Biography

"Brotherhood Dark Jedi give the Dark Council everything they own, including their firstborn child"

―Unknown Dark Jedi

Aleho Ruoxf mother was a Togruta Dark Jedi who fled the Emperor's Hammer with the rest of the Liberated Brotherhood during Exodus, her father remained loyal to the EHDB however. Leho was the first member of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood to be born on Antei.

With the Liberated Brotherhood in the infancy of its independence, the Dark Council (led by Dark Lord Firefox at the time) set out to claim resources from its members to aid in the difficult time of rebuilding. The Togruta infant was seen by a Eclectic Pedagogue as such and was separated from her mother (willingly or not, we will never know).

The newborn was enrolled into the new Shadow Academy on Lyspair, it is believed that the Headmaster at that time placed her in the Krath Order. Leho grew up in the Shadow Academy, from as early as she could remember the girl watched as Dark Jedi older then her trained in the ways of the Force and eventually take their Test of Lore to become full members of the Liberated Brotherhood. The young Togruta would get herself into a lot of mischief and when not learning some basic Force abilities would spend time exploring the campus. For the most part Aleho’s isolation within the Shadow Academy led to her having pretty much a carefree lifestyle. But all that was about to change and the biggest wakeup call was about to hit the little girl.

Arcanum

The Eighth Great Jedi War force the young Initiate to face the horror of the Yuuzhan Vong. The alien attackers frightened Aleho to a point she couldn’t move, and she vaguely remembers someone picking her up and carrying her onboard the Arcanum. For the first time in her life, the little Togruta was scared, and this was her true awakening to the Dark Side as her fear took her over. For weeks Leho would stay in her bunk curled in a ball, hardly eating, sleeping and simply staring into the abyss of space. However her savoir, her guiding light would become none other then the new Headmaster, Aabsdu di Plagia Dupar.

He helped her channel her fear into action, and for two years Aleho Ruoxf trained like she had never done before. Leho learned not to become a victim of her own fears and strive to become what her entire world asked of her. To became a Dark Jedi. The girl grew more confident, more sure of herself and her abilities. She saw it her destiny to become a Dark Jedi Knight.

At the age of ten, on the Anniversary of the Exodus, Aleho Ruoxf took her Test of Lore and earned the rank of Apprentice. It was after careful thought that Leho decided to join House Marka Ragnos in Clan Naga Sadow. She joined the Clan during the chaos of the Orian Uprising. This was the first test of her abilities. In fact she managed to impress the Quaestor (at that time) Battlemaster Ashura Isradia. Isradia sensed something inside the Togruta Apprentice: a desire to prove herself and to face her inner fears. Ashura saw a little of himself in her and took her on as his apprentice (which he hoped he’s have better luck a tutoring then most past students). However their bond seemed to grow past the “typical” Clan Master/Apprentice pairing; in a way Ashura became Leho’s father figure and their relationship become that of a Jedi Knight and his Padawan (or a Sith Master and his chosen apprentice).

Dark Jedi Training

Aleho was promoted to the rank of Novice a few days after becoming Ashura’s apprentice; the girl’s efforts during the uprising didn’t go unnoticed and her promotion was a result of it. For legal purposes within the Orian system, Leho was appointed a ward of the Dlarit Corporation. This was girl’s first lesson in deception; she had to let people believe she was a war orphan placed under the care of Alector Isradia by the Viceroy.

The little Togruta’s education was very similar to that of a normal child her age; however her subjects were more Sith orientated. Leho made that common mistake many of Ashura’s apprentices had done before. She first addressed him as “Master Isradia”, in which he had to tell her that their already was one Master Isradia, and there couldn’t be two. He told her to address him as “Master Ashura” or “Mister Isradia” if in public.

Leho was lucky that her Master saw her for what she was: a little girl on the path to becoming a Dark Jedi. She had always been afraid that her first Master would be mean and cruel, as that is how she had seen many of the teachers in the Shadow Academy treat most of the newcomers. Ashura found a balance to let Aleho explore her own potential in “play time”, but this had to be earned first. Her Master continued where girl left off with her Force training at the Academy, he also designed a curriculum to teach his Apprentice about emotions (love, hate, anger, ect), self-esteem, and social skills. Ruoxf was expected to act like a little lady in public.

The Krath Novice was also taught how to fence with vibo-rapiers (something which Aleho enjoyed but found hard work); she also would spend an hour a day sparing with her Master. Leho was taught Grappling while at the Shadow Academy, so she was already trained in one form of martial arts. However Ashura wanted her to learn something more difficult, to push the girl, so he began to train her in Hapan.

Simus Institute, Sadow Palace

Isradia wanted the best training possible for the girl and enrolled her as a student in the Simus Institute. Unfortunately she was underage to take part in many of the classes; however she was trained how to use a blaster, and she did enjoyed the classes taught by Xia Long. It wasn’t before all her hard work earned Leho the Acolyte rank. It was at this rank she was told to undergo the Lightsaber studies at the Shadow Academy.

Acolyte Ruoxf returned to the Arcanum and started attending classes taught by EP Braecen Kaeth. All the students had to use Training Lightsabers and Aleho being the youngest there was at a disadvantage. She was small compared to most of the other students; she didn’t have the strength needed to survive very long in a duel. Whenever she got overpowered by an another student get back up and try to use her agility to her advantage; to keep moving and make herself a harder target to hit. This unformed combat was designed to put students to the test. Leho passed the third circle of Form Zero, thus passing the Training Saber Test.

Aleho’s next challenge was the Antei Combat Centre, in which her Master informed her she needed to become a Neophyte. Ashura asked Tsainetomo Keibatsu to help train his Apprentice in the ACC. Both Ashura and Sai pressed Leho onwards day after day until the Prefect of the Sadow Palace believed she was ready to qualify. It was her bad fortune to face off against Kraval Novir in her qualification battle.

Ruoxf was faced against a far superior opponent; fear was flowing out of her, but with fear came the Dark Side. Leho used her training to keep moving. While she was armed with her Training Lightsaber, vibo-rapier and a blaster, Kraval was armed with a Amethyst Kukri and his Custom Lightsaber (which wasn’t in use during the battle). Kraval called the battle to end when Leho became too exhausted to continue, however she refused to yield (as she wasn’t going to let Ashura and Sai down). Aleho watched as he smiled and congratulated the girl on her fighting spirit.

The Togruta passed her qualification battle and not only earned Neophyte, but was also promoted to the rank of Protector. Her Master had a surprise for his pupil and took her to get one of the new Armory Lightsabers; the battle with the Yuuzhan Vong had resorted to allowing Journeymen access to primitive Lightsabers. Ashura told her that only at Dark Jedi Knight would she allow to wield a true Lightsaber; one she has built herself. Leho understood and picked a green bladed Armory Lightsaber to use for the time being.

Keeper of Ragnos

As her Master ascended to the position of Proconsul, Leho was shuffled between Tarthos and Sepros; Ashura new duties towards the Clan meant his Apprentice had to come to the New Sadow Palace to continue her training. However it wasn’t fair for her not to interact with those in her House. A system was worked out that Leho would spend half a week on Tarthos, and another half on Sepros.

As she began to spend more time in House Marka Ragnos, the little Dark Jedi learned of the religion, the Disciples of Ragnos, and the power of the Dark Doctrine of Dark Lord Marka Ragnos. Aleho became a Initiate of Ragnos, she choose to devote her time to the Keeper’s caste. It fascinated her that Keepers were part scientist, part archaeologist, part mystic, part spy, all wrapped into one. The little girl didn't understand the depth and complexity to the caste she picked.

Zaxen Dauketrenal, Warder of the Keeper’s caste, was charged by Ashura to look after his Apprentice whilst she was on Tarthos, and to keep her out of trouble. At first Leho didn’t like the idea of a babysitter, however after coming very close to death as a result of a failed attempt to solve a puzzle. Zaxen had pulled her out of harms way and helped her solve it. After that Aleho put her trust in the Jedi Hunter. The Protector asked her fellow Krath to educate her in the way of the Keeper's caste; this was her path to follow in Disciples of Ragnos. Zaxen secretly asked Ashura's permission to teach Ruoxf. The Battlemaster agreed and Aleho's induction into the Krath based religion was solidified.

Zaxen was later promoted to Dark Jedi Knight and became the Hand of Ragnos; this allowed Aleho to a closer look into the workings of the religion. She was like his shadow in some ways; the Knight inspired her to become a better Krath. Her Master was Sith, thus he didn’t understand Krath nature. This was something Ashura understood; he wanted Aleho to explore her own path.

What Aleho didn’t know was her Master was secretly setting her up to walk the One Path: a quasi-religious belief system that espouses to lead its adherents into apotheosis. Ashura Isradia was an adherent of this system, as was his father and most others of the Imperial House Isradia. Leho was too young to willingly set herself on this difficult path, thus it was up to her Master to unwillingly put her on it. He used the Disciples of Ragnos as a tool for this, and Zaxen as the instrument of his plans. In time Aleho would learn the truth and bound herself to the fate of Godhood, that day was still far away however.

Battle for Inos

Aleho grew closer to Zaxen; he became almost like a big brother figure to her. So when her Master left the Orian system with the Consul to see the Grand Master, it felt natural for Zaxen to take Ashura's place. Their bond only strengthened through the coming Clan civil war known as the Battle of Inos.

This was Leho's first real experience of war (apart from what she saw during the last Great Jedi War). Aleho was aboard the Harbinger with her DAC bodyguard as the tension between both Houses rose. It seemed a mysterious signal on one of the moons of Inos was cause of the tension. The young Dark Jedi was to young to fully understand the nature of it all. She was not cynical as most Dark Jedi had become; not yet at least. What interested the girl was instead of having the two Houses go to war with each other, a solution to end the conflict was brought up by Zaxen. Arrangements were made to meet up with Ludo Kressh members who agreed with Zaxen's line of thinking and bring peace and stability to the clan once more.

Leho, Zaxen, Zaroth and Jade set off in the Storm Crow. The Togruta has become familiar with Zaxen's Vardorian scout ship as she had flown co-pilot with the ships owners a few days before in a Search and Rescue operation. It was on one of Inos frozen moons where the Marka Ragnos members met Macron, Tsainetomo, Xander and Cuyir. Manji, a Marka Ragnos Equite was also present. All agreed to stand together as members of the clan; a unified force.

The plan was two fold: one group would meet with Derev and talk sense into him, while the other would see the Clan Overlord to get him to stop the conflict. However Tsainetomo's duplicity came to light. While Jade, Zaxen and Manji taken Xander and Cuyir as insurance. Tsainetomo and Macron took Aleho as their insurance. In fact the two Ludo Kressh Equites had no intention of going to the Overlord. There destination was the crash site. The time of Dark Jedi Ruoxf's trial by combat was finally at had, as she joined the two Equites to take on her own House forces. It wasn't like she had much of a choice. Adrenaline coursed through her body. Fear. Aggression. Hate. A whole range of emotions pummeled as the power of the Dark Side ripped through her body. It was what she had been trained to do. Aleho heard her Master's voice ripple through her mind.

Aleho engaged in her first real battle.

"The strength of the dark side lies with the power of the individual. The Force comes from within. You must learn to draw on it yourself. I will not always be there to teach you." Quoted the Battlemaster before he left the Orian system. Leho ignited her green armoury lightsaber and allowed the Force to flow through her. For a moment fear threatened to overcome her but then she heard her Master's voice once more. “Fear is wise, Aleho, for it is a warning of danger. But you must control it, and never let it control you, or you will never have the power to act. Use your fear, do not let it use you.” Ashura had once told her.

The young Krath was able to control her fear and channeled it into something more positive; ambition. The thought of one day becoming a Dark Jedi Knight, of getting revenge on the monster who stole her homeworld. And through ambition her hatred boiled. She was barely aware of the cry that escaped her lips as her lightsaber pierced through a clone. The Dark Side prevailed.

The power to act had totally engulfed the young girl. The Protector dodged and the clone failed to hit his target. Without so much as a thought of doubt or regret Leho closed on the clone with enhanced speed, and within a blink of an eye the green humming blade of death was seen poking out of the clone's chest. He had been stabbed in the back. Ruoxf whole body was trembling after the battle had finished. She assisted Macron in fixing up Tsainetomo who had been wounded by a mine. Leho felt her connection to the Dark Side had deepened. She killed without mercy; she was truly a Dark Jedi now.

The three of them returned to the Harbinger, it had been revealed the entire conflict had been a "test". What a bloody mess it had become. However the weak had been purged. The crash site was false, but the distress signal was so realistic that the False Brotherhood had dispatched ships to rescue what they thought their own people. Aleho assisted Tsainetomo as the two of them took off to engage enemy forces in the Nachzerer. The Togruta demonstrated an apt ability of understanding the weird controls of Macron's ship. It wasn't long before the False Brotherhood forces left the system after learning of the false signal. The Battle of Inos was over. Aleho, like many of the Journeymen in both Houses, was promoted.

The Guardian had emerged from the conflict with blood on her hands. She had killed but didn't regret her actions. Ashura was indeed proud of his apprentice. Perhaps she was one step closer to walking the One Path. However her connection to the Dark Side was not yet strong enough for his liking. The Battlemaster knew what he had to do, and for Aleho it would mean a terrible betrayal of someone she trusted with her life.

Personality

Motivation	To prove herself and to face her inner fears; to become a Dark Jedi Knight
Personality	Confident, Persistent, Mischievous, Drama Queen
Nature	Carefree, Naive
Hatreds	Yuuzhan Vong

After learning just how dark the Galaxy can be, Aleho Ruoxf is determined to become a great Dark Jedi Knight. This has become her prime motivation, although she is still far too young to understand the complexities of the Dark Side. This is only something she can learn over time and with experience. It's her desire to prove herself and to face her inner fears that motivates Leho even more in her training.

Ruoxf is still young, and with youth comes her carefree and naïve nature, she has yet truly witnessed the Dark Side. Its destructive powers in the hands of an Elder. Leho has learned through anger and hate the Dark Side flows. For this reason the Yuuzhan Vong have become the focal point of all her hatred… they destroyed her life on Lyspair. In years to come Aleho could realize her path down the Dark Side started during the Eighth Great Jedi War.

Although Leho projects confidence and persistence in everything she does, the young girl can’t help but be a tad mischievous as she likes to do her own things, as well as turn something unimportant into a major deal; her greatest annoyance in her ability to blow things way out of proportion when ever the chance is given.

In combat, it is her speed and agility that gives Aleho an edge, as well as being small which allow her to go where other wouldn't be able to (i.e. a hole large enough for a child to fit through). Being small does have its disadvantages; opponents are bigger and overpower her in prolonged combat. At times it’s hard for her to keep a clear head when this situation arises, and her fight-or-flight response overpowers her (in which most cases she would most like turn and flee).
