""Cutter" was just a dirty word for those who did the real work preparing the spice; but hell, it describes what we do"

―Arack to another Initiate on Lyspair

Arack Tavar is a young Apprentice with an exciting past as a spice dealer on Iego and later a Lieutenant in Cliffhold's Judicial Authority on the same planet. Tavar served honorably after turning his Crime Syndicate family into the Judicial Authority by becoming a Lieutenat in the CJA's elite unit, the Wraiths. Shortly before he found the Brotherhood, Arack orchestrated a daring double-cross that left him a hero on Iego but tormented and change inside. It was during this time that Arack discovered his latent Force-sensitivity and was subconsciously called to Antei, where he pledged loyalty to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and enrolled in the Shadow Academy.

Character History

Birth and Life Dealing Spice

Eight years after the fall of the Galactic Empire, two human Spice Dealers on the planet of Iego conceived a male child that they named Arack. From the time that Arack was ten, he was placed in the finest academy on Iego, Drol Academy in the city of Cliffhold. Tavar attended till he was considered a legal adult according to the laws of Iego, which was at the age of 17.

At that age, he was forcibly entered into his family's business of dealing Spice as a Cutter, one who prepared the already-mined drug for sale and distribution. Through sheer force of will and as-of-yet undiscovered Force-sensitivity, Arack managed to stay clean of Spice and came to resent his family, going so far as to delay the production lines by claiming that there were impurities in the drug, especially glitterstim, the most popular variant.

For over a decade, Arack Tavar worked in his family's business, finally making it to the position of sector dealer and responsible for the entire Iego system's provision of the drug. It was this time that the Sector Dealer would start feeding information about his criminal parents to the Cliffhold Judicial Authority (CJA).

Switching Sides

In 29 ABY, betrayal wracked the Cliffhold Crime Syndicate when Arack's virtues finally came to light and twelve spice dens were raided by the Tactical Unit Wraith, an elite sect of the Cliffhold Judicial Branch. In six of the spice den's that the Wraith's took down was Sector Dealer Arack Tavar, who mercilessly opened fire against his own employees before moving onto the next den with the Tactical Unit not far behind him.

Within a matter of hours, the spice trade had been extinguished and every single member of the High Council of the Syndicate, including Tavar's parents, was under arrest...all save for the turncoat and now Cliffhold Judicial Authority Lieutenant Arack Tavar. Tavar was given a full-time place as a Strike Lieutenant in the Tactical Unit and stayed with them, training to become not only a ace manipulator but a hardened soldier, capable of taking down a target either with bladed weapons, hand-to-hand combat, or blaster rifles.

However, a year later, the Lieutenant came upon hidden records as he was sipping a brandy in his father's former mansion. These records revealed that over 25 kilograms of glitterstim spice were stored on a mobile Tibana gas platform on the mining planet of Bespin. Packing only his Wraith armor and weaponry, along with his Crime Syndicate identichip, Lieutenant Tavar left Iego, only to return once more in the near future.

The Double Cross

Through his connections as the Syndicate Lord's son, Arack Tavar was able to claim the 25 kilos and immediately devised an insane double-cross of both his former life as a Sector Dealer and his new life as a Tactical Unit officer. Within six months of coming into possession of the glitterstim, Arack had set up over two hundred various business deals, with both low-level dealers and well-connected mafioso's alike and the distribution of the glitterstim had begun.

By 31 ABY, Arack Tavar had made over 5 million credits in the spice trade, as well as closed down nearly 3/4's of his deals by calling in Tactical Unit Wraith, squashing the dealers that he had sold his glitterstim to. However, as the Wraith's, this time with Lieutenant Tavar in the lead, prepared to take down the last of the glitterstim deals on Taris (Arack had already cashed in), the buyer had wised up to Tavar's scheme and had a force the size of two Judicial Authority battalions waiting in the wings.

The Wraith's waged a terrible battle against the dealer's armada and over half of the original Wraith's died that day, causing the Lieutenant to feel terrible guilt, which was then replaced by a horrific rage, that caused Arack to charge out into the no-man's zone between the two combating forces, as battle was taking place in an abandoned warehouse, and decimate nearly a fourth of the armada singe handly, armed only with four grenades, a vibroblade, and Prax-Arms AXM 50 assault rifle.

Spurred on by their commanding officer's seemingly selfless charge, the remaining Wraith's joined Tavar alongside local police reinforcements from the Taris Civil Authority and finally took down the melting pot of mercenaries, bounty hunters, and other low lives that had made up the armada.

As the dust cleared, two Tactical Unit members found a drained and weary Lieutenant Arack Tavar and submerged him in a bacta tank in Taris' Civial Authority headquarters before sending him back to Iego.

For Better or Worse?

Once arriving on Iego, and after he had personally overseen the burials of his fellow Wraiths, Arack was hailed a hero and promoted to Captain within the Cliffhold Judicial Authority, but not everything was the same. His unexplainable rage that was demonstrated on Taris had left Tavar changed and subject to persistent whispers in his head telling him to find Antei and his destiny whenever he would sleep.

Finally, after months of being tormented by what he dubbed "The Whisper", Captain Tavar asked for a leave of absence from the Authority Grand Council, which was granted, and set off with his Wraith tactical armor, a small personal armory, passcodes for his now 5.8 million credit bank account and changes of clothes, all stored aboard a rented Lambda-class shuttle. With the preparations completed, Captain Arack Tavar set off for Antei, truly never to return to Iego or Cliffhold again.

Antei and Lyspair

Upon arriving at Antei, Arack was overwhelmed by the ever-present companion that was the Dark Side of the Force, and the former Tactical Officer willingly gave up everything he had brought with him, with the exception of his cred-cards and his tactical armor, which he was allowed to keep for training purposes.

After choosing to swear into the Obelisk Order, Tavar was sent to Lyspair, the home of the revered Dark Side learning institute, the Shadow Academy. Spending just about a week there, learning all about the Dark Side and its basic applications, as well as further training in blaster weapons and blades (with an introductory course in lightsabers). After his ten days at the Academy had concluded, Tavar was assigned to House Marka Ragnos of Clan Naga Sadow. Within an hour, a shuttle came to ferry the newly christened Apprentice to Tarthos, his House's capital.
