End of the Year post

So, yeah, today marks the end of my first year here on Blogspot. Whoopee.

Alright, bad news first: I won't be finishing posing Transformers Evolution on here, at least not for a while. I simply don't find it as good as my other stories (despite me having written it the same time as Star Wars Destiny). But fear not, I will one day continue it, and I will start off right where I left it.

Good news: Tomorrow, I will begin typing out the first three volumes of a new Star Wars story I've started: Star Wars Legacy (not to be confused with the comic series of the same name. Though bear in mind it's simply a temporary title). It will take place in the same 'Alternate Post-ROTJ Universe' as Destiny, taking place nine years after The End of All Days.

Well, that's that. Happy New Years' Eve, everyone.

The Transformers: Evolutions: Dark Designs, Chapter Three

CHAPTER THREE: THE ULTRACONS

"Well, this is certainly a surprise," Megatron muttered as he approached the five Transformers that comprised the Ultracons. 

"Indeed," said the group's leader Barricade, a horned Decepticon colored in black and gold. "Commander Shockwave simply did not see the...need to inform you."

"Ah, I see," Megatron replied. "Luckily, I actually have use for you..."

"Anything, Lord Megatron!" exclaimed the large, towering Decepticon known as Lugnut. "Anything for the glorious Decepticon cause!"

"Shut it, Lugnut," Barricade snapped. He turned back to Megatron. "What is it you require from us, my lord?"

Megatron brought out a hologram projector and activated it, revealing the image of an oil refinery. "There is a large supply of Energon at this refinery. However, we need Decepticons with more...ground-based alt modes, since a majority of my forces are fliers."

"No problem there," said a tall red Decepticon called Knock Out. "I have already uploaded a few ground vehicles into my databanks."

He projected various holographic images of Earthen vehicles, including automobiles, tanks, and cruisers. Barricade scanned a black police car and his body adapted as such. Lugnut, on the other hand, decided to chose an aerial form, scanning a heavy bomber aircraft. 

Meanwhile, a small, lanky Transformer known as Sideways scanned a violet motorcycle with yellow stripes, and a stout, bulky Decepticon who went by the name of Demolishor chose an anti-aircraft missile tank. Finally, Knock Out scanned a small, red sports automobile. 

Once the five Ultracons had adapted to their Earth forms, Megatron spoke again. "Very good. Soundwave then shall accompany you."

As if on cue, the stoic blue Decepticon converted into his tape deck form and landed into Barricade's hand.

"Now go," Megatron ordered as the Ultracons transformed into their vehicle modes. "Retrieve the Energon!"

*  *  *

"Prime!" the Autobot lieutenant Jazz called. "You've gotta' see this!"

Optimus Prime, along with Prowl and the veteran Ironhide, ran up to Jazz, who sat at Teletraan One's monitor. On the screen, they could see moving red dots heading towards an oil refinery.

"Leakin' lubricants!" Ironhide exclaimed. "I thought those 'Cons had given up!"

"I know Megatron," Optimus muttered. "He hardly ever gives up easily. Jazz?"

"Yeah, Prime?" 

"Take Ironhide, Sideswipe, and Mirage to the oil refinery with you, and see what you can do to stop the Decepticons."

"No problem, Big Bot," Jazz replied as he shifted into his Prosche 997 car mode. "C'mon, old iron. Let's roll."

Grumbling something about 'turbo-revving punks', Ironhide transformed into a red SUV and followed Jazz.

*  *  *

"I see no human resistance, Barricade," said Sideways as he drove into the oil refinery. "Guess we better start scouring."

Behind him drove in Barricade, Knock Out, and Demolishor, all of them transforming into their robot modes, along with Soundwave.

"So," Barricade muttered, turning to Knock Out. "Where do we start?"

Dropping down to his knees, Knock Out scanned the area with an arm-mounted scanner device. "I am picking up a lot of Energon below our very feet. Demolishor, did you bring the Energon transfers?"

The brutish Decepticon nodded, holding out multiple pipes that were often used to transfer Energon into cubes.

"Soundwave, deploy the Energon cubes," Barricade ordered the blue Decepticon. The emotionless communications officer nodded and soon, five empty cubes came from out of his chest. Just as the six Decepticons were about to work, five automobiles drove into the refinery behind them.

Sideways was the first to notice this and he let out a quiet chuckle. "Looks like we have company."

One by one the vehicles transformed and five Autobots soon stood ready to take on the Decepticons.

"Alright, Decepti-creeps," the red Autobot known as Ironhide growled, deploying his arm cannons. "Yer' days are numbered!"

"I wouldn't count on that," Demolishor muttered as he rotated his shoulder cannons and fired. The Autobots evaded the attacks and fired their own weapons. The Ultracons split up and tackled each Autobot, with Barricade taking on Jazz, Demolishor brawling with Ironhide, Sideways with Sideswipe, and Knock Out and Soundwave with Mirage.

*  *  *

Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the Autobot combatants, Lugnut transformed into his aerial mode and flew overhead, trying to decide on the best attack. Before he could think of one however, an object zoomed past him, sending the bomber jet Decepticon spinning out of control.

After straightening himself out, Lugnut converted back into his robot mode and searched angrily for what had distracted him. Finally, he caught sight of a white and red jet with modified thrusters and weapons, the latter which were firing. Noticing the Autobot insignias on the jet's wings, Lugnut chuckled to himself as he readied his unique arm weapon, which his fellow Utracons often dubbed the 'POKE' (for Punch of Kill Everything).

Just as he was about to ram his arm into the Autobot jet, the latter transformed and slammed his fist into the Decepticon's face. The titan roared in rage as the Autobot fired a pair of shoulder cannons into Lugnut's chest. Temporarily blind, Lugnut lost control of his flight capabilities and plummeted towards the ground below.

*  *  *

"Jumping gyros!" Autobot Sideswipe exclaimed, noticing that the falling Decepticon was headed right for where he and the others stood. "Let's split!"

Autobot and Decepticon alike moved for cover as the robot titan crashed to the ground, shaking the earth and leaving a crater-sized hole in the cement. The mysterious winged Autobot who had injured Lugnut slowly landed next to his defeated body, aiming his arm-mounted weapons at the cowering Ultracons.

"Who's next?" the newcomer asked. The Ultracons' response was to transform into their vehicle modes and drive off, fleeing from the oil refinery. Once they were gone, the Autobot turned to Sideswipe and the others and smiled.

"Need help taking this guy back to base?"

"Hang on!" Ironhide said, eying the newcomer skeptically. "Who are you? I don't remember seein' your face back on Cybertron?"

The winged Autobot chuckled. "Well, it has been a while, old timer. Name's Jetfire, Air Commander of the Autobot Sky Force."

*  *  *

"Lord Megatron, Soundwave and the Ultracons have returned," the Decepticon warrior known as Skywarp said, standing at the base's entrance.

Megatron stepped out of the base to see the Ultracons drive up, noticeably without Energon cubes...and Lugnut. 

The moment the five Decepticons had transformed into their robot modes, Megatron's scarlet eyes flared with fury. "Where is Lugnut? Where are the Energon cubes?"

Barricade glanced around nervously, as if searching for help. "Well...you see, my lord, the Autobots came and-"

"I thought your specialization was destroying Autobots easily," Megatron growled.

Barricade shifted his feet. "Yes, my lord. But, you see, this Autobot flier came and...he defeated Lugnut. We didn't stand a chance!"

"Wait," said Starscream, who had just walked up beside Megatron. "An Autobot flier, you say? Quite a rarity...was he white and red?"

"Yes," Barricade replied, his optics narrowing. "Why?"

"Yes, Starscream," Megatron muttered, turning to face the Air Commander. "Do you know this Autobot?"

"A little too well," Starscream murmured. "His name is Jetfire, though, back on Cybertron, he went by the name Skyfire."

"And how do you know him?"

Starscream smirked. "For the most part, he is my brother."

The Transformers: Evolutions: Dark Designs, Chapter Two

CHAPTER TWO: IN THE WRONG HANDS

For the first time in forever, the streets of Iacon were silent. 

Civilians hid in their home, officers patrolled the streets...it was enough to make Red Alert even more paranoid than he usually was.

Quite ironic, he thought, considering I'm supposed to be Director of Security.

Suddenly, his communicator buzzed, making Red Alert jump slightly, and the voice of Autobot commander Ultra Magnus spoke through. "Red Alert, I need you back at Autobot Headquarters immediately."

"Sure thing, sir," Red Alert replied as he transformed into his Cybertronic vehicle form. He quietly added to himself, "Anywhere's better than here..."

As he drove off, the Director of Security failed to notice an observant watcher standing nearby...

*  *  *

Ultra Magnus stood on Autobot Headquarter's observation deck, gazing at the once magnificent city of Iacon. Although the reconstruction of it after the Ark's takeoff had gone well, it still did not capture the beauty Iacon had before the Decepticons' invasion at the start of the Great War.

Lost in his thoughts, he failed to notice the door opening behind him to allow Red Alert inside. "You wanted to see me, sir?" the security director asked.

Magnus turned to face him. "Indeed. I am calling a meeting with all heads of divisions in my office. But first, I need you to make sure everything in this base is secure and that there are no spy cameras or anything here."

Red Alert tilted his head in slight confusion. "Why?"

Magnus turned back grimly at the view of Iacon. "Because if any recording of the meeting fell into the wrong hands...it would mean all of our efforts were pointless."

*  *  *

Soon, all the heads of divisions had gathered at Ultra Magnus' office. Standing in a semi-circle were Red Alert, director of the Security Division; Perceptor, minister of the Science Division; First Aid, chief of the Medical Division; Highbrow, head of Cybertron Intelligence; and finally Ultra Magnus himself, head of Defense and deputy leader of the Autobots.

Once everyone had settled in, Magnus was the first to speak. "I am sure you have all heard of Project Omega, which the Ministry of Science has been working on. Well, Perceptor here has told me that we've faced an unfortunate setback."

The red and light blue Autobot known as Perceptor stepped forward to speak. "In order to activate Project Omega, we require the Omega Key. Unfortunately, it was lost after the death of Sentinel Prime."

"Any idea where it is now?" asked the azure and grey colored Highbrow.

"We do have one theory," Perceptor replied. After pausing for effect, he said, "The Decepticons may have it."

All of the councilors except Magnus stared at him in astonishment. 

"But how?" First Aid asked. "Sentinel Prime did not carry the Omega Key with him when he fought Megatron...did he?"

"No, he did not," Perceptor said. "But it was being kept by the sage Alpha Trion..."

"And his office was attacked by Decepticon forces around that time," Highbrow finished for him. He held his chin in his hand. "Yes, it is likely they stole it then."

"So how do we get it back?" Red Alert asked. "It would be suicidal if we tried to sneak into Decepticon territory."

Ultra Magnus smirked. "Maybe for you. But not for an elite team of Autobots I have handpicked myself."

The door to Magnus' office opened and seven Autobots walked in, led by a burly Transformer colored in violet and orange.

"Allow me to present the Wreckers," Magnus announced. "They will get the job done."

*  *  *

The spy had seen and heard enough. Converting into his vehicle form, he traveled from the city of Iacon towards the dark realm known as Kaon, capital of the Decepticon Empire. It was there, long ago, that Megatron founded the Decepticons and started the civil war that now plagued Cybertron, beginning with the death of Sentinel Prime, last of the original Seven Primes.

As his thoughts drifted off, the spy failed to notice the looming figure that awaited him at Kaon's entrance. 

"Stop." The spy came to a halt and transformed into his robot mode.

"Er, my apologies, sir," the spy said to the large Decepticon. "I have managed to record the meeting, just as you ordered."

"Very good," the Decepticon replied. "You do know Shockwave does not appreciate failures. Hand over the chip."

The spy reached behind his head and pulled out a tiny chip that held all that he had recorded of the meeting. He handed it to the Decepticon.

"Good work," the superior officer said. "Wait here until I return. If this info is valid, I will give you your next task. If it is not..."

The Decepticon leaned forward menacingly, glowering at the spy. "You will be the Pit's next guest."

The spy nodded, doing his best not to appear frightened. "Understood," he said as the Decepticon took off.

*  *  *

"...Allow me to present the Wreckers. They will get the job done."

The recording finished. Shockwave's single, yellow optic stared stoically at the screen of his monitor. When the Decepticon who gave it to him shifted, he snapped back to reality. 

"Onslaught, tell your spy to keep an eye on these 'Wreckers,'" Shockwave said. "And if they come anywhere within eight feet of Kaon..."

Onslaught tilted his head. "Eliminate them?"

"More than that. Tear them apart."

*  *  *

"The Wreckers are on their way," Red Alert informed Ultra Magnus. "This does seem like a dangerous mission, heading into Decepticon territory..."

"Danger's part of the job," Magnus muttered. "The only thing I'm worried about is if they can get back or not."

Red Alert nodded in agreement. "By the way, one of Highbrow's agents recently told me that Alpha Trion was actually away when the 'Cons attacked his office."

"Yes, I was aware of that," Magnus replied. "Why?"

"Well, where is he?"

The Autobot commander thought for a moment, staring once again out at the view of Iacon. Finally, he said, "I have no idea, Red Alert. The last time I saw him, he spoke something about the Matrix..."

"You mean the Matrix of Leadership?" Red Alert scoffed. "That's just an old myth! Even a old 'bot like him wouldn't believe it. Wonder what got into him."

Magnus shrugged. "One can only imagine, Red Alert. One can only imagine...."

The Transformers: Evolutions: Dark Designs, Prologue and Chapter One

Last year, in 2011, I started a Transformers fan-fiction series called The Transformers: Evolution. However, I either lost interest in it or didn't like where the plot was going. However, I did finish the first volume, which is titled Dark Designs. So, without further ado...

PROLOGUE

[from the logs of Alpha Trion]

Cybertron. The gleaming jewel of the Alpha Centauri system. For millions of years, our race had been at peace, with a golden age reigning supreme.

Then came the Decepticons, an evil faction led by the tyrant Megatron. They invaded our greatest cities. Kings were dethroned, soldiers fell. Our darkest hour had come.

But suddenly, in the light at the end of the tunnel, a hero rose. His name was Optimus Prime.

In order to save our dying world, Optimus Prime gathered a group of Autobots and took the spaceship designated the Ark, in search of more Energon. However, Megatron discovered this and took his flagship, the Nemesis, to pursue them. Both ships eventually crash-landed on the planet Earth, where, four million years later, Optimus Prime and the Autobots would ally with the native humans to defeat the evil forces of the Decepticons.

Meanwhile, on Cybertron, we had found enough Energon to continue our race, though the Decepticons still stand in our way. And now here we are, in Earth's twenty first century, still waging our war to find peace.

Only fate will decide if we will succeed.

CHAPTER ONE: NO ACTIVITY

Blue optics intently watched the monitor of Teletraan One, the Ark's central computer. Decepticons had not been sighted in six months, which was actually quite unusual. Normally, the 'Cons would attack a site every other two to three days, as if calling for attention. Here it had been months, and Prowl was growing suspicious. 

They must be up to something, he though. It just isn't like them to just...stop.

Activating his communicator, Prowl contacted with his leader. "Optimus, this is Prowl. Are you busy?"

"Not at all, Prowl," the Autobot commander replied. "I'm in room C-Ten with Wheeljack. Why?"

"I need to speak with you. I'll be right there." With that, Prowl ended the connection and made his room through the base.

*  *  *

"...So I'm still trying to work out the kinks of this new RX-7 model rocket launcher I made," the chief Autobot engineer Wheeljack was saying to Optimus Prime as Prowl opened the door to the room. "There's a loose screw in it I think, but-"

"Take your time, Wheeljack," Optimus said. "I have to speak with Prowl."

As soon as the engineer had left, Prowl entered the room. Optimus turned to face him. "What is it, lieutenant?"

"Well, I've noticed that the Decepticons haven't attacked in nearly six months. I'm starting to think they're up to something."

Optimus nodded slowly. "I have been thinking the same thing recently. Megatron and his followers have been known to be scheming and clever. I can only imagine what they might be planning."

"Especially after the Devastator incident," Prowl muttered, recalling the recent battle with the Decepticons' combiner experiment. 

"Yes," Optimus replied, apparently recalling the same thing. "Especially."

*  *  *

Scarlet optics stared menacingly into the darkness before their bearer. Months ago, after having stolen enough Energon, Megatron had unleashed the Constructicons' combined form Devastator, the first 'gestalt' known to have been created. Unfortunately, as Megatron should have foreseen, the Autobots arrived and, eventually, defeated Devastator.

It was back to the drawing pad again...as usual.

Over the months, Starscream, Air Commander of the Decepticons, had heard Megatron speak with the Constructicons' leader Scrapper. Apparently, the two had come up with an idea; to summon more Constructicons from Cybertron so they could combine into a larger Devastator. To Starscream, this was failure just waiting to happen.

From what he had learned during his brief stint as a scientist, he could tell the combination of more than six Transformers would result in too much power and probably be suicidal. 

Once again, Starscream thought, another misstep made by our so-called 'supreme' leader.

Walking down the hall of the Nemesis, the Decepticon Air Commander could hear voices coming from the command room, which was once the Nemesis' bridge until it crashed landed onto Earth nose-first into the ground. As he got closer, the voices grew clearer.

"Yes, Lord Megatron," said one voice, which sounded like it was coming from a computer monitor. "Project X is going well. If the Autobots do not find out about it and intervene, it will be ready by the end of the deca-cycle."

"Very good, Shockwave," Starscream heard Megatron reply. "Report back to me when you make any progress."

Starscream entered the room just as Shockwave's visage vanished from the screen. Noticing the Air Commander, Megatron turned to face him, his crimson eyes glowing from his metal grey faceplate. 

"What is it, Starscream?" the Decepticon ruler said in a slightly raspy voice.

Starscream gave a mock bow, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he said, "My lord, I was just wondering about your plans with Scrapper."

"What about them?" Megatron asked, glowering at the same time.

"Well, I was just thinking that it would be..." Starscream though frantically for a word that wouldn't anger his leader. "...That it would be naive to go through with the plan."

Megatron simply glared. After a moment of silence, Starscream nervously continued. 

"I mean, all of that Energon being used in a seven-or-more part Devastator would be...dangerous."

Silence still. The Seeker went on. "N-not that I...dislike seeing a giant crush the Autobots, it's just that-"

Megatron held up a metal hand, silencing Starscream. "Enough," he said. "I've made my choice. I've already ordered Shockwave to send six extra Constructicons-"

"Six?!" Starscream exclaimed. "That's...that's twelve Constructicons united!"

"Congratulations, Starscream," Megatron said dryly. "You have learned your math."

Before the Seeker could retort, the doors opened behind him, allowing an azure-colored Decepticon. with a scarlet visor and a featureless faceplate concealing his mouth, to walk in.

"Lord Megatron," Soundwave said in a monotonic voice. "Reinforcements have arrived."

"Ah, the extra Constructicons, I presume?" Megatron said.

"Negative," Soundwave replied. "The reinforcements have identified themselves as...Ultracons."

*  *  *

Every day, I wait. Every day, I watch.

And every day, I tend to stop and think. Will my plan succeed? Will it be worth waiting nearly four thousand years to execute a plan that could be doomed to failure? 

And every day, I tell myself, Yes, it is defiantly worth it.

Of course, sometimes I can not tell if it's me or someone else talking....

My name is Darth Vorath. And every day, I wait and watch.

*  *  *

My plan is rather...complex. Even I find it complicated at times, and often have to go over it again. Thus, I can not put the details of my plan into mere words.

But in order for the plan to succeed, I need to be alive. And since I do not wish to spend my valuable time searching for ways to be immortal, I have decided to use an alternative; hibernation.

A few years after I became Dark Lord of the Sith (which was nearly three centuries before the Treaty of Coruscant), I formed a Sith Council comprised of rogue warlords left over from Darth Revan's empire, as well as a few Dark Jedi I came across. I then entrusted one of them, whom I trusted the most, to watch over my hibernating body.  I would then enter hibernation at least every ten years and exit every twenty, thus preserving my life and allowing me to record history, so I can integrate events into my plan. Of course, I still end up looking like an old relic, but the dark side continues to hold me together.

I'm sure you're wondering, how is history involved with my plan? It is actually quite relatively simple.

Every century, perhaps every decade, I witness the rise and fall of various Dark Lords of the Sith, the interventions of the Jedi, and the struggle of the Republic.

For two centuries after the Sith Triumvirate's collapse, the galaxy was at relative peace, until the reestablished Sith Empire attacked, led by the Emperor Vitiate, a Sith Lord who survived the Old Sith Empire's fall two thousand years previously. 

I found Vitiate's schemes and ideals...interesting, to say the least. His perspective was rather unique, as was his plan to eradicate pretty much the entire galaxy. It reminded me a lot of Darth Nihilus' craving for power, consuming planets to satisfy his hunger. Vitiate, of course, took this to...larger extremes.

I eventually grew tired of watching the Sith Emperor execute his schemes, knowing that they would soon be the end of him. After Vitiate's eventual fall, I bore witness to the short reign of Darth Desolous, a fallen Jedi Master who was expelled for delving into Sith teachings. Although the conflict that resulted was rather devastating to the Jedi Order, I hardly found it interesting.

A thousand years later, another conflict would break out, once again caused by a fallen Jedi; Phanius, an Umbaran Jedi Master, who took on the name Darth Ruin when he became Dark Lord of the Sith. Most like Vitiate, Darth Ruin had a rather unique philosophy. Although it is natural for Sith to have large egos, Ruin took his to the extreme. He saw himself as the avatar of the Universe and Life itself. 

Needless to say, this view did not make Ruin very popular among his followers for very long.

After Ruin was overthrown and succeeded by one of his apprentices, the New Sith Empire was fully established and the New Sith Wars began. This era gave birth to many Sith Lords with vast egos and large ambitions, such as Lords Odion and Daiman, the latter who had a similar philosophy to Ruin's. I implemented these Sith's goals into my plan, preparing myself in case they succeeded and took over the galaxy.

The wars eventually ended with the demise of Lord Kaan and his Brotherhood of Darkness at the hands of Darth Bane, who has since created a new, secret Sith Order.

As always, I am currently watching Bane and his apprentice conceive plots for their Grand Plan, masking my presence so they do not notice me. And, as always, I will use them for my own plan...

FIN

Note: yes, I am aware Vorath's 'hibernation' plan is similar to Darth Krayt's. In a possible sequel to Star Wars: Destiny, that will be explained.

ORDER OF DAI BENDU

Dai Bendu (Human male); an person who lived long before the founding of the Galactic Republic, Dai Bendu was the founder of the Order of Dai Bendu, an ancient organization that studied the Force and preceded the Je'daii Order and later on the Jedi Order. After his death, Bendu became one with the Force and entered the Netherworld of the Force. He was later summoned to the world of Praetus, a part of the Netherworld, to lead the new Order of Dai Bednu against the army of the Sith god Ra-Sal. After the Staff of Valtheran was destroyed by Luke Skywalker, Ra-Sal and his army were vanquished and peaces was restored to Praetus.

Cala Brin/Ashla (Human female); possibly a member of the Je'daii Order, Cala Brin was one of the four founders of the Jedi Order, along with Ters Sendon, Garon Jard, and Rajivari. In the realm of Praetus, Brin renamed herself Ashla, for she represented the light side of the Force that the Jedi followed. 

Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and Anakin Skywalker (Jedi spirits); these four Force ghosts served as guides for Luke Skywalker when he arrived in Praetus. Anakin also accompanied Luke on a mission to Ra-Sal's fortress, which failed.

Aron Jarsan/Revan (Human male); an ancient Jedi Knight and former Sith Lord, Aron Jarsan, father of Toah Jarsan, appeared to his son when he entered Praetus, and served as a guide for him while in the Netherworld. 

OTHERS

Gorga Desilijic Aarapo (masculine Hutt from Tatooine); the nephew of Jabba Desilijic Tiure, Gorga the Hutt was a member of the Hutt Grand Council during the Clone Wars. Around 21 BBY, Gorga and the other councilors hired the bounty hunter Cad Bane to hunt for Gorga's grandfather, Ziro the Hutt. Years later, after Jabba's death, Gorga the Hutt took over his uncle's criminal empire on Tatooine. He also hired the Snatchers to serve as 'bodyguards', for he did not believe that Gamorrean guards would be enough. When Luke Skywalker ended up on Tatooine, Gorga threw him into his palace's arena pit and was going to unleash a large creature similar to a rancor, only to find out that Animus had replaced it. After a long fight, Luke used Animus to flee from the palace. During his escape, Gorga was crushed by Animus' dragon form.

Skwid-Ward (Quarren male); around 11 ABY, Skwid-Ward served as Gorga the Hutt's majordomo after he took over Jabba the Hutt's criminal empire. During Luke Skywalker's escape from Gorga's palace, Skwid-Ward was killed by Animus' large dragon form. 

Ethril (Human clone from Byss); created around 4 ABY, Ethril was a clone of Emperor Palpatine created by Atha Prime, who planned on making him ruler of the Dark Empire. However, the clone went rogue and left Byss, traveling to its neighbor world Tython, where he took on the alias Ethril. In 6 ABY, when Luke Skywalker and Han Solo traveled to Tython in search of an ancient Jedi Temple, Ethril attacked them. Although he defeated Skywalker, the mad clone was shot in the back by Han Solo, killing him.

Narus (Human male from Naboo); the first King of Naboo in four decades, Narus succeeded Nalida I as monarch of Naboo around 7 ABY. In 10 ABY, Senator Leia Organa Solo and her family traveled to Naboo in search of Jedi in hiding, and spoke with Narus, who did not have the answers they were looking for. Years later, after he had filled his term, Narus mysteriously vanished. Although his whereabouts were never revealed, it was eventually presumed that he was killed by the Sith.

Nalida II (Human female from Naboo); the daughter of Queen Nalida I, Nalida II became monarch of Naboo sometime shortly before the Imperial Sith War. Sometime during the war, Darth Ravage, under the alias of the Jedi Master Zavar Rarnok, sowed distrust among the Naboo and Nalida began to distrust the Jedi. After an argument with Supreme Commander Garm Bel Iblis, Nalida had Naboo secede from the New Republic. It is unknown if they rejoined after the war's end. 

Zekla (Dathomirian female from Dathomir); the younger sister of the Nightsister Talzin, Mother Zekla became leader of the Nightsisters sometime after the Galactic Civil War.

Kal-Teraz (male Sith god); an ancient being possibly related to the Celestials, Kal-Teraz was one of the thirteen Sith gods, unified only by the leadership of Valtheran. After Vlatheran was defeated by unknown means, the Sith gods went their separate ways and Kal-Teraz went into hibernation on Dromund Kaas, where he would go under the notice of Lord Vitiate and Darth Millennial's dark side sect. In 25 ABY, Darth Vorath used the Staff of Valtheran to reawaken Kal-Teraz and, secretly, control the Sith god. A year later, Vorath unleashed Kal-Teraz on Coruscant, causing havoc and destruction where ever he went. When Luke destroyed the staff, Vorath lost control over Kal-Teraz and the Sith god was quickly weakened and destroyed by the combined forces of the Mandalorian Protectors and the Republic fleet.

Ra-Sal (male Sith god); one of the thirteen Sith gods who followed Valtheran, Ra-Sal traveled to the realm of Praetus, which served as the Netherworld of the Force. There he used the unbalance of the Force caused by Vorath's return from the Unknown Regions and unleashed his armies on the Order of Dai Bendu. After Luke and Toah restored the balance with Vorath's demise, Ra-Sal and his armies were soon defeated.
  Nekros (Humanoid male); a follower of Ra-Sal.

Raj Braven (Human male); Raj Braven was a former New Republic soldier before he resigned to live the life of a mercenary. In 25 ABY, he purchased the Millennium Falcon from Titus Klev, unaware of its connection with Han Solo. Months later, he and his mercenary group met Toah Jarsan on Telos IV and they decided to help him in his journey to find Darth Vorath and destroy the Staff of Valtheran. After fighting in the Battle of Coruscant and witnessing the Empire's defeat, Braven and his gang later accompanied Toah on his quest to find more on his past.

Cera Braven (Human female); Raj's wife. That's all I've made of her backstory so far.

LEADERS/BOSSES

Mujambo (Kyuzo male); years ago, around 990 BBY, Mujambo, along with Daraga the Hutt, founded the mercenary group known as the Snatchers, after their predecessors the Tuskens were disbanded by Chancellor Tarsus Valorum. Over time, Mujambo became delusional, especially after the Snatcher Nad Malum became a Dark Lord of the Sith, and thus wanted to see his faction's progress to the end. Thus, he began hibernating in stasis, while Daraga the Hutt oversaw the factions until his death in 200 BBY. Mujambo then entrusted another Hutt to establish new leaders over time. By the time of the Galactic Civil War, Mujambo began impersonating or trading places with his fellow Kyuzo Embo (it is unknown if Embo died in the Clone Wars). After many of the Snatchers resigned or were killed following Bossk's death at Mandalore, Mujambo decided to take action and become leader once again. 

Marka Zurge (Devaronian female); a feisty, short-tempered Devaronina, Marka Zurge became the Snatchers' Boss around 19 BBY. Two decades later, Zurge went on a mission to Alderaan and was killed when the planet was destroyed by the Death Star. She was immediately succeeded by her deputy, Zoran.

Zoran (Falleen male); a stubborn man, Zoran was the deputy of the Snatchers under Marka Zurge's leadership. After Zurge's death, Zoran, as per the Snatcher's chain of command policy, immediately became the Boss. It is unknown what Zoran's fate was, but he was eventually succeeded by Dan'wal in 4 ABY.

Dan'wal (Human male from Taris); raised by an upper class family, Dan'wal joined the Snatchers under Zoran's leadership and became the Falleen's deputy. Sometime before or after the Battle of Endor, Dan'wal replaced Zoran as Boss. In 5 ABY, he sent Cad Bane and a group of Snatchers to Dantooine, in the hopes of capturing Luke Skywalker. Months before the Dark Empire's fall, Dan'wal was assassinated by Black Sun.

Cad Bane (Duros male from Duro); a famous bounty hunter who was often hired by Darth Sidious during the Clone Wars, Cad Bane joined the Snatchers at some point after escaping Republic custody and became Dan'wal's deputy after the Tarisian became Boss. In 5 ABY, Bane would lead a team of Snatchers to Dantooine to capture Luke Skywalker but failed. Years later, after Dan'wal's death, Bane and the rest of the Snatchers were hired to work for Gorga the Hutt, who had taken over his uncle Jabba's criminal empire. After Gorga himself was killed, Bane became Boss and recruited several Snatchers to replace those who had died on Tatooine. During the Imperial Sith War, after Bane's deputy Bossk was killed, most of the Snatchers resigned, leaving Bane leader of nothing. Mujambo, disguised as the Kyuzo Embo, turned on Bane and forced him to leave the Snatchers' hideout on Nar Shaddaa and never return. Bane did so and has not been seen since.

MEMBERS

Bossk (Trandoshan male from Trandosha); the son of legendary bounty hunter Cradossk, Bossk was a well-known bounty hunter that specialized in hunting Wookiees, the Trandoshans' rival species. During the Galactic Civil War, Bossk was among six bounty hunters hired by Darth Vader to track down the Millennium Falcon. In 11 ABY, Cad Bane recruited Bossk into the Snatchers and made the Trandoshan his deputy. During the Imperial Sith War, Bossk was contacted by former Republic captain Thrak Jal'daan, who told the Snatchers that Han Solo would be trying to ask the Mandalorians for help. Determined to be praised for killing a well-known person such as Han, and to settle a score with him and Chewbacca, Bossk took a group of Snatchers and followed the duo to Mandalore. Once on Mandalore, the Snatchers attacked Han, Chewbacca, and the Mandalorians. As the duo tried to escape, Bossk leaped onto their ship and attempted to plant a bomb until a Mandalorian flew and collided into the Trandoshan just as the bomb exploded, killing them both. 

Zuckuss (Gand male from Gand); when the Empire conquered his homeworld, Zuckuss abandoned his original career as a findsman and became a bounty hunter in the Crimson Nova guild. At some point during his bounty hunting career, Zuckuss became partners with the droid 4-LOM. During the Galactic Civil War, Zuckuss and 4-LOM were hired by Darth Vader to find the Millennium Falcon. A few years later, they joined the Snatchers and were often paired up with Bane. Zuckuss would continue to serve under Cad Bane's leadership and was one of the few Snatchers who remained with Bane when many of them resigned. After Mujambo turned on Bane and took over the Snatchers, he made Zuckuss his deputy.

Dengar (Human male from Corellia); a bounty hunter who worked during the Clone Wars, Dengar was seriously injured in a swoop bike accident and was repaired by Imperial scientists, who erased his emotions and turned him into an assassin. During the Galactic Civil War, a few years after he abandoned the Empire, Dengar was hired by Darth Vader to track down Han Solo. A few years later, he, along with fellow bounty hunters Zuckuss and 4-LOM, joined the Snatchers and served under the leaderships of Dan'wal and Cad Bane. Sometime during the Imperial Sith War, Dengar regained his emotions and decided to retire and marry the female Aruzan Manaroo.

4-LOM (LOM-series protocol droid); constructed by Industrial Automaton, 4-LOM served as a translator on board the Kuari Princess until the ship's computer altered his programming, prompting him to leave the transport. He soon ended up in the hands of Jabba the Hutt, who reprogrammed him completely into a bounty hunter. Years later, 4-LOM became partners with the bounty hunter Zuckuss and the two would often work together. After failing in tracking down Han Solo, 4-LOM and Zuckuss joined the Snatchers and stuck with the group even after Bossk's death. He is currently part of Mujambo's reconstructed faction.

Embo (Kyuzo male from Phatrong); a bounty hunter who lived during the Clone Wars, Embo was part of the Zabrak Sugi's band of mercenaries. He later left her group to be hire by Count Dooku to take part in the Box. It is unknown if he died during the Clone Wars, for if he did, then Mujambo began impersonating him around the time of the Galactic Civil War. In the end, Embo had vanished from the Snatchers entirely and Mujambo took his place during the Imperial Sith War.

Tarr-Nar-Mall (Cerean male); recruited during the Civil War, Tarr-Nar-Mall was a mercenary who specialized in hunting Jedi. In 11 ABY, he managed to convince his former partner Naeroo Viin to join the Snatchers. Fourteen years later, Mall accompanied Bossk's team to Mandalore to kill Han Solo and Chewbacca. The Cerean was about to kill Solo until Boba Fett fired a blaster bolt through his large cranium, killing him.

Kale Karsa (Human male from Concord Dawn); years ago, Kale Karsa was a member of the Mandalorian Protectors under Fenn Shysa. However, Karsa betrayed Shysa and decided to join the Snatchers around 4 ABY. During the Imperial Sith War, Han Solo, who learned of Karsa's ties to the Mandalorians, hired him in order to reach Mandalore and convince the Protectors to help the New Republic. Karsa agreed to accompany them, and used a tracking beacon to lead Bossk and his gang after Solo. Once on Mandalore, Karsa confronted Han but was soon apprehended by Boba Fett and the Mandalorians, and was eventually imprisoned. 

Jalan (Weequay male); a skilled and talented thief, Jalan was once part of Hondo Ohnaka's pirate group as a teenager. Later on, Jalan was recruited into the Snatchers and was part of Bane's team. In 11 ABY, he was at Gorga the Hutt's palace when Luke Skywalker, riding on top Animus' dragon from, burst through the palace's dungeon floor and brought the palace down. Jalan was among the many killed. 

Kerran Khan (Human male); a former smuggler, Kerran Khan, whose name is in fact an alias, was a pilot who once served in the Imperial Navy before abandoning the Empire following a defeat at Ando. Changing his name to Kerran Khan, the ex-TIE pilot joined the Snatchers and served as co-pilot of the Halo, the Snatchers' preferred ship. He was part of Cad Bane's team at Dantooine and was later killed when Animus and Skywalker barged through Gorga the Hutt's palace.

Smarty (Siniteen male from Rattatak); his original name unknown, the mercenary known as Smarty was an intelligent Siniteen and the Halo's ship navigator. Sometime before Dan'wal's death, Smarty and Dem Hazon left the Snatchers to do work for the New Republic and served as weapon supervisors.

Dem Hazon (Arconan male from Cona); a member of Bane's team, Dem Hazon was the main pilot of the Halo. Along with Smarty, Hazon later left the Snatchers to supervise weapons for the New Republic.

Kanaj (Zabrak male); a skilled assassin, Kanaj's history remains unknown. Like Khan and Jalan, he was killed during Luke Skywalker's escape from Gorga's palace.

Alor Onab (Human male from Corellia); a pilot whose skills were considered just as good as Han Solo's, Alor Onab was recruited by Cad Bane to serve as the Halo's pilot after Dem Hazon resigned. He piloted the ship when Bossk took his team to Mandalore and later resigned after Bossk's death.

Kyta Parasiti (Clawdite female from Zolon); the younger sister of Bane's former partner Cato Parasiti, Kyta was recruited by Bane to fill in as an assassin after Kanaj's death. Although she was reluctant to join, due to Dan'wal having killed her lover Manier Vemson, Parasiti eventually joined and served under Bane throughout the Imperial Sith War. Years later, Parasiti found out that Bane was involved with Vemson's death and attempted to kill Bane, but was stopped and had her arm sliced off by Mujambo (again, disguising as Embo). As such, the female Clawdite later resigned.

Naeroo Viin (Iktotchi male); a mercenary specialized in hunting Jedi, Naeroo Viin was once partners with Tarr-Nar-Mall, who later convinced Viin to join the Snatchers. After Mall's death, Viin left the Snatchers to work for Darth Vorath's Sith Empire. It is unknown if he survived the war and the empire's collapse.

Ran-Dal (Bogg male from Boggs 4); a slippery spy and assassin, Ran-Dal was recruited by Cad Bane sometime after the incident on Tatooine. He later resigned along with Alor Onab after Bossk's death.

Thrak Jal'daan (Human male from Bastion); a former captain in the New Republic Navy, Thrak Jal'daan became acquaintances with Kale Karsa at some point, and later became a Snatcher. Along with Karsa, Jal'daan led Han Solo and Chewbacca to Mandalore, where the Snatchers had set up a trap. However, the duo and the Mandalorian Protectors were able to defeat the Snatchers and arrest Jal'daan and Karsa.

Manier Vemson (Human male); a Snatcher under Dan'wal's leadership, Manier Vemson, nicknamed Manny by others, was the lover of Kyta Parasiti. He was later killed by Dan'wal and Cad Bane for unknown reasons.

The Essential Guide to Star Wars Destiny Characters: The Sith (and Sith-related)

SITH LORDS

Darth Vorath (Human male from Coruscant); born and raised during the Great Sith War, Kalon Soral was the son of Jedi Knights Taarn Soral and Eve Sendar. After Exar Kun's defeat, Soral was brought into the Jedi Order and soon became a Jedi Knight. Years later, when the Mandalorian Wars broke out, Kalon Soral was among the Jedi Knights who joined Revan's Jedi Crusaders, also known as Revanschists. After the war's end, Soral, along with the other Revanchists, joined Revan and Malak in their new Sith Empire, entering the Jedi Civil War. After the death of Darth Malak and the redemption of Revan, the empire's fragments retreated to Korriban, where civil war broke out and Soral took leadership of one of the many Sith factions. Months later, Revan arrived on Korriban and drove off many of the Sith. Soon, only Soral remained, and he was defeated by Revan in the tomb of Marka Ragnos. Just as Revan was about to deliver the killing blow, Soral's lover, Nova Azulon, stepped in and was slayed by Revan's blade. 

After deciding to spare Soral, Revan forced the former Jedi into exile, and Kalon Soral remained in hiding throughout the conflict against the Sith Triumvirate. After the Triumvirate collapsed, Soral traveled to the remains of Malachor V, which served as the Sith's headquarters, and encountered the Sith spirit of Darth Trayus, who taught Soral the ways of the Sith, teachings that Darth Revan had not taught. Soon, Soral became a full-fledged Sith Lord, taking on the title of Darth Vorath, Dark Lord of the Sith.

In the centuries that followed, Darth Vorath remained in hiding while countless other Lords of the Sith rose and fell. He watched the Sith Emperor's invasion on the galaxy, witnessed Darth Ruin's founding of the New Sith Empire, and the fall of Lord Kaan and the Brotherhood of Darkness. With Darth Bane's rise, Vorath chose to remain in the shadows, so Bane did not feel his presence and try to kill him. After a thousand years, Vorath returned from hiding to find out that Bane's Sith Order had fallen with the deaths of Darths Sidious and Vader. It was then that Vorath began planning his invasion of the galaxy.

The details of Vorath's plan are too many to list, but in a nutshell, it involved rooting out those still too loyal to Palpatine and his vision, and to use the remnants of the old Empire to forge a new Sith Empire. Once his plan was set in place, Vorath attacked the New Republic and began the Imperial Sith War. The war lasted for two years, and it ended with a full-scale invasion on Coruscant, where Vorath dueled with Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker and his apprentice Toah Jarsan. During his fight with the former, Vorath's plan was quickly put to ruins when Luke sacrificed himself to destroy the Staff of Valtheran, a Sith relic that allowed Vorath to control his secret weapon, the Sith god Kal-Teraz. With the loss of Kal-Teraz, Vorath's army was soon defeated. Angered by this, Vorath lashed out at Toah with Sith lightning, and was close to killing the young Jedi until the spirits of past people he had killed with the Staff of Valtheran rose up and helped Toah kill the Dark Lord of the Sith, ending his reign and the plan he had in mind for thousands of years.

Darth Nemesis (Human male clone from Dromund Kaas); a clone of the legendary Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, Darth Nemesis was created by Darth Vorath to created a purely dark-sided copy of Anakin that was not hindered by the prosthetic replacements that Darth Vader had. For many years, Nemesis served as an assassin for Vorath, and was one of only two Sith Lords other than Vorath that held power over the Sith Council. In 25 ABY, Nemesis, who was not told that the Crimson Empire was under Vorath's control, began to feel deceived by his master when he found out the truth. A year later, on the day of the Sith's attack on Coruscant, Nemesis decided to help Toah Jarsan in his journey to find Vorath, destroy the Staff of Valtheran, and stop the Sith Empire. He later helped Toah in fighting Vorath and was considered to have fully redeemed himself by the end of the battle. He decided to take on the name Annikin Skywalker in order of his prime template and Luke. 

Darth Ravage (Zabrak male from Iridonia); the son of an Iridonian warlord, Zavar Rarnok was born sometime during the era of the Clone Wars. When the Separatists invaded Iridonia during the war, Rarnok's father was killed and the young Zabrak was taken captive, ending up imprisoned on a moon. Shortly before the war's end, Rarnok was freed by Darth Vorath, who took the Zabrak as an apprentice and named him Darth Ravage (not to be confused with the Dark Councilor of the same name). After much training, Darth Ravage soon became Vorath's most trusted lieutenant, holding power even over the Sith Council. After the outbreak of the Imperial Sith War, Ravage began to see a flaw in Vorath's plan. After fulfilling one last mission for his master, which was to sow distrust over the Jedi across the galaxy, Ravage abandoned the Sith Order at Coruscant and retreated to Vorath's former hideout, where he planned on declaring himself Dark Lord of the Sith and continuing Darth Bane's Rule of Two. However, before he could claim the mantle, the Dark Jedi-turned-Sith Lumiya had her new apprentice kill Ravage, leaving her to take on the title of Dark Lord, as well as to continue Bane's rule.

Darth Stalker (Human male clone form Kamino); created by Darth Vader in 1 BBY, Starkiller was a clone of Vader's former secret apprentice Galen Marek, being the only perfect, purely dark-sided clone of Marek. It is unknown what Starkiller did during the Galactic Civil War, but he eventually went into exile after Vader's death over Endor. He eventually joined Darth Vorath's Sith Order, serving as an acolyte at first. Shortly before the Imperial Sith War, Starkiller was made a member of the Sith Council and was given the name Darth Stalker. Along with Darth Scythe, Darth Stalker led the Battle of Dantooine during the war. After fighting in the Battle of Coruscant, Stalker retreated from the battle along with the other Sith Lords following Vorath's death. However, Stalker did not accompany the others on their way to Korriban, instead disappearing to other Sith worlds, hoping to find the secret to transfer essence and preserve his quickly-aging life by possessing multiple clone bodies (a la the Clone Emperor from Dark Empire.)

Darth Mordus (Duros male); a member of Vorath's Sith Council, Darth Mordus was recruited into the Sith Order sometime before the Invasion of Naboo. During the Imperial Sith War, Mordus was put in command of the Tyrant, as well as the Galaxy Gun. During the Battle of Dantooine, Mordus was prepared to use the superweapon on the planet until an as-of-yet unidentified pilot committed suicide and destroyed the Galaxy Gun from the inside. Due to this failure, Mordus did not return to Dromund Kaas and instead retreated to a planet elsewhere in the Outer Rim. Vorath soon found Mordus and killed him with the Staff of Valtheran, absorbing his soul.

Darth Scythe (Twi'lek male); like Stalker and Mordus, Darth Scythe was a member of Vorath's Sith Council and its unofficial chairman. During the Imperial Sith War, he commanded the Star Destroyer Eradicator during the Battle of Dantooine and later reported the Sith's defeat to Vorath. Months later, he took part in the Battle of Coruscant and retreated after Vorath's defeat and Kal-Teraz's demise, leading the remaining Sith to Korriban.

Jerec (Miraluka male); a former Jedi Master and leader of Emperor Palpatine's Seven Dark Jedi, Jerec, along with Sariss and Gorc, were brought to Darth Vorath's Sith Order in 6 ABY and at least Jerec was made a Sith Lord. At the time of the Imperial Sith War, Jerec served as military leader for the Sith Empire. It is unknown if he was killed during the Battle of Coruscant or if he retreated to Korriban along with the other surviving Sith Lords.

Zale Ven (Human male); a former Royal Guard-in-training during Palpatine's reign, Zale Ven became a Sith Knight in Vorath's order, a group of Sith warriors that served as bodyguards for the Crimson Emperor Espaa Valorum. After Darth Vorath took over, Ven and the others continued to serve as Sith Knights under the command of Darth Stalker. Their fates remain unknown.

Tares Mal (Human male); a Sith Knight in Vorath's empire, Tares Mal was the apprentice of Zale Ven. Like the other knights, his fate remains unknown.

SITH SPIRITS

Darth Andeddu (Humanoid male); an ancient Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Andeddu lived in exile on Prakith for several thousand years. In 25 ABY, Darth Vorath visited Prakith to speak with Andeddu's spirit to find the Staff of Valtheran. Much to his surprise, Andeddu was very much alive, having transferred his essence to the bodies of his followers over the past millennia. After a long duel, Vorath managed to kill Andeddu's current body as well as all of the Dark Lord's followers, preventing him from transferring his spirit any further. After leading Vorath to Oricron, Andeddu's spirit was later absorbed by the Staff of Valtheran once Vorath had obtained it. When the staff was broken, Andeddu was released, now free to either remain as a ghost or move on to the Netherworld of the Force.

Darth Vitus (Sith male); a Sith Lord who lived during the Golden Age of the Sith, Darth Vitus was the apprentice of Darth Andeddu. During his master's reign as Dark Lord, Vitus traveled to the moon of Oricron, where he performed a series of experiments that resulted in his death and the destruction of the planet Oricron was orbiting. Living as a ghost on Oricron's moon, Darth Vitus would later teach the Sith Lord Darth Drear of Emperor Vitiate's Sith Empire and give him the instructions needed to create the zombie virus that he would make later on. In 25 ABY, Darth Vorath arrived on Oricron in search of the Staff and armor of Valtheran and encountered Vitus' spirit, who unleashed an army of zombies upon the Dark Lord. After defeating the undead creatures, Vorath was given the staff and armor by Vitus, and he then used the staff to trap the Sith Lord's ghost. A year later, when Luke Skywalker destroyed the staff, Vitus' spirit was released.

Exar Kun (Human male); a Dark Lord of the Sith who led his brotherhood in the Great Sith War, Exar Kun's spirit was confined to his tomb on Yavin 4 for centuries. In 12 ABY, he left his tomb to possess the young Jedi Kyp Durron but was quickly defeated by Luke Skywalker and his students. A decade later, Skywalker and Toah Jarsan visited Kun's spirit in search of finding out Toah's origins. His spirit was later absorbed by Vorath with Valtheran's staff and later released after Skywalker destroyed the weapon. 

The Essential Guide to Star Wars Destiny Characters: Galactic/Dark/Crimson Empires

RULERS

GALACTIC EMPIRE

Sate Pestage (Human male from Ciutric IV); a former aide to Palpatine, Sate Pestage was Grand Vizier of the Galactic Empire up until the Emperor's death, following which Pestage became ruler of the Empire on Coruscant, although many Moffs and Grand Moffs self-proclaimed themselves as rulers or warlords. Pestage's reign was short lived, for most of his advisors turned against him and he was forced to make a deal with the New Republic to protect him. When the Republic did not satisfy his needs, Pestage retreated to his homeworld of Ciutric IV, where he was killed by Imperial Admiral Delak Krennel.

Ysanne Isard (Human female from Coruscant); Director of Imperial Intelligence, Ysanne Isard declared her own faction against Sate Pestage, who had proclaimed himself acting Emperor. Isard orchestrated a complicated series of events that saw to the collapse of Pestage's advisory council and the death of Pestage himself. Isard then briefly took over the remnants of the Empire but was quickly defeated.

Mitth'raw'nuruodo 'Thrawn' (Chiss male from Csila); the last of the Grand Admirals appointed by Emperor Palpatine, Mitth'raw'nuruodo, simply known by his core name Thrawn, became Supreme Commander of the Imperial Army following Darth Vader's death, although it is unlikely Pestage and Isard recognized him as such, or that they planned on leaving him in command. After both of them fell, Thrawn took over the last remnants of the Empire and retreated to the Deep Core. 

There, on the planet of Byss, Thrawn awakened the clone Darth Sidious, who formed the Dark Empire. Sidious officially made Thrawn Supreme Commander, and the Chiss Grand Admiral would lead a short but devastating campaign on the New Republic in 9 ABY. A year later, Sidious placed Thrawn in command of a strike force poised to invade Coruscant. The attack was brief though, for Thrawn realized that the Emperor was planning on getting rid of him, and so he ordered a retreat for the Unknown Regions. 

Thrawn and his forces eventually reached Dromund Kaas, where Darth Vorath's secret empire awaited them. Thrawn decided to join the empire, unaware that it was ruled by a Sith Lord. In 25 ABY, days before the Imperial Sith War began, Thrawn was attacked by the Sith Lord Darth Nemesis, who was sent to rid of anyone deemed unworthy of Vorath's empire. Thrawn, however, did not give Nemesis the satisfaction of killing him, and so seemingly committed suicide by throwing a thermal detonator right in his own apartment.

DARK EMPIRE

Darth Sidious II (Human male clone from Byss); created by Finis Valorum (disguised as the scientist Atha Prime) in order to root out and destroy those still loyal to the original Emperor Palpatine, Darth Sidious was first discovered by Grand Admiral Thrawn in 6 ABY, and Sidious reformed the remnants of the old Empire into the old Empire. For the next few years, Sidious would launch a long campaign against the Republic, though it wouldn't be until 10 ABY that he revealed himself to the known galaxy. In 11 ABY, Sidious completed a project that the original Palpatine failed to finish; the Blue Harvest Project, which resulted in the Galaxy Gun. The clone Emperor used the superweapon on the planet of Empress Teta, which was simply a test so that Darth Vorath could use the weapon in his planned attack. After the victory at Empress Teta, Sidious was considered to be no longer needed, and he was killed by Atha Prime. His death was then leaked through the HoloNet, and the Dark Empire officially conceded, ending the Galactic Civil War.

Darius Onneir (Human male from Bastion); a strong supporter of Emperor Palpatine, Darius Onneir was Moff of the Braxant sector under Grand Moff Disra, although he was unofficially given complete control over the sector after Disra sided with the warlord Trioculus and was subsequently arrested. After Darth Sidious' death, Onneir was elected leader of the Dark Empire's remnant, and he took the rest of the Empire to Bastion. Fourteen years later, Senator Leia Organa Solo was sent to negotiate a peace treaty with the remnant, to which Onneir arrogantly declined. At that moment, Darth Ravage and many other Sith Lords attacked them and killed Onneir, as well as everyone else in the Dark Empire remnant, although Admiral Klev managed to escape.

CRIMSON EMPIRE

Espaa Valorum (Human male from Dromund Kaas); the son of Finis Valorum, Espaa was raised by the Prophets of the Dark Side and later made de jure ruler of Darth Vorath's 'Crimson' Empire, although Espaa was unaware of Vorath. When Thrawn's forces arrived on Dromund Kaas, Espaa convinced them to join the Crimson Empire, giving Vorath's the army he needed. Fourteen years later, after capturing Han, Leia, and their friends, Espaa Valorum was killed by Darth Vorath, who no longer needed him.

Darth Vorath (Human male from Coruscant); an ancient Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Vorath personally orchestrated the years of the Galactic Civil War following Emperor Palpatine's death. In 25 ABY, once everything was set, he unleashed an attack on the New Republic, starting the Imperial Sith War. During the climatic battle on Coruscant, Vorath dueled with Luke Skywalker and Toah Jarsan and was killed, ending the war and his empire. For more information, see the next post.

MEMBERS

Gilad Pellaeon (Human male from Corellia, raised on Coruscant); a captain in the Old Republic Navy, Gilad Pellaeon became captain of the Chimaera in the Empire and served under Grand Admiral Thrawn. Pellaeon would later serve in the Dark Empire and the Sith Empire, and eventually became an admiral in the latter. During the Battle of Coruscant at the end of the Imperial Sith War, Pellaeon realized that the galaxy would never be at peace under any empire, and thus ordered his fleet and many others to defect, giving the New Republic the upper hand they needed in winning the battle. Afterwards, Pellaeon became Head of State of the Imperial Remnant and member of the First Galactic Alliance Triumvirate.

Titus Klev (Human male from Alsakan); son of Clone Wars veteran Vintus Klev, Titus Klev was a commander in the Imperial Army. He was among Thrawn's forces when they retreated to the Deep Core and joined under the clone Darth Sidious. In the Dark Empire, Klev was promoted to admiral and was put in command of Sidious' flagship, the Eclipse. At first, Klev was loyal to Sidious, but following the destruction of Empress Teta, he began to lost trust in the Emperor. After Sidious' death, Klev and the rest of the Dark Empire followed Darius Onneir to Bastion. When Darth Ravage and the Sith began killing everyone in the empire, Klev fled the scene and stole the Millennium Falcon, fleeing to Nar Shaddaa. There he sold the ship to Raj Braven and believed that he was safe on Nar Shaddaa. However, the Sith placed a bounty on his head, and Klev was soon killed by the mercenary group the Snatchers. 

Nil Nihan (Human male from Saarn, raised on Coruscant); born to a couple who crash-landed on Saarn, Nil Nihan was found by the Empire and taken to Coruscant, where he was raised by a rich family. As an adult, Nihan quickly rose in power, eventually becoming a Grand Moff and governor of the Esstran sector. After Emperor Palpatine's death, Nihan was put in charge of the fleet consisting of the Vengeance. Along with the rest of Thrawn's forces, Nihan went to Dromund Kaas and eventually joined Darth Vorath's Sith Empire. Nihan was later killed by Darth Scythe when he was caught sneaking into the Twi'lek Sith Lord's library. 

Viic Argen (Human male from Anaxes); a former captain in the Old Republic, Viic Argen was promoted to admiral at some point and put in charge of the Vengeance and its fleet, although he later began answering to Grand Moff Nihan following the Battle of Endor. Under the Dark Empire, Admiral Argen was tasked with leading an attack on Had Abbadon. Days later, during the Empire's brief attack on Coruscant, Argen refused to comply with Thrawn's order to retreat, and was thus fired upon by Admiral Kan-Rann.

Kan-Rann (Human male);  an admiral in the Imperial Navy, Kan-Rann was commander of the Tyrant II, after the original was captured by the New Republic. He took part in the Dark Empire's attack on Coruscant, and was ordered to destroy Admiral Argen's ship when the latter did not comply with Thrawn's order for a retreat. Kan-Rann then joined Darth Vorath's Sith Empire, serving under Darth Mordus. After the empire's failure at Dantooine, Vorath tracked down Mordus and Kan-Rann, who had abandoned the rest of the fleet, and killed them.

Korus (Human male from Coruscant); an Imperial admiral, Korus was commander of the Twilight and served under Grand Admiral Thrawn, although he often disagreed with the Chiss' tactics. He would go on to serve in the Dark Empire and the Sith Empire. During the Battle of Coruscant, the Twilight was brought down by Rogue Squadron and Korus was killed.

Evor (Human male from Axxila); an Imperial admiral, Evor was commander of the Imperious in the Dark Empire's army. He and his fleet took part in the Battle of Empress Teta, during which Darth Sidious unleashed the Galaxy Gun, destroying not only the planet, but Evor and his fleet as well.

Martok Zel (Human male); an admiral in the Imperial Navy, Martok Zel was commander of the Eradicator and served under Darth Scythe in the Sith Empire. He led his fleet in the Battle of Dantooine and later took part in the Battle of Coruscant. Due to his dislike of Scythe and the other Sith, it is likely Admiral Zel joined Admiral Pellaeon and defected from the Sith Empire.

Aay Zavos (Human male); in the Imperial Navy of Palpatine's Empire, Aay Zavos was captain of the Vendetta and eventually joined the Sith Empire, becoming an admiral and commander of Darth Vorath's flagship, the Apocalypse. He was tasked with leading the full-scale attack on Coruscant. During the battle, he was appalled by Pellaeon's betrayal and was too stunned to do anything, simply giving up and allow the combined enemy forces destroy him and the ship.

Kirus (Human male); an Imperial captain, Kirus served under Admiral Argen as his right-hand man and was captain of the Vengeance. During the Dark Empire's attack on Coruscant, Kirus wanted to comply with Thrawn's order to retreat but Argen forbade him. As such, Kirus was killed when the Vengeance was destroyed. 

Skem (Human male); a captain in the Sith Empire's army, Skem served under Admiral Martok Zel and was captain of the Eradicator. It is likely he defected from the Sith.

Brie was recovered by Darth Vader, who placed her in a semi-mechanical suit. After the Battle of Endor, Shira Brie, taking on the name Lumiya, was recruited by Atha Prime to 'serve' under the clone Darth Sidious. After the Dark Empire's collapse, Lumiya, her apprentice Flint, and Sidious' seven Dark Jedi retreated to Vjun. A year later, Sedriss decided to turn on Lumiya and attempted to assassinate her.

After Sidious' death, Flint and his master retreated to Vjun with the other Dark Jedi. When Sedriss and the Dark Jedi attempted to assassinate Lumiya, Flint confronted them and was killed.

Seven Dark Jedi; the Empire's first group of Dark Jedi. Merged with Vorath's Sith Order

 Jerec (Miraluka male); a former Jedi Master, Jerec survived the Great Jedi Purge and became an Inquisitor under Emperor Palpatine.

Following Palpatine's demise, Sariss accompanied the other Dark Jedi to Korriban, where Darth Trayus led to the tomb of Marka Ragnos. After putting them to a test, which Sariss managed to survive, the Sith spirit brought them to Vorath's Sith order.

Maw (Boltrunian male); during the Clone Wars, Maw was a Jedi Knight who served as a Shadow. He managed to escape the Empire's purge, eventually falling to the dark side and becoming one of Jerec's Dark Jedi apprentices. When the seven Dark Jedi arrived at Marka Ragnos' tomb, Darth Trayus unleashed a horde of zombies, and Maw was killed in the ensuing fight.

Boc Aseca (Twi'lek male from Ryloth); although his planet was under the watch of a Jedi Watchman, Boc Aseca was born the year said watchman, Master Bondara, was killed by Darth Maul. When his Force-sensitivity was finally discovered, Aseca was told that he was too old to begin Jedi training.

The Essential Guide to Star Wars Destiny Characters: Rogue Squadron

GALACTIC CIVIL WAR LINE-UP (5-19 ABY)

Wedge Antilles/Rogue Leader (Human male from Corellia); born to Jagged and Zena Antilles, Wedge was orphaned at the age of seventeen when his parents sacrificed their lives to save a fuel despot on Gus Treta. Antilles later joined the Rebel Alliance and flew for Red Squadron, under the callsign of Red Two. After the Battle of Yavin, Wedge, one of the few survivors, joined the original Rogue Squadron and flew as Rogue Three during the Battle of Hoth. A year later, he reformed Rogue Squadron into a new Red Squadron to honor those who died at Yavin during the Battle of Endor. Following the fall of Emperor Palpatine, Wedge reorganized Rogue Squadron once again, and led his fellow pilots in battles at Mygeeto and Had Abbadon. After the collapse of the Dark Empire, Rouge Squadron would continue to go on missions. In 19 ABY, Wedge thought it was time for new blood and stepped down as Rogue Leader, soon being promoted to admiral and eventually Supreme Commander.

Ibtisam/Rogue Two (Mon Calamari female from Dac); a rebellious fighter, Ibtisam joined the Rebel Alliance in order to fight against the Galactic Empire and their rule over her homeplanet. During the Galactic Civil War, Ibtisam flew a modified B-wing starfighter, which she flew during the Battle of Endor. Following the Empire's defeat, Ibtisam joined Wedge's reformed Rogue Squadron. She would fly for the New Republic in many battles, and later stepped down from her position to allow new pilots to get a chance. 

 Note: as you can see, Ibtisam doesn't die in my stories like she does in the canonical storyline. 

Nrin Vakil/Rogue Three (Quarren male from Dac); like most Quarren, Nrin Vakil was a stubborn and prideful man, and often came into conflict with Ibtisam, whose species rivaled with the Quarren. However, during their career in Rogue Squadron, Vakil and Ibtisam got over their natural instincts and became close friends. It is likely they began living together following the fall of the Dark Empire.

Xarcce Huwla/Rogue Four (Tunroth female from Saloch); unlike most people, Xarcce Huwla was rather hesitant to join Rogue Squadron, due to them often being assigned to dangerous missions. However, her friends convinced her and Huwla began flying for Rogue Squadron. During the Battle of Had Abbadon, Huwla's fears came true and the female Tunroth was shot down, either by a Super Star Destroyer or a World Devastator (I can't remember much from the volume she appeared in; I wrote that, like, a year ago (despite me typing out a few months ago)). She was temporarily replaced by the Twi'lek Warat Torr, and then by Bror Jace (a Human male from Thyferra).

Wes Janson/Rogue Five (Human male from Taanab); originally flying for the Tierfon Yellow Aces, Wes Janson was transferred to the original Rogue Squadron by the time of the Battle of Hoth, gunning for Wedge Antilles.

During the Battle of Endor, he was flew under the call-sign of Red Four, and later as Rogue Six under Wedge's reorganized Rogue Squadron. It is unknown what he did during the Imperial Sith War.

Feylis Ardele/Rogue Seven (Human female from Commenor); before joining the Rebel Alliance, Feylis Ardele was a pilot for the Galactic Empire. However, when her family was killed by the Empire, Ardele defected sometime before the Battle of Endor. Because of her experience in flying TIE fighters, Ardele was chosen to fly for Rogue Squadron by Wedge. She fought in the Battles of Mygeeto and Had Abbadon, and was killed in the latter. She was briefly succeeded by the Nautolan Seph Kisto and then by the Corellian Myn Donos.

Erisi Dlarit/Rogue Eight (Human female from Thyferra); an Imperial spy, Erisi Dlarit was sent by Director Ysanne Isard, one of the Imperial warlords who took over the Empire following Palpatine's death, and was tasked with spying on the New Republic.

Vin Sadoon/Rogue Eight (Kel Dor male from Dorin); a former freighter pilot, Vin Sadoon, along with Toah Jarsan, Seph Kisto, and Warat Torr, enlisted into the New Republic Defense Force in 6 ABY. Wedge found Sadoon to be the most experienced and talented out of the four of them, and placed him as Rogue Eight following Dlarit's betrayal and subsequent death. Sadoon would fly for Rogue Squadron in the Battle of Had Abbadon and Empress Teta. He resigned in 19 ABY like the others, but soon returned during the Imperial Sith War following Leth Liav's death at Dac.

Celchu graduated as a lieutenant and was assigned to the Accuser as a TIE pilot. After Alderaan was destroyed by the Death Star, Celchu abandoned the Empire and joined the Rebel Alliance, eventually becoming a member of Rogue Squadron, flying as Rogue Five. During the Battle of Endor, Celchu flew for Green Squadron and later joined Wedge's reformed Rogue Squadron. After taking part in many battles during the Galactic Civil War, Celchu resigned from the squadron and became an adviser for new pilots of Rogue Squadron during the Imperial Sith War.

Corran Horn/Rogue Ten (Human male from Corellia); the son of the Jedi Knight Valin Halcyon, Corran Horn was a student of Luke Skywalker's at the Jedi Praxeum. He joined Rogue Squadron around 7 ABY, since extra pilots were needed, and flew in the battles at Had Abbadon and Empress Teta. Unlike most of the other Rogues, Corran stayed with Rogue Squadron during the Imperial Sith War, although he was often filled in by the Gand Ooryl Qrygg so he could complete his Jedi training.

It is unknown if she survived the Battle of Empress Teta, or what her life was after resigning if she did.

However, when he saw the horrors of Empress Teta's destruction on the HoloNet, J'bath decided he wanted to join the Republic. Training as pilot, the young Bith was eventually assigned to Rogue Squadron a few years before Darth Vorath's Sith attacked the galaxy. During the Battle of Coruscant, J'bath's X-wing fighter was shot down over the planet. It is unknown if he survived the crash or not.

Warat Torr/Rogue Four (Twi'lek male from Ryloth); a friend of Seph Kisto and Vin Sadoon, Warat Torr signed up for Rogue Squadron in 6 ABY, but didn't quite make the cut, and was instead assigned to Green Squadron.

In 20 ABY, he was chosen by Gavin Darklighter to fly for the new Rogue Squadron roaster, and Torr was able to fly alongside Kisto and Sadoon. During the Battle of Courscant, Torr's fighter was shot down along with J'bath's. His fate is currently unknown.

Inyri Forge/Rogue Five (Human female from Kessel); the younger sister of Lujayne Forge, Inyri was vouched for by her sister and was thus chosen to fly for the Rogue Squadron's new roaster. She survived the two battles at Dac and Coruscant and was promoted to major following the war's end.

Jak Denon/Rogue Six (Human male from Kuat); born to a wealthy family, Jak Denon, unlike most Kuati, was not a cutthroat individual like his family was. He enlisted into the New Republic Defense Force and was chosen to fly for Rogue Squadron in 20 ABY.
