BIOGRAPHY:
Hion was essentially exiled from his homeworld of Giju after losing a fortune in a gambling contest. The money came from his family's trade empire and they could not accept his continued bad habit, as it happened more than once. This time was the last straw. Leaving his family behind, Hion wandered the galaxy adventuring until he joined up with a group of Herglics intent on forming a mercenary squad. Hion, rather unfortunately given his kind's predispositions, was a great fighter. He revelled in combat and testing of strength, though he claims he does enjoy killing or the actual serious wounding of another person. A few bruises are minor things to him.
The herglic mercenaries soon grew to have a great repertoire as powerful fighters. Their awesome physical strength made them like giants on the battlefield, dominating any who stood before them. The little band grew into a much large one and Hion soon found himself leading them. He only took job offers to take down truly evil opponents. He would not have the blood of good beings on his hands. Even with this self-imposed code, Hion found himself haunted by his own power and afraid to use it to his full capacity lest he injure a fellow comrade of smaller stature accidentally.
The Herglic Battalion was recruited by Lysander of Suarbi to help quell the pirates in the region. Hion spent three years campaigning with the man and grew close friends with him. They both shared a keen sense of adventure. During the off days of the war, Hion managed to build up a small mercantile business as a subsidiary of the Kyros Federation.
After the pirate war of Suarbi was over, he lost control of the Herglic Battalion in a game of chance. Hion hated the work of actually managing a trade business, so he left it to a trusted lieutenant. Hion had not known he was Force Sensitive until Lysander remarked on his incredible luck at dice. Whenever Hion played at that game, he always won. Lysander, a passionate scholar and philosopher, remarked upon Hion's ability and suggested it might be that the Herglic was Force sensitive. Hion, sensing adventure, agreed to accompany Lysander to the Jedi Temple on Corsuscant, where he was found to be Force sensitive, but barely enough to train.
After becoming a Jedi Knight, Hion came into contact with the Soulsaber on Coruscant. The vile blade spurred his fall to the Dark Side. He became a Sith and a warrior of the Empire during its twilight. He perished on Coruscant after attempting to rejoin the Republic. The Jedi refused to allow a Dark Sider to roam free and thus gunned him down.
He was resurrected by the Dark Lord of the One Sith, who used transfer essence to rip his spirit from the Netherworld and put it into the body of a Herglic. In exchange, the former occupant of the body was cast into the fires of the Nether, almost inevitably leading to the insanity of that spirit.
Orcus now serves the One Sith as a fanatical subject willing to do whatever it takes to achieve the unity of the galaxy.
