"The Dark Side of the Force is nothing but the Light Side, but free of restraints. It is not evil, merely a philosophy more pure and powerful than that of the Jedi."
―Scept'ine, teaching the ways of the Sith in the abandoned Sith Academy on Ryloth


Scept'ine was a male Rutian twi'lek, who served as a Jedi Knight in the Clone wars, a head clan member on Ryloth, and a master in the abandoned Ryloth Academy

History

Life on Coruscant

Scep'ine was born into a middle class twi'lek family on Coruscant in 41 BBY. The family lived mid height in the Coruscant ecumenopolis, relatively close to the Jedi Temple. Jedi were common around the area, the large spires of the temple was in view of Scept'ine's family's apartment.

Despite their frequency, however, Scept'ine grew to fiour years old without seeing a jedi in person. He grew up fascinated by their abilities, reading every book he could understand to learn more about them, until the fateful day came. A female kel dor Jedi Knight, Sha Koon, caught only a glimpse of him, but could sense the a Force imprint in him. He was swiftly taken back to the temple before he had the chance to really from an attachment to his parents. In the Temple, Scept'ine took the position of Sha Koon's Padawan.

His progress as a padawan was slightly quicker than average for a Jedi of his age. His skills with a training lightsaber exceeded his knowledge of the Force. Sha Koon, the niece of legendary jedi Plo Koon, served as an excellent master for him.

The Clone Wars

By the time of the clone wars, Scept'ine was nineteen, and developed into the model Jedi, although he mainained the rank of Padawan, and still trained under Sha's excellent mastership. He was using a blue lightsaber, and was incredibly skilled in the forms of Soresu and Djem So, although his Force usage was still poor compared to his lightsaber combat

Both of them were called to Geonosis to participate in Mace Windu's strike team in both the Petranaki Arena and the main battle on the desert world of Geonosis.

Both Sha and Scept'ine survived the battle, never leaving each other's sight the whole time, taking at least 50 battle droids between them, and working together to destroy two spider droids and a Hailfire Droid.

Upon their return to Coruscant, Scept'ine was knighted, and Sha Koon named a Jedi Master. Later, Scept'ine accompanied Sha and a few other Jedi in the invesigation into the Confederacy's Cortosis mine on Bal'demnic. The task force and the CIS were driven away by the natives, and they returned to find a shocking revelation. The Republic had turned to an empire. Everyone in the temple had been slaughtered.

After this, Sha and Scept'ine when their seperate ways. Sha left to locate what remained of the Jedi, and bring them together, but her twi'lek apprentice valued his own life too much to fight against a Force that could exterminate a Jedi temple, and fled to the twi'lek home planet Ryloth in 19 BBY.

The Twi'leki Homeworld

Picking a Ryloth spaceport at random, he found himself in a small city name Falie'kaa. Although he knew Ryloth would have a lot of Twi'lek's, he was amazed at their numbers in Falie'kaa, where nearly everyone was a twi'lek. Another thins that interested him was the governmental system, the city was run by a five-man head clan, where if one member dies, the rest were sent to the brightlands, and a new clan was elected. The brightlands were the day side of Ryloth, where the sun shines eternal on a hot, blank desert with no night, and anyone sent there was certain to die.

Scept'ine lived in Falie'kaa for ten years before one head clan member died. He had become quite a part of the city by re-telling stories of his time as a Jedi Knight, and the massacre on Coruscant. He entered himself for the election of the new head clan, and won the vote by a fair way. Scept'ine and the other four new leaders ruled peacefully over the city, until the empire learned that Sha Koon's niece was still alive and pert of the Falie'kaa Head Clan.

Reports of a man encased head to toe in Ebon armour began to spread like wildfire. Darth Vader knew of the Head Clan traditions of sending the rest to their death if one died, and sought out one of his four Council members. The head of finance was found in less than two standard days. Using the Force, he convinced him to follow him to an alley, alone. When no-one was looking, he was promptly choked to death by the Sith Lord. As he planned, Scept'ine was exiled to the the brightlands.

Exile

Although he could have easily killed the pilot of the shuttle and escaped alive, he had too much respect for the twi'leki traditions to even attempt an escape from the brightlands. However the tradition was the exile, the death was merely assumed. The Jedi Knight hadn't given up on Life yet. In his time as a Jedi, he had learnt of the location of a Sith Academy reported to have been buried in the brightlands. The pilot was foolish enough to drop him near it. Or so he thought.

Through the scorching heat, Scept'ine led the remaining three of his head clan towards where he thought the Sith Academy was. Two of them died in the journey, one of starvation, one was killed by a predator, a lylek. Although it drained his mental strength, Scept'ine was able to turn some of the sand into water to prevent dying from thrist. Exausted and drained, Scept'ine and the only remaining clan member Rovko'ine found the Sith Academy, the building dug into a large cavern in the side of a mountain. It seemes to have been abandonned for quite some time, perhaps millenia. The only thing in the way of food would be to hunt the animals in the desert.

Although the building had been empty for eons, however, the Secrets of the Dark Side still remained, and the lure of the Dark energy seduced Scept'ine into learning from the abandoned holocrons. He had become the Sith Apprentice of a master thousands of years old. He learnt the ways of Force Choke, and could conjure small sparks of the legendary power, Force Lightning.

After a day hunting, Rovko'ine returned with nothing to eat. Scept'ine's anger got the better of him, and he murdered Rovko'ine through Force Choke. He was left alone. His master had deserted him. His Race had deserted him. All that was left was his hatred and anger. He had become a true sith.
