Darth Hauntruss
Wraith of the Sith
With the Netherworld opening space in the Core Worlds and the map having some free space finally, time to have some fun with a plot I wanted to do for a while. For those interested here are some background info.
Introduction
Within the One Sith Empire’s Imperial machine, there are two instruments of the Imperial Reform Orders to their reformation of worlds they conquer or subjugate. One is the Imperial Mission, designed by [member="Darth Vornskr"] to be a Sith cultural and religious mission designed to spread the Sith Creed and Imperial Doctrine to other worlds by way of diplomatic, socio-economic and political reform to mold the populace into bright and willing members of the Empire.
However, what if you the populace is unwilling to reform, suppose they are too staunchly devout. What if worse, the world is home to Jedi Enclave that acts as a bastion to these ideals? Then if the house cannot be modified it must be torn down and its foundations removed. In this case the second of the two Imperial Reform Orders is employed- The Imperial Inquisition.
The Imperial Inquisition is the more brutal sister order to the Imperial Mission. Their mandate is to pledge an unending crusade in the name of the Dark Lord their Emperor. Imperial Inquisitors Stormtrooper Legions are taught to abhor the Jedi, the Light and the Enemies of the Emperor. Indoctrinate into the Inquisition these legions live not on a base world but on an Inquisition Fleet. This is done so the Inquisition can be highly mobile and be despatched to any corner of the galaxy or Sith space to purge what must be cleansed.
The Imperial Inquisition is a last resort at all times. It is not designed for continuous heavy military campaigns. It is a special task force to be unleashed when most needed. For once unleashed its devastation is total.
Doctrine and Organization
The Imperial Inquisition conducts its operations in a series multi-world campaigns. Each campaign is given the title of Dark Crusade. The current campaign soon to be unleashed is the Adasean Dark Crusades- named after the First Dark Lord of the Sith- King Adas.
The Imperial Inquisition is led by 4 High Inquisition Marshals, this is cycled out except for Darth Hauntruss who remains as Inquisition Warmaster and commander of the Inquisition Fleets. The battle doctrine of the Imperial Inquisition is shock an awe planetary destruction. Worlds condemned to purges are placed in either two protocols of cleansing- Fire Purification or Storm Purification. Fire Purification subjects a planet to a total fleet planetary bombardment, once all traces of infrastructure are wiped clean the Stormtrooper legions are dropped with invasion vehicles from one of the many floating fortress cruisers. Fire Purification is often left to Jedi Enclave worlds. Storm Purification is more of a standard siege tactic of the Imperial Inquisition- this is for when the infrastructure or general outline of world is requested to be kept intact.

SITH DARK CRUSADES
Rise of the Imperial Inquisition
INTRODUCTION POST
Darth Hauntruss said:With the Netherworld Rapture finally breaking the Republics giant homogeneous hold on the Core Worlds the Sith are finally in position to take FULL advantage. I, Darth Isolda and Darth Vornskr are preparing for a purge unlike anything ever seen on this site. This plan only works before the other factions eat up space with zerg rushed dominions. The plan is to attack, raid and cleanse every Jedi touched world in the Core. IC'ly it is to remove every trace of Republic/Jedi cultural affiliation to re-enforce the Sith permeation across these worlds. OOCLy, we raid their technical, industrial and lore archives for anything we can find and then take it back to Coruscant. With this the Jedi will have no safe havens anywhere in the Core. Now this doesn't mean decimating entire populations . No, with some we can use the Imperial Mission (Darth Vornskr), re-educate, liberate and rebuild. But for Jedi Enclave worlds ONLY THE FIRES OF PURIFICATION WILL CLEANSE THAT WORLD. Hauntruss will name this campaign the Adasean Black Crusades in honor and dedication to the FIRST King of the Sith- Adas. This campaign will span several threads on several worlds. (not dominion threads btw). I am hoping that we could collect a special fleet and set of stormtrooper legions. The fleet will be the permanent space force for moving the Crusades. And will be known as the Imperial Hammer. While my Death Dragoons, and Vornskr's Black Blades and Imperial Fist will be the military staff to command the Legions. Naturally Apprentices, Knights and other Lords are welcome to join.
