General Information
Sith Warrior Malisane de Ath is a member of Clan Naga Sadow and currently holds the position of Aedile of House Ludo Kressh, and is a retired Knight First Class Envoy of the Society of Envoys.
He is a dark haired human of medium height and of even temperment and has a humourous but focused and proffessional attitude to the world around him. His only loyalties are to Clan Naga Sadow and House Ludo Kressh, and the Society of Envoys. His attitude is that colleagues and leaders come and go but the organisation must remain intact.
Despite several previous offers to join families he takes a view that being in a Clan and House is enough for him, and secretly disaproves of those who feel otherwise.
However he is prepared to help and support his fellow Clan members so long as their actions support that of the Clan and is ready to turn against them should they stray from that.
Before The Dark Brotherhood
The Early Years
Malisane was born in 10 BBY on the planet Kangaras, a largely unknown jungle world within several days travel of Orion, in Usharak Keep, the planets only structure.
His birth was the design of his father, "Darth" Severak, an old self proclaimed Sith Lord who wished to use his son as a sacrifice in a ritual he believed would gain him the ultimate power needed to overthrow the Emperor and his apprentice and gain him and his followers rule over the Empire.
Severak's plans were foiled when shortly after the birth the newborn Malisane was stolen by the medic officiating over the birth and taken in a stolen shuttle to Coruscant. Though the medic was hunted down and killed by a disciple of Severak, she first managed to leave the baby with Talos Var, a cantina owner who agreed to adopt the child and gave him the name Jagos.
With no idea of his legacy or his true fathers search for him, the newly named Jagos grew up as a happy child in the cantina with his adopted father and brother. He attended a local school and developed a great love for poety and writing, and won himself a place at a university to study futher.
However events took a different path and on the night before Jagos was due to leave, a thief broke into the cantina and accidentally started a fire which destroyed the cantina and killed Jagos' adopted family. The seventeen year old youth chased the thief caught up with him in an alleyway. Though the fight initially went in favour of the older and physically stronger thief, Jagos' latent force powers allowed him to slay the thief and gave the young man a clue to his eventual future.
Jagos put his past behind him, took the name Malisane and left Coruscant that night to seek his destiny.
The Adult Years
Malisane left Corsucant for good in 7 ABY and using the money taken from the thief, he made his way to Carida and volunteered as a recruit in the Imperial Army.
Through his training his natural abilities, enhanced by the force, were noted by his instructors and at the end of the first year he was transfered to join the officer cadets in training.
It was here he gained a great enthusiasm for strategy and combat techniques and passed with full honours. He was granted the rank of Lieutenant and was transfered off Carida shortly before Kyp Duron destroyed the planet, and placed in command of a covert operations platoon.
Malisane, still assuming his adopted name, enjoyed the next decade. First as a Lieutenant, then as Captain, he operated behind enemy lines, hunted pirates and vagabonds, and carried out acts of subversion and sabotage in the name of the Remnant. He was currently happier than he ever remembered and memories of his past began to fade.
Unfortunatley again fate rolled a dice and Malisane's life was upheaved once more. In 20 ABY he was sent to lead his platoon to investigate rumours of a suspected force user on a supposeably uninhabited planet. He found one.
Tierdonis, a former Sith Battlemaster of the Dark Brotherhood and now rogue attacked Malisane's platoon, wiping them out nearly to a man. The sole survivor was the Captain. Sensing the latent force ability in Malisane, Tierdonis offered him a simple choice, die by his saber or become his student. Malisane had little choice but to take the second option.
For the next few years, alone in their shelter, Tierdonis taught Malisane to both hone his skills in the force and perfect the arts of both armed and unarmed combat. Malisane was an enthusiastic student and learned much from the more experienced Sith. However at the end of the second year once more fate interfered with the young Sith's plans.
One night two men came to the planet hunting Tierdonis, Krath Archpriest Manji Keibatsu and his student Knight Macron Goura, two envoys sent to eliminate a former one of their number.
Tierdonis fought Manji and eventually was defeated. Malisane sought to escape and ended up in a struggle with Macron. He fought well but in the end was no match for the Sith Knight. However Macron was impressed by what Malisane had learnt and against his better judgement persuaded Manji to take the young man to join the Shadow Academy and Clan Naga Sadow. Malisane had finally found the Dark Brotherhood.
The Dark Brotherhood
The Begining Of His Career
After a short time in the Shadow Academy where his current understanding of the force was tested, Malisane gained the rank of Apprentice and was transfered to his new home, the planet Aeotheran, base of House Ludo Kressh, and was taken as a student to another Battlemaster, this time Xhedias Forkall, or Shimura Keibatsu as he to become, Rolemaster of Clan Naga Sadow.
He quickly moved through the initial ranks, Novice, Acolyte, Protector, and joined Sapphire Squadron under the Commander and House Envoy he had fought, Knight Macron Goura, where he was trained in the arts of piloting and fighter combat, and though not amongst the famous Squadrons greater pilots, his skills became at least acomplished. It was then after his somewhat chaotic involvement in the feud between his own House and Marka Ragnos he was promoted to Guardian then Jedi Hunter in quick succession. When the position of Macrons Assistant Envoy became available Malisane applied and was accepted, begining his involvement and loyalty to the mysterious Society of Envoys.
Shortly after this Malisane began his trials towards Knighthood, and during this an upheaval took place in the Clan. Battlelord Robert Daragon, Quaestor of Ludo Kressh and Clan Envoy of Naga Sadow retired and left the Clan for destinations unknown. Aedile Macron was chosen to replace him as Quaestor, and resigned as House Envoy, creating a number of vacancies. Malisane's Master, Shimura Keibatsu, became Macrons Aedile, Derev Niroth, former Commander of the Night Falcons, succeeded him as Rolemaster, and Jedi Hunter Malisane was suprised to be chosen as Clan Envoy, as was Siyavash Kaida who became House Envoy of Ludo Kressh. Along with Siyavash, and Nekura Manji Keibatsu, House Envoy of Marka Ragnos, Malisane set about improving the Envoy system of Clan Naga Sadow.
The next six months were an interesting time for the Clan Envoy. He completed his trials and built and wielded his light saber as Dark Jedi Knight Malisane de Ath, his master Shimura resigned as Aedile and left the Clan, to be replaced by Malisanes former Battleteam member Lucius, and Malisane, Siyavash and Manji worked hard greeting new members and devising ways of improving the Envoy system, and Malisane was awarded the Degree of Dark Maven for his efforts in helping new members. It was around this point in time that Lucius left the Clan and Krath Priest Sildrin Hastur became Aedile of Ludo Kressh, and the Clan Envoy and Aedile quickly former a close friendship.
Shortly after Headmaster Spears Tarantae resigned and Anshar, the Knight Commander of the Brotherhood, replaced him and left a vacancy. When the result was announced, House Envoy Siyavash Kaida was chosen to replace him leaving Malisane as Clan Envoy and without someone to look after Ludo Kressh. He chose recently returned Guardian Xayun Erinos to replace her. Anshar rewarded Malisane with the rank of Knight First Class Envoy for his efforts.
However Malisane had a feeling then his time as Clan Envoy was coming to an end and began to train Xayun as his replacement. The time came sooner than he expected, when Quaestor Macron resigned and Sildrin was chosen as the new Aedile. Quaestor Sildrin chose Malisane to be her first Aedile. Malisane resigned as Clan Envoy recommending Xayun replace him, and when Knight Commander Siyavash needed someone to serve as her Adjutant, Malisane accepted that role as well. With one foot in his House and the other in the Society of Envoys, the immediate future looked rosy for Malisane, however once more events took over and they were to leed Malisane to meet the last person he expected.
