Character History

Xantros was born and raised in a rich family, living on one of the orbital stations over planet Duro. His childhood was rather a calm one, until the time, when his family disappeared suddenly, leaving him alone. It happened when he was twelve years old. Since then, he was forced to take care of him on his own. In addition, a desire of traveling was awaken in his soul at that time.


Teenage times

Xantros was gifted student, who learned quickly, so he graduated from the school with ease, despite the difficult conditions, he lived in. Most of his free time, during that period, he spent on discovering secrets of the station he lived in, and of the stations nearby. He was very disappointed, when he discovered that all of them were almost identical.

When he graduated from the school at the age of eighteen, he was allowed to leave the station. He sold all possessions of his family, except a necklace inherited from his mother when he was five years old. It was told to be in his family for five hundred years. Each generation told its story to their descendants. In the future, it was one of the stories Xantros told to earn money for living. Then, he left the station for good and was never to return there.


Time of travels

In a period of several years before he joined the Hammer’s Fist, he had visited many different worlds, looking for his family, expanding his knowledge and traveling all over the Galaxy. He was a kind of a free spirit and enjoyed his freedom; not forced to stay in one place, but able to travel wherever he wished to.

At the beginning, most visits on new planets were similar. Xantros arrived at a starport and passed through customs. Sometimes, he was asked about the reason of his stay. Many custom officers did not believe him and looked at him in a strange way when he replied that he was going to tell some stories and to listen to new ones, so he could tell them when he would return to previously visited planets. Then, he spent some time in pubs and on public squares, where he could tell the stories, earn some money and gain publicity.

Thanks to that he was soon noticed by local business class and important figures. He was hired to entertain their families, friends and guests during banquets and other official parties. He was also very often asked to write speeches and work over biographies or family histories of important figures. He worked over advertisements for cities and regions as well. He usually spent several months on one planet.

Thanks to all these things, he established connections to local figures and wealthy people. He also managed to earn a small fortune. That was enough for living for some time. However, he enjoyed his job and continued his travels. From time to time, he was invited to visit some planets again. During such visits he told new stories and was treated as a special guest. He was offered apartments in the best hotels and a salary, but also was given gifts like good alcohol, clothes and jewelery.


Hammer’s Fist

After many years, he decided to join Elite Stormtrooper Legion, Hammer’s Fist. He found it as an opportunity to have great adventures and to learn new things. He knew it would be also great source of information for many stories to be told, when he would retire from active service. In addition to that, he found that the ideals and policy of the Empire were more reasonable and just than the ones of the New Republic. Also, deep beneath his consciousness he was a warrior. That was why he chose to enlist to the Imperial Army. Hammer’s Fist was ideal.

After completion of basic Stormtrooper training, he was assigned to the Vengeance Detachment. He steadily advanced in ranks. After some time he was assigned to the position of Team Leader in Vengeance. Some time later, he was named Vengeance Detachment Commander and then, Vendetta Detachment Commander. He served on these two positions for over a year. Then, he resigned from active service in the Legion. During this time he participated in several large-scale Operations.


Emperor’s Hammer Dark Brotherhood

Not very long before his resignation from the service in the Hammer’s Fist, he discovered a talent to use the Force. He joined the Emperor’s Hammer Dark Brotherhood and quickly passed core exams. He was assigned to Alatus Phyle, House Dominatus, Clan Alvaak. Several months later, he was appointed to the position of Phyle’s Tetrach. Unfortunately, the Clan, he belonged to, was closed and Xantros was transferred to Prophecy Phyle, House Qel-Droma, Clan Arcona. However, he was soon chosen to replace its previous Tetrarch. Later, he steadily advance in ranks, as he served in the command position of Prophecy Phyle and then, of Dark Orb Phyle.

After several months, in recognition of his experience and dedication, he was assigned to the position of House Qel-Droma Quaestor and elevated to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. In this way, he joined the noble group of Equites. His service as the Quaestor (and than as a Dux) lasted for almost two years, when he stepped down from this position. During that time, he managed to make Qel-Droma a stable unit. After a year of service, he was promoted to the rank of Krath Priest, as he turned out to be solid and dedicated leader who survived three Consuls in this position. In the last five months of leadership service, he was not really a Quaestor, but Dux of Maelstrom Hetaeria. The position was, however, equivalent to the Quaestor.

In May 26 ABY, Xantros completely resigned from service as a leader and two months later, he decided to leave the Dark Brotherhood for some time. He found out that he was not able to continue his service to the Dark Brotherhood. His zeal was vanished. He was in need to search for himself. The journey took him three and a half of a month, but was definitely fruitful and successful one. He not only regained the spirit and will to serve the Empire and the Dark Brotherhood, but accompanied by his old friend and form Consul, he found a hidden planet, called Dark Sanctuary. The planet was a location of secret base of three ancient Dark Jedi who developed Force powers called the Words of Power.

After the return, Xantros chose Taranis Hetaeria as his new home. It was partially because he was reluctant to return to people, he somehow failed as a leader. The second reason was the fact that his friend, who helped him find the Dark Sanctuary was a member of Taranis. Joined together, they made a lot of efforts to convince the leadership of the unit to accept new Force powers, but they finally managed to do so.

In early 27 ABY, there was another restructure. Xantros, as all other Dark Jedi, was assigned to House Drakonan, but refused any command position. He justified it with his will to serve the Dark Brotherhood as a rank member. He believed it would be the best way to be of service to other Dark Jedi. As a Krath, Xantros was assigned to the Dark Wizards Phyle, which was later renamed to Dark Prophets Phyle.


Fall of the Dark Brotherhood

However, no matter of his efforts, the Dark Brotherhood was slowly decaying and it was in the final stage of its fall. Xantros saw its members dying one by one and finally, he realized that there was no Dark Brotherhood to serve. There were only few former members of the Dark Brotherhood still to remember its former glory. It was the end of the Dark Brotherhood. Xantros could only regret that he was not able to fight the New Republic in the way he used to. He grieved due to the fall of the Dark Brotherhood, but he did not give up. He continued his fight against the New Republic.


Interrim

Though there was no Dark Brotherhood, Xantros remained a Dark Jedi. His knowledge and powers were intact. He was determined to continue his crusade against the New Republic. It had to fall, so the Empire could once again rule the Galaxy. He believed that only the iron grasp of Imperial military could maintain the peace and wealthyn in the Galaxy.

Xantros had a long-term plan and abilities to carry his plan on. The former Krath Priest gathered almost three hundreds of mercenaries and pilots in one group, called Dark Ravens. The group worked under Xantros’ leadership for almost six years and became a serious threat for the New Republic weakened and ruined by the war against Yuuzhan Vong. Dark Ravens were able to deal several serious blows to the New Republic and later to the Galactic Alliance.


Dark Brotherhood

It was 33 ABY, when Xantros met Dante in one of casinos on Alassa Major. Dante informed him that there was another Dark Brotherhood, the one which had been referred as Dark Jedi Brotherhood in the past, still out there. It had numerous members and was much stronger than the Emperor’s Hammer Dark Brotherhood that Xantros could remember.

Recruited by Dante, Xantros agreed to undergo probationary period that was going to be a test to prove if Xantros was ready to regain the rank of Krath Priest. Assigned to the House Dorimad Sol in Clan Arcona, Xantros quickly advanced in ranks, in less than six months becoming a Dark Jedi Knight. As a Protector, Xantros was assigned as the Sith Flight Leader of the Battleteam Blades of Chaos. However, soon after his promotion to the rank of Guardian, Clan Scholae Palatinae, like all other clans, was downsized, due to an AWOL check, and transformed into Independent House Scholae Palatinae. Xantros was transferred from Blades of Chaos to Battleteam Dorimad Sol, named after one of Clan’s Houses, where he continued his service to the Dark Brotherhood.


The Knighthood

Months of hard work and dedicated service brought the result, Xantros always dreamed about. In early days of 34 ABY, as soon as he met the obligatory requirements and constructed his own lightsaber, he was promoted to the honourable rank of the Dark Jedi Knight. He finally became fully-trained Dark Jedi, prepared for the challenges the Knight had to face.

Xantros achieved his goal, but it was not the end of his work. Several weeks later, he was entrusted with the position of the Sith Commander of the Battleteam Caliburnus. It was a fairly new challenge to the Dark Jedi Knight. Still, he hoped to perform his new duties well. There are multiple projects for the Battleteam that Xantros takes care of. His goal now is to make Caliburnus one of the best Battleteams of the Dark Brotherhood.


Personality and traits

Xantros was amazingly brave as for a Duro. He was also very honorable and proud. He was recognized by many as a loyal friend, though it was very hard to become his friend. Still, when someone earned his friendship, Xantros was ready to sacrifice his life for that person.

Xantros was always hungry of knowledge and he used any opportunity to learn. On the other hand, it made him be sometimes harsh. He expected that other people would value knowledge and wisdom like he did. If someone ignored necessary knowledge or behaved like a fool, Xantros tended to point that out, often in harsh way and no matter of dignity and rank of his interlocutor.

However, he was usually kind and well-mannered person. He used force only, when it was absolutely necessary, preferring to find more subtle ways of dealing with problems and enemies. He called his philosophy “Way of Wise Warrior”, as he always tried to avoid unnecessary risk.

Xantros usually deeply analyzed situations before making a decision. It made him valued adviser to anyone who wished to listen to his words. However, when he lacked time to think, he heavily relied on his feelings and made only draft plans.

Though Xantros was a Duro, he managed to overcome characteristic to his race limits in fighting. He still finds it a bit harder to learn new fighting styles, but no longer hesitates to fight, if it is necessary.
