Sith Order of Decreto

"We are the future the Sith"

- Unknown Decreto Knight

The Sith Order of Decreto (later known as the Neo-Sth) was an ancient and powerful faction of the Sith Empire. Designed to be the shadow force of the ancient empire. During the Great Hyperspace War of 5,000 BBY many of the Order's ranks were destroyed in battles of oros Major, Kirrek and Battle of Primus Goluud, in which the Sith warship Devestator&mdash; flagship of the Order of Decreto&mdash; was destroyed, drastically thinning their ranks.

The Order disappeared completely following the defeat of Naga Sadow&mdash; their master&mdash; at the hands of the Koros fleet. Many fled the battle with their master but many more fled to the planet below (Korriban). Over the next 5,000 years the Decreto Knights honed their skills and continued to serve the Sith of Exar Kun, and later Darth Revan, all the while remaining hidden to all but the Dark Lord's themselves.

Having mastered the skills required the Sith Order of Decreto succeded in remaining hidden from the Galaxy that not even the later Sith Lords could find them. Despite several attempts by various Dark Lords such as Darth Bane and Darth Sidious. Even with this constant requirment to remain hidden over the 4,000 years following the Second Sith Civil War&mdash; in which it played a pivitol role&mdash; the Sith Order of Decreto steadily expanded its power and influence, securing political control over many worlds in the Unknown Regions, including several in the Chiss Ascendancy.

Remaining hidden throughout the Clone Wars, the Jedi Purge and the Galactic Civil War the Order of Decreto slowly began to take a more active role in the affairs of the galaxy, even going so far as to ignite the Black Fleet Crisis of 16/17 BBY. Hoping to devestate the New Republic the Order of Decreto found itself set back for the first time in their entire history: but it wouldn't stop them.

And so, in the year 38 ABY, a Galactic Alliance warship called The Soiyo happened upon the ancient, and desolate world of Nerezza on the edge of the Unknown Regions, and the edge of Decreto space. Nerezza, being an ancient Sith world, had a strong dark side influence which the Jedi onboard The Soiyo could not ignore. The battle of Nerezza had begun.
