Clan Naga Sadow

Clan Naga Sadow began as a House created by Tron Dlarit (later known as Tron Sadow) in honor of the great Sith Lord Naga Sadow. It was formed from rogue members of the Dark Brotherhood, a large body of Dark Jedi then allied with the Imperial Remnant in the Minos Cluster. In time the House grew into a Clan and created three Houses of its own: House Ludo Kressh, House Marka Ragnos and House Primus Goluud.

Brief History

House Naga Sadow was formed in early 14 ABY by Tron Dlarit. It quickly transformed into Clan Naga Sadow, acquiring the three Houses of Ludo Kressh, Marka Ragnos and Primus Goluud, so named for two other great figures of Sith history and one of the great battles for which Naga Sadow is remembered.

During the fifth Great Jedi War against the thralls of the ancient Sith Lord Okemi one of the Clan's Houses, Primus Goluud, was almost destroyed. In the aftermath the leaders of the Clan were forced to acknowledge their losses and the members of House Primus Goluud were merged into the other two Houses.

Jointly with Clan Naga Sadow, Tron Sadow oversaw his family business, the Dlarit Corporation. In the years leading up to the Exodus the Dlarit Corporation began expanding, setting up a complex mining operation in the Orian system, which had previously been discovered by Trevarus Caerick. When Clan Naga Sadow split from the Imperial Remnant it made its way to Orian, establishing itself in the shadow of the Dlarit Corporation.

Government and Politics

Clan Naga Sadow

Clan Naga Sadow primarily operates in secret. It is led by Tron Sadow as its Overlord and his inner circle, the Sons of Sadow, however most of the day to day work is delegated to the Consul who is the de facto leader. Many are not even aware of the Overlord's presence or his true nature, the Consul serving as the public figurehead. The Consul is aided by his deputy, the Proconsul. The Clan is split into two Houses. These are each led by a Quaestor who is in turn assisted by an Aedile. Together they make up somewhere in the region of fifty to one-hundred Dark Jedi in service to the Overlord and his Sons of Sadow.

The Clan belongs to a larger underground movement known as the Dark Brotherhood. The Consul serves as the Overlord's voice on the Dark Council and is its official leader in the eyes of the Brotherhood's Grand Master. Though the Clan is largely independent it "serves" the Dark Council for mutual benefit, providing the Star Chamber with apprentices and in return gaining access to the Brotherhood's facilities on Antei.

Dlarit Corporation

The Dlarit Corporation is the public face of Clan Naga Sadow. The Clan itself is little more than a cult, servants and apprentices of the Overlord. To the galaxy at large it is the Dlarit Corporation, a successful mining guild, that runs the Orian system.

The Dlarit Corporation mimics much of the Clan. The Chief Executive Officer of the corporation is Tron Sadow. The the Governor General, the head of government for the Orian system, is usually the Consul. The position of Marshal Commander, chief of the Dlarit Corporation's Orian based security forces, is normally held by the Consul or his deputy. Many of the lesser positions within the security forces and throughout the local government infrastructure are also held by Clansmen, the Quaestors often holding station as the Prefects of the individual worlds.

Economy

Clan Naga Sadow itself does not have an economy at all. To the galaxy at large it does not exist. The Dlarit Corporation oversees the financial interests of the Clan in the Orian system. As an industrial organisation the corporation lives off the resources mined from Orian and some of the other interests owned by the CEO. It deals primarily in tibana gas harvested from the atmosphere of Amphor but also additional mines for various minerals spread throughout Orian.

Society and culture

The society and culture of Clan Naga Sadow has to be divided into three things, that of the Clan itself, the Dlarit Corporation, and the local inhabitants of the Orian system.

Clan Naga Sadow itself is a rich and diverse society of species from across the galaxy. It is tolerant for the most part, it cares about the skill and aptitude of its apprentice, not their origins; however, considering the Clan's many years associated with the Remnant, a certain degree of Imperial rooted attitudes is to be expected. Irrespective of its individual members personal views the Clan is in principle a body of Dark Jedi and firmly rooted in the dark side and Sith beliefs. The Clan is build on a principle of survival of the fittest and, while brothers, those too weak to keep up are left behind with little regret.

The Dlarit Corporation maintains formal control and ownership of the Clan's assets. Ships and facilities do not belong to Clan Naga Sadow, they belong to the Dlarit Corporation. The corporation has a little over ten million personnel stationed throughout the Orian system. There are several small scale mining facilities on the Ulyatu and Nuvenpa as well as tibana gas harvesting colonies on Amphor. The rest live on the main sites on Aeotheran and Sepros where the corporation maintains a number of farms to supply itself with food and other resources.

Aeotheran and Sepros are the only two planets in Orian to possess native sentient life. Tarthos has several distinct species of animals living in its forests but has long been devoid of intelligent life. The locals on Aeotheran and Sepros are a near-human species used to survival in the harsh undergrowth. Shut off from the light far beneath the canopies they are a pale race and have taken on an almost skeletal look. Most of these Seprosians are organised into primitive feudal tribes but some have advanced to make use of the land, a few even having assimilated some of the technology lost in the ancient Sith temples of Urias Orian. While not savage many of these tribes are extremely territorial and do not appreciate the presence of outsiders, however some have taken to their new neighbours and started to learn the language and have attempted to establish trade relationships, a few have even joined the Dlarit security forces.

The technological level of the local Seprosians is primitive at best. They may have some basic projective based weaponry and a few tribes have managed to perfect simple forms of transportation. It could at best be described as comparable to the merger of nature and technology one might find on a world such as Kashyyyk, however, unlike the Wookiees, the Seprosians have never developed space travel. There are a few small villages on Sepros but the harsh wildlife has made it impossible for the natives to sustain a city for long. Where brick and stone has been shaped into buildings the jungle has quickly retaken them, no doubt being the main reason for the Seprosians' nomadic lifestyle.

Military

Clan Naga Sadow itself has no more than a hundred Dark Jedi and their apprentices. The rest of their military and security assets are owned and controlled by the Dlarit Corporation into the Orian branch of its security forces. The security forces number somewhere in the low tens of thousands, a high figure perhaps but not when one considers the ten million colonists spread throughout the worlds of the Orian system that need protection and policing.

The Orian branch of the Dlarit Security Force are under the command of the Marshal Commander who serves as their Commander-in-Chief. Under the Marshal Commander are the Commodore of the naval forces and the Major General of the armed forces. They are in turn assisted by a number of captains and colonels and their respective subordinates. In all they form a small naval squadron and a standard sized corps, not a large force but far from a negligible either. The Victory-class Star Destroyer Covenant serves as the flagship of the system's forces.

The bulk of the military forces are taken from wherever the Dlarit Corporation can find willing personnel. They are a mix of species although the vast majority are human given the corporations Imperial origins. They have since taken on a number of Saraii and Seprosian natives, the Saraii being the natives of the planet Sif, the Clan's original homeworld before moving to the Orian system.

Astrography

Clan Naga Sadow is located in the Orian system not far from the rest of the Brotherhood's holdings. The system was meant to be abandoned when it was discovered by the Clan's scouts. In the years preceding the Split, the Orian system was first discovered by Trevarus Caerick on the Clan’s behalf.

Allies and Enemies

Throughout their history the clan has been aligned with several different Clans and Houses. Most notable are the past alliances with Clan Scholae Palatinae and Clan Tarentum. At one point in the history of House Marka Ragnos, they were allied with CSP's House Acclivis Draco.

Typical Clan Actions/Reactions

The Clan can be emotionally involved in a situation when one of it's own is threatened. The members of Clan Naga Sadow operate as a close-knit family and look out for one another. If threatened, they will respond violently and without remorse, they are a very passionate people.
