“Shadesworn” is the name given to the members of Clan Arcona by the denizens of the Dajorra System. The mundane population look to their Force-wielding Dark Jedi as protectors and demi-gods. They are called “Shadesworn” in reference to their undying loyalty to the Shadow Lord of Arcona.
Shadesworn Ranks
In the Arconan Armed Forces, the Shadesworn have their own designated ranks. Shadow Lord and Shadow Scion are the only ranks that require a position to be held. As such, they carry respective sovereignty over Arcona’s Forces.
Even at their lowest rank--Shadeling--a Shadesworn is to be addressed formally as “Sir” or “Madam” by mundane soldiers or officers out of respect. Initiates must first prove themselves to be worthy of recognition among the Armed Forces.
For all Shadesworn castes:
- Tasks and accolades such as recruitment, training a member to DJK, or working on a large project can also serve as stepping stones between castes.
- Shadesworn ranks are only given to active members of Clan Arcona. Upon return from rogue status, former ranks can be retained.
- Transfers will be handled as case by case situations.
Shadow Lords
The acting Consul of Clan Arcona.
Power, influence and death emanate from the Shadow Lords as though it is part of their very being. The leader who all Shadesworn are sworn to commands fear from all but the greatest Dark Lords in the galaxy. Nothing short of complete dominance will suffice for the Shadow Lord, every action and expression of willpower a testament to the lengths they will go to retain their power. Supreme Commander of the Arconan Armed Forces, the Shadow Lord engineers the victories that secure Arcona’s continued dominance.
