The Nagai Race: A Summary
The Nagai are aliens with pale skin, jet-black hair and angular features, they lived on the planet Nagi, beyond the borders of the Old Republic and the Empire. They were originally known as "Knives". They were natural enemies of the Tof, usually waging wars against them. They have the ability to wield many weapons at once, such as, Blasters, Knives, and Light Sabers.
Early Life Autobiography
It all started when I was a very small Nagai boy in the swamps of my home world, Nagi, in the Unknown Regions. Our people had been at war with the Tofs for a very long time! To help with our warring against the Tofs, my people allied with a neighboring species, the Maccabree. I remember when we outfitted them with mechanical limbs for ground fighting. This helped them in our task tremendously. Slowly, our hatred and fear of the Tofs developed even more and it intensified by the Tof conquest of my homeworld, Nagi. This drove the Maccabrees and my people outward into the wider galaxy. I was 4 years old when this took place, and this is where my story begins.
I was down on my knees looking for insects that I could put in a jar. I liked to bring them home so I could add them to my collection. I heard a loud explosion come from over the mountain that was directly in front of me, I looked up to see what it could have been and when I did, I saw one of the largest galaxy class ships flying over the peak of that mountain with flames pouring out from behind it from whatever it was they had just blown to pieces! I didn't know what to think. I had never seen one from this close up before. I had only ever seen them on the news on the holo-projector at home. Whenever I saw them they were always causing trouble somewhere on Nagi, but never this close to home!
It was as if someone on the ship saw me. It stopped cold and hovered over the peak of the mountain... smoke billowing from behind it! I stood there strembling in fear. "What are they going to do?", I thought. I wasn't sure I wanted to find out so I began running as fast I could toward my home. My home was underground, so I knew that no one could have possibly found it. I turned around to see what the ship was doing and I saw a large panel the size of four square city blocks open from the bottom of the ship. I hid behind the nearest tree and peaked around to see what was happening.
"Oh, no!"
I was defenceless! They were upon me!
A Tragedy Strikes
The next thing I knew I was waking up in what looked like some sort of cargo hold in the belly of a ship! I was no longer 4 years old, but had aged 20 years! They took 20 years of my life! "What have they done to me... my family!?"
The last thing I remembered was being attacked by the Tof Soldiers that I saw after peaking around the tree.
I tried to move, but for some reason I just couldn't make my arms and legs do anything my brain told them to do. As you can imagine, I was petrified! I began to hear noises coming from my left. The noises, which sounded like footsteps at the time, sounded like they were coming from down the corridor that I could see from the corner of my eye. "OH NO!" Who is that now?!" I screamed to myself. The second I said that in my head I saw two Tof Soldiers carrying what looked like a man between them on a pole which was resting on each of their shoulders followed by what seemed like hundreds more!
The first man that I saw was about my age, and he was awake. He looked dead, but he was certainly awake because I could see his eyes were wide open and they looked scared. "They did the same thing to him!" I thought again. He just couldn't move either.
They placed him beside me on the table. Directly beside me...
It was as if we both saw the same thing at the same time because we both gasped at the same time... What we saw was unlike anything we had ever seen before. First of all the room we were in was dark and smelled like rotting flesh and the table we were on was so cold I couldn't even feel anything that was touching it!
To make my long story short, he and I managed to escape to Nagi's highest point in the tallest mountains........ and that's when it all started!
The Continuing Autobiography
My life had changed forever after that fateful event in my life. Those Tofs stole 20 years of my life and I wasn't about to let them go unpunished. I lost my childhood to those monsters! First though, let me tell you the story of how the Dark Side emerged within me and how I came to know the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
Jedi Experiences
The Nagai that I escaped with and I were discovered by the Jedi order after we escaped to the highest point in the highest mountains of Nagi; my home planet. They somehow sensed us in the Force when they flew through the atmosphere of the planet on their way to complete a mission. They sensed the deep sadness and anger flowing through us not knowing that it was because of what the Tofs had done. It actually came to my knowledge later in my experiences with the Jedi that they had never even heard of the trouble our people have with this Species until I told them about the incident.
Nevertheless, they followed their senses in the Force and picked us up and took us back to the Jedi Academy. It wasn't until three days later that Jedi Trainee Desann approached me about being able to sense the Force strongly in me.
“The Force is strong with you, but I sense great anger and fear within you.” He said.
“I know Jedi Desann. You would feel it too if you went through what I went through.” I replied.
“All you need is some intense, focused training and I believe you could be a great Jedi Knight. I will speak with the Council about getting some training for you.” He replied.
When I first laid eyes on Desann, I ran in fear because he is a Chistori, who is a lizard-like humanoid who is 6 feet 5½ inches tall. I had never seen his kind before. There was something about Desann, though, that I just couldn't put my finger on. The feeling was elusive and it was as if he was hiding something.
The Training Begins
With a lot of apprehension the Jedi Council decided that it was okay to train me, but to keep a very close eye on my training so that my emotions wouldn't get the best of me and turn me to the Dark Side. The Jedi have had too many of their own betray them for the Dark Side's power that they keep a very tight rein on their Padawan learners and Apprentices. Little did they know they had a betrayer among them already.
Two years had passed and I had already become very powerful in the Force. I was able to control it quicker than I thought I could in this short of time. I loved the power that flowed through me, but I knew that my feelings of wanting more power could only lead me to one place: The dark Side. As much as I wanted more power, I didn't want anything to do with the Dark Side. The Jedi had poisoned my mind against it, but I knew it was speaking to me in a very soft and seductive voice. I could almost hear its sweet voice and feel the soft, dark tendrils of the Force beckoning me when I tried to sleep at night. 'Give in to the rage within you,' it said, 'and you will gain more power than you could ever dream of... then you will be able to get revenge on the ones who hurt you and killed your family....' The voice in my head trailed off into the darkness of my sleep. I wanted nothing more than to avenge myself and my family. I could taste their blood and feel their bones crushing within my grip!
Desann came to me the next day.
“I know you can feel the Dark Side.” Desann said in a voice, that, to this day, still makes me cringe.
“WHAT? What do you mean? I feel no such thing!” I was very defensive. I wanted no one to know of my dreams of power and darkness for fear that the Council would take my Apprenticeship away.
“Don't play games with me!” Desann shouted back in basic. “You're one of us and you know it. You want the power of the Dark Side so much you can taste it! With the Dark Side you will be able to take revenge on the Tofs who took you away from Nagi and took 20 years of your life from you.”
I knew I wanted this power he was talking about. I also knew that I could only get it by giving in to the Dark Side of the Force. I let my guard down just long enough to hear what Desann had to say. My emotions of anger and rage and hatred for the Tofs rose to the surface and I could feel the power of the Dark Side flowing though me!
The Dark Side Emerges - The True Journey Begins
“How can I gain more power? I want this power you speak of!” I came back with fire in my eyes. The tendrils of the Dark Side were swirling in and through me as my hatred and anger got deeper and stronger within me. Desann began telling me about a brotherhood of Dark Jedi who desired this same power and together they would be able to teach me everything I wanted to know about the true, dark nature of the Force. Desann told me that he was in the Jedi temple for one reason and one reason only: to deceive the Jedi and seduce more and more of them to the Dark Side. He masqueraded as a Jedi learner when in actuality he was a Dark Jedi himself who was not even affiliated with the Dark Jedi Brotherhood he referred me to. He just knew of their prominence in the realm of Darkness and knew that they were exactly what I needed to gain the power I sought.
The next day, without even telling my own Master, I took nothing but my robes and myself and went in search of this Dark Jedi Brotherhood. They were also elusive for they did not want to be found by just anyone. They used the Force to cloak their power, but they did not stay hidden for long. Although, I don't believe that I found them with my own strength or power. They summoned me through the Dark swirling tendrils of the Force. I could sense them in my mind and I could think of nothing else. It took four years to finally get in touch with them. I was siting in a tavern in the Crimson Corridor on Coruscant when I was approached by Dark Jedi Knight Malidir d'Tana. He told me that he knew I had been seeking them out because he could feel my Dark energies. I apparently made is very obvious in the Force that I was seeking them out.
Finally, I was taken in by the Dark Jedi Brotherhood as an Initiate and I would finally gain the power I needed for my revenge!

Rho, while on a Soufire mission to Assassinate the AED of CSP
Equipment Used while on Duty with Soulfire
Description:- The scout sniper’s helmet incorporates some highly sophisticated imaging software. It has a telescopic zoom allowing the scout to zoom in and out, and also thermal imaging and low light mode all activated through the datapad attached to the gauntlet; voice controls having been removed to adhere closer to the scout’s covert role. The imaging software used is also able to recognize structures, vehicles and weapons and cross reference the silhouette with its databanks to report what the item is, very useful in collecting intelligence. The helmet also incorporates a recording program so that everything the scout sees is recorded to analysis at a later date. The armour itself is painted matte black and is essentially the same as the rest of the teams except that all extruding items and loose parts have been removed to decrease the noise made.
