===Dictum of Two Skies===


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 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 from this House Exar Kun was formed, so that the previous clan would never be forgotten.


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.
===Exar’s Shadow Shines===


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.

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.
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 of 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 Jusidah 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.


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.
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.


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.
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.

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.

Template:Organization infobox

House Exar Kun is currently one of two houses in Clan Plagueis. 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 is primarily a Sith and Obelisk house, and is currently under the leadership of Quaestor Royal and Aedile Jagan. It currently has one Battleteam, Exar's Shadow, and is the home house of both Consul Aabsdu and Proconsul Scorpius.

Previously Clan Plagueis' strongest house, it was weakened after the Assault on Diadem during the Sixth Great Jedi War, although it has since then bounced back. Crimson Tide leader Alonzo Bodelle has a long standing grudge against House Exar Kun, and in fact the house is the Tide's main goal of destruction.

History

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

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 from this House Exar Kun was formed, so that the previous clan would never be forgotten.

Exar’s Shadow Shines

Main Article: Return to Eden

The fourth planet from the sun, Eden, was the location of the once active House Byss then Bane. House Exar Kun received a signal from the deserted planet and tasked Battleteam Exar's Shadow with investigating it. 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 they know it was much more complicated.

Upon arrival, Exar's Shadow was quickly attacked by what appeared to be Imperial troops, but turned out to be Tide pirates. After learning they were hear in search of a supercomputer called Firefly, which is coincidently already been moved to Castle Frost, the pirates were all killed, and the beacon deactivated. In the final move, the battleteam ambushed evacuating Tide members and captured their leader, Alonzo Bodelle.

Abandoning Acarr, Jusidah Becomes Home

Main Article: Battle of Byfrost

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 of 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 Jusidah system.

Aerun: Exar Kun's new home

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.

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 Treasure Chest. 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

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, half of the clans supporting the so-called Red Jac and the other having rallying behind the Blue Jac, 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 Fortress. 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, the Blades of Kun were almost completely obliterated by the attacking forces and minor damage was inflicted on Castle 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.

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.
