Sith Bloodfyre

The last of the Sith High Warriors, Sith Bloodfyre is both a figure of great reputation within some circles of the Brotherhood, and one of great infamy in others.

And, since I don't have any time to edit this right now, that's all you get, suckers. :P

Character History

Sith Bloodfyre is an enigmatic figure, in some respects. Outside of Tarentum, very few know much (if anything) about the Sith Master. He has spoken little of his life before appearing within the Brotherhood, but some things are known.

Sith Bloodfyre is a Shaevalian. Little is known about the Shaevalians as a race, but Sith has verified that they are a very proud, war-like race. Sith has hinted to an extended lifespan among his race, though it is unknown exactly how long a lifespan Shaevalians are afforded. Sith has little-to-no contact with his people these days, though the reasons for this have never been mentioned by the Sith Master.

Sith Bloodfyre first came to the attention of the Brotherhood several years ago. The Shaevalian quickly made his way through the initial training of the Shadow Academy under Headmaster Kumba, the last of the Dark Prophets of Old. After completing the intial phases of Shadow Academy training, Sith joined House Gladius of Clan Tarentum, and was numbered among the Krath Order. After several months of additional training within both the Shadow Academy and Gladius itself, Sith joined with several others of Gladius in forming the once-infamous Phyle, the Mystics of the Black Arts. In those days, the Phyle was feared and respected among the Krath Order.

Advancement within the Krath Order and Tarentum itself came fast for Sith; in relatively no time, he was elevated to the standing of Dark Jedi Knight and Aedile of Gladius under Aari Nikus, and then shortly after to the rank of Krath Priest and Quaestor of Gladius upon Aari's departure. Sith made a name for himself as a dedicated leader, and as one of the respected members of the Krath. In relatively short time, during one particular conflict involving the Krath, Sith proved himself to the Krath High Priestess at the time, and he was elevated to the rank of Archpriest. For more than a year, Sith Bloodfyre led House Gladius, and the House helped to maintain the reputation of Tarentum that it had enjoyed throughout the ages.

Time passed. For a time, Sith stepped aside from the duties of Gladius. When the split from the Imperial Remnant transpired, Sith returned to assist Tarentum in weathering the conflict. For a time, Sith returned to lead Gladius, but was soon tapped as the Proconsul of Tarentum itself, serving under Consul Ziguarath. Though Ziguarath was a willing leader, forces transpired to end his reign; Sith Bloodfyre became Consul of Tarentum. Some refer to the first term of Sith Bloodfyre as Consul to be one of the "golden ages" of Tarentum. It was during this time that Tarentum's dominance re-emerged, and much of the new became rejoined with the old. Sith helped to bring about the return of figures such as Maxamillian von Oberst, and the revered Master (DB)Zero to the Clan. War eventually came upon the Brotherhood, and Tarentum was narrowly edged out of a victory by Taldryan by a mere 600 points; no one could deny the abilities of Tarentum and her Consul.

With the end of the War against the so-called "Consciousness," the Dark Council called upon Tarentum to fill a vacancy; the Sith High Warrior, Xanos Sadow, had resigned his post. Sith Bloodfyre was called to lead the Sith Order. During the War against the Consciousness, Sith had been raised to the level of Elder, attaining status as an Adept of the Sith; soon after his elevation to Sith High Warrior, Bloodfyre became a Master within the Order, and began to delve into the ancient tomes and holocrons of the ancient Sith. It seemed that a time of rebirth was slowly coming about. The Sith Order changed and evolved under the leadership and attention of Sith Bloodfyre, but as before, time passed. For more than a year, Bloodfyre reigned as Sith High Warrior, but was called to return to Tarentum, when the Grand Master, Jac Cotelin, eradicated the Order Leaders of the Brotherhood. In recognition for his excellent service as Sith High Warrior, Bloodfyre was honored with the Silver Sash; few wear the Sash in these modern days, and it is a great honor to bear.

Since returning to Tarentum, Sith has reverted to his old ways, and has focused almost exclusively upon the needs of Tarentum. Where before, Sith had been a true brother of Gladius, Tridens would eventually call upon the Sith Master for aid. Sith became the Aedile of Tridens, assisting the Sith Warrior JKast, before succeeding JKast as Quaestor some time later. The honored Elder, Doni Tzu, became Sith's Aedile, and Tridens has entered a new age under their leadership. There is much in store for Tridens within the near future; with the recent end of the so-called "War of the Jacs," Tarentum's respected Warlord, Welshman Corsair Tarentae, has decided to end his reign as Consul. Welshman's chosen successor as Consul of the ancient Clan is none other than Sith Bloodfyre-Tarentae.

The Clan is in preparation for the once and future Consul to come to power, but in the meantime, Tarentum is celebrating the efforts and victories of Welshman. It is certain that Tarentum's brother and Consul, Welshman, will never be forgotten.

DJB Facts

-Sith has led several projects that have altered and benefitted the Brotherhood in many ways. Chief among these projects are:   (Brotherhood-wide)
    -Clan Powers creation
    -Order Schools creation
    -Gaming Nights evolution (including Sunday Invitational Tournament)
  (Tarentum-specific)
    -Clan Powers (Necromantics)
    -The Keepers (history and use within Tarentum)
    -Land Grants
    -Clan-specific Titles (reborn from past Clan practices)
-Sith was the last in the line of Sith High Warriors, which began as a position known as the "Sith Advisor."
-Sith is considered by some to be the "Prince of Darkness" and the "Harbinger of DOOOOOOM!" of the Brotherhood. Before the selection of Xanos Sadow as current Deputy Grand Master, some believed Sith to be working towards gaining that Council position, and began gossiping about the "end of the Brotherhood" that would come should he be appointed as DGM. Sith believes Jac Cotelin to have been the original source of these rumors, and has thus labelled Jac as "dumb."
