June 2, 2006 – Krion
Krion, also known as the Force Center Point, was a planet directly in the center of the Galaxy. Cloaked by strong force energies for millenia, it was the birthplace of Mal-Trido and Darth Zyre. It was also the site of the last battle in the Revival Wars, the Battle of Krion. Krion's north pole is the largest concentration of force energies, an infinite force storm mainly refered to as the Force Nexus. It was large enough to be seen from space but small enough not to cause any damage unless you were right next to it. If you were anywhere inside it however, it was completely harmless. Mal-Trido was born inside these force energies, making him incredibly powerful. However, he did not learn he was born on Krion, nor did his parents, until he went there in 37 ABY. Krion had no life on it but it was thought that before Darth Zyre was born, there was life on Krion and when Zyre was born, he killed whatever other life was on the planet.

June 15, 2006 – Di'e Go Am'er'ez
Jedi Master Di'e Go Am'er'ez was a Jedi warrior and general in the Clone Wars who managed to survive Order 66. Born on the Inner Rim world of Obroa-skai to Human slaves, he was found by the Dark Woman to be a very gifted child with an abundance in the force. Taken to the Jedi temple in 62 BBY, he trained under Yoda as a youngling. He showed considerable talent in many forms of lightsaber combat, and later incorperated elements of these forms into his own form, Sha'do Mediin.

June 22, 2006 – Scafa IX
The ecumenopolis of Scafa IX, more simply and commonly known as Scafa and also known as the Coruscant of the Outer Rim was the most populated world in the Outer Rim. It surpassed Nar Shaddaa after its devastation by the Yuuzhan Vong, as well as Eriadu in 69 ABY, when Imperial terrorists working for the Imperial Terrorist Alliance blew up a large section of Eriadu during the Bombing of Eriadu. Scafa primarily looks like Coruscant, due to the fact that the ecumenopolis designers wished for it to look like Coruscant. The world also challenged planet Ixtlar, as a being could find practically everything there is to buy on the planet.

Scafa had a long, rich history, filled with war, peace, devastation, and life. Scafa had birthed great people, such as the many members of the Imburiav Clan, and many others.

The planet has been the site of major Galactic events, such as the Dark Wars, the Restoration War and others, and was a major player in Galactic events, until it was mostly destroyed by the Reavers in the Battle of Scafa IX.

July 1, 2006 – Darth Abeonis
Darth Abeonis was a legendary Dark Lord of the Decreton Empire, Dark Lord of the Sith, Sith Knight and Sith Lord during the Legacy era.

Born Jasca Ducato in the year 6 ABY; on Taris, Jasca was alive several years after the Purge of the Jedi. Part of a moderately wealthy family and so received a fairly good education but with his world being heavily taxed and ravaged by the Empire he was born into a family sympathetic to the Rebel Alliance.

Following the defeat of the Imperial Remnant he joined the Jedi Order and became an influential figure, serving through-out many conflicts including the Yuuzhan Vong War. But in the years following the Alliance victory over the Yuuzhan Vong Ducato fell to the dark side of the Force and took up the mantle of Darth Abeonis. He was later redeemed, but fell once again years later.

Coming to the realization that the galaxy was facing a threat far greater than anything previously encountered, Abeonis decided to wage war against the Galactic Alliance and the Jedi in order to strengthen the galaxy, whether it be a Jedi, or Sith controlled galaxy.

Due to his exploits through the galaxy, he was even given the prestigious title of Tiorsiabeo, meaning The Honored Sith Warrior, Abeonis, by the people of Vania.

July 9, 2006 – Nathaniel Kenobi
Nathaniel Kenobi, or as he was more commonly known as Nathaniel Kenobi Clan Fett, was a former Jedi Knight and General for the Old Republic. He was a survivor of The Jedi Purge. He was also the husband of Abigaile Jade and the father of Abigaile Kenobi.

Taken away from his parents at an early age, just like every other Jedi before him, Nathan was given training under the maverick Jedi Knight Huk'le, a student of another maverick Jedi, Plett. During his childhood, he began early friendships with Anakin Skywalker and. The Clone Wars soon happened, and during them, Nathan found the path to the way he would view the Force for the remainder of his life.

Seeking to grant him the title of Jedi Knight, the Council arranged for him to conduct the Republic forces involved with the Vandal Wars. After showing off his prowess and skills, he was given the title of Jedi Knight, although it cost him his Master and his beliefs. Finding like-minded individuals like himself, he began to seek other ways to learn how to use the Force. Unfortunately, Order 66 prevented that.

The fall of the Jedi forced Nathan to flee with his two new apprentices&mdash;Ada Fey'lya and Udo Karr&mdash;and eventually, he was able to save many Jedi from extermination and slavery. His new vagabond life led him to Kamino, where he met the love of his life: Abigaile Jade. Saving the Kaminoans and finding them a new home, Nathan sought to destroy the Sith.

After his wife died during his reckless attempts to kill Vader and Palpatine, Nathan lived the next part of his life in a state of self-exile. Eventually, Nathan died of natural causes, and his legacy was left in the form of his daughter.

July 16, 2006 – Battle of Leziquk


The Battle of Leziquk was a very violent battle in the Clone Wars. Even with the help of the 233rd Line Regiment and the 52nd Republic Fighter Wing, Republic defenses were quickly overrun. Only about 1/90 of the Republic forces retreated. It also saw some of the most diverse usage of vehicles and droids in the War.

The planet Leziquk was home to a large stockpile of resources and a Republic research base, in which a counter-agent for Trihexalophine1138 was in developement. The Grand Army discreetly sent a small division (4608 soldiers) of the 15th Defense Corps there to defend their project. No planetary shield or orbital naval support was erected, but the CIS soon learned of the world's value and prepared to attack.

The Confederate fleet came out of hyperspace just before reinforcements from the Republic Navy arrived. Before engaging with most of the Star Destroyers, the CIS managed to get most of their transports to the atmosphere.

The tactically best landing zone was decided to be an area several kilometers offshore from the continent containing the Republic base. Leziquk was approximately 76% ocean, but the media's images and description accidentally misled many into believing the planet only had about as much land as Kamino or Manaan.

July 23, 2006 – Fourso Taa


Fourso Taa was born in 51 BBY on Geonosis. By the time of 48 BBY a small meteor impacted on the small colony of Geonosians. A Geonosian warrior named Taleek Kaun rescued him and took him to a cave. For the next 10 years he trained under the warrior. He learned how to fight on a battlefield and learned many strategies from the man. Fourso’s adopted father fell ill in 34 BBY and soon died. Fourso grieved for his father’s death but set out on an exploration.

In his exploits he wandered upon an abandoned spire and inhabited it. In 30 BBY a enormous rumbling awoke Fourso. He grabbed his axe and peeked outside. A gargantuan rancor towered at least 13 meters tall. Fourso leapt back just before it noticed him. It was attacking his spire for some reason; perhaps it had already smelled him. “Wait. Why is there a rancor on Geonosis?” he thought. “More so, how could he escape it?” He panicked and grabbed his sonic rifle. He ran out blasting it continuously. It seemed to hardly notice. It looked at him for a few moments, and then lunged. He couldn’t stop the massive claw from clutching him. He was lifted high into the air. He struggled for freedom fruitlessly. It was no use. He was pulled to its mouth.

Fourso was tossed into its mouth like a snack. He pulled out his axe and dug it into the beast’s insides “If I’m going down, you are too!” he screamed as he hacked and slashed. It roared and fell to its knees. Blood spilled onto Fourso. He leapt into flight up its esophagus. It collapsed into the spire, leveling it. Through the smoke and rubble flew an near-dead Fourso. Once he had flown out of the smoke he collapsed.

He regained his strength and reemerged into Geonosian civilization. He soon became a captain the military. By the time of 24 BBY the Geonosians joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

July 31, 2006 – Kirid Ground Forces
The Kirid Ground Forces (commonly abbreviated as KGF) is the primary division of the Kirid Grand Army, alongside the airborne forces and the naval forces.

As of the Third War for Kiridak in 146 BBY, the entire KGF consisted of approximately 480,000 troops with 52,600 in reserve.

August 6, 2006 – Owen Kenobi, Jr.
Owen Kenobi, Jr. was what some would call a Jedi and what others would call a renegade. Owen Kenobi was never part of Yoda's or Luke Skywalker's Jedi Order, but was trained in the ways of the Force by the Force-ghost of Obi-Wan Kenobi, his uncle. Owen Kenobi was credited with being a "savior" to the Ewoks of various tribes, and had changed the face of the Galaxy with his devotion to the Jedi way, even though he worked far from civilization for most of his career.

August 13, 2006 – IG-13
IG-13 was started on a short time before the IG-88 droid was started. At first the droid performed better than expectations, although that was not to last. The droid was continually in the wrong place at the wrong time, and after many malfunctions and breakdowns the droid found itself in the scrap heap. The droid, with his weapons all removed, escaped its destruction from the furnace. With nowhere to go and no friends to speak of, the droid stole a ship and began to explore the galaxy. It did small favors for many small businesses but demanded a high amount of secrecy and credits, the main reason why he was unknown to most of the galaxy.

IG-13 made many changes to his structural form, adding many new weapons into his hardware. He even built and old lightsaber into his right arm, because of his increased reflexes the droid could even block a small amount of blaster fire with it. With his new hardware he began to steal and buy weapons from across the galaxy. Eventually having built up a weapons supply of a small planet, IG-13 began recruiting droids to become part of an organization of droids. The droids would do any work as long as the client paid handsomly.

August 20, 2006 – Dustin Fayne


Dustin Fayne was born on Doluc Prime in 45 BBY to the Dolucians Zerray and Silf Fayne. When his homeplanet was destroyed by criminal overlords, he was taken in as a member of the gang. Growing up to be a respected (and feared) killer, he gained his famous assassin-based alias the Cerberus' Fang. However, he was betrayed by the Black Sun and was forced to join the Old Jedi Order in its remaining years, only to see it crumble. After surviving Order 66, he became a wanted Imperial fugitive, though he eventually discreetly joined the Empire.

After returning to the side of of the Jedi, he joined Luke Skywalker's New Jedi Order, and remained allied with them throughout the next forty years; though he occasionally left to fulfill his own agenda. He left the New Order for good to form the Confederation Knights during the Second Corellian Crisis. After the war, he allied himself with the New Order, but wasn't an official member and still held his doubts about its leaders.

When the Sith Order of Decreto rose to power, he temporarily joined their ranks. This act would see his permanent separation from the New Jedi Order. He eventually abandoned the known Galaxy to its fate, and died in the Unknown Regions shortly before the end of the Zao tenj War.

August 28, 2006 – Qui-Gon Jinn
Qui-Gon Jinn, in the widely-known fan-made WK207 alternate universe, lived the same life he did, until Tahl's death. When Tahl's death struck, however, he became someone completely different. As in the main universe, Qui-Gon becomes dangerously close to turning to the Dark Side. In this universe, he actually did. For information on Qui-Gon Jinn's past, read Qui-Gon Jinn until the third paragraph of "Forbidden Love".

When Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan finally found Balog, he had already drugged Tahl. The Jedi managed to rescue her, but despite Qui-Gon’s attempts to heal her through the Force, Tahl passed away.

The death of Tahl drove Qui-Gon into a terrible state of depression and a rise in strong dark side emotions. He blamed himself for Tahl's death and even recalled his past failure with Xanatos. He swore revenge on Balog and made it his top priority to track him down. Obi-Wan, who was worried about his master, tried to assure him that there was no thing that he could have done to save her, but Qui-Gon wouldn’t hear it. Blinded by the fate of his former-apprentice, as well as the death of his closest friend, Qui-Gon set out to murder the foe. Although he had learned from his mistake with Xanatos, his misery brought him even closer to the dark side.

September 5, 2006 – Nathaniel Kenobi Solo


Nathaniel Kenobi Solo or as he was less commonly known as, Nathaniel Kenobi Solo Clan Fett, was a male Human/Zeltron Jedi. His mother was Abigaile Kenobi and his father's name was Nat-ahn Mandrex, a Clawdite Dark Jedi. His mother did not know of a father, because he had seduced her and used a special plant to make her forget everything.

After the death of his mother on Jomark, Nathan was adopted into the House of Solo. There, he met his future wife, Jaina Solo, and grew in his knowledge of the Force and everyday experiences. After joining the Jedi Academy at the age of eight, he was given his grandfather's holocron, which would later tell him during the Yuuzhan Vong War the mysteries of his past and of the people he was ordained to save.

After finding and killing his father, who had been the threat he was supposed to remove, he became an honorary member of the Novus Kamino Prime Jedi Knights. Through the help of the Ottiumigos Centrality, he was able to save the Galactic Alliance from losing the last battle of the Yuuzhan Vong War and married Jaina. Over the next couple of years, he had children and began to help the Jedi Order police the Galaxy.

After the introduction of the Sith Order of Decreto, Nathan's life as a family man was almost torn asunder when his wife died. Despondent, he went to his honorary home of Novus Kamino Prime and remained there until the war came back to haunt him. Banding together with survivors just like him, he helped to form the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People and the Galactic Commonwealth.

Unfortunately, the Sith would eventually make Nathan lose his life, or so it seemed. Thanks to the help of loyal allies, Nathan was placed into cryostasis, to remain there until he was needed again by the Galaxy. Although he sporadically came out to help several different problems, Nathan remained in cryostasis until the Reaver War.

Helping to lead the Jedi to a temporary victory, he was able to save the remnants of the Fifth Republic, find new love, and protect his descendants. Unfortunately, Nathan died as a result of leading Sith Lord Darth Aemulus back to the light. But even in death, Nathan was useful, helping to lead his family to a brighter tomorrow.

September 24, 2006 – Zack Fayne


Zack Fayne was a Dolucian born to Anjon and Silf Alkir-Fayne. He and his sister, Alinia Fayne, were taken in for Jedi training early in their lives. Trained and raised by the Jedi, he was always surrounded by beings clothed in the Light side of the Force.

However, upon the death of his master, Jyubara Uzuma, he fell to the Dark side and became the feared Darth Atravir. Taking control of his father's company, he created a technological terror known as the Doombringer. He came close to destroying Coruscant and would've succeeded, if his conscience hadn't kicked in and he stopped the machine and destroyed it completely.

After rising again as the Dark Lord, he summoned the ancient Sith beast known as the DRACOSTORM, which he almost unleashed upon the Galaxy. However, multiple visions and dreams, as well as visits from Force ghosts, caused him to change his ways permanently and destroy the DRACOSTORM in exchange for his life.

However, he was revived near the end of the Infinbelum Era through the New Sith Revival Project. Reborn as Redempto Runus, he redeemed himself in the eyes of the Jedi, and he was able to return to the Jedi Order as a Jedi Knight, fighting alongside them in the Reaver War. He died near the end of the war defending what he held dear.

October 8, 2006 – Jack Phoenix
Jack Phoenix was a former CTU Coruscant agent and its former director. During the Clone Wars, he caused a lot of trouble to CTU, Division Command and even to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. One reason why he wasn't caught by the authorities of Coruscant was that he had friends in high places, all willing to help him if he needed help. He also had several powerful enemies, such as Clone Commander Veridovich, Anakin Skywalker and Iceheart.

He managed to survive Order 65, and this made him the number one target on Vader's blacklist. Vader hunted him down, and almost killed him in 9 BBY. However, unknown to Joseph Auda and Vader, Jack survived. After Auda and Vader had both left planet Geonosis, Jack left it too. Later on, he founded the Order of the Phoenix, an organization designed to train new Jedi Knights.

Because of two spies inside the Order, it's location was soon revealed to Darth Vader, who had wanted to capture Jack Phoenix for a long time since he escaped Vader's grip on Geonosis. The Order's best swordsmen, trained by Jack himself, were mostly killed by Vader on 3 ABY, and after this, Vader had Jack Phoenix imprisoned and brought onboard his Star Destroyer, the Executor.

In 4 ABY, exactly one year after his imprisonment, he was poisoned by a spy onboard the Executer. When he was taken to the medical clinic, he had a change to escape, and so he did, escaping to the Forest Moon of Endor, where he would later meet his brother, Henry Phoenix.

November 5, 2006 – Darth Nihilus


Darth Nihilus was a Sith Lord and the first of Wyyrlok's "Hands" and the commander of the Sith Order of Decreto's forces on Korriban and its nearby systems. A close "friend" of Darth Raith, the two were barely seen apart, let alone out of contact with one another.

A Korribanite, Nihilus was taken into the Sith fold early on, quickly showing his tenacity for combat and strategy. By the time of the Zao tenj War he was one of the most powerful Sith of his age and a force to be reckoned with.

November 20, 2006 – Hapan Dragon Speeder


The Hapan Dragon Speeder, or Dragon Speeder for short, was a popular craft that used a powerful reactor. The speeder was popular among civilians as a hunting/joyriding craft, and bought by numerous police and military organizations for its speed and fighting capability. Numerous dragon speeders were integrated into the New Republic Grand Fleet, and saw much action in the Second Clone War and the Next Sith War. The craft was easily modified and was sometimes equipped with flachette missiles instead of laser cannons.

Though wider, heavier, and less aerodynamic than most vehicles of its size, the Dragon Speeder became the primary land-based reconnaissance vehicle for the Hapans in particular and several New Republic fleets. It lead to be considered a new class of vehicle, between a speeder bike and a landspeeder, though capable of higher altitudes than either. Some considered the Dragon Speeder to be a counterpart to the Hutt Battle Rover, which was used in similar ways, though the Dragon Speeder's repulsorlift made it tactically superior to the cheap Hutt-produced vehicle, which depended on wheels for movement.

The Dragon Speeders weren't cheap, but they were enough for civilians to purchase when there was a need for the vehicle. The speeder's price was much lower on the homeworld of Hapes, where the large surplus and the lack of interstellar transport made the military craft desirable for the Hapan Royal Security forces. Hence, while there were millions of Dragon Speeders used for reconnaissance and elite hit-and-run missions in combat throughout the Galaxy during the Second Clone War and the Next Sith War, nearly a majority of Dragon Speeders were in service on Hapes. The surplus of these vehicles was one of the factors that led the Hapans to win the Battle of Reef Fortress and the Battle of Queen's Palace.

December 16, 2006 – Sith Crusade

After another three years, Karaane could hold in his blood-lust no more. The Rebels had occupied Ralltiir, and he could take out his rage on them. He decided to work for the Empire-but indirectly. He would be like the great Boba Fett. A bounty hunter. A mercenary. He would do whatever the Empire asked of him, if it fit his morals. Karaane left Ralltiir for his new life, leaving his mother behind. He never heard from him again.

Following their departure from the planet, the two Jedi began openly engaging the Galactic Empire, with multiple conflicts against the Imperial Inquisitor Si'va Morrer. In 13 BBY, K'Kruhk was gravely wounded and forced into hibernation, which made him appear dead. At this time, Narod met a Jedi named Zeri Undis, and the two fell in love. Along with Undis, Narod continued to fight against the Empire.

In 7 BBY, their son, Roviik Antrell, was born, and Narod participated less in the rebellion against the Empire. When he was approached by the KrypTek Insurgence, he once again became involved in the Galactic Civil War, until his friend Lyus Silep was killed at the Battle of Lurr, after which he was lightly active. After his family was kidnapped during the Battle of Tillaj, Narod had one final duel against Si'va Morrer and was able to safely return home to Dantooine, and subsequently decided to leave explored space and venture into the Unknown Regions, to start a new life.

January 30, 2007 – Bryn Fulcron
Bryn Fulcron was a Jedi Knight/Master during the Yuuzhan Vong War and the Legacy Era. He was the grandson of Obi-Wan Kenobi, and was married to Jaina Solo-Fulcron.

Fulcron was born on Dubrillion in 10 ABY to renowned landowner Kyn Fulcron and his wife, Terra. Bryn had 1 sister, Bryt Fulcron, who was born in 14 ABY. As a small boy, Bryn heard many stories of the reborn Jedi, such as Luke Skywalker. Unlike his father, the small boy was quite interested in his Jedi lineage, and wanted to find Master Skywalker's Academy as soon as he came of age. His father put up a front of not wanting Bryn to fill his head with delusions and grandeur, but in reality, Kyn did not want his eldest child's life ruined by the Force as his had been. As a result, Kyn Fulcron forbade Bryn from ever actively looking for the Jedi Temple.

February 5, 2007 – Shapeshifters
Shapeshifters (or Shallar as they prefer to call themselves) are a race of polymorphic creatures thought to be merely legend. They originated in the Far Unknown Regions, and, due to civil wars and friction, separated into several groups: the non-pureblood Juur'lan'iin (who became the modern Gurlanins), the non-pureblood genetically modified and selectively bred Crokes, the non-pureblood Shi'Ido (ancestors of the modern race of the same name), the highly mutated Veras (who became the Felacatians), the Pureblood Shapeshifters, and the unmodified Lorsanan Shapeshifters. The Lorsanan Shapeshifters disappeared a little after the First Jedi Purge, holding their own deep in the Far Unknown Regions where they remain isolated to this day. The Pureblood Shapeshifters were the cause of this isolation, as they were nearly completely destroyed in the Mandalorian Wars. They were nearly wiped out, with only a few left in the Galaxy. The race fell into legend, as they rarely ever revealed their race; however, several Purebloods live in the Galaxy to this day.

They are an interesting race, both plagued and gifted with their rare physiology that inadvertently can make them an extremely powerful opponent. However, this is restrained by their biological and mental fears and their general willful social oppression. The only known one who attained this near god-like peak is Rokur Gepta due to his offshoot race's genetic tampering.

They were, and may still be, a very artistic race, with reportedly many achievements in music and art in both aesthetic and architectural capacities, credited to their creative minds. However, their segregationalist and specisist attitude kept them from general discovery, thus making the true quality of these achievements impossible to gauge.

February 11, 2007 – Second Mandalorian Wars
The Second Mandalorian Wars was a conflict that occured exactly fifteen years after the Jedi Civil War and ten years after the First Jedi Purge. The Mandalorian Empire fought against the Jedi Order and Galactic Republic for three years before the Treaty of Coruscant was signed. The outcome of the war brought the Galactic Coalition between the Jedi, the Republic, and the Mandalorians and intergalactic peace. It was named the Second Mandalorian Wars after the First Mandalorian Wars. The Mandalorians were once again defeated.

February 25, 2007 – Bendu Order
The Bendu Order was an ancient and noble monastic peacekeeping organization in the Ashlan Expanse that was one of two great orders that emerged during a schism within the Jedi Bendu Order 15,000 years before the Battle of Yavin IV. The Bendu Order was unified through its belief in the God Yahweh and his omnipotent presence, known as the Force of Others. Wielders of this mystic energy and signature long swords, the Bendu Knights were revered as guardians of an everlasting peace in the Ashlan worlds.

The Bendu rarely left their home planet of Kal'Shabbol to fight, but there were three major instances when they did. Under the leadership of Ussej Padric Bac and Ussej Padric Bac II, the order quelled a tyranny on Had Abaddon, fought in the Great Sovereign Crusades under the leadership of Ussej Padric Bac III and helped destroy the Galactic Empire and the Sith Order under the leadership of Ussej Padric Bac LXIV.

A very religious people, the Bendu had an ancient set of prophecies that had been passed down from the time of The Skywalker, the founder of the Jedi Bendu Order. Many of their own people, such as Ussej Padric Bac, Ussej Padric Bac II and Ussej Padric Bac III, fulfilled a group of these prophecies while many others were fulfilled by Jedi Knights and Jedi Bendu Knights after the reunification of the orders.

March 4, 2007 – Sith Order of Decreto
The Sith Order of Decreto, also known more commonly as the Decreton Empire 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 Koros Major, Kirrek and Battle of Primus Goluud, in which the Sith warship Devastator&mdash; flagship of the Order of Decreto&mdash; was destroyed, drastically thinning their ranks.

They later went on to rebuild their forces and conquer the galaxy under the command of the Dark Lord Darth Abeonis, and would rule it for almost two-hundred and fifty years before they were eventually forced to withdraw.

By the year 1,400 ABY the Sith Order of Decreto had pretty much retreated within it's borders, having been severely weakened by almost two hundred years of continuous warfare (56 &mdash; 246 ABY); but it still remained a power to be reckoned with, depsite taking no part in the Restoration War.

The Sith Order continued to grow in power and strength, once again remaining hidden from the galaxy. But, with the close of the Second Galactic Civil War and the total collapse of the galaxy's infarstructure the Sith Order of Decreto beleived the time had finally come to make their return.

March 11, 2007 – Alpha-Ø4
Alpha-Ø4, also known as Gulo was an Alpha-class Advanced Recon Commando who fought during the Clone Wars.

Alpha-Ø4 was raised differently from most other clones because of his special designation as an ARC Trooper. Trained by Jango Fett and several other Mandalorian mercenaries, the young commando learned advanced combat skills and small group-based tactics. He entered the War shortly after its commencement and served with exemplary marks and would likely have been one of the Empire's elite had he not abandoned his post shortly after the instating of Order 66.

Gulo spent the next twenty years doing mercenary work for whoever would hire them. After escaping an exotic world, he set out to create an organization dedicated to helping the less fortunate ones of the Galaxy in the more violent, ambiguously legal manner. Shortly after, the Broken Circle Armada was founded, and thrived under Gulo's leadership for nearly three decades.

During the Yuuzhan Vong War, Gulo's armada aided in the First Battle of Coruscant. He consequently did not survive the battle.

March 18, 2007 – Krad Erron
Krad Erron was a Force Sensitive Human Male with Mandalorian blood in his veins, born 19 BBY. He became a Rebel pilot at age 21 in 0 BBY, after his mother was murdered for housing Rebel "fugitives". Years later, he joined Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy as a fully fledged Jedi Knight, but then mysteriously disappeared for thousands of years.

Around 150 BBY, Krad's ancestor, Janos Dylyk married a Female Mandalorian named Kasa Huuran. Their son, Wyskn Dylyk (Born that same year) was a famed Mandalorian hero. Around 120 BBY Wyskn went on an investigation mission for a missing Mandalorian recruit on the ice world of Xenos. At that same time, a Jedi Knight named Fask Rangul was investigating Black Sun activity and saw the Mandalorian. Believing he was in league with the underworld activity, Fask engaged Wyskn in combat. Wyskn was truly formidable in combat, but was eventually decapitated, nonetheless. When news of his death, and his killer, got news to Mandalore, his daughter Avual (born 104 BBY), planned a trap for the Jedi in the Maw, where she killed him in a starfighter battle.

March 25, 2007 – Hei-Ri Devon
Hei-Ri Devon was a legendary human male Jedi Master, and one of the greatest heroes in the history of the Republic. Known for his daring spirit, his charisma and his legendary skill with the lightsaber, Devon was one of the most powerful and most respected Jedi Masters in the Jedi Order since Yoda and Luke Skywalker.

Devon was born in Naboo, in the capital city of Theed. Born in a rich family of Senators, Devon had everything a young boy could ever dream of. But, unfortunately, destiny turned its tide against him...

April 1, 2007 – Dark Guardians of Lettow
The Dark Guardians of Lettow was the official name for a group of warriors founded by the self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness Carden Mannux that practiced the Dark Side of the Force. The group was created based upon the teachings, writings and philosophies of Xendor Taral, Marka Ragnos and Darth Revan. The Lettow worshiped the Dark Side of the Force and, in time, they were bent on aiding the Sith Empire and the Galactic Empire in their quest to destroy the Jedi Order and, eventually, the Bendu Order. They were galactically known for their brutal discipline and lust for power in their upper ranks, along with the unholy methods they used to advance in rank.

During the early days of the organization, the Lettow simply worshiped the Dark Side as they prepared to unleash their fury on the unsuspecting innocents of the galaxy. They were rediscovered during the Millennium of Hiding by a Dark Lord of the Sith and secretly began serving the Sith Order until the death of Darth Plagueis, as the knowledge of their location was lost when Plagueis did not reveal it to his apprentice, Darth Sidious. Decades later, they were rediscovered by Sidious and his apprentice, Darth Vader.

The Lettow were instrumental in many battles during the Galactic Civil War, most notably the First Battle of Alderaan, the Battle of Endor, the Second Battle of Alderaan, the Sieges of Naboo and the First Battle of Coruscant. However, during the First Battle of Coruscant, all but two Dark Guardians, Kane Starkiller and Mara Jade, were destroyed. The destruction of the faction thereby destroyed almost four thousand years of hard work and determination from Carden Mannux onward. However, the philosophies and practices of the Dark Guardians were later used on Earth by the Prophets of Lettow, a group that tried to bring about the return of Carden Mannux.

April 8, 2007 – Reven
Duke Simeon Alkir, or his aliases Commander Reven, Lord Reven, or Grand Emperor Reven (81 BBY-31 BBY), was a Korun (Human) born on the world of Haruun Kal in 81 BBY to Lance and Serri Alkir. Raised by the Jedi, he was corrupted to by the Dark side during his time as a Jedi Knight. After his fall to the Dark side, he became Reven, though he didn't necessarily claim the title of Darth.

He hoped to rule the Outer Rim through his vast tactical knowledge, mass amount of troops, and great charisma that persuaded many systems to his side. Combined with the powers of the Force, these qualities and gifts made him a powerful foe to be reckoned with.

Reven then established an Outer Rim empire, known as the Regalak Empire. Based on the Outer Rim moon of Regalon V, his Empire continued to expand and Reven eventually became a threat to the Galactic Republic itself. He attempted to overthrow the Republic, and made his way to the Galactic capital of Coruscant. He most likely would've been victorious if he wasn't defeated at the hands of his officer, Luto Garr, who betrayed him in his quest for power. Upon his death, Reven's empire collapsed, and the Republic healed itself in preparation for their next war.

April 15, 2007 – Ussej Padric Bac III
Ussej Padric Bac III was born on Aquilae to Ussej Padric Bac II and Tesiana Al-Dubrir during the Ashlan Civil War, making him a part of a long line of legendary war heroes, politicians, tyrants, Jedi Knights, Sith Lords and Bendu Knights. He was the third man of the Bac family to bear the name “Ussej Padric Bac”, and was the first to bear the name after the tradition began to name every first born male of the family “Ussej Padric Bac” in honor of his grandfather, Ussej Padric Bac. Because of his abilities and his family name, he became the Bendu High Priest and led the Bendu Order during the Great Sovereign Crusades. During that war, he was one of the main catalysts in bringing about a disastrous holy war that exiled the Jedi Order and inadvertently brought the Third Sith Empire to power once again and nearly annihilated the Galactic Republic in the process.

During the war, Ussej was one of the players in a major trinity of the three most unlikely individuals. Falling in love with Isabella Dashin and eventually allying himself Kalel Kitsune, Isabella’s eventual lover and father of her daughter, he was able to use the trinity to rectify his mistakes, thereby becoming a Prophet of the Whills as stated in the Prophecy of the Nine Prophets. His spirit was carried to Ashlan Four after he sacrificed himself to save Kalel and kill Carden Mannux in the Temple of the Ancients on Lehon. After visiting his home one last time in the form of a spirit, he made his way into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Ussej’s mistakes during the war brought about an age of awakening for the Bendu Order. After Ussej’s death, his greatest friend and successor as High Priest, Josiah Rendar, helped the order rebuild itself from the ground up. Josiah always remained cognizant of his friend’s life story to ensure that what happened during his time would not happen again. During the age of awakening, there were not only changes in appearances but a change in the way that the order viewed itself in comparison to the rest of the universe. Ussej, along with his father and grandfather, was able to help the order realize what would happen to someone if they allowed pride get the better of them. For that, Ussej was never forgotten.

April 22, 2007 – Battle of Vuur
The Battle of Vuur was the first battle of the Dar'yaim War. The conflict began behind the scenes, without anyone's knowledge. The Nee'mal Sith Order gave the Mandalorians of A'den promises of power and galactic dominance if they were to wage war against the S'Voet Region, which prompted the Usti'jin Triumvirate to prepare an attack. Meanwhile, the Sith Lord Darth Baas took Roviik Antrell captive, in an attempt to lure him to the dark side. Narod Antrell, his wife Zeri Undis Antrell, and other Jedi members of the Jedi Army had been stranded on Vuur after Baas had their ship gunned down, and brought to the Bogenoemd Center. Once Roviik was taken captive, the Sith Lord threw the group into the wild.

Antrell and his companions were able to rally the Suide Vuuranians from the South to their cause, to fight against the advanced Bogenoemd and retrieved both their honor and Roviik Antrell in the process. As the Jedi Army marched towards the Bogenoemd Center, the Mandalorians also launched their attack, landing small transports around the Bogenoemd Center and invading the city. The Bogenoemd were facing battle on two fronts, and failed to attempt either side of their city. They were overrun, and eventually Narod Antrell was able to reach his son and free him, after a duel with Darth Baas. Following his defeat, Baas escaped and rallied his trained warriors, Sith Assassins, and led them into battle against the Mandalorians.

Darth Baas was able to kill Deng Usti'jin, the leader of the Triumvirate, and in retaliation, he was killed by Li Usti'jin, the youngest of the Triumvirate. Towards the end of the battle, the Jedi Army had already lost Bromiir and Oleon, and had lost much ground to the Mandalorians. The Bogenoemd were also losing, especially without their Sith leader. In order to give Zeri and Roviik time to escape and Arassk time to retreat, Narod held off a large portion of the Mandalorians, dying in the process. His wife and son were able to escape by hijacking a transport, while Arassk and the remaining Suide were able to retreat to the South. The Bogenoemd Center was lost to the Mandalorians, however, and while Li Usti'jin began a large cleanup of the fallen, his brother, Vha Usti'jin, led an attack against Arassk, in the South.

Jerr Adoh, the Archon of the Republic of P'ur, sent a reconnaissance team to Vuur to assist Arassk after he was informed by Zeri and Roviik, but the team failed and all were killed in the process, including Arassk and Pavass, the leader of the Suide. With their deaths, ended the the Battle of Vuur, and began the Dar'yaim War. Roviik Antrell would be the last hope for the Republic, as he was sent away and trained by Narod Antrell's holocron, in order to achieve Knighthood.

April 29, 2007 – Darth Hiljo

He spent his days working the Nerf farm with his father. This was the extent of their relationship, as Epin was neglected by his father, who favored his daughter Rena. On the rare occasions he did converse with his father, it usually ended in violence. However, Epin did learn a form of sword fighting called Makashi, by watching his father's movements while he taught Rena. When he wasn't working, Epin spent his free time fighting in Alderaan's underground fight clubs, the Black Manka in particular...

On a fateful night in 3 BBY, Epin would rescue Princess Leia from an assault by one of his fellow fighters. The two became very close as a result and began to see more of each other.

May 27, 2007 – Roviik Antrell


Roviik "Viik" Antrell was a Human Jedi Padawan born at the city of Tillaj, Dantooine, in 7 BBY. Roviik was the son of the Jedi Knights Narod Antrell and Zeri Undis Antrell, and the last known member of the Antrell family. During his early years, Roviik spent most of his time at home and with his mother, while his father was assisting groups such as the KrypTek Insurgence and the Alliance to Restore the Republic fight against the Galactic Empire.

Regardless of his father's status in the Galactic Civil War, Roviik still very family oriented and the main priority of both his parents. He was given small, basic lessons in the Force from time to time, which mirrored Narod's own Jedi training, as a youngling, during his time with the Ascending Jedi Clan. Eventually, Roviik was unintentionally dragged into the Galactic Civil War; Si'va Morrer, an Imperial Inquisitor, injured and kidnapped Roviik and Zeri while Narod was distracted at the Battle of Tillaj, and was taken to Voktunma.

Narod was able to locate his family after Morrer issued a challenge, which led to a duel on Voktunma between Morrer and himself.

June 3, 2007 – E.C.H.O. Visor
The E.C.H.O. Visor (Electrosignetic Caphsronis Hectron Obenexer), was a high-tech signal visor created by a precise and complex three-fold combination of black market, stolen imperial and rebellion technology. It utilized the absolute peak of technology during its time, which also accounted for its rarity, complicated features, and especially its infamous expense. To ensure that it would never burn out or decrease in effectiveness, the E.C.H.O. visor was energized by two small Artusian crystals located near the visor's left and right temples.

The maintenance of the visor was almost non-existent. The only regular maintenance required was that the two Artusian crystals in the visor’s temples needed semi-regular activation, in order to keep the crystals active and functioning. If the crystals are not powered up at least once every 40 days, the crystals would steadily deteriorate.

Contrary to what most in the Rebellion believed, the Rebel Alliance splinter faction called RAIF (Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction) was, in fact, behind the visor’s creation. The technology was acquired almost completely by theft, or assassinations, and even hired some foreign scientist of another manufacturer. Due the organization's secrecy, the "publicly accepted" way the Rebel Alliance received the technologies was by using a sort infiltrator droids to simply copy the schematics from the Galactic Empire, and an unknown criminal entity.

June 10, 2007 – Saber Throw-off


Saber Throw-off was a game played mostly by Jedi and Sith. It was usually played with two players both using training lightsabers, although highly skilled Force-sensitives occasionally played with real lightsabers. The two players would each be armed with a saber, and would throw them at each other. The players had to stay a minimum of 10 feet away from each other. They were not allowed to block their opponent's saber with their own saber. Instead, they had to dodge them.

The game became very popular over the years and eventually professional leagues were introduced. Once these leagues formed, some Jedi left the Jedi Order to play in these professional leagues. Leagues included the Galactic Saber Throw-off League (GSTL) and the Realistic Saber Throw-off League (RSTL).

Saber Throw-off was played under many different rules, and therefore the objective was not always the same. There were three "main" ways to play the game. There was the basic game, which was most commonly used, the realistic game which attempted to employ the most realistic rules, and the infinite game, where all matches were decided by decision.

June 24, 2007 – Jack Nebulax
Jack Nebulax was a Fleet Admiral in the Imperial Navy who would eventually promote himself to Grand Admiral and become Emperor of his own empire.

Throughout his life, Nebulax would serve in the Republic and Imperial Navies, in some points rising rapidly through the ranks. It is known that at a few points in his Imperial career, he attracted the attention of Emperor Palpatine for his outstanding performance at battles.

Unknown to everyone but himself and a small amount of others, Nebulax was Force-sensitive, but not enough to attract the attention of the Jedi Order. Nonetheless, Nebulax knew from a young age he would become a naval commander, and even after finding out about his Force-sensitivity, he did not dream of becoming a Jedi as most others would have.

The highlight of Nebulax's career came after the Battle of Endor when he set up the Nebulax Empire on Had Abbadon with himself as leader. Nebulax would serve as Emperor far into the Legacy and Unity eras.

July 1, 2007 – Swerto Dragonouve
Swerto Dragonouve was a human male that was born a year into the Clone Wars under the parentage of a mercenary that fought with the 501st, Swerto (I) and an ex-Jedi Mira Dragonouve. Swerto grew up on his own on Tatooine after his mother died when he was eight and before his father found him at fourteen. Swerto was part of the young stormtroopers and found himself in military service quickly. Swerto was stationed aboard the Death Star at the Battle of Yavin at which he grabbed a TIE fighter and began fighting in the space battle.

Swerto flew his way to Yavin IV just as the Death Star was destroyed which pushed him there faster than the rebel ships behind him. He crashed on Yavin and fought in that battle. Swerto was promoted and soon demoted and placed on leave on Tatooine once again. There he joined TIS and made his way back to Colonel and later resigned due to personal differences with a new member. Swerto joined ODS after being in a Rebel prison camp for months. Swerto made his way back and joined ODS under an old friends advice.

Swerto resigned from ODS after the Battle of Restuss and soon went to the Rebellion to spy. After his spying was finished Swerto returned to the Empire and fought at the Battle of Hoth, being one of the first to march into Echo Base. He also fought at the Battle of Endor a year later where he was shot down and stranded on Endor for a year. After returning to the Empire for a few years Swerto secretly joined the Dark Shadow Sith and destroyed it from the inside taking it as his own and forming the Dark Order with Kenya as his apprentice. Years later Swerto proposed to Kenya during a war with the Light Order temporarily ending it as the fought against Neal and his Chaos Order together.

July 8, 2007 – Ussej Padric Bac II
Ussej Padric Bac II was born to a long line of legendary war heroes, politicians, Jedi Knights and Sith Lords. His ancestor, Jonathan Bac, was the first Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. His grandfather and great-grandfather were both Senators of Alderaan. His parents were Laili Jeyna Rendar, the sister of his uncle Kit Corwin Rendar, and Saint Ussej Padric Bac who went on to become the Shaman of the Whills. His mother and uncle originated from Corellia. His wife, Bara ErMez, would eventually give birth to a son named Ussej Padric Bac III, a legendary Bendu High Priest that brought about the Holy War during The Great Sovereign Crusades.

The second Bac to bear the name “Ussej Padric”, he fought in the final battle of the Great Rim Lines War on Dxun where he met a young Republic Colonel named Cos Jonathan Dashin who would later go on to be one of the most instrumental Supreme Chancellor’s in galactic history.

After he died on Dxun, the newly elected High Priest Neil Rendar analyzed the Jedi Bendu Prophecies and realized that Ussej was one of the Prophets of the Whills spoken of in the Prophecy of The Nine Prophets. His mistakes during his life helped to bring about an age of awakening for the Bendu Order. During this time, not only were there changes in appearance to a more formal and monk-like style, but also a change in the way that the Order viewed itself. The three men of the Bac Family helped them to realize what happens when pride gets the best of people, including those held in such high regard.

July 15, 2007 – Steel Legion
The Steel Legion, often known simply as the Legion, was an extremely powerful criminal organisation, based on Nar Shadda and later Dac, ruled by the old CIS battle droid Unit 8311, during the times of the Empire and beyond. At it's height, it had influence and presence on countless worlds in every sector in the galaxy, and was feared by many.

It dealt with many criminal activites, from piracy to major theft to drug running. Over time, it gained a reputation for its large galaxy-wide activities, which provided it with a near-constant source of income. With these large amounts of funds, it gained large military forces, augmented by various technologies, some of which were exclusive to the Legion. Unlike other criminal organisations, the Legion was not afraid to attack the Empire and other governments in its quest for profit.

The Legion, despite being broken up shortly before the Battle of Yavin, would later be reformed. Throughout its history, it remained a highly powerful body, rivalled only by Black Sun and the Hutt Cartel. After the Yuuzhan Vong War, it would become the most powerful criminal syndicate in the galaxy due to the elimination of its main rivals. It would go on to survive into the Legacy era.

July 29, 2007 – Darth Exemplar
Darth Exemplar (born Malik Lanmaw), was a human male born on Lehon into slavery of the ruthless Rakata. His family was one of the many to work on the immense Star Forge. Through his anger at the Rakata, and of his overly abusive father, he grew immensly strong in the Force, especially the Dark Side.

Though he was an angry individual, Malik was quite attached to his sister,and it was this bond that drove a great deal of his anger. Seeing her in any kind of pain, set him over the edge, as he would violently attack anyone who harmed her. Perhaps the best example of this would be when Malik murdered his father in defense of his sister.

Fate would give Malik the chance he was waiting for when his sister, Shizu, was chosen to be a servant of the leader of the Tahh tribe. Through this, he was able to uncover an ancient Rakatan tomb, and gain full control over his powers. However, history always dictates that with great power, comes great sacrifice. The more Malik used this dark power, the more it consumed his very soul. Perhaps even more disturbing, the more power he used, the less others would be able to distinguish between each. The normal, if he could be considered as such, or the darker, more sadistic persoanlity that surfaced whenever that power was harnessed.

Fate, however, would conspire against him, as he would eventually be forced into a confrontation with his beloved sister. A violent encounter that saw no winner, and ended with the disappearance of the two.

August 5, 2007 – Darth Tyler
Darth Tyler, prieviously known as T-1LR, was a force-sensitive Sith B-1 battle droid serving in the Trade Federation Droid Army, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Galactic Droid Empire, and the New Confederacy of Independent Systems. He participated in famous battles such as the Invasion of Naboo, Battle of Muunilinst, Battle of Tanaab, among many others. He was the creator and self-appointed first Emperor of the Galactic Droid Empire, as well as the first Supreme Commander of the New Confederacy of Independent Systems Droid Armies and the first Speaker of the Confederate Senate.

Other than the fact of being the only Force-sensitive battle droid, he was a Sith, and self-trained. He was the only known user of Form XLII: Zastra, his own form. However, Darth Wyyrlok (II) and K'Kruhk may have used the form as well. He was also a member of the New Confederacy of Independent Systems Council, along with Troyb, Vale Sinkon, Kiita the Greater, and others. He signed several treaties with many governments, but had his share of losses and victories in battles. His personality was rough, he did not get along with other major political figures such as Kiita immediateley. Although they would get off at a rocky start, they would eventually get along.

Tyler recieved a lot of flack daily about his battle droid-status. Several assassination attempts were made on him, all resulting in a failure. He took an apprentice, Darth Adrsti, later in his life. Adrsti would become a very independent apprentice and would often try to kill Tyler. Tyler dueled Adrsti at one point, killing him. Another attempt was made on his life on his own ship, where one of his highly-loyal Flame battle droids turned on him. The droid was cut into seven pieces by the end of the fight, showing all other droids his power.

August 12, 2007 – Shizu Lanmaw
Shizu Lanmaw was a human female born into slavery of the Rakata. She, along with her younger brother Malik, was among the countless slaves to work on the Star Forge. She spent most of her life as "daddy's girl", in a variety of ways, as she was frequently "made use" of. This drove her to hate, she hated her father immensely, often wishing death upon him, for the constant abuse...

Her wish would eventually come true, when her father would attempt to murder her, and her brother. When she was in danger, Malik came to her rescue and killed their father in defense of her.

She was also the center of attention with the boys around the slave camps, and thus she had a tendency to be somewhat conceded. Though, despite her popularity, she preferred to spend time with her brother. However, she did date briefly, a boy named Tiro, but this also fueled her fire, as she was beaten by him. As a result, the relationship did not last.

Her anger would continue to build, though she kept it buried inside, until she was pushed too far. Shizu gave in to her dark side when she brutally tortured, and killed her ex-boyfriend, Tiro. Proving that she was more than just a pretty face.

She would eventually be driven to a confrontation with her brother, one that saw no winner, and ended with the disappearance of the two.

August 19, 2007 – Si'va Morrer


Si'va Morrer was an Inquisitor of Palpatine and a dark Jedi, who had many battles against the uprising Rebel Alliance. Si'va Morrer was born on Sluis Van in 39 BBY, where he was influenced to lean politically against the Republic, just as the Separatists later would. He was a petty thief as a young adolescent, and was looked down upon by his family. This provoked early depression at his young age. Si'va came to be trained during the Clone Wars, as a dark Jedi by the members of the Dark Acolytes of Count Dooku. Si'va first began to gain confidence during his time with Dooku and the Separatists. Si'va survived the Clone Wars, and after the formation of the Empire, he joined the Inquisitorius. He proved his abilities to the Dark Lords above him.

Si'va met his greatest rival, Narod Antrell, in 18 BBY, after following him to Telos IV from Manaan's moon, Slok. Narod would become Si'va's greatest rival and worst enemy. Si'va would not give up the hunt for Narod, even after failing often to defeat him. After his failure on Ossus, Si'va was taken in by Vader personally to be trained and pushed to his limit. Si'va survived Vader's training, which involved isolation on Korriban, and ended up being stronger than ever before. After being dubbed a master of the dark side, Si'va trained three of his own apprentices. All three of his apprentices got involved with Morrer's mastery of dark side illusions, which were very powerful and realistic. Unfortunately for Si'va, his apprentices too would be unsuccessful, just as Si'va had been many times.

Si'va would fight Narod and the KrypTek Insurgence on several occasions, eventually leading to a battle on Dantooine. There, Si'va would kidnap Narod's wife and son, and take them to Voktunma, to challenge Narod to one last duel. After Si'va lost the final duel, he let go of his hate for his nemesis, and after being left alone, Si'va killed himself under the shame of ultimate defeat.

August 26, 2007 – Merc Gev, Sr.
Merc Gev was the son of Mirta Gev and Ghes Orade, making him the great grandson of the infamous bounty hunter Boba Fett. After many traumatic episodes in which he lost many loved ones, Merc abandoned his Mandalorian culture in order to become a bounty hunter like his great grandfather and grandfather before him. Later in his life, Merc married Sheel, a Kiffar smuggler, and the couple had a daughter, Briika Gev, and a son, also named Merc.

After a successful career as a bounty hunter, Gev took over as Mandalore, participating in the offensives against the Federation in the Tenloss Hyperspace War. On the onset of the Galactic Alliance-Imperial War, Gev took a more active role as Mandalore and united the Mandalorian clans across the Galaxy, bringing the the House of Mandalore back to prominence once again. Unfortunately, before he had a chance to see the final results of Mandalore's unity with the Galactic Alliance, Gev was killed in combat. His legacy would live on through his children, as well as his Mandalorian brethren, who would have a huge impact on galactic history.

Merc Gev was known to be a powerful and unrivaled Mandalorian, and as one of the greatest legends to ever live. He even rivaled the popularity and inspired as much fear as Boba Fett once had. Most importantly, Gev was fiercely loyal to his family, and most of those he affiliated himself with knew that his family always came first.

September 2, 2007 – Order of the Whills
The Order of the Whills was an ancient high order of beings that dwelled within the Ashlan Expanse on the mythical world of Ashlan Four. Made up of the deeply spiritual and possibly part-divine race known as the Whills, the order was made up of the keepers of an ancient manuscript called the Journal of the Whills that contained the Prophecies of The Skywalker and a detailed history of the galaxy. The Whills were led by a chief who took received his few orders from The Skywalker, the man who founded the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi. The order was also overseen by the deeply spiritual Shaman of the Whills, a man named Ussej Padric Bac who rose to the prophetic status thirty years after the devastating Great Territorial War.

With the help of the wisest of the Whills, the shaman was able to discover the secrets of eternal consciousness and passed the knowledge on to a Jedi Master named Qui-Gon Jinn, who in turn passed it onto four other users of the Force of Others named Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Kane Starkiller and Annikin Skywalker, Starkiller being the one spoken of in the Prophecy of the Guardian and Skywalker being the prophetic Chosen One from the Prophecy of the Son of the Suns. By passing on such a secret, the shaman allowed the legacy of the Order of the Whills to flourish within the realm of the known galaxy.

Along with aiding in the discovery of eternal consciousness, the order helped re-establish partial contact with the Third Jedi Bendu Order, the order made up of Jedi Bendu who were forced to flee to Earth during the final days of the Reunification War that was fought against the oppressive forces of the Rizen Order. By finding the Jedi Bendu on Earth, a Whill that named itself “E.T.” allowed for the fulfillment of the Prophecy of the Last Son, the second reunification of the Jedi and the Bendu and the birth of a child that was the direct descendant of both Ussej Padric Bac and Annikin Skywalker.

September 9, 2007 – Shikkri
The language of the Shapeshifters, Shikkri, has remained largely unchanged for untold thousands of years, probably due to the promotion of literacy and a written language in around 50,000 BBY. The use of Shikkri is primarily restricted to Shapeshifters because of the race's isolationist nature, though it became more widespread when the Pureblood Shapeshifters unintentionally moved into the Outer Rim planet of Kowak V. It's use in the known part of the galaxy mostly died out with the eradication of nearly all of the Pureblood Shapeshifters in 3953 BBY. Because this incident drew the Lorsanan Shapeshifters away from the galaxy as a whole for fear the same would happen to them, only a few remaining Purebloods are known to use this language, and then only with each other.

Shikkri is typically very flowing and easy to say quickly, with very few 'harsh' sounds. This is a kind of anomaly, considering a Shapeshifter's vocal cords and general oral and jaw construction, but it is likely that they borrowed vocal cords and skull structures from other creatures of their planet. From evidence in the language construction and phonetics, it is likely that they copied a kind of songbird's vocal capabilities. Shikkri is a phonetic language, and is fairly wide in the amount of races who can accurately pronounce it, though this was probably unintentional. Written Shikkri was at first composed of hard, straight lines due to their limitations because of their claws, but this changed when they discovered opposable thumbs. Their appreciation for aesthetic beauty led them to greatly stylize Shikkri into the curving, flowing letters it is written in modern Shikkri. This also continued the trend in making their language sound musical, and easy to incorporate into music.

September 16, 2007 – Battle of Abyssion V
The Battle of Abyssion V, or the Massacre at Abyssion V as it was known previously, was one of the initial battles between the Jedi's Army of Light and New Sith Empire during the New Sith Wars. The battle itself ended in a catastrophic loss on all sides, with the armies of the Jedi, Sith, and the enigmatic Army of Darkness all completely decimated.

By this time, the Republic was already beginning to fall apart, and the Jedi had gained immense power in the Senate and Courts. Despite this supposed shift in the balance of power in the political spectrum, the Dark side was growing, and the Sith became an ever present threat for the Jedi of that time.

After a series of skirmishes between Jedi and Sith forces beforehand, both sides learned of an apparently new threat that could quite possibly kill both sides. They searched the Galaxy for the location of this new foe, to little avail. They eventually discovered the foe's location at the remote world of Abyssion V, where the Jedi, the Sith, and this new opponent, led by an extragalactic warlord would lead the largest battle of their time.

September 23, 2007 – Rohi
The Rohi (pronounced: rōhē), or the Angels (pronounced: ānjělz) as they were sometimes referred to in the galaxy at large, were a rarely seen race of what were thought to be immortals. These near-Humans lived on the remote, uncharted world of Adonai, and had a long, mysterious past. There were many of this race, a good fraction living in and around Adonai, and the rest so far-flung and scattered that they seemed nearly extinct to the galaxy as a whole. Though talented at warcraft and were all talented fighters, especially with their innate Force-sensitivity, their wars were few and far between, and their participation in other's wars was rare due to their infrequency outside their own hidden realm.

The Rohi were a quiet, peaceful, nature-loving race governed by a theocracy whose ruler was the Force, which they called the Jiréh. They were also very determined, and were readily willing to eradicate evil when given the chance. However, because of the power given them, when a Rohi did turn to the dark, the results were usually catastrophic and often spanned the universe in its impact. One of the more devastating Rohi to the Known Galaxy was The Prophet of Shatan, who made use of a pivotal time in galactic history to gain power over most races. However, to counter these dark rulers, there were also extremely powerful Rohi dedicated to the light. The most well-known of these warriors for the light was a Rohi named Michael, who later became the Watchman of the Known Galaxy to help it and protect it from the dark when he could.

September 30, 2007 – Lorsanan'sondora
Lorsanan'sondora (meaning Royal Kingdom in Shikkri) was the homeworld of the polymorphic Lorsanan Shapeshifters. Originally dwelling near the edge of the Chiss Ascendancy, it was fitted with a gigantic Shannet (hyperdrive) so as to move it to a safe location at will for security reasons. It was surrounded by Lorsanan Tetres, a massive shipyard that formed an entire ring about the planet. The planet's location is unknown. The planet was of a fairly temperate variety, and spawned many intriguing creatures, all with very wide gene pools. This, perhaps, was caused by the sulfur-based ecosystem of the planet, a rarity among most planets, but this was unconfirmed. For the Shapeshifters, Lorsanan'sondora was the picture of home, and most would usually settle on planets like it - heavily forested and temperate. It is little wonder, as the planet was perfectly suited to the race and was very conducive to longer life in them.

The planet's history consisted of a long line of Shapeshifti kings, called Shaviantarths, who led the Shapeshifters in various directions. When the planet was introduced to technology, Lorsanan'sondora flourished with the wealth of new information. This sudden economical boom allowed for a war. After that, the planet's people were led into a realm of expansion, which lasted for many long years. When the expansion slowed, Lorsanan'sondora's people began to split and cause schisms within the mainline Shapeshifters. After the most well-known of these splinter groups was almost completely wiped out, it drove the people of Lorsanan'sondora to move their planet and to further isolate themselves in some unknown corner of the galaxy.

October 7, 2007 – Order of Sovereignty
The Order of Sovereignty, also known as the Sovereign Order, previously known as the Order of the Sons, was a near-ancient organization of Force sensitives who were known for their code of devotion and loyalty. The Sovereign Order were the guardians of the Sovereign King and Jaratenge in the Galactic Republic, and after the Imperial raid on their temple, eventually became the among the most famous of the various groups that relied on the Force for their power.

Their reputation was respected, if not feared. Though they, for the most part, kept to themselves and their planet, the power and influence they held was admirable to say the least. This alone led to many attempts on the Sovereign King's life, all in vain. Still, the dependency the Order of Sovereignty and the planet of Jaratenge had on the King was still widely known to be their greatest, yet only weakness.

The Sovereign Order was led by a two councils, namely, the High Council of Sovereignty and the Branch Vexus Council. The Sovereign Order was thought to have nearly faced extinction; during the Raid on the Shrine of Vexus, the Order had just over 4,000 compared to the 700,000 509th troops.

Almost two thousand years after the attack, the Order of Sovereignty rose to be a military power to be reckoned with, and eventually launched the dual wars: the Subjection Wars&mdash;a shadow war launched to conquer strategic space and planets around known space, and the Sovereignty Campaign&mdash;a massive war that was divided the galaxy between the unknown regions and known space.

October 14, 2007 – Prophecies of The Skywalker
The Prophecies of The Skywalker were a set of writings that foretold the coming of kings, rulers and other legendary figures throughout history. From the time of the exodus off of Had Abaddon to his death on Kal'Shabbol, many visions came to The Skywalker which led him to write eight distinct prophecies that would span over one hundred thousand years and multiple galaxies. He wrote them within his own sacred journals and they were eventually some of the first entries of the Journal of the Whills after the establishment of the Order of the Whills.

The coming of many noteworthy figures in history was prophesied by The Skywalker before his death. Such figures include Ussej Padric Bac, his descendants, Carden Mannux, Darth Bane, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker and Patrick Keylan Bac, a man who lived on Earth after the Jedi Bendu were forced to exile themselves there.

Because such notable figures in history were prophesied by The Skywalker, the prophecies themselves gained galactic attention over time. Had it not been for the efforts of Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker and Ussej Padric Bac LXIV, they would not have seen the light of day for thousands of more years as it was the reunification of the Jedi Order and the Bendu Order into the New Jedi Bendu Order that allowed them to be published for the galaxy-at-large to read and cherish.

October 21, 2007 – K'Anaverous
K'Anaverous (pronounced: kə ənävərəs) was a Sith of an unknown, dragon-like race. He was taught by the Ash Beetle Jestefad the ways of the Force, but he honed the ability to both possess individuals and to feed off of souls and manipulate their zombie-like bodies. He claimed many lives this way, sometimes a planet at a time, but his claims were limited to a small sector in the Outer Rim. These followers of his eventually began to decay and become skeletal, as he continually used them to bring the souls of those he could not reach to him. As his slaves had no life, they usually endlessly wandered the void of space in search for victims, thus their name the Wanderers. However, one of the Wanderers, known only as the Wandering Chief, regained enough of his will to rebel against K'Anaverous, even using some of the Wanderers to bring souls to the Wandering Chief. Using his powers, as he seemed to be Force-sensitive, he locked away K'Anaverous's soul inside the Sith's own holocron and destroyed his body.

However, after waiting several thousand years still conscious, a curious young half-Shapeshifter named Jador came across his holocron, and he entered his soul. However, only able to use the abilities Jador had, and only able to deceive him and not completely possess him just yet, K'Anaverous waited until the boy matured. He took control over him when he had turned the boy to his way of thinking. Using his new body, K'Anaverous once more began once more to devour souls. He was finally defeated when Jador's soul attempted to regain control over his body, commencing a mental showdown. As Jador was more powerful than K'Anaverous, he destroyed the soul-eater, freeing himself.

October 28, 2007 – Norris Raddek
Norris "Brutalidon" Raddek was an Ithorian born in a small village on the Bacta world of Thyferra. He was trained in the ways of Mancery, an ancient way of mastering the Force used by the old Sith, by Boli Delish. He set up the small alliance between the Jedi and the Mancers as his first order of business. He was later possessed by the first Mancer Lord Grakon and nearly brought Boli to his death. He was killed years later during a battle to destroy the Jedi, still possessed.

Brutalidon was one of the most powerful Mancer Lords, along with his mentor and friend Boli Delish. He had mastered the ability to use elements during battle and used this technique many times to his advantage, defeating many Jedi and Sith.

When Brutalidon was killed during the final fight with the Jedi, his spirit and the spirit of Grakon left his body. Through this final fight, Grakon did accomplish his goal and struck fear into the eyes of the galaxy once again as three Jedi Council members were killed, many more injured.

Brut's spirit then resided in the body of Jedi Master Dexon Kyjar, giving him advice and the power of Force Mancery, but also giving him the taint of the Dark Side.

November 4, 2007 – Battle of Bestine IV
The Battle of Bestine IV was one of the very first battles of the Clone Wars. Upon Bestine IV's secession from the Republic, the Chancellor convinced the Jedi Council and the Senate that Bestine IV would soon lure other systems in the Inner Rim away from the Republic, so it must be brought back as soon as the Clones were able. The Jedi High Council issued an attack force that was to be commanded by the Jedi High Generals Plo Koon and Ki-Adi Mundi.

Because the Grand Army of the Republic was led to believe that this planet was a CIS stronghold, they prepared maneuvers recommended by the Republic's chief tacticians. Desiring to be prepared for anything, the two Jedi Generals recruited the best pilots they had to offer to lead the space assault, and prepared an overwhelming amount of Clones to dominate the battlefront.

As the battle began to progress, however, it became clear that the planet was neither well-defended nor a valuable resource to the Separatists, as the Republic and the Jedi were led to believe. It was just a world drawn into a power struggle, a lone planet wishing to stay neutral in this Galactic conflict. However, due to the Jedi's actions, the planet, along with its Senator, Tibarn Aeglos, officially joined the CIS.

November 11, 2007 – Hasti Zaadvala
Hasti Zaadvala was a Verpine Jedi Master in the old Jedi Order, one of the few survivors of Order 66, and the creator and leader of the Verpine army. He was highly intelligent and full of skill, which lead him to several victories in the Clone Wars, the Great Jedi Purge, and many other battles. He also served as the Jedi Watchman of Nickel One, his home planet.

Other than being all these things, he was a very accomplished lightsaber swordsman. Although not being able to learn several forms of lightsaber combat completely, he studied each and mastered each halfway. This made him a very capable opponent in lightsaber combat because he was able to switch form to form, making the other duelist confused. He could do several different force powers, as well. Other than this, he was a skilled computer hacker, and hacked all kinds of files during the Clone Wars.

Hasti was the first, last, and only leader and creator of the Verpine army. He captured countless planets during his life. During the Clone Wars, he helped capture Jabiim, Kamino, Felucia, and Nickel One. While in command of the Verpine army, he captured Duniir, Nickel One, Mygeeto, and Murkhana. His generals looked up to him when in command. Other than being in control of the Verpine army, during the Clone Wars, he lead the 38th Armored Division along with Commander Ryan.

November 18, 2007 – Wanderers
The Wanderers were the remains of the bodies of those whose soul had been devoured by the Sith Lord K'Anaverous or The Wandering Chief. Both of these 'soul-eaters' would reanimate the bodies of the victims after the loss of their soul, as one would a puppet. They had no will, existing only to bring the souls of sentients to their master, and with each soul stolen another Wanderer was created. The manner of their collecting souls was nightmarish, spawning many ‘ghost stories’ about them along the Outer Rim, where they most commonly preyed. The Wanderers resembled tall, skeletal humanoid beings that were only encountered in the regions of space beyond the Outer Rim, but before they were banished there, they could be found as far near the core as the Mid Rim. They were non-corporeal, appearing to lack any substance. They existed in space as they traveled for thousands of years between planets, wandering aimlessly. Though their bodies were at first similar as to when the Wanderer was truly alive, the bodies decayed into the specter-like creatures they are frequently seen as.

At first they did not kill their victims, allowing them to become more Wanderers, but after The Wandering Chief took control of them, he demanded that all victims be killed for personal reasons. The Wanderers frequently attacked wayward spacecraft and stole the souls of their occupants. Because of how intoxicating their souls were, the Wanderers frequently went after Force-sensitives. After the last of their masters was destroyed, the Wanderers continued stealing souls, this time for themselves, with the automation of a machine. They continued to haunt the deep spacelanes and would continue to do so until the galaxy’s end.

November 25, 2007 – Abigaile Jade Kenobi
Abigaile Jade Kenobi Clan Fett was a Human/Zeltron hybrid. She was the wife of renegade Jedi Knight Nathaniel Kenobi and the mother of Abigaile Kenobi. Her resourcefulness as a bounty hunter and Jedi helped to liberate the Kaminoan people from potential slavery at the hand of the Galactic Empire.

After her mother died during childbirth on Mandalore, she was adopted by Jango Fett. When she grew up, Fett taught her everything he knew and, after she passed a test made by Fett, she started to begin bounty hunting as a solo act. Her "winnings" were always sent to fund the cloning factories of Kamino.

The Purge of the Jedi and the introduction of the Galactic Empire brought two distinctive changes to her life. The first was the arrival of her future husband, and the second was her training in the Force by Asajj Ventress. Following the Battle of Kamino, she was forced to flee along with the rest of the planet. She helped to find their new home and founded the planet's first Jedi Temple with Nathan.

However, Nathan's arrogance and pride led to marital problems, and following the birth of their daughter, she left Novus Kamino Prime for Tatooine. She was captured by smugglers and imprisoned on Wayland. Nathan finally realized his mistake and went to rescue her, but she died in the skirmish that followed, but not before telling him that she had forgiven him.

December 2, 2007 – Darth Krayt
Darth Krayt was a former Jedi Knight during the and later a Learner, Sith Knight, Sith Lord and a Dark Lord of the Decreton Empire during, and following the Successors War. Born A'Sharad Hett, Hett was a promising Jedi throughout the waning days of the Old Republic. Following the Krayt took to founding his own Sith Order, and settled upon Korriban as his headquarters.

During the Krayt's Sith harassed the forces of both sides before, during and after Krayt's capture by the Yuuzhan Vong warrior. Krayt's escape, and the eventual defeat of the Yuuzhan Vong left the Sith on Korriban free to interfere with the lives of those in the galaxy, particularly during the, as part of his alliance with. Following the conflict Krayt's Order was absorbed into the Sith Order of Decreto, and Krayt trained under the tutelage of two Decreton Sith Masters, the second being Darth Debello.

Following his overthrow of his Master in 126 ABY, Krayt slowly reclaimed all the Sith territories lost to the usurper, Darth Proditor and, within three years had become Emperor, and head of the Sith Council. He would later go on to rule the galaxy in a fair and just way, but made sure that no opposition to his power went unchecked.

December 9, 2007 – Ada Karr
Ada Karr or as she was originally known, Ada Fey'lya, was a female Bothan Jedi Master. She was the wife of Udo Karr and the mother of Derran Karr. Ada was born into the wealthy family of the Fey'lyas, and their legacy would haunt her for the remainder of her life, as she would have to deal with them following the Great Schism.

At the age of two, Ada was found to be Force-sensitive by the Jedi Watchman Julo'fen Marke and sent to the Jedi Temple to train. She later was given a Master along with her friend, Udo Karr. Following the Jedi Purge, she was forced to flee with her Master to save the planet Kamino.

After the planet Novus Kamino Prime was found and settled, she became one of the first Jedi to join the praxeum built there by Nathaniel Kenobi and his wife Abigaile Jade Kenobi. Following Abigaile's death and Nathan's self-exile, she was put under the tutelage of Master Plett. She became romantically involved with Udo and they would marry, which then gave way for their first child to be born: Derran.

After the false savior Nat-ahn Mandrex had taken control over the majority of the Colonies, she was one of the few who remained true to her Master's teachings and helped his grandson to free them. Tragedy struck when the Fey'lya family tried to bring her back into their clutches, but she was able to escape. Even worse than her treacherous family, the Sith Order of Decreto ended her life during the Battle of Almania.

December 16, 2007 – Battle of Almania
The Battle of Almania was fought between the allied forces of Almania and the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People, against the Sith Order of Decreto. It would show the besieged members of the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances that resistance was ultimately useless against someone as powerful as the Sith.

Almania would find itself a member of the Decreton Empire and all of its resources would be sent to their new new Sith masters for their grandoise schemes. Future historians would look back at this battle and say that it wasn't a battle fought between fleets and starfighters, but it was more between the wills of the two sides' leaders: Darth Abeonis and Nathaniel Kenobi Solo. Although, Nathan lost in the end, his resolve for ousting the Sith rose exponentially, while Abeonis was content with the victory and the temporary loss of a fellow strategist who, in a different lifetime, he could have called friend.

The battle also saw the end of many feuds that had been boiling against others since before the. Such long-standing rivalries came to an end. Some tragic, like the passion-fueled duel between Ada Karr and Darth Bosszú. Others, brought an end to a necessary evil and strenghthened the bonds of friendship, as was the case for Ichi Go and Renton Thur'ston in their duel against Darth Gloed and Darth Divat. With the end of these, the Jedi would gain power, but would also be reminded of how far one could go to attain victory.

December 23, 2007 – Force shield
Force Shield was a relatively simple defensive Force maneuver that was also known as Protection Bubble. With this power, the user could create a nearly impenetrable semitransparent sphere around their body that could deflect or absorb attacks via blasters or lightsabers, and could block physical blows. In most cases, it could also prevent harmful Force powers from reaching its user. In most cases, its use was regulated to only the above action, but those skilled in its use or those whose ability in the Force was regulated mostly to it used the bubble of protection for a wide range of activities due to its versatility.

Shields were fairly easy to use and usually did not require much concentration. Their size ranged anywhere from infinitesimal to to gargantuan, though the latter took much more concentration. Shields could be moved, fluctuated, or even regulated to let only certain things in and other things out. Despite this, the Force shield was not commonly used among the Jedi, as it was nearly replaced with the form-fitting Force Protection in most circles, and all other uses for it could be done with other Force powers. Those proficient in creating shields or limited to it were known as sheildmakers.

Two known users are and Zenethir Rodiron.

December 30, 2007 – Vaskar
The Vaskar was a secret policing agency set up by Skyu Lon on Dorin to help control the crime. It was the counter to the passive nature of the Baran Do, in that should a conflict not be avoided, there would be a force there able to stop it.

The Vaskar had a fair number of well known people in it's ranks over the years of it's existance including Skyu Lon as the head of the Vaskar, Err Lupe and Dorn Atun. Over the years, some non-Kel'Dor joined the force in hopes of keeping the planet's infrastructure intact and keep the Baran Do respected. These people included Filose Naj, Dak Grenlar and Aras Doplin.

During the early stages of the Vaskar, the organization was located in the Baran Do Tower, along with the Sage Council. This changed as more members started coming in and a need for a real head quarters arose. The Vaskar HQ, a large building just north of the Baran Do Tower was created to house the Vaskar and also substituting as a prison. Eventually, bases were constructed aacross the galaxy on Coruscant, Kashyyyk, Nar Shaddaa and Manaan as examples.

The group would exist prominently before being disbanded during Lassavouu's leadership, then picked up again by the Wookiee Grrwooken. With strong leadership once again, the group would last for almost four more centuries before the last remnants were destroyed by the Sith on Yavin IV. The leader at that time, Filose Naj III, was killed aboard the Death Star fighting Lord Vader, giving the Rebels the time to escape.

January 6, 2008 – Unit 8311
Unit 8311 was a rogue CIS battle droid who survived the Clone Wars and would go on to form a major criminal organisation, the Steel Legion. Due to a programming glitch in his production, he was intelligent, had a free will, and had emotions. He had a somewhat cynical personality, which over the years would develop into a slightly more understanding one.

8311 had a somewhat turbulent history, especially during the Galactic Civil War, in which he was almost killed by Imperials and was forced to join the Rebellion. However, he would return to his homeworld of Hypori, where he began his return to power.

8311 would later reform and voluntarily relinquish control of the Legion, and in the aftermath of the Yuuzhan Vong War, he would take control of some systems devastated by the war, expanding his influence.

Over the course of his life, he woud have many bodies and forms, being a droid, and was intelligent and scheming. He also possessed superfast reflexes, enabling him to destroy all but the most powerful opponents within a matter of seconds when in an armed body.

January 13, 2008 – Filose Naj
Filose Naj was a powerful Falleen spy and mercenary during the late stages of The Great Sovereign Crusades. He had many jobs during this time period, many of which conflicted eachother greatly and got himself on the wanted list by nearly every faction.

Eventually, Filose gave up his spy-work and attempted to work towards a life of good doing. He went to Dorin and assisted in the policing there, joining the Vaskar. He would later be appointed the leader of the group and be the greatest that it had ever seen, leading the group to fame as well as galactic respect.

Filose had many positions during his life, including leader of the Vaskar, and head of defense for the Jedi and Prime Minister of Falleen. He would later form his own group in the outer-rim called The Fist of Naj, which would become a lesser version of the Vaskar. After all of these successes he would be appointed the Minister of Defense for the Republic, and lead the Republic through many victories.

He had killed a great number of wrong doers in his life, including a Dark Lord of the Sith, a Mandalore and an evil Kel'Dor named Dorn Atun. Though he did not like killing these people, he knew it was necesarry to preserve the peace on Coruscant and in the Republic.

Filose was married to a Falleen female named Shana Cech, who would become the Prime Minister of Falleen. They had a son together, Dak Naj, named after a great hero; Dak Grenlar. They would live on Falleen, and Filose would return to them anytime he got a break in his duties with the Republic.

Filose would die when invaders tried killing his wife because of her leadership on Falleen. He protected her with his life and when the odds became too much, he exploded the secluded building he and the attackers were in, killing himself to save his wife's life.

January 20, 2008 – Tulak Hord (Solus)
Tulak Hord was a Human Mandalorian Dark Lord of the Sith who lived during the days of the Galactic Republic. He was well-known for his talent with a lightsaber, despite some of the early restrictions. He was taken into the Order at a young age, and, after he was Knighted, began to question the philosophies of the Jedi. In a search to center himself and be alone, he came across a giant battlestation named the Andromeda. When he later turned to the dark side on persuasion of the current Dark Lord of the Sith, subsequently killing him and taking the mantle himself, he returned to the Andromeda feeder ship to wage his private war against the Jedi. He married fellow Mandalorian Chirene Arenzu, who was talented at posing as Jedi Knight despite having no Force-sensitivity. She ran away from him when she found she was pregnant for fear of what Tulak would do to her baby. After Tulak had killed many Jedi, a Shisavanen Jedi master named Strider cast the Andromeda into a moon, destroying it. Tulak later killed Strider for what he had done, continuing his massecre without the power of the Andromeda. He was later confronted by his son, where he was killed in an acid pool.

January 27, 2008 – Vujaara dragon
The Vujaara dragon was a large, flying carnivorous reptile native to Jaratenge, and was infamously famous for it natural, yet uncanny, abilities to breath fire. Living in packs, the Vujaara dragon was a dangerous and fierce predator. Females grew up to eighty meters while males could grow up to 100 meters. Armed with sharp talons, brutal fangs, and the powerful ability to spew fire, the Vujaara dragon was the dominate predator of Jaratenge.

The Vujaara dragons, especially the rare Force-sensitive Ríoga Vujaara dragons, were uncommon sights. They were often adapted into legend, and typically a tragic one. The best known Jaratenge legend and folk tale revolves around the Vujaara dragon, and is known as one of Jaratenge's greatest tragedies, specifically because it was a true story. Although the legend, known as the "Tale of the Siblings", was considered sad, it was also considered a lesson of loyalty. The fact that the alpha male Vujaara dragon search tirelessly for the young of it's pack, showed it's devotion to it's own. The tale, though, was a double-edged sword.

On one hand, some of the people saw the Vujaara dragons are brutish beasts, destroying all in their path. On the other hand, some saw the alpha male Vujaara dragon's actions as a good example, disregarding the carnage caused by it, naturally. Many more tales about Vujaara dragons in regards to power or wisdom could be linked to the first legend. Eventually, the Vujaara dragons were seen as a powerful mount. In time, the Grand Army of Jaratenge used them as special mounts typically called "Dragon Riders".

February 3, 2008 – WraithX-Beta Interceptor


The WraithX-Beta Interceptor was a stealth starfighter capable of both atmospheric and space capabilities and the successor to the highly praised WraithX-Alpha Interceptor, produced by Aratech. The WraithX was designed and built as a stealth fighter, and was near impossible to detect when in stealth mode with a combination of color-changing paint and the many specially designed systems to run softer and to let off less gas and radiation exhaust. The Beta was popular enough to produce two variation, the Cobrex Interceptor, which was a non-stealth heavy fighter version of the WraithX, and the SpyderX Stealth Scout, a weaponless scout version of the Beta. Eventually, Aratech created a successor for it, the WraithX-Delta Interceptor as well. The Chiss also created a varient, called the Chiss Bladewing.

The Galactic Alliance also used the WraithX-Beta, replacing their obsolete StealthX's with them because of the superior design and workmanship. The WraithX-Beta was probably the biggest cause for its company's rise to power during from 60 ABY to 87 ABY, because of its raging popularity as well as the income it brought in. The Aratech-produced fighter was in heavy use from 55 ABY to 62 ABY by both the GA and other security forces in the roles of ambusher, a new classification created specially for the WraithX-Beta to describe its job as a heavy stealth fighter.

February 10, 2008 – Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi


The Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi was an ancient and noble monastic peacekeeping organization dedicated to serving and protecting the people of the Ashlan Expanse and, later, the Old Republic until it was broken apart in a schism caused by the Supreme Chancellor Contispex fifteen thousand years before the rise of the Galactic Empire. The organization derives its name from the birth name of The Skywalker, which was “Jedi Bendu”, and the Ophuchi, the people he led in the exodus from Had Abaddon to Kal'Shabbol. Before it’s decline, the order was unified through its belief in Yahweh, the God of the Universe, and his omnipotent presence that The Skywalker referred to as the Force of Others. Wielders of the mystic energy and signature long swords, the Jedi Bendu were revered as guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy.

A very religious people, the Jedi Bendu had an ancient set of prophecies that had been written by The Skywalker in the years leading up to his death. The descendants of Jonathan Bac, the first Supreme Chancellor of the Old Republic and the man responsible for the ultimate cooperation between the Republic and the Jedi Bendu and, later, the Jedi, went on to fulfill many of the prophecies, most notably the Prophecy of the Voyager and the Prophecy of the Last Son. After the creation of the new Jedi Bendu Order, some of its members went on to fulfill whole prophecies and parts of others.

Solving major crisis’ such as the Kal'Shabbol Civil War and the conflict with the Legions of Lettow, otherwise known as the minions of Xendor Taral, the Jedi Bendu had come to be trusted above all else by the citizens of the Republic. In the final years of their rule, they challenged the legality of many programs set up by Supreme Chancellor Contispex. In order to end what he perceived to be a threat to his rule, Contispex manipulated many on the Jedi Bendu Council of Masters into drafting a code and reforming their order into a more loyal system. However, two council members, Zios Malachor and Adena Qel-Droma, refused to do so and spoke out against the Supreme Chancellor. Qel-Droma eventually gave in to the new reforms that gave birth to the Jedi Order, but she was locked away in carbon freeze and became lost in space for what the Supreme Chancellor labeled as her “crimes”. Malachor and his followers fled to the Ashlan Expanse and formed the Bendu Order on Kal’Shabbol. The two orders would not be reunified into a new Jedi Bendu Order until the death of Emperor Palpatine and the fall of his Galactic Empire on Coruscant.

February 17, 2008 – Androc Montra
Androc Montra was Human born on  in 1,707 BBY. Androc was raised under the full protection of his father, Grado Montra, during his early years, due to the dangerous streets of Onderon, which held rival families. Androc's mother had died in childbirth, so Androc was raised by many different nannies and babysitters. Due to his inability to leave the Montra estate's grounds, Androc received a private education in his home, alongside his best friend and cousin, Caldros Jevaa Montra. As a young child, Androc gained an interest in computer consoles, blasters, and other gadgets, often building things from scratch. When he came of age, Grado trained Androc how to fight and fire a blaster. After Androc's father was murdered during his wedding party in 1,689 BBY, Androc became obsessed with gaining power and finding who had ordered the assassination of his father. With the death of his father, Androc became the leader of the Montra family.

Suspecting his father's widow, Clari Valabra, to be the one who ordered Grado's murder, Androc conspired against her, which ended up killing her. However, Androc's conspiracy remained a secret from everyone else, except for Caldros, who had helped him kill Clari. Following her death, Androc rose security measures of his estate and made a pact with the Valabra family, to fight together in case of war. Not long after, the two families had to fight together against the Tilokatan family. In the end, the Tilokatan family was obliterated, and the Montra-Valabra Allegiance was victorious. After the Second Onderon Civil War, Androc had dealings with the Republic, Onderonian Government and the other Five Families in order to gain more power.

In 1,677 BBY, the Valabra family discovered Androc's secret, and their pact was broken. The two families turned on each other, and battle at the Montra estate broke out, nearly killing everyone who participated in it. In the end of it all, it was revealed to Androc that it had been Caldros who had ordered the hit on Grado, and that it was Caldros who ultimately betrayed Androc. The two fought each other, with the duel ending in both of their deaths.

Androc's legacy would live on for a long time after his death. Androc's cherished dog, [Hunab, never forgot his master, and refused to provide loyalty to anyone else. Because of that, the dog was killed after he retaliated with his new owners. Androc's legacy also lived on through the historical records, and Historian Valen Sarastan was the Onderonian author known to document and share most of Androc's legacy as the Fallen Conspirator.

February 24, 2008 – Dark Magic
Dark Magic was a branch of dark side Force powers which originated in the ancient temples of O'Tayum. The powers, or "magic" was created by the native ancient Thr'yn, whom relied on the dark side for both power and survival. During the old times, the "Dark Magic" became popular and commonly used around many of the old tribes on O'Tayum. However, due to the amount of power each power or "spell" demanded from it's master, many Thr'yn slowly succumbed to the dark side of the Force until their power dwindled to nothing. Eventually, a civil war on O'Tayum broke out, and most of the tribes of O'Tayum fell to the power of the dark side. Following the civil war, both the powers of "Dark Magic" and the ancient temples were lost and forgotten.

For the following thousands of years, the Thr'yn evolved into more peaceful sentients, who had forgotten all about the corruption that plagued their planet for so many years, in the past. Unfortunately for the Thr'yn, however, one untamed and ill tempered Thr'yn, Voi'dahmos, discovered the lost temple that still held the power of the dark side within. Since the Jedi Knight Narod Antrell had been teaching Voi'damos to use the Force, Voi'damos was able to instead harness and obtain the knowledge of the dark side, rediscovering the "evil" Dark Magic.

Voi'damos revived each spell's terror upon his home planet, using it to forge his empire, the O'Tayum Empire, and to rule the planet entirely. He also used the Dark Magic to train many apprentices who were capable of using the Force, and use them as his personal exectioners. Voi'damos and his Dark Magic were not completely destroyed forevermore until after the Great War of O'Tayum, where Narod and his Jedi Army were able to stop the darkness from taking over the planet once again, as it had in the past. Following the death of Voi'damos, his followers, and the ancient dark side temple, Dark Magic was forgotten forever.

Before they were forgotten, the powers or "spells" of Dark Magic were Var'loppu, Rah'gah'stae, Kas'kae, and Sul'fij. Each power possessed horrible abilities which were used to kill, control, torture, and completely absorb the life force of others, respectively. The spells, grouped together, were dubbed "Dark Magic" by the ancient Thr'yn.

March 2, 2008 – Jar'Kata
Jar'Kata was a form of lightsaber combat developed by Jace Kyjar. It utilized two lightsabers, one normal sized in the dominant hand with a short lightsaber in the off-hand. The point of this form is to suprise the enemy greatly in shutting off your dominant lightsaber to break past defenses and make a quick strike, while the off-hand was still there to defend. The form was inspired by both Jar'Kai and Trakata, combining them to make a deadly form.

The form was created as a means of surprising the enemy and force them to alter their own style. There were many dangers in shutting off one's lightsaber in order to attack, which was the reason behind the use of the second lightsaber. The form has a deadly attack, coupled with an adequate defense, possibly making it a more deadly form than Juyo or Ataru.

Jace Kyjar would invent this form as a spark of his own creativity. He would first attempt it in a tournament fight against the Sith beast Khavaal, and failed, then again in training with his master Kyle Stellar. That time nearly worked, but he as blown away by a force wave. He would perfect the form upon being named a Jedi Knight.

March 9, 2008 – Veneradi
The Veneradi, which meant Honor Guards in Galactic Basic, were large, bipedal reptilian humanoids from the planet Venera. The Veneradi were very honorable sentients, who creating allegiances with neighboring planets and had unified their entire species as one large covenant composed of all the Veneradi clans, named the Veneradi Covenant. The Veneradi Covenant was a militaristic dictatorship, by description, though the leaders of the society were not harsh, cruel, nor ill-willed. The society of the Veneradi was instead very formal and religious, following the teachings of their god, Kodo. They spoke the language by the same name as their species.

The Veneradi were very physically built. They were taller and usually stronger than most other Humanoid species, including Humans and their greatest enemies, the Locadi. Their reptilian traits allowed them to survive the natural disasters and unnatural disasters brought onto their homeworld. Those in the Veneradi military added even more protection to themselves by wearing strong and resistant armor according to their ranking.

Known to most other galactic beings as Veners, the Veneradi were known for their prowess in combat and in war, as well as for their loyalty. The Veneradi were great swordsmen, marksmen and technicians. With their unique weapons and extensive training, the Veneradi were very skilled and prepared for combat. The Lords, the highest rank in the Covenant, were highly skilled swordsmen that could wield their blades, the Rapa Dyo, with the same skill as a force-sensitive Jedi Knight.

March 16, 2008 – Jonathan Bac


Jonathan Bac was a legendary Alderaanian Admiral, Ambassador to the Coalition of Planets and the first Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. In the role of Admiral of the Alderaanian fleet, he was responsible for the decisive final campaign against the Anarchic Brotherhood of Planets that brought the Unification War to a close. As the Ambassador to the Coalition of Planets, he worked closely with the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi to ensure a smooth transition between numerous regional governments and one galactic democracy. In his role as ambassador, he also drafted the Galactic Charter and was the first to sign it at the ceremony that witnessed the founding of the Galactic Republic.

One of the most important politicians in the early history of the Galactic Republic, Jonathan was credited with saving the House of Organa and the Corellian Empire from destruction and for paving the way to the founding of the Galactic Republic. He was also responsible for allowing the Jedi Bendu, and later the Jedi, to become a major presence in the day-to-day affairs of the Galactic Republic. It was also foretold that his descendants were those spoken of in the Prophecies of The Skywalker. During the Ashlan Civil War, the Great Sovereign Crusades and the Galactic Civil War, that foretelling was proved correct when Ussej Padric Bac, Ussej Padric Bac II, Ussej Padric Bac III and Ussej Padric Bac LXIV fulfilled passages within the prophecies. Jonathan was also well-remembered and revered for literally setting up the brilliant democratic system that lasted for twenty-five thousand years after the beginning of his term in office.

March 23, 2008 – Ichi Go
Ichi Go was a male Human/Arkanian hybrid and a Jedi Master. He was also one of five people that the Rutsenafo scientist, Crie Krobos, had experimented on at an early age. He was one of the most long-lived Jedi Knights the Galaxy had ever known, living for hundreds of years.

Born into a scandal, Ichi Go was quietly brought to Nar Shaddaa to live away from his family, who were ashamed and afraid of his existence. Thanks to the intervention of a visiting Jedi Master, he and another hybrid&mdash;who later became his best friend, Renton Thur'ston&mdash;were saved and brought to Novus Kamino Prime.

Being Force-sensitive, he was taught along with Renton by the Jedi Masters there, until the Great Schism, where several of their Masters died in the first of many attacks in the war. Deciding that the way the leaders of Novus Kamino Prime were carrying the war were wrong, they hooked up with the Kelakan resistance and stayed there until they were delivered by the true savior, Nathaniel Kenobi Solo.

He would later meet his greatest foe, and half-brother, the dreaded Darth Gloed when the latter wished to extract revenge for the pain he had suffered from the scandal. Several meetings and battles proved ineffective between the two, until the Sith Order of Decreto came and took Novus Kamino Prime.

Forced to flee, Ichi and the remaining Jedi joined with Nathan to form the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People. Over the next few years, they would cripple and scuttle several Sith operations. Eventually, Ichi fell into trouble with Gloed again, but emerged victorious. He would eventually join the Galactic Commonwealth and the Jedi Autocracy as well, due to his ability to remain practically immortal.

After several years of living his life looking eternally young, he sought the help of his old friends who were also suffering from the same thing and set out to find what he truly was. Investigations found that he had been tampered on at birth and that he would soon have to enter a state of hibernation for untold centuries, awaiting the day he would be needed next.

Waking up in the Dark Age, he met a new member of the Five, a redeemed Dark Jedi, a pirate crew, three new Force organizations, and a descendant of his former mentor. All of these helped to give Ichi and the other members of the Five, their true purpose in life.

March 30, 2008 – Bombing of Pho Ph'eah
The Bombing of Pho Ph'eah was a major turning point in the Third Sith Empire's war effort against the Galactic Republic during the Great Territorial War. The Jedi Council was given what they believed to be reliable information by Jedi Master Kit Corwin Rendar stating that Sith forces had infiltrated the major technological and manufacturing centers on Pho Ph’eah and that they were attempting to build up a far more massive army than they already had. With the approval of the Galactic Senate, the Jedi Order and the Republic military launched an orbital bombardment of the planet in an effort to take out the Sith forces on the surface.

Following the conclusion of the battle, Republic scouts made their way to the surface and concluded that there was no trace of any Sith forces either before or during the battle. When Fleet Captain La'El Montrose confronted Rendar about the faulty intelligence, the Jedi Master revealed that there was, in fact, one Sith Lord on the surface. Rendar revealed himself to be Darth Ravinos, the apprentice of the Dark Lordess Viea, and that he had planned the attack with intelligence he had fabricated to tarnish the image of the Jedi and the Republic across the galaxy. After skinning Montrose and blowing his skinless remains out an airlock, Ravinos stole the Republic flagship Equinox and was not heard from again for some time.

Ravinos was successful in tarnishing the image of both the Republic and the Jedi, though mostly the Jedi. The public had known that the Dark Lordess was once a Jedi Master, though the fact that another Jedi Master turned to the Dark Side and became her apprentice was far too troubling for them. The Jedi saw their public approval ratings sink and watched as less and less worlds called out for their help in matters both related and not related to the war.

April 6, 2008 – Desnium


Desnium, also dubbed the Assertion Form, was the personal lightsaber combat form created primarily by Narod Antrell throughout his training to Jedi Knighthood. The form was originally known as the Assertion Form to Antrell and his Jedi Master, K'Kruhk, whom assisted Antrell in the development of the form by teaching him the techniques he knew, which primarily stemmed from Ataru, the Aggression Form. The Jedi Master also implemented knowledge of Soresu during Antrell's training, which was subsequently implemented into Desnium.

The form was not deliberately developed, although its development came naturally and became Antrell's custom form. The form received its name in honor of Desnium Antrell, grandfather of Narod Antrell. Antrell found his name in logs and interpreted that he was once a Jedi, and so to further uphold the memory of the fallen Jedi Order, he named his form as such.

Over the years, the form consistently developed, and varied in assertion when applied in battle. Desnium was used throughout the Galactic Civil War, through all the battles that Antrell participated in. The form was used in his own quests alongside K'Kruhk and Zeri Undis, and later alongside the KrypTek Insurgence, the small rebellion group, which later joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

Although Antrell was the only practitioner, he was able to pass down the knowledge of the form to his son Roviik Antrell, once the boy became his Jedi Padawan. Although Desnium was not seen again after Antrell and his group left into the Unknown Regions aboard The Drive, those who Antrell had fought alongside with believed it had left its mark on the galaxy.

April 13, 2008 – Bendu Order
The Bendu Order was an ancient and noble monastic peacekeeping organization headquartered on Kal'Shabbol in the Ashlan Expanse. It was one of two great orders, the other being the Jedi Order, that emerged during a schism within the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi fifteen thousand years before the Galactic Civil War. The Bendu Order was unified through its belief in Yahweh, the God of the universe, and his omnipotent presence known as the Force of Others. The wielders of that mystic energy and signature long swords made out of elements similar to cortosis, the Bendu Knights were revered as the guardians of an everlasting peace in the worlds of the Ashlan Expanse, particularly Had Abaddon, Ondus and Aquilae.

The Bendu Order rarely left their home planet of Kal'Shabbol to fight in conflicts that did not directly pertain to them, though there were three major instances when they did. Under the leadership of Ussej Padric Bac and Ussej Padric Bac II, and with help from Damien Nightblade of the Shadourian Order, the order successfully eliminated the dictatorship of Husen Al-Dubrir of Had Abaddon and Adena Qel-Droma during the Ashlan Civil War. Nearly fifty years later, Ussej Padric Bac III led a holy war with Shadourian Master Ein Nightblade against the Jedi Order, though when it indirectly led to the rise of the Third Sith Empire the Bendu returned to Kal’Shabbol and Ussej Padric Bac III sacrificed his life to destroy Emperor Invidius. Nearly four thousand years later, under the leadership of Ussej Padric Bac LXIV, the Bendu Order helped the Alliance to Restore the Republic destroy the Galactic Empire and the Order of Sith Lords. With the galaxy liberated, Ussej Padric Bac LXIV and Luke Skywalker forged an unprecedented and formed the Second Jedi Bendu Order.

An order of highly religious people, the Bendu had an ancient set of prophecies that had been passed down from the time of The Skywalker, the founder of the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi. Many of their own people, such as members of the Bac family, fulfilled many of the prophecies, while many others were fulfilled by Jedi Knights and Jedi Bendu Knights after the reunification of the Jedi Order and the Bendu Order. Because of the prophecies, as well as what the Bendu had done, the legacy of the Bendu Order lasted long after it had merged with the Jedi Order, even during the crisis with the Prophets of Lettow.

April 20, 2008 – Jaden Korr (Dark Order War)
Jaden Korr was a talented Jedi Knight, and later Dark Jedi, who was born on Coruscant as the son of a Corellian journalist. A student and apprentice of Jedi Master Kyle Katarn, Korr was one of Katarn's most talented apprentices until his turn to the dark side on Taspir III in the year 14 ABY.

Before his life as a Dark Jedi, Jaden was trained in the ways of the Jedi at the academy on Yavin 4. He was trained alongside fellow apprentice Rosh Penin under Kyle Katarn. He participated in various missions for the New Jedi Order against the Disciples of Ragnos with great success, until he left the Jedi Order and took control of the Sith Cult. As the leader of the Dark Order of Korr, Jaden led Imperial attacks on New Republic worlds and gained control of various industrial centers, as well as numerous other strategic locations. However, Jaden's military achievements were eventually eclipsed by his underlings.

Two Sith Lords, Darth Persia and his apprentice, Darth Imperious, had joined Jaden's organization under the guise of Dark Jedi. Darth Persia gained much favor over the other military generals in the Dark Order through various outstanding victories, and eventually decided that Jaden had outlived his usefulness. While commanding a fleet above the Imperial planet Bakura, where Jaden was located at the time, Persia ordered the surface of the planet to be destroyed to ensure that Jaden would not escape the planet alive. Korr's death allowed the Sith to take control of his forces, which were used to forge the Greater Sith Empire.

April 27, 2008 – Ussej Padric Bac


Ussej Padric Bac was a Jedi Knight during the Great Territorial War who later became the Shaman of the Whills, acting as the spiritual leader of the Order of the Whills. He had a hand in many galactic events, such as the Great Territorial War, the organization of the Ophuchi Clan and the acceptance of Annikin Skywalker into the Jedi Order during the Invasion of Utapau. He was also the lover of Laili Jeyna Rendar; although he had what he sometimes felt was a stressful relationship with Laili due to his personality, he later referred to Laili as the love of his life, and even thought about her during the Invasion of Utapau and the conflict's aftermath.

After the Jedi Civil War, Ussej had been in hiding with his Jedi Master, Brarh Kefle, on Corellia, and after the Jedi Order was reorganized following the Second Sith Civil War he was officially trained and became a Jedi Knight. Ussej, along with fellow Jedi Knight Damien Nightblade, was present during the conflict in the Uvena system that formally launched the Great Territorial War, and he fought throughout the entire war. Events during the conflict nearly turned him to the dark side of the Force, although he was able to stay within the light side of the Force. Years later, after having studied both sides of the Force, he fulfilled his destiny and became the Shaman of the Whills.

May 4, 2008 – Darth Malum (New Sith Empire)


Darth Malum, born Cernos Antrell, was a Sith Lord in Darth Ruin's New Sith Empire that hailed from Thule. Cernos was a member of the Antrell family who first, like many Sith Lords, became a Jedi Knight of the Republic. Cernos grew strong in his time with the Jedi under the tutelage of Jedi Master Atria Tulama, and under the secretive mentoring of Phanius, who later became Darth Ruin. After passing his trials of Knighthood, Cernos became more and more involved with Phanius, and he eventually became one of the fifty Jedi Knights to follow Phanius's teachings, which became the New Sith Empire. Upon his induction to the Sith, Cernos dropped his name for the Sith moniker Darth Malum.

Darth Malum eventually was involved in the unofficial civil war within the New Sith Empire, after the bombardment of Sullust that nearly ended his life. After the event, Malum partnered up with fellow victim Darth Mortalis, and together they began to hunt down the traitor, Darth Eradix. What they didn't realize was that Eradix did not act on his own behalf, but on the behalf of a group of conspirators which included Darth Annila. Malum and Mortalis ended up in a duel against Eradix was killed and Malum injured. Malum was later healed by Mortalis.

May 11, 2008 – The Skywalker
The Skywalker, born Jedi Bendu, was the founder of the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi, which was partially named after him, and the first living mortal being to discover and tap into the mystical energies of the Force of Others. After doing so and facing off his darker temptations, Yahweh, the God of the Universe, spoke to him at the peak of Mount Sky and dubbed him The Skywalker. Yahweh revealed to him that the Force of Others was his own omnipotent presence and that he had allowed it to be sensed by mortals to help in the salvation of the galaxy. Yahweh tasked The Skywalker with freeing his chosen people, the Ophuchi, from King Achab Tahrea of Had Abaddon, The Skywalker’s step-brother.

During the battle for paradise, The Skywalker was given the unfortunate task of being the first man to kill in the name of the Force of Others, taking the life of his step-brother. As the battle raged on, however, The Skywalker and the Ophuchi prevailed and found themselves in the midst of a mass exodus from Had Abaddon. They boarded many small starships fled to the Promised Land, the neighboring world called Kal'Shabbol. There, they officially created their order and set up the first Jedi Bendu Enclave.

Before his death, The Skywalker spoke of and recorded many important prophecies that would later echo throughout the ages in the actions of many notable individuals. These writings later became known as the Prophecies of The Skywalker. His contributions to the very early formation of the Galactic Republic, the Jedi Order, the Bendu Order, the numerous Sith Empires and the Order of the Whills were remembered for thousands of years throughout the universe, even on the most primitive of worlds in galaxies far, far away from his own.

May 18, 2008 – Battle of Nar Shaddaa (GDE/Legion)
The Battle of Nar Shaddaa was a fierce battle between the Galactic Droid Empire and the Steel Legion, which started after a communiqué between its leaders went badly wrong. It resulted in a pact between the GDE and Legion, but also caused severe damage to several Nar Shaddaa districts. Both factions took casualties in the battle, and the two commanders themselves--Darth Tyler and Unit 8311--engaged in a ferocious duel on the planet in a refinery, with both of them bringing to brunt their finest abilities and in 8311's case equipment and gadgetry.

Meanwhile, on space and on the ground, both sides focused on outdoing each other in firepower, with large civilian casualties caused in the crossfire. Throughout the battle, the GDE had the advantage in quantity, and the Legion in quality. The two factions soon brought out their finest soldiers and equipment in a bid to overwhelm one another, but this merely led to more destruction being caused. The battle was comparable to the Battle of Coruscant in terms of its epic scale. However, eventually, Tyler and 8311 got so worn down in their duel that both asked one another for a truce, ending the ferocious battle. Both sides took heavy casualties in the battle, which lasted for some time. Fighting between pockets of forces from both sides that had failed to receive communications of the truce would continue for a few weeks.

May 25, 2008 – Ussej Padric Bac LXIV
Ussej Padric Bac LXIV was born to a long line of legendary war heroes, politicians, Jedi Knights, Sith Lords and Bendu High Priests. His most notable ancestors included Jonathan Bac, Ussej Padric Bac, Laili Jeyna Rendar, Kit Corwin Rendar, Ussej Padric Bac II and Ussej Padric Bac III as they had each influenced galactic events for thousands of years after their deaths. He was known to have looked up to them all with high regard, specifically Ussej Padric Bac III due to his conservative viewpoints towards the Jedi Order.

Ussej served as the High Priest of the Bendu Order during the Galactic Civil War. He was reluctant at first to help Mon Mothma after she requested the assistance of the Bendu, but after speaking with the Shaman of the Whills he changed his mind and led the order into the galaxy quickly enough to fight in the first major engagement of the war on the small moon of Endor. There, he first encountered Kane Starkiller. After the battle, he decided to head back to Kal’Shabbol but soon changed his mind and agreed to keep the order in imperial space to help the Alliance. He was instrumental in the major engagements to follow, particularly the Second Battle of Alderaan, the First Battle of Coruscant, the Battle of Bespin and the Battle of Korriban. He had grown to be an informal mentor to Luke Skywalker after Obi-Wan Kenobi was killed and spoke the prophetic words of the Archangel Ranka Darkbroode to Luke before the redemption of Anakin Skywalker.

After the war ended, he and Luke co-founded the Second Jedi Bendu Order, stationed off of Coruscant and Kal’Shabbol. He was instrumental in the successes of the Reunification War, but was unable to prevent the Jedi Bendu from splitting in two. He and Luke knew that the Rizen Order stood a great chance in winning the war, so in order to preserve their order they decided that Ussej would travel as far away from the capital as they could and Luke would stay behind. In the end, Luke was able to lead the Jedi Bendu into a victorious final campaign against the Rizen Order, though he was unable to contact Ussej after the victory. Ussej and his fellow Jedi Bendu travelers found their way into an intergalactic wormhole and were thrust thousands of light years to Earth where Ussej remained until his death.

June 1, 2008 – Dark Guardians of Lettow
The Dark Guardians of Lettow was the official name for a group of warriors founded by the self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness Carden Mannux that practiced the Dark Side of the Force. The group was created based upon the teachings, writings and philosophies of Xendor Taral, Marka Ragnos and Darth Revan. The Lettow worshiped the Dark Side of the Force and, in time, they were bent on aiding the Sith Empire and the Galactic Empire in their quest to destroy the Jedi Order and, eventually, the Bendu Order. They were galactically known for their brutal discipline and lust for power in their upper ranks, along with the unholy methods they used to advance in rank.

During the early days of the organization, the Lettow simply worshiped the Dark Side as they prepared to unleash their fury on the unsuspecting innocents of the galaxy. They were rediscovered during the Millennium of Hiding by a Dark Lord of the Sith and secretly began serving the Sith Order until the death of Darth Plagueis, as the knowledge of their location was lost when Plagueis did not reveal it to his apprentice, Darth Sidious. Decades later, they were rediscovered by Sidious and his apprentice, Darth Vader.

The Lettow were instrumental in many battles during the Galactic Civil War, most notably the First Battle of Alderaan, the Battle of Endor, the Second Battle of Alderaan, the Sieges of Naboo and the First Battle of Coruscant. However, during the First Battle of Coruscant, all but two Dark Guardians, Kane Starkiller and Mara Jade, were destroyed. The destruction of the faction thereby destroyed almost four thousand years of hard work and determination from Carden Mannux onward. However, the philosophies and practices of the Dark Guardians were later used on Earth by the Prophets of Lettow, a group that tried to bring about the return of Carden Mannux.

June 8, 2008 – Kal'Shabbol
Kal'Shabbol (pronounced: kăl'shābəl), not to be confused with the Outer Rim world of Kal'Shebbol, was originally the home of the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi and later the sole residence of the Bendu Order. According to scientific estimates, the world was the first in the galaxy to bear life, which was why Yahweh referred to it as the Promised Land and why the The Skywalker and the Jedi Bendu chose to reside there following the exodus from Had Abaddon, Kal’Shabbol’s twin world. Because it was the first planet to bear life, the Force of Others was stronger there than on most other worlds, though it was not the strongest source of the Force of Others that was known of.

Upon the arrival of the Jedi Bendu, conclaves were set up in the most habitable regions of the Ashlan Mountains for prayers and meetings of the most powerful Jedi Bendu. Deep within the mountains, they buried their scriptures so that only they would know where to find them, which was what led to the Kal’Shabbol Civil War between the Jedi Bendu and the colonists in the Valley of the Shadow of Death. The Jedi Bendu later began to watch over the inhabitants of the world that immigrated from other planets in the Ashlan Expanse. Once the Jedi Bendu split into two orders on Coruscant, a group loyal to the old ways settled in the capital city Ashla Prime and formed the Bendu Order.

During the thousands of years that the Bendu watched over the world, a peaceful utopia had been formed. However, with the arrival of Ussej Padric Bac and his family after the Great Territorial War between the Galactic Republic and the Third Sith Empire, the Ashlan Civil War broke out. At the end, Ussej pulled the mythical Sword of The Skywalker from its resting place in a hidden temple on the highest ridge of the Ashlan Mountains and ended the war, ending his life in the process. The site became one of reverence, being known as the Holy Ridge of the Shaman.

After the reunification of the Bendu Order and the Jedi Order at the end of the Galactic Civil War, the Second Jedi Bendu Order used the planet for meditation and prayer. Because they were busy with galactic affairs, the order ended their government on the planet and the common people became the leaders of the world. Though they were happy to have a true democracy to elect world leaders, they greatly appreciated everything that Jedi Bendu and the Bendu had done for them. At that time, the Kingdom of the Ashla was set up between Kal'Shabbol and the other Ashlan worlds, but thirty years later Kal'Shabbol and the rest of the kingdom became members of the New Republic. The legacy of the world and the people of the world reached as far as Earth during the crisis between the third Jedi Bendu Order and the Prophets of Lettow. Many years after the crisis, it became the first inhabited extra-galactic world that the people of Earth learned about, though the governments of Earth suppressed the knowledge of its existence.

June 15, 2008 – Chapek IX
Chapek IX was a human colonized planet during the Old Republic. It was a prosperous community which held much influence within the Republic during its time. It had a grand droid factory that produced hordes of different kinds of robots. Battle droids, astromech droids, protocol droids and many more were created here.

However, after many years the droids began to get aggravated. They would unite and surprisingly rebel against the humans, driving them all out of the planet and eliminating the world from the Republic. With a new robot-run world, a council of Robot Elders, comprised of the first created droids were placed in charge. They submitted a zero-tolerance policy on humans.

Eventually, the world would be liberated by a group of pirates. Though not the best of outcomes, it was still better than having a robot controlled world. The pirates gained control of the planet and the droids by bringing in supplies that the droids would have needed to survive any longer. Following a war in which the droids were almost all destroyed and the pirates were defeated, the planet was returned to the Republic. It would never return to the way it was before, but it has a history of a very important planet.

June 22, 2008 – Conrad Bac
Conrad Bac was a respected Organian General and the father of Jonathan Bac, the man who went on to become the first of the. The first notable member of the Bac family, he held the rank of General and Army Chief of Staff in the Organian Army decades before the Unification War and encouraged his son to pursue a career in the military. Before he had a chance to see his son join the military, he was assassinated by a then-unknown assailant. For decades, it was believed that the assailant was a covert agent from the Corellian Empire, which was the reasoning behind the launch of the Unification War. At the end of the war it was revealed that he had been assassinated by a member of the Anarchic Brotherhood of Planets, a lose alliance of worlds determined to stop the unification of governments and the creation of one galactic federal government.

Conrad was known throughout the Organian Empire as one of three men to serve longer than any other citizen as a prisoner of war behind Corellian lines. He was captured during the Battle of Alderaan after tensions rose between the two governments and was held with two of his men for one and a half years. During that time, has subjected to immense physical and psychological torture, and he refused to be released unless his men were released with him. He and his men were not released until months later after his father Dylan Bac had joined the Organian Legislature and negotiated for their release.

Although Conrad was not well known outside of Alderaan during the time that he lived in, he was remembered by his family as a brave soldier, an effective commander, a caring father and one of the men responsible for the course that his family took in the thousands of years following his untimely death. Jonathan Bac also said during his term as Supreme Chancellor that many of his military tactics and political ideas were influenced by the journals and logs of his father, meaning that Conrad had an influence on the outcome of the Unification War and the formation of the Galactic Republic.

June 29, 2008 – Nathaneiqua Adarak


Nathaneiqua Adarak was born on the planet Arkania and served as Republic General after the Great Sovereign Crusades. Nathaneiqua was an Arkanian outcast, an Arkanian who's genetic makeup was completely unique to any other Arkanian. In Arkanian culture, these offshoots were considered unwanted and inferior, and were the source of most Arkanian prejudice. Nathan(which is what he is called by most) was forced to grow a tough skin if he was to survive on Arkania.

Nathan grew up fending for himself, and he developed a great desire to leave his homeworld. Which is why he joined the Galactic Republic. He wanted to get away from the prejudice that plagued him on Arkania. He joined the Republic at the earliest possible age, eighteen, and left his homeworld without a second thought. He served within the Republic's military for many years, touring the galaxy, fighting evil, restoring peace, making it a better place. The idealized duties of a Republic soldier. In reality, he lived in the cramped barracks of the military cannon fodder.

Most of the time he ran through drill after mindless drill, until he could perform them in his sleep, and the few times when he saw actual combat, it was nothing like he imagined. The recruiters seemed to conveniently leave out what happens when you step on a hidden mine, or what it's like to see men all around you fall to the ground, dead in midair. Nonetheless, it was better than what he would have received had he stayed on Arkania. And he would admit that all his service did wonders for him. Throughout the years, Nathan grew and developed into a strong, proud man. He became a proud soldier, climbing the ranks to the top through numerous heroic deeds, and outstanding victories. He was measured on his merit and statistics, and he had been marked for outstanding service.

July 6, 2008 – Great Rim Lines War


The Great Rim Lines War was a major galactic conflict fought roughly forty years after the Great Territorial War. The war saw the oppressive forces of the Third Sith Empire and the on the offensive against the forces of the Jedi Order and the. The conflict was fought primarily to acquire trade routes and supplies for the dwindling Sith and Mandalorian militaries.

The conflict traced its origins back to the aftermath of the Great Territorial War when the Third Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic were in shambles. The Republic’s infrastructure had been significantly weakened which called for the beginning of a lengthy reconstruction process. The Sith’s numbers continued to fall due to in-fighting and the Mandalorians, lacking strong allies, also felt the effects of a lack of supplies to continue funding their military. Much like they had during the early stages of the, the Republic initially paid the Outer Rim sieges no mind, but eventually they were forced to enter into the conflict. The Republic lost every major engagement until the end of the war.

The decisive confrontation came when Cos Jonathan Dashin, a young Republic Colonel, was placed in command of the Republic fleet. He formulated a plan that would lure the entire Sith and Mandalorian army into a massive trap where they eventually ended up being destroyed on. As the Mandalorians barely limped away from the war, the Sith saw their numbers fall into the range of a few dozen, leaving open a gaping wound that would plant the seeds of the United Pirate Crusades and the Great Sovereign Crusades.

July 13, 2008 – Bern Adollu
Bern Adollu was a Human soldier of the born on Onderon, to two Republic soldiers. Adollu was affiliated with the Republic, like his parents, as a soldier, spy and detective; since he was Onderonian, he had a passion for investigating operations on Onderon. Adollu eventually became a well known soldier, and he intimately became involved with a woman named Shila Vonacera. He had a child born out of wedlock with her, however, he never knew of his child. After his parents untimely death in 1,801 BBY, Adollu was awarded the Medallion of Honor and assigned to a special investigation on Onderon, where he remained for the rest of his life.

During his investigation, Adollu created a rivalry with all of the Five Families of Onderon, however, he was most involved against Dominic Montra and his family. He was best friends with his co-officer Marto "Smalls" Nao-sin, who aided him during his time on Onderon as much as he could. During his work, Adollu was backed by the soldiers of Orthos Wibl in secrecy, who helped him avoid near-death situations at times. Unfortunately for Adollu, his allegiance with the Wibl family caused his downfall; at Orthos Wibl's funeral, the Montra family captured Adollu after assaulting the castle.

Adollu remained in their captivity over the next two years, until he escaped but was soon assassinated, along with Nao-sin 1,785 BBY. Adollu's work would, unfortunately for many, be in vain, due to his death and lack of pursuit in the investigation.

July 20, 2008 – Vogga
Vogga the Hutt was a Hutt born on the planet Nal Hutta. He was brought up to be a criminal and a crime lord, like many Hutt's are and was able to follow through on his dreams. He would move to Nar Shaddaa, the moon of Nal Hutta, where he would start up his own crime syndicate to challenge the Exchange and the local crime lord Goto.

Vogga dealt with many famous individuals throughout his long life and helped them along their way. These people included, but were not limited to, the Exile and Filose Naj. He helped both of them go in the right direction in their lives, getting the Exile fuel for Citadel Station in Telos and making Filose give up the mercenary business.

Vogga was responsible for ridding the refugee sector of all criminal activity outside of his own. He persuaded the Exile into destroying Goto's yacht, had his hunters take out the remaining Serenno gang and Exchange and then set up special traps to destroy the Genoharadan. He had the reputation of being a brutal businessman who would do anything to reach the top.

Vogga was a leading general in the Great Unification War. The war was spearheaded by Darth Axon, who brought together the Sith, Mandalorians, Exchange and Hutts to form a major fighting force against the Jedi and Republic. Vogga was chosen to lead the Hutt forces due to his outstanding work taking over Nar Shaddaa. Out of all the generals on the unified side, Vogga was the only one to escape alive.

July 27, 2008 – Sith Crusade
The Sith Crusade, also known simply as the Crusade to the Sith, was a conflict which took place between the years 56 ABY and 66 ABY. One of the largest engagements in galactic history, the Sith Crusade saw the rise of the Sith Order of Decreto as the greatest galactic power in the history of the galaxy. The roots of the conflict are traced back several thousand years, to the death of and the ascension of Konopka to the self proclaimed title of Dark Lord of the Decreton Empire. Eventually, the revenge Konopka sought upon the was realized, having trickled down through the different regimes and Dark Lords until the Sith Order's discovery on Nerezza and the ensuing battle, it saw one of the most powerful Jedi in the history of the Jedi Order corrupted towards the dark side of the Force.

Newly re-born amongst the Sith as Darth Abeonis, the new Dark Lord conquered the weakened Sith Order of Decreto, and somehow managed to bring the Sith out of the conflict stronger than before. Using Sith knowledge that he had had gained the Decreton Knights, former Jedi lead an invasion of the galaxy, starting with the. After the conquests of the Chiss Ascendancy and the, and several defeats at the hands of the Sith, the Galactic Alliance found itself suing for peace, and surrendering numerous planets to the Sith. Eventually however, the Sith did invade, and Darth Abeonis ushered into the start of a new Sith age.

Darth Abeonis and his fellow Sith Lord (most of whom were former Jedi themselves) launched a series of deadly campaigns against the Alliance, wiping out numerous minor galactic powers along the way and bringing others into the Sith fold. Eventually, after a massive power shift within the Galactic Alliance, and several gargantuan engagements, the Sith and the Jedi found themselves gasping for breath from the conflict, having lost a great size of the forces in the last year. The following however, a renewed Sith invasion brought the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances to its knees, and after several more years the galactic capital of itself was conquered. The conquest of the galactic capital, and the deaths of so many Galactic Federation personnel finally brought the Sith Crusade to an end.

August 3, 2008 – The Fanon Menace/Season 1
Season I of The Fanon Menace loosely followed the storyline of Episodes I, II, and III. There were 30 episodes in the first season that developed the characters of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Padmé Amidala. Throughout the first season, the hidden plans of the two masterminds were beginning to be seen. Padmé rose to power and influence, Anakin became a Jedi Master and was twisted by the dark side, and Obi-Wan Kenobi found his place as the old hermit in the desert.

On the lonely planet of Tatooine, Anakin Skywalker was found and taken in by Qui-Gon Jinn. Qui-Gon passed Anakin on to his apprentice who taught Anakin the skills to fight the Sith. Anakin traveled throughout the galaxy with Obi-Wan until they discovered a plot to kill Padmé. From there, the two Jedi split up, one protected Padmé and the other searched for the killer. When they found out who was behind the plot, it broke out into war, scarring the galaxy. This paved the way for Anakin to rise to Master and became both Jedi and father. With Padmé pregnant, more responsibility fell on Anakin as the need to keep her alive arose. With this, the mastermind played with Anakin, until he fell into a trap and turned to the dark side of the force, leaving the galaxy in darkness.

Season I managed to gross over 8,000 views on YouTube during its air. That number continued to climb, however, as time went on. The first episode remained the most viewed for the majority of the airing, until the tenth episode surpassed it gaining over 2,000 views. This was minor compared to some of the major videos uploaded onto YouTube, but was still a major marker in the start of the series as the creators knew they now had fans.

August 10, 2008 – Xendor Taral
Xendor Taral, later known simply as Xendor and the Dark Underlord, was the first, one of the most infamous and one of the most important Dark Jedi Bendu in universal history. Before embracing the Bogan, he was a Jedi Bendu Knight from, but he was expelled from the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi due to his unorthodox methods, his intent to study and practice the arts of the Bogan and the murder of Jiaasjen, the woman who trained him as a Jedi Bendu. After his exile, he made his way into the and located the lost world of Had Abaddon where he acquired an artifact known as the Kaiburr Crystal. After securing the relic, he gathered dozens of the planet’s inhabitants and made his way back into the known galaxy where he and his followers settled on.

On Dathomir, Xendor brought his minions together and founded an order of Dark Jedi Bendu and dark warriors that he called the Legions of Lettow, the term “Lettow” referring to the name of the ancient Ophuchi God of the underworld. His disciples also referred to themselves as the “Minions of Xendor”. During the decades when he did nothing but train his minions, he fell in love with one of his disciples, a woman named Arden Lyn. At one point, Xendor and Arden were ambushed by Jedi Bendu on and Arden was fatally injured, though Xendor was able to use the healing powers of the Kaiburr crystal to resuscitate her, as well as to keep her young and beautiful for the rest of her life. A few years later, Xendor and Arden began to launch guerilla bombings against Republic and Jedi Bendu sites.

Towards the end of his time as Supreme General of the Legions of Lettow, Xendor began to explore worlds unknown to the Galactic Republic. During his exploration, he located a world called and found a race of people called the. He became interested in them and they shared with him a great deal of their mythology, as well as the myth surrounding the supposedly immortality-granting Medallion of the Saarai-kaar. Before he returned to Dathomir, Xendor also shared with them his powers, showing them what the Force of Others was capable of.

Only weeks later, Xendor announced his plan to destroy the Jedi Bendu on Coruscant once and for all. Days later, the minions set of numerous explosives around the Great Jedi Bendu Pyramid to surround the Jedi Bendu in flames. Xendor and his minions attacked the Jedi Bendu, though their assault was futile. All but a dozen minions, including Arden, were killed, as was Xendor. However, his spirit did return during the as the Dark Underlord, though he was killed by the Jedi Order before the war was over. Even so, his legacy lived on for thousands of years after his second death through the Dark Guardians of Lettow, the Gungan Empire and the Prophets of Lettow.

August 17, 2008 – Great Territorial War
The Great Territorial War was a major galactic conflict fought thirty years after the between the oppressive forces of the Third Sith Empire and the Jedi Order. Also involved in the devastating conflict were the forces of the, the and the. The conflict was fought primarily to acquire new territory throughout the galaxy.

The conflict traced it’s origins to the aftermath of the Jedi Civil War when the of  and the Jedi Order were in shambles. Only a few hundred remained on each side and both were desperate to gain a foothold in new territory. Because the Galactic Republic was still attempting to rebuild after the horrifying events of the, they paid the initial conflict no mind as they felt that it was a Jedi affair. However, once the Mandalorians and the Chiss entered the conflict, the Republic knew that it would have to defend its territory. Despite putting up a fight, there was a span of over one month where the Sith controlled Coruscant.

The decisive confrontation came when the Third Sith Empire split into two factions, the loyalists and the Macabre Alliance, and began fighting within their own ranks. The Jedi and the Republic were able to take advantage of the situation and launch an offensive aimed at pushing the Sith out of Republic territories. The conflict was not over until Coruscant was liberated and Empress Viea was killed by a group of former. When the battle ended, the Sith limped back to where they did not become involved in another conflict until the Great Rim Lines War.

August 24, 2008 – Ryluk Shouja
Ryluk Shouja was a bounty hunter that lived during an era of change, and worked under the Galactic Republic, Galactic Empire, New Republic, and the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances. He was considered one of the most competent bounty hunters in the history of the galaxy in his prime.

His career as an active bounty hunter spanned 106 years truncated by his first eighteen years and last twenty-five years. He lived to the age of 149, nearly half again the normal lifespan of the average Human. During that time he married Lymie Chamna, who gave birth to a son. His son's true identity was kept a close secret to protect the young boy from assassination and kidnapping attempts.

Ryluk disappeared with his wife and child into the deep Outer Rim for several years, only reappearing three times over seventeen years before emerging from the Outer Rim with Lymie and returning to live a relaxing life on Coruscant. They became good friends with many young people, creating the perfect cover to visit with their son, whose identity remained a closely guarded secret, even until their death. Ryluk died of old age three years after the death of his wife, Lymie, in 102 ABY.

August 31, 2008 – Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction
Originally known as Operation: Straystar, the Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction, more commonly within the organization known as RAIF, outside as the Black Circle, were the technically non-existing spies, intelligence agencies and assassination infiltrators of the Rebel Alliance. A splinter branch faction of the Rebel Alliance military, Alliance Intelligence, Alliance Special Operations and the Alliance Special Forces, RAIF was composed of the absolute elite of the Rebel Alliance. Their actual existence was known to very few, even among the Alliance High Command. The Alliance leader, Mon Mothma was particularly left ignorant of their existence.

The Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction didn't share the methods of Mon Mothma, or other idealistic dreams of the rest of the Alliance High Command. The leaders of the Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction, as well as their operatives, didn't restrict themselves from using "darker" methods to achieve their goals. In many instances, RAIF operatives have spread blasphemous propaganda, committed assassinations, murderous-induced intimidation or ransom kidnappings. They also did not hesitate using their methods against the Rebel Alliance when certain situations demanded it. Of the few in the galaxy who had only heard of them, from the Galactic Empire to the Hutts, they were believed to be terrorists, and survivors of their attacks referred to them as the "Black Circle".

The RAIF organization had it's hand behind multiple anonymous Intel transmissions and technological achievements, such the formation of the E.C.H.O. Visor, which revolutionized their commandos and infiltrators. Their technology was advanced, unarguably superior to what was at the Galactic Empire's disposal. The Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction branch was literally founded by five people in the early years of the Rebel Alliance, and silently developed into an almost exclusively military force. The Rebel Alliance Intelligence Faction grew very slowly in it's early years, and slowly developed into a more organized faction, though nearly all of the organization's past had been erased from history, making the process of their founding a large unknown. The organizations' secret formation was priority "1", and lasted through to the Legacy era. RAIF operatives were was split into one of four Executive divisions, with each division specialized in different fields.

September 7, 2008 – Club StarDust
Club StarDust was a large space station that acted as a dance club and disco for all manner of beings from across the galaxy. It was noted for its conspicuous appearance--namely, an enormous glittering sphere that in later years was said to vaguely resemble the. Hovering in a stationary position in space near the Terax Nebula, it proved popular for both high society and commoners simply wishing to have a good time. It could accommodate at maximum ten thousand beings, and hence had seventy-eight different dance halls which were always playing something at any given time. Several luxury restaurants were also located there.

The space station itself was about ten kilometers in diameter, with fifteen docking bays along its equator. It was unarmed, relying on local jurisdiction for protection. In the center of the sphere was the main reactor, which was an advanced type that needed to cope with the constant lights and advanced sound systems in the dance halls of the station.

Built around, by the mysterious magnate known as Shan Drievax, the station immediately became popular, and even in the visitor numbers remained high, and it was often used to host celebrations for events such as the end of the Clone Wars. However, during the more puritan times of the Empire, the music there was toned down and the management was forced to play pro-Imperial tunes. When the Empire collapsed, the station held its biggest party yet. The Club would continue to provide entertainment well into the days of the.

September 14, 2008 – Cilwelli (species)
The Cilwelli, also called Cilwellians, were a primitive Near-Human species native to Cilwelli. They were characterized by their distinct third eye, known as a tyreal. In some members of the species this eye had hypnotic effects on weak-minded beings. Because of the harsh conditions of their homeworld, violence was an accepted part of life for the Cilwellians. To keep the war-like people from destroying each other, an Aulsur in the Pre-Republic era brought the various tribes under a single banner and established a strict code of conduct. This code was followed well into into the days of the New Republic.

Even after the Cilwelli came under Hutt rule they remained highly traditional. Because their laws deemed submission to higher beings a great honor, they were often taken advantage of by the Hutts, and later the Galactic Empire. However, it was the same strict honor-code that would ultimately save them from their abusive masters. Under the command of the priest, Sincol, the Cilwelli fought back by joining the Rebel Alliance and freeing their homeworld.

From that point onward, the Cilwelli would remain an active part of galactic politics. Thanks to a treaty signed by the New Republic, the Cilwelli were finally given their freedom after nearly 30,000 years of Hutt domination. However, their liberation would be short lived. The Yuuzhan Vong War saw the destruction of their homeworld and the near extinction of the Cilwelli race.

September 21, 2008 – Battle of Cul-Huq (Cruentusian War)
The Battle of Cul-Huq was a major battle of the Cruentusian War, and was considered a major turning point. Its roots lay at the time when Carsal Redharn noticed that the Srav Federation was setting up a major base on the idyllic world of Cul-Huq, which was rich in natural resources, providing a base of great wealth to the Srav Federation. He planned a major assault on the world, deciding that it would better serve Necasian assets and would help forward their war efforts. However, his treacherous commander Askar Invado sold valuable information to the Srav Intelligence units about the planned assault, and made sure that pre-battle Necasian sabotage failed dismally. When the Necasians arrived at the planet, they met with a large Srav force, ready and armed and completely unharmed by their planned sabotage.

As a battle raged in space, a Necasian fleet managed to land on the world, where they engaged Srav forces, offloading their heavy weapons in an attempt to storm them. A group of Savi Alliance mercenaries were also present, however, and got caught in the crossfire, and began fighting both sides, pushing the Necasian storming attempt back. Eventually, however, with the loss of several Necasian ships and therefore a large part of their anti-missile laser countermeasures, Ivran Gresev, the Srav commander, lost patience and ordered a full nuclear bombardment of half the planet. Nearly all of the Necasian and Savi forces, as well as some Srav troops, were annihilated, causing severe damage to the Necasian war machine in that system, and offering all Redharn critics ammunition for their arguments. After the battle, Redharn received most of the blame for the defeat, with Askar Invado using it to call for a new leader, starting great political turmoil amongst the Necasians that would, eventually, lead to civil war.

Force Exile Series (deleted)
The Force Exile series is an ongoing fan book series written and produced by Atarumaster88, currently distributed via request with the author and on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki. The first novel, Force Exile I: Fugitive, was released in June 2007 and set in the final stages of -spanning. Fugitive introduced several original characters to the  universe, including the Selusda Kraen and  Alpha-28, also known as Spectre. In Fugitive, the characters of the story must each confront the grim reality of and the rise of the, finding their way in a galaxy changed forever by the revenge of the. For the cover, Atarumaster88 was able to procure art from a user on the Star Wars Fanon Wiki named Solus, and the detailed covers have been a mainstay of the series ever since. Fugitive garnered critical acclaim from several reviewers, including the Star Wars Fanon Newsletter's staff, as well as winning the Best Novel Award in the Third Wiki Awards.

With the completion of Fugitive, Atarumaster88 began working on its sequel, Force Exile II: Smuggler, which continues the story of Selu and Spectre a few months after Fugitive, while bringing previously minor characters introduced in Fugitive to greater prominence. These include Sarth Kraen, Selu's brother, and R'hask Sei'lar, the captain of the Hawk-bat. Smuggler also introduced Milya Tayrce, a runaway who went on to play a large role in the novel. Smuggler finished with an explosive ending, with the final novel compiled in November 2007&mdash;a total writing time of less than six months for a 193 page book. Although the sequel received less critical notice, Atarumaster88 continued to write the final book of the trilogy, Force Exile III: Liberator, an even longer work that ended up spanning 295 pages. Set in, Liberator brought resolution to characters and events introduced throughout the Force Exile books, setting them off in new directions at the end of the novel. It was finished in May 2008, with a total writing period of five months. Atarumaster88 attributed this pace to his extensive pre-planned outlining and layout work, as well as the multiple revisions the story's outline underwent as it evolved and grew. However, Solus left the project after Smuggler, leaving Atarumaster88 to contact Darth Nyne to continue the production of covers for the series.

The latest additions to the Force Exile saga have not been novels. Starting in the summer of 2008, Atarumaster88 began work on a follow-on work to Liberator, an anthology of short stories known as the Yanibar Tales, stating that the stories within in it followed looser guidelines and could be written in a couple of weeks.

Atarumaster88 has also announced that a second trilogy of Force Exile novels exists as well, starting with Force Exile IV: Guardian, set to be released in 2009, followed by a fifth work known as Force Exile V: Warrior.

October 5, 2008 – Battle of Gand
The Battle of Gand was the preliminary battle in the Galactic Civil War, and believed to be one of the first of many armed conflicts between the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic. The battle began with the capture of Gand by several Rebel assault groups who took the Imperial forces by surprise and captured the lightly garrisoned planet and its cities within twenty-four hours. The Empire responded by sending in a small scout fleet to discover their opponent's strengths and troop count, but the scout fleet was destroyed before it returned to the Imperial Capital.

Following the destruction of their fleet and their loss of Gand, the Emperor demanded that Darth Vader go to Gand personally with a large assault force and destroy any resistance on the planet. Vader complied with orders, and called upon Jerec, one of the Emperor's Emperor's Hand's and a loyal Dark Jedi, to assist him in leading the troops. His leading infantry battalion was Vader's Fist, who had once been the 501st Legion, powerful clones loyal to Vader and the Emperor. Jerec and Vader's Fist would assist Vader in leading the attack. They assembled a large strike force, comprised of the largest fleet the Empire had constructed in years, along with a sizable land-based attack force, consisting of the famed 501st Legion and the 671st Stormtrooper Platoon, both filled with veteran and fervently loyal stormtroopers.

The attack began in orbit kilometers above the planet. When the Imperials arrived over Gand, the Rebels engaged them immediately and were defeated several times by the better-equipped and larger Imperial fleet. Realizing they could no longer keep up with the Imperial Navy, the Rebel forces abandoned their position and retreated into more secure positions in Gand's sky. With the Rebellion force in a rout, Vader and his armada descended towards Gand's surface, and began to defeat enemy ships in the skies as they approached the largest floating city. Defeating several enemy bases and small skyhooks set up around the planet's gaseous skies, the bulk of the Imperial ground forces eventually made it to the main Rebel base on Gand Erx.

Once the Imperial infantry forces landed on Gand Erx, they were pinned down by Rebel sniper fire at their landing zones and unable to continue into the city. With the eventual arrival of air and mechanized support; however, they managed to remove the Rebel forces from their lofty locations and into their bunkers and outposts, which were subsequently destroyed by heavy Imperial walkers. As the Rebels abandoned their bases and fled, Vader himself landed on the surface to assist his men in rounding up the last few resistance fighters. However, a tremor in the Force caused him to travel to the depths of the Gand Megaplex; where he met the ringleader of the entire attack; an Order 66 survivor named Ra Blin.

In an intense duel between the two, Vader had the upper hand for most of the battle. However, with the arrival of Blin's apprentice, Cori Benn, the tide turned slightly in favor of the two Jedi. Managing to get a lucky shot, Blin temporarily incapacitated the Dark Lord, and was about to strike him down, if not for the timely arrival of Jerec, who had followed Vader into the Megaplex once he had wiped out a couple Rebel troops still lingering in the city's center. He struck Blin with dark side energy, killing him. After Jerec assisted Vader and they left the Gand Megaplex, Commander Jir informed them that the last of the Rebels had been driven from the planet.

Though the battle had been won for the Empire, it had been a costly victory. Nearly the entire Alliance force that attacked the planet had been killed, and the remainder of the forces that survived were either captured, or were hunted down by Bounty hunters hired after the battle. The Empire lost most of its infantry forces and that, coupled with other casualties, set back the Empire a few months in an attempt to regain their military prowess.

October 12, 2008 – Sarus
Sarus was the leader of the Ophuchi Clan during the time of the Invasion of Utapau. When he was young, he found out that he was carrying a spirit inside of him that had lasted for over one hundred thousand years, a destiny that he did not originally accept until he came to realize that if he believed in the possibility then he would do the right thing when the time came. In the years that followed, Sarus met Shmi Skywalker who was pregnant with a son, despite the fact that she was a virgin. After he fought off a supposed Sith assailant, Sarus helped deliver the child whom Shmi named Annikin Skywalker. Sarus believed that Annikin would go on to be the Chosen One based on what was said in the Prophecy of the Chosen One and the circumstances surrounding his birth. Shortly thereafter, Sarus was contacted by the Shaman of the Whills who told him of the destiny he would play in Annikin's life. In the years that followed, Sarus kept a close eye on Annikin, and he also had dealings with the Trade Federation.

Years later, Sarus came into contact with Annikin once again, as well as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jard Dooku, Jar Binks and Sabé Arcadia, the outsiders that Annikin was allowing to stay at his home. Sarus led them into the Ophuchi Sanctuary in the Dune Sea where he told them about the Ophuchi people, and later the prophecy of the Chosen One. Annikin had a difficult time accepting his possible destiny, but Sarus was able to convince him to believe that it could be true. Later, they traveled to Anchorhead where they were able to negotiate with Bib Fortuna at Jabba the Hutt’s regional office to release Annikin from the Lars family’s sharecropping contract, though Annikin would first have to win a swoop race against his rival Sebulba.

Annikin won the race, partially because of the fact that Sarus damaged the stabilizer on Sebulba's racer. After securing Annikin's release from the contract, Sarus confessed this to Annikin, who did not take it well. Shortly before saying goodbye to Annikin, Sarus transferred something from inside of himself into Annikin, though he did not tell Annikin what it was. Sarus left and spoke with the Shaman of the Whills once again who told him that his role in Annikin's destiny was over, though he would still have preordained roles to play in the future.

October 19, 2008 – Annikin Skywalker


Annikin Skywalker was a moisture farmer and occasional swoop racer outside of Anchorhead on the desert world of Tatooine during the Invasion of Utapau. When he was a youth, Skywalker’s mother, Shmi Skywalker, married a moisture farmer named Cliegg Lars. Lars’s son, Owen Lars, became Skywalker’s stepbrother and, along with Shmi, Skywalker moved to the Lars moisture farm just outside of Anchorhead. Skywalker worked as a sharecropper, as the farm was owned by Jabba the Hutt from the Hutt Cartel.

During the Invasion of Utapau, a conflict between the Trade Federation shipping cartel and the planet Utapau, Skywalker came into contact with Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, who had been serving as a Jedi ambassador during the crisis on Utapau. Kenobi was part of the crew of a starship belonging to Queen Sabé Arcadia of Utapau that crashed during a sandstorm outside of Anchorhead. When Skywalker found out that the vessel’s hyperdrive had been disabled, he offered to fix it for them, feeling that he had the technical expertise to do so. Arcadia approved, and Skywalker and his family granted the entire crew permission to stay on their farm while the ship was being repaired. Skywalker therefore began to develop a friendship with Kenobi.

October 26, 2008 – Exodus from Had Abaddon
The Exodus from Had Abaddon was one of the single most important events in the history of the galaxy, according to many historians, as it was responsible for the creation of the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi and, therefore, all of the events that followed that took place because of the Jedi Bendu, particularly the Kal'Shabbol Civil War and the foundation of the Galactic Republic. The conflict began when The Skywalker, who was then named Jedi Bendu while living as the adopted son of the King of Had Abaddon, found a group of slaves from the Ophuchi Tribe and realized he was one of them based on the powers that he and they shared. Days later, The Skywalker spoke to Yahweh, the creator of the universe, on Mount Sky who sent The Skywalker on a quest to free the Ophuchi from their enslavement.

The Skywalker later returned to face his brother Achab Tarea, who had become king in their father’s place, and with him he brought plagues from Yahweh that were used against the monarchy in an attempt to force it to free the Ophuchi. In the end, the Ophuchi were freed, but Achab changed his mind and entered into a duel with The Skywalker, a duel that The Skywalker won by killing Achab. The soldiers under the fallen king’s command followed the Ophuchi as they left the planet for Kal'Shabbol, the planet that was said to be the Promised Land, but the soldiers were stopped and killed due to divine intervention.

When the Ophuchi arrived on Kal'Shabbol, they began setting up a colony where they would be able to live. During that time, they formed the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi and began to put together their beliefs and ideals into a collective group. This event led to further colonization of the planet when settlers from many planets across the Ashlan Expanse heard about the exodus, though when the Eternal Order of the Vipera settled on the planet following the First Had Abaddon Civil War it also led to the Kal’Shabbol Civil War. Nevertheless, the event was said to have had mainly positive results based on the events that followed because of it.

November 2, 2008 – Kal'Shabbol Civil War
The Kal'Shabbol Civil War was a conflict on Kal'Shabbol between the Order of the Jedi Bendu of the Ophuchi and the Eternal Order of the Vipera, as well as the colonists of Ashla Prime and Vattica who sided with the Jedi Bendu. The conflict traced it’s origins to the aftermath of the Exodus from Had Abaddon which saw the collapse of the monarchy of Had Abaddon. The Eternal Order of the Vipera, which had been residing on Had Abaddon, was under the protection of the monarchy to avoid persecution for their darker yet quiet arts, and when the new monarchy rose to power following the First Had Abaddon Civil War they were forced to flee from persecution to Kal'Shabbol where they hoped to begin a new and peaceful life. However, because the Jedi Bendu had been responsible for the overthrowing of the monarchy, they became a taboo culture to the other colonists and the cultists developed an anti-social culture within a valley.

During one poor season, a famine overtook Kal'Shabbol and the Valley People believed that the Jedi Bendu were stealing their food. This led them to attack the Jedi Bendu, officially beginning combat operations. However, when the Valley People discovered the existence of the Force of Others, which they believed was a treasure, they demanded that it be given to them. They were angered when the Jedi Bendu offered to share it with them and continued the war. The war stretched on for nearly one year, forcing the colonists to eventually become involved, until the Valley People were finally able to discover the location of their supposed treasure. When they found it, they realized it was nothing more than the peace and love of Yahweh, the creator and God of the Universe.

The Valley People returned to their valley, ashamed of their actions during the war. Within weeks, cultist General Anguigena led most of his army in a ritualistic suicide, as the customs of the people dictated that it was the only way to atone for their crimes. The High Shaman Nazzereal was arrested and charged with crimes against sentience, and many of the other valley townspeople either assimilated into the colonies of Kal'Shabbol or moved to other worlds in the Ashlan Expanse. The aftermath of the war saw the Jedi Bendu fulfilling their mandate of establishing the Order of the Whills, and the legacy of the conflict was eventually one of the reasons that Fillorean, a Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic eighty-five thousand years after the war, caused the schism that saw the creation of the Jedi Order and the Bendu Order.

November 9, 2008 – Sabé Arcadia
Sabé Arcadia was the ruling monarch of Utapau from the royal House of Arcadia during the Trade Federation Invasion of Utapau. She was also the daughter of the assassinated King Veruna Arcadia, her immediate predecessor to the throne. After becoming Queen of Utapau through her lineage, Sabé immediately reversed some unpopular decisions made by her father, though not all of them which led to anger, resentment and death threats from some of the more extreme people of the planet.

Along with close friend and Utapau Senator Malus Palpatine, Sabé was a strong supporter of the Galactic Republic’s efforts to end slave use by Republic corporations outside of Republic territory. This eventually led to the slave-holding Trade Federation blockading and invading Utapau, which forced her to leave the planet with her guards, Jar Binks, Jedi Master Jard Dooku and Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi after her negotiations did not produce the results that she had hoped for.

The ship eventually traveled to Tatooine to make repairs, despite the primary destination being Coruscant, where it crash landed after a sandstorm. Sabé agreed to let a local named Annikin Skywalker help repair the ship, and she later agreed to go with a man named Sarus, the leader of the Ophuchi Clan, on a pilgrimage into the Dune Sea where she and the others learned that Sarus believed Annikin would fulfill the Prophecy of the Chosen One. After Annikin successfully won a swoop race that won his freedom from a sharecropping contract, Sabé and the others were back on course for Coruscant in the repaired royal starship. Once they arrived, Sabé met with Palpatine and Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum regarding the invasion, and after Valorum left Palpatine suggested that Sabé move for a vote of no confidence in the Chancellor's leadership.

November 16, 2008 – Invasion of Utapau
The Invasion of Utapau was a conflict between the Trade Federation and Utapau in 22 BBY. The conflict began after Senator Malus Palpatine and Queen Sabé Arcadia supported successfully passed Galactic Senate legislation that prevented Galactic Republic corporations such as the Trade Federation from using slave labor outside of Republic jurisdiction, thereby hurting a large part of Federation commerce and workforce. With help from Lord Maul, in the hopes of repealing the law, and for a degree of revenge, the Federation blockaded Utapau, choosing the planet because they felt it was relatively helpless.

After days of failed negotiations on the part of Arcadia, the Federation cut off all communication on the planet and began landing their invasion force. It did not take them long to control most of the seemingly peaceful planet, though while the Federation droid army was moving the citizens of the cities and villages into internment camps that they had built, Arcadia was able to escape where she eventually made it to Coruscant, albeit after a detour on Tatooine, to formally request assistance from the Galactic Senate.

While Arcadia was off of the planet, HoloNet news reports suggested that thousands had been killed by the Trade Federation and millions had been displaced. The Federation also converted underground factories into droid foundries to produce additional battle droid soldiers, and they began to search the swamps of the planet to destroy the settlements of the Gungan Empire.

November 23, 2008 – Raymus Drewton
Raymus Antilles Drewton was a recruited Captain and excellent pilot in the starwars:Clone Army during the last days of the starwars:Galactic Republic. He was born on starwars:Naboo, a year after the birth of his brother, Tarisian. His father, Drazil Drewton, was assassinated in 32 BBY on the Legacy. Raymus himself was nearly killed by the assassin, barely escaping with his brother by crash-landed via on, which was being attacked by the  as a result of Drazil's death. After the battle, they were brought back to their homeplanet by Idnum-Ki.

Almost ten years later, Raymus and Tarisian joined the Republic Peace Keepers and fought skirmishes against the Nockudumey Terrorists. A few months later, they fought in the and became recruits in the starwars:Clone Army. Raymus was soon promoted to the rank of Captain by Jaric Mothell at the starwars:Battle of Muunilist, where his strategy saved the Republic from defeat. Though he denied it, he was considered brilliant by his superiors.

Months into the war, he and his brother were captured by the Nockudumey. During their captivity, it was revealed that an assassin named Mecupa had killed their father. After being rescued by Republic forces and returning to Coruscant, Drewton was given command of one of the first, which he named the Legacy after his father's ship. He assisted Dular, a Jedi who he had met on Dantooine ten years prior, in clearing his name when he was falsely accusing of treason.

At the time of, he was temporarily the Captain of the , the starship of Senator , under the guise of the prince of.

November 30, 2008 – Ophuchi Sanctuary
The Ophuchi Sanctuary was the main location and headquarters of the Ophuchi Clan. Located in the Dune Sea on the desert world of Tatooine, and roughly eight standard hours outside of Anchorhead, it was built sometime around the time of the New Sith Wars after the scattered Ophuchi were brought there by the Shaman of the Whills. It also essentially became one of the final resting places of the complete Prophecy of the Chosen One.

There were numerous areas within the compound for residences, common areas and worship services. One of the more well-known known but lesser-used places of worship was a cave sanctuary nearly one kilometer away from the main compound that was adorned with cave paintings serving as prophecies. There was also a large ledge a few meters away from the cave that overlooked the Tatooine desert for hundreds of kilometers. It was in this location that Sarus told Annikin Skywalker that he believed Annikin was the Chosen One spoken of in the prophecy.

Though there was little documented history on the sanctuary, it was known that the construction was credited to the Shaman of the Whills, who began appearing to displaced Ophuchi and led them to the Dune Sea where they built the compound shortly thereafter. There was also little evidence of the sanctuary’s existence on Tatooine, though there were numerous rumors about it. The local governments on the planet chose not to investigate it and, for reasons unknown, always dismissed any accounts of it as an urban legend.

December 7, 2008 – Second Battle of Bakura (Dark Order War)


The Second Battle of Bakura was one of the most pivotal battles of the Dark Order War. It was fought by the against the Dark Order of Korr, an  faction led by the  Jaden Korr. After the Republic confirmed Jaden's presence on Bakura, a large fleet was sent to capture or kill the renegade. The battle began in orbit, where the Dark Order's fleet was attacked by the Republic armada. During the battle, the Republic deployed a ground army on Bakura's surface, which attacked the Imperial stronghold where Jaden was located. While the battles raged in orbit and on the ground, Jaden Korr was confronted inside the base by Darth Imperious, the apprentice of Darth Persia, a self-proclaimed. Persia had infiltrated the Dark Order under the guise of a, hoping to usurp Jaden's rule and take control of the Order for himself. Imperious had been sent to Bakura's surface to kill Jaden, allowing Persia to continue his plans.

The Kyle Katarn arrived during the confrontation, having traveled to Bakura to capture his former apprentice. Katarn's appearance prompted a three-sided duel inside the stronghold, during which Imperious was incapacitated. As a result, Darth Persia, who was commanding the Imperial fleet in orbit, was unable to sense his apprentice through the Force and eventually came to the conclusion that he had been killed by Jaden. Fearing that the Dark Jedi would escape and pose a future threat to his own power, Persia ordered the fleet to execute a operation, destroying the surface of the planet. Although Imperious and Katarn both managed to escape, Jaden Korr died in the holocaust and the New Republic fleet was routed.

December 14, 2008 – Obi-Wan Kenobi


Obi-Wan Kenobi was a Jedi Knight during the Invasion of Utapau. He was born on Dantooine and was taken into the Jedi Order as an infant, where he eventually became the apprentice of Jedi Master Jard Dooku. On some occasions, he also received training from Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, and because of Obi-Wan's tense relationship with Dooku he sometimes felt as if Qui-Gon was more of a mentor to him than anyone else. This continued even after he passed his Jedi Trials and became a Jedi Knight, before which he participated in the Stark Hyperspace War.

After the Trade Federation blockaded Utapau, Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum sent Obi-Wan and Dooku to Utapau to negotiate with Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray in the hopes of ending the conflict. However, the negotiations never took place, and Obi-Wan and Dooku, along with Jar Binks, helped Queen Arcadia escape the planet, only to end up on Tatooine to repair their vessel. It was there that they met Annikin Skywalker, who offered to repair the ship. They also came into contact with Sarus, the leader of the Ophuchi Clan, who believed that Annikin was destined to fulfill the Prophecy of the Chosen One. After securing Annikin's freedom from a contract with Jabba the Hutt, Obi-Wan agreed to take Annikin to Coruscant where the Jedi High Council decided to test Annikin's Force potential.

Years later, during the Galactic Civil War, Obi-Wan changed his name to "Ben" and went into hiding. Despite this, he periodically contacted Bail Prestor Organa, Viceroy of Alderaan, and during one such conversation he discussed Organa's daughter, Leia Organa, and her associations with Epin Lanmaw, who was the son of a former Jedi Padawan.

December 21, 2008 – Darth Desolous


Darth Desolous was a Dark Lord of the Sith born on  who lived from the time of the reign of Darth Haagen to the Siege of Dantooine. When the s invaded space, Desolous heard the call to war and joined Revan and Alek Squinquargesimus's cause, defying the. He was eventually seduced the power of the, and therefore was exiled from the Jedi Council.

Vowing revenge, Desoluos took on his Sith name and rallied an army to serve him. The war he raged on the Jedi proved brutal, and his reign was finally ended in a battle on in which his army was destroyed and he himself was thought to be killed. Believing his previous actions to have been mistakes, the defeated Dark Lord gave up a life of war and chose to live in a small cave on Dantooine. He would write many books which spoke of the dark side, including Control of the Force.

Many millennia later, Desolous trained the Jedi Idnum-Ki during the Siege of Dantooine and told him that he could ascend from simply being Jedi or Sith. In 2 BBY, a simulacrum of Desolous fought Darth Vader's secret apprentice, Galen Marek, inside the ruins of the Jedi Trials Chamber.

December 28, 2008 – Battle of Kothlis (Cruentusian War)


The Battle of Kothlis was a large battle that took place during the second year of the Cruentusian War. It occurred when the Srav Federation, deciding to exploit the turmoil amongst the Necasian Military following the collapse of the Necasian-Zayre alliance, launched an attack on the Necasian-controlled world of. Kothlis was rich in resources and also a strategically located point for both sides, with a number of Necasian installations located there. Outnumbered and taken by surprise, the Necasians dug in the Freta Archipelago, where their forces were concentrated. Under the command of their leader Askar Invado, the Necasians attempted to mount a solid defense, but their numbers and equipment proved inadequate to slow down the Srav advance.

The Necasians managed to hold out for two days, fighting on land, sea, and air, with the Sravs gradually pushing forward along the Archipelago using island-hopping tactics. The Necasians believed that defeat was certain until the arrival of the Necasian fighter ace Renard Curl, who, along with accompanying reinforcements, turned the tide of the battle. The Sravs were pushed into retreat by his onslaught, although much of the Necasian infrastructure in the archipelago was wrecked by them in their retreat.

Although the battle was not considered to have massively impacted on the course of the war, it came to be remembered as one of the bloodiest battles of the conflict. This was said to have been due to the loss of life on both sides and the so-called brutality enacted by troops of both factions. For this reason, the battle was also noted for being especially traumatic for the troops who took part.

January 4, 2009 – Mace Windy


Mace Windy was a Human Jedi Master, revered by most within the Jedi Order although distrusted by some others, who sat on the Jedi High Council during the Invasion of Utapau. At the time of his appointment, he was the youngest person in the history of the Jedi Order to sit upon the Jedi High Council. Trained by T'ra Saa after being born on Haruun Kal, during which time he discovered he had the ability to detect shatterpoints in the Force, he was also the master of Padmé Naberrie, referring to her on many occasions as the best student he had ever trained, although it was unknown how many students he had trained prior to accepting her.

One week after hearing reports about a Kaminoan-created clone army to be used against the Galactic Republic, Mace traveled to Kamino where he learned that the army was to be used for the Republic, not against it. He also uncovered what were mysteries to him about the supposed Jedi Master Sido-Dyas who was said to have ordered the clones, and a possible Mandalorian leader named Jango Fett, the latter of whom had been the host for the clones. Mace flew to Nar Shaddaa to find Fett, and questioned him in Fett's office once the suspect was located. After a brief fight in the streets, Mace arrested Fett and brought him to Coruscant, where Mace lost control of his emotions while interrogating Fett about the army and the Mandalorians. Fett later escaped from the Jedi Temple, causing Mace to issue an immediate lock down of the surrounding areas.

January 11, 2009 – Siege of Dantooine


The Siege of Dantooine was a battle in 32 BBY that followed and partially resulted from the Attack on the Legacy. Originally, the had come to negotiate with the. However, when Drazil Drewton, acting as ambassador for the Republic, did not arrive, they thought that they had been tricked and therefore attacked Khoonda, the autonomous government of Dantooine. Not only Kaleesh assisted in the fight against Khoonda, but also s, mercenaries, and the Mandalorian Crusaders. Ludge Ganler himself, the administrator of Khoonda, was captured, along with Tarisian and Raymus, the sons of Drazil Drewton and sole survivors of the previous assassination attempt.

Searching for the captives, Idnum-Ki entered a cave in which he instead found the   Darth Desolous. After brief resistance from the Jedi, Desolous taught him much of the which Idnum would use in the concurrent battle. Meanwhile, his Dular located the captive Drewtons and freed them.

The Jedi then rejoined the battle, and Idnum-Ki fought against General Sheelal in a lightsaber duel. As he himself was not a, Qymaen was no match for Ki's abilities, and he watched as the Dark Jedi turned the tide of the battle in favor of the Republic with. Though the defeated General was allowed to escape, Khoonda was victorious, and celebrated hours after the conclusion of the battle.

January 18, 2009 – SB-3 frigid super battle droid


The SB-3 frigid super battle droid, more commonly known as snow droids, were a modification of the basic Confederate super battle droids used by the Trade Federation, Confederacy of Independent Systems, the New Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Galactic Droid Empire. Snow droids were created specially by Baktoid Combat Automata, the main droid manufacturer of the Confederacy, to solve the problem of regular battle droids and super battle droids performing lower than usual standards in icy environments. They were considered to be very effective. Snow droids were much taller than the other droids. Other features of the snow droids were that they wore white plating to camouflage them in the snow, and they were capable of handling a handheld blaster and the blaster mounted to their wrist.

Snow droids won and lost many battles during the Clone Wars. Major battles they fought in included the battles of Rhen Var, Ilum, Diado, Nelvaan, and Mygeeto. After the main control signal of all the battle droids on every planet, was disabled, snow droids, like the rest of the Confederate armies, were shut down. However, after the Clone Wars, they indirectly inspired the Galactic Empire's snowtroopers, because the Empire knew that they needed a special unit for use on the snowy terrain, to increase efficiency in terrains their basic unit could not.

January 25, 2009 – The Fanon Menace: A Day in the Life of a Stormtrooper


The Fanon Menace: A Day in the Life of a Stormtrooper was a spin-off miniseries from the YouTube series The Fanon Menace. It aired shortly after the show completed its first season, starting on July 1, 2008, and continuing for six weeks. It was six short episodes depicting the life of two stormtroopers, TK-421 and TK-422, during their first day on the Death Star.

However, the first day turned out to be extremely hectic for them. During orientation, the two stormtroopers learned the number one rule around the Death Star was "Do not remove your helmet", which was considered worse than forming a plan to overthrow the Empire. With both stormtroopers sent to solitary confinement, together, they soon discovered the relationship between Darth Vader and Princess Leia. Through a turn of events, they met up with the escaped convicts back at the detention block and witnessed two men, a Wookiee and a Force ghost Jedi free the Princess and escape.

With this look into what went on in the Death Star during Episode IV: A New Hope, audiences got a glimpse of what a day in the life of a stormtrooper really was like. It was directed by Seth Hoover and released through the same two companies as the main series, College Kids Productions and The League of Extraordinary Jedi. It was also the beginning of what would be a continuous broadcasting of mini-series in between each season of The Fanon Menace.

February 1, 2009 – Darth Taral


Darth Taral, previously Idnum-Ki, was a starwars:Cerean and starwars:Jedi Master during the last years of the starwars:Galactic Republic. As a starwars:Padawan, he had an interest, later leading to an obsession, of Sith holocrons. This entailed much discussion over him from the Jedi High Council, but at the time they merely dismissed it as curiosity. After being made a Jedi Master years later, he took Dular as his apprentice in 34 BBY when the Padawan was abandoned by his previous Master, Xarkun.

In 32 BBY, Idnum-Ki joined the Jedi Council of Seers, a group dedicated to stopping the return of the Sith. He did whatever necessary to stop their possible return, even if that meant killing Ibtiseh, a fellow Jedi who he had foreseen would indirectly cause the death of the Jedi Council members. During the same year, he participated in the Siege of Dantooine, in which he was turned to the dark side of the Force by an ancient Sith named Darth Desolous. Idnum gradually began to feed his own Padawan the same teachings, and made occasional visits to Dantooine for further training from Desolous, though he did not consider himself a Sith at the time.

By the time of the Clone Wars, Idnum-Ki had become a manipulative Dark Jedi. He placed seeds of doubt within his own Padawan, and used even Count Dooku, the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, as a tool. He had grown powerful enough to strip the Force away from a Jedi or Sith, and conferred once with Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith.

February 8, 2009 – Banik Kelrada


Banik Kelrada was the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order during the early days of the Alsakan Crisis of 13,000 BBY. He later became an outcast Jedi Master following the events during and after the Conclave on Ossus that sparked a schism amongst the Jedi, which created the Ospion Guardians. He was born on Coruscant and taken into the Order as an infant, and during his training he came to be seen as a skilled duelist by his masters. When he was eighteen years old, Banik was enslaved in the Outer Rim Territories by a mining company during a failed mission with his master, who was killed by the slavers. Although Banik initially attempted escape, the plot failed and Banik remained in custody, during which time he met and fell in love with a woman named Al'eal. Al'eal, however, was killed while saving Banik’s life, after which Banik was finally able to escape from the slavers and return to Coruscant. After psychological testing and a brief retraining period, Banik took his Jedi Trials and was promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight.

Many years later, Banik became a Jedi Master and was granted a seat on the Coruscant Jedi Council, the Jedi governing body in the Great Jedi Pyramid on Coruscant. He later became the Grandmaster of the Coruscant Council, giving him a seat on the Jedi High Council, and after then-Jedi Grandmaster Sarus Kappa resigned from his post, Banik was elected Grandmaster of the Jedi Order. Around this same time, Coruscant was invaded and captured by the Alsakan Union, a religious organization seeking to claim control of Coruscant, an act which started the Alsakan Crisis of 13,000 BBY between the Alsakans and the Galactic Republic.

After the conflict began, Banik attempted to negotiate peace efforts between the Galactic Republic’s Supreme Chancellor Relana Isolde Tanoor and the Alsakan Vicar Lharra in the hopes of avoiding a full-scale war, but Lharra was assassinated while meeting with Banik at the Jedi Enclave on Ossus and the Alsakans implicated Banik in the crime. One week later, Banik called and led the Conclave on Ossus. During the event, he was said to have had a psychotic breakdown and was accused of murdering Jedi Master Edo Tesu, whom Banik had claimed to be a traitor. Although Banik was arrested for the murder, he was able to escape Ossus with the help of two other Jedi Knights and travel to Onderon for safety.

February 15, 2009 – Incident on Adirof's moon


The Incident on Adirof's moon was an event orchestrated in part by Darth Sidious, the, that occurred during the. A shuttle piloted by Raymus Drewton and   Reeves was secretly sent to Adirof, with Dular, a ; three clone troopers including recruited soldiers  Kyle Krenis and  Tarisian Drewton; Daklif Ordo, a ; and two prisoners, Bodotor Thuvat and Dem Nozah, on board. Before it could arrive on Adirof, however, the shuttle was shot down by a  and crash-landed on the planet's moon. All on board except Reeves survived. As the survivors searched for a transport off the seemingly-uninhabited moon, tension rose from previous situations and suspicions had grown from the crash, resulting in the survivors fighting against each other. The fight was quickly interrupted when Separatist droids emerged from the nearby ocean's water.

After escaping the droids, the shuttle-crash survivors determined that, because of the Separatist's occupation of the moon, there would be Separatist starships on the moon which they could use. Soon after, Dular was confronted by Separatist Commander Asajj Ventress and dueled her. Upon locating a, Commander Krenis, Captain Drewton, Lieutenant Drewton, Daklif Ordo, and a clone trooper hijacked it and rescued Dular from the duel. Unknown to them at the time, prisoners Bodotor Thuvat and Dem Nozah had remained on the moon in order to make a deal with Separatist leader Dooku. Though the incident did not go exactly according to Darth Sidious's plan, he was confident that enough had been achieved.

February 22, 2009 – Battle of New Centrif


The Battle of New Centrif was the first armed conflict of the Invasion of Utapau. Beginning shortly after the corporate Trade Federation landed its forces on Utapau, in retaliation for anti-slavery laws passed by the Galactic Republic, the battle was fought between the Federation, led by battle droid commander OOM-9, and the New Centrif Security Forces, led by Security Captain Sotab Jacoma. The purpose of the battle was to destroy the planet’s last remaining active communications array, the other arrays on the planet having already been jammed by the Federation. New Centrif Mayor Arruinada intended to use the array to warn Utapau Queen Sabé Arcadia, who was in the capital city of Ogana, about the arrival of the Federation forces.

After the Federation destroyed the city’s security perimeter gate, the droid forces, which numbered in either the hundreds or thousands, swarmed the city and engaged the security forces and armed townspeople, although the defenders numbered only in the dozens. The New Centrif forces were quickly overwhelmed, resulting in the deaths of virtually all of the security forces within minutes. Jacoma and a few other officers remained alive, although Jacoma ended up killing himself when he used a grenade to destroy the droids in the area. Towards the end of the battle, Arruinada recorded a partial message to send to Queen Arcadia, but the mayor was killed before completing the transmission. The Federation destroyed the communications array and went on to attack Utapau's capital city of Ogana, where they captured Queen Arcadia.

March 1, 2009 – Doluc II


Doluc II was a satellite of Doluc, the primary planetoid of the Doluc system. Though its origins dated back several millions of years, Doluc II did not become the second moon of Doluc until fairly recently in comparison to its birth, approximately 20,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Before then, Doluc II was the primary satellite of Sram I, which was once its own independent celestial body.

Doluc II's surface was green and filled with life, covered with greenery and a variety of fauna. From the thick foliage at the planet's equator to the grasslands around the planet, there was not an area on the planet that lacked plantlife - sans the snowy, polar areas. The forests that dotted the the planet benefited from the warm, humid weather; the vegetation grew rapidly due to the heavy amount of rainfall that the planet received.

Due to the abundance of animal life, the Dolucians who first colonized the planet's surface took up the role of hunter-gatherers and formed nomadic villages throughout the steppes and hill country that encompassed the planet's surface. Eventually, these wanderers were united under the Sons of Bogan, a dark side sect that inhabited the planet for several thousand years. By 2,000 BBY, the Sith Lord Darth Ruin had formed the New Sith Empire, and the Sith's power increased throughout the galaxy. The Dolucians of Doluc used this period of instability to drive the Sons of Bogan off their world and its moons in a four-way campaign that resulted in the Dolucian natives of Doluc gaining Doluc II and its other satellites and establishing them as colony worlds.

However, the Sons of Bogan's lasting influence on the Dolucians of the moon remained after they left and the Dolucians continued to dabble in dark magic and arts even after the Sons of Bogan and the Sith abandoned the planet. The warlord Ronos Ka'i attempted to establish a dark-sided faction independent of Doluc's rule, though he was defeated at the Battle of Icalinas in 640 BBY. The Doluc loyalist faction was victorious, and the battle contributed to growing opposition to Republic policies and intervention in Dolucian wars. This sentiment eventually contributed to the Dolucians stance in the Clone Wars. The faction of Dolucians who opposed Republic sovereignty was the most popular and numerous on Doluc; after the Battle of Doluc, however, the survivors who migrated to Doluc II began to oppose Republic action and support anti-Republican policies on the moon. This marked the unofficial beginning of the Dolucian Liberty and Autonomy movement.

After the Dolucian Separatists were defeated during the Battle of Doluc II, Dolucian public opinion continued to support the notion that the Doluc system had the right to govern itself and it took military action against the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances to subjugate the independently-minded Dolucian people. After almost two decades of constant rebellion, the Dolucians' desire for self-government was quelled by the Vancita Alliance at Sram II in 32 ABY.

March 8, 2009 – Battle of Ahara (Cruentusian War)


The Battle of Ahara was a battle during the Cruentusian War. It occurred when the elite commando group the Lost Ones, cut off from their civilization, arrived on the desert world of Ahara to activate a secret cadre of droids belonging to the Infinite Empire, the collapsed galactic Empire they had once worked for. As part of this plan, they had obtained the supposedly powerful artifact known as the Hand of Darkness several months before. In the process, however, they destroyed a spy outpost on the world belonging to the fascist Necasian Military, which managed to send out a distress call before its destruction. Both an elite Necasian squad, led by proclaimed Necasian hero Haveer Jarn, and a group of Srav Hammer Division troops led by Jarn's counterpart, Nataska Vergulva, picked up the distress call and arrived on the planet, and both had to reluctantly work with each other against the Ratakan droid legions. Meanwhile, the Zayre leader Storm Ironwings, treated as a heroine by her people, also participated in the battle, engaging the Lost Ones leader Ravyr in a duel. Nonetheless, with the combined efforts of the two commando groups, and to a lesser extent the Zayre, Ravyr was defeated and the Lost Ones fled, with their temple on the planet being razed by a Srav nuclear strike.

March 15, 2009 – Phydah Forest apparition


An apparition appeared in the Phydah Forest of Dantooine in 1 BBY to duel the Human Jedi Knight Narod Antrell. The apparition spoke few words and instead immediately enacted the duel with Antrell, seeking to taunt, intimidate and ultimately defeat him. However, the apparition was defeated after the brief duel and faded into nothingness.

The apparition was a specter of the Force that was created by Narod Antrell himself. The Jedi Knight, in an attempt to deal with the troubles of the Galactic Civil War between the dominant Galactic Empire and the rebelling Alliance to Restore the Republic, created the apparition as a way to deal with the stress by eventually dueling it. For this reason, the specter itself told Antrell it was he who had created the apparition during their duel.

Although only a specter of the Force, the apparition still took on a physical form for the duel between it and the Jedi Knight. The apparition took on a Human body with brown hair, eyes, and tan skin, and the apparition was slightly taller than Antrell. It wore black, casual clothing and wielded a red lightsaber. The apparition was actually a physical combination of some of Antrell's enemies, created through his mind.

March 22, 2009 – Jar Binks


Jar Binks was an Otolla Gungan and the exiled Crowned Prince of the Gungan Empire during the Invasion of Utapau. Born on Utapau to Gungan leader Gorgr Binks, he enlisted in the Gungan military in the city of Otoh Gunga at a young age where he served as the watchman of an ancient relic, called the Kaiburr crystal by the government of Utapau. During this time, Binks’s father died and it was decided that Binks was too young to take the throne, so he was replaced as leader of the Gungans by Rugor Nass. The assignment to guard the relic, which was his duty as the Crowned Prince, eventually led to his exile, as a female colleague named Scortora distracted Binks and allowed the Utapau government to steal the relic. This caused the Gungan High Council to exile Binks to the surface of the planet.

Two years later, the Trade Federation shipping cartel invaded Utapau in retaliation for the planet’s support of the Republic Anti-Slavery Law. Binks encountered Jedi Master Jard Dooku and Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi in the forests and offered to bring them to Otoh Gunga for safety, provided that they helped him gain favor with the Gungans so he would be accepted back into the city. The three were arrested upon entry into the city and taken before the Gungan High Council. Dooku was able to secure them a transport, as well as secure Binks’s freedom from the execution he would face due to his return. The group later arrived in Utapau’s capital of Ogana where they rescued Queen Sabé Arcadia and her advisers from their Federation captors and escaped on the planet onto a royal starship, setting course for the desert planet Tatooine.

March 29, 2009 – Second Battle of Ankarr (Cruentusian War)


The Second Battle of Ankarr was a comparatively large battle during the Cruentusian War. Having learned of the adopted homeworld of the Zayre species, Ankarr, the Srav Federation launched a full-scale invasion of the planet, intending to subjugate the Zayre race and remove them as threats. The Sravs also saw the move as vengeance against the Zayre for assisting the Srav enemies earlier in the war. To strengthen their numbers, the Sravs hired a large force of Savi Alliance mercenaries, and allowed Savi commanders to participate in the planning and execution of the battle. Both sides then launched a lightning assault on Ankarr, with Zayre warriorwoman Storm Ironwings and former Necasian leader Carsal Redharn mounting the defense. The Zayre, however, considered themselves disadvantaged by what they felt was the orbital superiority of the other factions, and took losses from liberal use of chemical and nuclear weapons by the Sravs. Under Ironwing's command, the still Zayre managed to hold their ground in some areas. Nonetheless, the Zayre were eventually overwhelmed by numbers and firepower, and the Sravs began what was considered to be a repressive occupation of the planet. Following the battle, Irownings and Redharn fled underground and led an unsuccessful resistance movement against the Sravs before eventually fleeing off world.

April 5, 2009 – Battle of Vontor
The Battle of Vontor was one of the first battles of the Great Jedi Purge, instigated by the executive Order 66 ordering the clone troopers of the newly-formed First Galactic Empire, superseding the Galactic Republic, to destroy all of the Jedi Order. After a pacification mission on the world of Vodran, the 404th Star Corps, led by the Jedi General Suruar'heo and her Padawan, the Jedi Commander Zeri Undis, were in the Royal Palace of the Hutt crime lord Noukeer on Vontor, forming an alliance with the Hutt's cartel.

During the negotiations, however, the clone trooper commander CC-1118 "Torr" received Order 66 from the Galactic Emperor, the then-Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic, Palpatine, hindering the negotiations just as they were ending. As a result, Torr and his clone troopers attacked their Jedi superiors, leading Noukeer's bodyguards to believe the Republic had betrayed the Hutt. In retaliation, led by the Nikto bodyguard Timmommit, Noukeer's men also fought against the clone troopers.

In the ensuing battle, Suruar'heo had her Padawan escape through one of the palace's hideouts into underground caverns, while the Jedi Master held off the 404th. The Twi'lek was killed, although not before killing numerous clone troopers, along with Noukeer and all of his bodyguards. Torr was injured in combat, so he sent clone trooper captain CC-1402 "Nicra" after Undis; while underground, the Padawan did battle with the captain and his men and killed them, buying her time to ultimately escape. In the aftermath of the battle, the clone trooper CT-24-7714 searched for Undis to no avail.

April 12, 2009 – Battle of Ogana


The Battle of Ogana was a battle during the Invasion of Utapau, a conflict between the Trade Federation shipping cartel and the planet of Utapau. The battle, fought between the Trade Federation Droid Army and the Utapau Security Forces, resulted in a victory by the Federation that allowed them to capture Ogana, Utapau’s capital city. Queen Sabé Arcadia, who had been under security protection in the Ogana Royal Palace, ordered her forces to stop fighting what she believed a futile battle and was captured by the Federation forces. After her capture, Arcadia was told by Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray that she would have to sign a treaty that would legitimize the Federation occupation of the planet.

Arcadia refused to sign the treaty, so she was assigned to Federation Camp Four, a Trade Federation concentration camp on the outskirts of Ogana. While en route to the camp, the battle droids assigned to escort her and her advisers were attacked by Jedi Master Jard Dooku, Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and exiled Gungan Prince Jar Binks. The three rescued the queen and her people before bringing them to a starship that managed to escape the Federation blockade in orbit around the planet.

April 19, 2009 – Allura Drayneen


Allura Drayneen was a Force-sensitive female Human member of the Imperial Inquisitorius who was born on the Colonies world of Yir Tangee. Allura grew up harboring a deep aspiration to pursue a successful career as a medical specialist. She eventually took the opportunity to make her aspiration a reality and attended the Byblos Academy of Medicine where she trained towards becoming a doctor. Allura ultimately graduated from the academy and became a medical trainee within the Galactic Empire. After causing a foul-up during her posting on Denon, Allura was demoted and relocated to an Imperial prison facility on the Outer Rim world of Dathomir. During her time on Dathomir, Allura’s medical knowledge was exploited by the prison’s warden, Garis Lorvan. Lorvan coerced Allura to serve him as a torturer, though she occasionally tried to attain the trust of her patients without inflicting pain on them. Regardless, Allura was forced to undertake Lorvan’s orders submissively.

Allura’s Force-sensitivity was discovered when an Inquisitor known as Lyon Olof took control of the prison in response to incursions by Nightsisters. Allura was interrogated by Olof when she was suspected of being a Nightsister spy. After her potential was realized, Allura was eventually convinced by Olof to become a member of the Inquisitorius herself. After completing her training at the College of the Inquisition, Allura was sent to the Citadel Inquisitorius where she worked as an interrogator.

Allura was eventually given her first assignment, which was to root out a terrorist cell on Dakshee. Allura worked with an Imperial Intelligence Major known as Orem Ducat, and she was eventually able to establish the identities of the terrorist ringleaders. However, without consulting Allura beforehand, Orem Ducat oversaw the complete massacre of the ringleaders afterward. Following the end of the assignment, Allura was deemed unready to become an Inquisitor in full.
