- "How in the Bull's name do you work this thing!?"
- ―Arack Tavar, speaking of a Citadel holo-map; circa 31 ABY
Arack Tavar, birth name of Mithraist, is a 20 year old Eldarian descended from the Line of Keadea, the Scarlett Empress. Born in 11 ABY to a nomadic and religious group known as the Ave Invictum, Arack was given to the Eldarian Rangers at the age of two, before their massive militaristic reform. It was then that the young boy was given the Basic name of Arack Tavar and was raised among the Dark Star Nomads before re-joining the Eldarian Rangers at age 18. Now, at the age of 20, Tavar has joined the First Clan that is Arcona and utilizies the tenets and skills taught to him as a Ranger in his pursuits as a Dark Jedi acolyte.
Character History
Descent from the Scarlett Line
The baby who would become Arack Tavar was born in 11 ABY during the Rotation of the Stag, to a group of religious fanatics known as the Ave Invictum. Knowing that their highly religious ways would not be the proper enviroment to raise a child, they gave him to a passing group of Eldarian Rangers (long before they were reorganized as DARTs). The Rangers travelled back to one of their encampments and handed the boy to the Dark Star Nomads, their founding Chapter in the Priests Caste.
The Dark Stars, while still nomads, were far more organized and prepared to raise a baby and so they did, teaching him lore and woodcraft, with swordplay and marksmanship as well as survival tactics. When the young Nomad turned 18, he was returned to the Eldarian Rangers as a Wayman, and promptly after witnessed the reorganization of the Rangers into the Deep Assault Recon Troopers.
All New
Much to Arack's dismay, during the reformation, he was split from his friends and mentors in the Eldarian Rangers and was originally to be assigned to the 3rd Brigade on Arconae Primus but during a visit to Selen to receive his Arcona Armed Forces clearance, he was discovered to be Force Sensitive by a 23 year old man named Jason Thor, who was a Captain in the AEF with Dark Jedi training.
In a whirl of motion, Arack was hustled off to the majestic and forbidding Citadel that topped the ringed city of Estle. He was assessed, studied and a full comprehensive assessment, based off of batteries of tests and physicals, presented the conclusion that the simple Wayman known as Arack Tavar was not so simple at all, but actually the most recent male descendant of the Scarlett Empress, Keadea. Within a 48 hour period, Arack was stuffed onto a Lambda-class shuttle, piloted by Captain Thor. The shuttle was set to travel to the VSDII Paladin.
More Than a Wayman
- "See you soon, Wayman! Assuming you make it that is..."
- ―Captain Jason Thor, AEF
The Victory-class Star Destroyer, christened the Paladin, was the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's answer to the siege that had befallen Lyspair during the Vong Incursion and later the Unifying War. Arack was dropped off by Captain Thor and was systematically enrolled in classes and added to the Brotherhood's roll of students. Tavar took an immediate like to historical classes and majored in the Histories of the Sith Empire, as well as Pre and Old Republic history, passing all with A's.
This was not to say that Tavar let himself go while studying on the mobile Academy, he still worked out rigorously to keep himself military-fit and his unique kukri was never seen off of his person except when explicitly forbidden. In 31 ABY, five months after Jason Thor left him at the Shadow Academy, the same man came to collect him.
The Professors and Docents had contacted the Clan Arcona Summit and decreed that Arack Tavar was ready to join the public ranks of the Brotherhood. Giving him the rank of Novice (skipping Apprentice all together due to his gung-ho exam taking and results), Arack accompanied Thor back to Selen and Estle City where his rank as a Wayman was compounded with his overall AAF rank of Cadet.
However, Arack arrived to a Arcona embroiled in a coup; the Lord Consul, Sashar Arconae, had apparently committed suicide and his vindictive and cruel predecessor and master, Mejas Doto, had taken the throne yet again. Arack was separated from Jason Thor due to the Captain having to report to his Heavy Infantry unit for orders, as the General Invasion Alarm had been sounded.
A confused and angry Arack made his way to the Arconan City, stumbling around and becoming more and more embarrased as he tried to cope with the abundance of complicated technology used; tech was something rejected by true Eldarian Rangers and never a subject taught in dept on the Paladin.
The then-Novice wandered in this exact manner until he finally found the temporary offices of the House Galeres Summit and encountered the most frightening person he had ever met. Typically, this person was none other than his Aedile....

Trivia
- Arack is currently the only Player-Character Keadean in Clan Arcona, a decision encouraged by Etah Idanian.
- Tavar, in-character, sees no use for the abundance of technology that serves even the most simplest purposes, a opinion picked up during his time as an Eldarian Ranger. Out-of-Character, Arack loves technology or else he wouldn't be here....
- Is in love with Baked Ziti as a main dish and key lime pie as dessert.
- Favorite song is currently Citizen/Soldier by 3 Doors Down.
