"Every drop of blood, every bitter tear, every bead of sweat. I LIVE FOR THIS!"

―Darth Jasta

Cop, spook, swooper, enforcer, leg breaker, Dark Jedi, Obelisk, Mafioso, Equite, Shadesworn. All these things describe Etah, but even together are insufficient to define him. He is more than you think, he is less than you want, he is a walking contradiction and he is beyond reason and definition. Etah is the embodiment of excellence and the personification of service. He is the flurrying rage and the foreboding shadow. He is a steward and stalwart of Arcona and he is standing right behind you.

Character History

Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (13 BBY-2 ABY/0-15 yrs old)

"A demon spawn. The child of a bastard son. Seven born of seven and the Seventh child fathered one. A soul black full of pain. Bodies in the field. Blood pourin' like rain"

―Darth Boondox

Etah during his awkward teen years

Born on Mirial in the Outer Rim, Etah's mother died in childbirth and his father was a Confederacy war hero. The father had been the seventh and last son, in a family with no girls. He would go on to have seven sons and like his father before him, no girls. Etah was the last of his sons. Etah's birth family was proud of both their Confederacy roots and their ancestors service to Darth Revan's Sith Empire, Mirial having sided with both in the course of its history.

Though raised without a mother and alienated from his much older siblings, Etah's childhood on Mirial was typical enough. He made average marks in school, was decently successful with the opposite sex and fought in the prize fighting circuit. His father was a retired and spent much of his time with his fellow Clone Wars veterans. Not caring for the company of old men, Etah spent his free time with friends. This led to many exploits involving girls, liqueur and partying, but nothing that got out of hand.

Imperial Sector Ranger (3-4 ABY/16-17 yrs old)

"Dedicated, passionate, courageous and absolutely without fear. Ethical to the point of disloyalty."

―Excerpt from a Etah's yearly performance review circa 4 ABY

File:Etah.jpg

Etah in his dress uniform

As he reached young adulthood, Etah was recruited into the Imperial Sector Ranger's. The Imperial Rangers were a criminal investigations division that predated the Empire. This, along with the fact that he was recruited from the outer rim, made it possible for him to join Imperial service despite his near-human heritage. For his training he was shipped out to the Imperial Training Center on nearby Daluuj.

At the Imperial Training Center, training was conducted in general subjects such as basic individual military tactics and movement and dynamic and deliberate entry, military operations in urban terrain. As well as more specialized topics, such as criminal law, the justice system and criminal investigation. Etah proved extraordinarily adept at most Sector Ranger skill sets.

The Mirialan's general instruction at the Imperial Training Center lasted six months, after which Etah was assigned to the Albanin sector, which included the Daluuj system. During his service in the Albanin sector, Etah was able to obtain advanced instruction in shadowing, infiltration, pursuit and undercover work. This training was obtained in multiple week long seminars, spread throughout his year and a half long assignment in the Albanin sector.

Etah's job as an Imperial Sector Ranger involved routine criminal instigation. He had authority to grant immunity to prosecution, issue subpenas and warrants, and he could search public and private property, seize potential evidence and illegal goods. He had the authority to arrest and he had the authority to “compel statements” from suspects. He also had limited authority to direct other Imperial assets.

In the first year as an Imperial Sector Ranger he personally secured the arrest, prosecution and conviction of dozens of highly wanted criminals. Some of them were high ranking Imperial military officers, influential Imperial bureaucrats, and wealthy Imperial business people. He was successful because he was talented, secure in his authority and unhesitating in his duty. It was for these reasons, as well as his advanced training, that he was chosen to become a Special Enforcement Officer.

Special Enforcement Officer (5-11 ABY/18-24 yrs old)

"Absolutely without fear to what should be the point of recklessness, but it always seems to work out for him"

―Passing comment from a coworker circa 8 ABY

Etah as a Special Enforcement Officer

Around this time, the Empire was crumbling, even in the Outer Rim, and Etah was recruited into the New Republic Security Force, the Agency that was assuming the assets and role of the Imperial Sector Rangers. Etah was transferred to the Security Force Office on Myomar in the Celanon Spur and was appointed as Special Enforcement Officer. He was chosen for his training, his natural ability and so he could be sent undercover in circles that would be hostile to humans.

In the next three years Etah pursued and arrested dozens of high profile and dangerous criminals. pirates, slavers, assassins, Mob enforcers, bounty hunters, Etah tracked them down. He infiltrated their homes, their fortresses, their skyhooks and their ships. He chased them from the Outer-Rim, beyond wild space and as far as the core worlds and the deep core. No matter what it took, he killed or captured them all. Of course, he had the resources of the New Republic to assist him.

On some of the harder pursuits Etah was forced to go undercover, sometimes for months at a time. His last assignment was to expose and dismantle a powerful black market centered around the Celanon Spur. In order to do this, he went in deep cover in an outlaw swoop club called the Damned. The Damned were founded and populated by Mirialan Confederacy Veterans, some of whom were friends of his fathers.

Damned Forever, Forever Damned (12-22 ABY/25-35 yrs old)

"The floodgates of the Damned shall crash and burn once again. Down, Down, Down, Forever Down"

―Darth Wylde

The Damned Swoop Club were against the black market because it overcharged near-humans from the Outer-Rim and ultimately funneled profit to human owned companies in the Corporate Sector. So they let the son of a local war hero prospect with them, knowing his mission and his intentions. At Etah's behest the Damned started buying weapons from the black market and selling spice to this Black Market.

File:EtahAdult6.jpg

Etah going undercover as a swooper

Etah fit in with the Damned comfortably. He found he liked the life and the sense of brotherhood that service to the Empire and the New Republic never really offered him. During the first year he was with the Damned Swoop Club, he was still working as an undercover Special Enforcement Officer. But during that year he made no arrests as doing so would compromise his cover. During the wrap up of the Operation, a dozen members of the Damned were arrested by the local New Republic Security Force despite Etah's insistence at their immunity.

With his contract coming to an end, Etah was supposed to be transferred. But instead, he quit or rather, simply failed to sign a new contract which resulted in his separation from service. The Damned accepted the explanation that he had no say in the arrests and he earned his patch by freeing eight of the twelve members of the Club that had been arrested from their prison facilities. He knew ins and outs of the former Sector Ranger facilities, infiltrated them and freed his Club mates.

Now a patch holder with the Damned Swoop Club, Etah acted as an enforcer. His talent, a holdover from his says as a Special Enforcement Officer, was gaining access to people that weren’t suppose to be accessible and either killing them or compelling their support. Compelling their support the same way as he used to compel statements from suspects. He also kept an eye on law enforcement and served in a law enforcement oriented counterintelligence role for the Club. More than once he sniffed out police rats from within the Club or majorly foiled the plans of the local law enforcement.

Etah reasoned that the main difference between being a Swooper and real life, was that to be a Swooper you sometimes had to act with complete disregard for the consequences. This was especially true in matters of respect and honor. But the life generally consisted of doing lines of spice off Twi'lek slave girl's thighs, busting peoples faces open and making jokes with one another. Etah sometimes mused that members of Outlaw Swoop Clubs hugged each other more than most people would guess. The craziness of parties and the laughter of friendship often abruptly gave way to violence or serious business, but never for long.

The d'Tana Crime Family (23 ABY/36 yrs old)

"I drink a lotta whiskey, smokin all the timeI'm gettin fucked up every god damn night. Everybody's doin cocaine and startin up fights and I'm livin fast and hard and dyin hard with my god damn. Loaded fists of fury, doin what I do."

―Darth III

File:EtahAdult5.jpg

Etah not long after aligning with the Tana Consortium

Many years after joining the club, Etah was Sargent-at-Arms for the Myomar Chapter of the Damned, Etah secured a contract with a beautiful and compelling human female. It was not unusual for Swoop Clubs to contract with organized crime rings to act as escorts or errand runners and this organized Crime Ring was the Tana Consortium. The female was Selene d'Tana and she recognized the gift within Etah.

The contract was for the Damned to begin distributing Garconian Spice throughout the Outer Rim. This contract is what brought the Tana Consortium into the big time. Before that the Consortium's spice had exclusively been dealt in Dark Brotherhood and Hutt Space, reaching Nar Shadda at its farthest. Which at the time, relegated them to being a somewhat local phenomenon. All that was to change with their product going galactic.

The contract was originally going to be very small and the Tana Consortium was gonna push its spice into the Outer-Rim through multiple sources. But once Selene sensed force sensitivity within Etah, they pushed all their work through the Damned, making the group moderately wealthy by Outer-Rim standards. The more drugs the Consortium pumped out and the more money the Damned laundered back through, the farther Selene and Psyko began bringing Etah “into the fold,” as it were.

Shadow Clan (24 ABY/37 yrs old)

"Dark side has no rival test your faith in blood. Night hides the hunting packs a feeding frenzy"

―Darth Araya

After a year of working closely with Selene d'Tana and Psyko d'Tana, they brought him in. They told him what they were, what the Dark Jedi Brotherhood was and what he was. They threatened that if he did not join they would have to kill him and cancel his clubs lucrative contract. But such threats were unnecessary. Growing up with gloried notions of the Sith Armies of Darth Revan, Etah very much liked the the concept of becoming a Dark Jedi.

Very soon after joining the clan Arcona and by extension the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, the Swooper was recruited into the Soulfire Strike Team by the then Sergeant Selene d’Tana. There he brushed up on a lot of his infantry skills while making use of the infiltration skills he learned as an SEO, as the groups scout. Koskian 'Psyko' d'Tana Arconae, Proconsul of Arcona at the time, saw great potential in the new Dark Jedi and took him under his wing as an Apprentice.

After a short time as a member of the Soulfire Strike Force, the young Guardian Etah was offered the first of what would be many leadership opportunities. Reluctantly leaving his mentor Selene, the young Dark Jedi took the helm of the Qel-Droma phyle as Tetrarch, a Krath Battle Team in the House Galeres. He would be mildly successful, but enough so that he would later be given the opportunity to serve as Aedile of the House Galeres.

Tomb of Doom and Ascension to Knighthood (25 ABY/38 yrs old)

"I'll be sitting on top when the sky falls down And It All Goes Wrong Again"

―Darth Alexakis

Etah around the time of his knighting

Over the next year Etah commanded his Battle Team. In this role he led some of the most talented people in the Brotherhood including former and future Consul Mejas Doto and future Seneschal Orv Dessrx d'Tana. Toward the end of his tenure as Battle Team Leader, his Master Psyko d'Tana, sent him on a special mission. Etah traveled to Honoghr where his mission was to obtain lightsaber crystals used by Darth Sogr of the Noghri Kagh'jah Clan, who was commandant of the Sith academy of Honoghr during the New Sith Wars New Sith Wars.

Etah obtained the lightsaber crystals but was injured when Sogr’s crypt crashed into itself, which also destroyed his transportation. He was saved and tended too by local Noghri and was eventually accepted into the local Noghri clan. Etah having constructed his first lightsaber, destroyed a beast of unknown and perhaps supernatural origins called the Demurgima. Only after this rather dramatic climax, did Arconan forces sent by Selene d’Tana retrieve him from the rural planet.

Becoming a Made man and Crying in the Dark (26 ABY/39 yrs old)

"Whiskey river take my mind. Don't let her memory torture me. Whiskey river don't run dry, your all I got take care of me."

―Darth Willie

After returning from Honoghr and shortly before officially being promoted to Dark Jedi Knight, the d'Tana family indicated that he, along with a Nagai named Rho, were being accepted into the family. Both having already been affiliated with the Consortium, joining the d'Tana family was an elevation to the status of Made men, Mafioso's whose safety and status were protected by the Consortium. Rho and Etah were the first members to be accepted into the family that were under the Dark Jedi rank of Dark Jedi Knight, both of them standing at Jedi Hunter.

But the joy of becoming a part of the d'Tana family would not last for long. The pretty young woman who was the first person to recognize the dormant gift within Etah, died under mysterious circumstances after being alienated from the Clan Arcona. Then, one by one the members of the d'Tana family left the Clan. Etah knowing no other home but Arcona, he choose to remain among the shadow clan, while maintaining his loyalty to the d'Tana Crime Family.

For the next year Etah was in charge of the legitimate front-business Dahl Plating, which produced bulkheads and hulls for space ships. The company was created by Gavin Dahl, as a front to assemble Coronada Station. As one of the few remaining Arconan d'Tana's. Etah was in charge in the mining, refinement and production of Garconan Spice. Dahl plating was successfully used as a cover for Garconan Spice's distribution.

Dark Times (27 ABY/40 yrs old)

"That's what my conscience said. Then it bunny hopped off my shoulder, now my conscience dead. Now the only guidance that I had is splattered on cement"

―Darth Creator

Following the Rite of Supremacy “Second Darkness,” Etah was asked to step up as Aedile of the House Galeres. His active though uninspired leadership, helped see the House Galeres through a difficult leadership transition. The Mirialan gave no objections about the choice of Sashar as Quaestor to Consul Timeros, but Sashar it seemed had reservations about him. During a short period of absence, due to obligations to the Arconan Intelligence Service, Zandro Erinos was chosen to replace Etah.

The Swooper had no time to grouse however, as the Yuuzhan Vong chose just then to attack Dark Jedi Brotherhood space. Etah, in the Dajorra system, led the few Arconan's that weren't attending the Rite of Supremacy’s awards ceremony, to Last Stand Depot on the glassy planet of Sukhur. The reconstructed Arconan fleet picked up the Clan from this location before going into an exile that would last several years. During this period of time Etah had little contact with the d'Tana family and even ceased using the name for a short while.

Etah contemplating amidst the darkness

For his leadership in the 8th Great Jedi War, Etah was recognized by the Dark Council and the Clan Arcona when by being elevated to the rank of Obelisk Templar. It was during this time that he was inducted into the nascent Shadesworn cult and began an extended Apprenticeship to Timeros Caesus Entar. But those details would not become public for quite some time.

Following the 8th Great Jedi War, Mejas Doto re-ascended to the throne of the Clan Arcona. This led to his Project Resurrection. Project Resurrection was the resurrection of the House Qel-Droma from the ashes of the House Oriens Obscurum and it entailed a program in which all existing members of the Clan leadership were fired and the entire Clan competed for the positions.

Etah felt he had rightfully earned the Questor-ship of the House Qel-Droma. But in an act of what Etah felt was cronyism, Xander Drax was placed as Questor instead and proved to be a largely absent leader. That was immediatly followed by a very public spat between Etah and the then Proconsul, Sashar Erinos. Those events, caused a rift between Etah and much of the rest of Arcona that would not be reconciled for years.

Coming In From the Cold (29 ABY/42 yrs old)

"I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired. I know right now you don't care. But soon enough you're gonna think of me. And how I used to be...me"

―Darth Matchbox

Though the rift between Etah and Sashar was very real, it was also for show. It put the former Special Enforcement Officer on the fringes of the Clan and allowed him to function as a counterintelligence operative for the Clan's nascent Intelligence branch, which was being officially unofficially led by Timeros Entar even then. As an outsider the Mirialan was able to sniff out dissenters and gain the trust of traitors. In this way he protected his Clan. His last mark was the Arconan Proconsul at the time, Vorion, though Etah later lamented the fall of the man who almost became his friend.

Approaching Arcona's greatest victory, Etah brought Vorion's dissident activity and planned treachery to light, which resulted in Vorion resigning along with the Questors of both houses for various reasons. Trusting did not come to Timeros easily, so when the Entar was forced into the Questorship of the House Galeres, he decided to call in his Apprentice and friend, Etah, to act as his Aedile. Etah was back in good standing with the Clan, officially and unofficially.

The Dawn of Supremacy (30 ABY/43 yrs old)

"The twilight of Clan Taldryan’s domination has passed into the dawn of Arconan supremacy"

―Etah in a communiqué to the House Galeres, circa 31 ABY

File:EtahBiker3.jpg

Etah posing in the middle of combat

The Dark Jedi Brotherhood had bided its time, and rebuilt it's fleet. It decided the propper time to return to Antei and to take it back from the Yuuzhan Vong by force. But it soon found that the Yuuzhan had been destroyed by some sort of sickness. In it's place however, was a crackpot Jedi Master named Omancor Crask, leading a band of anacronistic Jedi's that had somehow obtained an army of automatons.

The Dark Brotherhood, led by the Clan Arcona, invaded Antei and destroyed the Jedi and thier metal golems. Grand Master Aristan Dantes killed Omancor Crask in one on one combat and the Jedi were slaughtered en mass. Antei and then the Clan holdings were retaken three years from the date that the Yuuzhan Vong had originally invaded. Though parts of Dajorra were ravaged, the Clan Arcona had no problems reocupying the system. Upon returning to Dajorra, the Garconan spice viens were found to be dried up. The future of the d'Tana family would have to lie outside of Dajorra.

During the war and for a short time after, Etah adopted the Krath Order. This period was the height of Etah's apprentichip to Timeros and he wanted to follow in his mentors footsteps more closely. Following the war and Arcona's great victory, Etah was elivated to Krath Archpriest. Not long after the Great Jedi War Etah succeeded Timeros as Questor of House Galeres and not long after that, the Equite returned his loyalties to the Obelisk Order.

Etah's tenure as Questor of the House Galeres started strong but during a month and a half long absence due to obligations to the d'Tana Family, the House became restless. Seeing great potential in his Aedile, Zakath, and wanting to concentrate on his work with Arconan Intelligence, Etah stepped down upon his return and was accepted into a support role to the Consul Sashar Erinos and Proconsul at the time, Braecen Kaeth.

Watcher of Arcona (32-34 ABY/45-47 years old)

"On a Sunday morning sidewalk, I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned. 'Cause there's something in a Sunday That makes a body feel alone. And there's nothing short a' dying that's half as lonesome as the sound of the sleeping city sidewalk and Sunday morning coming down"

―Darth Cash

Following his time as Questor of Galeres, Etah turned his attention to the d'Tana family. The Tana Consortium was dormant, Coronada Station which had served as the Consortium’s headquarters was destroyed, the family had scattered and the Garconian spice veins dried up during Vongforming of the planet. Not having authority to make decisions for the family and not having contact with any of the old Baron's of the family, the Mirialan called his old allies to him.

The ranks of the Damned Swoop Club had been bolstered by Mirialan military veterans of both the Empire and the Rebel Alliance, but were too jammed up by the New Republic in the Outer Rim to enjoy profit or even peace. So they followed their brother to Kessel, located not far from Dajorra. Etah rechristened the group of ruffians, the Thrice Damned, reasoning that they had been damned by war, damned by the New Republic and with their new allegiances, damned by the Jedi.

Using the Damned's remaining capital and the contacts and retainers of the Tana Consortium to build a small empire on Kessel, First Etah found a network of spice rich caves that had been planned to be mined, but never were. Then a fortress was built recessed into the rock. Etah dubbed it Coronada Fortress, after the station and Arcona's former home system. Then the Thrice Damned offered the space as the new headquarters of the d'Tana Crime Family and the newly created Tana Incorporated.

Though occupied elsewhere, Etah never felt he had left with Arcona or grown out of touch. He had taken to calling himself the Watcher of Arcona, since he monitored the clan closely from Coronada Fortress. 32 ABY found Etah joining the Arcona Expeditionary Force leading military forces in an assault on Salas V and its scary Killik inhabitants. In 33 ABY Etah joined the Obelisk Order in attacking the remnants of Omancor Crask's droid army and then defending the Temple Boyna from Sith Incursion.

Etah celebrating Arcona's victory

A Legacy of Excellence (35 ABY/48 yrs old)

"After we won the last Great Jedi War I announced to the House Galeres, that we had witnessed the Twilight of Taldryan Dominance and the Dawn of Arconan Supremacy. Moving forward, we have reasserted Arconan Supremacy and in doing so, we've established a Legacy of Excellence"

―Etah in a communique to the Clan Arcona, circa 35 ABY

With Tana Incorporated back up and running and the families finances back in the black, Etah returned to Dajorra. He was received by the Clan leadership with cautious but open arms. They seemed to think that it was likely that he would return to the d'Tana holdings on Kessel. But the Prelate had no time to prove his dedication, a call to invade New Tython came from the Dark Council.

Etah was involved in per-planning the operation. Arcona hit the surface of New Tython with no complication and Etah was sent out in a small but elite team to flank the Jedi and their Mandalorian Mercenaries. The small team breached and cleared Menat Ombo, which kept the Jedi from being reenforced and led to the enemy line folding and being ripped to shreds. For his actions, he was awarded by the Clan Summit.

Appearance

File:EtahLeathersBack.jpg

The backview of Etah's riding leathers

File:EtahLeathersFront.jpg

The front view of Etah's riding leathers

Etah stands at just over six foot tall. Though his shoulders appears broad and his chest seems wide, he has a much more athletic figure than you would first imagine, a trait of his rather lithe species. He has repeating geometric patterns down both cheeks, also a trait of his culture. Each small diamond inscribed on his face marks a kill. His mustache, beard and long hair, along with his demeanor and manner of dress, give the impression that he is something of a brute, this is an intentional misdirection.

Leathers

Etah generally wears his swoop riding leathers for all but formal occasions. The outfit includes leather boots, leather chaps, a leather vest, a leather jacket, jeans and a tee-shirt. He likes the look and feel of the leathers and he enjoys the outfits connection to swoop culture and its inherent violence, which can have the side affect of intimidation. The leathers are also functional, keeping the hot swoop from burning his skin and keeping his skin intact should he crash his swoop and skid along the cement.

Robes

Like most of Arcona's Equites Etah generally wears the formal robes of the Shadesworn Cult. But even then he generally wears them over his riding leathers.

Armor

When Etah is training or on a mission with the Soulfire Strike Team. he wears the Dar'Verd Combat Environment Suit that they all do.

Psychological Profile

There are two Etah's: one is the professional operator that he has to be and the other is the loud, obnoxious, cocky, but lovable SOB that he really is. His overly confident swagger sometimes makes for a rocky first impression, but his sheer competence generally assures a great second impression. Etah is nice to those he doesn't know, unless he takes a disliking to them. He is very nice to those he considers enemies and ironically enough, jokingly mean to those he considers friends. Threats are below him, he would rather meet others threats with action. Etah doesn't possess a traditional sense of morals but instead lives by his own creed. His personal creed favors his comrades and is a little looser on practices that many people would consider wrong like theft, murder and other things that somehow benefit him in survival, attaining a mission objective or profit. When a given situation has to do with survival, Etah is primordially instinctual. If a given situation has to do with attaining a mission objective, he is focused like a laser but if it has to do with profit, he is his own gregarious self.

Combat

The Force

Aggressive Negotiations

When fighting a force sensitive opponent Etah likes to use Suppression to lower their force defense and then throughout the fight, he weaves in Drain Will and Dark Side Snare to destroy their will and means to fight respectively. These three force abilities on any one person, drastically reduce their ability to fight at Etah's level.

Force Wraiths

Like most Arconan's, Force Wraith's are his signature force ability. The causal observer notes, his largest wraith is a flying dragon followed by a large wolf of some type and the trio is rounded out by some sort of rabid hunting dog. Even when not actively using them, Etah likes to arrange the Force Wraiths, behind and to the side of any person or group he is fighting. It keeps them off guard and makes them feel vulnerable.

File:SBehemoth.jpg

The Behemoth

Behemoth

Standing at one and one quarter meters tall and nearly three meters long, the Behemoth is a very large shadowy canine creature. It is very powerful and agile and it moves very quickly. Its powerful jaws contain razor sharp teeth and its paws are framed by disproportionately large claws. If acting without command from Etah, Behemoth is very protective of Etah and the other Force Wraiths.

File:SLeviathan.jpg

The Leviathan

Leviathan

Five meters long, including its tail, this force wraith can sit three meters tall when on its hind legs. Like any good demon dragon it has horns, a mouthful of jagged teeth, very large and sharp claws on its front and back feet. The Leviathan is Etah's throne and he rides upon the dragons back as it takes flight and often closes with his opponent, with a quick leap from it's back. If acting without command from Etah, Leviathan aggressively attacks his opponents.

File:SStava.jpg

The Stava

Stava

When not in combat Stava generally sits near Etah and he's probably Etah's favorite force Wraith. He tends to treat Stava like a pet dog. Looking very much like a large and demonic version of a stava, this force wraith is one meter long and a half meter tall. If in combat and acting without command from Etah, Stava chooses either Behemoth or Leviathan to assist and then attacks Etah's enemies recklessly and aggressively.

Tenebrae

Choosing a strategic choke point point that his opponent will without a doubt move around, near, past or by, Etah stands unseen using any combination of Cloak, Twilight and Blackness. He waits until they are either within striking distance to attack, or using Burst of Speed or Equite Speed, are within a few large steps. The ambush is sudden, swift, aggressive and powerful. The idea is the defeat them quickly.

Mindtweak

Using the Obelisk ability Alter Image, Etah assumes the visage of the person he is fighting and using his mastery of the Tu'rek fighting style, he perfectly mirrors the person and adapts movement and technique similar to them. This tactic is guaranteed to make a person at least uneasy and has the potential to throw them off their game quite a bit.

Stutter Steps/Stabs/Thrusts

Etah likes to move into a lightsaber stab, chop or wrap and pause momentarily, drastically increasing the speed of the shot once he resumes movement. He can do so using just his high levels of agility or he can augment his agility with Enhance Ability or his speed with Burst of Speed or Equite Speed. This works well, with his mastery of the stava fighting style and has the benefit of sometimes fooling Precognition or Dodge.

Hand-to-Hand Combat

Stava

Etah began learning the Stava fighting style from Sashar and then later spent time on Honoghr learning to master Stava from the Noghri themselves. Stava's reliance on attack as a defense and its quick and well placed strikes have worked their way into every facet of his fighting, from hand to hand to lightsaber fighting.

Tu'rek

Etah uses Tu'rek as a training method to study his opponents style of fighting and ascertain weaknesses. The swooper also uses Tu'rek in the Mindtweak fighting technique.

Lightsaber Combat

Etah blends the defensive benefits of Shien with the dueling supremacy of Soresu. Etah's overall style is offensive without leaving himself exposed which boils down to a system of aggressive perry and ripost.

Primary Lightsaber Form: Makashi

Since Etah prefers to fight a lightsaber wielding opponent using a lightsaber, he learned Makashi to specifically dominate in lightsaber fights. He trained in Makashi with his first master, Koskian 'Psyko' d'Tana and achieved mastery under his instruction.

Secondary Lightsaber Form: Soresu

Etah began learning Soresu from Selene d'Tana who though his first mentor in the Dark Brotherhood and his first battle team leader, was not officially his mentor. Her exit from the Clan Arcona is one of the reasons he has yet to master this form.
