House Exar Kun

{{nominated}}

House Exar Kun is all that remains of the once proud Clan of the same name. Yet, to date it still flourishes and is still a well known House of the Dark Brotherhood.

History

Jedi Knight

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Fallen Jedi Knight

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dark Lord of the Sith

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.

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.

Exar Kun, Dark Lord of the Sith

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dark Side Spirit

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.

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.

Exar Kun's Tomb on Yavin IV

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.

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 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.

The Beginning of Clan Exar Kun

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

Aerun: Exar Kun's New 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.

Recapturing the Captured

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.

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, The Killer. 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.

Alonzo Bodelle

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

Once again the entire Brotherhood became engulfed in conflict with the emergence of two Grand Masters, both claiming their right to the Iron Throne. The Clans fought against one another and Clan Plagueis formed its own enemies in this war. At the onset, the Clan was greatly divided but upon the monumental efforts of the Clan and House Summits, the Plagueians united as one.

During the conflict, House Exar Kun received the greatest damage and greatest victory. Members of the enemy Clan Naga Sadow with rebelling Aerunians attempted an invasion and destruction of Exar Kun’s headquarters, Diadem Fortress. After a great battle that resulted in the damage of Diadem Fortress the Kunians successfully defeated the forces of Naga Sadow and reclaimed control of the Aerun population. Although a sweeping success, Diadem Fortress was extremely damaged and weakness in the defenses were revealed but House Exar Kun remained stalwart, awaiting the next mission to be assigned to them.

The decision had been made by the Clan Summit to attack the bastion on Selen, the Arconae Citadel, headquarters of one of Plagueis’ prime enemies, Clan Arcona. In a joint effort, the entire Clan swept into the Selen system, engulfing it in the might of Plagueis. Both Houses moved on the Arconae fleets, destroying or disabling them, and then prepared for the planetary invasion. Although Arconae defenses were greater than believed, the Houses swept in successfully defeating the Arconae forces after hours of long battles.

After several long months, the conflict known as the Sixth Great Jedi War came to an end, with no Clan freed from destruction and loss. Although House Exar Kun had lost a great deal, the experience and prestige the Kunians achieved was worth the sacrifice.

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.

Battle Teams

House Exar Kun is composed of two battle teams: Battle Teams Exar's Shadow and Blades of Kun, a newly reopened battleteam, which is for Exar Kun's gamers.
