Heir of Tenebrae
Darth Imperius
Heir of Tenebrae
Lord of Wrath
Master of the Gathering Darkness
"In veils of ash, where silence reigns,
A shadow stirs, unbound by chains.
The stars shall weep; their light will fade,
As oathbound blades in darkness wade.
Beneath the crypt where secrets sleep,
The heir shall rise from vows they keep.
A knight in black, with burning gaze,
To tread the path of shadowed blaze.
Where thrones collapse, and empires fall,
Their name shall echo—death to all.
A paladin, with fate's grim toll,
To wield the void, consume the soul.
No law shall bind, no light will save,
The galaxy bows to their grave.
In darkness forged, in blood made whole,
The heir ascends, the final goal."

Personality
Darth Imperius stands as a dark and enigmatic force, embodying a fusion of relentless ambition, martial brilliance, and a vision of galactic dominance. A masterful tactician and warrior, Imperius wields both blade and mind with ruthless precision, outmaneuvering enemies on the battlefield and in the shadows. Commanding an unmatched intellect and the patience to plan for centuries, Imperius thrives on manipulation, weaving intricate schemes that bend even the strongest wills to his purpose. His presence inspires awe and terror in equal measure, a towering figure revered as much for their raw power as their cold, calculating resolve.
Isolation defines Imperius true self, whose mistrust of others creates an aura of mystery and invulnerability. He prefers to act alone or through carefully selected agents, safeguarding his grand vision from meddling hands. Though he disdains weakness, he possesses a grim respect for strength and honor, valuing warriors who embrace the purity of conflict. This respect, however, never outweighs his unwavering pursuit of absolute power. Emotions and attachments are weapons to be wielded or discarded, for nothing must interfere with his greater purpose.
At the heart of his philosophy lies a belief in the cleansing power of war. Darth Imperius views the galaxy as a rotting structure, corrupted by complacency and weakness. Only through fire and blood can it be reforged into a realm worthy of greatness. He seeks to plunge the galaxy into perpetual conflict, orchestrating a crucible where the strong rise, the weak perish, and the strongest seize ultimate dominion. This unrelenting drive toward war is not borne of chaos but of purpose—Imperius envisions a galaxy ruled by order, forged by the might of those proven worthy.
Imperius claims the mantle of the Heir of Tenebrae, seeing himself as the continuation of his eternal legacy. He believes their cunning, ambition, and thirst for control embody the same unrelenting drive that defined the ancient Sith Emperor. To Imperius, he is not merely a successor but the ultimate realization of Vitiate's vision—a ruler destined to achieve what his predecessor could not, forging an empire not just eternal in time but unassailable in strength. In this identity, Imperius finds a sense of inevitability, casting himself as the harbinger of a new Sith order and the galaxy's ultimate reckoning.
Sith Philosophy
Darth Imperius holds a nuanced and deeply traditional view of Sith philosophy, seeing the Sith Code as the foundational truth of their existence. He believes in the core tenets of the Code - passion, strength, power, and freedom - but interprets them with a sense of discipline and purpose that sets him apart from many of his contemporaries. For him, the Sith Code is not just a path to personal power but a blueprint for the ultimate realization of the Sith's potential as a unifying force in the galaxy. He views the Code as sacred, a guiding principle that must be upheld above all else, and he often clashes with those who deviate from its teachings, whether they are too consumed by imperial ambitions, selfish desires, or even those who prioritize values like friendship and family over the strength and purity of the Sith Order.
Darth Imperius admires the concept of a unified Sith Empire, drawing inspiration from historical attempts to consolidate Sith power, such as the Reconstituted Sith Empire and the One Sith. He sees these movements as bold steps toward the Sith's ultimate destiny: to rule the galaxy not as fragmented warlords but as a cohesive and indomitable force. However, he believes that past attempts fell short because they either diluted the Sith's core values or became too focused on imperial bureaucracy, losing sight of the Code's emphasis on individual strength and the transformative power of the dark side. For Darth Imperius, a true Sith Empire must be built on the foundation of the Sith Code, with every Sith striving to embody its principles while working toward a collective vision of dominance.
While he respects the ambition behind these unified Sith movements, Darth Imperius is critical of their compromises. He views the Reconstituted Sith Empire as too imperialistic, sacrificing the Sith's individuality and passion for the sake of order and control. Similarly, he sees the One Sith as flawed in their suppression of personal ambition, which he believes is essential to the Sith's strength. For him, a unified Sith Empire must strike a balance - harnessing the collective power of the Sith while still allowing individual Sith to rise through their own merit and passion. He envisions an empire where the strong rule, but their strength is measured not just by their ability to dominate others but by their commitment to the Sith Code and the greater glory of the Sith Order.
Darth Imperius is particularly disdainful of Sith who prioritize values like friendship, family, or loyalty to individuals over the strength and unity of the Sith Order. He sees such attachments as weaknesses that dilute the purity of the Sith's purpose. In his view, the Sith must be free from the chains of emotional bonds that could compromise their judgment or loyalty to the Order. He believes that the dark side thrives on passion, but that passion must be directed toward the pursuit of power and the advancement of the Sith's collective goals, not squandered on personal relationships. This stance often puts him at odds with more progressive or pragmatic Sith who see value in alliances or emotional connections, but Darth Imperius remains unwavering in his belief that the Sith Code must come first.
In summary, Darth Imperius is a traditionalist at heart, holding the Sith Code as the central value of his philosophy. He envisions a unified Sith Empire that embodies the Code's principles, where strength, passion, and power are harnessed to create a dominant and enduring order. While he admires past attempts at unification, he believes they failed because they strayed too far from the Code's teachings. He clashes with those who prioritize imperial ambitions, selfish goals, or personal attachments, seeing them as threats to the Sith's purity and strength. For Darth Imperius, the Sith must remain true to their Code, for it is the source of their power and the key to their ultimate triumph.
