The Sith Eternal

Utilizing a series of public faces, to hide their activities, the Sith Eternal employs capable and loyal Imperials to serve as 'warlords' in these parts of the Southern Outer Rim. The first among them was the Greater Roon Remnant, which was to become the model for future ones that followed. After the conquest of Ryloth came the Gaulus Command and with the integration of Eriadu, the Quintad Directive was established. To the greater galaxy, it appears to be an ever-changing tide of cooperative and rivaled Imperial warlords that seek to squabble over the remains of the once mighty Blackguard Imperium. In time though, these remnants will be merged together when the day comes that the 'Sith Empire' is re-established.


Greater Roon Remnant

The Imperial Remnant faction, known as Greater Roon and the Kilaeon Imperial Government of Roon, is the public face of the Sith Eternal, used to hide their activity in plain sight. Although, the Cloak of the Sith is a potent means of hiding, as it is said that Sith of the factions before, even after the death of Palpatine, continued to exist and rebuild within this mysterious region of the Outer Rim, the Imperialist creed of the Supreme Leader did bring with it followers and remnants among the Imperial society. Many these officers, soldiers, and more came from across the galaxy, those who had once followed Sinistra and Matar, who rebelled against Emperor Nicademus, and even served the Blackguard Imperium in more recent memories. This core of soldiers would be gathered around Doma Kilaeon, a competent leader that had been raised up by the Supreme Leader as Sovereign Admiral of this remnant. The soldiers and officers from factions before were re-educated and instilled with new founded loyalty and purpose. Through them, recruits both willing and forced, were turned into fanatics of the Greater Roon, or more specifically, the Sith Eternal. Many were even raised as children to join the ranks of Stormtroopers as its zealous soldiers.

Doma Kilaeon
Sovereign Admiral of Greater Roon



Doma Kilaeon is a native of Roon who had been raised by Sith and Imperial ideologies. Her family had served under Palpatine before and, like others, their fortunes ended with his death. She had sought to join the Blackguard Reborn, but found their Imperialist ideologies to be nothing more than empty promises. It was then, almost thirty years ago, that she was reached out by the shadowy cult that had formed on her homeworld. The Supreme Leader seduced her to his cause and raised Doma to be the Imperial leader needed one day. As such, when the Blackguard Imperium left Roon, High Inquisitor Hekat, along with troops under Doma, rose up and took control of the planet. Kilaeon was installed as Sovereign Admiral of Greater Roon and supreme commander of the Imperial Military that made up its armies and fleets. 

She is hardly a Pellaeon, or a Veers, or a Thrawn, but she is still respected for her authority and her capabilities. The Supreme Leader needed a puppet after all, but not an incompetent one. Kilaeon knows her role in this grand scheme. As such, she is among the loyalists of the Eternal that can be counted upon for her fervor and abilities.

- Maro Haren: Captain of the 'Stygian Star' and Minister of the Navy
- Gavarl Braji: General of the Roon Garrison Forces

Gaulus Command

In the weeks after the capture of the Ryloth system, a new warlord was propped up by the name of Bellan Mossk, self-proclaimed as Superior Commandant of Gaulus Command. The name of which came from the sector in which the Twi'lek homeworld is located. A pawn of the Dark Lord, Dragus, Bellan is a fierce promoter of enslavement and gains much coin from selling Twi'leks through his family's business which had ties to various Outer Rim markets. The son of an underground boss, Mossk got an Imperial education at the Eriaduan military institution, earning high marks for his abilities in command. Although, there is rumor that money helped speed that along. Eventually, he joined the Blackguard Imperium as a commander of a Stormtrooper unit. After its demise, he was found wandering until the Human male fell under the influence of the Sith Eternal. His ruthlessness caught attention and thus the Sith elevated him to the influential position of Warlord. From there, the Gaulus Command was founded.

Quintad Directive

Founded by the efforts and scheming of Darth Xitan, the Quintad Directive is the newly formed power of the Seswenna Sector. Utilizing the prestige of the Tarkin family, and their lucrative connections, agents of Xitan propped up the sympathetic Dash Tarkin, son of Olin Tarkin, who was a member of the Quintad, as High Marshal. The cousin branches of Dash helped secure the necessary means to ensure a swift coup over Eriadu. With the puppet at the head, the Sith Eternal claimed supreme control over the planet and its system within a week. With the industries and manpower of Eriadu within their possession, a great prize was seized by the Eternal. 

Dash Tarkin, however, is no slouch with being High Marshal. It isn't a job that has benefits since he intends to make Eriadu mighty once more. Utilizing the alliance with the Sith, Dash plans to revitalize the core tenets of Imperial conscription and training that had been so vital to the First Empire. With his new authority, he intends to build upon the industry and supply the most he can to the cause of the Sith.

High Marshal of the Quintad Directive

The Army of the Sith Eternal is a vast mixture that brings together the variety and diverse under a robust and flexible command structure. From the simple Stormtroopers, both recruit and veteran, to the creatures and spawns that come from laboratories and Sith magicians, all has come together to become the ground forces of an ever-expanding faction. At its heart, there are the veterans of the beginning, the formative center that saw the dawn of the Sith Eternal. However, due to the recent coup that saw the rise of the Supreme Leader, Valefor, there has been a restructuring and shift in the overall composition. Due to the efforts of the newly appointed Executor, new commanders have been tested and educated to replace those killed by being on the wrong side of the recent regime change. A dominance of droid soldiers has risen to replace the limited manpower of the Sith Eternal, thanks in part to the immense resources and Forge Worlds, like that of Hypori and Geonosis, that are churning out battle droids and war machines by the tens of thousands daily. In total, there are four main parts that make up the Sith-Imperial Army: the Organic, the Auxiliary, the Droids, and the Sithspawn.

The Organic Soldiery



The Sith Stormtrooper, or Eternal Trooper, is a key soldier among the army.

Utilizing propaganda and effective loyalist education created the basis of the Sith military through the creation of their own variant of Stormtrooper. Due to the small size of Roon's population, training was limited and recruitment was as well. Early on, the Stormtrooper was no better than a thug with a blaster rifle. They had a high casualty rate, yet a fervent loyalty to a fault towards the Sith cause. A lack of highly skilled officers was also a matter that caused the rather suicidal performance and poor efficiency of these Eternal troopers. In time, especially with the capture of Eriadu, which had a larger base of manpower and academic institutions to train officers, the Sith trooper became more effective and better trained. While still extremely loyal and, at times, thuggish with their actions, they excelled in recent campaigns such as on Sullust and Mustafar. Among them, there are not only the conscripted, but also the clone, albeit a minority reserved for the most elite squads and companies.

In recent times, however, they have become overshadowed by the presence of droids. This has caused the Sith trooper to be more ideal for elite units, specialized squads, and guarding the most important of facilities and complexes for the Sith Eternal. Despite this, they remain a prestigious presence within the Sith-Imperial Army.

The Mechanical Ranks



Separatist era droids have recently become a dominant presence within the ground forces.

Since the reopening of foundries on Hypori and Geonosis, the Forge Worlds have taken a leading role in providing cheap and effective machines for battle. For a time, there was a demand to reform the Sith military, causing a debate between clones, recruits, and droids to serve as the mainline soldier. Despite the debate falling into obscurity, the formalization of the Forge Worlds, and the creation of the Fabricator-General, caused battle droids and war machines to take a leading presence in the military. This is namely due to the fact that, while the Sith Eternal lacked numerous systems for manpower, they held systems that were rich in resources such as Sullust and Mustafar. Mining became a strong feature of the internal economy, resulting in refined metals for shipbuilding, weaponry, vehicles, and droids. Tactical droids have even begun taking positions in the military hierarchy.

A great number of Separatist era battle droids have augmented the Sith military, bringing about a dominating presence of war droids. Vast quantities are being presently used for garrison and mainstay military units to be the mainline soldier. There are those that certainly wish for a more organic army of loyalists, one cannot argue with the ease in which tens of thousands can be constructed and programmed within a shorter time frame.

The Many of the Auxilia



The Rishilings, a militarized Galand unit from Rishi, are among the numerous auxiliary units of the Sith military.

An untapped area of the Sith Eternal are the immense amount of subjugated races. While some are not truly noted as warriors, such as Sullustans, there are still a great number of collaborationist units that serve the Sith. These include Gamorrean warriors, Twi'lek dragoons, Tusken sharpshooters, Bith techcommandos, and Nightbrother fighters. Dathomir, Pzob, Ryloth, Tatooine, even from beyond, do many come to serve at the behest of these dark masters and find jobs beneath the banners of pro-Sith mercenaries, auxiliaries, and paramilitary groups. Their weaponry, tactics, and organization follow their cultural/traditional lines, ensuring that Sith units do have a flare for the unorthodox and unexpected.

A number of these units have even well known names, considering their careers and reputation. The aforementioned Rishilings are noted for their golden armor and red cloth appearance. Twi'lek Mountain Blurrgs are a rough terrain rider division, a number of companies which serve on various worlds. Tusken auxiliaries, such as the Grey (or Grave) Raiders, Bantha Bucellarii, and the Drab Sharpshooters, have been gaining reputations with the ongoing subjugation of Tatooine. Gamorrean shock troopers, especially the Pzob Warhammers and Waraxes of the Eye, have torn through the ranks of worlds before even the establishment of the Sith Eternal. =Future mention of Bith Techcommandos and Nightbrothers to come=

A better formalization of these units, in order to integrate them into the structure, was done by the Executor as the Sith military was rebuilt and reorganized for the new regime it now serves. While a lot of these units remain present on their respective homeworlds, detachments are brought up to join active operations and to lend aid to worlds that could utilize their expertise.

The Hordes of the Sithspawn



Sithspawn come in a wide variety, covering all manner of roles for the Sith military.

Utilizing the Spice Triangle as the basis of their criminal operations, the Sith Eternal has focused its main powerbase within the cosmic phenomena known as the Cloak of the Sith, namely within the Abrion Sector. With Roon as its capital, situated on the northern tip of the Spice Triangle, the faction has begun to expand little by little. It's first external gain was Rishi, which sits along the Manda Merchant Route, heading into the Mid Rim. Plans have been made for other conquests, with ambitions eyeing the planet of Ryloth, which would serve as a good acquisition for the slave and spice trade that it seeks to utilize in order to fund its war machine.

Roon - Abrion Sector, Outer Rim

Planetary Subforum
Planetary Guide

Roon is a planet located in the nearly impenetrable Cloak of the Sith. Known for its Roonstones, the planet was constantly sought after by treasure hunters for years.

Located in an impenetrable cosmic dust cloud ominously referred to as the Cloak of the Sith, easily navigable routes to Roon had long been lost. Even the most complete accounts, located in the Baobab Archives on Manda, were sketchy at best, and the lockdown of information following the rise of the Galactic Empire seemed to seal Roon's fate as a planet lost to history. This was fine to native Roonians; the planet was largely self-sufficient and plentiful in resources.

In most recent history, the planet and its system was a possession of the Blackguard Reborn and its later evolution, the Blackguard Imperium. A civil war, which ravaged the Sith empire, resulted in the planet's short-lived independence as within a few days, an Imperialist government was established by the unseen forces of the Sith Eternal. Beneath the guidance and leadership of their shadowy Supreme Leader, Roon has been revived as a fortress of the Sith Order, just like that of Ziost and Thule. To the outside eye, it appears to be an isolationist Imperial remnant faction.

Planetary Guide

Rishi is a planet located in the Abrion sector of the Outer Rim Territories, along the Manda Merchant Route. It was also the endpoint of the only well-traveled hyperlane into the Rishi Maze, the Zareca String. Rishi was the homeworld of the Rishii, a winged species, who lived in nests on the mountains of Rishi. In addition to the lush tropical terrain, Rishi's surface featured mountains, valleys, and swamps. Human and alien colonists lived in the deep valleys, while the Rishii lived in the high mountains. The planet was known for its rich fossil fuel resources, especially exonium.

The planet was captured, by Sith Eternal forces, under the command of the Sith Lord, Dragus, the Dark Apothecary of the Council of Seven. A lair was made here, for a time, during which the Sith conduct numerous experiments. Afterward, it was transformed into various purposes: a location for smugglers and pirates to meet with agents of the Eternal, a launching point for raids, a training world for Stormtroopers to professionalize them, and the homeworld of the Dark Missionaries, a new sub-department dedicated to spreading the word of the Three Emperors.

Ryloth - Gaulus Sector, Outer Rim

Planetary Subforum
Planetary Guide 

Ryloth, the second planet in the Ryloth system, possessed a thin, but breathable atmosphere. The planet was orbited by five moons, which had subtle tidal effects on the planet's liquid core and underground springs. It had little or no surface water except for patches of water ice on the night side. It is a planet of extremes: dry, rocky landscapes of deserts, mountain ranges with mist-covered peaks, shadowy valleys, alternated with snowy wastes, joined by lush temperate bands which concentrated much of its population.

It's native people, the Twi'leks, also called by the derogatory term of "Tail-heads", are a tenacious and tribal people who well known for the lekkus upon their heads. The natural grace and beauty of their females make them a popular target for slavers. Many a times, these people have been enslaved as a source of manpower for various mining and economic projects, like that of the Wookiees.

What started as a Blood Tithe raid ended with the fully occupation of the planet by the Sith Eternal. A raid, commanded by Dragus , the Dark Apothecary, would carry further after the seizure of Kala'unn. With its Clan Council's forfeiture of the planet, the system was brought under Imperial domination and Sith control. There are plans to utilize the natives for slave labor with the most potent being raised as Sith if they have proven loyalty and force sensitivity. In the aftermath, a second Imperial Warlord faction is raised called the Gaulus Command, under Superior Commandant Bellan Moss, an Imperial well-versed in the slave trade of the region.

Eriadu - Seswenna Sector, Outer Rim

Planetary Subforum
Planetary Guide

Eriadu has been the center of many Imperialist and Sith powers of the past; the Imperial Alliance, the Fourth Galactic Empire, the One Sith, the Blackguard Imperium, and so forth. Its industrial potential, combine with its location at the juncture of five hyperlanes, two of which are the prominent Rimma Trade Route and Hydian Way, make it ideal as a bastion from which to exert influence and grow power. Its population is highly Imperialized, thus naturally sympathetic to the causes of Imperials and Sith. Many of its citizens have served as Stormtroopers, administrators, attendants, governors and more throughout the tenure of those who planted their flags upon its soil.

In the recent events, that saw the collapse of the Blackguard Imperium, the Quintad re-established itself as the new power of the system. However, this was destined not to last as the Sith Eternal began to snake its way into their politics, gaining allies among the various families, notably, the Tarkins, the Mottis, and the Harros. Through the machinations of Xitan and his agents, the Quintad was toppled and a new government, sympathetic to the Sith, was established as the Quintad Directive. This was led by the newly risen High Marshal, Dash Tarkin, son of the family's patriarch, Olin. With the immense industrial might and a large population within their grasp, a new level of potential has been added to the Sith cause.

Kamino - Kamino Sector, Wild Space

Planetary Subforum
Planetary Guide

The mysterious and watery world of Kamino has had a most illustrious history, with marks of tragedy. The Kaminoan aliens are well known for their cloning technology which was rather advanced for its time at the dawn of the Clone Wars. Foreseeing the coming of a great war, the Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas secretly commissioned the creation of a clone army to help the Republic in its most dire hour. However, he was murdered by Count Dooku, an old friend and now apprentice of Darth Sidious, the heir to the legacy of Darth Bane. And so, the clone army was kept a secret till the Clone Wars erupted. Highly skilled and effective, the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic and, later, the early years of the Imperial Army, were considered the best soldiers in the galaxy. However, tragedy struck when the Kaminoans, sensing the lack of desire for the clones when the Galactic Empire was formed, schemed rebellion and were punished for their crimes.

After the fall of the Blackguard Imperium, Kamino became independent under a rather isolationist government. The Sith Eternal had interest in their clones, but it led to nowhere, despite their best efforts in securing a decent army of clones. In the end, it came down to the actions of Lord Dragus who saw the potential of Kamino as more than just simply a place to grow clones, given his interest in aquatic Sithspawn. And so, overnight, through his plots and schemes, Kamino fell to the Sith.

Planetary Guide

Originally known as Xo's Eye while under the Xim Empire, this planet is situated near a rather dangerous and lawless part of space, with the Hutt territories to its astral south and celestial bodies of the Maw within its neighborhood. It serves as a notorious prison world, but also as the home for the galaxy's largest glitterstim spice mining operation. During the First Galactic Empire, slave labor was extensively utilized. It is noted that there are a number of tombs and ruins, possibly of Sith origin, that dot its landscape.

At the behest of the ambitions of the Dark Apothecary, a contingent of Sith Eternal forces marched upon Kessel to claim its spice production in order to add to the Sith's already robust operations in the trade. The furthest possession of the Sith to date, it is viewed more as an outpost out of necessity.

A collection of systems have recently fallen under the category of Foundry World which supply weapons, droids, and vehicles to the Sith Eternal. The governorship of these worlds fall to the office of Fabricator-General, Valefor , who commands the assets and forces of Dark Forge, the mighty heart of Sith industry. Some worlds, such as Eriadu, could classify as technically being a part of Foundry Worlds, but the Dark Council seeks to prevent overpowering the Crimson Lord, despite Valefor having the backing of the Supreme Leader. These worlds are high in industry and have had their CIS era foundries reignited, which has not occurred since the fall of the Grand Confederacy. Vast legions of droids, immense hoards of material, and crates of weapons are churned out daily to re-arm and fortify the growing Sith Eternal military.

At present, the Foundry Worlds' headquarters is upon the world of Hypori.

Hypori - Ferra Sector, Outer Rim

Planetary Subforum
Planetary Guide

Hypori is a planet located in the Hypori system of the Ferra sector in the Outer Rim Territories. It was home to no sentient species, though it was host to windrails and massiffs. Its surface was covered in rocky landscapes and small oceans. After the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY, Hypori was transformed into a droid factory world by the Techno Union and Trade Federation, with its purpose being to manufacture battle droids for the upcoming Clone Wars.

Hypori saw a revival of its droid factories during its tenure as a world of the Grand Confederacy. After its fall, the planet remain unoccupied, but was frequented by scavengers, seeking to gain war materials left for profit or usage. Under forces, commanded by Valefor , the system was taken by the Sith Eternal so that its factories could be utilized to fuel its war machine. Due to this action, the Sith was granted the title "Fabricator-General of the Dark Forge" by the Supreme Leader as the planet's overseer.

Planetary Guide - To Be Updated

Geonosis, called Geonosia by its natives, is a ringed, rocky planet in the Outer Rim Territories. It is well known for its droid factories and violent gladiatorial gmaes as well as being the homeworld for the industrious insectoid species, the Geonosians. At the start of the Clone Wars, it served as the Confederacy of Independent Systems' first capital. Most of its industry and civilization exist in caves and underground due to the harsh environment of the surface.

In most recent history, it served as one of the major worlds of the now defunct Grand Confederacy, a neo-CIS state that had a number of territories in that section of the Outer Rim. After its fall, a faction known as the Organization claimed it for the same purpose as others desired: its industrial potential. However, at some point, the Organization fell into obscurity, which ensured the system did to till the arrival of the Fabricator-General and the Sith Eternal. Now, with it firmly under Sith control, its droid foundries have been reactivated to supply legions of battle droids for the future of the cause.
