For eons of dark worship to shadows and false gods, the Abyssal Tome was created on a relatively unknown planet; Nalasara Prime. There it was hidden until DJM Malachai sought it out to utilise its power for the destruction of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
Fate intervened and Arcona became aware of the antagonists' goals in this rather short story. They dispatched forces to thwart Malachai and to retrieve the Tome. From that moment on, with the research and practice performed by each and every Consul, the art of Shadowcrafting was born unto Arcona and passed on through generations. There each and every Arconan armed themselves with shadows.
As time passed and the arts died out, a new array of Force Powers was bestowed upon each of the clans by the Grand Master Muz Ashen and the structure of the clan based Force powers were revised.
Force Techniques
- "Light is limited;
- Darkness is infinite."

As The Great Ninth Jedi War came to a head, the Grand Master Muz Ashen bestowed upon each Clan the choice of their next intricate Clan Powers. These were the choices made and embraced by Arcona:
Force Wraith
- "Do you like my Wookiees? They make such wonderful slaves!"

Niles Ferriers Wraith
A quote made famous by former Emperors Eye; Merili. Her Wraiths were such that she had under her control an entire population of Wookies and kept them in line by sheer fear. Wraiths: swirling, transient beings created by the users image are monsters; if monsters can be thought to exist.
Force Wraith are made from the sheer power of the dark side and are therefore unaffected by any physical means. They may interact with the world around them at their choice but may only be attacked by the force, making them indomitable opponents.
First Tier (DJK): The user can create one Force Wraith. The Force Wraith may only be a maximum of the users form and at this level requires a few minutes of concentration to create. To command the Wraith the user must use verbal commands.
Second Tier (Equites): The user can create 3 Force Wraith. The Force Wraith must still be of equal sizing but this 'maximum volume' of each Force Wraith may be transfered, depending on the chosen form. At this level they require tens of seconds to create. The senses may be shared with the Wraith at the users discretion, although this can take a lot of concentration and can wear out the user quickly. The Wraith may be commanded with thought.
Third Tier (Elders): The user can create up to 5 Force Wraith. At this level the Wraith may be completely transfered to one to form rancor sized creatures. However, this would use up all 4 other Wraithes when using the 'maximum volume' of each Wraith and would limit capabilities. Creation time is a matter of seconds. The commands turn to control and the Wraith become almost like puppets to the user. The control is instantaneous, thorough and precise.
(All Force Wraiths have chosen forms that may not be changed. Please submit an email to your rollmaster with a brief name and description before useage.)
Blood Trail
- "This planet resonates with the dark side of the Force."

A Nightsister of Dathomir
This force technnique was developed by the Nightsisters of Dathomir, great huntresses and sorceress that stalked their enemies. With a natural knowledge of the Force they were formidable against any and all opponents.
This force technique was used by the Sisterhood as a form of keeping tabs on their targets (most likely to be slaves) so that if they escaped they could be found very easily. Another benefit was that once the marked one was being trailed, the mark could not be removed.
When this technique is used, whatever original colour of the users blood that is used in this technique will become a translucent grey when activiated on the target.
First Tier (DJK): Interntional distance. Can combo with Journeyman level sense force abilities. Requires standstill and complete concentration.
Second Tier (Equites): Planetary distance. Can combo with Equite level sense force abilities. Requires focus but less concentration.
Third Tier (Elders): Galaxy distance. Can combo with Elder level sense force abilities. Can be used with a thought and requires brief focus and concetration.
