Success or Death.
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Raxil Dron was born on Ojom in the deep Core, the second son of Durrum and Havo, hard working, working class citizens who ran a speeder workshop. The Jedi had records of him and had scheduled a pickup, but war got in the way. The One Sith stole Jedi records to recruit young force sensitives prior to their emergence on Prakith. Raxil was one of the young who were taken and trained in the ways of the Sith. He was there when they conquered the planet, and he purged it of all trace of his existence.
In doing so, Darth Acier was born from the ashes of Raxil's life.
Raxil was recruited by the Sith Assassins and rose quickly through their ranks. He was strong, and better at stealth than one would guess from a person his size and bulk. However, when the One Sith began to crumble, Acier chose the side of the revolutionaries. In a duel with Darth Ophidia he lost his lower hands. He surrendered to her and the Dark Council, and she let him live. In this time, he started his investigations into alchemy and forging, helping the Sith create weapons and armour to defeat the Jedi.
During the battle of Coruscant, he lost his eye in battle with a Jedi, but escaped. He later joined the Sith Order and was present during the Rebellion of Korriban. However, when Korriban City was bombed, his legs and pelvis were crushed by debris. He survived and was dug out from the ruins, but his legs went unchecked for so long that he never fully recovered. It was after this that he truly started dedicating himself to creation and became a fully fledged Sith Artisan.
Now, he has earned the position of Quartermaster of the Sith Assassins, as which he oversees the making and development of their weapons, equipment and lairs. He does not have the political power of the Assassins' Council, but they depend on him to provide them with the kit that will help them complete their missions, and also teach the future artisans of the Assassins.
- Intent: To sub an NPC for the Sith Assassins.
- Image Credit: N/A
- Role: Advisor, quartermaster, armourer, weaponsmith, and alchemist of the Sith Assassins.
- Permissions: N/A.
- Links:
- Age: Middle-aged.
- Force Sensitivity: Master.
- Species: Besalisk.
- Appearance: Raxil is a male Besalisk. He stands at 2.20 meters tall and has a heavy build that is atypical for an assassin. In the latter years, he has cultivated a bit of extra weight, while maintaining his powerful physique through his work. Like many male besaliks, Raxil cultivates a curtain of white beard, covering his bulbous throat sack, as well as a moustache with long ends that frame his mouth. A long scar cuts across the left side of his face, crossing the left eye socket, where the eye has been replaced by a cybernetic prosthetic. He also lacks his lower right and left hands, after they were chopped off by
Darth Ophidia
when he challenged her leadership. They have since been replaced by heat resistant prosthetics. A brace supports his legs so he can walk, albeit less nimbly than he once did.
In the way of clothing, he wears heavy, layered robes with fitted sleeves and large, hide gloves that protect his hands and wrists. Raxil will also often wear a thick hide apron to protect himself from shocks and sparks. He keeps his lightsabre in a pocket inside his robes, hidden in the lining where it can be drawn at a moment's notice.
- Name: Raxil Dron, Darth Acier.
- Loyalties: Sith Empire, Sith Assassins.
- Wealth: Comfortable.
- Notable Possessions:
- Double-bladed lightsabre.
- Fully stocked lab for Sith alchemy.
- Fully stocked forge for weapons and armour.
- Fully stocked workshop for guns and electronics.
- Skills: Formerly a Sith Assassin, and Sith of some skill, Raxil retired from active duty to dedicate himself to the crafting and maintenance of weapons and armour. After delving into the mysteries of Alchemy, and the crafting of weapons and armour, Darth Acier found himself more powerful and influential than ever. Raxil has also been a part of designing the Assassin’s hideouts and strongholds.
As a former assassin, Darth Acier is quite skilled in stealth. - Personality: At first meeting, Darth Acier may come off as gruff and coarse. He does not talk much, and he never gets riled up. In time, Acier displays a lot of humour. He has a habit of making small pranks on those he knows can take it. When it comes down to making something, he is creative and driven, sometimes to the point of mania.
- Weapon of Choice: His greatest weapon is his ability to arm others. Second to that is his skill in stealth. If he must, he will use his double bladed lightsabre defensively while attaking with telekinesis.
- Combat Function: Once highly skilled in combat, Darth Acier’s age and many injuries have decreased his ability to fight. If pressed to combat, he will defend himself with his lightsabre in the soresu and shien styles, then attack with telekinesis. As an assassin, he will tend to open combat by hiding, then striking from the shadows if the moment is right. He is, however, not one to pursue undue combat and will call for backup rather than risk depriving the Sith of his skills at the forge.
- Master Crafter: Darth Acier’s primary skill is to create, whether it is armours, weapons, or buildings. This is the crux of his skillset. These skills extend into the physical creation, but also in part the alchemical imbuement of items.
- Assassin: Darth Acier is surprisingly adept at stealth due to his early training as an assassin.
- Crippled: Due to compounded injuries, Darth Acier’s body does not work as well as it once did. He walks with a limp and tires from long journeys.
- Passive Combatant: Due to his extensive focus on creation rather than combat, Acier is a very passive combatant. He fights primarily if his life is in danger, and is not the warrior who will push back and pursue opponents.
