'''House Galeres''' is one of the two multi-Order [[House|Houses]] that make up [[Arcona|Clan Arcona]]. As a breed apart from the rest of the Clan, and indeed the rest of the Brotherhood, brethren of Galeres spend their time not on arcane matters of the Force or the finer aspects of the Dark Side, but on the "physical" side of what it means to be a Dark Jedi. Boasting the renowned [[Soulfire Strike Team]] commando unit and moving through the galaxy at large as [[Starscream Tactical Solutions]], a Private Military Company, the Galerians are the veritable "heavy hitters" of Clan Arcona as masters of blade and blaster, always at the fore of any engagement.

There was a time when the Sith in House Galeres would rather lose a limb than be separated from the cockpit of their snubfighters. That time has passed, and while they are still formidable pilots, the Sith of today have created a more profound and important role for themselves as strategists, tacticians, and ship commanders. While their skill with arms, particularly the lightsaber, is considerable, members of the Order much prefer to lean over a holo-grid and plan out the destruction of an enemy installation rather than lead a force and destroy it themselves. However, not all Sith are tacticians and some have reverted back to the roots of the first Sith-Imperial Empire, finding satisfaction in the armored suits of the Sith Warriors of old.

Obelisk’s play as crucial a role in the very structure of Galeres as both of the other orders. Whether serving within one of the elite Galerian Battleteams, or choosing to stay as a standard member, their tactical prowess and skill with a blade is second only to the most famous blademasters of Dark Side lore. Particularly, the Galerian Obelisks pride themselves on their strenuous physical training regimen, which is designed not only to improve fitness, but enhance hand-eye coordination, hand-to-hand combat, as well as magnify their skills with both melee and ranged weapons of various styles. While most serve as the military might of Galeres, some Obelisks have enhanced their minds enough to participate in House and Clan politics, proving that they are more than just the muscle-bound brutes that stereotype portrays them as.

A mixture of study and practical application defines the Krath of House Galeres, many of which serve as spies and assassins. No matter the specialization, their methods are held to the highest standard and it is not uncommon for them to be seen pioneering new techniques and tactics for the House, both in theory and in the field. Particularly, Galerian Krath are masters of disguise and manipulation, while also often representing their House in more “delicate” matters, such as political dealings with other Brotherhood units. Finally, it deserves to be mentioned that many of the more experienced Krath can be found taking part in Clan Arcona’s Master/Student Program, individually tutoring Journeymen in the early stages of their Dark Path.

Galeres was originally the Obelisk House of Arcona, and has always served as the Warrior House of the Clan. Consuls have foolishly closed the House in times of low activity, resulting in a drastic plumment of morale but in actuality, House Galeres has long been the sustaining heart of Arcona, producing many a skilled warrior and successul leader.

In the days before the Exodus, Galeres was housed on Coronada with the rest of the Clan, and were almost strictly Obelisk in nature.  After the Exodus and the discovery of the Dajorra system, a base was quickly established on Sukhur, the harshest of the worlds.  But on a planet of sifting glass seas and blistering heat, the dangers of the base soon outweighed the practicality of it. So they found the lush planet of Eldar. However, spies from the Clan's now-closed third House, Oriens Obscurum, relayed information back to the HOO Summit and when House Galeres left Sukhur to colonize Eldar, they found the Dark Jedi of Oriens Obscurum waiting for them. In Dark Jedi Tradition, then-Consul Halcyon Rokir Arconae declared a House Feud, placing Eldar as the prize for the winner.

After fierce fighting, Galeres proved stronger, taking the planet as their new home base.  The first Galerian base was disguised as a mining operation and it quickly hit pay day with the discovery of Garconian spice, found by Voranyen and Gavin d'Tana.  After some experimenting on Gavin's behalf, it was found that the spice was extremely potent on Humans and near Human species.  Further testing showed it had effects of euphoria and bliss on the Hutt species.  With the Dajorra's system location near Hutt Space, it became a simple effort of learning to mine and refine the abundant spice. As of now, the creation of the raw spice is unknown, and it is not yet been determined if it is natural or a product of some form of animal like the glitterstim mines on Kessel.

As the Galactic community has evolved and adapted in the face of new threats, like the Yuuzhan Vong, so to has House Galeres in light of a new age for the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Under the reigns of Summits such as Sanguinius Tscurya Entar and Juda Kodiak Erinos, and presently Celahir Erinos and Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, the Warrior House has begun to change its identity from that of being a "backroom/underworld organization", giving that title to its sister Qel-Droma, to more of a "combative" organization, going back to its roots. While House Galeres obviously cannot reveal their Force-Sensitivity to the galaxy at large, the House embraces its warrior origins through close integration with the Arcona Army Corps, particularly the Special Operations Command, and the running of Starscream Tactical Solutions, a PMC founded in 35 ABY that serves as the main cover for Galerians.

"Drive Out The Light, So That Darkness May Be Impervious"
―Motto of House Galeres

House Galeres is one of the two multi-Order Houses that make up Clan Arcona. As a breed apart from the rest of the Clan, and indeed the rest of the Brotherhood, brethren of Galeres spend their time not on arcane matters of the Force or the finer aspects of the Dark Side, but on the "physical" side of what it means to be a Dark Jedi. Boasting the two Battleteams Spectre Cell and Dark Forge and moving through the galaxy at large as Starscream Tactical Solutions, a Private Military Company, the Galerians are the veritable "heavy hitters" of Clan Arcona as masters of blade and blaster, always at the fore of any engagement.

Orders in Galeres

Sith

There was a time when the Sith in House Galeres would rather lose a limb than be separated from the cockpit of their snubfighters. That time has passed, and while they are still formidable pilots, the Sith of today have created a more profound and important role for themselves as strategists, tacticians, and ship commanders. While their skill with arms, particularly the lightsaber, is considerable, members of the Order much prefer to lean over a holo-grid and plan out the destruction of an enemy installation rather than lead a force and destroy it themselves. However, not all Sith are tacticians and some have reverted back to the roots of the first Sith-Imperial Empire, finding satisfaction in the armored suits of the Sith Warriors of old.

Obelisk

Obelisks play as crucial a role in the very structure of Galeres as both of the other orders. Whether serving within one of the elite Galerian Battleteams, or choosing to stay as a standard member, their tactical prowess and skill with a blade is second only to the most famous blademasters of Dark Side lore. Particularly, the Galerian Obelisks pride themselves on their strenuous physical training regimen, which is designed not only to improve fitness, but enhance hand-eye coordination, hand-to-hand combat, as well as magnify their skills with both melee and ranged weapons of various styles. While most serve as the military might of Galeres, some Obelisks have enhanced their minds enough to participate in House and Clan politics, proving that they are more than just the muscle-bound brutes that stereotype portrays them as.

Krath

A mixture of study and practical application defines the Krath of House Galeres, many of which serve as spies and assassins. No matter the specialization, their methods are held to the highest standard and it is not uncommon for them to be seen pioneering new techniques and tactics for the House, both in theory and in the field. Particularly, Galerian Krath are masters of disguise and manipulation, while also often representing their House in more “delicate” matters, such as political dealings with other Brotherhood units. Finally, it deserves to be mentioned that many of the more experienced Krath can be found taking part in Clan Arcona’s Master/Student Program, individually tutoring Journeymen in the early stages of their Dark Path.

History

Galeres was originally the Obelisk House of Arcona, and has always served as the Warrior House of the Clan. Consuls have foolishly closed the House in times of low activity, resulting in a drastic plummet of morale but in actuality, House Galeres has long been the sustaining heart of Arcona, producing many a skilled warrior and successful leader.

In the days before the Exodus, Galeres was housed on Coronada with the rest of the Clan, and were almost strictly Obelisk in nature. After the Exodus and the discovery of the Dajorra system, a base was quickly established on Sukhur, the harshest of the worlds. But on a planet of sifting glass seas and blistering heat, the dangers of the base soon outweighed the practicality of it. So they found the lush planet of Eldar. However, spies from the Clan's now-closed third House, Oriens Obscurum, relayed information back to the HOO Summit and when House Galeres left Sukhur to colonize Eldar, they found the Dark Jedi of Oriens Obscurum waiting for them. In Dark Jedi Tradition, then-Consul Halcyon Rokir Arconae declared a House Feud, placing Eldar as the prize for the winner.

After fierce fighting, Galeres proved stronger, taking the planet as their new home base. The first Galerian base was disguised as a mining operation and it quickly hit pay day with the discovery of Garconian spice, found by Voranyen and Gavin d'Tana. After some experimenting on Gavin's behalf, it was found that the spice was extremely potent on Humans and near Human species. Further testing showed it had effects of euphoria and bliss on the Hutt species. With the Dajorra's system location near Hutt Space, it became a simple effort of learning to mine and refine the abundant spice. As of now, the creation of the raw spice is unknown, and it is not yet been determined if it is natural or a product of some form of animal like the glitterstim mines on Kessel.

9th Great Jedi War

A great threat formed for Galeres in the form of a false Jedi Master Omancor Crask; uniting all of the Clans under the banner of the Brotherhood to fight this threat. Known to this date as the Ninth Great Jedi War, this war was brutal and members were lost as allies were gained. Though one sure thing came out of this conflict, and that was the dominance that was gained by the assistance of Galeres for the Shadow Clan. Proving their dominance in this the future looked promising for the Clan and House.

10th Great Jedi War

Once more a new threat rose from the ashes of time, coming forth was Michael Halcyon and House Odan-Urr. Galeres once more marched to war, this time assisting in the conflict by arriving at New Tython and assisting the Brotherhood fleet, upon doing so, the House was deployed planetside. Aiding in capturing key structures as well as engaging the Mandalorian forces on the battlefield. Throughout the conflict brutal fights were held, but the end result was to show that the Shadow Clan still dominated the Brotherhood with the help of Galeres.

Modern Day

As the Galactic community has evolved and adapted in the face of new threats, like the Yuuzhan Vong, so to has House Galeres in light of a new age for the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Under the reigns of Summits such as Celahir Erinos and Talos Erinos, and presently Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar and Cethgus Entar, the Warrior House has begun to change its identity from that of being a "backroom/underworld organization", giving that title to its sister Qel-Droma, to more of a "combative" organization, going back to its roots.

House Galeres has always prided itself on its individuality, its unwillingness to follow but rather its nature to lead. It was the first Obelisk House of the Brotherhood, and as such was something of a trend-setter in the times before the Exodus. In an effort to continue the House's individuality, the Summit implemented their own merit award system for their members when they felt that some action warranted something a bit more personal than the standardized and austere reward system of the Brotherhood.

Former Meritous Service Awards

Flight Wings (Blue Mist Squadron)

A piece of alumnabronze/duranium wings crafted in the shape of avian wings, the Blue Mist Flight Wings were awarded to only the best pilots in the formerly Elite Battleteam. Prior to the reabsorption of Blue Mist into the Arcona Starfighter Corps, the Wings had been pinned to four such pilots:

  • Jafits Skruum (revoked due to defection)
  • LCDR Tirano Yamayura
  • Dathka Zhar-Khon
  • CPT Talos Erinos

Canderous Hammer (Black Hammer Brigade)

Essentially a bludgeoning weapon fitted with a small gravity generator, the Canderous Hammer was awarded to members of the Black Hammer Brigade who had excelled in combat and proven their worth as an indispensable asset of Arcona's Heavy Assault Team. Before the Brigade was decommissioned, the Canderous Hammer had been awarded to the following troopers:

  • MAJ Juda Kodiak Erinos
  • CPT Talos Erinos
  • Jafits Skruum (revoked due to defection)

Soulfire Strike Team Awards

Kama of Proficiency

A protective garment worn around the back of the waist to protect the wearer’s legs from shrapnel – it is more ceremonial in nature than anything else, and was historically worn by the Thyrsus Sun Guard some Clone Commanders of the Grand Army of the Republic. This dark grey garment is worn around the back of the waist to protect the wearer’s upper legs and knees from shrapnel, debry, and other battlefield hazards.

Jaig Eyes

Originally a Mandalorian award for bravery, the Jaig Eyes are a pair of styilized jai’galaar eyes that are painted onto the helmet of a Mandalorian warriors’ armor. Soulfire mirrored this tradition and currently award the Jaig Eyes out to those commandos who have displayed particular acts of bravery and shows of skill and loyalty. While the standard color of the Jaig Eyes is red or blue, it is ultimtaely up to each commando who recieves the award.

Revenance Virtuom Award

Mask of Violence

A helmet that is normally awarded to those brave enough and worthy of such a decoration. This helmet, unlike most, covers the user’s head completely, encasing them into a mask of pure horror. The face it beholds is that of a mutilated unnatural figure, one that causes fear into most sentient beings. Being given the honour of this mask proves you are truly one of Revenance Virtuom’s best warriors. It has been awarded to one member so far:

  • Cethgus Entar


Logo Symbology

Galeres Logo
  • It's a "G" for Galeres
  • The curves and points, which bring violence to mind. Smooth arcs give a more peaceful feeling that doesn't really work for such an aggressive force. The curves used evoke blades, fire, danger in a glance.
  • Space: At the time, Galeres was heavy in Sith, and the impression of space combat was needed somewhat...this is where the 'black hole' feel comes in on the right side.
  • Identity marking. A house logo has to be able to fit within the medallions of a warbanner, as well as look good on a webpage, and at any resolution....therefore, going with a more simple and elegant design is favorable to going overly complex, where the subtleties would be lost, and the logo not immediately identifiable...which would negate the purpose.
