Mahk-Uru Cult

The Mahk-Uru is a small cult dedicated to the Dark Side of the Force. Not Sith, but incorporating some of their teachings, the Mahk-Uru have existed quietly through the last Three-thousand years, waiting for the time when certain celestial alignments would come to pass to signal the return of the "Dark Ones."

Creation
The Cult was created by a renegade Sith Lord named Korbis who was cast out of the Brotherhood of Darkness three-thousand years ago for heresy, as well as crimes even the other Sith Lords found objectionable.

Korbis founded this new group by combining Sith philosophy with ancient Bogan worship rituals of his homeworld, and over the centuries practices of other Force-using groups were absorbed.

Elite Guard
Besides the Core group of Mahk-Uru cultists, the cult has recruited disaffected and fallen members of other Force-using societies. These serve as soldiers, bodyguards, and assassins. At the current date, the Elite Guard consists of a Dark Current Fallannassi, two exiled Dathomiri Nightsisters, a dark Zeishon-Sha, a Matukai, and a Seyugi Dervish.

Goals
The Goal of the Cult is the culmination of a three-thousand year long breeding program to create the "Perfect Vessel" for the Darkside itself to inhabit. Through selective breeding, genetic manipulation, and alchemic formulas, they are very near completion.

The Ka-Vohk
They call this being the "Ka-Vohk," which means "hollow" or "empty" in the ancient language used by the cults founder. What they believe to be the Darkside is, in fact, the consciousness of the Bogan, which was removed from the physical mass by the Celestials.
