"Too wise for a Sith, Too smart for an Obelisk, Too arrogant for a Krath."

―Chi-Long, speaking of Thran Occasus

" Some things just don't change...Thran is one of 'em"

― Anonymous

Thran Occasus is a member of Clan Scholae Palatinae and a firey member of the Sith Order. He is a wealthy and peculiar man from the Outer Rim world of Bakura. He was born in 1 ABY to a Sith-worshiping woman. A story claims that he emerged from the womb drunk, clutching a set of dice. Thran is a notorious gambler and substance abuser, giving this. While his habits make him appear like a rambunctious youth, he is extraordinarily deep in the ways of the Force and the knowledgeable in the ways of the Universe. He is a philosopher by nature, but hides his mental prowess behind a veil of whiskey and spice. Thran is extremely sly and is very charismatic, when he allows himself to be. People are naturally inclined to follow him and find themselves captured by his slick tongue and razor sharp wit. One of the only things he loves more than himself is the gentle touch of a woman, which has both caused him and prevented more problems than one can count. He is a peculiar man with a very specific and somewhat unconventional set of beliefs about the Dark Side, The Sith, and the dogma of the Jedi. With a wealthy pocketbook, unchecked pride, and blind temper, Occasus' potential for destruction is unfathomable.

Character History

The House that Kast Built

Callus Fen Kast, Father to Thran Occasus, was born in 41 bby on Corellia. He was the heir to a proud family of family of Aristocrats destined for great achievements. When the Galactic Empire took control Corellia, Callus was forced to take the fortunes his family had built up and join forces with the recently established Empire. Shortly there after, forced by the very same Imperial pressures, Kast enlisted in the science schools of the Empire. Callus studied for years at various Imperial Colleges, establishing himself as a great scientist, and thus was allowed to freely roam the galaxy in order toaid the Empire in pursuit of technological advances. While venturing to the remote system of Reecee, the budding scientist crossed paths with a beautiful woman. Like a fairy-tale he fell madly in love with her almost instantly. Callus followed the strange woman to the ends of many worlds, hoping to learn more about her. After a series of strange events, the couple were wed in 3 BBY. In 0 ABY, Callus Fen Kast began working for the Imperial Navy Experimental Divisions. By the fall of the Empire, Kast had established himself as an outstanding man of science, specializing in the field of repulsor technology and mechanized docking actuators. While he was intellectually sharp, Callus seemed detached from all emotion. Shortly after the birth of his first son, Derc, Callus died in a tragic speeder collision. Due in part to the short marriage, his relationship with his wife was marred by rumors and vast amounts of controversy. Before his death, Kast fathered one daughter. While his death was doleful, focus seemed to revolve around his bride.

Aylanna Sokane, wife of Callus Kast, is a clever Dathomiri/Hapan woman with formidable skills in seduction and possesses a flowing with connections to the Force. Her birth date is unknown, judging from her looks it appears to be somewhere around 14 BBY, however her youth is extremely deceptive. She has maintained a look of a woman in her mid Thirties, in spite of her true age. Trained in the ways of the Dark Side, she borders on being called a Sith. Considered as a Witch by her native peoples, she always considered herself as part of the higher class of peoples and above the disgraceful outlook of the general public. From a young age, Aylanna recognized her bodily assets and used them to her advantage. Mysterious and deceptively deep, Sokane used everyone to her own personal gain. Heralding from a curious line of Force-Sensitives, she lived a mostly lonely childhood in the Hapes Consortium. In her late teens she left the region and traveled to the Reecee system, seeking her own way of life. After meeting a collage of “interesting” companions, she began a small philosophical School dedicated to reviving the lost Force arts. For unknown reasons, she surrounded herself with a harem of young women, known as her handmaidens, who studied the Dark Side under her tutelage. One girl, Aphelia, remained especially close to Aylanna. To this day, Aphelia remains at Sokane's side, guardian of the House of Kast. Upon their introduction, Callus Kast, fell madly in love with her and thus fell subject to her every whim. After several years and many planet relocations, the two came to settle on Bakura and were wed shortly there after. In spite of the wedding and change of lifestyle, Aylanna kept young women about the villas and mansions her husband owned, for her own personal court, in order to manage all affairs there. The couple settled down and had a child, Shir'Ciri, their first child and shortly there after had two more children. Callus had built an amazing wealth over many years, allowing his family to travel freely and own many different homes, undoubtedly a fact that Aylanna exploited. The reformed House of Kast revolved firmly around its matriarch, leaving her in charge of many of its administration features, and accordingly most of its money, particularly after the unexpected death of the patriarch.

* Aylanna's Children

Born in the Web of a Black Widow

The Kasts remained comfortable in the shadows of the Empire in pre invasion Bakura. Thran was born a completely healthy and developed child, pre-maturely according to the time frame of his parent’s relationship. Though his father was oblivious, Aylanna spent her time meditating and developing her newborn son, who was already displaying an extreme presence in the Force. Deeply jealous and suspicious of her husband, she began grooming her son into a pillar of the Dark Side. She displayed a strange breed of love, confusing Thran with her cryptic lessons and apparent hatred towards his father and other men. She bred the young Thran into a somewhat more conscious Sith, teaching him in a completely non-conventional way. Always keeping her harem young women around the household during his teenage years was her desperate attempt to keep her oldest son from leaving her home, and to learn her ways. Though wary of my actions, she trusts that the Force will lead everything along its path bringing her plan into fruition, thus she does not fear any repercussion. The extent of teachings is not known to this day, her secrets were held in a force sealed box that is to remain unopened until her son could muster enough of her own betrayed emotion to open it. Aylanna saw it fit to be the coldly cruel to her son, redirecting her own loss of the feeling of love into a scathing blame of a young child. Aylanna became pregnant after being raped by her husband, who assaulted her in a drunken rage. Through a matter of coincedences, a five year old Thran observed it. It has scarred him emotionally and mentally, impacting him in ways that are unimaginable. The Galactic Empire fell and Callus disappeared, mysteriously. For no apparent reason, Aylanna took this newborn son and named Torak, took a vested interest in raising him to be a strong ally against her oldest son, as if to test Thran's very will. This bred animosity and many other evil feelings with the young Derc. Aylanna had intentionally never revealed Derc's name to him, leaving him more mysteries to uncover when he had aged. After the unexplained death of his Father, the continued mental torture continued, leaving the handsome young boy confused, angry, and unstable.

Early Life

Born in 1 ABY, Thran grew up fast. By the fall of the Empire, the strapping young lad spent the majority of his days reading books and playing outdoors by himself. Intentionally done, the child never learned his name. He was simply called “child”, “boy”, or interestingly “Sunset”. Though he was uncannily intelligent and extraordinarily curious about the ways of the world, the young Bakuran suffered from anemia and hemophilia, and thus became ill frequently. After several near death experiences, the young boy was confined to the halls of his gigantic Bakuran Mansion. He could only travel when under full health, and was never allowed to venture anywhere alone. Accordingly, his mother issued two of her handmaidens to remain with him at all times. The Eldest of the maidens, Sarisa, took an extreme liking to the handsome young boy. She nurtured him in the motherly ways that Aylanna could not. When Thran would wake in the night, crying because of nightmares, it was Sarisa that calmed him. The Second of the maidens, a young girl named Jenny'ri, was of Thran's age and became his best friend. At the age of 7, Thran first named himself. Because he had never been called by a name, he chose one that he had overheard in a conversation. While gossiping about local boys one evening, the handmaidens made a particular fuss about a young man name Thran. Instantly hoping to be the apple of their eyes, the young boy began calling himself by that name.

Shortly after adopting this new name, during the peak of his health, young Thran took a trip to a distant wilderness lake with his mother and her maidens. After playing on the beach and dabbling in the water, the group left without the boy. Into the night, Thran went searching for his family and a route home. To his misfortune, the boy encountered a man who had been wanted on the charges of serial murder. Many people had vanished and were likely killed at the hands of this mad man. As the man took the boy to his home to “stay”, Thran felt a sudden unease in the air. As he slept that night, the man crept into his room. As fate would have it, Thran woke before the man could strike. Lunging from the bed, the boy fought with all his heart, unleashing years of pent up rage. Somehow wrestling him to the ground, a small but extremely venomous snake bit the man in the throat. As he contorted and writhed in his last breaths, Thran desecrated the man's body. As he tore him limb from limb, the small serpent climbed over the boy's shoulders as if to draw from the sudden release of evil. There the snake lay all night, until suspicious authorities came in the morning. When they looked at the body, they feared that some sort of wild beast had killed the innocent man. After investigating the house and finding the remains of nearly 100 victims, the police took the boy in for questioning. When he admitted to murdering the psychopath, Thran was released from custody with no further investigation. The serpent that saved the young boy's life soon became iconic for the young lad, and when he was of age he tattooed a likeness of it in the same position that it had laid that night.

As the boy grew older, his health improved dramatically. By his teenage years, Thran had become very handsome and though he was a social outcast, he was sought after by many girls his age. While this prospect amused him, Thran sought only to impress his closest friend, Jenny'ri. At the age of 14, during a school ball, Jenny'ri was struck by her boyfriend. Enraged, Thran, alone, fought 7 of the boy's friends, subsequently killing 2 of them. After finding the body's school officials expelled Thran, a rather light punishment considering the crime. No longer welcomed in town, Thran, again, was forced to remain in his home. As the years went on, Thran became paired with Jenny'ri for the Feather and the Bowl, a Bakuran tradition. Though he did not believe in the religion taught, Thran tried his hardest, and was ultimately named the Feather of his pairing. To this day, he felt guilty that his pairing was with Jenny'ri, as his success doomed her to failure.

At the age of 17, Thran left Bakura without any warning. He left his family and the few friends he had behind. With a pocket full of credits, Thran sought to start his own fortune.

Luck, Lust, and Luster

Stumbling from casino to the bars and back again, became a regular routine for the wild outworlder. In a matter of months, his disgusting luck and incredibly slick methods of cheating, mostly attributed to his uncanny connection to the force, had earned Thran nearly 2 million credits. As the sums of money grew larger and larger, Thran, now in the Recee System, began the life of a playboy. Night after night, he would party until the sun rose. Women came and went faster than the swoops he raced. By age 21, Thran owned several large homes and many properties on many different worlds, all the product of his gambling.

Corporate Sedition

In one game of dice, Thran had bet everything he owned and himself against another man's entire Corporate Empire. Confident that he would win, Thran rolled his way into the greatest portion of his life. Now able to do anything that pleased him, Occasus divided his company into nearly 20 blanket corporations which began to filter more and more money into his coffers. Though the total sum of money Thran makes is unknown, it is suspected to be more than enough to purchase an entire Imperial Fleet. Known to have enough money that any wish he has becomes reality,
