An artistic representation of the Rybanloth system.
Overview
The Rybanloth system was discovered by Grand Master Sarin in 26 ABY near the Subterrel sector in the Outer Rim Territories. The system is remote and sparsely populated, with four vastly different planets and nine moons. The Dark Council and its scholars have discovered that each of these worlds holds a connection to the Dark Side of the Force, unlike any other Brotherhood-held world besides Antei.
Seeking to cull the weak from his ranks and reward the strong, the Grand Master bestowed the system upon Clan Taldryan as the victor of the Rite of Supremacy: Second Darkness. Due to expected losses that came to be known as the Vong Incursion, Clan Taldryan could not begin settling the system for quite some time. The finest Krath scholars will be sent to investigate the nature of these worlds and how they relate to the Dark Side, and ultimately how they will help to bring about the Final Way in the near future after a few basic settlements and business assets are established. While the Clan is very invested in learning the Dark Side significance to the locations, establishing a fallback point and financial opportunities in these difficult times have come to be of highest priority.
Planets
Moons:
Shortly after the return of the Clan to the Kr'Tal System following the Vong Incursion, Consul Duga Taldrya Arkarso sent a large research team to the Rybanloth System to exam all its orbiting bodies. Consul Duga found Aris had absolutely no life due to a lack of atmosphere, but his tests also revealed that the planet secretly held many natural resources deep within. Upon learning this, Consul Duga sent two construction crews to Aris in an effort to create two independent colonies on the lifeless world. Upon the creation of the colonies, drilling commenced to reach the natural resources. Early drilling has shown that millennia ago the planet was teeming with both large and small organisms.
Moons:
Kalus shines as a unique uninhabitable world in the Rybanloth System. When Clan Taldryan researchers came to the planet they immediately noticed the remains of several orbital stations. Upon further investigation, the researchers discovered the planet was a source of many mineral resources that could be a valuable investment for the Clan. An orbital settlement for future development has been planned.
Moons:
- Arcalini
- Anuaras
- Damnatio
- Diruo
- Venor
Omus Massa holds no immediate priority in expansion of Clan Taldryan within the system. Some of its orbiting bodies may provide resource opportunities. A small team has set up a base on Sirus, a small Orbital Station. Further developments will come in the future.

Special Privileges
Sons of Taldryan as well as House Elders reserve the right to, at will, pay for and oversee the construction of personal villas on any planet of their choosing, though Sarmus is highly encouraged. Elders are entitled to pay for out of personal funds the construction of a single dwelling with no property rights other than the land immediately surrounding it, or choose an existing dwelling at no expense. Taldrya are given Grants of Land and a stipend to build and cultivate their holdings. On these grants, the Taldrya is the supreme word of law. All personal dwellings and grants will be devoid of personal defenses and security forces, with all Security provided by the House.
The Taldryan Security Service reserves the right to three exclusive resorts on Sarmus and the large swaths of land directly surrounding them for the private use of non-Jedi. The stress of extended service and the omniscient presence of their Dark Jedi overlords is understood by the powers that be, so they have created a retreat for Service personnel on Shore Leave, though personnel are not limited to these locations.
Taldryan Security Service Presence
The Taldryan Security Service maintains an active force in the Rybanloth System to ward off piracy and defend the House’s interests in the area. At any given time, a full Battlegroup or smaller force will be deployed within the system. Based from the Rybanloth System’s Fleet Station and Naval Dock on Jarri, the present forces will patrol the entire system. All ships are rotated back to Kr'Tal and replaced in due time.
