Cyrus was born in the slums of [[starwars:Hurom|Hurom]] on [[starwars:Thule|Thule]]. He never knew his father and his mother died shortly after giving birth, leaving him in the care of her sister. Thule was a forgotten world, having never managed to shake off its dark history, and few along the [[starwars:Hydian Way|Hydian Way]] were prepared to trade with it. The citizens of Hurom suffered because of the planet’s reputation, and Cyrus’s family were among the worst off.

It was [[20 ABY to 29 ABY|27 ABY]] and the [[starwars:Yuuzhan Vong War|Yuuzhan Vong War]] was in full swing, but Cyrus—along with most of Thule—barely noticed.

Vallen took him to the [[Orian system]], where he became a [[Clan Naga Sadow|disciple]] of the [[Clan Overlord (Clan Naga Sadow)|Lord]] [[Astronicus Aurelius Sadow]], to train in the ways of the [[starwars:Dark side|dark side]].
 
Cyrus found the Brotherhood fascinating. Growing up on Thule, he’d heard stories of the [[starwars:Sith Empire|ancient Sith]], the kind people told that kept children awake at night; however, as he got older he’d dismissed them as simple bedtime stories of bogeymen and make believe monsters. How wrong he was. The monsters were real, and he had joined them. The morality of it did not enter into his mind, the long years as a slave having robbed him of any childhood innocence, having thieved and extorted just to get by.

Biography

Early life

Cyrus was born in the slums of Hurom on Thule. He never knew his father and his mother died shortly after giving birth, leaving him in the care of her sister. Thule was a forgotten world, having never managed to shake off its dark history, and few along the Hydian Way were prepared to trade with it. The citizens of Hurom suffered because of the planet’s reputation, and Cyrus’s family were among the worst off. When he was still a youngling, his aunt was forced to sell him off to slave merchants, barely able to afford to feed herself, let alone her late sister's child as well.

The Brotherhood

It was 27 ABY and the Yuuzhan Vong War was in full swing, but Cyrus—along with most of Thule—barely noticed. Thule got little out of the New Republic, and the Republic got little out of Thule. He was 15 when he was discovered by Vallen'dere, a visiting envoy from the Brotherhood. He’d known he had ‘special’ talents since he was a child, but had never heard of the Force, let alone ever seen a Jedi. Vallen took him to the Orian system, where he became a disciple of the Lord Astronicus Aurelius Sadow, to train in the ways of the dark side.

Cyrus found the Brotherhood fascinating. Growing up on Thule, he’d heard stories of the ancient Sith, the kind people told that kept children awake at night; however, as he got older he’d dismissed them as simple bedtime stories of bogeymen and make believe monsters. How wrong he was. The monsters were real, and he had joined them. The morality of it did not enter into his mind, the long years as a slave having robbed him of any childhood innocence, having thieved and extorted just to get by. He found a home among the disciples of Sadow, and—in the Force—a weapon to serve his ends.

The unwanted apprentice

Cyrus did not know it, but he had already earned the attention of Trevarus Caerick and Darth Vexatus. When they heard from Vallen’dere, the envoy, that he’d been discovered on Thule, they approached him with inquisitive minds about the stories he had heard growing up. One story in particular interested them: the legend of Asael’s blade. Asael was said to have lived millennia ago and have wielded a demonic sword; the stories told how he had been a feared Sith warrior, until his own sword had turned against him.

Caerick wanted Cyrus remember more about Asael, so Marked him with the power of third sight, and begun teaching him how to stare into the Force to pluck out the information he needed. Early in 28 ABY, Vexatus took him back to Thule to track down the origins of the stories of Asael. By then he had begun to suspect the pair were delusional, trying to track down a fairy tale that—even if true—had been lost millennia ago. Nevertheless, he humoured their interest; grateful for the training he got out of what he was certain would prove to be a fruitless endeavour on their part.

However, it was not long after Caerick and Vexatus had returned from Kangaras with the scepter of Hafa Chun that they quickly lost interest in Cyrus and what he had to offer. He found his sessions with Caerick suddenly cut back; and Caerick and his favoured apprentice disappeared into the construction site at the Temple of the Void for days at a time. Come midyear, and the Battle of Telos, his training was completely stopped while his so-called "Master" focused on his own work.

Betrayed

Exodus Day, 29 ABY, Caerick and Vexatus betrayed the Brotherhood and fled with the Harbinger to Lehon, deep in the Unknown Regions. Things got worse when the Lord Sadow ordered a roundup of all known associates, arresting the likes of Cyrus, Vallen’dere, Krenth, and others; guilty until proven innocent; too much deception having been sown to take any chances. Everything had been a set up, and Cyrus felt used. As soon as Caerick and Vexatus had realised the scepter of Hafa Chun had belonged to Urias Orian, they’d dropped their search for Asael, and hung Cyrus out to dry.

Cyrus rotted in jail on Gamuslag for several months until a number of prisoners were granted a temporary reprieve to assist with clearing out a viral outbreak at Lor Zatean. In reality, he was being used again, this time as bait to lure out a vicious unidentified species of xenomorphs that had infected the population. The mission proved to be a catastrophe, with the entire resort having to be sterilised from orbit; but, working alongside Macron Goura, who had also been manipulated by the two traitors, Cyrus managed to establish his innocence; Goura being unable to sense any lingering taint of corruption from the renegade sorcerer.
