Character History

Before the Brotherhood

Peaceful Times (4 BBY - 20 ABY)

"Her eyes are those of another. She is no daughter of mine!"

―Chal Quatremaine on his return home from service.

Chal Quatremaine was a light Jedi in service to the Council, and had always been working for them since the end of Chal's training. Despite his long times spent away from his native planet of Omwat, he managed to spare enough time to occasionally come home to visit his newly wedded wife. The youth of the bride, eighteen, had sent many whispers and tongues wagging since it was heavily believed that children should only be born within a united (married) couple and that the mother of a child who wasn't born in this united couple would suffer a painful and early death. Nine months after the marriage, their first child Tybalt was born, and whenever Chal visited, Axelle would turn out to be pregnant by the end of it. For Chal's first six years of service, he returned home annually, and then he suddenly stayed for five years, before returning home, and leaving again to return to service for another four years.

On Omwat in 7 ABY, Xathia was born as Nyx Quatremaine. Seventh of seven children, she was treated strictly due to her strange brightly coloured eyes which was rumoured to be the result of an affair or rape from the raid of the light Jedi which had occurred about ten months before the girl’s birth. Her light hair was never cut, and reached her waist by the time she turned four, and upon her father's return home, she was locked away in the basement.

Her skin severely paled over the next year as her father refused to believe that she was his offspring and was often subjected to having to watch her mother being beaten in front of her, scarring the young mind that this was the idea of love.

When she was let out of the basement during the day times at the age of five, she was willing to be shaped into the ideal daughter that her father wanted her to be and would usually do all the house chores that no one else would do just to try and please him. For the next two years, her life had no difference as her father refused to let her go to school as his opinion of Nyx was that she was only gutter worthy material.

After her eldest sister and brother had worked together and argued against their father’s decision to keep Nyx housebound, she was enrolled into the local school. She soon found herself in scuffles as she had never experienced species other then humans and often had her attention wandering to staring at the expanded culture, though she would not talk easily as she was not use to beings. Her teachers often despaired at her lack of attention, though she soon demonstrated strong Force ties and forced others away from her. Her sole friend was an Omwati by the name of Bryna for her time spent at the school. Her Force usage against those who teased and bullied her kept other children away from her. Her free time was spent in junk yards to keep out of her father’s wrath which had grown into a cold hatred as the rumour was truth in his mind and his determination to hurt Nyx grew with each passing day as he was drowning in his addictions to andris spice and alcohol. She soon befriended the owner of the junk yard, Chi'thiac, who taught her how to create droids and kept her droid projects secret and known to anyone who stumbled over them as his.

Her father was also rumoured to be hoarding prophecies that he had collected during his services to the Council, which many of the community held responsible for his withdrawal from everyone and his awkward behaviour to those he did communicate with. Many whispers of the town gossips indicated that Chal had seen and heard the prophecies of his seven children, and was also determined to not allow for any of them to come true.

Turmoil Erupts (20 ABY)

"She's worthless. She should be grateful she's alive and living under my roof."

― Chal Quatremaine about Nyx

Upon turning thirteen, the young and blossoming girl soon tired of evading her abusive and controlling father. Her siblings had all conformed to his ideals, and she had seen their vibrant, individual characters merge into one huge bland one. Her confrontation towards the head of the family was violent as punches and objects were thrown amongst the vivid language used and also the discovery of Nyx’s Dark Force came out as she tried to kill her father. Chal then refused to even consider her as the seventh child that was pre-seen in the prophecy and declared it to be lie, it was at this point discovered that Chal had found the prophecies related to his children and altered their personalities accordingly.

"Nyx, go to the Street dwellers, and tell them that I have sent you. They will take care of you until you can leave this damned place. Do not stay a second longer then you must in this town, you are already somewhat of a celebrity thanks to your father."
"He is not my father, his actions were not those of a father to me Chi'thiac."

―A conversation between Nyx and Chi'thiac hours before the raid.

She was discarded onto the dusty streets with few belongings, mainly those she had been able to gather together before the fight. Her first escape was to the junk yard where she finished the latest protocol K-3P0 droid, who was to become her faithful companion, Kai. However, hours after the droid had been tested and properly finished, and merely days after Nyx's arrival; the cabin was raided for the arrest of Chi'thiac. Nyx and Kai quietly escaped through a broken side panel and ran towards the alleys of the city under Chi'thiac's hushed instructions to find a group of street dwellers to live with until she could leave the town for somewhere with better prospects. The female had first discovered what hate really meant.

Settled Status (20 - 25 ABY)

"She has the force strong within her. We will find this of use if we train her right and treat her right."

―Zadox to Chras and Inrel about Xathia

Nyx stumbled across the local group of street dwellers, many of whom were older then her. Although her reluctance to approach them, she knew of nowhere else to go. One particular teenage Omwati male, Karmc, took her under his wing and took care of her whilst she learnt the ways of the street life. Nyx soon became a main focus of the group as she kept unwanted beings away with the use of the Force whilst also hiding them from the authorities. One of the eldest members of the group soon decided to rename the young girl Xathia, meaning 'silver shadow', to shed her of the outside life she had and to prove she was now one of them.

A few weeks after Xathia had been induced into the group, a few of them were lurking around the local weaponry market in hope to obtain the girl a first weapon as well as being able to steal some for profit. Stalls upon stalls of glistening metal blades lit up the eyes of them all. Her two companions, Inrel and Karmc, were talking to the stall owner, making sure his back was turned as Xathia chose her dagger of choice and swiftly stole the custom made blade before dashing back to the street dweller’s alleyway. She soon learnt to fight and defend herself under the training and supervision of the elder members.

"She is pretty, but arrogant. She has her own ideas, and despite everything, she just appears to be the perfect picture of innocent. Who is she though?"

―Juda upon first meeting Xathia.

One particular day whilst robbing the local market, Xathia and Juda's paths crossed. Xathia was playing as a decoy to distract attention whilst three companions, Karmc, Chras and Ricga, stole various items off the stalls. However, a vendor looked back, and shot Ricga as he tried to steal food. The act was dropped immediately, as the other three raced towards his through the heavy crowd. Juda had also been amongst the crowd, watching the quadruplet do their work, and followed through the crowd to get to Ricga who he attempted to save. Xathia swore against Juda's lack of success to get back at him in her anger and bitterness at losing a close friend.

One particular battle with the head of the group at the age of seventeen left Xathia with a scar on her left cheek and also forced her to run away from the group with Kai. This battle left Xathia believing that love was not something to want.

Discovery of the Brotherhood (26 ABY)

"Why should I trust you?"
"Because you have no one else left"

―A conversation between Xathia and Fionn upon meeting

Xathia’s wanderings to nearby cities took over six months as she passed her eighteenth birthday. The scar on her face was harsh since the wound had taken a while to heal, and meant her face would usually be cloaked or covered to avoid other beings staring at her, when all she wanted was to blend away into the crowds. Her small thieving went unnoticed as she stole to survive whilst travelling. Her last gem that was stolen was a standard Krath War Blade from a vendor, which she was caught doing but managed to hide away.

Unknown to the young human, she was followed by a member of the brotherhood who had watched her use of the Dark Force to conceal herself from her chasers as she progressed away from one town and into another. His quiet talking and easing her into the idea of joining was a somewhat lengthy process of four months, at which she stayed in his accommodation and soon found herself agreeing to it as soon as the mission he was completing for Arcona had been done. During this time, the girl built her second Protocol droid, Dai'Lic, and also was given a set of locust knives from Fionn, which were the first weapons she owned that had not been stolen.

Fionn coaxed Xathia into the idea of joining with promises of a sturdy home, with other people like her, along with the chance to study further into the Dark Side of the Force and become a successful Dark Knight. Her past haunted her mind at the thought of these promises, when the whispers of embracing the emotions were said to strengthen the Dark Knights, and the Dark were nothing like the Light.

She kept her given name of Xathia, but adopted the stranger’s surname of dan Locut’Hal.

The journey to Antei was uneventful in Xathia's terms, as the Omwat Authorities only tried to take the ship three times before they were lost and well on the way to the Brotherhood.

Finding Darkness

"Curiosity and determination will be the end of that girl."

―Xathia's Lyspair tutor

The female swiftly adapted to the training that was received upon Lyspair, although she was finding the idea of rules and authority to follow difficult. She had several brushings with the teachers within days of her arrival. Xathia's determined streak however did lead to the girl studying furiously to get past Lyspair. Xathia was anxious to get back together with Fionn, and get properly into the Brotherhood, to see if it was different from the Light side. She wasn't fully comfortable with other students and frequently fought at what she judged to be a threat as her street instincts were still fully tuned, and these were only emphasised by the distance from Omwat that the young girl was. The only thing that held her back, were her basic skills since she had not advanced as far as most had due to the lack of schooling she had received, yet the stubborn personality of the female and her long concentration span soon made up for it.

Arcona

Joining Clan Arcona

As soon as Xathia's Lyspair training was completed, she was whisked off to Arcona. The girl had hoped to be placed with Fionn, only to find that although they resided in the same clan, they were separated by House, with Fionn in Oriens Obscurum and the female in Galeres. The Quaestor of Galeres, Priest Selene d'Tana, took an immediate interest in Xathia and took to guiding her and pushing her as she swiftly promoted from Apprentice to Protector. Xathia soon made some fast and hard friends, and became appreciating of Selene's friendship and guidance as she furiously studied to get promoted further.

The girl was introduced by Selene to the idea of qualifying for the Antei Combat Centre. Selene knew that Xathia was well trained in defence and attack, and her anger would be taken out in an appropriate manner instead of dwelling inside her, whilst further training the girl's Force usage. Xathia also spent a fair amount of time in the Shadow Academy for her early promotions, preferring to study to try and bring her understanding of the way the Brotherhood worked into a better and higher perspective.

Upon turning Acolyte, Xathia was paired with her first master, Valnir. The pair worked together to get the girl further and also induced her into the Krath battle team Qel-Droma, only for Valnir to disappear after a couple of weeks on a mission and never to return, reminding Xathia strongly of her street days and the words of the dwellers 'never rely on anyone to stay around, everyone only has their own interests at heart.' She became cold, irritated and snappy, only blaming herself for becoming too comfortable in the area and leaving herself open and vulnerable. Selene came to Xathia aide, and offered to take her on alongside her current student, Orv, and train her. The girl accepted her KCE's offer.

Arcona and Scholae Palatinae Feud

Around six weeks after Xathia's arrival into the Clan, a Feud erupted with a rival clan. The girl was aware of the five other clans, but she had rarely come into contact with any of them due to her focus upon her own clan. Xathia participated in numerous events and watched her clan gain more and more points over what her clan mates called 'the lesser clan', however more and more members were also considering their moves out of Arcona during the Feud. Xathia was promoted part way through the Feud to Protector. The girl was confused as to why the hatred between the two clans, until she learnt that Clan Scholae Palatinae had once been destroyed down to a House and forced into Arcona. Her master seemed to be having conflicts between loyalty to friends and her clan as she spent many hours in her office.

One day, Xathia was called to Selene's office, and upon arrival, became faced with a strange woman whom she had vaguely remembered seeing around the Antei Combat Centre training rooms just before she had entered her Qualification battle. The woman was introduced as Rasilvenaira StormRaven, close friend of Selene, and Aedile of House Caliburnus and KCE of Scholae Palatinae. Although from rival clans, Rasilvenaira and Xathia took to each other warmly and started talking on a regular basis.

The Feud soon ended, and the two clans returned to their own territories, Arcona had claimed the victory and took to waving it around. Although some members seemed to have rubbed the female up the wrong way, as scuffles in the Clan and House buildings with Xathia became common shortly after the Feud. Her promotion work also seemed to be distracted as Xathia found herself on missions, the first one to collect debt on Valnir's behalf since he wasn't around to do so.

Xathia also seemed to find herself increasingly alone as many people transferred out of Arcona, namely Fionn and Selene, and into Scholae Palatinae. The Protector didn't understand why they had transferred into the Clan, until she visited them herself. The members she found were much more accepting of people as they were, as well as more relaxed towards everyone who was tolerate of them. The female returned to Arcona, and found herself torn between joining them, and staying where she was, as she was aware of a fair sized mission that would be taking her attention away from the majority of the Brotherhood. When faced with her Consul, Strategos, the girl requested a transfer out to Scholae Palatinae, completing the line of Arconans to leave after the Feud.

Scholae Palatinae

Transferring to Clan Scholae Palatinae

"So you are CSP now Xathia? Great, get to work on that competition."

―Phoenix to Xathia on her arrival at Judecca

The journey to Judecca was interesting to the female as it allowed her time to think about what would lying soon ahead of her. Immediately upon her arrival at Scholae Palatinae, the Proconsul, Phoenix, pushed Xathia to make her first contribution to the clan. The master and student relationship with Selene was continued as Selene had replace Rasilvenaira as KCE of Scholae Palatinae, and allowed for her to easily settle into her new home. Again, although her and Fionn were in the same clan, they were separated by House as Xathia resided in House Acclivis Draco, and Fionn in Caliburnus.

Xathia also failed to keep herself out of minor scuffles in her new clan, as she collided with Knight Cethgus on her first day. The pair somehow managed to cause little damage and locked each other into cupboards. The wait to be unlocked was prolonged by a lecture from Selene through the cupboard door. There were repeat offences between the pair, and usually ended in similar results, for a number of days, until Fionn shared with the female that the Knight was his master. Although not impressed by his choice, Xathia respected it and kept her distance from Cethgus.

Soon after the ending of the scuffles, Xathia had heard the rumours of a female Twi'lek using others to get back at a former flame, and recording her dealings with them onto Holocron to play back, adding salt to the wounds. The female had already had evenings and nights with Cuchulain, a resident Pontifex, after sessions of drinking, and it was already well known amongst several male members that the female was not that fussy about who she went with, although Wookies (which she referred to fondly as 'Walking carpets') had always been out of the question. The female was approached by the Twi'lek and seduced into the idea of sleeping together. Xathia's curiosity overran her slight doubts as she had never encountered Twi'leks before arriving at Lyspair. A Holocron recording was made of the pair, and has yet to leave Cuchulain's hands ever since the making.

Distracted and Unfocused

"This is no longer your area Xathia, leave or be destroyed!"
"I believe it is you who will be destroyed Zadox. You no longer possess the higher quality of training."

―A conversation between Xathia and Zadox.

A few weeks into Xathia's entry into her second clan, the Rite of Supremacy was announced. Selene had noted her apprentice's distraction from the Clan and Brotherhood and judged that it would be better to send her on a mission to collect information from her home planet, Omwat, rather then try to compete for the clan. She had suspected that Xathia was hoarding extreme injustice inside herself over something, yet very few seemed to know anything aside from that Fionn had found her in a town, and watched her steal the sword she heavily prized then conceal herself from the chasers. Despite Selene's interest in finding out more, she wanted the female to overcome what was distracting her. The girl used her newer droid, Dai'Lic to fly out to Omwat, on a borrowed ship. The journey was spent peacefully as they avoided detection of the authorities, not that they would be working with each other anyway. Xathia stepped off the ship, and walked through her home town in her robes. She hadn't seen the streets in just over a year, but it all seemed so strange. The Chief of the Street Dwellers caught sight of the female, and seemed almost hesitant to approach her, before deciding to see why she was imposing on his territory. The resulting fight between the pair brought the human's presence to the authority's attention, as well as her family's. Xathia chased after her siblings as soon as she saw them, with Zadox following her, believing that she was choosing to run from the fight. The training sabre that was clipped to the belt of the Protector fell off in the crowd and made them aware of her 'special ability'.

"She's a Jedi! She has a lightsabre."

―An onlooker upon finding the sabre.

Zadox admitted defeat as soon as the sabre was discovered, leaving the girl to chase her family through the streets after she had collected her hilt back via the Force, though soon afterwards they were lost to the many faces. She had settled her brewing fight with Zadox, but she had not yet managed to find her father and settle her debt with him. However the authorities had now located Xathia, and were intent on actually catching her to hand over to the Jedi. She narrowly escaped capture as she boarded the ship in haste and took off badly since she refused to let Dai'Lic do so. The bot took over the controls as they flew away to Kapsina to try and lose the authorities without giving away the true planet on which the girl resided.

Once on Kapsina, Xathia left to visit the local café for a refreshing change of scenery as soon as the Omwati authorities had been lost. There the female ran into an Arconan, knocking his table and spilling his beverage into his lap, thus starting a fight. The result being the couple were thrown out, before Juda was called back to Soulfire. They have sworn vengeance against each other ever since, as Xathia doesn't remember the male from their first meeting since Zadox compressed her memory of the event.

Xathia returned to Judecca with a greatly improved interest shortly after the end of the Rite of Supremacy, and was promoted to the rank of Guardian.

Rivalry

"You will die at my hands Xathia!"
"I refuse to die at the hands of those who are morons."

―Xathia and Juda in a pre-battle conversation.

Juda chased the girl down again shortly after they had both been promoted to Guardian and challenged her in the Antei Combat Centre. Though they both were equally determined to beat the other, and sustained a fair amount of injuries, Juda was lead away victorious. Xathia's Locust knives had to be repaired after the battle since one had been clean broken, and another had broken parts of metal missing from the blade. The fight did little to solve anything of their differences and only fuelled their anger at each other.

The Disappearance (27 ABY)

"You'll get to the position you want one day, and remember, no matter who tells you to do something, you only have to follow it if I tell you something and if you want to do it."

―Selene to Xathia

Xathia and Selene's master and student relationship had worked very well in their favour. Progressing through the ranks at the speed the female was comfortable with whilst forging a tight and trusting friendship. The girl was once again called to Selene's office, and was this time faced with another Guardian, and a Protector. The Guardian appeared to be somewhat older then the female, and nothing extra ordinary about him, the Protector however, had piercing blue eyes and a shocking blue mohawk. Xathia's first desire was to question if the blue was natural or not, but suppressed it whilst in front of her master. Selene introduced the pair as Syphoc Rilkel, and Yzarc Rellik. Syphoc resided in the same house as the female, and had recently transferred in from going rouge for a year, whereas Yzarc was new to the Brotherhood altogether.

The Guardian understood that Selene would take the two males on additionally as apprentices, since Xathia did not take up huge amounts of her time and was considered fairly independent. However, a few days later, the girl went to Selene's office to ask about taking a second mission back to Omwat, only to find the office empty, and not a single thing to tell Xathia where she was. Syphoc caught up with the female and also asked about Selene's apparent disappearance. The girl tracked down the Roll Master, Cuchulain, and got him to let them borrow a ship to leave for Judecca.

Upon arrival at Judecca, Braecen and Phoenix appeared to be around in several different places at once and Syphoc and Xathia were told to return another day. Xathia roughly refused and tried to push her way through, resulting in the much needed attention of the Consul who saw to them immediately as soon as he realised who the pair were. Once in his office, Braecen explained that Selene had simply left. There appeared to be no reason for her disappearance, and left the Clan without a KCE, and three apprentices without a master.

Another Leader

"I've just turned into my father, I've started drinking away my problems. I should have learnt my lesson about people the first time around, and not the third."

― Xathia in a drunken slur to Cuchulain.

The female retreated back to her own quarters back at Ptolomea as soon as they were able to leave Judecca. Syphoc left the ship, and seemed to turn elsewhere, though many people tried to get answers off the girl, she simply ignored them and continued the fight to get through. Once there in her own place, she sat on the floor, and sank into her own thoughts. She was alone yet again, and the lesson of never letting anyone get close to you seemed to be a perfect option, yet she had failed to learn that lesson yet again. The female had no idea how long she actually spent inside her place without moving as time seemed to have no object when she was focused upon her thoughts.

After a few days, Xathia ventured out of her room. She had not slept, nor ate. The only reason she had left was to scrounge together drinks since her alcohol stash had finally run dry. The Roll master, Cuchulain, picked the female off the floor of the corridor nearby to the kitchens and took her through to them. It was there that she remained until the Quaestor, RevengeX, had her moved to the medical part with suspected alcohol poisoning.

The following week, Braecen took a few hours out to talk to Xathia, Syphoc and Yzarc about a replacement master. Braecen extended an offer to undertake them all. An offer which Xathia turned down. Whilst she was still recovering in the medical centre, a message was sent to the Caliburnus Quaestor, requesting a visit. Thran came along, not at all clear on why the Acclivis Draco Guardian had requested his presence whilst still in the medical centre. Once there, the female immediately explained that she had been Selene's apprentice before her disappearance, and that Braecen had offered to take her on, but she had refused the offer since she did not believe for the Consul to be the best choice. It then became clear that Xathia wanted Thran to take her on as an apprentice. As soon as the Guardian was out of the medical centre, a transfer request was put in for the female to move across to House Caliburnus, fully uniting her with Fionn.

The Eighth Great Jedi War

The award ceremony for The Rite of Supremacy was a peaceful start, and supposedly a peaceful event, until the Vunzan Vong intervened, and triggered a retreat. Despite all the refreshing time off the female had spent doing things aside from her studies, she was still engulfed by her own thoughts. Thran had been spending increasing amounts of time buried under paperwork, thus leaving less and less time for his apprentice. After two and a half weeks of little progress, Xathia borrowed one of her Aedile's ships, and along with Kai flew herself back to Omwat, to settle her real debt with her father and family. At the last moment before the ship was due to leave, Fionn ran out to the ship and boarded it. The duties he had been doing as Roll master had worn him down, and this was his only chance to escape, even if it was only for a short while. The female smiled at the Jedi Hunter and told him to prepare for a few weeks of being chased by the Omwati authorities.

A Confrontation of Prediction

"We are not your family, we never had a seventh child. I do not know who you are."
"Yes you do. You just choose to pretend to not know."
"You saw through it all Nyx."
"It wasn't that hard mother."

―A cold conversation between Axelle and Xathia

As the female stepped off the ship for the second time within a few months in her home town, it was exactly as it had been last time. A glimpse of her older sister's head sent the Guardian into a furious sprint through the crowd as the lightsaber hilt kept them split for her. Once she caught up with her, the girl denied ever knowing her until Xathia proved she was her sister, the one family trademark that was found in all seven of the Quatremaine children, a scar of a lightsaber burn behind the left ear.

She was hustled along to the old home where Xathia had not even been near for nearing seven years. The shadow of her sister, lead to the shadow of her mother, who peered upon the girl's figure that seemed to tower over them. Axelle refused to accept that this was the seventh child, until Xathia's cold words and the showing of the burn made her admit that she had known all along. Axelle still refused to let the Guardian through to Chal. As soon as voices became raised, the older male came stumbling out with a bottle in his hand, loudly complaining that his peace was being disturbed. The training sabre of the girl was immediately lit and placed near to his throat, before she calmly spoke about settling their debt. Chal threw the girl away, and a vicious fight ensued, the house was damaged as extended Force usage meant heavy objects flew around like dust. Xathia left her childhood house on a better note then her arrival, for she knew that the debt was temporally settled.

Her presence on Omwat had been undetected by the authorities and the pair left without any problems. Landing back on Ptolomea, with questions to answer to Braecen, Phoenix and Thran.

Post War

Around a week after their return to Ptolomea, the new clan positions were announced. Impetus had been announced Ward of the South. The Roll masters had been scraped, House Dorimad Sol had been reopened, with Kosk and Syphoc as Quaestor and Aedile, RevengeX and Cuchulain were Quaestor and Aedile of Acclivis Draco, and Rasilvenaira and Yzarc were Quaestor and Aedile of Caliburnus. Thran told Xathia, that she was now his sole object of attention shortly before her promotion to Jedi Hunter was announced.

The September Proselyte (28 ABY)

Once it was told that Impetus had suffered heavy injuries at the end of the war, and couldn't temporarily forefill her role as Ward of the South there was a short hunt for the person that would temporarily take over. Xathia was selected to fulfill this, and continued to be a partner to Impetus and shares the workload with her, being the sole Wards to do this.

During a frustrating argument on a number of rising occasions with Fionn, the female broke her Krath War Blade clean into three pieces. Looking at the broken weapon and feeling the realisation of the past couple of months slowly sink in during the silence, the Omwati looked back to the male, and broke their relationship off, telling him that her feelings weren't what they should be. Fionn was reduced to a roaring rage as Xathia slipped off for a few days to the rum store.

After the Huntress had been missing for those few days, a fellow Battleteam member, Nokkon Wud, was sent to find the fiery female. Dragging her back into the main building, and listening to her drunken stupor, pricked something from deep within the male as he brought her back to soberness.

Krath's Tome

Although the threats to House, Clan and the DJB on a whole had died down for a short while, the Huntress was summoned to the library with the request to find a legend around a curse that would kill those who were exempt from the Force. Gathering together around half of the House, the Krath assisted Yzarc and Malaki, with the help of fellow Krath, Syphoc Rilkel to instruct the House towards the tome. The mission was aborted by the Quaestor after deciding that the members were required back to help with Reclamation and that nearly loosing two members of Souls of Darkness was too risky.

Reclamation and Promotion

Early into the preparations for Reclamation, Xathia was called forward by two members of the Souls of Darkness to follow them. Unaware of what they were after, the Nightmare Brigade member was told by the currently Quaestor Rasilvenaira, that she was to become the newest inductee into the Elite of Caliburnus as the Proselyte of Wisdom. This only irritated an already annoyed Dante, and degraded the relationship in the eyes of Xathia, as the female switched Battleteams. The Omwati soon proved to be pushed to the limits as the fight to reclaim the Cocytus System went under way. Fighting for Ptolomea brought out the girl's determination as she sunk into every battle possible, proving to everyone that being inducted into the Souls of Darkness was not a sign for Xathia to relax and slow down. The Krath was soon called away by her Master, greeting her with a task of capturing a Nebula Class Star Destroyer. Though the steal was dangerous, the female stole away with the lightsaber of a Jedi Knight, and successfully assisted in the ship being brought back to CSP.

Shortly after arriving back to Judecaa, the Huntress followed her master through to meet with the Consul, Phoenix, though the Omwati knew her master was not in a good mood, she knew better then to try and go against his word. After a much awaited long walk and talk about something tainted, the trio arrived at The Great Citadel of Clan Scholae Palatinae. The Quaestor of Xathia's House, Rasilvenaira, appeared out of the shadows as the Huntress stood before the Consul. The Lightsaber that the female had stolen from the Jedi Knight was proved as tainted evidence to Phoenix from her master, Timbal. As though some sort of trial, Xathia was instructed to move forward and bow before the Consul. After a long and dread filled wait, the Huntress was announced to have earned her saber and Knighthood. The female was also presented with a Dark Cross for her efforts.

Deadly Deceptions

Shortly afterwards, a new threat arose to House Caliburnus in the form of a Hutt. Rising to assist her Battleteam, Quaestor, Aedile and House, the female lived up to her status of living for conflict. Proving herself to be busy in what attacks she made, the Omwati received another Dark Cross for her efforts to rid Caliburnus of this threat.

Once the female was able to return to Judecca and meet with her master, she learnt that he had been appointed to the position of Ward of the West.

Clan Naga Sadow

Desperation

"What's a big bad Sith like you doing all by himself?"

―Xathia.

The Knight found herself waking up alone one morning, an empty space in the bed the morning her lover should have came back from the training with her former Master. Scrambling around the corridors once she was dressed, the Omwati failed to find Nokkon herself. The Aedile stumbled over Xathia and pulled her to the Quaestor's office, where Rasilvenaira was sat hunched over a desk, several comlinks out in front of her, and a half empty bottle of rum. When the female Kaeth looked up at the Krath, she could see the dark heavy circles etched into the Sith's face. Confirming that Nokkon had indeed seemingly vanished into thin air, meant the collapse of Xathia's world as she knew it, bringing back the floods of memories from when Selene had left, and all the dependency she had gained in the gang.

After being helped into an overstuffed chair, with a glass of rum in her hand, the female began to think of everything. The Aedile and Quaestor quietly looked on and waited for the Omwati to say something. Staring them both directly in the eyes, Xathia announced she was leaving the House and Clan. As she went to put her Serpent's Fang Dagger on the desk, Rasilvenaira's outstretched hand stopped the girl from doing so, a rare smile from the Quaestor and the words emitted from her pale mouth, informing her that the Krath would always be welcome back into Caliburnus should she choose to return, the Dagger being a signal of gratefulness from the Kaeth for all of the work she had done for both Caliburnus and Scholae Palatinae.

Leaving Ptolomea, the female stopped by Judecca, and advised the Clan Summit of her actions. Though not exactly pleased with the Omwati's reasoning, Phoenix and Lucien let the girl go.

Losing herself in her thoughts, the Krath wandered wherever her senses took her. Fighting against the Vong when the occasional one strayed into her path was far from uncommon, though most of the time Xathia stayed undetected by the monsters. Standing on a building top on Coruscant, the female looked down on a male figure who had been cornered by a group of the Vong. She could sense the Force deep within him, yet he had no saber nor did he attempt to use the Force. Leaping up and sending a blast throughout the wall, causing it to crumple and turn to rubble on top of the vile creatures. Landing lightly on top of the mess, the girl stole the male away with her to heal his wounds.

Fate

"Why are you following me?"

―Ylith Atema.

Taking the Sith into a shuttle so the female could heal his wounds and give them both some shelter from everything. She told him her name was Xathia and she had left Clan Scholae Palatinae in search of a new home. After Ylith was healed they would split roads again, yet she did not walk away, she followed him in the shadows, both wanting to know his true identity within the Brotherhood as she could sense him in the Force as a Sith, yet somehow he could not sense her.

She followed him for several days, often seeing him fighting off Vong and taking delight in the occassional wound he'd receive. While the other times he would simply take his sword and attack Vong himself, interesting enough, he did not use the Force itself nor his lightsaber, which intrigued her.

One day she followed him into an allyway, only to find herself cornered with him before her. He asked her why she followed him and she told him the truth, about her past within Clan Scholae Palatinae and the reason she left and how he had entrigued her. She took the blade of his sword in her hand and moved her hand over the sharp edge, cutting her hand, making a blood vow to stay at his side if he would share his past if he would guide her to Clan Naga Sadow, he walked away from her and she followed, startting a truce and small friendship between the two Dark Jedi.

They stayed together since then, she took over the role of his eyes and ears within the force almost naturally while he stayed who he was, slowly he opened his life to Xathia and she would slowly learn how he was and where he came from, and why he left it all. They grew closer, and even though they both were too stubborn to admit it, they were growing inseperable. When a Vong attack sneaked on them they fought hard, trying to keep them at bay, after Ylith killed most of the Vong off and sent the other ones back howling in pain or hurt enough for them to die anyway, Xathia screamed as a Vong threw her down, wanting to finish her off with a final stab from his Amphistaff. The Sith moved in front of her, taking the stab as his own and killed the Vong off before he could make any effort in finishing the Valheru off.

Ylith fell unconscious for a few hours only, sending the Krath Knight into a deep worry as she tended to his wounds and staying with him all the time. She smiled when he was awake and she could not hide her feelings for him any longer, and they kissed. Forging a strong bond that would forge a path within the jungle of destiny that would in the future take it's toll on both Xathia and Ylith.

Profile

Appearance:

Xathia stands at what is considered to be an average female human height of 165 centimetres, although she is dwarfed by members of many other species with a general appearance of a timid young and inexperienced girl. Her bright green eyes often seem to sparkle out from under her heavy blunt fringe, which is a mid-brown tone with a natural copper tint. Her hair reaches her waist, and is usually found to be braided because of its length. Xathia's body has often been described as voluptuous and curvy by other members, as her hips are broader then what is considered to be average, and the usual dark clothes she wears that follow her figure closely, pushing her breasts slightly against her chest. Her legs are shapely and well built and seem to fit with the rest of her body. Under Xathia's left eye, there is a scar that follows to the bottom of her cheek which was caused by her first serious battle with the chief of the street dwellers, it stands out due to the extreme paleness of her skin. Xathia usually wears her ACC clothes, consisting of a long sleeved grey t-shirt, a black vest and black trousers, as they do not restrict her movement, with a black belt on her waist where her weapons are kept.

Personality:

Xathia seems to have a split personality due to the voices that occupy her mind. On the one hand, she appears to be fearless, full of anger and bitterness, and a determination to batter anyone who dares to step into her path. Yet she is also young and inexperienced of much of life, and doubts and weaknesses frequently attack her. Her anger and bitterness is often vented during battles, training and any argument she enters. She can also appear to be a typical Krath in the ways that she is deceptive and manipulative, yet the Omwati also shows the signs of being a Sith.However, when her Master confronts her in a lesson, she will often back off and listen to his words, she is also eager to listen and learn the ways of those who are more experienced then her.

Forging a tight bond with Ylith on their journey, the female has learnt to trust someone, though the voice at the back of her head frequently nag her about this. Especially since Valnir, Selene and Nokkon had all disappeared on the girl.

Xathia has a fierce loyalty deep inside to those that she has decided are worthy of this. Though no one knows how she decides, nor if they are on it since the girl keeps it secret from everyone around her.

Hobbies, Penchants and Talents

Xathia has an unusual hobby of archery which she uses to train her eyesight to close precision. She also finds it relaxing as it allows for her mind to completely focus on one thing only instead of wandering to other topics. She also has found that her attention span is incredibly long compared to most other humans and can therefore learn a lot about something in one go, instead of having it broken down over three or four days which additionally allows for her skills to be tuned over extensive periods.

Most of Xathia's spare time is spent training in the ACC.

Xathia's diet usually consists of a majority of non-meat and non-fish products since when she was a street dweller there was no where for the meat and fish products to be cooked, thus her stomach cannot handle such products after so long without it which also allows for her to keep her weight under control during her training.

Notable possessions

Boots

Although many do not always regard clothing pieces as special, Xathia guards her footwear with her life. They have lasted through her journey from when she left her house at thirteen and therefore she sees them as sturdy and reliable. The battered leather boots come most of the way up her calves and have protected her legs from many types of extreme weather and beatings. Her mother gave them to her shortly before she left the house since she could no longer fit into her old shoes, and the boots have grown with her feet.

Litch Blade

Since Xathia frequently moved around with the street dwellers, trying to make a profit whilst surviving, she needed a weapon to guard herself if ever she was cornered and needed to escape drastically. The handle of the dagger was altered as soon as Xathia joined the Brotherhood to make it as comfortable as possible for her to use and has become Xathia's preferred weapon in battle due to her extensive training in it from the age of thirteen. Her original forename and given name, Nyx Xathia, are engraved near the handle to ensure that it can always been identified.

Kai and Dai'Lic

The first of Xathia's Protocol bots is Kai, who was created in the junkyards of Xathia's hometown. He has stayed faithfully with his mistress from the moment she left home, and guided her through the streets, acting as a shield and companion when she had left the street dwellers, although Kai is restricted to a selection of 40 languages including Omwati and Basic since the internal programming limits the bot to understanding more languages, and Kai also retains the training for piloting ships which Xathia holds no desire to do or learn to do so, putting her trust into Kai. The other Protocol bot is Dai'Lic who was created whilst Xathia was staying with Fionn as he completed a mission for Arcona in a town on Omwat. Dai'Lic speaks forty million languages and is programmed to withhold essential information such as places where Xathia has stored items and codes to get into places, as well as the ability to pilot.
