Main Storyline: Fictional Recap

"To understand the Dark Brotherhood's current position, one would be remiss to dismiss the past. The Dark Council has seen many changes and shifts, but at its core remains the same. They might seem small at first, but overtime they have coalesced into a singular vision driven by one man’s ambition and desire for order. These are the changes that have inevitably lead us to our current course. To pinpoint their origin, one would need to go back to the start of the Dark Crusades, I suppose. That is as good of a place as any to start."

―Farrin Xies, Headmaster, 35 ABY

Brotherhood Universe

ORGANIZATIONS
	Inquisitorius	The Inquisitorius are the Grand Master’s covert network of agents. They represent the Brotherhood's strength outside of the Iron Legion and Iron Fleet. While not all that are enrolled are aligned with the Grand Master’s visions, many compete for favor and to rise in the rankings. The Society offers various awards and incentives and is headed by the Voice of the Brotherhood.
File:LotusGraffiti.png	Lotus	The name of the rebel resistance that stands in direct opposition to Darth Pravus, the Lotus fight against the Grand Master and his zealous, militaristic methods of eliminating any who do not fit his vision for a “New Order.” They are prominently supported by the rogue Jedi of Clan Odan-Urr as well as Clan Arcona among other Clans and growing sympathizers.
File:SevenClans.png	The Seven Clans	The seven Clans of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood all hold different motivations and personalities. Arcona, Naga Sadow, Odan-Urr, Plagueis, Scholae Palatinae, Taldryan, Tarentum. A member of each respective unit is referred to in the following manner: Arconan Taldryanite Sadowan Palatinaean Odanite Tarenti Plagueian
	The One Sith	An organization that rose to oppose the Dark Brotherhood and fought an ongoing campaign throughout the Dark Crusades and into the finale of the Eleventh Great Jedi War. After the revelation of their leader being a pawn to the Brotherhood, the organization has since crumbled.
LOCATIONS
REDACTED	Arx	The new Imperial capital homeworld and the seat of the Brotherhood’s power.
	Outer Rim Territories	The Outer Rim Territories, also known as the Outer Rim or Outer Systems, was a sparsely populated region of the galaxy located outside the Mid Rim before Wild Space and the Unknown Regions. The largest region in the galaxy, it was home to diverse worlds and rugged, primitive frontier planets. It is here that the bulk of the Brotherhood’s storyline evolves.
	Antei	The former home system and planet of the Dark Brotherhood. Destroyed by former Grand Master Muz Ashen in a destructive ritual to gain immortality.
PERSONS OF INTEREST
	The Dark Council	The Dark Council serves the Grand Master of the Brotherhood, and governs the various elements of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
File:DracaryisHeadshot.jpg	Dracaryis Sunstrider Fist of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	Dracaryis has been tasked with taking over military operations for the Iron Legion and Iron Navy. He is cunning and eager to test the boundaries of his new power, and has taken on a more bold approach to tactics thanks to his new right hand officer.
File:Marick1 -1975526829.jpg	Marick Tyris Voice of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	Recently separating himself from Clan Arcona by executing the traitor Zakath Agrona, Marick has cemented his position as leader of the Inquisitorius. The Master Assassin has brought a new level of efficiency to the office but faces everyday challenges as both an administrator and bureaucrat.
File:MorganHeadshot.png	Morgan Sorenn Herald of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	Head of diplomatic relationships between the Clans of the Brotherhood, Morgan also has her hands in the criminal syndicates and operations that operate in and around the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Her intentions seem to represent her own interests and remain a mystery to even the Grand Master.
	James Lucius Entar Seneschal of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	The enigmatically eccentric, ever endearing Seneschal heads up the Brotherhood’s Research and Development and also maintains sovereignty over cyber security thanks to his unique artificial intelligence, Construct dbb0t. James has a penchant for riddles and rarely involves himself in political matters, claiming to serve the Brotherhood and the Galaxy at large. He is most often left to his own devices out of both respect and fear.
File:FarrinHeadshot.jpg	Farrin Xies Headmaster of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	The Master Archivist overseeing the Shadow Academy and all of its secrets.
	Evant Taelyan Regent of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	Evant was responsible for forming the Inquisitorius and using it to execute Pravus’ plans to purge the Brotherhood of all he deemed undesirable. This earned him the trust of the Grand Master, leading to his appointment as the Brotherhood’s first Regent. His focus has been on the creation of Arx, the new imperial capital of the Brotherhood, and establishing a base of operations for commerce and construction. Using his vast network of resources, he procures the tools for Pravus’ success such as credit accounts, kyber crystals, and other material acquisitions. Evant is brash, egotistical, and absolutely loyal to Pravus.
File:JacHeadshot.png	Jac Cotelin Justicar of the Brotherhood Character Sheet	Jac Cotelin made a bold statement of support for Grand Master Pravus by turning his back on Clan of Taldryan and launching a full frontal assault on their home planet, Karufr.
	Howlader Master at Arms Character Sheet	Howlader is rarely seen in his office, but his work always seems to get done. Overseeing the ceremony and record keeping of the Brotherhood’s dossiers, Howlader’s allegiance seems to be more to the position he holds than to any one leader or even his home unit.
File:TelarisHeadshot.jpg	Telaris Deputy Grand Master //	Mav ascended to his prestigious position thanks to being the worst ever. He was also implicated in the IRC murder case. Charges were dismissed. (This will remain until Mav updates his CS)
File:Pravus3.png	Darth Pravus Grand Master Character Sheet	Grand Master of the Brotherhood. Leader of the “New Order”. Manipulative, cunning, and utterly dedicated to his vision of a clean, pure, and efficient Brotherhood. The Iron Throne The seat of power for the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. The Iron Navy The Naval Branch of the Iron Throne. The Iron Legion The troops, vehicles and ground forces of the Iron Throne.
N/A	Damon Nix Lord Marshal	The enigmatic strategist behind the Iron Legion looks to ensure that Pravus’ plans proceed as intended. A master of subterfuge and deception, the man who had previously lead the Dark Crusades by posing as the mysterious Darth Esoteric is one of the most dangerous Sith in the Brotherhood for his unpredictable methods and lethal cunning.
File:NecrenHeadshot.jpg	Darth Necren Character Sheet	The Dark Council’s seedy “hitman” is a professional killer and tends to show up wherever violence is needed on behalf of the Grand Master.
	Atra Ventus Combat Master Character Sheet	Faithful to the Brotherhood as an entity unto itself, Atra has taken to his position as Combat Master with zeal. His influence has brought a renewed vigor towards combat instruction for veterans and newcomers alike while acting as a threat assessment tool for the Inquisitorius.
