Besnasc

Besnasc was a male who served the New Sith Empire. He was a junior member of Sith Overlord Vedya Gasald's advisory council, where he had responsibility for special taxation and conscription of civilian resources; he sometimes skimmed additional profits for himself, but always at the expense of the citizenry rather than his master. He had a number of Sith Acolytes and dark side adepts in his service, but no junior Sith Lords.

Besnasc was present in a minor command capacity (directing a flotilla of a dozen ships) at the Battle of Eriadu, after which he met Darshkére. He was not entirely thrilled with Darshkére's anointing as a Sith Lord and elevation to Gasald's council in the span of two months, but he was genial in associating with Darshkére, both to size the other Sith up and out of genuine good humor after Eriadu. His humor soured at the Battle of Allanteen, where Gasald's Kiss of Death was destroyed, taking most of her inner circle with her; as one of the seniormost Sith left alive, Besnasc ordered a retreat to, then down the.

As the dozen Sith Lords who had survived Allanteen rendezvoused with Darshkére at Eriadu, Besnasc feared the Council of Five would seek one of the survivors to blame for the debacle, though he hoped to pass blame onto the late Darth Kra'all. When the Sith met in council, the other Lords rejected Besnasc's plan to hunker down in place; already annoyed, Besnasc was initially unnerved by the proposal that they elect one of their own as the new Overlord. However, when the clear weight of support fell to Darshkére, Besnasc saw a viable chance to return to their own territory and a new candidate to draw the Council's wrath, so he voted for Darshkére and pledged his fealty as well.
