The Clan's Namesake
- "You must begin by gaining power over yourself; then another; then a group, an order, a world, a species, a group of species… finally, the Galaxy itself."
- ―Darth Plagueis the Wise
Darth Plagueis the Wise
The legendary Sith Lord, Darth Plagueis’ past is shrouded in mystery. A Muun, whose influence touched events in the galaxy for over half a century, Plagueis was discovered and trained by the unknown Sith Master of the time. Little more is known of the Muun Sith Lord’s past other than his choice of apprentice, Darth Sidious.
Although the specific events are unknown, Plagueis chose a gifted Nabooian known as Palpatine. Plagueis trained young Palpatine and declared him furthermore to be known as Darth Sidious. It is believed Plagueis realized that he had found the Sith Lord that would complete the millennium-old plan of Darth Bane: revenge and destruction of the Jedi Order.
From Sidious, it is known that Plagueis trained his apprentice in both the Light and Dark Sides of the Force, revealing Darth Plagueis’ wisdom in the necessity understanding one’s enemy, the Jedi, to assure their eventual destruction. Also revealed by his apprentice, Plagueis was fascinated with the concept of immortality and the possibilities of spontaneous generation, forcing him to delve into the deepest, darkest areas of the Force. By successfully influencing midi-chlorians, Darth Plagueis was able to save people from dying and create life.
After Plagueis had taught his apprentice everything he knew, Sidious killed him in his sleep, declaring himself the new Sith Master. With the ironic death of Plagueis, his legacy through his apprentice survived as Darth Sidious became the Sith Lord destined to take the final steps, to walk among the Jedi unseen, to bring about the destruction of the Jedi Order and the collapse of the Galactic Republic.
History
Unification
23 ABY
Main Article: Dictum of Two Skies
File:Cpwarbanner.jpgPlagueis Warbanner
Clan Exar Kun and Clan Satal Keto had been greatly weakened from the attack of the Crimson Tide. Their wounds ran deep, and they could no longer function as two separate clans of the brotherhood. Going to the Dark Council for help, the Star Chamber visited the two clans in its entirety, and declared that no longer shall they be two clans, but one.
Thus, the Dictum of Two Skies was carried out. New members came to the field, and for a month Jedi fought Jedi in battle for supremacy, and when the dust finally fell, a new band stood together, united by victory and strength, their weaknesses purged and cleansed in a trial by fire. From the ashes of two Clans arose a new one: Plagueis, a new life born of death. Then the Dictum was released, and as their final act, the Elders of the Star Chamber worked a great feat of Force magic - grasping the skeins of reality itself, they wove together the twin fates of Exar Kun and Satal Keto, and merged their powers into one.
The shockwaves of the Star Chambers actions, however, continued to ripple out through the Force, and unknown to all, a forgotten Sith Lord stirred in the embrace of the Dark Side. On the distant tomb planet of Korriban, Darth Plagueis arose from death in the shape of a grim wraith of Shadow and Dust, and called out to those whom had taken on his name.
End of Acarr
23 ABY to 24 ABY
Main Article: Battle of Byfrost
The new clan moved to the Acarr System, previous home of Clan Exar Kun, but they were only there for a few months before the disturbance began to manifest. The amazing feat brought forth by the Star Chamber had affected reality more then thought, and Sigil, Acarr's sun, had been shifted out of balance and was moving towards supernova.
This doom was close, but the Plagueians had time to act – moving like lightning, the Clan mobilized itself, and began evacuation, fleeing to the Jusidah system. It was then that the Crimson Tide returned to seek vengeance on their defeaters, and launched an attack on the moving Plagueis forces. The Clan fought valiantly, and despite overwhelming odds against them, held back the Tide forces until the evacuation could be completed. Then, in a final act of malign vengeance, Kir Katarn and Sarin blockaded the system, trapping the majority of the mercenary forces within as Sigil finally went supernova.
Jusadih
24 ABY
Kapsina, or Sigil 1, is the Clan HQ in the Jusadih SystemWith the Crimson Tide severely crippled, the Dark Jedi of Clan Plagueis settled onto the worlds designated by the Consul. House Exar Kun settled on the planet Aerun, while House Satal Keto settled on the planet Morroth. The Clan Summit and the Council of the Wise settled within the newly constructed Dark Tower on the planet Kapsina, and the various arms of the Clan established their dominance over the populations of the Jusidah System.
The Great Jedi War – “The Enemy Within”
Civil War
25 ABY
Again, however, Clan Plagueis was robbed of its opportunity to advance in the brotherhood. No more then a year after settling into the Jusadih System, civil war erupted in the brotherhood, and Clan Plagueis could do nothing to stop itself from being pulling into the middle of it. Complaints were soaring in from the clans against other clans, and within a month, the clans were split against each other. Then, suddenly a clone of Grand Master Jac Cotelin appeared, and before the clans knew it, they were split between the two Grand Masters.
Clan Plagueis followed the Red Jac, and along with the other two clans continued their fight against the Blue Jac and those that followed him. Still, Clan Plagueis was a new clan, not even two years old, and as such was still growing and vulnerable. Even with the combined fleet and forces of Clan Satal Keto and Clan Exar Kun, the clan suffered great losses in the fighting that followed.
After nearly eight weeks of skirmishes and outright battles, the civil war came to a stop as the Red Jac overwhelmed the Blue Jac, and the true Jac returned to power. Still, relationships between the clans were still thin, and the Justicar would closely watch events for months to follow.
Assault on Diadem
Main Article: Assault on Diadem
Then, just when it seemed Clan Plagueis could barely suffer more losses, rebels on the planet of Aerun attacked Diadem Fortress along with Rogue members of Clan Naga Sadow. Luckily, the majority of the house was there at the time, and they were able to fight off the invaders, but the damage was great, only adding to that of the Great Jedi War.
Peace
25 ABY to Present
Despite the attack on Diadem Fortress, the rebels did not return after their defeat. Finally, after nearly two years of existence, Clan Plagueis was given time to grow. Over the next two years, they suffered great leadership changes in clan and house summit, but they also greatly increased their profits by gaining control of Sistros Acquisitions and Holdings. They also improved their lore by writing their full history, they improved their fleet, and they continued to gain new members and push them through the ranks. Over two years, Clan Plagueis slowly grew in status and reputation, but the time to show its newfound glory was still to come, and glory it would show.
