Darth Valens (TFs)

"Palpatine hates his son, if that Sith didn't love his son in some twisted way, then he wouldn't even feel that."

- speaking on Valens and his father's twisted Hate-based love for his son.

Darth Valens whom had been also known by his birth name as Cassian Palpatine, Lord Valens, the Emperor's Wrath or simply the Wrath. He was a Dark Lord of the Sith and of  that had been sent to be trained on Korriban from the Spirits of the ancient Sith Lords, during this journey he became the unofficial apprentice of  and the successor to the title of Sith Emperor, Valens takes interest in Luke Skywalker who he wants to use to rebuild the Sith Empire within the shell of Palpatine's Galactic Empire.

Valens was the son of Palpatine and an unnamed woman of the thus making him possibly the biological descendant of  and, Valens showed himself to be particularly capable in both Lightsaber Combat and Force powers to the extent of a Sith Inquisitor's capacity in Sith Sorcery, due to the might of his skills after being recalled by Palpatine from his training he was chosen by Palpatine to be the agent and fist of the Emperor wherever he went therefore Palpatine revived and gave him the rank of Emperor's Wrath.

Birth and Youth
Cassian was born to and an unnamed woman of the  a few months before the beginning of the Clone Wars, born on Dromund Kass he was raised in secret by his mother whom was possessed by a spirit shard from 's spirit, allowing to use her as a temporary avatar in the Galaxy despite the slow destruction that it would bring her body. In 17 BBY at the age of five, his father came to Dromund Kass and was surprised to see his son being trained by his untrained mother, Cassian's mother died upon trying to leave Dromund Kass with Palpatine and the semi-trained youth was considered a "blessing of the Ancient Sith Lords" and even "of the Darkside" to.

Upgrades
In 15 BBY, Palpatine continued to train his son further in the Darkside and decided that the boy needed to become stronger and so he sent for his personal Prophet of the Dark Side:, using a combination of Science and Sith Alchemy in Project Thirty-Three that took a great number of test subjects it was by the will of and the  that Valens survived.

He was the only successful member that lived without dying later on and became a successful Hybrid with amazing powers, from his Human form he deluded the people into believing he was normal, but his Sith species genetics enhanced his bodily speed and strength to inhuman levels as well as his Dark side capacity beyond human limits alone, his Chiss mental redesigning made him have a higher mental capacity/reaction speed and gain the ability of Photographic memory.

With this great success he was trained further by Palpatine in the basics of the Sith and other Dark Force sensitive aspects before being sent out into the Galaxy three years later in 12 BBY, his mission was to go to worlds of Darkside interest and gain further knowledge on the Darkside whether he had to call spirits to do so or learn from the Holocrons of deceased Sith Lords he found, this quest would eventually cause Palpatine to lose his grip on his own and for Cassian to meet once again.

It was during this time that Cassian travelled to and met with the, they offered for him to drink from the  and bathe in the  to partially transform him into a Celestial, initially he refused and the  agreed that the future they had seen of him agreeing had yet to arrive and still waited in the future for when he was both stronger and ready.

Birth of Darth Valens
began to teach Cassian countless arts and skills in which he could increase his own power, he learned the ancient Sith Sorcerer arts and was introduced to two more of 's Sith counterparts: the spirits of who trained Cassian in Sith Warrior combat and  who taught Cassian Sith Inquisitor abilities and the secret Sith Spells that he had learned during his time on the, when Cassian had grown stronger he was finally approached again by  to make his ultimate sacrifice and to take on a Sith name.

told Cassian of an unnamed heavily populated world that many had come together for a large gathering on, more importantly was the fact that a large group of Darksiders had come to the planet for a secret meeting which Cassian decided to crash, arriving on the planet he used the spell to bend the will of these Darksiders to his own and led them to his private hanger on the planet which he then sealed using only Life-support to sustain all life within. Creating a circle of Sith Runes on the floor he began the ritual and had his enslaved Dark Jedi chant the spell outside the Circle as he stood within it, once the spell was complete all the life energy of the Living Entities on the world outside the Circle and Force presences were absorbed into the circle causing all life and force sensitivity on the planet to end, all this energy was then absorbed by Cassian making him ready to pronounce himself by Sith Title.

Before he could choose a Sith name however appeared before him and gave him a warning about the spell, the Immortality garnered was only temporary and would not stop his body from weakening from aging and extreme levels of Darkside Corruption, this made it more likely that in later years his body will be weakened to the point that someone could kill him and it was never assured that Cassian would be able to transfer his spirit into another body without preparation. Deciding that he needed to increase his strength once again Cassian made a desperate choice, he would go back to where he would bathe and drink his fill from the  and the, thus making himself Part- in the process and eternally young.

then appeared before him once again, knighting him a Sith Master under the known universal Sith title and with the given name being Darth Valens, Vitiate's spirit and the spirit of all the other Sith Lords he had met began to work on the next stage of their plan my half-heartedly training other Force Sensitives and Dark Jedi whom would one day be forced into the service of the newly aspiring Sith Emperor, Darth Valens had risen and the path for his dream of ultimate power had only just begun.

Return to the Empire
Valens would eventually be recalled to the Empire by his father in

Personality and traits
"My power has come to encompass lives, worlds and entire armies. When I gain power and victory, I want even more and more, and together we will gain the very Galaxy for ourselves. Take a taste of the Darkside, of the start of power that I offer, and you will never go back."

- Darth Valens to Luke Skywalker.

Darth Valens had a somewhat serious personality and sometimes even gentlemanly, he had been raised by spirits of the Sith Lords and his father therefore knowledge of gentlemanly etticate during celebrations like the Imperial Galas and Balls, Valens appeared as an influential and aiding statesman of the Imperial Government with brutal loyalty to his father who was the Galactic Emperor. This couldn't have been further from the truth however as the power-plays of the Sith once again reared their ugly heads, Valens and Palpatine had always been at odds with Palpatine hating him one minute and commenting behind his back on how Valens was "a chip off the old block", Valens was indeed a powerful Sith who like his father and Emperor Vitiate had mastered his emotions and wielded them against his enemies instead of being overcome by them like individuals such as.

Valens' greatest skill however was something that he held in common with both his father and the Sith Lord, Valens was a inspiring speaker where he had easily been able to rally a crowd of individuals into an uproar with very minor touches of the Force to aid him, his youth and unnaturally energetic power radiated outwards catching the minds of civilians and soldiers alike causing the Rebellion to abate in the face of his opposition. Valens however didn't exactly lie to his people and wouldn't make his soldiers do something that he himself wouldn't have done himself at some point, Valens would be kind and smile to those he truly cared about and this was evident with the way he treated despite the Chiss' coldness and high expectations who despite this had become a friend to the young Sith.

Valens also held interest in a number of aspects that all Sith desired: more power and Immortality. Valens wanted more power in each aspect in his life; politically he wanted to be Emperor, militarily he wanted to be Commander-in-Chief of his Army, as a Sith he wanted to know more and gain more power than any Sith past, as an individual he desired to become Immortal and live forever. It was these goals that pushed him along and his greatest enemies were the remaining Jedi along with the Rebellion on one side and Palpatine and his Inner Circle on the other. Valens eventually decided that he needed to play both sides against each other and so sided with the Empire to that end, already the Prince of the Galactic Empire gave him a larger chance of inheriting the Empire from his father upon his death, concentrating on destroying the Jedi and the collapsing Rebellion.

Physical Appearance


"He was the best looking youth in all the Empire, he rivalled none in beauty or masculinity, never being rivalled... until you."

- Darth Vader explaining the fact of Valens being quite physical attractive.

Darth Valens had short dark hair and blue eyes with a strain of grey, he had a buff upper body used to reinforce the strength that he wielded and was usually the main source of his power being the centre of his gravity while in combat, lean and powerful legs which were used for swift bolts across lands or powerful jumping bounds over large distances, swift and powerful arms that made rapid and powerful attacks at enemies easily. He had full rosy lips and a very handsome young face, and when submersed in the Darkside, his eyes turned into a blood red colour.

Valens had the physical appearance of a human however his mind and genetics were anything but, his genetics held that of the Sith species and the Midi-chlorians that came with it which calling about the Darkside easily reinforced his physical capacities, Valens retained however the mentality of the Chiss species including the advanced mental capabilities that came with it. Valens used the Darkside countless times, to strengthen himself physically and was an exception to ordinary Sith, who instead destroyed their body overusing the Darkside instead of using the knowledge they had garnered to maintain it instead.

Powers and Abilities
Valens was incredibly powerful in the Force and especially the Darkside due to his growth in the Force and training by multiple Sith spirits, Emperor Vitiate himself wanted the youth who shared the first letter of his Sith name with to become the new incarnation of the Dark Lord of the Sith and become Sith Emperor over the Galactic Empire, to that he added a lot of effort and skill into the youth and garnered him up so that he could take his place in history.

He was such a master of the Darkside that he was able to channel the Force and adapt it in ways that suited a variety of needs, including subduing, stunning or killing foes. Valens had frequently proven to be exceedingly proficient in the use of Force lightning. The young Sith was a proficient lightsaber duellist, utilizing either a standard lightsaber or two lightsabers in combat. Valens could combine his skills with a lightsaber with his talents in the dark side, such as channelling Force Lightning through those lightsabers.
