- ―Darth Plagueis
Countess Eludajae "Lynx" M'Nar is the wife and Mistress of Krath Epis Impetus M'Nar . She was a long term member of Clan Scholae Palatinae, earning the title of Dark Paladin, before recently transferring to Clan Plagueis. She had been a member of House Caliburnus serving both as Commander of battle team Souls of Darkness and Roll Master of House Caliburnus before she left the Clan. As well as serving in the Priesthood of Lore of Clan Scholae Palatinae.
Her history is one dynamic events, starting out as member of the street gang the Enclave, then becoming a contract killer for the Syndicate classified by New Republic Security as a terrorist, all before she walked the path of a Dark Jedi. She is incredibly physically strong for a woman, this coupled with her skills in the Force make her a very dangerous foe. She is sultry and beautiful using her body and good looks as much of a weapon as the saber at her hip.
Character History
In the Beginning
Her early Years
A young Eludajae M'Nar
As a teen-ager Eludajae was part of a typical gang in Nar Shaddaa. She was a member of the Enclave, a highly organized gang that was part of the Syndicate activities on the smugglers moon. She was into all sorts of gang related activities, robbery, drugs, slavery, invisible market goods, anything that would turn a credit. The Enclave was made up of three street gangs, brought together by a charismatic young man, named Abysmal. Chief amongst these gangs was the Red Haze. It was here at the tender age of 14 she was beat into the Red Haze after surviving the brutal ritual of being beat by her own gang members she was accepted as one of the Red Haze. By the time she was just 15 she was leading the Red Haze on various “business” for Abysmal. She had a head for tactics and she was a natural leader. She killed her first person, a man, when she was 16. Smugglers would bring in “product”, she was one of the few Abysmal would allow to pick up these “products”. One smuggler thought he could pull a fast one on her, no one really knows what he said, all witnesses on the docks say is she walked up to him smiled pulled out her small holdout blaster and shot him straight in the face. He was dead before he hit the ground. By all accounts she looked at her gang members and told them to take everything and throw the body over the ledge. Everyone knew it would fall for hours and be barely identifiable without DNA scans by the time it hit the bottom floors if the scavengers didn’t make it their dinner first.
Abysmal watch her grow into a beautiful young woman by 17 she was stunning a far cry from the little tomboy he beat into his gang at 14. The two started an on again off again romance. That is when the Bothan named Oberon spotted her and approached her to become a dancer in the Mile High Club, he told her that it was safer, and would protect her beauty much longer than being a Red Haze Enclave enforcer. For reasons known only to Abysmal he agreed, some say he love Eludajae and did it to remove her from the violence of his business. By the time she was 18 she was one of the senior dancers and a part of the floor security in Mile High. It was around this time that she met and fell in love with Anshara. Anshara was on “loan” to the Mile High from one of the Hutt crime lords. The two became for over a year completely inseparable. The love affair became something of an event on the normally dark and dangerous smugglers moon. Eludajae known for her violent temper, seemed to calm around Anshara, like somehow she centered the fiery lover. When they danced together at the Mile High Club, door fees were said to reach as high as 3000 credits standard to get into see their erotic and sensual dance together. Later Oberon the bothan owner of the club would recall it was the only time he ever saw Eludajae really laugh. Then one day right after Eludajae’s 19th birthday some say the very day after, she walked into the Mile High and Anshara was gone with only a short note of why. The Hutt crime lord had sold her and Anshara did not know where she was going, and the transaction was “confidential” and no one either would or could tell her where Anshara was. Either they wouldn’t or couldn’t tell her or from the bloodshed she caused for a month and a half after Anshara was taken no one gave her a single piece of information. Even when faced with this raging vixen they refused to cooperate, many died, and others were never the same. Finally, Abysmal intervened on her behalf and had the 50,000 credit reward placed on her by the Hutts removed. Some say he paid triple that to have it removed, but no one knows for sure. All that is certain, Eludajae reverted to her cold, calculated self without Anshara near.
The Darkness Rises
" They shall all drown in lakes of blood. Now they will know why they shiver in the dark. Now they will learn why they fear the night.
”"
— Thulsa Doom
The Syndicate Assassin
Anshara
Soon after the time Anshara disappeared Eludajae saved Oberon from three Syndicate enforcers. She was so violent about it, she tried to remove one’s eye with razor wire. The local Syndicate boss was so impressed he asked her if she wanted a job. She took the job on the condition that her club, girls and Oberon were outside of Syndicate and Hutt rule. Seeing that the idea of a neutral place to do business was more than a smart idea he agreed. By the time she was 22 she had forged the Mile High Club into the only neutral ground in her sector of the Vertical City. If you broke the peace in her establishment you had both the Syndicate and Hutts to worry about, if you survived her and her people long enough to make it out of the club. The Mile High Club had grown in prominence as well. Its name was known throughout Hutt Space and in some sections of the Outer Rim. It was not a “classy place” for high society want-a-be’s, and during this time she started her career as a Dominatrix in the more private section of the Mile High Club that its “higher paying members belonged to. She became a mistress of the whip and other tethered weapons, as well as skilled in various forms of torture. In her current life the inner rage that seemed to dominate her became more reifined. It was said that if someone knew that she was the Syndicate contractor coming for them they would sell body parts to pay their debt. Her violence and cold nature to her work was well known. She was so feared people actually risked incarceration by the authorities to escape her. She was known to take her time with her marks. Some took days to die. The New Republic authorities became aware of her activities when they were investigating the disappearance of a Senator. When they found him, seasoned officers were said to become ill. This prompted a major investigation that was halted only after 4 New Republic Security agents were found brutally murdered on Nar Shadda. With the Hutts and Syndicate protecting her as one of their prized assets she was virtually untouchable.
The Terrorist
Descent into Darknes w/o her Anshara
In 24 ABY Eludajae became mixed up in one of Abysmal's scams again but this one was about to become one of the most public terrorist acts in New Republic history. It would be the reason she received the threat level of medium which usually used to indicate threat levels from organizations not individuals. Yet she would become one of 100 beings in New Republic history to receive a medium threat level as an individual. To this day she is still on the ten most wanted list of New Republic Security. The idea was simple, or they thought, Abysmal’s organization suffered the loss of several key money makers to the Hutts in the last decade and Abysmal forced to resort to piracy, like his father. What happened next was going to make both of them infamous. They attacked a huge luxury star-liner the Stellar Queen; it was on its maiden voyage and its vaults would be full of the wealth of its elite passengers, which were the primary goal of the attack. However, two young Jedi pilots came to the Stellar Queen's aid, and they destroyed Abysmal's frigate that was boarding the star-liner. Forced by the Jedi's success, they took hostages. When the Jedi threatened to board and end the conflict five crew members of the Stellar Queen were spaced. This made the Jedi hesitate realizing that these two were capable of any atrocity to gain the upper hand. The Jedi were forced to back off. Starting what would become a five day standoff between NR authorities where they demanded an armed unregistered tramp freighter. When the NR negotiator asked that the elderly be released as a show of good faith, all of them were spaced. When they demanded a reason, Eludajae was reported to have said, "I released them as asked, it’s not my fault you were not fast enough to pick them up." This brutality stunned even the most jaded and tested of the NR authorities and Jedi. One of the holovids that was released from the sealed NRS file to one of the major holonews nets played this during the 5 day crisis. It clearly notes Eludajae’s mental state as being completely psychotic at the time. The following audio only clip was played on the holonnet…”Eludajae don’t kill all the hostages, we need some to get out of here. Eludajae don’t kill all the crew we need someone to fly this thing, Eludajae…nag nag…You know what Abysmal, if they don’t kill you I am.”
Brush with the Dark Side
Around 25 Eludajae was tracking a mark for the Syndicate when she met the mark in an alley way between buildings. This mark was armed and dangerous, or so she was led to believe, and rumored to be a seller in fake artifacts. This is exactly why he was marked for death. He sold a fake to Doba the Hutt and embarrassed the Syndicate connections that brought the two together for the transaction. She took the hit because she wanted to get in good with Doba, if anyone knew where Anshara was Doba would know. She killed the mark with her now personal method; she would smile at them using her beauty to get close, and then at point blank range would shoot them in the face with a hold out blaster. When the mark hit the ground a small triangular object fell to the ground naturally she went to pick it up, the moment she touched it she was thrown four feet into a wall and reduced to semi-consciousness. A dark robed figure came into view she was in and out of consciousness so she could not really see him or her. They picked up the object and walked over to her, stood there for a moment and mumbled something about her being still alive. Then they said something about, “we will be seeing you soon,” and as they turned they said something about being careful what you touch. For days after She had nightmares of her murdering friends, and had a strange language being screamed into her head, she had killed before, but this was not business it was something else, there was darkness to it. It almost drove her mad. She had to know why; finally she saw something on the Holonet about strange happenings out near the rim. The moment she saw it she knew, she knew that was where she had to go. She simply woke up the next day and left Nar Shaddaa. She made her way to that place on the rim of the galaxy, it was almost as if she was being called there, called to the Dark Brotherhood. It took her nearly six months for her to finally arrive.
The Growing Darkness
At age 26, she finally arrived at the Brotherhood's proving grounds and survived the initiation rites of the brotherhood. She was then sent to the Shadow Academy to learn why she was there, by midyear of her 26th year she graduated from the Shadow Academy as an Apprentice, soon after she was placed in the Crimson Vanguard, House Archanis of Taldryan, she advanced rapidly from Apprentice to Protector, all her teachers and those around her said she showed great promise. She was promoted to the rank of Acolyte and found herself with her clan at war, by the end of the war she had proven herself a Clanswoman of Taldryan, and promoted to Protector. The Grand Master himself awarded her two Seals of Pain for her efforts in the Great Jedi War.
Her stay in Clan Taldryan was tumultuous and fiery, she advanced through the ranking of the Brotherhood from Protector to Jedi Hunter faster than any other her teachers and leaders could remember. Such advancement is both looked upon with eyes of interest and scorn. She almost forgot that she was amongst Dark Jedi for a time with the fast friends she made, unaware that they were also potentially her greatest enemies. As with all adept individuals more hate you than adore you. Soon after taking command of the Battle Team Crimson Vanguard. Events began to unfold that would force her into flight from the Clan. Unaware of the jealously of her fellows she was tipped off that her time within the House and Clan was nearing an impasse she would not survive. Being a woman that takes matters into her own hands she contacted the Dark Council of the Brotherhood itself and reasoned with the Master at Arms for a transfer to the one place she knew she would not only excel but be welcomed. Clan Scholae Palatinae...Hoping to enter the House Acclivis Draco.
The Call of the Sith
Even the best of plans are not always what fate and the Force have in store for you. Eludajae found this to be true when she entered House Acclivis Draco, a primarily Krath house. Full of the Clan's most intelligent and scholarly members, there was a wealth of knowledge for her to learn from there. Perhaps she learned "too well", on one of her meditations she would experience a life altering event within the Force. She would come to understand that the Force not only binds all living things together, it does so across the flows of time as well as space. The Force simply is, and exists everywhere and every when. During her meditations she experienced a rare form of transference, a form of time travel as it were. She found herself locked in a struggle that would not happen for a hundred years; trapped there she was forced to play a role in the future which would affect the past. After what she thought was an unheard of two day long vision she found that vision was not just esoteric. She "returned" changed, she had Sith tattoos on her body, and the light saber she had used to attack her foes just before the vision ended was on the floor next to her. Uncertain of how to explain this to anyone, even her lover Impetus, she simply made arrangements to move into the Sith order, her true calling. She also moved into the clan's current Sith House Caliburnus soon after. This would prove the visions had a truth to them. Slowly she rose within Caliburnus first she would come into her Dark Knighthood within the Dark Brotherhood as a member of House Caliburnus. Then on the heels of this she would become Sith commander of Souls of Darkness the house’s Elite Battle teams, taking the title Proselyte of Shadows. Proving the dreams even more credible she was also inducted to the Order of the Serpent as an advisor to the Quaestor of the House, gaining the further title of Serpent's Fang. As with all things, things change and have strange turn abouts. After claiming a home with in the Clan and House, after some internal strife Eludajae found herself in a familar but unexcepted place...returning to House Acclivis Draco...Still Sith still holding to her path, with change within the Brotherhood, she would also take upon a path within the Order of the Sith, as the Brotherhood matured so to would her path within the sith. She walks the path of the Imperator and is of the second echelon; a Second Echelon Imperator within the Sith Order. Eludajae now pressed forward to achieve her goals within the Clan, loyal to a few individuals within the Clan, she embarks on a path of leadership or at least leading herself to the ends she desires. With war brewing on the horizon, the Dark Brotherhood gearing up for war, and the Clan Dominion in unrest, the future is unknown and in turmoil...just how a Sith loves the galaxy.
A Knights Tale
Jedi Hunter Eludajae M'Nar waited patiently in the hall before the Audience Chamber of Clan Scholae Palatinae. The massive doors framed by an ornately carved dragon; its tail extending from the floor on the left side and massive jaws resting upon the floor of the right. The doors themselves were made of a tender, rare wood from the planet of Judecca itself. Puzzling, however, was the absence of any door handle - the massive doors required the Force to open and close.
File:OfficerSithRed.gifEludajae's Lightsaber
At last the doors began to part and a familiar face was on the opposite side to meet the Human. Quaestor of Caliburnus, Human Sith Warrior, Rasilvenaira stood before the path to the dais of the Clan Summit. "Follow me." And with the slightest nod of her head, she indicated she should follow. She marched proudly through the gathered members of Scholae Palatinae.
Though many of the Journeymen took great care to hide their identities, the Elders and Leaders observed the ceremony with their cowls lowered and a glint of satisfaction in seeing another individual approach Knighthood. Amongst their ranks were Consuls Emeritus: Timbal and Vally Tamalar. Upon the other side of the path rested a host of current leaders, each in ceremonial robes: Rasilvenaira StormRaven, RevengeX Palpatine, Dakari, Thran Occasus, Yzarc Rilkel, and Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine. Before the Human Jedi Hunter, patient as she approached, were the Proconsul and Consul of the Clan.
Rasilvenaira performed a low bow, "Lords of Scholae Palatinae." Lucien and Phoenix made the ceremonial nod in tandem. "Today, I present a member of my house before you for elevation into the ranks of Dark Knights of Scholae Palatinae. She has learned all that can be taught to her, she must now go forward and learn what she may for herself."
Lucien stepped forward as the inductor of House Caliburnus. "Young Hunter, are you prepared for the hardships and tasks that shall be set before you as a Knight of this Clan?"
"I am, My Lord..."
The Proconsul turned to the dais and picked up a package of materials: components for a lightsaber. "Then go forth, construct your lightsaber and maintain the honor of Knighthood. For with this elevation you are inducted as a full member of the Dark Brotherhood and are tasked with maintaining your proactive status in furthering your House, Clan and Brotherhood."
It was now the Consul's turn to address the Clan, "From this day forward... Eludajae M'Nar, our Human warrior, is now anointed Sith Knight. And has earned the rite to carry a saber of her choosing."
The assembled Clan broke out into cheers of congratulation. "Drinks on Ludy!"
Making of a Sith Warrior
- "A warrior must be ever flowing; able to take any form they come into…a warrior must be like water."
- ―Bruce Lee
File:Eludajae4 Final2.jpgCountess Eludajae M'Nar,Sith Warrior
She learned at first that a warrior must be strong and unstoppable, to her credit she became strong, physically rivaling even some of the stronger males, her being female however; most of that strength lay in her back, hips and legs, opposite the male’s greater upper body strength. She used this knowledge to strength her resolve as well, become able to fight for long periods of time. Allowing her stronger opponents to think they were winning by her seemingly constant retreat and only testing their guard randomly. But this was a ruse, learned from her days as a street fighter on Nar Shaddaa. Using the knowledge of the environment to her advantage, making the heavier and bulkier males run after her. Then when they were winded and tired from missing and or being made to chase she struck not to cripple but to kill fast. Her slow mastery of Makashi, the style of direct attacks meant to kill your opponent was her natural form of study.
Lynx is an appropriate name for Eludajae as a Sith Warrior, having been once Krath in her start of her paths walked; she walked the path of the sage, scholar, and then found the way of the warrior to be her calling. Yet, in that short time as a scholar, a seeker of knowledge, she came to know things, understand things, and it is secrets that fascinate her still. It is this thirst for knowledge and power that makes her a very subtle but dangerous foe. She is prone to the Sith rashness at times, but when angered, truly angered, she becomes calm…almost serine in her actions. It’s when she becomes this calm serine focused warrior that she is a cold hearted, killer. As if dancing with a lover or frolicking with friend threw a wood lands her saber ignites and she whirls and dances her dance of death, killing without it seems care or discrimination however, her strikes are precise and controlled made to inflict the most mortal of wounds. Her rage a burning white hot forge deep within her being released in a deadly focused beam of pure aggression with one purpose, the death of her foe.
Seeing these things, the brotherhood has agreed…Eludajae “Lynx” M’Nar is a…Sith Warrior.
A Dark Paladin
" And so, The Paladins of Palpatine came into being. Few had fought galantly. Even fewer survived. For most, the war had ended. For the fearless heroes of the Sun, Sword, and Dragon, the real conflict had only just begun...”"
— Unknown
Oh the heels of being elected by her peers to the Senate of Clan Scholae Palatinae she was ordered to board a shuttle provided by the Emperor and the Grand Marshal, where she was met by Robin Hawk a fellow Dark Jedi also ordered to board the same shuttle. This shuttle arived at its destination and as they entered the secret location, the Emperor and The Grand Marshal performed a secert ritual known only to the Emperors and Grand Marshals of the Clan and their fellow Paladins of the Order. What transpired is known only to them and Eludajae will not speak of what happened, all that is known that after the ceremony Eludajae was changed forever. She seemed far more focused and far more dedicated to the Clan.
This honor is viewed by her personally as the greatest achievement she has achieved within the Clan and Brotherhood. Being recognized by her superiors as a role model and something to aspire to for all clan members is something she only dared to dream of achieving in the Clan. It served only to strength her resolve to never again move between the Clans, this Clan was her home in more than just a simple place to hang her hat.
After the destruction of Nar Shadda by the Vong in late 26 ABY just after she started her search for the Brotherhood, she was completely homeless and a refugee of the Vong aggression the galaxy was feeling at that time. Everything she knew good and bad had been completely wipped out in the Vong attack and later Vong formation of the Smugglers Moon. The Brotherhood truly became her home, but within the Brotherhood she found turmoil and deceit. Finally she found Clan Scholae Palatinae her new home and she has flurished beyond her's and others wildest dreams. With her acesension to Dark Paladin and the secret ceremony that resulted in that ascension she has become not just a loyal member of the clan but nearly a zealot of the Clan. Sith Warriorhood changed Eludajae, yes her elevation to Sith Warrior was the harbinger of her ascension with in the Clan, but Dark Paladinhood is the hallmark of her ascension.
Castle Lynx
After she was awarded her regalia of her Dark Paladinhood , the weapons ( to be shown at a later date) and her armor ( to be shown at a later date), which she now wears almost as often as her personal robes, at this point she is more likely to be seen in her armor. When she arived back in the capital of House Caliburus she underwent some secret negotiations with the current Quaestor of the House Sith Warrior Brent "Archangel" Ligur Victae. She was given permission to build her Paladin’s Castle on an adjacent hill just outside the Vanguard. Castle Lynx as it was dubbed by the Countess, became one of the new features of the landscape of Ptolomea. The Countess insisted it be more of a modern facility so the engineers and construction droids created the “Blue Bastion” as it has become called by the workers and droids building the castle. When done it will cover an area the size of 1/8 the Vanguard area itself, building and grounds together, it will be a statement of wealth and power. Rumors have it that beneath the soft rounded shape of the castle hides a stronghold with enough firepower to match any standard Imperial base. When asked to deny or confirm this Countess M’Nar had no comment. She merely stated that like all the M’Nar residences it will have adequate security like that of her other residences. When asked why Ptolomea for this newest of residencies, she smiled and said, “House Caliburnus is my home within the Clan, as much if not more than Judecca.”
Upon her leaving the Clan, in 30 ABY, Castle Lynx was abandoned on Ptolomea however, it still stands as a testament of her work within the clan to this day.
Dark Passions Revealed
- "When Hate become love
You're in the presence of a Miracle "
- ―Unknown
Impetus M'Nar, Property of Eludajae
After the demise of her late husband, Impetus sought comfort in Eludajae's arms. Their relationship blossomed while Impetus had been married into something greater than allies and friends, they had slowly become lovers. When Impetus returned from her ordeal on her home world, Eludajae was there for her. There love blossomed deeper still as Eludajae comforted her from her lose. Soon afterworld they openly declared their relationship as lovers. The most visible declaration of this is Impetus now wears a black collar with the words, "Property of Eludajae M'Nar" on her neck.
Soon the lover’s passion would create a small sensation within their Clan and House, Eludajae asked Impetus to marry her. The two agreed and before the Goddess (the Twi’lek traditional deity) the two were mated as spouse to the other. Their personal relationship become more public, their love affair slowly became one of the fieriest in the House and Clan. With Impetus being such a well respected Clan member and highly ranked within the brotherhood itself with Eludajae having her own sorted reputation, the two became an instant media smash. The media latched onto this love affair as one of the few things that came out of the Imperial Court of Scholae that normal people would truly understand.
The Baroness Eludajae and Duchess Impetus were married today at an undisclosed site however they were spotted on Zegama Beach one of the Independent Resort worlds shortly after. Impetus waved to this reporter and his camera crew, as the two sat on the beach. The Dark Lovers as the press is calling them have been followed since their love affair became public. It’s the raciest and exciting affair ever to come out of the Imperial Court. Channel Two will be airing the Biography of a Duchess, all about Lady Impetus the beautiful Twe’lik lover and wife to the dark-brooding Baroness Eludajae M’Nar.
The two young lovers have been catapulted into celebrity status by the everyday person in the Scholae Dominion. Being invited to everything from Holovid Entertainer parties, to the grand opening of the Club Imperial that caters to all the upper echelon of the Imperial Court and the Rich and Famous, speaking of the Rich and famous, we discovered the location of the Lovers manor, nestled in the hills of Judecca in the same location as the holovid superstar Rafiah Lang, these two live their lives when not at the Imperial Capital or off on some mysterious mission…Rumors amongst the jaded residents surrounding the M’Nar manor say that its staffed by 30 or more male and female staff that are required to perform their duties in the buff. However, we could not get any confirmation of this claim or get an invitation to enter the grounds, which are guarded by armed guards, cyber enhanced dogs and an unknown Bird of Prey, believed to have come from Ryloth, that appears to have claimed the manor grounds as its territory. - Judecca Times.
Of Lynxes and Red Heads...
Asani Vosa, Eludajae's Fox
Ever since the death of Komari in the Great Jedi Wars, Asani had come to hold Eludajae dear. The two seemed to become close, for a long time she wore about her neck a collar that said 'Property of Eludajae'. It was something that only one other had as well. Their relationship was something of a mystery to the other Dark Jedi of the House and Clan. Over time Asani grew restless, something that Eludajae mistook for cries of attention and accretion of their relationship type. Instead, it had the opposite effect, there was something wrong, Asani had grown apathetic... so much so that it started to strike at Eludajae with near blade like attacks. It all came to a head three days before... now the house was in the middle of two Dark Jedi in the throes of passion and turmoil gone amock. All they could do was watch... as these two vixens dug their verbal nails in deep...
The fight of words was louder than any lightsaber fight, words meant to cut deeper than any blade came forth from Eludajae and Asani Vosa as they stood in the Calibanus hub, Eludajae had entered and singled out Asani and released her as one of hers, Asani at first devastated then both devastated and angered stood in tears not more than a foot from the other. Their words struck out like claws and blades. The others watched on in relative silence as they watched a rare thing, the death throes of a dying love affair between two Dark Jedi... They stood back nine paces and the lightsabers ignited, finally Asani dropped hers and ran out, some say she was afraid, others say she knew she could not win, still others with wiser minds know she ran out of pain and perhaps something even more powerful. Cethgus slowly walked over to the dropped lightsaber of Asani and bent down to pick it up. It slid across the floor out of his reach to Ludy’s hand. She eyed him for a moment then left the room.
Two days later Asani and Robin Hawk were talking in a small chamber they had set aside as no one uses it for them to come and just talk as women. Ludy entered, Asani tried successfully to remain strong as if nothing had happened, Ludy sat and did the same, she placed Asani’s Lightsaber on the table and it slid over to her, she casually picked it up and clipped it to her hip. Robin Hawk left and the two eyed each other. No one knows what transpired in that room, some say Ludy bent Asani to her will, and others say Asani somehow did the same. Perhaps it is closer to the truth that both wanted to be bent by the others will, perhaps love, even dark love, is stronger than any anger. Who knows, all that is certain Ludy and Asani walked out of the room hand in hand...Ludy was now Asani’s Lovely Lynx, and Asani was again Ludy’s pretty Red Head. Who knows really the ways of Lynx and Red Heads? Except…perhaps…them.
A Dark Star Rises
- "Mistress... I can't stay in this clan any longer... I need to leave, and I'd like to go to Plagueis."
"I was thinking the same thing pet... I just didn't know how to approach you with it."
- ―Impetus and Eludajae leave Scholae Palatinae
The Rise of a Rebellion brought some major changes in the life of Eludajae. The revolution was led and supported by the people of the Cocytus system and acting against Scholae Palatinae, or more particular the newly crowned Emperor. She would either fight against the people that loved and respected her or the against her own clan.
Impetus had served Scholae Palatinae with distinction and more loyal than she had ever been to any clan or house before this time. Yet there were those within the Clan, especially in the personification of the Clans Proconsul, whom she had little or no respect for. The current Emperor seemed to be the puppet thing of her enemy with in the clan and they had foolishly thrown Impetus, her wife, to the side after seven years of immaculate and loyal service. She held them in complete contempt.
Together they realised that there was only one option for them, move to another Clan. The choice became obvious when they spoke in private on the matter in their villa. The swiftly moved to remove themselves from a very bad situation the Clan that had become not just a refuge for them but a home, was dead to them now.

- ―Ariel, Chronicles of Riddock
Eludajae, standing at one of the Intel Outposts of Plagueis
Leaving Scholae Palatinae behind shook Impetus up a great deal and she found herself again in her mistress and wife's arms again looking for solace from the Clans betrayal to her.
Eludajae had never had a strong tie to any home, Nar Shadda taught her many things about how fast life can change, in an instant things that looked eternal...died. The simple fact that the Vong had destroyed Nar Shadda only months after she left looking for the Dark Brotherhood made her a refuge / survivor of a now dead world. Everything she had known had been taken from her this time permanently she had no past to revisit anyone she knew was dead, even her old enemies were gone. She tried to make a home with Impetus within Scholae Palatinae it had been rough, Eludajae is a strong personality and if she sensed weakness in you her Sith teachings immediately discounted you regardless of your Clan position or brotherhood rank. She found a strength in Impetus, willing to be hers, Impetus' strength lay in her power in the dark side and her knowing what she wanted. But now that strength was shaken and Eludajae would find that her love for Impetus over threw any of her Sith training and she comforted the only person in the galaxy that she trusted right now, her wife.
The M'Nars found a home on Morroth, the planet of House Satal Keto. They took an immediate week's leave to explore the area and get to know the new surroundings before calling in for active duty, within Satal Keto.
After a short time, Impetus began to cherish every moment she spent in Clan Plagueis. All regrets she had about leaving Scholae Palatinae faded away. As Impetus began to settle down in emotion and their new home, Eludajae also found she could now relax a little and start settling into her new home. With war upon the horizon, and possible vengeance against the Vong near, Eludajae has taken to her new Clan and House with a level of commitment that surprises some.
Why does she have this new level of commitment? No one really knows, possibly it's the way the Clan has come to Impetus and welcomed them both, or it could be the need for change within her that moving gave her a new perspective, but most feel its closer to the truth that the Great Jedi War, Unification is on the horizon, possible vengeance against not just the Vong, but a former clan is at hand.
The Ascendant Couple
The M'Nar Couple
As The M'Nar couple settles into the Clan, they have selected the City of Dicio to reside in on Kapsina the Capital world of the Clan. What attracted them to the city was its history and age, dating back to the Old Republic its elegant stone work and masonry were very attractive to the couple. They found a residency they could call there own with combining their resources they fixed up one of the larger houses on what would have been a beach front a thousand years ago. The M'Nar Estate was created to fall in line with the Ruling Councils attempt to revitalize the city, the Beautification Project now lists this estate as a restored historical site. The Couple have taken pains to restore their Estates to what it would have looked like at the height of the cities historical hay day. When visiting this Estate, the upper cadre of the Clan and the ruling class of the city are met by servants that introduce the Couple as the Duchess and Countess M'Nar. Hold overs from their stay in the Royal Clan Scholae however, the upper cadre and ruling classes humor the two woman, understanding that being highly respected amongst the Dark Jedi they have powers that they do not want directed at them.
New Roles
Plagueis, unlike the Royal clan, is a military dictatorship, within this Countess Eludajae M'Nar, is known as Captain M'Nar within the Intelligence branch of the service. Her official position is Adjutant to Brigadier General Impetus M'Nar also a member of the Intelligence Branch. As with everything within the Intelligence branch the exact nature of this assignment and duties are classified.
How to win a war
- "...one who excels at warfare seeks victory through the strategic configuration of power, not from reliance of men."
- ―Sun Tzu
File:Eludajae by eludajae2 wiki.jpgEludajae at War
War is upon us, the Ninth Great Jedi War is something of a different war for us; we are fighting not each other for land, spoils and honors, but for our home world back. The Vong defeated us and stole our symbol of pride, glory and power. Now we have waited, rebuilt and prepared. Having only seen the end of the last conflict Eludajae knows one thing. No Force skill, no one “super-weapon” or even elite group is going to win this next war. Only a unified military engagement as one army, one navy and one brotherhood will win. She knows all too well the near impossibility that is. Thus, over the course of waiting and learning and preparing, she has take up finding, reading and learning as much military science she can. Tactics, Strategies, battles, especially the records of the last war, in particular she has come to find she has keyed in on one Brotherhood member in particular. She knows nothing of his past if it is jaded, or glorified or even hated. All she does know is of the brotherhood she cannot find a more experienced general or admiral, especially one that knows The Shroud like he does. That man was and is Maxamillian von Oberst strange that she should key on someone outside the clan, but it’s painfully clear, through all that is written about and by him. There is absolute truth in his words’.
- "It is skill, not power, that wins wars. Learn all you want of your arcane craft, just remember that when the fighting starts you need a General at the head of your armies, not a Warlock."
- ―Oberst
The young Imperator can only find truth in that statement. So now she has chosen to follow this rather enigmatic and somewhat anti-social military genius as far as she can. Not that any of the “powers that be” would ever ask her. However, in her mind the only man that could lead a successful campaign against the Vong in The Shroud and on Antei is Field Marshal Oberst. Her hate of the Vong stems not just from the defeat of the Brotherhood the last time they met, but in late 26ABY just after she left Nar Shaddaa, they invaded and destroyed the Smugglers Moon. As depraved and full of debauchery it was, it was her home for all her childhood, adolescent and early adult life. They destroyed her only home and stole her new “home” within months of each other. She hates them with a vigor and steadfastness that only a spurred woman can. Her hate is so deep and cutting that she is unnaturally calm about this coming war, cold, calculated, and vicious. In this calm and deadly rage she has taken it upon herself to learn from the best. She accepted Consul’s Aide to learn to lead from Braecen her Consul. His lessons have taught her well, and when she sought the knowledge of war needed...after reading and following Field Marshal Oberst’s career.
It became clear, like him or hate him, he is the one military leader in the Brotherhood that can lead them to victory over her most hated of enemies, the Vong.
The Unification War & A Clan's Trial
- "A superbly crafted weapon cannot act of its own volition. It must be wielded"
- ―Miyamoto Musashi, Book Of Five Rings
Eludajae during the capture of soon to be clan ship NSD Ascendency
During the battle for Antei Eludajae became disenchanted with many of the aspects of this war. She seemed to be fighting for a planet she never really held any value of. She knew it was the “Home World” of the Star Chamber and the Brotherhood, but never realized the value of it. Let alone fighting for it. Over the weeks of the conflict it value and importance became more and more apparent. Every ruin she was sent into to take back, especially the Great Library held some sort of secret or piece of history to it. All the lore she was taught in the Shadow Academy when she first became a Karth began to come together, now as a Sith warrior she could appreciate what she was fighting for. The world that started out as the Grand Masters “problem” became something she held a stake in. Fighting in pitched battles, scouting out enemies for the main body of the Iron Army to attack all began to take hold within her. The Vong she hoped would be here to take vengeance on for destroying her home world, were dead or at least decimated. In the end while she resides on the Clans worlds and holds sway there Eludajae views Antei as her homeworld, something she lost to the Vong aggression she helped take back from enemies of her and the Brotherhood, even more than ever she finds herself bound to the brotherhood deeper than she ever wanted to be. She’s found her home, and she’s found her place in the galaxy and within it, the possibilities have become abundant.
After weeks of battles, skirmishes, near death experiences Eludajae came out of the war changed. War changes a person, things are always seen from a different angle or eye per say. The out ward changes fighting the enemy Jedi had increased her skill with a lightsaber she was master of the Makashi form now thanks to the war and her several battles with the enemy Jedi. Soon after the war a new enemy of the Clan became apparent, and insidious and shadowy enemy. A group behind the Tarnis Corporation had discovered the Clan Jedi and military machine, and wanted it for their own. Their mistake is trying to take something that was already someone else’s, Clan Plagueis and the Brotherhoods. When you try and take from a Dark Brotherhood Clan, you usually find yourself taken from.
Profile
Appearance
Eludajae
Eludajae's famous blue eyes
Stand a little under five foot seven, Eludajae is a well proportioned woman of dark beauty. Her dark hair and brilliant eye are well known through the Brotherhood, she sports several esthetically pleasing tattoos on her arms and body. She holds herself with an air of regalia and defiance inbred in her from her childhood to her training within the Order of the Sith.
Eludajae's Custom Robes
She is a tan skinned unlike so many that succumb to the dark side within them she resists the dark sides attempts to feed unpon her. Be it vanity or strength is a matter of opinion. She is a voluptuous woman of dignity and power which both attracts and repels people around her. The one thing that is noted about her is she is not afraid of her body, in fact she professes that she pefers to be nude over cloths at times.
Clothing
Pre-Unification War
Eludajae is as likely to be seen in a full dress, as she is to be seen in a uniform. Her normal dress is practical mixed with sensual. She is a sensual person, she wears clothing that accents her body.
For formal events she will wear the custom robes she was given by the Herald of the Brotherhood, Shikyo. These are again a mixture of practicality and sensuality.
Post Unification War
She has taken to wearing a black form fitting jumpsuit of leather and knee high black boots, along with a long flowing black duster like coat, she carries on her always her saber, and several knives and even at times a hold out blaster. Her demeanor after the war and after Shan Lon has been one of a dark beauty turned ravager. She still retains her beauty and her senusality but she leaves that to when she is home. In the field she is the hunter and you are her prey.
In Private
In her homes she is most likely to be found, nude. She uses clothing when she has to, never more than that. She is as comfortable sitting at her lovers side nude in their home together as she is in the formal robes.
For the every day she again mixes the sensual and practical.
Personality
- "I lead you follow."
- ―Elduajae
Impetus in an exotic dance for Eludajae
Elduajae has a domineering personality, some call it "larger than life," others have a less polite word for it. Either way Eludajae is an Imperator, one who leads. Her personality is one of unflinching standards, she is not one to be trifled with. Like all Sith those that annoy her usually end up on the business end of a saber.
Unlike her wife who hates strife and conflict, she can thrive in that environment with ease. Combat, struggle, and fighting for what you had is all she ever knew growing up and in the brotherhood till she met her wife Impetus.
Notable Possessions
You ask Eludajae what her most treasured possession is, and the word Impetus will escape her lips without hesitation. To Eludajae she's not just a wife, lover, she's the most treasured possession she has.
Another of the possessions that Eludajae has is her bike, unlike most its not a hover or speeder bike, but a ground bike. She loves to move along the streets and "ground level" areas of the cities she lives in. Part of the reasoning being the ground bike as being raised in Nar Shadda she never saw the ground til after she left her home world. She is literally fascinated by worlds who actually walk on the ground levels of their worlds.

Holdings
During her time in Scholae Eludajae developed several corporations within her wife Impetus, together they created a small grouping of corporations and other holdings that still today even with their move to Clan Plagueis they have maintained them. With the decree of the cureent Emperor of Scholae that she be allowed to keep her titles and holdings, She still maintains a Villa on Judecca in the Capital city near the Palace of the Scholae Emperors, also the passel of land she hold she has built the offices of her corporate headquarters, with the move to Plagueis her corporations headquarters technically have moved but those offices still function to this day.
Corporations:
M'Nar Holdings: The unbrella corporations that owes and operates the other smaller corporations of the two M'Nar's.
Impetus: Named after her wife, this corporation is a holovid production corporation, it produces the M'Nar Label Holovids, these Holovids span the gambit, from documentaries on wild life and history to adult movies.
I & E Music, LtD: This is the corporation created to produce and finance the music careers of Impetus and Eludajae M'nar, although fledgling currently, their two very different music styles are catching on in many of the Brotherhood and further systems.
Lynx Enterprises, Ltd.: This Corporation is a research and development corporation, its main focus is small arms, and armor for troops, and also has a bio-weapons division. Although small, it has become a reliable name in weapons R&D.
