- "My name is Marduss, I have given myself to the study and creation of death, therefore I give my name to Murder."
- ―Marduss on his name
Marduss is a young Dark Jedi born on Mandalore. He considers himself a murderer, killing for the first time at the age of twelve.
Biography
Early Life
Born on Mandalore in 17 ABY to two currently unknown parents, the warrior known as Marduss orphaned in his native city of Keldabe. While to this day he still does not know his lineage, he has speculated that he is the biological sibling of a possible Jedi, but he is unsure if this is true. He was found by a Taung known as Kann-Katral who recognized his connection with the dark side of the force, adopted him, and raised him as his son. He gave Marduss what could be considered his birth name, Daemakk-Katral. While Kann was a mandalorian warrior, he never truly put his adopted son through training, but taught him swordsmanship, the basics of hand to hand combat, and encouraged him to hone his connection with the force. At the age of twelve, somewhat of a naïve child, Marduss came into a fight with a group of children who considered him weak and an embarrassment to the mandalorian society for his connection with the force and lack of warrior training. Outnumbered by the older and large boys, Marduss was beaten to an inch of his life. It was in his moment of near deth that he manifested his power, and in a moment of blind rage, killed his attackers without remorse with a potent but weak amount of force lightning. He had gone unconscious at the time, but when he awoke he saw the carnage he had wrought, and at that moment christened himself Marduss, the incarnation of murder.
A New Embodiment of Darkness
When Kann discovered Marduss's dead enemies, he decided it was time for him to pursue his Dark Side abilities elsewhere. Giving him what little information Kann had of the Dark Side, he tutored his adopted son in star ship combat and brought him to the Shadow Academy through an undisclosed contact. For years, Marduss had studied the Dark Side until he was the only student capable of surviving the Brotherhoods early trials, and was brought in for true training. He has since proved himself an able scholar and tactician, as well as a potent warrior with a yet untapped potential in the force.
Personality and Traits
Something of an ironic personality, Marduss is surprisingly laid back when he is dealing with many individuals and species, except for Hutt's, which he hates with every fiber of his being. He is polite and comedic when in a group or one on one conversation, but when crossed or thrown into battle, his demeanor changes completely, shutting out all but his anger, hate, lust for power, and drive to kill. When working in groups, however, he becomes obsessed with taking command of his peers and underlings. When the group is being commanded by a higher ranking warrior, he will take orders with an annoyed, but dutiful mindset. He will attempt to become as much of a leader as he can, and will destroy anyone who proves themselves inefficient or cowardly, gladly taking their position if he can. It is unclear what Marduss's goals are, but by his studies, apathetic characteristics, interests in Politics and science, it can be assumed whatever he is planning is diabolical.
Powers and Abilities
Lightsaber Combat
Marduss has been a swordsman since he could hold a bladed weapon, and while he has yet to utilize a basic, advanced, or master form, he takes his saber training with utmost seriousness. He idealizes the Vaapad style, and hopes to master it someday.
Swordsmanship
A skilled duelist for his age and background, until he earns an actual lightsaber, Marduss uses his blade to slice, stab, and eviscerate his enemies with extreme prejudice.
Force Powers
In battle, Marduss prefers to use Rage, Force Shock, and Terror on his enemies in order to harm them physically and mentally, taking control of the battlefield on any level he can. When in serious pain or badly injured, he will control himself and try to heal his wounds while fighting from a range before returning to melee combat.
Equipment
Weaponry
Marduss is currently without a lightsaber, in the mean time he uses a four foot long straight sword with a basket hand guard. The sword is made of aluminum and durasteel, Marduss constructed it at the age of thirteen. While he uses his sword as his primary weapon, he always has a belt of thermal detonators for when he needs grenades.
Apparel
Marduss generally wears a black flight suit or a dark colored robe when not in combat, however, he will wear a centimeter thick breastplate composed of durasteel when in combat.
