- Affiliation: Dread Ascendancy (primary), Warlords of the Sith (secondary)
- Accessibility: The Dread Citadel is nearly inaccessible to individuals not a part of the Warlords of the Sith. The structure floats in "The Dead Ring", the massive debris field that surrounds the ruined world of Sepulcher, which itself is enshrouded in the dangerous nebula known as Typhojem's Storm.
- Description: The Citadel is a large castle built after the original colonization of the planet after the Great Hyperspace War. The castle sits upon pieces of ruined rocked that were ejected from the planet following its cataclysm. Some of the structure was refurbished or entirely reconstructed by disciples of the Dread Ascendancy in order to return it to its former glory, and to seal the structure against the vacuum of space.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The castle that came to be known as The Dread Citadel was built by the Sith exiles who colonized the world following their defeat in the Great Hyperspace War. It's original purpose is thought to be similar to the one it holds today, as a fortress, a palace, and a place where Sith Sorcerers could practice their art. It is believed that the powerful dark side magic performed in its halls is part of the reason why the building was able to survive the sundering of the planet, though the castle's occupants did not last for long following the destruction of their world. After the last remaining Sith in the castle died, it fell into ruin.
The Disciples of Kascalion Giedfield, collectively known as the Dread Ascendancy, claimed the castle shortly after their alliance with the Keepers of the Sith Code. Darth Vinaze, a former Keeper, had been to Sepulcher previously and was aware of the ruins. Wishing to share the immense dark energy of Sepulcher with Kascalion, Vinaze led a group of acolytes to inhabit the ruins. The last couple of years have been spent rebuilding the crumbling foundations and what's left of the walls.
