As she shares the Sith's desire to have only the best under one's command, Nicolina says, "Along the same lines, sir, I do have a few thoughts to share about who I would like to have serving under me in certain positions. As it is not yet time to discuss such matters when the training program has not yet been completed, Nicolina adds, When the time comes for making such decisions, of course." "I trust your judgement and give you free reign to decide who you wish to serve under you. Just know that the actions of your troops reflects on you and your leadership abilities. Their triumphs and failures will be yours, and you will answer for them. Understand?"The Darth's demeanor went from being a bit lax to more assertive and stern as he pointed his index finger directly at Nicolina's chest. He didn't necessarily mean to intimidate the new commander of his forces, but rather to remind her that he expected exceptional things from her and the people under her. A he finished speaking he withdrew his hand and returned it behind his back before continuing on to another topic."With that said, there are only a few weeks left of camp and I feel that you have learned all that you can from the Vipers. As far as I'm concerned, your training is complete. Besides, I have more important matters for you to deal with."In that moment, he retrieved a datacard from one of the pockets of his utility belt and passed it to her."I have been informed that the Supreme Commander is mobilizing for a campaign to take Wild Space and the Unknown Regions, starting at Nirauan. Gear up and assemble a team. I want you to use the skills you've learned here to aid the main fighting force in anyway way possible. I have faith in you."With his piece said, Rebellious turned on his heels and began walking away, leaving Foresi to prepare for the work she had ahead of her._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the First Order took Nirauan and defeated the Empire of the Hand, Darth Rebellious eventually returned to High Port to oversee the final week of training. The surveillance teams had already been settled into their roles and begun monitoring communications traffic as well as video feeds from various Imperial held worlds while the engineering teams were working around the clock to keep their equipment working at the highest capacities as well as keeping their own networks secure. In the mean time the individuals who would form the various combat teams at the Bureau's disposal were being evaluated and their positions in said teams were being finalized.It than began to move about, attempting to seek out someone with operational knowledge, to pin down what exactly its role here was going to be. After taking it all in, it was anxious to start its work, whatever that was intended to be. The Dark Lord walked through the facility with his head down, his eyes seeming to be constantly scanning lists of names on his datapad ever since returning from combat. Expansion was on his mind, although there were plenty of men and women currently in the final stages of training, he knew more would be needed. Rather than going through the channels and recruiting from troops who were already serving, he instead put his interest in the fresh recruits coming out of boot camp, feeling that they would be more malleable. it was during this time that he had received word from Nicademus that a droid was on it's way that the Darth should take particular interest in. Immediately, he went out to meet it.
It wasn't hard for the Sith to single out the humanoid machine in the hustle and bustle of the living, he could not feel it in the Force as opposed to the normal men and women who served under him, making it that much easier. The Kiffar's amber-hued eyes settled upon the ultrachrome frame and plating of the advanced robotic as he approached it. He didn't know exactly what to expect, but he was open-minded. Rebellious knew that any potential asset was worth looking into, especially if it came with recommendations from the Supreme Commander. The man seemed to have a keen eye for spotting talent."Beethirteen, I presume. The Supreme Commander told me you would be coming."The Sith placed his gloved hand over his chest as he introduced himself."I'm Darth Rebellious, Director of the Imperial Security Bureau. Welcome to our base of operations. Tell me, what brings you here?"The Darth was curious as to what the droid's functions and capabilities were, but judging based off of it's armored appearance, he assumed it was combat capable to say the least.

B13S had spotted the perfect person to ask its role, the Director himself. B13S had paused for a moment, and allowed the Director to approach him, and speak before it would respond in kind. Once the initial greeting, and questioning were complete B13S would quickly begin to inspect Darth Rebellious closely. It was very intrigued by the force, as it, currently, could not manipulate it nor sense it. It was very keen on the idea of finding some method of quantifying the phenomena in the near future.
"I am here because it was where Nicademus supposed I would have the most value to the First Order, I presume. I am capable of doing absolutely anything another singular entity of my size and stature could do, with maybe some small margin for walking on fragile surfaces...Though I could traverse it...With the exception of manipulating the Force, currently. I am not your tool, Director. I am an asset, surely. I am an individual. I am not property, I am people... You do not have to believe this, but I must insist that you humor me in my presence, at least.
That being said, I will fulfill the role or roles that you deem appropriate. I have seen what all you have constructed, and the sight is truly fascinating. I did not pry too deeply, of course, not knowing how much I am currently allowed access too."
The droid stood perfectly still, peering forward with sensors that could pick up almost any single thing that existed (outside of the force.) It was...anxious? It didn't feel anxiety like a human, of course not, but it was capable of being rendered twitchy without knowing or having control over a situation, and this situation was certainly that. Its simulators could surely run simulations with slightly modified variables hundreds of thousands of times, and B13S knew that one version of them would be what to expect, but until reality made itself known, there was no true means to predict the outcome with the present data accumulated.

Electrix arrived not too long after B13S, as the Supreme Commander had dismissed him a few moments after the droid. If felt good to be operating again, it had been far to long since he had engaged in combat...

Snapping to attention when gathering she is being dismissed, Nicolina salutes crisply as she says, "Thank you, sir. I won't let you down." Taking a deep breath as the Dark Lord turns and takes his leave, Nicolina absorbs the full meaning of their interaction, understanding full well all that could be involved in answering for any failures of her troops given that she is answering to a Dark Lord of the Sith now. The thought is a sobering one, but does not wholly dampen the excitement Nicolina feels about the new role she will taking, or the chance to utilize the training she and her platoon mates have received on the impending mission on Nirauan.
After returning her helmet to her head, Nicolina begins making her way back to where her platoon is training, readying herself to begin issuing the orders necessary to ensure they are ready for deploying to Nirauan.

A slight smirk crawled across the Director's lips as he listened to the droid speak. Rebellious found himself intrigued by BeeThirteen. Never in his many years abroad had he ever come across a droid with such personality. It was firm in it's belief that it was an individual, and as much as the Darth could tell, it seemed to be capable of independent thought to a certain degree. A being uninhibited by the bindings of mortality with the capability to process information and think beyond the capacity of a flesh-and-blood person could be considered extremely dangerous to most, but Rebellious was not like most people. To him, it made this particular "individual" a great asset; at least for now. As so, he would humor the machine's request."Property. Asset. AI. Individual. None of those titles matter to me as long as you can perform. For now everything seems quiet, so you are most need here. Access whatever records you would like. I will need you up to date on everything going on within the Order and beyond. You will answer directly to me. If you find anything useful or alarming inform me, and together we can come up with a course of action. I hope you are alright with that. Although we are mostly working in house right now, you may be able to get your hands dirty out in the field at some point if you're up to it. Does that sound good?"
Rebellious stood by, awaiting a response when he felt something in the Force.Electrix arrived not too long after B13S, as the Supreme Commander had dismissed him a few moments after the droid. If felt good to be operating again, it had been far to long since he had engaged in combat... He could feel someone strong in the Force arrive. Another Sith if he wasn't mistaken, the Dark Side clung to the being's presence much like himself. Without hesitation, the Dark Lord reached out with his consciousness and spoke to the individual through the Force."And who might you be?"

Electrix stared at, and basically through whom he assumed to be Darth Rebellious.
I am Electrix. I may look young, but this is a new body. My spirit is old. I now serve the First Order, as I served the Empire, and the Kashyyyk Sith before that.

Electrix stared at, and basically through whom he assumed to be Darth Rebellious. I am Electrix. I may look young, but this is a new body. My spirit is old. I now serve the First Order, as I served the Empire, and the Kashyyyk Sith before that. Electrix? Rebellious wasn't familiar with the one who bore that name, but he had heard it spoken once. He couldn't remember in what context, but as he explained his service history, the Dark Lord realized they must have had common allies at some point. With his attention momentarily diverted, the Darth shifted his gaze from the droid to the other Sith. His seemingly glowing, yellow eyes settling upon the dark-robed figure as he took in the man's features. Indeed, his body seemed young and capable, as did his power in the Force."I sense that you are a very capable, Electrix. I assume the Supreme Commander sent you here because you have a certain set of skills that may prove useful to the ISB, correct? An assassin, or jack of all trades maybe? Please divulge. I need to know as much as possible about those who are to sever under me."Rebellious was definitely curious to know the extent of Electrix's capabilities, but he was no fool. He doubted the Sith would reveal everything to him, it wasn't their way. Although he wasn't sure the exactly how capable the man was he did know that he would need to assert his dominance. The Sith respected power, and within the ISB, Darth Rebellious held it all. His subtle reminder that he was in charge here was made to serve that end.

Electrix stared back at the other Sith. His own yellow eyes seems to glow from the darkness of his hood.
Espionage, Assassination, Intelligence gathering, and advance torture and interrogation. I do all things, but I especially love killing Jedi.

"I will do just that. I will prepare many recommendation lists in order to increase our efficiency and increase our field of control. Is there anything more specific you would like for me to prepare, or simply do as I wish?"
The droid had expected, statistically, a less satisfying reply from Darth Rebellious, but the one that came was almost the best of possible outcomes. It allowed the droid the autonomy in which it insisted, and it gave it access to one of the largest information reserves in the galaxy, and gave it a task all at once. A focused mind, and all that...
The droid could only slightly make out the nuances of Rebellious's eyes that spoke of preoccupation, but it decided to ignore that, or, at least, not comment on it verbally, until his gaze turned. The droid's head swiveled to see Elextrix, and it would give the very human nod of acknowledgement, before taking a two pace step back from Rebellious, allowing their conversation to take the lead. It did, very rudely, interrupter Electrix's meeting with the Supreme Commander a short time prior to this moment.

"I will do just that. I will prepare many recommendation lists in order to increase our efficiency and increase our field of control. Is there anything more specific you would like for me to prepare, or simply do as I wish?" The Director returned his eyes to the droid. Although Electrix had caught his attention, Rebellious was still aware of the droid and heard his inquiry."For now, BeeThirteen, do as you wish. If I find a special task for you, I will let you know. Also if you come across something interesting, bring it to my attention."Espionage, Assassination, Intelligence gathering, and advance torture and interrogation. I do all things, but I especially love killing Jedi. With B13S dismissed, the Darth moved closer to his fellow Sith. It seemed the man was eager, but for the moment all was quiet and action seemed unlikely for the time being. However, he could feel a stirring in the Force. Conflict was coming whether there was hard evidence of it or not."You may very well have your chance. I can feel something brewing through the Force, but everything is calm right now. When the time comes I will need someone like yourself who isn't afraid to do what needs to be done to achieve our goals and can operate alone if it's called for. You, like our shiny new friend, will answer directly to me. For now, sharpen your skills and stay alert. I may need you soon enough."

Electrix bowed slightly to Rebellious.I forgot to add asset protection to my skills. I will serve as needed. Rebellious nodded in acknowledgement of the fellow Sith's statement. As he had said before, they currently had no mission to execute other than to keep their eyes and ears open for possible threats to the First Order and her assets."Very well. For now, do as you please. Catch up on some training if you will and stay alert, I may call on you soon."With his statement made, the Dark Lord made his departure with haste, he had an appointment to keep with their leader._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Some time after the Train Heist on Garqi...With the Galactic Republic dissolved and the First Order gaining ground, it was only a matter of time before someone decided to stand against them. Following the raid on an Imperial cargo train, it had finally become clear that allies of the former Republic and members of the Jedi Order had banded together to resist their spread. Under the guise of redeployments, the Supreme Commander had been gathering a force for a preemptive strike against the planet Dantooine. At last the time had come, Darth Rebellious had received word from the Imperial leader that the time to execute Operation Flashpoint Strike had come. With battle upon them, the Dark Lord opened a secure channel to the commander of his forces, Nicolina Foresi, the Sith Lord, Electrix and the droid, B13S."Foresi, Electrix. Gather some men and prepare them for battle, we will be departing for Dantooine shortly. Bee, I don't know the extent of your combat capabilities, but if you wish to tag along, you are welcome to do so, or you may stay here and continue monitoring the feeds. I'm sure there will be plenty of work to do after the operation is over. When everything is wrapped up here, board the Subjugator. Do not make me wait very long."Just as suddenly as it came, the transmission faded out. They had their orders and the Director expected them to be carried out swiftly.

Electrix opened eyes from his meditations when Rebellious beckon him. He smiled to himself. It had been some time since he tasted battle. He stood, made sure he had all of his weapons, and headed for the barracks of the High Port. He looked through the manifests of troops at the ISB's disposal. He selected 2 Storm Commando squads, Red and White. He issues orders to them to board the Subjugator, and then heads that way himself. Once on board, he feels out Rebellious through the Force and heads to meet him.

Nicolina is running some CQC drills with Noemi, one of her platoon's Lartie pilots, when the message from Darth Rebellious arrives on her datapad, which chirrups to alert her to the fact a message has been received. The chirrup distracts her Nagai sparring partner, and Nicolina, always teaching, uses the moment to grab Noemi's wrist and then flip her onto the ground. After pinning the Nagai pilot and giving her a brief lecture on the merits of preventing her mind from wandering during battle no matter what form of distraction prevents itself while also simultaneously keeping aware of all that is going on around her, Nicolina helps her back to her feet, and only then checks the message that provided the distraction.
After reading the message, Nicolina tells Noemi to get herself and her Lartie ready to deploy, and then comms the squad leaders of the Shadowtrooper platoons she will be leading onto battle along with those of her personal platoon to have them all get their troops ready to deploy as well. It will be strange, Nicolina thinks as she heads for her personal quarters to get ready herself, to be leading more than her usual platoon, but she feels more than ready to do so after all of the training and study she has done in preparation of assuming her new role as Darth Rebellious' Commander of the Imperial Security Bureau Special Forces Division.
Not long after the message from Rebellious was sent, Nicolina and her troops board their LAAT/i's and set out to dock aboard the Subjugator.

FromThe Mandalorian Luxury 5000 pulled into the assigned docking berth. The massive station was large enough that even the 65 meter ship has plenty of room to land instead of having to dock via clamps. The Jehavey'ir on the other hand remained in space, far enough out so as not to block the other ship if a hasty retreat was needed but close enough to make someone's day extremely unpleasant if it was required. It's weapon systems remained fully powered down, though its defensive systems were at full power. The wear from keeping the shields at full power would be extensive, but it would prevent anyone from launching a successful first strike kill.The first being to exit the ship was a female Zabrak wearing a dark grey suit. The suit's design was rather bland, though it was made of expensive material & extremely well tailored. The only obvious nod to the fact she was a mandalorian was the fact the suit had a pair of pauldrons build right into the suit. Each of the shiny shoulder pieces was worked with a simple but repetitive shield pattern. From the left pauldron hung a short white half-cape. She was a little over average height at 180 centimeters & had the well toned look of someone that used their body constantly. Her darkly tanned skin & sun bleached, close-cropped hair spoke to large amounts of time spend outdoors as well. That or she tanned extremely easily & bleached her hair, though if so, it was extremely well done. At her hip was a light vibrofoil. Close at her heel were roughly half a dozen small drones. Each looked like an oversized insect with multi-jointed legs. These spread out in a half circle centered on the boarding ramp. Taking a quick look around in a manner that would be instantly familiar to bodyguards everywhere, the woman checked the hanger for obvious threats. Finding no threats, she tapped on the discreet commlink bead worked into the cuff of her suit.A few moments later a second Female zabrak descended the ramp. This one was wearing an extremely simple sleeveless white dress that hugged her body until it reached her hips & flared out, ending just above her bare feet. Her only other clothing was a pair of extremely ornate vambraces on her wrists & the black pelt of some unknown creature hanging from her left shoulder. Unlike her escort, Aya's skin was pale to the point it was nearly translucent. It stood in stark contrast with her shoulder length jet black hair & the deep tan of the pair of curving horns sprouting from just above each golden eye.

The moment the delegation disembarked, there was a great commotion that rose off to their left. It was a unison chant that echoed throughout the large hangar they had been assigned to. It was proud and militant, filled with loyalty and fervor. The source was very obvious as the sight of ranks upon ranks of Stormtroopers were seen a few hangars down. A shuttle was coming in for landing, a Delta-class T-3c shuttle, that was apparently carrying someone rather important. The chants continued as the shuttle landed.
Hail! Hail! Hail!
The ramp of the shuttle lowers, revealing a male with red hair, sporting a white uniform, modeled off the Grand Admiral's outfit. As the middle-aged male appeared, the Stormtroopers snapped to attention, continuing with their great commotion. Nicademus gazes upon the officers present as the ranks of white-armored soldiers turned to face inward, snapping once more to attention and praising their leader with their vocal salute. The Imperial was escorted by at least four Imperial Knights and six black-armored Novatroopers. The Supreme Commander appreciated the display of loyalty and fervor to the First Order by his soldiers. As he passed by, subordinate officers would raise their hands, saluting their superior formally as he walked towards the other end of hangar.
Hail! Hail! Hail!
It was empowering to Nicademus, hearing such cries from his Stormtroopers. And it was all arranged just for such an occasion. With the arrival of a relatively unknown delegation to the planet of Muunilist, the Supreme Commander needed to show off their power, their pride and their loyalty. The chants continued even as Nicademus disappeared from view and moved down through the large orbital facility of High Port to the proper conference room. His eyes glance over at one of the Imperial Knights.
I think we most certainly got their attention, wouldn't you agree?
The Imperial Knight bows his head slightly.
Indeed, Supreme Commander.
====================================
The Stormtroopers began to return to their posts after the Supreme Commander departed, vacating the large hangar bay for their assignments and daily routines. A doorway across from the delegation's ship would open, revealing a new Imperial officer, who appeared to be ranked as a Garrison Commander, walking towards the female delegate, escorted by a squad of Stormtroopers. The officer comes to a halt within a respective distance from Aya. He calmly salutes the female delegate before speaking.
The Supreme Commander of the First Order welcomes Princess Aya of the House of Dizen to Muunilist. On behalf of the Supreme Commander, he personally extends the delegation of Dizen to join him in the conference room situated within the High Garden, above us presently. He looks forward to meeting you, Princess Aya. Now, if you and your party will follow me.
Turning upon his heel, the officer walks away, letting half of the Stormtrooper squad go ahead with him while the rest remain behind to take up the rear of the Dizen delegation.

Aya & her escort watched the fanatics put on a show for them. She wasn't too impressed though. In raw volume the First Order was only three or four times the Clan's current size. By population they had a bit more of an edge though. On the other hand, it was kind of hard to be impressed by fanatics when your own subjects very nearly deified your whole family. Of course the First Order had exploded nearly overnight while the Clan had built up its corner of the galaxy over the last fifty years. That level of growth had to be respected, if nothing else. Then again, it was yet to show whether the First Order would be able to maintain their current dominance.
Aya listens as the officer makes the first greeting. At least they were being polite. For now anyway. Indicating that the officer should lead the way, Aya fell into step behind him. Her escort smoothly slid into place a half a step behind her right shoulder. It was a place she occupied often. The set of droids bundled in close, keeping a sharp electronic eye on the surroundings for any possible threats.

It was a place she occupied often. The set of droids bundled in close, keeping a sharp electronic eye on the surroundings for any possible threats. A central turbolift took them to the High Garden far above the hangar's location. From the lift's view, the once-active space port of the IGBC had become a military installation since the regime of the First Order took over. Though the buildings remained where they were, many of them were used by Imperial Intelligence, specialized units and other training facilities that served the needs of the faction. The officer present remained silent for now as the turbolift went up many levels before coming to a halt.
Once out of the lift, the delegation would notice more Imperial Knights and black armored Stormtroopers that stood stationary and quiet at junctures and by doors. The area was rather still and quiet however. The hum and buzz of everything below their feet deafened and silenced. At a pair of large doors, the officer would salute the delegate, gesturing quietly towards it.Beyond this door is the High Garden. The Supreme Commander will be waiting for us on the far side of it.He turns to a guard present, offering a key card and identification. Once the soldier reviewed it, the Stormtrooper nodded and opened the door. The High Garden was what the Supreme Commander kept from the days of the IGBC. While all other traces of the corrupt organization were eliminated from every corner of the planet and system, the High Garden had remained and was improved by a skilled crew of gardeners. The officer would escort them through the area to a door on the far side, attended by a pair of Imperial Knights. Once the ID and Key cards were exchanged, the Dizen delegates were permitted to enter.
Once inside the conference room, the view of Muunilist was seemingly right before them. A large table present in the middle between four flags of the First Order which were the only decorations of the entire room. A full squad of Imperial Knights stood present, a pair at three doors including the one the delegates walked through while a fourth pair were present with Nicademus, who had changed his outfit from the stark white to a more plain black Imperial officer variant. Only the emblem of the First Order, which was placed upon the right side of his chest, stood as the lone decoration of his person. The Supreme Commander turned his gaze away from Muunilist to see the approaching delegates. The officer escorting them salutes the Imperial and gestures to Aya.Supreme Commander, this is Princess Aya of the House Dizen. Princess Aya, this is-Nicademus immediately raised his hand, silencing the subordinate within a split second.I can speak for myself, Commander. Thank you for bringing the delegation to me... now leave us.The commander bows and departs the room with the Stormtrooper escort. Once the door clamped shut, the Supreme Commander would speak.I am Nicademus Delvardus IV, Supreme Commander of the First Order. Please, take a seat so we may get to business.He gestures to the conference table near them.

Aya was a little surprised & quite pleased at the garden. Someone, or more likely a fairly large group of someones, had put a tremendous amount of effort into it. Aya personally knew how difficult it was to get any sort of proper agriculture going in space. Soon enough the pair entered the conference room however. The six drones remained close enough to Aya to jump in the way of anything that tried to attack her, but remained scattered enough to avoid someone being able to target a cluster of them. Aya watched dispassionately as the officer was dismissed. Her escort pulled the offered chair out slightly, which Aya then settled into. The escort herself remained standing behind Aya.
-Aya My introduction lacked that the House of Dizen is part of the Mandalorian Empire. Very simply, I am here about the fact that your borders draw ever closer to Mandalorian Space. On two fronts, in fact. If you continue to push toward the Hydian Way, we will soon come into conflict. The same applies to those holdings you have around Chiss Space. To avoid a pointless bit of bloodletting, I am here to discuss that with you.

Nicademus remains silent for now, but deep down, feels like this was gonna be rather annoying. A reminder to respect another nation's sovereignty or risk war. The Supreme Commander knew of his treaties and his boundaries. The Imperial knew who his enemies were, who were friendly and who were neutral. He didn't need a reminder.
There are a number of Mandalorian clans that are allied with the First Order. Mandalore knows they have a friend in my faction. Even if I were to move in their direction further, it would be around their sovereignty and borders, not to intrude upon their soil. The First Order has treaties that give benefits to the Mandalorians in return for the alliance and cooperation. You can visit Agamar to confirm this yourself if you like.
Onto the other matter, he could hardly care about what holdings were in the Unknown Region that were labeled Dizen. For there was a wide gape of other un-aligned planets and factions unknown to them that lied between his territories and hers. The Supreme Commander had no desire for Dizen's territories.
As for your personal territories, the First Order has no desire for them. They are far beyond our borders and thus we have no reason to even glance at them.
The Supreme Commander taps his finger lightly upon the table several times.
As your purpose is to prevent pointless bloodletting, you can plainly see that there won't be any senseless bloodshed. The First Order has friends among the Mandalorians and views them as such. My soldiers even occupy a world jointly with allied clans of Mandalore to show our friendship. A mere detachment compared to their army.
Nicademus did not even stop to speak as he leaned forward in his chair, keeping his eyes upon Aya.
In fact, the treaties granted to those Mandalorian clans that aligned with us give them were heavily in their favor. My faction supplies the means for these clans to rebuild, both militarily and economically, in exchange for their support and cooperation. Something I willingly gave, without even a hint of what the clans desired, when the last Mandalorians visited this world. Because a strong Mandalore is a valued benefit to a strong First Order and vice versa.
