"... As long as I draw breath, Naga Sadow lives. As long as I hold this sword, Naga Sadow's strength endures. As long as we remain ever vigilant, Clan Naga Sadow will never fall! Long live the Heirs to the Empire..."
Astronicus Aurelius Sadow

Naga Sadow is the body of Sons, Daughters and Disciples who serve Astronicus Aurelius Sadow, the heir of the Sadow dynasty and Overlord of the Clan. The Disciples of Sadow have reorganized several times between a House or Clan of the Dark Brotherhood but in 33 ABY, the cults of Marka Ragnos and Ludo Kressh were united once more when the Sadow dynasty reaffirmed its singular rule as a House; since then the Disciples have continued under Astronicus' rule as a Clan operating behind the guise of the Dlarit Corporation. In the years surrounding Exodus, the Clan's followers also adopted the teachings of Urias Orian in addition to those of its three originating cults of disciples; recently however the Disciples of Sadow maintain a more imperialistic doctrine focusing on the revival of the true Sith Empire.

Brief history

Main articles: Astronicus Era History and New Sadow Era History

The House began when Astronicus Dlarit was visited by a ghost who inspired him to gather rogue Dark Jedi to his banner. Tron did this, bringing together a ragtag group from various backgrounds at his home on Sif, of which he was then the governor. The spirit then revealed itself to be Naga Sadow and Tron sought out the lost tribes of Ludo Kressh and Marka Ragnos, together forming the alliance known as Clan Naga Sadow.

For a time the Clan operated peacefully under the guise of the Dlarit Corporation until the betrayal of the Imperial Remnant and the ensuing Exodus. Led by the visions of Urias Orian as discerned by Trevarus Caerick through his Amulet, the Clan relocated to the lost Orian system and adopted many of the forgotten teachings found there. The Clan and Corporation then prospered for several years until the invasion of the galaxy by the Yuuzhan Vong and the five years of warfare that followed.

The Yuuzhan Vong War took its toll and the Clan lost much, not just journeymen but even among its greatest elders; some fell in battle, but many more were lost in spirit. During the war Orian became something of a haven for refugees and its cities bulged at the walls to support them, but they helped maintain the armed forces in the face of the many threats the system faced over the years. Even with the Vong Empire defeated, the Orian Sector remains a particularly dangerous location.

As the Clan looked to the future, it worked to strengthen itself should anything like the Yuuzhan Vong War happen again. To this end the recruit-based Dlarit Security Force was slowly replaced with a loyal clone army in the form of the Special Operations Group. Having weathered the Vong, the Clan believed it could survive anything and returned to working towards the reestablishment of the true Sith Empire, as led by the Sadow dynasty as the heirs to the last true emperor. To this end, the House of Sadow returned from the shadows, bringing all its disciples under one banner for the first time in nearly two decades as House Naga Sadow. While the cults of Dakhan, Goluud, Kressh and Ragnos remain, Clan Naga Sadow continues to weather whatever is thrown their way and look toward the future with their Overlord's vision of one, united Sadow Empire.

Government and Politics

While Naga Sadow has often changed its standing within the Dark Brotherhood, its policies and politics themselves have been much less fluid. Historically perceived as a Corporatocracy, the Disciples of Sadow have long shown their dominance under the guise of the Dlarit Corporation. While this veil is widely perceived, it is only in part a truth as the difference between a strong Corporation and a powerful Empire is hard to spot, especially when Corporations themselves are often perceived as empires.

Behind all of the Corporate facade, Naga Sadow is lead by a Conclave or Council of capable leaders; these same people amongst the most devout of the Disciples, the "blessing" of the Dark Council given for their appointment but above all else, the installation of these councilors has been appointed by Lord Astronicus Sadow himself or by extension through the Corporation's President. The President themselves are supported by a Vice-president and various Directors, though these positions themselves are mostly formalities and an administrative aide typically operates to ensure the Corporation proper continues to strive without interference from the Disciples of Sadow.

Politically, the Disciples of Sadow respect and follow the guidance of the Dark Brotherhood's Council; though this allegiance seems to be strong, as the heirs to the Sith Empire, it remains to be seen if this is a permanent alliance. They also often find themselves at odds with the other units within the Dark Brotherhood, none moreso than the heretics of Scholae Palatinae who believe themselves to be the true heirs to the Empire. Outside of Brotherhood space, the Disciples of Sadow have a political and corporate connection to the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, or Galactic Alliance. Politically, the Galactic Alliance honours a Legate from the Dlarit Corporation and this representative ensures that the Alliance does not ask any questions further than the Corporation's business activities.

Strategic Hazard Assessment Division and Operational Warfare

Main article: [[SHADOW|SHADOW]]

The Strategic Hazard Assessment Division and Operational Warfare agency, more commonly known as SHADOW, is a black operations unit within Naga Sadow comprising the whole of the Disciples of Marka Ragnos. This unit was created in 36 ABY to ensure the continued protection of Naga Sadow from external threats through the collection of intelligence and a highly advanced cyberwarfare defense, a system which has kept them prepared following the Horizon outbreak. Due to its inception and operation as a covert operations division, the whole of the Disciples of Ragnos are inducted as Agents of SHADOW; each tasked in same form with furthering the Sadow Empire through their Black Operations. Besides the Disciples of Ragnos, there are non-Force sensitives within SHADOW who have obtained the title of Agent, although most of these operate as spies and advanced reconnaissance for their masters.

Society and Culture

Explain the rough society and culture of Naga Sadow, how ranks interact with each other, etc, etc, etc

The Disciples of Sadow have a long standing history within the Dark Brotherhood which is full of various cultural backgrounds which have all united in pursuit of the vision of a restored Sith Empire. Nowhere is this more seen than in the fact that four different societies of varied Disciples have joined the banner of the Sadow dynasty: Ludo Kressh, Marka Ragnos, Primus Goluud and Shar Dakhan. While each of these societies have operated differently and each still retained their own identity, each fought bravely for the glory of the Sadow Empire.

Amongst the Disciples, loyalty to the the dynasty is lauded above all else. Those honoured enough to bear the name of Sadow such as the Sons and Daughters rewarded by Astronicus' hand, are amongst the most revered of the Disciples themselves; only those appointed to the Summit of Naga Sadow by the Overlord's will are considered the absolute pinnacle of the Imperial vision. Aside from the honoured Summit and Sadow, the Disciples typically maintain equal footing amongst each other, either as Operators or Agents of the Sadow Empire; each a formidable cog within the Overlord's vision towards a renewed supremacy of the Galaxy.

Astrography

Main article: [[Orian system|Orian system]]

The Orian system is a 7-planet system, located on the outskirts of Sith Space in the Outer Rim, which was discovered by the Sith Lord Urias Orian over five millenia ago. It is located in the Esstran Sector at the "northern" end of the Trans-Hydian Borderlands between the two Super-hyperroutes: the Hydian Way and Perlemian Trade Route. Orian rests on the "northern" outskirts of the Stygian Caldera, the large nebulosity that encircles the worlds of the original Sith Empire. It is not far from the Listehol Run, which connects with the Shaltin Tunnels, therefore placing the entire system within trading distance of the Corporate Sector where the Dlarit Corporation regularly does business. It is a unique binary system consisting of a red giant, Orian Major, and a yellow dwarf, Orian Minor. While being a binary system is not overly unique in and of itself, the fact that the companion star orbits its host nimbly between the system's Astroid belt of Dentavii and its sixth planet of Tarthos without destroying the system is rather astonishing, though this also provides severe climate distortions throughout the system. Understandably, due to the orbital patterns of the stars and the various astral bodies within the system, a standard passage of day and night are nearly impossible to adjust to and have been quoted as "irritable and erratic" by many individuals accustomed to the system.

Historically Orian was abandoned following the Great Hyperspace War and its location became difficult to ascertain until the arrival of Urias Orian and subsequently the Disciples of Sadow; however its location near the Hydian Way and the Orian Pipeline itself has found an increase in traffic since the Yuuzhan Vong War when refugees began to overwhelm the system. As such Orian and its surrounding Hyperspace routes are heavily patrolled by the Dlarit Naval Command under the authority of the Special Operations Group and Corporation who publicly maintain control over the entire system to ensure the security of both the civilian population and its true masters.

Major Locations

Sepros

New Sadow Palace, the Sadowan Headquarters
Main article: [[Sepros|Sepros]]

Sepros is the true Capital of the Disciples of Sadow, their main base of operations in the New Sadow Palace. Its a heavily forested world covered in trees very similar to the great Wroshyr trees of Kashyyyk and suffers from torrential rainfall and extreme humidity as a result. Similarly to Kashyyyk, the planet's surface rarely has the light of Orian's twin stars falling upon it and such as a "shadow lands" which often serve as home and breeding grounds to the many hostile creatures of Sepros, both native and those imported long ago by the Sith Lord Orian. While the planet itself is quite unruly and often chaotic from the extremely heavy saturation of Dark Side energies, it does often maintain a presence of Dlarit officers in addition to many esoteric scholars seeking enlightenment into the history of the Sith; while the latter are often from the Brotherhood itself those who aren't just as often find themselves pressed into work for the Dlarit Corporation. Aside from military and scholastic pursuits, Sepros is also heavily mined by the Corporation for its rich Baradium veins located beneath the ancient Orian temples. Sepros itself is often avoided by the general civilian population due to a rather pressing sense of dread and foreboding emanating from the planet, it is also a restricted zone within the Orian system in part due to the prevalence of Darksiders but also due to the dangers of the local wildlife tainted and driven insane by the Dark Side.

In recent times the planet has unearthed more extensive ruins within the crash site of the Plagueian VSDII Ballista followed a failed incursion against the Disciples of Sadow.
