Dark Crisis: The Jen'jidai

[Mother Askani]

"Perhaps one important i've come to realize is that...it's such a quiet thing to fall; fall into sanity. I've realized that I have lived selfishly, that I have participated in the indoctrinated schemes of the Force. I was betrayed a long time ago, and then once again in death. I have been forced to live in a compromised and chaotic universe time and time again...I believe it's all a lie. This is all simply a destructive game to keep balance, and we the pawns to be used in the scheme of things."​

Whether she acknowledged it or not, her resurrection at the hands of the Sith Lord Darth Vornskr gave her the chance she needed to enact her personal vendetta she nurtured in the world between worlds. Having been restored to life fueled her passion to begin a conquest against the very thing she, and so many of her contemporaries called on; The Force. Though she was under the influence of her creator, and against her will which inhibited her ability to act on her own free will so long as she was in his service and as long as he lived in his current state of power.

She knew this, and thus swore her false allegiance so that she may establish her own footing. Within the clutches of Kaine she enacted her will just as much as his and with the help of his current apprentice she has gathered a group of six Dark jedi in an effort to enact her will on the galaxy. For months, she along with the others have been in the service of the Primeval, posing as followers of the growing dark cult in an effort to gain access to the Sith Academy on Korriban. Prior to this operation she had been plagued by visions about a dark influence that had subsided there and could offer her the answers she sought as long as she was able to match its hate and provide it blood. This was the first step on the road of many, what knowledge she sought lived within the tombs in The Valley of the Dark Lords.

The time was approaching, and thus it was time for them to act. It took them a while to gain the knowledge on the whereabouts of Tulak Hords Tomb. Everyone was expected to rendezvous at the coordinates given anonymously days in advance. The Togruta left minutes before dawn struck, before light could cast shadows. Her moves were swift and quick a trait that she had grown into over the years.

[Rapax]

Rapax's interceptor landed near the coordinates as the ramp lowered, He walked down and looked across the barren landscape before him before walking off to the rendezvous point... he wondered who else would come as well as the one who gave he coordinates in the first place..It was high time there work paid off and they where finally going to reach there goal...hopefully what ever they find he can study and use later for his own use. He kept his armor on incase things go side ways...he rarely takes off the armor he always made it a point to stay prepared when going on trips like these.

[Via Dolorosa]

For as far back as she could recall, she had once believed that the Force was a gift, a source of magnificent wonders and mysteries to unravel; to be commanded and wielded by one's own desires. Lately, she began to see through the veil of it's lies and began to understand that it was no gift; but a curse. The galaxy was suffering by the countless wars being waged upon it's delicate skin, most involving those that could call upon the Force at will. The One Sith conquests, the Grand Republic's failed counter-attacks against the One Sith, the Primeval-Mando wars; each one led by wielders of the Force.​

​

But the wars where just only one glimpse of the growing problems. Countless individuals had not only been left homeless, but most where being enslaved under the mask of 'we love our citizens' by Force users; mainly those that had taken the more fanatic route of the Darkside, and on some pointes, even the Lightside. She knew deep down in her cold heart that if the galaxy was to survive, then something about the Force needed to be done.​

​

It had been nearly a lifetime since she stepped foot on Korriban, feeling a strong pull of the Darkside to draw her closer to yet another embrace. She had long ago forsaken her title of Darth whilst putting as much distance between her beliefs and what she knew and those of what the Sith Orders were passing along as theirs. She was no longer Sith, having broken the chains of their restraints she had become something far more dangerous and deadlier. Crouching down, she scooped up a handful of red sand watching it slip through her fingers, while basking in the Darkside's haunting grace.​

​

"Every final chapter must be proceeded by starting chapter," her voice whispering to the ghosts of Korriban.​

[Belle Morte]

There was a sound, arriving there was easy when you cared little about anothers well being and Belle stood tall. The armorweave and duraplast prudeii armor made for inquisitors along with her spinning saber on her back. The twin clubs a lightwhip and electrowhip on her thigh and collapsible hunter's bow from the old sith empire on her other hip. She was armored and armed but not giving much of an air, or really trying to as her long ponytail was braided and descending along her spine to her ankles tipped with a zenji needle she could use as an actre weapon. The straight back and flawlessly detail composure when she stood still clasping hands behind her back.... Lips tightly together and eye looking at the others. Her biot twitching and moving a little in its socket until she was ready to meet this mysterious woman and her assembled group. The tomb was only a formality.

2hrs ago on Korriban.

" Korriban?!" he jeered as he prepared in his ship. Kezeroths history with Korriban was... painful. His hate burned great while on this rock and he was quite grumpy. This message he received was odd to him. If this was a trap then this little meeting would be fun. Standing in his armory section of the ship he surveyed the ancient armor that displayed before him. A sith styled Dark Armor that was stained with the blood of hundreds of thousands. All Innocent blood.

Staring at the Armor the Epicanthix could feel the cursed invisible energy surge. The last time he worn the armor he grew very aggressive and borderline insane. Turning away from it he sighed some.


30 Minutes later

The back door of the ship dropped down with a slam and heavy footsteps followed. Armored from head to toe Kezeroth growled slightly as the whispers of the dead tickled his mind. Each step sounded a rattle from his belt which held his personal Lightsaber and his Sith sword Inferno . He would arrive at the Valley of the Dark Lords soon, even now he could see the statues peek into the dusty sky.

OOC: Was attempting to wait for Tes, but I'll go ahead and post.

"I'm pleased you all were able to make it..." she would speak in a soft, and exotic tone of voice. For what it was worth it oierced the veil of darkness and light that proceeded to make up dawn on Korriban. She stepped forward, drenched in dark robes that weren't all to disimilar to her Jedi robes from long long ago.

She looked around, performing a 180 degree turn that allowed her to bring them all into her gaze. She formed a smirk, some she knew personally, as was the case with [member="Darth Venefica"] they were...familiar with one another and all the more reason for the Togruta to recruit such a powerful being in her own right. The others however, they were but products of tales she heard along the way; especially [member="Kezeroth the Unyielding"]

"My initial message was rather vague, but I couldn't reveal too much as that would complicate matters. However, I know it has been quite some time but we have finally located the information we needed." she pointed outward towards a large opening ahead. There lies Tulak Hords tomb, and within his darkest secrets..."

"The Red Engine lies within...so does our destination."

Her attention was on the one there when she looked to see the togruta as she spoke about their goals. The red engine was something she knew well about with a small grin appearing on her face while she pulled the bow off her hip and readied it checking the projectile heads. A look at their party and she was wondering if they had a healer or a thief... the big man would make a good tank and she was certain they had a black mage in here like Venefica who could work to use those sith magics. She'd be able to wprl with that but going after something from one of the strongest and most ancient of sith or dark jedi. She could see them getting through it. "Sounds fun."

 

[Rapax]

Rapax checked his gear to see if everything was in check...His grenades where still in check...his wrist weaponry on his hammer all checked out. He had his two Dauntless blades and the blade of Satvas, and he had his two lightsabers with him. He saw the new arrivals he noted [member="Darth Venefica"]'s arrived as well ...hes has previous dealings with her but its been good so far.....and that he saw [member="Kezeroth the Unyielding"]....good they would need such a creature in there hunt He heard [member="Sochi Ru"]'s voice and mention of the Red Engine....the artifact that holds the power to absorb the force around it ....such a powerful device...if he can find text's to copy and impliment later he will look for it...he doubted he can take the actual engine for him but texts on how to create it again for his own use later...those are easier to come by.

" Red Engine?" Kezeroth raised a brow. He knew of this infernal machine, It was highly sought after when he was a slave to the sith over 2000 years ago. Then he was a Gen'dai and now he was something less but his memories stayed the same. The message and meeting the group was to find sith artifacts? Kezeroth should of known better. Half of the artifacts on korriban were looted long ago. Rather hesitant to relive his past the Epicanthix stood firm.

" I only know two people here and I dont trust anyone. So i'll ask this..." he paused and stepped toward [member="Sochi Ru"] rather aggressively. " Whats in it for me?" he asked in his rather brooding tone. If anyone their knew anything about Keze then this would of been expected.

She watched the others seemingly accept the mission laid out before them. Her pitch black eyes cut through the group tirelessly, and she hoped there wouldn't be any further questions. Though she was with the others when their attention turned towards [member="Kezeroth the Unyielding"] who seemed to be the one unaware of their purpose. Perhaps it was her fault, but she didn't care entirely too much for explaining everything, nowadays she preferred others to tag along if they chose.

She was in the center of the group, and therefore the one to be singled out by the behemoth he was. However, she didn't falter under his figure, she had seen much bigger. Her facial expression was tranquil at best, and she didn't move a muscle within her face. She allowed him to present his question, perhaps this would serve as an answer to all their questions.

"What exactly is it your looking for Kezeroth? I'm sure everyone here is here for a specific purpose and ulterior motive..." she stopped speaking for a moment, and peered into his eyes. "Is it the thrill of battle you seek? Do you seek forbidden knowledge? Or perhaps your seeking power? I have a personal vendetta to uphold, that is my goal...but I promise you that whatever you seek you will have. I need you to learn to trust me...and if you find that you can't, trust your instincts; after all you didn't come this far for nothing." she said with emotion in her words, a passion used to convince.

That, however, would be all she would say on the matter. She smirked and started walking towards the entrance of the tomb.

Well this was turning out fun and exciting as she stood there looking at the ones and different people wondering what their motives might be but not really carring it was something to do and in a galaxy where you usually got ahead knowing whose butt to blow smoke up she preferred doing things for enjoyment over having a personal goal.. Made it simple and kept plans from being revealed or disrupted. Though it also meant if you did something someone else wanted to do they usually held unnatural grudges or had their friends go after you as they had no real stones. So she stood there looking at Sochi and shrugged. "So lets shoot things already. Sith undead aren't going to die of old age like we might."

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Taking off his Helmet Kezeroth grabbed his face with a tight grip. Ripping the flesh from its place a dark cloud surrounded him. His entire appearance changed before them magically . It seemed now in this new appearance the man was Feeorin? " Power none rivals my own... No knowledge is out of my reach. If you can make such a machine work for yourself then maybe we will both understand why I am here." he said as he followed behind [member="Sochi Ru"]
