HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Octarchy Covenant was originally founded during the Cold War between the Sith Empire and the Republic as the Octarchy Council. A gathering of eight Sith Lords that aided the Empire by promoting peace and cooperation within the Empire. They did not draw attention to themselves, content to operate from the shadows, whether people thanked them for their deeds or not. They always maintained a list of candidates to assume seats on the council as they emptied, but adamantly remained with only Eight Lords. The Octarchy began to rise to prominence after the efforts of one Lord Verros during the Revanite Crisis, who was soon promoted to Darth and granted a seat on the Council.
Under the newly appointed Darth Voph's guidance, the Octarchy Navy became the foremost defense group, rivaling even Darth Marr's personal fleet. During the Zakuul Invasion, the Octarchy was the first to ignore nations, and work alongside both Sith and Republic forces to defend the galaxy, though the fleet was destroyed in its entirety over Commenor. This left Voph as the only surviving member, who proceeded to wage a Guerrilla war against the Zakuul invaders until the war's conclusion some five years later.
After the war, Voph rebuild the Octarchy, re-branding them to the Octarchy Covenant. The Covenant grew to an impressive fleet, operating galaxy wide as a rapid response defense force that would ensure a second Zakuul War could never happen. For if it did, the galaxy might not survive. After Voph's death in 3630 BBY, the Octarchy waned and nearly collapsed. Though it persisted through the years, if only as a single person working to do good in the galaxy. Members of the Covenant were present for every major battle in galactic history in some capacity, seeking the peace and prosperity of all, and the overthrow of tyranny and oppression.
In 852 ABY, Voph was returned to the land of the living, and after some years acclimating to the Galaxy, he began to gather the Covenant once more. Though it never grew to the same power it had under his command previously, the Octarchy were still staunch defenders of peace and freedom across the galaxy. Today, the Octarchy exist as a mere team of Knights Obsidian, working with the Confederacy to pursue the same goals they always have: The end of all wars, and to usher in an era of freedom and prosperity for all.
