}}[[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.


House Exar Kun formed from Clan Exar Kun led by [[Consul]] [[Chi Long]]. Then, due to low activity, the clan was merged with Clan Satal Keto and formed Clan Plagueis. This new clan had three houses: [[House Exar Kun]], [[House Satal Keto]], and House Bane. The latter was soon after removed due to activity. In that time the house has gone through numerous struggles, leadership, and battles against forces vowed to destroy the dark jedi. However, the worst still lie ahead. Today, House Exar Kun stands with its sister clan as one of the most active houses in the brotherhood.
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.

=== Jedi Knight ===
===Dictum of Two Skies===
{{Main|Dictum of Two Skies}}


Four thousand years ago, the Jedi Order were the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy. Over countless worlds and civilisations they upheld the common good and enforced the peace that had lasted for two hundred centuries. They were respected and heeded by all, for it was fatal to misinterpret the soft words and simple demeanour of a Jedi; each carried the elegant lightsabers, symbols of their training and authority, and open witness to their powers with the Force.
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 it had been since their inception, each Jedi Master would take students from an early age, and train them in the ways of the Force and the beliefs of the Jedi, to maintain their Order and the Republic, for even in those days, danger loomed in the form of the Sith Empire. Long ago defeated by the Jedi, the remaining Sith were disparate and nomadic, suffering from constant internecine warfare and a lack of anyone strong enough to lead them back to the golden age of Marka Ragnos. Divided, the Sith were no great threat to the power of the Jedi, but without leaders, the constant gnaw of their smaller attacks kept all the Order from becoming complacent.
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.  


Yet even in those days, the Jedi were not numerous, and some Masters were bound to take on more than a single Apprentice. One such Master was the legendary Vodo-Siosk Baas, the Cerean Master whom had saved Cerea from war. Master Baas took three Apprentices; the most promising of whom was a young Knight named 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.  


Even in his early days, Exar Kun was driven by ambition and the need for power, but as a young man sought to transfer that power to the Order in its war against the Dark Side powers of the Sith. It was his belief that one should know their enemy to be able to defeat them, and he sought out knowledge of the Sith rituals and powers, aiming to separate the Dark Side from them and turn them to the use of the Jedi, yet the Jedi Council could not condone flirtations with the Dark Side even for this purpose, and Kun was admonished several times by Baas about the dangers he courted.
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 Kun refused to listen, and in training one day almost killed a fellow Apprentice in rage at a minor injury he endured. Seeking to teach Kun a lesson, Baas challenged him to a duel; Kun’s lightsabers against Baas’ walking stick. The battle waged, and Kun almost won, but was defeated by Baas’s skill and knowledge of the Force.
===Exar’s Shadow to the Rescue===
{{Main|Return to Eden}}


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.


=== Fallen Jedi Knight ===
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.


Stymied by his Master and full of pride, Exar Kun broke from the Order and set out into the galaxy to find his own answers and prove himself right. His journey brought him to Onderon and the court of King Ommin and Queen Amanos, the infamous Sith Sorcerers, where he learned of the Demon Moon above, Dxun. Called by an unknown force, Kun journeyed through the nightmare landscape of the Demon Moon until he came upon the tomb of the diabolical Freedon Nadd. Nadd’s spirit appeared to Kun, and, tempting him with the forbidden knowledge of the Sith and the answers he sought, sent Kun to Korriban, the Sith Necropolis planet.
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]].  


On Korriban, Kun fell foul of the powerful traps and beasts left by the Sith to guard their tombs, and was caught in a deadfall. Crushed and battered, Kun was close to death when Nadd’s spirit again reappeared, offering Kun life and escape, if he would only realise and accept that the Dark Side was within him, and that was his drive for the Sith secrets, for their power, not the idealism of trying to save the Jedi. Knowing Nadd was correct, and knowing it was his only chance of escape, Kun accepted the Dark Side into his soul, and in an explosion that destroyed the tomb he had been trapped within, broke free.
After killing all pirates and deactivating the beacon, the remaining Tide members were ambushed while evacuating and [[Alonzo Bodelle]], their leader was captured.


Under the tutelage of the departed Sith Lord, Kun left Korriban with the knowledge he sought, and travelled to Yavin IV, the last stronghold of the Sith Empire, where he was captured by descendants of Naga Sadow’s Massassi warriors. Sensing the Dark Side in him, and with the legends of Sadow’s cruelty in their minds, the Massassi shaman sentenced Kun to death, to be sacrificed to the Battle Hydra in order to placate its wrath. At the bidding of Freedon Nadd, Exar Kun used the Dark Side to escape his fate, and stole Naga Sadow’s Sith Amulets, turning the on the battle hydra and the Massassi shaman to escape his fate. In awe, the Massassi saw their Dark Lord come again, and bowed down before Kun as his loyal servants and warriors. When Nadd appeared to congratulate his Apprentice, Kun then turned the Sith Amulets and his own power on the spirit, and forever vanquished him from the galaxy.
===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]].


With the Massassi now loyal to him, Kun set to work recovering all the treasures Sadow had left behind, including recovering the secrets of Sith Alchemy, which he turned on his subjects to forge them into the mightiest and most lethal weapons the galaxy has ever seen. With his power consolidated and his Sith training complete, Kun set out in Sadow’s ancient battleship to destroy any he sensed who had the training to usurp his power.
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 [[Acarr System#Ysgard|Ysgard]]. Finally, after around four hours of fighting, the Tide realized they had lost again, and started to retreat.


=== Dark Lord of the Sith ===
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]].


He found them on Cinnagar in the Empress Teta systems; the Sith Acolyte and Krath High Priestess Aleema Keto, and her dark lover, the fallen Jedi Knight and Krath High Priest Ullic Qel-Droma, whom had murdered Aleema’s cousin, Satal. Kun and Qel-Droma fought for supremacy to decide who would control the powers of the Sith, but their battle was cut short by the appearance of a group of the most powerful Sith Lords of all time, led by none other than the greatest amongst them, Marka Ragnos himself.
===Re-capturing the Captured===
{{Main|Recapturing the Captured}}


Seeing the power in both of them, Ragnos declared that Exar Kun would be the new Dark Lord of the Sith, and Ullic Qel-Droma would serve him Sith Apprentice; together, they would conquer the galaxy and build a new Sith Empire. Kun began his plans by infiltrating the Jedi academy on Ossus, tempting and corrupting many of the impressionable students before exposing them to the Dark power of the Sith Holocron he recovered on Yavin IV and turning them to the Dark Side.
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.


After sending them on missions to assassinate their former Masters, Kun travelled to Coruscant to release his errant Apprentice whom had been captured by the Republic after a rash attack on the centre of the Republic in hopes of securing a quick victory. In the process, Kun again came face to face with Master Vodo-Siosk Baas, but this time, armed with his personally crafted doubled bladed Sith Lightsaber, the Cerean Master stood no chance, and fell in battle to his former student.
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.


Returning to Yavin IV with their new students in tow, now Kun and Ullic planned to implement the second phase of their plans and destroy the Jedi academy on Ossus, now that it had been plundered of its valuable students and its Masters had been assassinated. They arranged to have Aleema Keto use a Sith artefact to cause a supernova in the system, and as the Jedi sought escape, Kun’s Sith fleet struck down the escapee’s.
===Great Jedi War===
{{Main|Assault on Diadem}}


Their plan was successful, though Ullic’s ship was unable to escape the destruction of Ossus, and was captured by the Jedi. As Kun returned to Yavin OV victorious and with his plunder of Jedi artefacts, Ullic was brought face to face with his brother and his former paramour, Nomi Sunrider. Together, the pair cut Ullic from the Force, and in his weakness he surrendered to them, revealing the location of Kun’s base of power.
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.


Massing their remaining forces, the Republic descended on Yavin IV to wipe out the Dark Lord, but Kun refused to grant them the victory they sought. Taking his most powerful bodyguard, Kun had twisted, mutated and warped him with Sith alchemy into an unstoppable behemoth known as the Night Beast, Kalgrath. Kun placed Kalgrath in stasis on Yavin IV, and began the second phase of his plan. Sacrificing every Massassi on the planet, Kun used all his powers and the knowledge of the Sith he had attained, and invested his spirit into the his temple, divesting himself of his physical body and the victory the Republic wished. Though his fleets were destroyed and his warriors gone, Exar Kun lived on.
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.


=== Dark Side Spirit ===
===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.


Four thousand years later, after the fall of the Old Republic, the Rebel Alliance chose Yavin as a base for its operations against the Republic, and in the explorations of the Massassi temples and digging of their trenches, released Kalgrath into the galaxy. The murderous beast, without the control of its dark Master, slaughtered hundreds of the rebels, until Luke Skywalker tricked it into boarding a shuttle, and launched it into space. Kalgrath is now known to still live, in the company of the spirit of Ludo Kressh, on the frozen planet of Ziost.  
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]].


After the fall of the Empire and the rise of the New Republic, Luke Skywalker converted the base on Yavin IV into a new Jedi academy, and, heedless of history, the appearance of Kalgrath and of the unexpected consequences of the Force, reawakened the spirit of Kun. Preying on the weakness of Skywalkers own half-training and the malleability and psychological trauma inherent in all who had lived through the Empire, Kun found an easy subject in the form of Gantoris.
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.


Guided by Kun, Gantoris fuelled his anger and hatred, and became tainted by the Dark Side. With Kun’s help, he constructed his lightsaber and challenged Master Skywalker to a duel. Gantoris lost, and as punishment Kun destroyed him, leaving his body to be found blackened and burned the next morning. The spirits next target would be Kyp Durron, whose dark past made him the perfect target for corruption. Kun convinced Durron that he would be able to study the Dark Side without falling to it, and gradually drew the young man away from the Light.
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.


Wrathful and empowered by the Dark Side, Kyp went out to seek revenge on Grand Admiral Daala, who had imprisoned and tortured Durron after he escaped from Kessel. In revenge, Kyp used Daala’s own super weapon against her, the Sun Crusher, and destroyed Daala’s systems with its supernova inducing torpedoes. Prompting Durron to return to Yavin, Kun had the young Jedi challenge Skywalker. Durron won the battle, and left the Jedi Master comatose, his spirit separated from its body. Whilst Durron continued his reign of terror with the Sun Crusher, Kun attacked Skywalker, sending Dark Side beasts to attack the Jedi Master’s body, or possessing his students to attack directly, all as a distraction for his greatest and most important move.
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.


The Dark Lord would have succeeded eventually in his direct attacks, had the Jedi students not realised what was influencing them, and, in combining their powers with that of Skywalkers and the spirit of Kun’s former Master, Vodo-Siosk Baas, wiped the Dark Lord from the Force with the powers of the Light. Yet even they did not realise that Kun had again thwarted the efforts of his enemies to destroy him completely, and that his true victory waited in the shadows, biding its time, nursing its hatred and anger for what it had seen done to its Master, to attack and destroy them utterly.
===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 [[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.


=== The Beginning of Clan Exar Kun ===
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.  
 
When the Empire fell, feuding warlords seized control of what resources they could, and fled into the farthest corners of the galaxy to establish their private fiefdoms, many content to simply sit and brutalise the hapless occupants of the systems they conquered. Some, such as Grand Admirals Thrawn and Daala, sought to rebuild the Empire and regain their lost power. Others, such as Ronin, gathered themselves to implement the Final Order.
 
With a cabal of Dark Jedi under the leadership of the Star Chamber and with a heritage as ancient as the Sith, Ronin gained much power for the Dark Brotherhood, able to secure and hold more territory through the Force than the meagre fleet he controlled would have otherwise allowed. In exchange, the Dark Jedi gained a fleet to protect them where the power of the Dark Side failed.
 
Inducted into the Dark Brotherhood, Ronin became a Dark Primarch, and was given leave as Grand Admiral to establish a Clan in his name; Clan Alvaak. This Clan, the Elite Clan, was favoured and ruled by Ronin, for he became the Overlord of Alvaak, and was excepted from many of the governing rules of Brotherhood, including being given leave to use the Alvaakian lightsaber, an in-elegant and overlarge lightsaber.
 
For many years, Clan Alvaak was by admission only; one would need to beat the Grand Admiral in single combat and star fighter dog-fight to gain entry to the Clan and its special privileges, but during the reign of one Grand Master, this was changed. Seeing the chaotic nature of the Brotherhood, the Grand Master ordered that each Clan be divided into Houses, without exception, and that the three Orders be represented by one House within a Clan.
 
Like the others, Clan Alvaak divided into three Houses; Dominatus, Caliburnus, and Ronin, with Ronin himself retaining the title of Overlord of Alvaak, and appointing a Consul to rule for him. With the new Houses, came new power and prestige for Alvaak, and for a time, the Clan enjoyed a golden age.
 
 
=== The Birth of Clan Exar Kun ===
 
Yet, all things must end, and during the reign of Grand Master Firefox, the Great Split was declared. Breaking from the yoke of the Emperors Hammer, most of the Dark Brotherhood fled from their former home of Eos to Antei, ancestral home of the Star Chamber. In his arrogance, Ronin believe that his Elite Clan would remain with him, yet even there, dissent raged.
 
Four Alvaakian Jedi, heartened by the notion of freedom and disillusioned with their Overlord, broke from the Clan and fled with the others, taking with them two younger apprentices. The elders; Sith Warlord Khan, Sith Warmaster Khalin, Krath Epis Jonaleth Isradia Aquillarum, and Krath Priest Vally Tamalar, struck out from Eos aboard the transport vessel Reliance, with the young apprentices Vithril and Knight in tow.
 
There was great strength gathered in that small ship, a great concentration of the Dark Side that would draw to it their new Dark Master. For days, they drifted through space, lost and in shock at the tumultuous events preceding them, knowing only that they must go on and not surrender to the machinations of their enemies. It was then that Exar Kun found them.
 
A black shadow, a monstrosity of darkness of hate, he descended upon the wayward ship like a storm, and spoke to them of his plans and the events on Yavin IV. The three most powerful of them; Khan, Jonaleth and Khalin, he appointed his True Heirs, and bestowed upon them the name Kunar as sign of his favour. He taught them his arts of Chronomancy so they might better serve him, and instructed Khan to lead them back to the Brotherhood with new purpose; overthrow the Jedi who had betrayed him and bring about the Final Order. They were to establish a new Clan in his name and finish what he had started.
 
In the rapture of his presence, they swore their loyalty to him, and went on to Antei as their Dark Master wished. Before the assembly of the Dark Council and the Consuls of the other Clans, Khan spoke of their communion with Kun, and was given leave to establish the new Clan in his name. With the help of the others, Khan created House Byss, founded by Jonaleth for the Krath Order; House Ziost, created by Khalin for the Sith Order, and House Korriban, created by Vally for the Obelisk Order, with Khan as their Consul. Vithril, the young Zabrak, took up his Master Isradia’s banner as Aedile of House Byss, whilst Knight went with Khalin as his second in command in Ziost, and Clan Exar Kun was born to the galaxy.
 
Soon after, however, tragedy befell the fledgling Clan. A shockwave resonated through their bond to their Dark Master, and as he died at the hands of the Jedi, so part of them withered away also. In an uncontrolled explosion of temporal energy released by the Kunians when the pain of Kun’s death hit them, House Korriban was destroyed, wiped from existence by the power of the gathered Children of Kun. Fuelling their hatred, Khan swore vengeance on the Jedi and the Republic for their attacks and betrayal on their Dark Master, and vowed to see his resurrection and the death of every student of the Jedi.
 
 
=== The Sith-Antaran War ===
 
Their revenge, however, was halted by the Antaran War. In the centuries since the Star Chamber had ruled Antei, other life had taken residence on it, and refused to annex it to its rightful rulers. The Antarans waged guerrilla war on the Dark Brotherhood, but their pirate vessels and troops were no match for the training of the Jedi and the power of the Dark Side. Beside the rest of the Brotherhood, the Clansmen of Kun crushed the Antarans, and captured the neighbouring system of Acarr as their base, thereby also seizing control of a major trade route, the Eidolon Run, and exterminating all competition to their domination as the only stop port along the Run.
 
Seeing the wisdom in their Master’s plans, the Clansmen plotted their revenge through convert methods. In seizing the Eidolon Run, they established a façade of cultured, peaceful and educated business men and women, and extracted a tariff on all ships and vessels passing through or resting in the Acarr System. The Houses of Clan Exar Kun each played their parts in this; House Byss formed the face of the operation as the merchants, traders, administrators and operatives of the Acarr Trading Consortium, whilst gathering intelligence, information and power to use against and infiltrate the Republic and the Jedi. House Ziost were the soldiers, pilots, enforcers, governors and muscle, at the same time as performing assassinations, extortion and protection services.
 
With Acarr firmly established as a trading stop and with its bountiful natural resources at its disposal, Clan Exar Kun attempted to work closer to the infiltration, corruption, domination and ultimate destruction of the Republic and the Jedi, and the restoration of their Dark Master.
 
=== The Pretender and Chi-Long: The End Begins ===
 
The end of Clan Exar Kun began when the one called known now only by his pseudonym came to power; the Pretender. Since its founding, Exar Kun had been ruled by those who had met the Dark Lords shade, but the Pretender had never spoken with Kun, and did not share his vision. Against the council of Heirs, he took the Clan as his personal tool, and like a hammer of glass, it shattered in his grasp.
 
The Heirs revolted, and war was waged between clansmen. When finally the dust settled, a single Heir and Elder remained; Jonaleth. But now the Clan was weakened and dying. Disgusted with what had happened and the necessities it had driven him too, Jonaleth swore an oath never again to sit on the seat of power, lest he be forced again to slay his brothers, and passed on the rule of the Clan to another, the former Grand Master Chi-Long, prophesizing that when next he took the seat, it would be a time of Darkness Unending.
 
Arriving at the scene of the devastation, Chi-Long and his forces tended to the wounded of the Clan as Isradia reported on what had happened, then disappeared. Under the Grand Masters control, the Clan was stabilized again, but would never return to the glory it had known.
 
=== 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
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
=== Exar’s Shadow Shines ===
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
=== Kun’s Requiem Razes ===
 
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.)
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
=== Abandoning Acarr, Jusidah Becomes Home ===
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.

=== Great Jedi War ===
 
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.
 
== Exalted Lords of Kun ==
 
Every so often an individual comes around who goes above and beyond the call of duty, being active on all fronts and fiercely loyal and supportive of House Exar Kun. When someone displays such character, the House Summit shall belay on this person the title of Exalted Lord of Kun!
 
All members of the House Summit and former Exalted Lords have the ability to submit a request to the Quaestor to have someone appointed to the position. Upon gathering the requests, the Quaestor, with some guidance from the Aedile, shall decide on the next to wear the title. Upon reaching a decision, the Quaestor shall preside over a ceremony naming the new Lord of Kun and make the announcement to the entire House.
 
Exalted Lords of Kun hold a position of honor and prestige in House Exar Kun. They maintain a position in the HEK Fleet Chain of Command (with the current Lord holding the most authority of the group), gain permanent special seating at House meetings, have their name placed in the Line of Kun, and are often looked to for guidance and support by the House Summit.
 
Candidates for the position of Exalted Lord of Kun must be faithful and active servants of both Exar Kun and Clan Plagueis. They should support the house through one or all of the following ways: gaming, writing, fictional development, leadership, outstanding service to the House, recruitment, helping guide new members, etc. They must be known for maintaining ethics and politeness on the message board and in the IRC. They also must be very trustworthy, and vow not to betray the house and clan.
 
Someone loses the title of Exalted Lord of Kun and is removed from the Line of Kun if they bring dishonor to Exar Kun or Clan Plagueis, most often in the form of being found guilty of something by the Chamber of Justice. Likewise, should a member leave House Exar Kun (unless they are seeking a position of greater leadership), they shall lose the title.
 
When one is replaced by a new Lord of Kun, they shall keep their seat in meetings, and their title in the Line forever (or until something in the above paragraph happens). Only the reigning Lord of Kun, however, will be given the most authority. Many times being given information that only the Quaestor and Aedile are aware of.

[ 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.

History

Note: For a detailed history of House Exar Kun before the merger, see Clan Exar Kun.

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.

Abandoning Acarr, Jusidah Becomes Home

Main article: Battle of Byfrost
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.
