to be to much of a match for the king, as he defeated him using the Sith Magic taught to him by his mother, Ania Orian. Aticus had placed a Spell of Toxicity upon the king, which slowly turned his blood to poison, resulting in his death. Aticus removed the crown from the former king and returned back to the village. Unable to believe that their prior king was dead, and even harder to believe that a half blood was now king, several rebelled against Aticus. The new king wasted no time in destroying the uprising, and used it to strike fear into the hearts of those that would question his authority as king.

Over time the tribe came to love Aticus as their new king. The old religion was abolished and replaced with what teachings of the Sith and Jedi could be recovered from the planet, which not only made more opportunity for the tribe, but also made them stronger. The Orianic Tribe had grown to nearly four hundred followers in the two years that Aticus was king, but this was mostly due to his demand that the tribe breed to replace the warriors that he had killed, then breed to double the numbers, so many of the Orianic were but infants or toddlers while Aticus was king. Little did the tribe know, Aticus was beginning to hate them all. He had not forgotten the shun they had placed upon him, nor would he ever forgive them..

The Brotherhood Arrives on Aeotheran

Approximately three months after Aticus's fifteenth birthday, word came to Destavol that the former god of the Orianic, Urias Orian, had been reincarnated and was on Aeotheran with several other demigods to assist him. Curious about this Aticus made a point to assemble a small team in where he ventured out to find this 'reincarnation'. Aticus was gone for six days and when he returned he found his people worshiping a man by the name of Trevarus Caerick who would later become known as Shan-Long. Wise as he was strong, Aticus did not react harshly to this as he was curious as to just 'what' made this man a god. During a private dinner between Trevarus Caerick and Aticus, the Dark Jedi attempted to trick Aticus into thinking that he was really the reincarnation of Urias Orian by demonstrating his abilities with the force. Though much stronger than Aticus was at the time, Trevarus did not fool Aticus. The young king demonstrated talents with the force himself, and it became clear to Trevarus that not only were some of the Orianic Tribe force sensative, but also some educated in the arts of the Sith. Aticus held no grudge against Trevarus for his attempt however, because he himself ruled over the Orianic with the force so it was only natural that he would desire to do the same.

Joining the Brotherhood

Aticus never believed that Urias Orian was a god, as he himself had studied some of the Sith arts that his mother had taught him, thus he knew for sure that Treverous was no deity either, but he allowed the belief to continue so that he could watch the new comers closer than he could if he were to war with them. As he expected the Dark Jedi had no intentions to lead the Orianic to glory but rather enslave and destroy them over time, but in his heart Aticus desired this, so he met with the Dark Brotherhood personally to make a trade. In turn to accept him into the Brotherhood for training to become a Dark Jedi, he would give the Brotherhood the Orianic tribe and all its lands. At first he was laughed at, but when Aticus returned the next day with the tongues of those who laughed at him and presented them to the Grand Master, Chi-Long, himself. He was seen as a worthy candidate to join the ranks of the Brotherhood.

Upon turning sixteen Aticus was in his first year of training in the Dark Brotherhood. He was expected to die within a week, but he had made many of the elders look like fools, and had proven to be a very intelligent and strong warrior. Over the one year he had mastered speaking Galactic Basic along with several other languages, as well as obtained the rank of Guardian in the Brotherhood. During his first year of service to the Brotherhood, Aticus had served with several clans. Clan Arcona, Clan Taldryan, and Clan Exar Kun but after his service with nearly all the clans he finally found one he could swear loyalty to, Clan Naga Sadow.

Upon turning seventeen Aticus was showing more potential than most Dark Jedi that had been training for six years, even though he was still only a Guardian - he had already killed two Dark Jedi Knight's in combat using their own lightsabers against them. Needless to say this accomplishment placed Aticus in the sights of several powerful Dark Jedi in the Brotherhood, among them was an elite unit called the Grand Master's Royal Guard. Aticus accepted the offer and took great pride in the accomplishments he had made before he had even reached adulthood..

Service in Darkness

Upon reaching 18 Aticus was now a Dark Jedi Knight of Clan Naga Sadow. The Brotherhood had embarked into its Exodus, which Aticus later came to learn was why the Brotherhood had taken interest in Aeotheran to begin with. Battles between the Galactic Empire, and Brotherhood waged in so many places that it was almost impossible not to enter conflict when traveling the outer-rim.

Aticus alone had a confirmed kill count of 136 Imperial and Rogue Jedi combined. Seeing that he was a true asset, Clan Naga Sadow offered Aticus the opportunity to step into the true teaching of the Sith Order. He was tasked with returning to Aeotheran and eliminating the remaining Orianic Tribe, including his mother, which was originally planned by the clan when it first ventured into the Orian System.

Aticus no longer had any love for his past, in fact he hated it so he took the mission as a great honor and glory given to him. Aticus returned to the Consul and Proconsul of his clan with twenty five golden boxes, and one platinum box. All of which contained the heads of the leaders of the Orianic, and the platinum containing the head of his mother. The summit was well pleased with his progression and granted him the rank of Sith Warrior where he continued to serve his clan and order faithfully for quite some time to follow.

After the Exodus, both the Brotherhood and the Empire were greatly weakened - though not by the same means. The Empire had lost in the several thousands of lives by waring against the Dark Jedi, with the Brotherhood losing in the high hundreds. What the Brotherhood had lost most of was resources and technology - now with out the Empire supporting them it was up to them to survive on their own in the galaxy..

Like the rest of the Brotherhood, Aticus managed to survive and grow strong. By 22ABY, when Jac Cotelin was reappointed to the throne - Aticus was a well developed Sith Warrior. He had proven himself very worthy in the battles but his knowledge of the Order was still lacking to much to allow any further elevation. Outraged at not being allowed to progress Aticus vanished from the Brotherhood, and what seemed like the entire Galaxy. He vowed to return when he was stronger, and able to represent his clan and Brotherhood better. His self enforced exile lasted until 26ABY. During his time of self reflection Aticus met his real father, who he attempted to kill but came to find was actually trained equally to the rank of Dark Adept. He studied under his father for a short amount of time before departing to meet his brothers, in which he trained with as well.

A now 25 year old Sith Warrior returned to the Clan only to find out that much had changed. The Jedi were now a rising influence in the galaxy, and there was now a new foe called the Yuzan Vong. Aticus was in no way out of shape, as for the past few years he had been pushing himself harder than any other point in his life and was performing on levels thought impossible for someone of his stature, but Aticus had always been a flaw to the order of ways, and it was only natural that he had done so.

Returning to Clan Naga Sadow, Aticus was soon granted the rank of Sith Battlemaster, and served in both houses as a Sith Commander, Rollmaster and even as Aedile. He accomplished several things, but Aticus had long since left his desires to be 'king' behind, and what he did he did for himself rather than his people. Seeing this within himself, Aticus felt it best that another lead until he regain the urge to lead once again. .

30ABY was an important time for Aticus, as had now grown into a man at 29 years of age. During this time Aticus was also one of the selected members of Naga Sadow to venture back to Antei to reclaim the planet, but when the Sith arrived he like the rest of the Brotherhood came to find that the Vong had all been wiped out by a more natural cause, but in place of the Vong there were now the rogue jedi of Omancor Crask. Aticus was among the several brave warriors to liberate the Brotherhood's home world and restore order to the galaxy. Upon returning back to Clan Naga Sadow, he was rewarded with being granted the title of 'Last King of the Orianic'

Now at 31 ABY Aticus is nearing 30 years of age, and still stands as one of the Brotherhood's finest Sith. He still remains loyal to his clan, Naga Sadow in which he pledged his ever last loyalty to. .
