Korvyn was also an agent for the Nightstalkers during this time taking on many dangerous Covert operations. Most of these Missions involved the assassination of political enemies of the Emperor’s Hammer. Korvyn met up with his Mentor Dante on a remote desert planet and was informed that the Nightstalkers and all those affiliated with them had been branded as traitors to the Emperor’s Hammer. However, one member still needed rescued and Korvyn volunteered himself for the distraction that would make it possible, though it would cost him dearly.
Arriving back to Coronada, home world of Clan Arcona, Korvyn was summoned to the great hall on Eos. After a make believe Trial Korvyn was branded a traitor by the Emperor's Hammer and his force powers were stripped. It was during this time that the last of the Operatives made his escape unnoticed.

Finding Darkness
Korvyn reached out to his former Krath High Priest Troutrooper in his preparations for leaving the Emperor's Hammer and learned of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Believing that the enemy of his Enemy was his ally Korvyn joined up.
He was stationed in Clan Tarentum during the Incursion of the Vong but soon after grew tired of their self segregation. He was eventually transferred into House Dorimad Sol of Clan Scholae Palatinae.

Power of the Dark Side
Serving House Dorimad Sol
Korvyn's service to House Dorimad Sol began almost immediately. It had been known for sometime that a new Criminal Organization had become active on Caina. With his background in Infiltration and assassination Korvyn was selected by the House summit to Take out this new group. It was during this time that Korvyn began a dangerous game that almost ended everything he had worked so hard to gain.
Starting the mission Korvyn spent alot of his time in the nearly destroyed city of Cervus. The Vong attack here had been nothing short of brutal. the city had nearly been leveled and the people had lost everything. That made it fertile ground for recruitment into a criminal life full of the promise of easy money. He made no efforts to hide his power in the force. Instead he Drank plentifully and accrued some very large gambling debts. Eventually he got what he had been looking for. He owed more money than anyone thought he could pay and owed it to the people he was seeking out.
His service to the organization began like most in exchange for relief of a part of his gambling debts he would supply information about patrol times and such. This gave the organization a great deal of room to grow and gave Korvyn more chances to earn their trust.
During this time he met a young waitress named Anarya Elvendar. Korvyn was taken with her instantly. After many conversations he found that like him she had a rough life early on. he also saw the raw untapped power of the force in her. Eventually the two took their relationship a step further.
Banshee Brigade
In 28 aby Korvyn was approached by Thran Occasus to lead the Banshee Brigade. It was a great honor but still Korvyn sought direction through the force. After many days of meditation Korvyn returned to the house summit and accepted the privilege of reforming and leading the brigade. It was also at this time that Korvyn accepted the invitation to become the apprentice of Cethgus Incendia. The two worked side by side and brought about great changes to the battle teams in House Dorimad Sol.
These two events coupled with his newly gained trust in the Criminal group strengthened his ability to manipulate things to his advantage. However his new responsibilities kept him away from his love for months at a time. He hated that fact but knew his service to his clan had to come before everything else. Soon though the most dangerous part of his life as a double agent would be thrust upon him.
Rollmaster
Eventually the force pulled Korvyn in another direction. It spoke in whispers that he had not felt in years and Korvyn knew it was time to get back to his roots in the Force. He first accepted the position of Rollmaster within the house. This afforded him the ability to both observe and guide the new recruits coming in, but also to study the force more. His new office soon began to look more like a library than office. with rows of shelves, Holovids and even Ancient Sith art. He had once again returned to his Krath roots and was energized once again.
It also afforded him access to information that made him now indispensable to his other life. No longer could they hold his gambling debts over him. He now had power prestige and wealth. The group however learned of his relationship with Anarya Elvendar. Threatening to end her life Korvyn kept at his double life. Eventually coming up with a dangerous plan to both get his love out from under their threatening gaze and prove to them that he was completely under their control.
In an act of what could only be called a Krath mentality Korvyn began Flirting with one of his House Mates, Robin Hawk. The two had been friends for some time and she was the natural choice for this phase of the plan. It was hard to tell Anarya of his affair and the subsequent breakup was rough on him. Many of the underlings paid dearly for his pain.
Sacrifice and Honor
Eventually duty called for him to once again make a great Sacrifice for his House. In the waning hours of the night Angelo Dante would once again call on Korvyn to take on a dangerous and secret mission. Renouncing his title as Rollmaster Korvyn left abruptly not to be seen or heard from for a long time. But not before he shared his secret with Robin Hawk. She didn't take it well and Korvyn left the meeting with many bruises and a few broken ribs. Which he used to his advantage in convincing his new masters that he had left the House to serve only them.
Dante and Korvyn laid out a course of events that would serve House Dorimad Sol and rid them of the unwanted intrusion of their planet. Korvyn started leading attacks on troops from House Dorimad Sol. Of course these troops and Jedi he was killing had been those considered to weak and inferior to continue their training. It trimmed the fat from the house and led to Korvyn gaining access to the highest members of the operation he had infiltrated. Now his goal was almost achieved and he made preparations for his return to his life in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
One thing he had not planned however was that Anarya would give birth to a daughter. He knew instantly that it was his, the connection in the force was unmistakable. He Told Anarya everything that had happened and why he was forced to do the things that he did. he also informed her of her power in the force and that with training she too could become a dark Jedi as he was. However their daughter would be need to be hidden away somewhere safe. It was a hard decision for her but eventually she agreed to begin her training.
With that taken care of Korvyn set his sights on finishing all that he had set out too. Convincing the leaders of the organization that they needed to attack the Dark Jedi in a full frontal attack they gathered every man they could. Once the attack force had been been assembled Korvyn executed his final part of the plan. The leaders fell beneath the onslaught of Force and Saber that unleashed upon them. The so called army they assembled were destroyed as the ice caves they used as a staging ground were bombarded by the Star destroyers and Imperial Bombers that had been sent by Angelo Dante
With his mission successfully completed Korvyn returned to Castle Dorimad Sol with his new Wife. There her training would begin and though he received no accolades for his mission he had the Honor of Knowing that once again His House had depended on him and he had brought them a victory no matter how secret it was. He also took the name of his wife as his last name. He had never really known his and it seemed only fitting that the two share hers.
Betrayal of a Master
As with all users of the force the thirst for power is sometimes both an ally and an enemy. Eventually Cethgus Incendia could no longer stand the fact that his apprentice had far exceeded his own position. Instead of submitting to that fact he began a journey into Betrayal. It started off small with just a word here of there and eventually led to him betraying not just his apprentice but also the House and Clan that he had once fought so bravely to defend. Corrupting his troops he led a whole legion of troops with him to join another Clan. This has earned him both a death warrant from the Clan as well as Korvyn renouncing him as master and personally vowing to gain revenge for his House and Clan.
