Character History
Churning Waters
Quejo was born on Glee Anselm in 22 BBY during the Clone Wars. The region in which he was born was Sabilon, the same region which the noteable Kit Fisto had been discovered by the Jedi Order. His young life was focussed more torwards torment and harassment, his only family had little time for him and other Nautiloids, mostly children, picked on him for being different. The adults ignoring such remarks saw it as harmless fun or figured that kids would be kids and would do it regardless of what they said. He was rather large and unlucky as a youngster, burdened if you will. Instead of getting to know him, his so-called friends would beat him and call him an outcast claiming that he was too clumsy to be of any use to their graceful species. Pushing him away instead of embracing him. They never saw his true potential, only his unqiue traits.
Quejo's father, Leeko, worked for the Government of Glee Anslem as an Environmental Specialist. He would study the surface storms, tides, biological anomalies et cetera....To him, work was everything which is why Quejo's mother Sarei had left him soon after giving birth. While the large Nautolan loved his father and his father loved him, Quejo resented his father's work ethic and figured Leeko wanted nothing to do with him. Feeling neglected and unloved, Quejo ran away from home as most youngsters would had they felt the same way. Roughly six years old, Quejo fled to an island on the surface, hoping to live alone, away from the comments and disgust of his peers.
While it took awhile for Leeko to realize that his only Son had gone missing, he was still distrought when he found out that no one had seen him for hours. Finding it difficult to gather the people and resources necessary for a search party, he left the solitude of his work station, in hopes of tracking Quejo down. He searched for days until a violent hurricane forced him to retreat back under the surface. The only thing left for him to do was wait or mourn.
Bunkered down under a series of trees, Quejo contemplated getting back in to the water. However, he was still young and the large waves would've shredded him against the rocks. Instead, he would try to ride it out on land. Minutes had passed and the storm began to intensify, Quejo realizing that his short life was probably about to end. Until he saw a figure working it's way through the jungle. Robes tore from it's body in the gusting winds and a pair of light green eyes seemed to glow from beneath a deep hood.
"Come young one!" The being shouted. "I wont cause you harm"
Somewhat reluctant, Quejo stood to his feet and ran to the outstretched arms of a Human. He had never seen a Human before but was pleased to see that this one was friendly. Before introductions were even made, Quejo was taken to an old bunker used during one of the Nautolan, Anselmi conflicts. It would house him for the night, perhaps even longer.
The Adoption
He The storm dissipated and Quejo had risen from a much needed sleep. Sitting on a stool-like chair in the corner was his rescuer, watching over him with great concern and amusement. Little did the Nautolan know, the man had been surveying him, studying him....reading him. He could feel the pain in the young one, he too had pain. He was a Jedi....A survivor of Order 66, forced to flee or die like his brothers. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Master Yoda had sent out a distress signal, sadly, he was one of the few to actually receive it. His name was Grant Felkor and he was a newly appointed Master whom didnt even have the luxury of being paired with a Padawan. Darth Sidious had ordered the massacre of his brethren before he had gotten the chance, all ties being severed within an instant.
He sought refuge on Glee Anslem, hoping that he wouldnt be hunted due to the Planets history of violent storms and civil wars. However, for what he had planned for the Nautolan, remaining on this harsh Planet's surface would be un-suitable. For now, he would try to get to know his new little friend. The two talked for quite some time. Grant had told the young boy that he was a Jedi and tried to explain his past, as well as the force, as best he could. Until he touched upon a sensitive subject. He asked the child if he had any family left. This, enraged Quejo, causing him to smash his fist in to the wall of the bunker, bloodying his knuckles, breaking skin. He had no family, his father had abandoned him, this was the story told. Believing it to be true, Felkor took Quejo in as his own, his first Padawan, his adopted Son. He felt that along with this boy, there was a chance he could rebuild the Order, to attempt to establish peace in the Galaxy once more.
While the anger of the boy worried Felkor, he also realized that it was a base emotion that all species' shared and experienced at atleast one point in their lives. However, Felkor would think nothing of it. Instead, he searched for a Planet that would both be suitable for the young Nautolan and himself. He decided to head for the swamps of Naboo.
Swamp Life
Shortly after arriving on Naboo, Felkor told Quejo that he was Force Sensitive. That, he too, could become a Jedi. The one to rebuild the Order, to bring peace and justice back to a torn Galaxy in distress. Never truly having a purpose in life, the young Nautolan was ecstatic. He absolutely loved the idea of becoming a Jedi like his new friend and soon to be mentor. However, his training would need to wait. While Grant showed him things here and there, he kept the darker aspects away from him. A boy with anger didnt need to learn about the luring power of the dark side. Not yet...For now he would only reveal basic principles and techniques to get him started down the long and difficult path. To remain secluded, they still needed to find refuge, Grant hoping that his Gungan friends would allow him and the boy to stay with them in Otoh Gunga.
After a brief discussion with the Boss of the City, Quejo and the Jedi were allowed to stay. While reluctant to allow this, the Boss owed Grant a favour for aiding him in the past. After receiving a place to stay, Felkor began to teach the young Quejo everything he knew about the Force. Training for the boy was very difficult but needed. Realizing that Quejo was both physically and spiritually strong, he developed training methods that catored specifically to his needs. Endurance exercises were performed under water, Quejo building his lung power and developing peak cardiovascular fitness early on. However, most of his strength building was performed on land due to the fact that things become much lighter in water. Mixed in with these conditioning routines, Grant would teach Quejo various Force techniques and skills that would come in handy for him throughout his life. Some of the more advanced techniques would include - reading the minds of sentients and creatures (increasing his ability to read pheromones), telepathic communication, breath control, trances for healing and calming the mind, and of course, lightsaber combat.
These techniques became second nature for the young learner. Despite what Quejo's father thought about him being a slow learner, he was truly quite the opposite. He couldnt be told how to do something, however, if he was shown, he would quickly catch on. For a few years he would be trained, his Master keeping a close eye on him through the hydrostatic force-field bubbles which made up the City. In total, five years had passed. Quejo was now turning eleven years old and was still learning. His everyday life consisted of fending off Muskeg Gungans with his Master, one in specific. The deranged Gungans name was Ents Suss and he was obsessed with technology. He even went as far as having two of his limbs removed so that they could be replaced with implants. He was not friendly, nor did he like Otoh Gunga or it's Government. In an attempt to wreak havoc on the City, Ents created two distress signals which were known to attract Opee Sea Killers and attract them they did.
In an attempt to save the City, Quejo ignored his Master's warning and swam out. He managed to destroy the emitters and lure the six fish in to deeper water, leading them down one of the many abyssal labyrinths. Coming to what would appear to be a dead end, he used his abilities and wits to cause a chain reaction of rock slides, initially trapping and killing the predators. After returning and being scolded by his Master for disobeying orders, he was told that Grant had arranged a meeting for the boy with one of the Paonga Masters as a reward. He would learn a new martial discipline in lieu of a lightsaber.
Creation of a Beast
By the age of sixteen, Quejo had already become a reknowned Paonga grappler. Already he was quite large, this, in turn making him both threatening and hard to overpower. His Master was thoroughly pleased with the speed in which he was advancing and maturing in combat and the force. It was now time to put them to the test. While they still needed to remain hidden, Grant decided that leaving Otoh Gunga would be a wise move. He hated to stay in one place for too long, fearing that he would somehow be tracked down by the Empire. This paranoia would lead the two to Coruscant. By now the Planet was under Imperial control, however, Grant figured that it would be the last place the Empire would look for a Jedi "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer" is the thought he had in mind. However, he couldnt of been more wrong.
They remained hidden for three more years. Quejo was now nineteen years old and a brutish yet sensitive being. He would often get in to trouble causing his Master to come down on him much like a father would a disobedient child. However, he was on his way to becoming a man so Felkor allowed him to make and attempt to fix his own mistakes. Learning from the experience. Going to a local junkdealer, Quejo and Felkor sought parts for their Ship. They were planning to move on once more, however, when a group of thugs tried mugging them, Quejo carelessly tossed them aside using the force. Unfortunately they were seen by a group of Stormtroopers. While Felkor was scolding his adopted Son and Padawan in public they gunned him down from behind.
A blood curdling roar erupted from within the Nautolan as he took up his Master's lightsaber and cut down the three Stormtroopers. Falling to his knees, Quejo became consumed by anger and lusted for revenge as he felt his Master's spirit become one with the force. Tossing the corpse of his Master on to his shoulder and grabbing the powercell without paying, he made his way to the Maverick, Felkor's personal shuttle. Making the reapirs, Quejo took command of the vessel and plotted a course for Naboo where he would give his Master a proper burial. After the ceremony he became lost. His only father figure had been murdered and his pain slowly began to turn in to rage.
He thought of all the times he had been bullied as a child on Glee Anselm, he thought about the anger and neglect which drove him from his home. He thought about the death of his father....But in the end, he thought about how good it felt to cut down the Stormtroopers that took his life. He thought about the surge of power which ran rampant throughout his body as he let the anger consume him. He would become a man of action, whether it meant doing the right thing or not. He would get his way. He wouldnt be pushed around anymore by anyone. The Galaxy would be his stomping grounds and his anger would be his fuel.
History Within A Brotherhood
An Unfamiliar System, Soon To Be Home...
- "Who are you, why am I here?"
- ―
- "The boss saved your life. You're sensitive kid."
- ―
- "Sensitive? I've killed people for calling me less"
- ―
- "Force-Sensitive..."
- ― Quejo and a member of the Taldryan Fleet
After being examined and released from the infirmary, Quejo met some of the crew. One of the first members he met was Quarmador, a Barabel who had little care for the Human race. Though, Quejo wasnt much for Alien races himself. It was an intense moment but one that had passed after a brief conversation. Upon getting dressed, Quejo was approached by a Protocol Droid and briefed on the current situation. Whether he wanted to or not, this Ship was bound for Lyspair, the Brotherhood currently at War. As the Ship made it's way to the Antei System, Drakai thought heavily on what he had just been told. He wasnt entirely sure what the Force was but he felt a heavy darkness and lingering power aboard the Vessel of Taldryan. There was something strange, yet familiar about these feelings. Nevertheless he was dropped off at the Shadow Academy where he would supposedly learn to harness the power of the Darkside.
As he entered the grand hall of the Academy he was met by a cloaked Woman who didnt give her name, rather, gave her position and rank. All that Quejo knew was that she was a Dark Jedi Knight and an Eclectic Pedagogue, one of the many Instructors of the Academy. His first step down the dark path would take place in the Khar Shian school where he would learn general skills that would aid him during his Brotherhood tenure. A quick learner, it wasnt long before he was moved out of Khar Shian and in to Deneba where he would learn various lore and philosophies pertaining to the Force. It was quite difficult at first, however, when he had gained a basic understanding of what the Force was, it was much easier for him to tap in to it. The Deneba Campus is where he had a vision of himself becoming one of the most reknowned Lightsaber duelists in the Brotherhood.
Passing the Onderon Campus rather quickly, Quejo would move on to what would become his favorite part of the Brotherhood. Combat..Karana was where he learned how to use more than just a Blaster. He learned the mechanics of Lightsabers, How to tune Crystals, and Force Techniques which would heighten his fighting skills and awareness on the field of battle. His Instructor was amazed by his potential and passed him without a second thought. Time had passed and he was progressing in his Studies nicely, nice enough for him to be noticed and brought before the Headmaster of the Academy, Spears Tarentae. Being dubbed worthy enough to be placed in a Clan, Quejo was taken by Shuttle to his new home, Kr'Tal, which was the System that housed the Vessel which had saved his life some time ago.
A Brotherhood Within A Brotherhood...
Upon reaching the Kr'Tal System, Drakai was brought before his Quaestor Shadow Taldrya, Leader of House Dinaari. It wasnt long before Quejo was used to help quell the uprising of "Infected Jedi" during the Fifth Great Jedi War. Quickly rising through the ranks, Drakai had proved himself, time and time again, earning the respect of his Consul. During his stay in Clan Taldryan, he was dubbed the "Cohor Praetoria Taldryae" on more than one occasion for his commendable skill and prowess on the field of battle.
He had made many friends and even enemies in Taldryan, however, friends were obsolete and he decided to stick by himself. Often remaining quiet until approached with a task. Sadly, it was only a short ammount of time before Quejo decided to leave Clan Taldryan in order to pursue a greater knowledge and understanding of the Dark Side.
Kir was enraged that Quejo left Clan Taldryan, marking him a traitor, banning him from the Clan that gave him so much. Of course the grudge would be later settled when Quejo explained his actions to his former Consul, shedding some light on the situation. After careful consideration, Quejo joined a new Clan soon after being confronted by a Zabrak of unholy power Mejas Doto. Drakai would make his new home Clan Arcona. Little did he know he would soon be making history and quite an impact within the Dajorra System.
A Legacy Is Born...
Quickly upon his arrival to Dajorra, Quejo was named a Flight Leader of Shadow Dragon, a Battleteam which was tasked with the protection of House Oriens Obscurum He would show his skills as a true leader, Shadow Dragon winning countless battles. His ability to lead and project his voice to the masses soon caught the attention of the newly appointed Quaestor of Oriens Obscurum, Syn Kaek. Kaek would later approach Drakai with Halcyon Rokir the Consul and discuss his vision and leadership abilities. The three spoke of the future of Clan Arcona and House Oriens Obscurum...Kaek soon after appointing the young Drakai his Aedile and successor.
For quite some time, Kaek would teach the young Drakai what it meant to be a Leader and what it meant to be a Quaestor within Arcona and the Brotherhood. It wasnt long before Quejo was deemed worthy of taking the reigns of Oriens Obscurum as it's Quaestor. Quejo would lead Oriens Obscurum with an Iron Fist, his vision expanding throughout Clan Arcona.
House Galeres soon became one of the Summit's main focusses and if it were to re-open it would need a Quaestor. Quejo, being the Leader he was, left Oriens Obscurum in the able hands of his Aedile Octavian and soon became the Quaestor of House Galeres with Gavin d'Tana being named his Aedile. Together they would work to re-establish Galeres' place in Clan Arcona, making it the most dominant House Arcona had seen in years. Project Foundation was in affect. Quejo and Gavin plotted to make Galeres the very Foundation of Clan Arcona, successfully bringing Soulfire back from the ashes and rebuilding the bases of the House. Quejo, creating the Blueprints of what would soon become it's main Structures.
Strategos, the new Consul of Arcona was pleased with Drakai's design and began construction at once, Quejo's abilities shining as he lead Galeres down the road to Victory for quite some time. Due to the fact that Quejo was held in high regard, he was soon dubbed the Sovereign Imperator of the Arconan Fleet.
Quejo continued to lead House Galeres through many trials and tribulations, some despising his Leadership techniques, others respecting them. Wanting to further himself and help Clan Arcona on a much larger scale, Quejo, now carrying the title di Tenebrous Arconae ascended to the position of Proconsul. Hatred and jealousy began to rear it's ugly head as he started to crack down on the Mutinous Sects that threatened his position. Being marked paranoid and dilusional he was slowly losing the respect of the people and left, cursing Arcona to the grave. He hated what Arcona had become and wished that it's so called 'Leader' would burn in the flames of their own ego...Nothing would change and he knew it..In the wake of his departure certain members left with him, knowing that what had happened to him was wrong.
Searching For Redemption In Satal Keto...
Hatred consumed Drakai as he left Clan Arcona, soon joining House Satal Keto of Clan Plagueis. It wasnt long before he was once again made a Leader...This time he became the Quaestor of Satal Keto, once again rebuilding a House from the ashes, restoring a crumbling foundation with a new, implementing a stronger system..
After resigning from Quaestor, he became the Battleteam Leader of Galthain, mentoring to the new members of the Clan. He fought hard to make Plagueis a Clan to be reckoned with but found little comfort in knowing that the decisions the Consul was making were wrong. He confronted the Consul at the time and was banned from the Clan for having a differing opinion. This in turn causing him to wander the Galaxy until seeking refuge in Clan Naga Sadow.
A Warrior Takes Control Of Marka Ragnos...
Soon after joining House Marka Ragnos Quejo was appointed the Quaestor position and learned a great many thing's. For one, his power had greatly been increased when the Consul Macron Goura Keibatsu taught him the way's of Sith Alchemy, Quejo quickly learning and Mastering the technique of Crystallography and Metallurgy. These skills would aid him in the War which was quickly approaching known as the Vong Invasion.
Soon after becoming Quaestor of Marka Ragnos, the Vong Invaders struck Antei. The Clan's were blind-sided as living machines ripped into the fleet of the Brotherhood. Quejo, leading his troops into battle killed many Vong, his war effort granting him the rank of Sith Warlord. Once retreating deeper into the Shroud, exhaustion set in and he stepped down from his position. Dark Jedi Master Shan Long once again taking command of the House.
Quejo, feeling as if his work was complete, slipped into self-exile before receiveing a message from one of his enemies, Zandro Savric Erinos It was a call for aid.
A Rogue Comes Home...
After being summoned by his now, former Enemy. Quejo once again sat at the helm of Legacy as he reluctantly returned to the Dajorra System. He was prepared to help Clan Arcona re-establish their place within the Brotherhood. For too long he sat back, watching as his Clan became ruined by bad decisions, crippled by the weak whom claimed to be "visionaries"
It is now he lurks in the Shadows, offering Council and advice to those who request it, impatiently waiting for his moment to shine once more.
Personal Profile
Crimson Fury
Much is unknown about the Grand Masters Royal Guard. Those who know nothing of the Guard refrain from even asking, not out of politeness....But out of fear. Soon after joining Clan Arcona, Quejo was approached by the Commander of the Guard himself. The Commander was known as Demosthenes and became very intrigued with Drakai's performance. Drakai would be inducted but not until undergoing a series of trials, both lethal and difficult.
Meeting within the Meditation Chamber of the Guard, Quejo was tasked with duelling a high ranking member of the task force. The fight ensued and after a hard fought contest, Quejo was defeated, left to die in a pool of his own blood. This of course was haulted as he was once again risen. This apparent death was a metaphor, for he would need to die in order to be born anew under the banner of the Grand Master. Krath Priests all gathered within the Chamber and began to clear the Xylers mind of things which could prove to be a hinderance later down the road.
The process was painful but he would endure. This would complete the second test. For if he were to endure now, his chances of enduring later would be far greater. With this he was initially taught how to completely dissipate his Force Signature...To walk as a Shadow unseen. An emotionless Assassin, bred to kill.
After the brainwashing process, Quejo was initiated. He was given his Inductee Armor and forced to recite the oath of the Guard. Countless wars would arise, including the war which would include an empowered Jac Cotelin and his Clone and a ruthless attack by Vong Invaders. After proving his worth to the Guard, Quejo finally ascended to the rank of Sentinel II where he would receive his new Armor, blue and durable, just like he was. However, once the new Grand Master was appointed, the Guard was no more.
No one knows what the Guard is doing or if they will ever again show their faces. But Grand Master Sarin will soon declare a new system, a system that will ensure the Royal Guards survival.

Velosian Needler
This Spear was hand crafted on the planet Concord Dawn and made for one purpose...Hunting. The Velosian Needler contains a long hollow shaft that is ribbed for better grip. To enhance agility and control with the weapon, the center is wrapped with a black leathery substance that is almost sticky to the touch. The blade of the Spear is rather long and extremely sharp, about the length of a short sword. Flowing from the shaft to the Spear-head is a series of small tubes resembling wires. These tubes pump a lethal dosage of Venom from the hollow shaft to the tip of the Spear upon activation. With practice, the wielder can actually limit the ammount of poison injected into the prey. The Venom can cause hallucinations and chronic pain which can hinder the performance of a variety of Sentients. On the blade itself is a series of tiny needle like teeth which actually houses the Venom once activated (hence the name). The Weapon itself can be broken down and slipped into a Sheathe for easier travel or storage.
