Ajunta Pall is a House within Clan Plagueis developed by Tra'an Reith and Alaris Jinn di Plagia after the Horizons Crisis in 36 ABY. Originally created as a Battleteam, Ajunta Pall became one of Plagueis's two Houses following the return to Clanhood.
History
In 36 ABY, Alaris Jinn returned from the Galactic Alliance Senate for the final time. Following the Horizons Crisis, Plagueis apparently ceased to exist. What is in truth is that Plagueis survived and rebuilt itself to strike from the shadows. Its location only known to the Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Justicar, and select members of the Dark Council meant that Plagueis could act decisively and with nearly no chance of any retaliation against them.
To this end, Alaris Jinn brought together a group of Plagueians and developed Battleteam Ajunta Pall. Never one known for subtlety in his quest to stamp out what he sees as corruption, the Obelisk was given the task by Tra’an Reith to act as the warbringer of Plagueis. Alaris, and BT Ajunta Pall by extension, were quickly sent out on missions to capture slaves and pillage supplies for the House as a whole. Whenever direct action was needed, Ajunta Pall would be the immediate go to for the House Summit.
Ajunta Pall stood with the rest of Plagueis as it emerged from the ashes of believed defeat during the assault on the Jusadih System, their former home. Taking part in the sacking of Nfolgai, Ajunta Pall was at the front lines of the engagement both in orbit and on the ground. Using sheer force, Ajunta Pall's forces were able to punch enough holes into any One Sith forces so that the rest of Plagueis' assets were able to capitalize. Claiming victory during the Battle of Nfolgai, Plagueian forces gained control over a squadron of Shadow Droids using the brain of the recently defeated One Sith Dark Jedi Yobd Nan as the units leader.
As Plagueis pursued the One Sith forces led by Xander Drax away from Nfolgai they found themselves easily besieging the frozen Outer Rim planet of Khar Delba. While a majority of Ajunta Pall's forces confronted the bulk of One Sith forces, Alaris and his second-in-command, Teylas Ramar, joined the Plagueian infiltration team sent to capture Drax alive, if possible. The team, while unsuccessful in capturing Drax, was able to deal a major blow to the One Sith forces on Khar Delba and defeat his dangerous and skilled apprentice, Fuuka Ashasti.
Ajunta Pall continued to serve essentially as the cannon fodder and the muscle of Plagueis throughout further campaigns of the year including the planets of Ch'hodos, Athiss, and Ziost. The Plagueian forces were unsuccessful against the One Sith on Kalsunor simply because of their unpreparedness against unconventional bounty hunter tactics that the hired One Sith help displayed against the Plagueian forces.
Throughout the campaign against the One Sith, Plagueis as a whole was able to accumulate additional forces and power so much so that they were elevated back to Clan status within the Dark Brotherhood.

Lore
Jinn chose the first Dark Lord of the Sith through careful thought. Other possibilities for the name included Andeddu, Tenebrous, and Bane. He finally settled on Ajunta Pall after careful study of the Sith Lord’s history. Though Ajunta Pall was inevitably “redeemed” by the traitor Revan, he led the Dark Jedi exiles to Korriban and took the first mantle of Sith Lord. Though hardly the first practitioner of the Dark Side of the Force, the philosophy of the Sith came from his initial teachings and leadership.
The tragedy that is Ajunta Pall should be carefully studied and examined. Alaris decided to not focus on Pall’s apparent “redemption,” but instead to learn from it. That one should never lose one’s focus and sanity in dealing with the Dark Side of the Force, may it be one’s eventual downfall.
Within the hierarchical fiefdom structure of Plagueis, the leader of Ajunta Pall is properly referenced and titled as the Left Wing of Dread. The second in command of Ajunta Pall is referred to as the Blade of the Fallen, or sometimes just "the Blade".
Unit Speciality
Ajunta Pall’s forces are lead by its Dark Jedi members the same way the Sith led the Imperial Military during the Great Galactic War. The Dark Jedi, at the rank of Dark Jedi Knight, are referred to as My Lord by any non-Force Users.
By and large, the Dark Jedi of Ajunta Pall are used predominantly as the “shock-troopers” of the Battleteam and theoretically are used sparingly during combat. In practice, however, given the aggressive nature of most Dark Jedi, specifically those in Ajunta Pall, these Dark Jedi will most often be found on the front lines of any battle.

Ajunta Pall's deadly and forceful nature in combat made the selection of a central operations center an easy decision. Even with the lack of a truly fortified land-based option, the selection of Clan Plagueis' former flagship made sense moving Ajunta Pall forward from a small battleteam to a fully functional house, and therefore requiring more space. Controlling all operations from a star destroyer allows Ajunta Pall to continue from target to target, mission to mission as they wreak havoc across the galaxy without having to return to a fixed, central location as they move on.
Originally a derelict hull, the Ascendancy was fully refitted before becoming the flagship of then-House Plagueis. However as the assets and power of Plagueis grew it eventually blossomed into a Clan. New naval assets, and a new flagship, allowed for the transition of the Ascendancy to Ajunta Pall. By that time the Ascendancy was already fully geared and fit for the mobile command center necessary for Ajunta Pall.
