| == Lore ==
| | When Plagueis returned to Clanhood in 31 ABY, Karness Muur was elevated from a battleteam to full House status. In a somewhat controversial move, now Consul Montresor named the recent One Sith defector and then Overseer, [[Kz'set]], as it's first Quaestor. At this time it transferred it's base of operations from the “Harrower” to the newly acquired Nebula class Star Destroyer “Preeminence”. In order to train new recruits, the [[Apostles of Syn]] were created to carry on the proud traditions the Battleteam had started. |
| The name, [[starwars:Karness_Muur|Karness Muur]], came to Arden instinctively after hearing Alaris’ name for the counterpart Battleteam. Muur’s ability to strike fear into those he oppressed was innate. The Rakghoul plague drove entire populations to terror over millennia, and though the power to turn others into Rakghoul was out of reach of those in Plagueis, the symbolism of it weighed perfectly in Arden’s mind.
| |
| | |
| In addition, unbeknownst to Arden and the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, Karness Muur still existed during the Dark Brotherhood Era and for an additional hundred years after the creation of this Battleteam, existing in a hard fought battle with Celeste Morne through the use of his Talisman. The irony here is that Karness Muur still exists, exerting his will, as does House Plagueis, though neither party is aware of the other’s existence. | |

| One could safely say that one of the reasons the Brotherhood, and in particular Plagueis, was so devastated by the Horizon Crisis was the fact they were caught unaware. The enemy struck without warning with devastating force. Plagueis could not afford for this to happen again, particularly in its current state. Hence, the newly knighted Arden was tasked with assembling a team of individuals that specialized in information gathering and more subtle forms of war. BKM would be the eyes, ears, and when necessary “finger” of Plagueis. | | One could safely say that one of the reasons the Brotherhood, and in particular Plagueis, was so devastated by the Horizon Crisis was the fact they were caught unaware. The enemy struck without warning with devastating force. Plagueis could not afford for this to happen again, particularly in its current state. Therefore, the newly knighted Arden was tasked with assembling a team of individuals that specialized in information gathering and more subtle forms of war. HKM would be the eyes, ears, and when necessary “finger” of Plagueis. |
| | |
| Striking from the shadows, BKM can be everywhere and nowhere. These members are the ones the Quaestor calls upon if he wants to keep his hands clean. Be it Hacking, Recon, Assassination, Interrogation/Torture, Manipulation, Bribery or anything of that nature, the leaders of Plagueis can find those talents here.
| |
| | |
| Due to the nature of it’s operations, BKM tends to operate in two or three man teams in most circumstances. Smaller groups can be more stealthy by their very nature. However, missions requiring more force often call for multiple teams to be working as a cohesive unit on a given target. These teams are not necessarily fixed as different skills might be needed for specific objectives.
| |
| | |
| == Base Of Operations - BAC ''Harrower'' ==
| |
| Due to not having a permanent, land-bound Headquarters, the Sith and his Executive Officer immediately worked out a plan to transform the Bothan Assault Cruiser into a mobile Command Base. While it had enough food supplies for two standard years, it lacked some critical components to make it a base, such as training facilities and the armory. Due to it being a purely militaristic vessel before then, it was not setup for long-term living. Two of the suites were immediately cleared out and set up for [[Arden Karn|Arden]] and the Assassin while the original three suites remained for the Quaestor, Aedile and Rollmaster’s visits.
| |
| | |
| Rather than having individual rooms for all of the other Officers and Grunts, the regular military were moved to where eight to ten of them shared each of the rooms, which had been a waste of precious living space. The Officers themselves were shifted until they were two persons to a room. The mainly accessible parts of the ship is in sections, each divided up into several decks, and can be accessed by lifts throughout the ''Harrower'' in that area of the vessel. Due to security concerns, however, each deck is unspecified.
| |
| | |
| === Bridge ‘Level’ ===
| |
| The Bridge Level contains the Bridge, Quaestor’s Suite, Aedile’s Quarters, Rollmaster’s Quarters, Commander’s Suite, Lieutenant Commander’s Suite, the Communications Centre, War Room, Pilot Ready-Room, Medical Bay and Officers Quarters.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== Bridge ====
| | Striking from the shadows, HKM can be everywhere and nowhere. These members are the ones the Consul calls upon if he wants to keep his hands clean. Be it Hacking, Recon, Assassination, Interrogation/Torture, Manipulation, Bribery, or anything of a similar nature, the leaders of Plagueis can find those talents in HKM. |
| The Bridge is a large area where the Captain that had long been the highest commander on the ship once held the reins. Now, however, Captain Grant, a cold female Hapan can be seen still walking the higher area, though her orders are only a repeat of what her Dark Jedi masters command, specifically the Commander. Unlike smaller vessels, the navicomputer is manned by three of these naval soldiers. Dozens of information consoles line either side, as well as a communications area for when dealing with approaching ships and planet-side landings.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== Quaestor’s Suite ====
| | Due to the nature of its operations, HKM tends to operate in two or three man teams in most circumstances. Smaller groups can be more stealthy by their very nature. However, missions requiring more force often call for multiple teams to be working as a cohesive unit on a given target. These teams are not necessarily fixed as different skills might be needed for specific objectives. |
| For it was expected of Plagueis’ leader to visit at times, the Quaestor had the most lavishly decorated apartment in the entire ship, containing standard sleeping chambers with elegant furnishings, a large sonic-shower, a reception area and a dark, hardwood desk with the sigil of Plagueis fire-etched into the wood and lined with silver, making it stand in stark contrast to the grain of the piece. Currently behind the desk is the personal warbanner of Tra’an Reith. The apartment also connects to the Aedile and Rollmaster’s Quarters, only connected to the Exarch’s genetic signature. When the Summit visits the ''Harrower'', five of the SD-10 Battle Droids are assigned as their Honour Guard.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== Aedile/Rollmaster Quarters ====
| | As a part of the change in status from a battleteam to a House, Karness Muur has had to adapt its methods tactics. It now operates heavier forces than it did during its time as a battleteam, allowing it to perform a wider variety of missions than it did before. While its leaders still look to its roots and value stealth and guile, it can now pack a potent punch with its compliment of armored units. |
| Though not as lavish nor as large as the Quaestor’s Suite, the Aedile’s Quarters contain decorations of a casual elegance with the sigil of Plagueis throughout the room itself. As the Aedile and Rollmaster would spend a lot of time around their Quaestor if they were to visit, it makes sense that they have only sleeping quarters and not the ostentatious apartment of his/her direct superior. The Quarters of the Rollmaster are nearly identical to that of the Aedile, the only difference being their personal Warbanners.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== Commander’s Suite ==== | | == Base Of Operations - Korada Monastery == |
| Unlike those of the Quaestor, [[Arden Karn|Knight Karn]] chose a simple, yet elegantly furnished sleeping quarters, though it was insisted upon that he at least take the smaller suite. It bears his trophies and varied medals, as well as [[Arden Karn|Arden’s]] personal Warbanner. Within a case is his weapons and the armor designed by his [[Celevon Edraven|XO]] for whenever they go on assignment. An office is attached to the Commander’s Suite. The title of Commander is merely honorary due to his position and does not reflect the Sith’s actual level of military rank.
| | [[Korada Monastery]] is the main base of operations for [[House Karness Muur]] on the surface of [[Aliso]] located about 330 km west-north-west from [[The Pinnacle]]. Once an ancient temple or palace of an unknown species, it more recently was used by the monks of the [[starwars:B%27omarr_Order| B’oamarr Order]]. It now serves as a formidable fortress and source of mystery. Most recently it was discovered by [[Arden Karn]] and [[Abadeer Taasii]] in recent scouting missions. The leaders of [[House Karness Muur]] were sent on mission by the [[Plagueis]] Summit, to find a suitable base of operations on the planet, that would also help secure the Clan's hold on [[Aliso]]. |
|
| |
|
| ==== Lieutenant Commander’s Suite ==== | | == Summit Chronology == |
| The Executive Officer’s Suite is slightly larger than that of the Commander, mostly because the Templar didn’t argue when they told him: “As a High-Ranked Officer, you get a suite.” The office is has a theme of silver and dark blue hues, with standard sleeping quarters. The Assassin’s trophies and medals, including the past armor sets, adorn varied stands and plaques. Like that of his superior, Celevon has a clear case that bears his weapons and armor when not worn. As with the Sith, the title of Lieutenant Commander is merely an honorary rank to his position and does not reflect his actual military rank, though one of the sets of armor bears the Arconan Army Corps insignia of Captain on the upper right arm.
| | {{Clear}} |
| | |
| ==== Communications Centre ====
| |
| The Communications Centre is a room full of panels, screens, varied terminals and a multitude of electronic equipment that’s EMP shielded. Lieutenant [[Xathia|Xathia Edraven Erinos]] can often be found in this room with her team of experts, though the [[Krath]] herself freely admits to being mostly skilled as a Hacker.
| |
| | |
| ==== War Room ====
| |
| The War Room is the area where the highest Leaders operate from when not in the Bridge. It contains a large table where a holograph of the battle arena can be pulled up and shows the real-time action, where the commanders of every unit not in the field can remotely order their forces to a certain, exact area. As this area can be sealed off from any attempts at listening in, it is perfect for Classified discussions, including meetings held with the Plagueian Summit, where holograms of the members will appear if they cannot travel to the ‘’Harrower’’ for whatever reason.
| |
| | |
| ==== Pilot Ready-Room ====
| |
| The Pilot Ready-Room is an averaged sized assembly area with interactive, holographic maps, dozens of boards and the information that both squadrons of fighters need to accomplish their missions. Unlike the Ground Troop Ready Room, the Pilot Ready Room can hold all of the members of all four (Harpoon, Javelin, Voulge and Rapier) squadrons of fighter pilots, due to the significantly less number of people than the regular Ground Forces.
| |
| | |
| ==== Medical Bay ====
| |
| The Medical Bay area contains state-of-the-art equipment needed to heal all forces contained within BAC ''Harrower'', including a small section dedicated to cybernetic replacements for lost limbs. Bacta tanks, sick beds and an entire cordoned off wall where a droid (Z8-D4) retrieves the medication needed for their forces. The Force Users are rarely seen in this area, due to their ability to heal themselves. Only the worst cases end up here, as Force Users cannot heal lost limbs or severe wounds.
| |
| | |
| === Training ‘Level’ ===
| |
| The Second (Training) Level contains four separate training areas: one for Lightsaber Combat, one for Ranged Training, one for Melee Training and a final one meant for Hand-To-Hand Training. Beyond the training facilities, it also hosts the areas where the varied military assets can hone their tactical and strategic skills, the GT (Ground Troop) Ready-Room, as well as the General Quarters for the rest of the Crew.
| |
| | |
| ==== Training Facilities ====
| |
| There are four training facilities, separated for a certain style of combat: Lightsaber training, Ranged training (Firing Range), Melee training and Hand-To-Hand training. They are separate so that a specific thing can be taught in those areas and for safety issues. The only time a mundane (Non-Force User) will be seen in the lightsaber training area is if he or she is searching for one of the Dark Jedi.
| |
| | |
| ==== GT Ready-Room ====
| |
| Similar in concept to the Pilot Ready-Room, the Ground Troop (GT) Ready Room is a large briefing area for the leaders and sub-leaders of each individual military unit of the Ground Forces. Numerous boards, maps and generally everything needed to give the units the information needed for any mission litters this large room.
| |
| | |
| === Battle ‘Level’ ===
| |
| The Third (Battle) Level is restricted to the crew trained for Space Combat, which contains a large portion of the ammunition and supplies. For every operational turret and cannon, there is a two-person team operating the terminals to control it.
| |
| | |
| === Maintenance ‘Level’ ===
| |
| The Fourth (Maintenance) Level contains the Engine Room, some crew Quarters for those who kept the vessel in top-notch condition and the Armory, which required a message from both the Commander and Lieutenant Commander to get certain equipment unless it was an emergency situation.
| |
| | |
| ==== Armory ====
| |
| Located in the aft section of the ''Harrower'', the Master-at-Arms stands behind a shielded enclosure. In order to procure arms, one must have pre-sent approval from both the Commander and Executive Officer to the Master-at-Arms in the form of holo-communications. The actual armory proper is behind the high security door behind the Master-at-Arms,who then fetches the equipment. The role for the moment is performed by a male Snivvian named Kritch who is also known for procuring all sorts of unique items and erotic entertainment.
| |
| | |
| === Hangar ‘Level’ ===
| |
| The Fifth (Hangar) Level is a short corridor leading to the large Hangar Bay, containing what few personal ships remained from those who had joined [[Arden Karn|the Commander]] and [[Celevon Edraven|the Assassin]] on their journey to new territories. Aside from that, it held the two Squadrons of X and Y-Wings, Rapier and Voulge respectively, as well as two Squadrons of HLAF-500s, called Harpoon and Javelin, always primed and ready for their pilots.

In fact, some members of the team hold the droids in higher regard than the organics under them.

Karness Muur is a House within Clan Plagueis developed by Arden Karn and Celevon Edraven after the Horizons Crisis in 30 ABY. Originally created as a Battleteam, Karness Muur became one of Plagueis' two Houses following the return to Clanhood. It was dissolved by decree, as issued by the incumbent Dread Lord Ronovi Tavisaen, in 37 ABY.
History
After the Horizons Crisis and the concurrent massive attack on their fleet and home system, House Plagueis was left near total defeat. In a controversial decision, Quaestor Reith used the charges from orbit to destroy every Plagueian stronghold and temple in the Jusadih System, due to their being overrun with the enemy. With much of their forces destroyed, Plagueis had to turn to other tactics in order to rebuild. Brute force, while still useful, was not going to be as viable an option with the house in its weakened state. Realizing this, Tra'an Reith concluded that a new battle team had to be formed, specializing in asymmetrical warfare.
To lead this team, Tra’an turned to Arden Karn. Arden had garnered a reputation during the Horizon Crisis for creative thinking and courage under fire. He had also had a past record of being a top notch sniper, scout, and slicer before coming to the Brotherhood. All these qualities made him a natural choice to lead a team dedicated to stealth and subterfuge. He began gathering others in Plagueis that had similar talents.
The first of these to be approached was a transfer from Clan Arcona during the beginning of the Horizons Crisis named Celevon Edraven. The assassin was recognized for his ambitious nature in his early career in the Brotherhood, having been chosen as an Apprentice by Elder Sashar Erinos within days of joining. He had flourished under the Mandalorian’s teachings, taking on the position of sniper in the Soulfire Strike Team. Prior to joining the Brotherhood, the amnesiac took on numerous assassination contracts and had experience smuggling weapons, not counting advanced military training during his teenage years and further training during his time in Soulfire and as Captain of Spectre Cell, as well as time served in the Arcona Army Corps.
Together they would form the nucleus on which a strong battle team would be founded. They would be instrumental in the rebuilding of Plagueis, participating in several early operations.
When Plagueis returned to Clanhood in 31 ABY, Karness Muur was elevated from a battleteam to full House status. In a somewhat controversial move, now Consul Montresor named the recent One Sith defector and then Overseer, Kz'set, as it's first Quaestor. At this time it transferred it's base of operations from the “Harrower” to the newly acquired Nebula class Star Destroyer “Preeminence”. In order to train new recruits, the Apostles of Syn were created to carry on the proud traditions the Battleteam had started.
Unit Speciality
One could safely say that one of the reasons the Brotherhood, and in particular Plagueis, was so devastated by the Horizon Crisis was the fact they were caught unaware. The enemy struck without warning with devastating force. Plagueis could not afford for this to happen again, particularly in its current state. Therefore, the newly knighted Arden was tasked with assembling a team of individuals that specialized in information gathering and more subtle forms of war. HKM would be the eyes, ears, and when necessary “finger” of Plagueis.
Striking from the shadows, HKM can be everywhere and nowhere. These members are the ones the Consul calls upon if he wants to keep his hands clean. Be it Hacking, Recon, Assassination, Interrogation/Torture, Manipulation, Bribery, or anything of a similar nature, the leaders of Plagueis can find those talents in HKM.
Due to the nature of its operations, HKM tends to operate in two or three man teams in most circumstances. Smaller groups can be more stealthy by their very nature. However, missions requiring more force often call for multiple teams to be working as a cohesive unit on a given target. These teams are not necessarily fixed as different skills might be needed for specific objectives.

It now operates heavier forces than it did during its time as a battleteam, allowing it to perform a wider variety of missions than it did before. While its leaders still look to its roots and value stealth and guile, it can now pack a potent punch with its compliment of armored units.
Base Of Operations - Korada Monastery
Korada Monastery is the main base of operations for House Karness Muur on the surface of Aliso located about 330 km west-north-west from The Pinnacle. Once an ancient temple or palace of an unknown species, it more recently was used by the monks of the B’oamarr Order. It now serves as a formidable fortress and source of mystery. Most recently it was discovered by Arden Karn and Abadeer Taasii in recent scouting missions. The leaders of House Karness Muur were sent on mission by the Plagueis Summit, to find a suitable base of operations on the planet, that would also help secure the Clan's hold on Aliso.
