- "A true victory is to make your enemy see they were wrong to oppose you in the first place. To force them to acknowledge your greatness."
- ―Teylas Ramar, 51 BBY
Teylas Ramar is an Falleen Sith who currently serves as the Dread Lord of Clan Plagueis within the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Teylas' personality could be described as calculating, patient, and meticulous. He is arrogant, sometimes sadistic, but always just. In any combat situation, his nature as a strategist becomes apparent as he prefers to allow his opponent to make the first move. This allows him to both judge the combat effectiveness and tactics of his enemy while also allowing his opponent to become the aggressor. Ramar is an adherent of the recorded teachings of Darth Tyranus particularly his mastery in the art of dueling.
History
Returning to the Dark Side
- "Wolves do not concern themselves with the opinion of sheep."
- ―Teylas Ramar, 24 ABY
In the year 29 ABY, Teylas found his way to the Dark Brotherhood. Solus Gar, a powerful Sith within the Brotherhood, was tasked with reacclimating Teylas with many of the arts he hadn't used in nearly a century. Quick to return to form, the Falleen studied much of what had happened since the last time he had ventured so far out into the galaxy. As his skills sharpened he found a home for himself in Clan Plagueis.
The first major campaign that Teylas took part in was the conquering of the Outer Rim world of Nfolgai during the war against the One Sith. During the assault and pillaging of Nfolgai was also when Clan Plagueis revealed itself to the galaxy again after the remainder of the Brotherhood believed it to be destroyed. The Ascendant Fleet wasted no time moving onto their next target, Khar Delba, in order to claim the ancient Temple of Naga Sadow from right under the Sadowans. Teylas was a member of the strike team which was assigned to explore the decoy fortress on Khar Delba's icy surface. During the landing attempt, the strike team's shuttle was sabotaged and they were eventually incapacitated and captured. Finding that the culprit behind it was Xander Drax, the entire group was tortured for information and, in some cases, the sheer joy of it. During their escape and attempt to reunite with the rest of the team, Teylas and Arden Karn were forced to combat Drax's apprentice, Fuuka Ashasti. Although the two inexperienced Sith were no match for Ashasti one-on-one, they were able to use their numbers to outsmart the Sith apprentice. This gave Teylas the opportunity to deliver the crushing blows which defeated Ashasti, allowing him to feed on her soup.
During the campaign to win the spoils of the desert planet Ch'hodos Teylas was assigned by Alaris Jinn to oversee Sith assault operations from orbit on the BAC Terminus. Fighting the assault on the ground would have been preferable for the Falleen, but the experience of commanding from behind the front line only further improved his skills as a tactician.
As Plagueis' power base expanded, so did Teylas' position within Clan Plagueis. With his skill and power only outmatched by his ambition, Teylas quickly rose within the ranks as a pivotal player in the shadow takeover of Hyperdyne Manufacturing as a capitalist asset of Clan Plagueis, the purging of the ancient evils in the bowels of the Anchorage, and the Plagueis Civil War. The latter of which led directly to his ascension to the position of the Dread Lord's Wrath. However, the Plagueis Civil War, best described as a shadow puppet war, took its toll on the Dread Lord at the time, Vivackus Kavon, resulting in his death and later mysterious resurrection in another body. The new body was too much for Vivackus to control and was slowly driving him mad forcing him to step down as the Dread Lord.
Teylas went unchallenged ascending to the position of Dread Lord and commander of Clan Plagueis. He immediately cast out many of the old ways seeing the path of destruction that the treachery and deceitfulness of the past few years had on Clan Plagueis. A more structured, more efficient, culture was put into place with a more balanced share of power among the Lords of Plagueis to ensure a stronger loyalty to the Dread Lord. As Dread Lord, Teylas refused to let the clan again be decimated by the easily avoidable chaos that ravaged the clan for so long.
Appearance
Physical Characteristics
Teylas is easily distinguished by a strong, chiseled face that blends naturally with his pure green skin tone. He typically keeps his thick, black hair slicked back into a ponytail, and clean shaven on the face to match this kept style.
Attire
Teylas, loathing the inability to maneuver that comes with more armored clothing, prefers lighter robes. His silk undershirt is a deep purple and is accented with a long, leather jacket fastened by a large, metallic belt bucket that displays the sigil of Clan Plagueis. The jacket itself is also accented with gauntlet-like sleeves near the cuffs. The robes are more than just for maneuverability, however, as they also have practicability. The gloves gauntlet-like ends allow for storage of small items, as does the clasped-belt. The outfit is rounded off with leather pants, and knee-high leather boots.
