"Embrace the Darkness" - Mejas Doto, di Tenerous Arconae
Template:Krath charinfo
Mejas Doto is a solitary, hate filled figure who is as equally reveared throughout Clan Arcona as he is feared outside of the Dajorra system.
Character History
The Beginning
A supposed image of Mejas Doto's father.Born on an unknown planet in the Outer Rim 19 years before the Battle of Yavin (BBY), Mejas Doto was the son of two Zabrak’s; one a Bounty Hunter and the other a Mercenary. The couple were believed to be native to Iridonia but little to nothing is known about their existence. It has been suggested that Mejas was raised in the criminal underworld as an accomplice to his parents; some have implied that the child’s father must have been Force sensitive in order to begin Mejas’s training from an early age and helped nurture such a powerful Force user. However, there is no existing evidence to support either of these claims and Mejas Doto himself has never discussed his upbringing. It can only be presumed that the childhood of the Zabrak holds some explanation to his current character, as he is even more deeply brutal, aggressive and solitary than others of his species.
Induction into the Brotherhood
On Loki in the Phare system, House Marka Ragnos based their stronghold during the years of alliance with the Emperor’s Hammer. It was here that Mejas was sold by the Trandoshan mercenary Zassk. The Clan summit, in a bid to revitalise their numbers and find the future of the Dark Brotherhood, had provided a variety of mercenaries, Zassk being one of them, with the task of locating any Force sensitive users and bringing them to Loki for their “initial assessments”. No questions were asked by the contractor’s and the mercenaries couldn’t care either way. The story behind Mejas’s separation from his parents, to this date, is still unknown.
Upon arriving on Loki the stolen Zabrak was resolute, silent and controlled. He had no communication with his peers and when approached was so vicious in his assaults that soon nobody pressed Mejas for anything. During training he stood out amongst all others for his physical prowess, fighting skills and callous nature. However, his control of the Force was poor due to his inability to focus, remain patient and learn to harness his skills. This was almost his undoing as the Dark Jedi of Clan Naga Sadow only wanted the “students” who could proved themselves capable across all areas. Fortunately, the House Quaestor at the time, Trevarus Caerick reviewed the students prior to their selection for execution or Shadow Academy training. He over ruled the training master, commenting that “such primal hatred should never be dismissed so easily.”
And so, Mejas was afforded the opportunity to train at the Shadow Academy under Head Master Kumba, as long as he agreed to return to Marka Ragnos upon his appointment to the rank of Guardian. The young Zabrak agreed – not for the sake of compliance or through fear or respect, but because he awaited the day when he could return to Loki and exact his vengeance upon all those who felt they controlled his destiny.

When promoted to Krath Archpriest, Mejas Doto was provided many more oppertunities to excel in the Brotherhood. He was appointed Consul of, the now disbanded, Satal Keto, he was also appointed Praetor to Head Master Shups, howeverm, surpassing all of these oppertunities, was the Brotherhod's recognition and acceptance that Mejas Doto was now permitted the use of a dual lightsabre.
Having waited for this momentous day, the Zabrak begin the construction of one the most renowned sabres in Brotherhood history. Almost as fabled in Clan Arcona as Ulic Qel-Droma's own lightsabre, there are few in the Brotherhood, let alone Arcona, who have not heard the tales of Bloodfang. The design was inspired by Ulic's own lightsabre, but elongated, with the ability to be halved and used as dual sabres. The emmitter aesthetic is derived from the sharpened teeth of Mejas Doto. Completely constructed from lightweight alloys, with a balance for her user like few have managed to achieve - Bloodfang is a weapon equal in both beauty and destructive power. In the hands of her owner, she has slain many an adversary and not always in the most orthodox of manners. It is well known, that when possible, Mejas Doto prefers the use of the teeth like emmitters for laceration, puncture and evisceartion.

This was after a Great Jedi War when the Clan were awarded, among other ships, a Modified Lancer Class Frigate, which the, then-Consul, named "Bloodfang".

Titles and Possessions
Clan Title
Mejas Doto is the first Arconan to be awarded the Clan title, due to his work as Consul and longterm Clan member. After conflict with Emissary Tron Sadow, Mejas rebuked the format the Clan title would take and refused to adopt Arconae as his surname. Because of this, Arconan's may choose to use their title in the following format: Mejas Doto, di Tenebrous Arconae.
Shadow Mastery
Mejas Doto was the first Arconan to attain full understanding of the Abyssal Tome and from this he has reached the pinnacle that is Shadow Mastery. His complete dedication to the Ways of Shadowcrafting lead to his resignation as Consul of Clan Arcona and effective retiral as a member of the Dark Brotherhood. It is believed by many that Mejas felt that the only way of attaining the position as a Dark Prophet, was to combine his knowledge of the Dark Side with the very darkness of the shadows. At this point his corporeal existence wanes in and out of being. Arconan's have commented that the former Consul has become so heavily intertwined with the ethereal plane of the Shadows that he is believed to exist for longer and longer periods of time in this alternative plane. The Arconan official stance on Mejas's Shadpwcrafting powers state that he is a Shadow Master capable of two of the Abyssal Rites. These are Banishment and Summon the Abyss; however - it is well known that the Dark Jedi Master has surpasses such limitations and his ability to Shadow Walk and conduit between planes are examples of his continuing prowess and unmatched ability.
Tarentum Estate
Mejas Doto was granted an estate on the Tarentum planet of Yridia IV after a secret pact with former Consul Sith Bloodfyre. The exact details of this arangement are unknown to any others in the Brotherhood and Mejas has been afforded full immunity when using the estate on Yridia IV. The estate itself is not visibe from the exterior of the planet and no knowledge of what is contained in the estate, or what it is used for, is available.
Guardian of Arcona
Upon retiring from the office of Consul Mejas Doto remained ever watchful of his Clan. He is frequently called upon as an advisor to the summits and remains aware of the ebb and flow of Arcona's path. He has also stood against the summit and the Dark Council when the Clans interests are being overlooked by those who are afforded its charge. For this reason, Mejas Doto often refers to himself as the Guardian of Arcona.
