"The Krath seek knowledge. Many say knowledge is power. The Obelisk seek to perfect themselves physically. A strong body is a physical manifestation of power. Everyone seeks power. Only the Sith follow the pure path."

―Nikola Valtiere

Character History

Birth and Childhood

Nikola was born to a pair of spacers that made their living undertaking long-freight work. He was born and raised on the freighter for four years, clambering about heating ducts and storage containers like his own personal playground.

His childhood died when the Sith of Arcona fell upon the freighter, slaughtering his parents. Before they killed the defenceless child, they found whispers in the force. An undeveloped talent. They decided to take him, spiriting him away into the brotherhood, to become a dark Jedi.

Ascendancy

Nikola was trained during a turbulent time of Arcona history. The Scholae Palatinae had suffered at the hands of the star chamber, and a new house had formed, a parasite hanging off of Arcona.

Nikola learnt the basics, taking his first steps on the dark path. He learnt quickly, memories of his former life buried under a plethora of new teachings.

But his past always called to him. No matter how much he learnt, he was drawn to space. The great void, cold and silent. The intricacies of space combat always enthralled Valtiere, the great distances of the titanic combat between capital ships, over hundreds of Kilometres, while starfighters danced in these relatively tiny gaps.

Nikola was moved around flight teams, his prowess the only thing keeping him from being kicked out from starfighter combat all together, as in his early years, he was nothing but a ball of seething rage, the dark side flowing through his body, heightening his darkest emotions.

Over time, however, Nikola learnt control.

Horizons

When the Horizon plague ravaged the Brotherhood, Valtiere was one of the first brought low. He suffered a wound at the hands of his master as the force fled him, leading to his eye requiring replacement. Valtiere regressed to a mindless animal, driven wild by his power being taken from him, destroying the medical bay he was rushed to. He had truly believed his master had somehow stolen his power to supplement himself. It took two higher level dark Jedi to subdue the beast. However, Nadrin Erinos Arconae, who also fell foul of the disease, convinced his student that it had been an Entar plot by Timeros Caesus Entar Arconae to take down the Erinos, freeing him while on a sandspeeder.

Before the two could act, the cure was found, and power restored to the journeyman. After that day, he developed a respect for his master, who had shown the ability to turn situations to his favour and gain power.

Personality

Nikola is somewhat Dour in life, responding as minimally as possible to enquiries, and sometimes being a little brusque.

He finds joy in history and tactics, comfortable as a distant viewer in command. In war, he is cold fury, a directed hatred for the enemy.

Nikola also has a fixation on prosthetics. The power offered by limbs of durasteel has an irrisistable draw for the Dark Jedi.

Appearence

Nikola is imposingly tall, towering above his contemporaries. Thin and lithe, Nikola moves with the light gait of an individual used to moving in low gravity. With a shock of dark brown hair marred only by a splash of white at the left temple. His pale skin is only marked by a twisting scar arcoss his left eye, the legacy of previous combat. His lower legs are prosthetic, a sacrifice made for space combat, reducing the effect of high G-forces on Nikola. Following the Horizon event, Nikola had a cybernetic eye implanted, due to a blow to the head from a brick hurled by his master, Nadrin Erinos Arconae.
