Summary of the character. Rins'zler.
Character History
In the Beginning
The Sith Lord known as Rins'zler didn’t always go by that name; it was during the Old Republic Era that a young Mandalorian was born. Jandos Phyleus Kalinor, son of a well-known Mandalorian Mercenary, Jaga Kalinor. Kalinor had no homeworld to speak of, he was born on-board his families vessel during a quiet period in the hunting season.
The Kalinor family were successful Mercenaries and Bounty Hunters, and their son wanted for nothing growing up. Kalinor had the finest education that any Mandalorian could hope for, and as soon as he was able to hold a blaster, Jaga began to teach him the family trade. By the age of 16 Jandos entered the Mandalorian Training Program to become a fully-fledged Super Commando like his mother and father, the training was long and arduous but Kalinor exceled at it and revelled at the challenges it offered him. It was 3 years later that he graduated from the training program and was granted his own suit of Mandalorian Armour; it was around this joyous time in his life that disaster struck, his parents were employed to hunt a criminal but things went wrong, the contract had been false and the person they were hunting was a Jedi knight, one who had vowed to rid the galaxy of Mandalorian filth. The Jedi slew Jaga and Meree Kalinor in the name of the republic and vanished into the stars, Jandos, or more accurately Shadow Stalker, the name he had taken upon becoming a Super Commando, was distraught, his life began to unravel around him and his path became blurred.
Anger filled the young man, so much anger that he thought it would kill him, he vowed to have revenge on the Jedi who had murdered his parents, but he was amess and in no state to fight a wamp rat let alone a Jedi, it was then that the mysterious man arrived to see him. A man, cloaked in black and darkness came to see him in his Mercenary Chamber one day, this man spoke his name and asked if he could help him, Jandos cried out that he wanted to kill a Jedi, he screamed letting his anger burst out, the metal walls and shelves of his room crumpled and snapped, then it was over, the surge of energy declined and Jandos simply sat on the remains of his bed and cried. The Mysterious man spoke again and introduced himself as Darth Jarod, and offered to take Jandos with him and give him the chance to exact his revenge against this Jedi. The decision was an easy one and Jandos took the offer of Darth Jarod and left his Mandalorian past behind him and moved down a different path, the Path of the Sith.
Walking the New Path
Many years went by, Jandos had a clear strength in the force, and the anger that welled inside him provided him with clear and easy access to the Darkside of the force. He was trained by Darth Jarod in the dark arts of the force, passing many trials and coming close to death on several occasions, each time Darth Jarod reminded him of his parents, and the hate flowed through the young apprentice, keeping him alive. By the age of 26 Jandos Phyleus Kalinor was no more, instead in his place stood a new Sith Lord, Rins'zler, his hatred of the Jedi had opened him up to more dark energy than any of Jarod's previous apprentices, and Rins'zler flew through the training program and impressed even the Dark Council. Rins'zler began to focus his training on the path of the Sith Inquisitor, opening himself up to even more of the Darkside, he visited Koriban, journeying through old temples and seeking the guidance of Sith lords long past. His trials and journeys took him across the galaxy where he slew many foolish Jedi in search for a single man, it wasn’t until he was granted the rank of Darth, replacing his former master upon his death, that he was finally able to track down the Jedi who had murdered his parents, Rins'zler wanted to thank the man, for it was his actions that lead him to this life, but he would thank him in a way so gruesome that even he may have nightmares about it.
Revenge
The Jedi was a man named Arctrus; he had been expelled from the Jedi order for his actions against the Mandalorians, but still went around the galaxy attempting to carry out what he saw was his task. It was on Coruscant that he encountered the dark robed figure, Arctrus walked down the ramp of his ship and felt a warning in the force, standing there, waiting for him was a figured roped in black, its face hidden by a mask, reflective enough that Arctrus could see the fear on his own face, a voice emerged from the robed figure, the words were distorted, as if they were being said through some kind of temporal flux, but what was said put fear into his very soul. Rins'zler unleashed all of his anger and tore Arctrus from his feet, their suspended in mid-air he sent force lightning coursing through his body, he made sure that Jedi remained conscious through all of this, then utilizing a dark art, Rins'zler began to tear the Jedi's Life force away from his body, Arctrus could feel his force energy, his essence being dragged away from his body and there was nothing he could do about it. Rins'zler waited until the moment when Arctrus was split between the force and his physical form and sent his lightsaber slashing through the air, cutting Arctrus in two, forever preventing him ever becoming one with the force. Revenge had been hand, now Rins'zler set his sights on other Jedi fools.
The New Form, A Great Change
15 years had passed since the Emperor had been killed and the Deathstar destroyed, the galaxy was undergoing a great many changes, Emerging into this situation awoke the ancient Sith, Darth Rins'zler, he had jumped though time by utilising a combination of Sith Magic's, and Stasis Technology, he had awoken due to a strange calling in the Dark Side of the Force. Centuries had passed and Rins'zler had awoken previously to see the Emperors reign come crashing down, not wishing to be part of this he once again retired to his stasis system. Some may wonder where he was able to hid for all this time, Lord Rins'zler was not always a Sith, he was Born a Mandalorian, and was trained as a Super Commando, therefore he did not lack skills in utilising his environment to his benefit, he was aided in this by his eternal partner Jen'ika, who, while Rins'zler remained in stasis, looked after his place of refuge, the Marauder Class Corvette 'The Hand of Vengeance'.
Jen'ika was a unique individual, born a Sith Pureblood, she trained for years in the Dark arts of the Force, herself becoming a Sith Lord, she met Rins'zler and the two fell in love and together blazed a trail of Glory across the stars, the two Sith were married within two years, having several children, two of whom went onto become Sith warriors, the third joined the Mandalorians. The Darkside seemed to revolve around Rins'zler and his family, Passion after all was one of the greatest facets of the Darkside of the Force, however their lives were to come tumbling down during a battle with the misguided forces of the Republic, their three children were slain by the Jedi sending both Rins'zler and Jen'ika into a furious rage, they slaughtered hundreds of the Republics troopers and Jedi, stopping only when their forces were reluctantly made to retreat from the world under the cover of Harrower cruisers. Rins'zler and Jen'ika were distraught by the loss of their children, and began researching into ways of bringing the dead back through the Darkside.
The research finally struck gold upon the discovery of an ancient Sith Artefact that had the ability to bind the Soul of one who was strong in the Darkside into a Force Based Circuitry Device, The Sith Emperor himself granted Rins'zler permission and support in finding this artefact, the vast resources of the Sith Empire were put into motion to find this Artefact, and within weeks it was located, it seemed that within their grasp would be a way to bring their children back, alas it was not to be, the Republic had got wind of the search for the Artefact and the Jedi had been despatched to destroy this item of blasphemy. The world was known as Orrund, in the future it would be a desolate world, stripped of life, but during this time the world thrived, yet hidden among its verdant landscape laid a Dark Foreboding Temple. Planet fall was met by multiple republic fighter squadrons, The Empires Elite wings of pilots began to duel with the Republic, buying time for the Sith to make it to the temple. Rins'zler landed the craft outside the temple and immediately he and his fellow Sith sensed that the Jedi had beaten them to their prize, and there, walking proudly from the temple came a score of 20 Jedi, with them they carried the Artefact, it was clear they were getting ready to destroy it, and without a word, the Sith ignited their blades and charged, the battle was brutal, the Sith were outnumbered 2/1 but they fought like possessed men and women, however it seemed that this battle would not be won, fearing this, Jen'ika entered the fray with murder in her hearts, she cut down 3 of the Jedi, but was caught by the lightsaber of a fourth, little did they know that this was to be their undoing. Rins'zler felt Jen'ika's scream in the force, and could sense her energy dwindling away, he could not bear to have the death of the last of his family on his hands and he opened himself fully to the Darkside of the force, the skies darkened and black lightning began to fork from the sky, a whirlwind of Anger, Fury and Malevolence began to swirl around the combatants, standing in the middle, arms stretched to the sky stood Rins'zler, energy visibly flowed into him, the Force Storm began to engulf the planet stripping the world of its very life force and channelling it into the Dark storm of energy, the remaining Jedi looked terrified, they decided to attack the Sith lord, but their attempts were short lived, with the storm still devouring the living essence of the world, Rins'zler lowered his arms and once again took up his lightsaber, behind his mask glowed a dark sinister power. Bolts of light flew from his hand, incinerating several jedi, his Red bladed Lightsaber was a alive with power, and flew through the air, slaying jedi with wild abandon, Rins'zler walked over to the Artefact, picked it up and took it to wear his wife lay mortally wounded, words were not needed for what was about to happen, the Sith Lord, with one hand on the Device and one hand grasping his wife's, he channelled the Darkside though the device and the Darkside Force of Jen'ika fled her failing body and went into the safety of the device.
Orrund was reduced to a barren waste land, its life force ended with the end of the Force Storm that had consumed it, the Jedi and the entire republic forces had equally been consumed, however the Forces of the Empire had remained largely unscathed. Those Sith who had survived the battle were permanently changed by the experience, for some, the exposure to that much Darkside energy was too much ad they would die soon after, however there were three Sith who would come to be greatly enhanced by the experience, of the three, Lord Rins'zler was the one who was blessed with the greatest changes, his physically body had quite literally bonded with the Darkside Energy, his physical form now resembled a black, fluid like shadow, the darkness seemed to swallow any who looked upon him. But what of Jen'ika, she remained within the Artefact, a device built using ancient technology in a similar way to the holocrons, there she would remain for eternity, safely with her husband.
Lord Rins'zler decided that he required space and time away from his Duties as a member of the Sith Council, and utilising his resources he commissioned a modified Marauder class Corvette to be built, this ship would be unique for it would incorporate force circuitry into its design, allowing Jen'ika the freedom of the ship, alongside this vessel, he had a score of 40 droids custom built, each would function as a crew member for this ship, operating its many fictions under the guidance of Jen'ika, however each droid would be given a level of sentience and basic understanding of the Darkside, making them loyal but lethal droids. It took three long moths, but The Hand of Vengeance was finally ready and they left for destinations unknown.
Neither Rins'zler nor The Hand of Vengeance was seen again, that was until they were picked up by New Order Probes in the Korriban System.
Allying with the Brotherhood
Rins'zler had been aware of the Brotherhood for some time, he had previously entered its ranks, but due to the founding of the Hand of Korriban his duties had to be diverted elsewhere, sith the resurgence of the Empire in the guise of The First Order, Rins'zler along with the Hand have taken the chance to make alliances with those Dark Side user who still exist.
The Downfall
The incident that created Rins'zler in his current form stabilised his physical form, however it had not done the same to his mental facilities, 3000 years of knowledge filled his brain, and hidden among this knowledge was a specific set of memories, it was these memories that would break the Dark lord. The specific set of memories revolved around the Death of His Family and the physical death of his wife, these memories had always been a driving force behind his actions, fuelling his access to the force, little did he realise that these would be his failing. It wasn't long after he rejoined the Dark brotherhood that he was overcome by a mysterious attack, he was standing in one of the main chambers of Qel-Droma when he felt his mind begin to fracture, his ethereal form began to writhe and shudder, and without any warning, he collapsed to the floor. Members of the Brotherhood came to his aid and he was taken directly to the nearest medical ward, none of the House medics could ascertain what the cause of his condition was, it was only through a deep probing of his, now unconscious, mind that the mystery was solved, Rins'zler had suffered a massive cerebral shock, his brain had closed of access to massive areas of his memory, to try and protect them from what ever was causing it. Rins'zler awoke three days later, confused and disorientated, his memory in tatters, he still had some knowledge but it was limited, he would now have to spend time recovering from the ordeal and, with the help of his comrades, try and re-gain access to the portions of his memory that were locked away, in the mean time he was now a Hunter, with most of the skills and knowledge that came with it, along with fragments of his former knowledge, it would be some time before he could recover enough to unlock more areas of his mind.
Equipment
Beskar Death Mask
Rins'zler hides his features behind a mask of Mandalorian Iron, custom crafted for him during the times gone by, the mask covers his face with only a mandalorian inspired visor peiercing it, darkness fills the space behind the mask causing fear among those who look upon him.
En'Ya
En'Ya is a custom crafted pair of Lightsabers, Rins'zler has owned these blades for over 2000 years, they can be used as a pair or coupled together to form a saber staff, Rins'zler is lethal with them in either form.
Throwing Sabers
Rins'zler also utilises custom made micro sabers, each hilt is large enough to contain the power supply, crystal and mechanisms to form a short blade, these blades are carried around Rins'zlers waist, hidden beneath his robes, he is able to utilise the force to send these towards his opponent, activating them in mid flight.
Heirloom Blade
Rins'zler has always kept the blade that belonged to his family, it was passed down to him when he attained entrance into the Mandalorian Super Commandos, since then he has kept it safe aboard his Flag Vessel, the blade is a finely crafted weapon, a Vibro Sword of ancient design, it works as well today as it did 3500 years ago.
Equipment in current use
Since his memory loss, Rinsz'ler has been unable to locate the majority of his weapons, he is sure that he has put them somewhere safe, but lacks access to that portion of memory, as it stands he has only the use of En and his Heirloom Blade.
Positions Held
Jandos was Tetrarch of the Qel-droma Battle team for a short time, until urgent events on his homeworld called him away from the Brotherhood.
