House Exar Kun is all that remains of the once proud [[Clan]] of the same name. Today it is a house in [[Clan Plagueis]], located on [[Aerun]] in the [[Jusadih System]]. It is named after Sith Lord [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Exar_Kun Exar Kun]

}}[[House]] '''Exar Kun''' was one of two houses in [[Clan Plagueis]] prior to the Clan's reorganization into a House in [[30 ABY to 39 ABY|33 ABY]]. Named after the [[starwars:Exar Kun|Dark Lord of the same name]], the house is based off the former [[Clan Exar Kun]], closed after the [[Dictum of Two Skies|merger]]. The House was primarily a [[Sith]] and [[Obelisk]] house. Previously Clan Plagueis' strongest house, it was weakened considerably after the two Great Jedi Wars. During the [[Seventh Great Jedi War]] the house was crushed by the [[Assault on Diadem]] which left a lot of Kunians dead, although it has since then bounced back.
 
During the [[Eighth Great Jedi War]] however, House Exar Kun was to suffer an even more devastating fate at the hands of alien invaders. Their home planet, [[Aerun]], was left a barren land, with the many cities and buildings totally gone. The two great beacons of House Exar Kun's strength, [[Diadem Fortress]] and the [[Ash Citadel]], were both Completely destroyed and little remains of the long history of the two structures.

===Dictum of Two Skies===
 
{{Main|Dictum of Two Skies}}
=== Dictum of Two Skies ===
 
The once great Clan Exar Kun was weakened and in shambles, clinging to the shreds of its previous glory and honor as corruption began to spread throughout the Clan.  Clan Satal Keto was in the same state as the once glorious Exar Kun, forcing the Dark Council to intervene.  In its entirety, the legendary Star Chamber visited the remnants of Exar Kun and Satal Keto, and pronounced the Dictum of Two Skies. There could no longer be two fates for these Clans; they would unite now as one, and lend the strengths of both to a new order for them. The composure of this Clan would be decided in ritual combat; the weak would perish so that the strong might survive.
 
And thus the Dictum of Two Skies was carried out. New members came to the field, and for a month, Jedi fought Jedi in battle for supremacy, and when the dust finally fell, a new band stood together, united by victory and strength, their weaknesses purged and cleansed in a trial by fire. From the ashes of two Clans arose a new one: Plagueis, a new life born of death. Then the Dictum was released, and as their final act, the Elders of the Star Chamber worked a great feat of Force magic - grasping the skeins of reality itself, they wove together the twin fates of Exar Kun and Satal Keto, and merged their powers into one.  And with that the two once great Clans became Houses of the newly formed Clan Plagueis.
The Crimson Tide Emerges


[[image:CPlogo.jpg|thumbnail|200px|right|Clan Plagueis Logo]]
The once great [[Clan Exar Kun]] was in turmoil, the [[Crimson Tide]] had struck them with the precision of a scalpel. Even though the war was won by Kunians and Ketoans fighting side by side, the leadership of both clans was wiped out in one battle, only one elder remained standing after the last battle was fought.


The Crimson Tide became a threat to the recently formed Exar Kun in the Elysian Sector.  A pirate organization of exceptional skill and well equipped, the Crimson Tide attacked the shipping and trade routes of House Exar Kun and its possessions. Eventually the brutality and continual disruptions of the Crimson Tide, forced the Clan and the House to act.
As Clan Exar Kun started to weaken without its seasoned leadership, Corruption became more and more prevalent while at the same time the Kunians started to cling desperately to the shreds of past glory and honor. [[Clan Satal Keto]] wasn't in a much better state than the once Glorious Exar Kun.  


The Crimson Tide attacks were disastrously efficient and well planned and if pirate organization continued it would have only been a matter of time before the entire Clan was brought to its knees.  Unbeknownst to House Exar Kun, the Tide had more entrenched plans than they expected. The organization had successfully implanted itself throughout the Elysian sector and infiltrated a once desolate region of Ysgard, establishing a highly sophisticated and protected base.  The Crimson Tide was more than a minor pirate threat to House Exar Kun.
Eventually, the [[Star Chamber]] witnessed the troubles of Satal Keto and Exar Kun and decided to intervene. They would break open Exar Kun and Satal Keto upon the forge and create [[Clan Plagueis]] out of its shattered remains, a Superclan containing the Vitality and Power of Exar Kun with the Arcane Wisdom and Ancient Knowledge of Satal Keto. The Reborn Clan would be named appropriately after Darth Plagueis the Wise, Master of Life and Death.  


To combat the entrenched Crimson Tide, House Exar Kun prepared a intricate plan involving the both Battle Teams, Exar’s Shadow and Blades of Kun, along with various upper level House members on separate missions.  The House was extremely successful in their missions, destroying the Tide’s Dreadnaught flagship, Ysgard base and the infrastructure within the sector.  Unusually, during the mission, an Imperator-class Mark II Star Destroyer appeared and was boarded.  The Star Destroyer was vacant, at the House Summit chose to destroy it rather than risk discovering why it was deserted.  House Exar Kun had met its first major challenge and successfully united and defeated it.
And inside this new Clan Plagueis the former clans would be bound as House Exar Kun and [[House Satal Keto]] in memory of the glory and honor of the broken clans, these two Houses would be joined by the new [[House Bane]].


=== Exar’s Shadow Shines ===
===Exar’s Shadow to the Rescue===
{{Main|Return to Eden}}


The fourth planet from the sun, Eden, was the location of the once active House Byss then Bane.  Shortly after the suspected defeat of the Crimson Tide, House Exar Kun received a signal from the deserted planet and tasked Exar’s Shadow Battle Team with investigation. Originally, the House leadership and intelligence believe that the beckon signal was no more than natives intervening in areas they should not be.  Little did the House know it was more complicated.
The fourth planet of the Acarr System, a world named [[Acarr System#Eden|Eden]] was the scene of one of Exar Kun's more bizarre battles. Starting out very simple the conflict quickly escalated to the paranormal.


Upon arrival to the fourth planet of Eden, Exar’s Shadow was already expected by what appeared to be Imperials.  During the battles, the Battle Team determined that they were pirates, of none other than the destroyed Crimson Tide.  In addition, Exar’s Shadow came in contact with Dark Side users who were well trained in the arts. While throwing the Battle Team off, they successfully defeated this new and unexpected enemy.
In the ending days of [[11 ABY to 19 ABY|19 ABY]], House Exar Kun, then based on [[Acarr System#Elysian|Elysian]], picked up a distress signal originating from the abandoned world that previously served as the home to the closed [[House Byss]] then [[House Bane]]. Suspecting [[Crimson Tide]] involvement due to incoming reports of a planned attack, the summit decided to send the battleteam Exar's Shadow to check it out. Upon landing though, they were immediately beset by troopers in Imperial Armor.  


After investigation, it was discovered that the Crimson Tide was interested in seizing an artificial intelligence known as Firefly.  Firefly was created to guard the knowledge and secrets gained by House Byss and later Bane.  Firefly’s task was to take information, link it and extract patters and meanings that even the wisest Krath could not fathom. Foolishly, the pirate organization believed that the Firefly was left in the House Bane complex but it was taken during the closure of Bane and was stored in the vaults of Castle Frost.
These "Imperial Troopers" turned out to be Tide Pirates who where searching for the ''Firefly'' Supercomputer which had already been moved to Castle Frost on [[Acarr System#Byfrost|Byfrost]] and later to the [[Dark Tower]] on [[Jusadih System#Kapsina|Kapsina]]. In the end the pirates were killed, some by the Battleteam, others by the Ghost of [[starwars:Darth Bane|Darth Bane]].  


In the final move by Exar’s Shadow, the Battle Team ambushed evacuating Crimson Tide members and captured their leader, Alonzo Bodelle.  Exar’s Shadow successfully restrained the Crimson Tide pirate chief to return him to Castle Frost for interrogaton.  In a closing measure, the Battle Team members ordered the removal of foreign materials and dead bodies from the planet and reactivated the House’s security systems, ensuring that no one trespasses again.
After killing all pirates and deactivating the beacon, the remaining Tide members were ambushed while evacuating and [[Alonzo Bodelle]], their leader was captured.


=== Kun’s Requiem Razes ===
===Abandoning Acarr, Jusidah Becomes Home===
{{Main|Battle of Byfrost}}
[[image:Aerun.jpg|thumb|left|175px|Aerun: Exar Kun's new home]]
In the [[Acarr System]], the sun was shuddering with anger. The great feat of the [[Star Chamber]] had distorted reality by merging the great powers of [[Clan Exar Kun|Exar Kun]] and [[Clan Satal Keto|Satal Keto]], causing the heart of the great star [[Acarr System#Sigil|Sigil]], which had already been unstable, to falter. The doom was close, but the Clan and Houses still had time to act. With great speed, the Clan mobilized and began evacuation, fleeing to the [[Jusadih System]].


On Elysian rested a great temple that Kun’s Requiem was charged to investigate for possible activity. The House leaders pitted Exar’s Shadow and Kun’s Requiem against one another on separate important missions, hoping that both Battle Teams would force the other to excel. In addition, the temple mission was one that was not set to be overly dangerous and in the House leaders’ opinion, inter-House rivalry was needed.  (The mission Exar’s Shadow was tasked with is written above.)
During the evacuation, the dreaded [[Crimson Tide]] returned to seek revenge for the defeat suffered when battling the old clans. The entire clan was not there at that moment, however, since many were already in the [[Jusadih System]] preparing it to be the clan's new home. Specifically, almost all of [[House Satal Keto]] had already relocated, and thus Exar Kun was forced to work by itself in defending the remaining cargo.


Upon reaching the temple, the Battle Team discovered a defensive perimeter already in place.  It was as the House leaders had feared, a pirate organization has set up a base right under the Dark Jedi’s noses. With great skill, Kun’s Requiem successfully disabled the defenses and invaded the temple.  The Battle Team discovered a research facility and after questioning the chief scientist, Kun’s Requiem engaged in total destruction of the temple’s facilities.  The ruined facility became evidence of the infamous Crimson Tide had survived.
They fought galiantly while holding off the Tide, even managing to destroy their Dreadnaught capital ship, along with their small outpost on [[Acarr System#Ysgard|Ysgard]]. Finally, after around four hours of fighting, the Tide realized they had lost again, and started to retreat.


After the minor interrogation, Kun’s Requiem discovered that the Tide was going to strike.  The Battle Team took the various fighters and shuttle it possessed and prepared for battle.  The battle began as the Battle Team was in the midst of preparations; the pirate organization had known the Dark Jedi were coming. Outnumbered over six times, the Battle Team entered the fray, with six TIE Defenders and one shuttle.
Exar Kun would not have it, though, and used the force to trap a large majority of the Tide in the system, where the radiation from the sun killed them. Those still alive quickly fled. With that, Plagueis left [[Acarr System|Acarr]] forever, heading towards their new home in the [[Jusadih System]].


After a long battle, the pirates eventually surrendered and requested that the Dark Jedi board their vessel.  Against their better judgment, Kun’s Requiem entered the pirate ship.  With a safe entrance, the Battle Team prepared for a trap.  After being invited for drinks, with Imperial-dressed officers, Kun’s Requiem sprung the trap.  In the ship’s mess, the Battle Team destroyed the majority of the crew and began to exterminate the rest of the pirates.  With the skill of veteran Dark Jedi and the Dark Side of the Force, Kun’s Requiem destroyed the pirates and after escaping the ship, destroyed it.  The Battle Team had discovered remnants of the Crimson Tide in their mission, causing for unrest to spread throughout the members of the now infamous Kun’s Requiem.
===Re-capturing the Captured===
{{Main|Recapturing the Captured}}


=== Abandoning Acarr, Jusidah Becomes Home ===
For months Battleteam [[Exar's Shadow]], led by Sith Commander [[Aabsdu|Aabsdu Dupar]], interrogated [[Alonzo Bodelle]], but they could pull nothing valuable from him. One night, a small squad of pirates unrelated to the [[Crimson Tide]] invaded [[Diadem Fortress]]. They released Alonzo from his sell and stole blueprints of the Dark Tower on Jusadih.
[[image:Alonzo.jpg|thumb|right|130px|Alonzo Bodelle managed to escape Diadem with the help of a group of pirates]]
Quaestor [[Braecen Kaeth|Braecen]] quickly sent the house's two battleteams, [[Exar's Shadow]] and [[Blades of Kun]], after the pirates. They chased each other for three days before finally coming to an epic battle over the planet of [[starwars:Dathomir|Dathomir]]. Blades of Kun fought the forces in space, while Exar's Shadow boarded the pirates' capital ship, ''The Treasure Chest''. Shadow placed bombs all throughout the ship, and detonated them while Commander Aabsdu searched for Alonzo. In the end, however, the team was forced to retreat as the ship started to fall apart. They left, sure that Alonzo and the rest of the pirates had been killed.


[[image:Aerun.jpg|thumbnail|170px|left|Aerun: Exar Kun's New Home]]
They were unaware, however, that Alonzo had in fact survived. He made his way to Dathomir, where he met up with the rest of the [[Crimson Tide]], and slowly they formed their plan to attack [[Clan Plagueis]] once again.


In the Acarr system, the sun was shuddering with anger.  The great feat of the Star Chamber, the Dictum of the Two Skies, had distorted reality by merging the great powers of Exar Kun and Satal Keto, causing the heart of the great star of Sigil to falter.  The doom was close, but the Clan and Houses still had time to act.  With great speed, the Clan mobilized and began evacuation, fleeing to the Jusidah system.
===Great Jedi War===
{{Main|Assault on Diadem}}


During the evacuation, the dreaded Crimson Tide returned to seek vengeance on their defeaters, and launched an attack on the moving Plagueis forces. The Clan fought valiantly, and despite overwhelming odds against them, held back the Tide forces until the evacuation could be completed.  In a final act of malign vengeance, Consul Kir Katarn and Proconsul Aristan Dantes blockaded the system, trapping the majority of the mercenary forces within as Sigil went supernova.
The [[Sixth Great Jedi War]] was a time of darkness for House Exar Kun as enemy forces moved to wipe the Dark Jedi from the face of [[Aerun]]. As the Dark Brotherhood split in two, rogue Dark Jedi of[[ Clan Naga Sadow]] convinced growing anti-Kunian forces on Aerun to revolt and assault [[Diadem Fortress]]. Realizing that rebel sentiments were growing on Aerun, Quaestor [[Scorpius]] made his way to the Aerunian Senate to put them in line. En route, however, his shuttle was attacked and shot down. Aerunian rebel forces, with support from rogue Naga Sadow Dark Jedi, then attacked Diadem. [[Jonaleth Isradia]] and [[Aedile]] [[Aabsdu]] managed to hold off the attackers until Scorpius crawled out of the Decarian Jungle, bloody and bruised, to help fight off the enemy forces.


With the bulk of the pirate organization destroyed, House Exar Kun began construction of their primary headquarters on their new planet of Aerun, a peaceful planet engulfed in deadly forests.
In the battle, [[Blades of Kun]] were almost completely obliterated by the attacking forces and minor damage was inflicted on Diadem. The Kunians successfully fended off the attack and captured the rebel leader, whom Scorpius publicly executed before the Aerunian Senate as a show of what happens when House Exar Kun is crossed.


=== Recapturing the Captured ===
House Exar Kun did not have too much time to lick its wounds, however, as the Clan Summit called them to battle for Plagueis and the Jac they supported on Antei. Scorpius resigned as Quaestor at this time to pursue a secret mission the Consul had sent him on, and Aabsdu replaced him to lead Kunian forces on Antei against the rival clans. When all was settled, the House of Exar Kun returned home to Diadem Fortress, tired and torn but ready to pursue a new dawn of glory for Exar Kun.


For months Battle Team Exar's Shadow, led by Aabsdu, interrogated Alonzo Bodelle, but they could pull nothing valuable from him. One night, a small squad of pirates unrelated to the Crimson Tide invaded Diadem Fortress. They released Alonzo from his sell and stole blueprints to the Dark Tower on Jusadih.
===Enter the aliens===
The house had since recovered from the events of the last Great Jedi War, and Exar Kun was well and truly back on its feet. The current summit had been in power for many months now and things were looking good for the Kunians. Reports had been coming in for months on the incoming threat of a race of unknown aliens. It was rumored that they were heading for Coruscant, and being in such close proximity, the whole Jusadih System was put on high alert.


Quaestor Braecen quickly sent the house's two battle teams, Exar's Shadow and Blades of Kun, after the pirates. They chased each other for nine days before finally coming to an epic battle over the planet of Dathomir. Blades of Kun fought the forces in space, while Exar's Shadow boarded the pirates' capital ship, <i>The Killer</i>. Exar's Shadow placed bombs all throughout the ship, and detonated them while Commander Aabsdu searched for Alonzo. In the end, however, the team was forced to retreat as the ship started to fall apart. They left, sure that Alonzo and the rest of the pirates had been killed.
It did not seem like they were going to attack though, and the Consul had said that it was highly unlikely they would target the Jusadih system anyway, so the Clan, and the House let the rumors pass. The Rite of Supremacy award ceremony followed, and the summits were all in attendance including Quaestor Royal and Aedile [[Jagan]].


[[image:Alonzo.jpg|thumbnail|130px|right|Alonzo Bodelle]]
The attack came during the ceremony though, when everyone was least prepared, and even the greatest of Jedi could not sense the aliens, who had no presence in the Force. They tore through the Exar Kun fleet and the members at the ceremony had just enough time to escape and flee into the shroud.


They were unaware, however, that Alonzo had in fact survived. He made his way to Dathomir, where he met up with the rest of the Crimson Tide, and slowly they formed their plan to attack Clan Plagueis once again.
Meanwhile, back on Aerun, the aliens had begun bombing the entire planet and sent down numerous warriors to dispatch of the Jedi left. Sith Warrior [[Dismal]] and Archpriest [[Scorpius]] were among those left to protect the planet, but despite their valiant efforts, even they could not hold off the invaders and were forced to flee the planet as the last remains of the [[Ash Citadel]] and the [[Diadem Fortress]] were destroyed.


=== Great Jedi War ===
The attacks on the House, and indeed the whole clan, continued for nearly a week. The aliens were relentless in their attacks. They finally stopped after the commander of the invaders was given new instruction for his mission, and Exar Kun was saved as the aliens left to pursue other missions.


Coming Soon...
===New Dawn===
In the short time House Exar Kun had been established, a great deal of activities and successes has become part of its history. The House’s success has already brought it great prestige and nostalgia of the glory days of Clan Exar Kun could be heard throughout the Diadem Fortress on Aerun. The House is more than ready to attain great glory; it is only a matter of time until House Exar Kun is given the chance.


=== New Dawn ===
===Away from home===
With the alien attack on the House’s home planet of [[Jusadih System#Sigil2|Aerun]] this left them with one choice, they had to move to [[Jusadih System#Kapsina|Kapsina]] for the time being.  House Exar Kun was left to look towards what would come their way, and it wasn’t long before the Clan needed the House once more.

With this a time to war came for the house, bringing the next great Jedi war into effect. The [[Ninth Great Jedi War]] titled Unification was underway. This was one of the House's times to prove themselves yet again.  The House saw the war through, and the outcome was one that was suspected, the Brotherhood, working together as one, managed to retake their Home World of [[Antei System#Antei|Antei]]. On coming back to the [[Dark Tower]], times changed for the team, as they returned, it was time for a new leadership within the house, Quaestor [[Cethgus Kuga|Cethgus]] and Aedile [[Ood Bnar Sythe'rae|Ood]] would be the ones to lead the house into the future.  
 
== Battle Teams ==
 
House Exar Kun is composed of two battle teams: Battle Teams [[Exar's Shadow]], designed for writers, and [[Blades of Kun]], a newly reopened battleteam, which is for Exar Kun's gamers.

[ Source ]

House Exar Kun was one of two houses in Clan Plagueis prior to the Clan's reorganization into a House in 33 ABY. Named after the Dark Lord of the same name, the house is based off the former Clan Exar Kun, closed after the merger. The House was primarily a Sith and Obelisk house. Previously Clan Plagueis' strongest house, it was weakened considerably after the two Great Jedi Wars. During the Seventh Great Jedi War the house was crushed by the Assault on Diadem which left a lot of Kunians dead, although it has since then bounced back.

During the Eighth Great Jedi War however, House Exar Kun was to suffer an even more devastating fate at the hands of alien invaders. Their home planet, Aerun, was left a barren land, with the many cities and buildings totally gone. The two great beacons of House Exar Kun's strength, Diadem Fortress and the Ash Citadel, were both Completely destroyed and little remains of the long history of the two structures.

Dictum of Two Skies

Main article: Dictum of Two Skies

The once great Clan Exar Kun was in turmoil, the Crimson Tide had struck them with the precision of a scalpel. Even though the war was won by Kunians and Ketoans fighting side by side, the leadership of both clans was wiped out in one battle, only one elder remained standing after the last battle was fought.

As Clan Exar Kun started to weaken without its seasoned leadership, Corruption became more and more prevalent while at the same time the Kunians started to cling desperately to the shreds of past glory and honor. Clan Satal Keto wasn't in a much better state than the once Glorious Exar Kun.

Eventually, the Star Chamber witnessed the troubles of Satal Keto and Exar Kun and decided to intervene. They would break open Exar Kun and Satal Keto upon the forge and create Clan Plagueis out of its shattered remains, a Superclan containing the Vitality and Power of Exar Kun with the Arcane Wisdom and Ancient Knowledge of Satal Keto. The Reborn Clan would be named appropriately after Darth Plagueis the Wise, Master of Life and Death.

And inside this new Clan Plagueis the former clans would be bound as House Exar Kun and House Satal Keto in memory of the glory and honor of the broken clans, these two Houses would be joined by the new House Bane.

Exar’s Shadow to the Rescue

Main article: Return to Eden

The fourth planet of the Acarr System, a world named Eden was the scene of one of Exar Kun's more bizarre battles. Starting out very simple the conflict quickly escalated to the paranormal.

In the ending days of 19 ABY, House Exar Kun, then based on Elysian, picked up a distress signal originating from the abandoned world that previously served as the home to the closed House Byss then House Bane. Suspecting Crimson Tide involvement due to incoming reports of a planned attack, the summit decided to send the battleteam Exar's Shadow to check it out. Upon landing though, they were immediately beset by troopers in Imperial Armor.

These "Imperial Troopers" turned out to be Tide Pirates who where searching for the Firefly Supercomputer which had already been moved to Castle Frost on Byfrost and later to the Dark Tower on Kapsina. In the end the pirates were killed, some by the Battleteam, others by the Ghost of Darth Bane.

After killing all pirates and deactivating the beacon, the remaining Tide members were ambushed while evacuating and Alonzo Bodelle, their leader was captured.

Aerun: Exar Kun's new home

In the Acarr System, the sun was shuddering with anger. The great feat of the Star Chamber had distorted reality by merging the great powers of Exar Kun and Satal Keto, causing the heart of the great star Sigil, which had already been unstable, to falter. The doom was close, but the Clan and Houses still had time to act. With great speed, the Clan mobilized and began evacuation, fleeing to the Jusadih System.

During the evacuation, the dreaded Crimson Tide returned to seek revenge for the defeat suffered when battling the old clans. The entire clan was not there at that moment, however, since many were already in the Jusadih System preparing it to be the clan's new home. Specifically, almost all of House Satal Keto had already relocated, and thus Exar Kun was forced to work by itself in defending the remaining cargo.

They fought galiantly while holding off the Tide, even managing to destroy their Dreadnaught capital ship, along with their small outpost on Ysgard. Finally, after around four hours of fighting, the Tide realized they had lost again, and started to retreat.

Exar Kun would not have it, though, and used the force to trap a large majority of the Tide in the system, where the radiation from the sun killed them. Those still alive quickly fled. With that, Plagueis left Acarr forever, heading towards their new home in the Jusadih System.

Re-capturing the Captured

Main article: Recapturing the Captured

For months Battleteam Exar's Shadow, led by Sith Commander Aabsdu Dupar, interrogated Alonzo Bodelle, but they could pull nothing valuable from him. One night, a small squad of pirates unrelated to the Crimson Tide invaded Diadem Fortress. They released Alonzo from his sell and stole blueprints of the Dark Tower on Jusadih.

Alonzo Bodelle managed to escape Diadem with the help of a group of pirates

Quaestor Braecen quickly sent the house's two battleteams, Exar's Shadow and Blades of Kun, after the pirates. They chased each other for three days before finally coming to an epic battle over the planet of Dathomir. Blades of Kun fought the forces in space, while Exar's Shadow boarded the pirates' capital ship, The Treasure Chest. Shadow placed bombs all throughout the ship, and detonated them while Commander Aabsdu searched for Alonzo. In the end, however, the team was forced to retreat as the ship started to fall apart. They left, sure that Alonzo and the rest of the pirates had been killed.

They were unaware, however, that Alonzo had in fact survived. He made his way to Dathomir, where he met up with the rest of the Crimson Tide, and slowly they formed their plan to attack Clan Plagueis once again.

Great Jedi War

Main article: Assault on Diadem

The Sixth Great Jedi War was a time of darkness for House Exar Kun as enemy forces moved to wipe the Dark Jedi from the face of Aerun. As the Dark Brotherhood split in two, rogue Dark Jedi ofClan Naga Sadow convinced growing anti-Kunian forces on Aerun to revolt and assault Diadem Fortress. Realizing that rebel sentiments were growing on Aerun, Quaestor Scorpius made his way to the Aerunian Senate to put them in line. En route, however, his shuttle was attacked and shot down. Aerunian rebel forces, with support from rogue Naga Sadow Dark Jedi, then attacked Diadem. Jonaleth Isradia and Aedile Aabsdu managed to hold off the attackers until Scorpius crawled out of the Decarian Jungle, bloody and bruised, to help fight off the enemy forces.

In the battle, Blades of Kun were almost completely obliterated by the attacking forces and minor damage was inflicted on Diadem. The Kunians successfully fended off the attack and captured the rebel leader, whom Scorpius publicly executed before the Aerunian Senate as a show of what happens when House Exar Kun is crossed.

House Exar Kun did not have too much time to lick its wounds, however, as the Clan Summit called them to battle for Plagueis and the Jac they supported on Antei. Scorpius resigned as Quaestor at this time to pursue a secret mission the Consul had sent him on, and Aabsdu replaced him to lead Kunian forces on Antei against the rival clans. When all was settled, the House of Exar Kun returned home to Diadem Fortress, tired and torn but ready to pursue a new dawn of glory for Exar Kun.

Enter the aliens

The house had since recovered from the events of the last Great Jedi War, and Exar Kun was well and truly back on its feet. The current summit had been in power for many months now and things were looking good for the Kunians. Reports had been coming in for months on the incoming threat of a race of unknown aliens. It was rumored that they were heading for Coruscant, and being in such close proximity, the whole Jusadih System was put on high alert.

It did not seem like they were going to attack though, and the Consul had said that it was highly unlikely they would target the Jusadih system anyway, so the Clan, and the House let the rumors pass. The Rite of Supremacy award ceremony followed, and the summits were all in attendance including Quaestor Royal and Aedile Jagan.

The attack came during the ceremony though, when everyone was least prepared, and even the greatest of Jedi could not sense the aliens, who had no presence in the Force. They tore through the Exar Kun fleet and the members at the ceremony had just enough time to escape and flee into the shroud.

Meanwhile, back on Aerun, the aliens had begun bombing the entire planet and sent down numerous warriors to dispatch of the Jedi left. Sith Warrior Dismal and Archpriest Scorpius were among those left to protect the planet, but despite their valiant efforts, even they could not hold off the invaders and were forced to flee the planet as the last remains of the Ash Citadel and the Diadem Fortress were destroyed.

The attacks on the House, and indeed the whole clan, continued for nearly a week. The aliens were relentless in their attacks. They finally stopped after the commander of the invaders was given new instruction for his mission, and Exar Kun was saved as the aliens left to pursue other missions.

New Dawn

In the short time House Exar Kun had been established, a great deal of activities and successes has become part of its history. The House’s success has already brought it great prestige and nostalgia of the glory days of Clan Exar Kun could be heard throughout the Diadem Fortress on Aerun. The House is more than ready to attain great glory; it is only a matter of time until House Exar Kun is given the chance.

Away from home

With the alien attack on the House’s home planet of Aerun this left them with one choice, they had to move to Kapsina for the time being. House Exar Kun was left to look towards what would come their way, and it wasn’t long before the Clan needed the House once more.

With this a time to war came for the house, bringing the next great Jedi war into effect. The Ninth Great Jedi War titled Unification was underway. This was one of the House's times to prove themselves yet again. The House saw the war through, and the outcome was one that was suspected, the Brotherhood, working together as one, managed to retake their Home World of Antei. On coming back to the Dark Tower, times changed for the team, as they returned, it was time for a new leadership within the house, Quaestor Cethgus and Aedile Ood would be the ones to lead the house into the future.
