Template:Dark Crusade

The Dark Crusade was a massive series of skirmishes between the members of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and the followers of the One Sith as the two sides fought for control of the ancient Sith Worlds. The conflict did not truly begin until the Battles of Krayiss II and Nfolgai, but was set off by the actions of former Grand Master Zoraan, who attacked the Brotherhood in the events of the Horizons Plague. For more than a year, the two sides battled back-and-forth seeking domination and destruction. The Clans and Houses of the Brotherhood utilized all the forces at their command to decimate the Sith forces and compete against their rivals within the Brotherhood itself. After capturing a planet and repelling the One Sith, the Dark Council awarded stewardship of the planets do the unit they believed contributed most to the victory.

"Get off our ship..."
―Methyas, to Darth Necar after activating the thermal detonator

In the wake of former Grand Master Zoraan's death on Antei, the Super-class Star Destroyer Avenger II attempted to flee the Antei System before the Brotherhood could mount a counter-attack. However, without their master's guidance, the ship found it near-impossible to navigate the treacherous Shroud, which left the ship blind and vulnerable to attack.

The reigning Dark Lord, Muz Ashen, quickly dispatched teams of Dark Jedi from each unit of the Brotherhood to board the Avenger II, eliminate all opposition, and capture the vessel for the Dark Brotherhood. A total of eighteen teams were formed and sent, however, most played ancillary roles in the operation. The first team to board the ship played the largest role in its capture, fighting the remnants of Zoraan's Force-trained students

SSD Avenger II

The team, comprising of Kalia Pepoi, Atra Ventus, Araxis Farron, Archangel, and Methyas L'eonheart, began their assault in the Star Destroyer's hangar bay, where they encountered the the twin Dark Jedi codenamed Reaper and Frost. Unable to match their opponents with sheer strength, Araxis came up with a plan to lure the one called Frost in with an illusion. The gambit worked, and Frost ended up slaying his own twin brother. Consumed by rage, Frost attacked the five Jedi, threatening to overwhelm them with the sheer power of his pain and rage. However, that blind rage became his undoing, as the teamwork and Force meld of the Dark Jedi united to bring an end to Frost.

Though the first objective was cleared, the battle was far from over. The team continued moving forward, but were forced to battle their way through the ship's security deck where the encountered the Dark Adept, Dantella Novae and managed to combine their powers to place the Umbaran into stasis. Adept Novae because the first prisoner of war in the conflict between Dark Brotherhood and One Sith.

Finally arriving at the bridge, the team was shocked to witness a horrific scene as the entire crew of the command deck had been butchered before any Brotherhood troops arrived. The team was forced to face Darth Necar, Zoraan's apprentice, who had fallen in anguish over his master's death. A powerful Sith Lord in his own right, Necar proved to be a brutal opponent with command over the vicious dark side beasts, Terentatek. In the end, the only way to defeat the Sith Lord was for the team to vent the entire bridge into space. Methyas, alone, bought the rest of the team time to fleet. Utilizing a thermal detonate, Methyas manages to slay the Sith Lord before both of them were sucked out into the vacuum of space.

Phase I

Chapter I - Dawn of War

Further information: Krayiss II, Nfolgai


In 36 ABY, the Dark Brotherhood was beseiged my some unknown malevolent force. Sleeper cells hidden within the Brotherhood itself were activated, and began a silent, systematic assault on powerful and influential Dark Jedi. In the aftermath of the Horizon Plague, this unknown faction manipulated the disinfranchised Dark Jedi and turned them against their brethren. The infiltrations began. As more and more members turned against the Brotherhood, they provided a foothold for their new masters. In a matter of weeks, what was at first thought to be mere accidents, became a series of devastating attacks across the Brotherhood's dominion.

Library-temple of Krayiss II

The Dark Council was under seige and the Clans and Houses were being attacked by enemies from without and within. Finally, the Grand Master called a gathering of the various leaders and Elders who appeared before the Iron Throne as holographic projections. Orders were given and targets were identified and the Brotherhood was called to unite as one to go on the offensive and destroy the new order that had risen and attacked—the One Sith.[1]

Krayiss II

"You think you deserve to inherit the legacy of the Sith?!"
―Darth Malignous, spirit of the library-temple[src]

In response to the One Sith's attacks against both Dark Councillors and Brotherhood Elders, the Grand Master and Dark Council decided to strike back with "Operation Just Vengeance". Based on intelligence gathered by the Voice, Lord Pravus, a bounty was placed on the Sith Lady known as Tor Siva, who was said to be active on Krayiss II. Siva, an apprentice of Darth Sinagar, was said to be a deadly assassin and one of the Sith responsible for killing Brotherhood members. While on a mission to secure the ancient library-temple of Krayiss II, Dark Jedi Master Shadow Taldrya received word about the mission to eliminate Siva. With his partner, Dark Adept Benevolent Taldrya Whiner, the Dark Jedi lured Tor Siva away from the library-temple and confronted her. While Shadow engaged the Sith in a lightsaber battle, Benevolent disabled the Sith Acolytes accompanying her with a combination of explosives and Force illusions.[2]

Tor Siva turned out to be a powerful opponent. Despite taking on two Elders simultaneously, she was able to fight to a stand-still. However, Benevolent's aptitude for trickery managed to catch the Sith off-guard, as he blanketed the desert with a thin layer of frost. Shadow took advantage of Siva's monetary loss of balance, and impaled her with a thrust from his assassin lightsaber. The two Dark Jedi had landed the first solid blow against the One Sith on Krayiss II, but had no time for rest.[2]
