The Dark Empire is an indirect successor state to the Brotherhood of the Maw and the Galactic Empire, formed from the Neo-Mawite survivors of the Second Great Hyperspace War and the Imperial Remnant led by the late Ignacious Korvan , which was in direct opposition to the surviving Imperial Military Protectorate once known as the Empire. Located in the Outer Rim and led by the reborn Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Solipsis, following his resurrection by Ashin Cardé Varanin and her Dark Side Prophets. The new regime claims Carlac as it's temporary seat of power, nestling itself deep in the ruins of Citadel Caelitus, a mocking statement to the galaxy at large in the wake of the Second Great Hyperspace War, nearly two decades later, and to the Imperial factions they face near and far for supremacy of Imperial Space.
The Dark Empire is openly run by dark side users, known as the Dark Side Elite, who carry out the will of the Empire in a manner similar to that of the Emperor's Hands. Among there number - Dark Jedi, Fallen Imperial Knights, Dark Side Adepts, and Many More gather to bring glory to the Empire's name. There were once always seven of them, and once one died, another was immediately appointed. No such limit remains, but the practice remains the same. When one is slain, another is found to take their place in a bid to gather a formidable force of dark siders capable of remaking the galaxy in their image. They are not alone, amidst their glamour, the Knights of Ren endure, bringing with them the savagery of the Unknown Regions and the sharpness of the Shadow.
Between the Dark Imperial aesthetic, and the savage Mawite auxiliaries, our faction combines elements from the Dark Empire-era Galactic Empire with the RAW war aesthetic of the Brotherhood of the Maw. There are many opportunities for writers who are interested in playing "the bad guy" in a manner fit for the role. From the secret Banite masters of the New Sith Order, to the corrupt Imperial Warlords. From the Mawite Marauders of the Scar Hounds, to the secret agents of COMPNOR. Nearly anything can be molded to fit your area of play as we take our charge on the galaxy at large.
Evil Never Dies.
Remind the Galaxy who we are.
