- "Aut Viam Inveniam Aut Faciam; I'll either find a way or make one"
- ―Severus L'eonheart
Severus L'eonheart is a Mandalorian Chimera born to Grey Jedi Master Samual L'eonheart and Mandalore Gaia Gev. As part of the L'eonheart bloodline Severus virtually produces the energies of the force, appearing as a large fountain or beacon through Force Sight or feeling like that of a waterfall overflowing a small basin. He left everyone he knew to protect them from himself and to grow strong enough to protect them all as his father had meant for him.
History
Early Life
- "Emotion, yet peace.
Ignorance, yet knowledge.
Passion, yet serenity.
Chaos, yet harmony.
Death, yet the Force."
- ―Samual L'eonheart, citing the Mantra of the Force
Born biologically different than most, Severus and his siblings almost never existed. Sharing their biological make up and as such each having different colored eyes, the triplets were named after the mythological creature sharing the same medical name as them. The golden haired boy was named for the fierce loyalty of the Lion, the graceful girl was named for the Eagle and the darkest of the three was named for the Snake. Lionel, Egret and Severus grew swiftly on their homeworld of Aquilaris; far from the darkness of the galaxy and away from prying eyes that sought their downfall.
The children were trained for their self defense by their mother, the Mandalorian fighting styles and fierocity was quickly picked up on by them although Severus was lacking compared to his siblings as he took after his father in his prowess of the Force. They were also taught the more useful universal and lighter techniques by the Grey Jedi Master, partly out of fear that his children would fall prey to the power of the darkness as his brother had many years before. The children were also trained as their parents were, to rely on anything they could in the galaxy. Piloting, languages and many forms of engineering were learned together or apart to ensure that if they were ever separated they would be able to survive with ease.
As they grew Severus repeatedly requested his father to teach him more of the Force as his siblings found their niches and found the techniques growing more difficult, yet his father always delayed asking him to learn the Mantra and live by it, "You must understand and explore your emotions. They are not to be overcome or denied, but rather understood and dealt with. Remember that your emotions cannot take away your inner peace."
They were words that Severus would live by and learn as he grew, becoming more and more like his father with each passing year. On the eve of his thirteenth birthday Severus sought out his father on his homeworld, discovering that the Grey Jedi Master had fled to protect those he loved. Severus left his home, seeking his mother with the Mandalorians to improve his hand-to-hand skill and becoming a Mandalorian Warrior.
His carefree time was short lived as two years later his siblings disappeared, the sudden action caused him to vanish as well. He started to operate as an Fleet Engineer for various organizations, swiftly rising the ranks and gaining a reputation as a top-notch engineer.
On the eve of his sixteenth birthday he joined the Imperial Navy as a Fleet Officer, quickly becoming known for his swift and agile mind as well as his somewhat absurd and impromptu tactics. He couldn't be tied down to one spot for too long though, after three years of service with the Empire he felt the call of the Force that lay deep within him. Ending his tour of duty, Severus sought out Master Skywalker's New Jedi Order to continue his formal training.
To his surprise, Severus found his father and siblings with the New Jedi Order. After a couple of heated arguments pertaining their sudden disappearance, abandoment of himself and their mother, and the hardships they had all gone through; Severus and his father settled down and agree to train with each other yet again to give Severus the edge he needed.
Adult Years
- "You bastard! You really are a snake, they openly allowed you passage aboard their vessel and you betrayed them!"
- ―Lionel L'eonheart
Training with his father had boosted his confidence and allowed him to become a formidable opponent to other force users, but almost true to form his father disappeared again without notice given to any of his family. Many assumed it was to find what had killed his wife, the mother of the L'eonheart children, but Severus took it hard as it was a loss of both his mother and father. Without a word Severus left the New Jedi Order to seek out his father and to grow and learn in the force as his father had meant to teach him.
Boarding an Imperial Frigate under the pretense that he was going to rejoin the fleet, Severus instated a mutiny and locked the Imperial command staff in the brig as he took the vessel well outside of known space. His brother had felt and heard the event, angered that he would've done such a horrid thing before the vessel left known space and communication channels. Arriving at the Antei system proved more difficult than expected as the warships of the Dark Brotherhood immediately sought to defend their territory against the Imperial vessel, Severus left it for dead as the onslaught continued using an escape pod to send himself to safety.
When one of the attacking Sith vessels picked up his pod, recognizing his force potential, he immediately asked to serve upon the vessels forgetting about his force prowess for the time being.
Over the next couple of years Severus acted as a Fleet Engineer and Officer for various vessels in the Brotherhood fleet, ensuring their upkeep with routine maintenance. Repeatedly members of the fleet would ask him if he was a member of the Brotherhood and if he thought about joining the Shadow Academy, a question he repeatedly ignored or declined until the eve of his twenty-second birthday.
The Brotherhood
Arrival
Once again the call of the Force within him was too much to ignore, and Severus applied to the Shadow Academy. It was a swift motion and Severus quickly found himself as a part of the Clan Naga Sadow and the House Marka Ragnos, he progressed faster than expected becoming an Acolyte of the Brotherhood before being approached by Dark Jedi Knight [[Fremoc "Demonic" Pepoi|Fremoc Pepoi]] and Kano Verda about joining the Night Raptors. He accepted the invitation and started to grow closer to the members of his house before being approached by Dark Jedi Knight Teu Pepoi about becoming her apprentice, another request he swiftly accepted.
Changing of the Guard
It didn't take long for Severus to become noticed by those on the House Summit. During a routine operation with the Night Raptors his commanding officer, Kano Verda, became wounded by their enemies leaving him unable to continue his duties for a period of time. As the Raptors were left without someone to command them Severus took some time to prepare himself for the coming storm. His activity to this time hadn't gone unnoticed as he quickly found himself summoned by his Aedile Fremoc Pepoi to the catacombs of their home in Mucenic. It was there that Severus met with Fremoc and the new House Marka Ragnos Quaestor Robert Sadow and he was given the position of Sith Commander of the Night Raptors. In this time Severus was also told that changes were looming, he had been considered for the position of Black Guard for the Aedile but it had been granted to Dark Jedi Knight Ekeia Iclo instead.
The next couple of weeks were rather trying for Severus; in an attempt to make the Night Raptors more of a military team as the House Summit saw fit, Severus requested the Dlarit Corporation work on new weapons for the team using his mother's old weapon as a base for research and development. Because of the sentimental value of Odin's Thunder to him Severus was rather detached and distracted until it was returned to him and he was able to test the first couple of prototypes. During the prototyping phase Severus was told by Aedile Pepoi that the Night Raptors would be relocating the capital of Markosian City to act as a cover for their elite unit as well as to protect him during his subterfuge. During the move Dlarit completed a production model of the weapons for Severus and started dispatching them to the Night Raptors.
Equipment and Inventory
Weapons
Severus still carries a handful of his old weapons, although it is uncommon for him to carry them on him at all times or even reveal them to his opponents as he takes a force-oriented stance as his father did before him.
- Dlarit NR2S and NR3S: The Night Raptors signature weapons, slugthrowers designed from Odin's Thunder these weapons are granted to all members of the Battleteam to ensure their edge on the competition.
- Old Saber: Severus still carries his old saber from his days as a Jedi Knight, it is rarely seen as it has too many painful memories tied to it.
- Katana: Severus commonly wields a large mandalorian iron Katana that was passed down to him by his mother, the weapon has many scars upon it.
- Westar-34 x2: True to his Mandalorian heritage, Severus has two Westar-34 blaster pistols that he wields on rare occasions where he hides his force prowess.
- Odin's Thunder: A heavily modified Mandalorian slugthrower acquired by his mother and handed down to him. Severus keeps Odin's Thunder under lock and key in the House vault in the catacombs of Mucenic to keep the weapon preserved and to avoid using the weapon in combat. It is a sentimental piece that is rarely removed from the vault.
Armor
Armor is not uncommon for people of the Mandalorian clans, and Severus is no stranger to wearing suits of armor and feels comfortable in them so long as they don't restrict his usage of the force or maneuverability.
- Mandalorian Armor: Worn rarely, Severus' armor is modeled after that of his mothers. A combination of light armor pieces around his joints with heavy plates in vital points.
Positions Held
The following are positions held within by Severus with the Brotherhood.
Trivia
- The L'eonheart bloodline has the unique ability to virtually ooze or bleed the living Force, they become fountains that can be tapped by themselves or those talented enough to draw upon it. This attribute was created fictionally when Samual L'eonheart was part of the epicenter of the creation of a Force Nexus in another story. This attribute is similar to that of Ichigo Kurosaki's trait from Bleach.
- Severus and his siblings were spawned from the idea of a Chimera in Humans, typically ranging from a whole degree of different eventualities. Their names were selected as symbolism for the mythological Chimera. Severus - Snake, Lionel - Lion and Egret - Eagle.
- Was recruited to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood by Robin Hawk during a convention in August 2009, but lost the recruiting documentation.
