Order of Enblackenment

The Order of Enblackenment, also known as the Voidbringers, was a fanatical cult that believed that all biological life (and anything created by lifeforms) was a disease on the natural universe, and sought to destroy life where the opportunity presented itself.

They worshipped empty space (which they referred to as the "Void") as if it were a deity.

Description
The Voidbringers believed that the universe should revert to its pre-life stage. Some Voidbringers, known as "void magickers", were Force-sensitive and were considered masters of the dark side. They had no official hierarchy save for their leader, who often was referred to as the "Voidmaster", who was unknown to the public but believed to also be Force-sensitive.

Voidbringers primarily operated as terrorists and assassins, while others refrained from harming lifeforms and instead came together for mass suicides, such as a Voidbringer mass suicide on Corellia in which more than 400 Voidbringers died to arsenic poisoning. Terrorist attacks that were attributed to the Voidbringers occurred across the galaxy, though were primarily concentrated in the Core Worlds.

History
The Voidbringers were formed, according to intelligence reports, as early as 600 BBY and were initially a relatively peaceful and small cult that simply preached about the harm brought unto the universe by life (warfare, pollution, mining, etc.), however as the centuries progressed and their ideologies became more widespread, the Voidbringers became more radical in their antibiology beliefs. When a spike in cold-blooded killings and seemingly unmotivated terrorist attacks across the Corusca sector terrorized the public, investigators immediately realized a structured organization was behind these attacks and, after a lengthy investigation, discovered the existence of the Voidbringers. Raids by the Judicial Forces and Coruscant Security Force on Voidbringer facilities led to a decrease in these attacks across the sector, confirming their suspicions that these cultists were behind the aggression. Despite this, though, many more attacks were later connected to the Voidbringers, leading to many more Republic operations. By 100 BBY, the Voidbringers were seemingly all but disbanded, as attacks on the Coruscanti from thereon had no clear link to this particular cult.

In reality, the remaining Voidbringers - most of which Force-sensitive - went into hiding to continue their worship and occasionally fulfill their desire to murder, often taking on careers as assassins and mercenaries; they also still occasionally carried out terrorist attacks on Coruscant, though made better strides to cover their tracks. In 68 BBY, a Jedi Knight named Lyle Tonarr defected from the Jedi Order and became a Voidbringer, after which he inexplicably acquired an army of security droids with which he attempted to occupy the Senate District on Coruscant. The Judicial Forces and Coruscant police officers were immediately deployed and managed to defeat the droids; Tonarr fled the "battlefield" and attempted to escape in a stolen landspeeder, but was confronted by two other Jedi Knights who managed to slay Tonarr after a brief duel - this event became known as the "Voidbringer Crisis" and the Voidbringers once more became demonized in the media. They were also officially categorized as a terror cell after this event.

What became of the Voidbringers from thereon was unknown, but it was believed by investigators that they continued to operate in secrecy as a network of assassins loosely associated with the Black Sun crime syndicate. In 14 BBY, a celebrity was assassinated on Chandrila by being telekinetically choked, though the Force-sensitive assassin was captured by police officers following a lengthy standoff; when investigated, the assassin claimed to be a Voidbringer and warned the interrogators that his peers were plotting another mass-attack on Coruscant - he was subsequently executed. Imperial investigators remained alert for an attack on Coruscant, though beyond the typical petty crime and gang warfare that plagued Coruscant's underlevels, there seemed to be no spike in violent activity on the planet as promised. Nonetheless, it was unclear whether or not they were still active as assassins.
