Character History
The Fallen Legend
An ancient Zabrak Legend told in many different variants. The full and actual legend had been a source of mystery among the Zabrak people. One of the great pieces of Zabrak literature, it is highly debated who The 'Fallen' actually is. Due to the next to complete accuracy of the legend to Xen'Mordin's life, Xen has personally decided he is the fulfillment of the prophecy.
The prophecy itself is incomplete. The Zabrak Prophet and Seer, Crudhyr Dinzon, died before he finished the prophecy. Xen's life has been accurate up to the very end of the prophecy. What lies ahead of him, is now unknown to him. Due to its literary significance in the Zabrak race, many authors have written their own variants of the legend. Some end with joy for The 'Fallen', others depict him living in darkness forever. To read this legend please visit Xen'Mordin's Personal Website
The Birth
Xen'Mordin Vismorsus, was born as Kilan Khzon, on the planet of Iridonia. His father’s name was Donlan and his mother’s Xisya. At the time of his birth he had 3 siblings. Two brothers; Kiith age 10 and Clertan age 7. His sister was Sairia, age 4. The day of birth a huge, snake like solar flare, filled the sky. At the time of his birth, an other family, humans and close friends to the Khzons, had just had a baby girl, named Amanda. The sign of the flare kept Donlan, Kilan’s father, a little nervous for fear of it being an omen.
First Lost
In the year 10 ABY, at the age of five, Kilan was to be sent off to the newly reformed Jedi Academy. His family entire family had been force sensitive, but lacked any formal training. Going to the academy with Kilan was Amanda. The day they left was a big deal in the lives of the children. A huge party was held in honor of the event. The families of both children gathered for the event.
Around midday the Jedi from the Academy arrived. When he did he joined in the festivities for a short while. After a time the Jedi went on a long tirade of what being a Jedi means. As it was time to leave, the families gathered around and said their goodbyes. Everyone was happy for Kilan and Amanda to be leaving. Everyone but Kiith that is, who remained back in the shadows glaring at the two younger children.
The Jedi and the children made their way to the starport. At the time they arrived a large boom shook the sky. The Jedi stopped the speeder they where traveling in and looked back. A look of horror spread across his face. They quickly raced back to the now smoldering remains of Kilan’s house. The Jedi gave a quick search of the area and returned to the speeder, and took the children back to the starport. The two left with out being told what happened to their families.
A New Start
After being at the Jedi Training Academy for a short while, Kilan proved to be really talented in the force. His ability made other members of his age group jealous. He had become reclusive due to the events back on Iridonia. A small group of friends, formed along with Amanda, slowly brought Kilan back to a level of normality.
Months after joining the Academy, Kilan was wandering a dark hall where some jealous older students jumped him. Beaten and bruised, his friends found him unconscious. Kilan spent a long time recovering, but practiced his force abilities alone. Upon his return to classes, he impressed and frightened many of the other students in the class. From that he had proved his skill.
Love's Fury
At the age of sixteen, Kilan’s skill with the force had made him well known at the academy. He was far from the best, but his unique style and thought process had pushed him into the upper level of the students. What had made him better known was Amanda. It didn’t come as a surprise to anyone that they fell in love. Students knew the two would sneak into each other’s rooms at night and only whispered about it behind their backs. Teachers turned a blind eye to the two’s actions.
Over that time, Amanda had grown to be a beautiful young woman, catching the eye of many of the young men at the academy. Many where quite vocal about how they felt about her relationship with Kilan. Most argued that the interspecies relationship was wrong. Neither Kilan and Amanda paid any attention to the others ranting.
There was one student who was the most violent about the two, his name was Darion. One day Darion and a group of his friends cornered Amanda in a dark hallway of the academy. Kilan was going to meet her for breakfast, but on his way, noticed the group attempting to take advantage of her. Kilan snapped at the sight.
Shortly before Kilan’s age group was given training sabers to carry around and practice with. The sabers where designed to not be able to produce a blade with more power then to sting. Kilan ignited his and had a short duel with Darion. In his rage Kilan used the force, giving the blade more power. It sliced Darion at his waist. The blade gave out in the middle of the slice, but it didn’t matter, Darion was dead before he hit the floor.
The Jedi at the academy labeled the incident as a training accident. Kilan knew better however. He had felt the power of the darkside, and he feared what that power could do.
Love's Last Breath
Time passed, and both Kilan and Amanda gained the rank of Jedi Knight. Shortly after reaching Knighthood, the two where married in a small short ceremony. They moved around together, fulfilling tasks given by the counsel. Once such mission was to help settle a gang territory dispute on Nar Shaddaa. They settled it, but in the process had made some enemies. They decided to leave the planet in the middle of the night.
That night was stormy. Rain poured down as they raced to the spaceport. They avoided the main routes, and stuck to the back allies. Both felt something was wrong as they walked down a particularly dark ally. Halfway down the ally Kilan was shot back down to the entry point. A hooded figure stepped out of the shadows with a red lightsaber and proceeded to attack Amanda. Kilan quickly got to his feet and raced down to aid his love.
He didn’t make it in time. The hooded figure sliced open Amanda’s gut. The hooded figure vanished back into the shadows. Racked with pain Kilan held Amanda’s body close. She was dead.
Kilan quickly took care of the body, and wandered aimlessly around Nar Shaddaa. He couldn’t escape his pain. What he did next would terrify most force users. He forcibly cut off his connection with the force. Every strand was cut. To the Jedi Order, Kilan and Amanda both died on Nar Shaddaa. Kilan was no more. He was now Xen’Mordin. Xen wanted to run away from that planet. He got a position on a smuggler ship The Ruthless Eagle. A new life awaited him.
The Fall
A year passed. Xen had found a home upon ‘’The Ruthless Eagle’’. Well, as much as a home as could be possible. Life without the force was difficult at first. Xen found himself trying to call upon it only to find it wasn’t there. Now a year later, that had all stopped. He had gained the trust of the crew as well, becoming an inner cog of the working of the ship.
Being a smuggler ship, it occasionally landed in abandoned regions, looking for ancient artifacts. On this occasion, they landed in an open field outside of a temple like building. Xen was one of the leaders of the scouting party to look for artifacts inside. Once the ship touched down and Xen saw the building he had a strong feeling of longing. Longing to go in and wander the halls of the building.
It wasn’t long before the scouting party approached the great entrance to the temple. The very air seemed tainted, and the majority of the group wanted to go back. After a short discussion the group decided to go back, except for Xen who had a maddening hunger to continue. He slowly ventured into the temple.
He found himself in a giant open area in the middle of the entrance room. The many tiles that made up the floor designed a complex seal. Across the room sat an alter. Something about the alter called to Xen. He made his way over to it. As he did so he crossed the center of the seal on the floor. A large blast of energy and dark light surrounded him. Intense physical pain tore through his body for what seemed like eons. The painful memories of his past burnt across his mind. The pain of a thousand deaths suddenly stopped. Xen found him self lying on the floor shaking. He suddenly felt the enormous presence of the dark side in this temple. His connection with the force was restored.
He approached the alter, and found an ancient lightsaber hilt resting on it. It seemed like it was made just for him. A hooded figure stepped out of the shadows. The figure explained how he had been the one who had set up all the painful events in Xen’s past, from the death of his family to killing Amanda. Xen was ready to attack in his rage when another figure stepped out of the shadows. This one Xen recognized. It was Kiith his older brother, thought dead for all these years. The brothers engaged in a lightsaber duel where Xen easily cut down Kiith. The hooded figure told Xen his destiny was right on track and started to walk out. Before Xen could attack, the ancient lightsaber he held died, all power was gone.
Xen noticed how the hilt of the lightsaber had many sharp parts to it. He threw it at the back of the hooded figure. The hooded figure collapsed, dead. Xen picked up the blade. A life time of vengeance was fulfilled. He wasn’t sure what to do next. He returned to the ship and planned out his next course of action.
To Darkness
Xen didn’t leave his quarters on the ship for sometime after the incident at the temple. He felt a great call to a planet called Antei. He worked for sometime formulating a plan to get there. At this point Xen differed from most Zabrak in that he wasn’t tattooed. While he worked he slowly tattooed himself with a Sith pattern. No one disturbed him while he was in there, working. The crew of the ‘’The Ruthless Eagle’’ where afraid ever since the temple. The ship was slowly doing one of its smuggling runs when Xen knew what to do.
Xen gathered his closest friends on the ship and told them how he wanted to take control to get better cuts of money, and if they aided in this, they would be rewarded. They bought and helped out. They successfully stopped the ship in the dead of space. They where floating dead.
Xen quickly and quietly poisoned the rest of the crew. After a horrific several hours, the majority of the crew was dead, except for the ones Xen enlisted. They restored power and made their way to Antei. Once they arrived Xen slaughtered his friends who had helped them. He then made his way to the great hall of Dark Jedi Brotherhood, looking to join.
Clan Satal Keto
Upon joining the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, Xen was placed in Clan Satal Keto. He quickly felt at home there. Xen worked hard to get to the rank of Protector. Shortly After reaching this rank, the darkness in Xen’s mind gained total control. He ventured out alone for several months before returning.
At his return Xen was more eager then ever to advance in the brotherhood. He found a master, Warhunter. He was placed in a leadership position, Battle Team Leader of Eternal Plague. A position he held to the closing of Clan Satal Keto
Clan Plagueis
Clan Satal Keto closed and along with another clan, Exar Kun, formed Clan Plagueis. Xen was hopeful his new home would prove great, especially under the leadership of a former Grand Master, Chi Long. It wasn’t long before he was offered a position of aiding new members as House Envoy for House Satal Keto. He worked hard at this calling and in time was rewarded with a job promotion to Clan Envoy. He doubled his effort, and shortly found himself attained the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.
Xen felt great pride as he was finally able to wield his own lightsaber again. Still unable to fix the ancient blade he had found earlier, Xen built a simple lightsaber. A change was coming on the wind. A series of events followed, leading Xen to no longer feel at home in the clan. He decided to transfer to a new Clan.
Clan Scholae Palatinae
Xen’s new home was more then he had expected. With out much time to settle in, Xen found himself a Clan Envoy yet again. He was so busy with the task, he didn’t notice the whirlwind of turmoil that surrounded him. It was shocking to him as he found his house, Caliburnus, in a war with Dorimad Sol, another house of the same clan.
Xen fought bravely, establishing himself as an excellent warrior, and earned a title to prove it. He was promoted to Sith Warrior. Now an Equite, Xen constructed a new lightsaber with a red blade. Xen also slowly adapted to the animal love of the Clan, and has since developed a strong fascination with snakes, owning several which are located in his room. He had a Warbanner crafted as well, depicting a snake as well as a skull of his race.
With House Caliburnus’s victory in the feud. Xen gained a new role. He was now Aedile second in command of the house, working with Impetus the Quaestor. He served hard for well over nine months in the position. In this time, he helped build up the house to become much stronger then it was, and helped fight in the Sixth Great Jedi War. When all this came to an end, Xen was ready for some personal time, not burdened with the pains of responsibility to further himself more. He resigned from his position and went out to study more of the Dark side.
Xen found out his house was again in trouble, involved in another feud, now with House Acclivis Draco. He fought hard, and was astonished when neither side proved victorious. Xen was relieved his house didn’t lose, and then ventured out with several of the house to find the ancient lightsaber, Caliburnus.
During the hunt for the ancient blade, Xen deserted his Quaestor and friend Impetus and ventured off to aid Thran. Xen was caught while Thran was deep in the temple finding the lightsaber. Xen escaped into the jungle until Thran and Rasilvenaira gained control of the House.
Xen’s skills where again called for in a conflict with Scholae Palatinae’s long time rival, Arcona. CSP lost the event, but Xen was given a renewed focus. The Rite of Supremacy had come. Xen fought diligently helping place Scholae Palatinae in Second. It was a great achievement, and for his effort Xen was promoted to Sith Battlemaster.
