FORCE POWERS:
- Ionize: With his power in the force, and technological form, Akhuul can use his power to shut down droids and technology, for at least a period of time, at will.
- Force Lightening: A classic move of the Sith, though in his current form, Akhuul's usage of it is more technologically conducted than before as a means to compensate for the loss of spirit.
- Limited Telekinesis: After the transfer to his body, his ability to manipulate objects with his mind has decreased, yet his power in the force allows him to still do it if he exerts himself enough
- Can do basic attacks through telekinetic abilities such as force choke, force grip, etc.
- Cannot sustain basic attacks through telekinesis for long periods of time without exerting his spirit to a heavily weakened level
- Transfer Essence: The very way he has become his current form; Akhuul can even transfer his spirt and consciousness into another android body, as long as he is connected to the network of Sautra Vokh, upon taking a blow that would destroy his body beyond repair and-or strip his spirit from his body.
- Sith Alchemy: In order to manipulate his Durumium body, the usage of Sith Alchemical rituals to heal any physical wounds to his android form would requrie the usage of it. Also, the practice of forging and shaping Durumium requires a level of Sith Alchemy to be used in order to use the force to manipulate the ore and metal. Due to his discovery and effort to utilize it, Akhuul's understanding of Sith Alchemy has become noteworthy in terms of the usage of Durumium.
- Mechu-deru: As a result of becoming mechanical, and integrated into the network of Satura Vokh, Akhuul can interface with his technology at will through the force. He is then attempting to expand that to any technology he finds in the future.
- Pyrokinesis: Allbeit more mechanical than force powered, he still maintains this ability from his times as an organic being. However, it is more mechanically based now to compensate for his slight loss in spirit.

APPEARANCE:
In his current form, Akhuul looks like a metallic skeleton adorned with regal ornaments of the ancient Sith. His posture is always perfect, while his adornments and elements of apparel seem to blend with his body. His crown comes up from his temples, and crescents over his head, a cape of the metal his body is made of drapes from his shoulders as well as a girdle draping between his legs. His chest is marked with his personal glyph, while his shoulders are adorned in pauldrons marked by Sith glyphs. Such markings glow when he uses his force abilities. His face then is as skeletal looking as the rest of his body, while his eyes look like burning coals in their mechanical sockets, and his forehead is glyphed similarly to his shoulders.
BIOGRAPHY:
Born on Korriban during the ages of the ancient Sith Empire, Akhuul Sautra was from a family of generals in one of the Sith warlords’ armies. The times of his youth were marked with constant battle and strife with the constant vying for power each warlord conducted. He hardly knew his father as he was called to the front more often than being home. Most of his upbringing was in a camp for soldiers as well. He was trained to be a soldier among the legions commanded by his warlord since he was old enough to hold a sword. Yet, when he was 13, his life changed when one of the force using commanders of his lord sensed the force within him stronger than others. It was then he was to be trained differently. It was no longer his life’s purpose to follow orders, but to give them to whoever was beneath him. His ascension to being a Lord of the Sith began that day.
He was then trained in using the force against enemies of his lord. His training as a normal soldier allowed him to take to the martial aspect of his new role very well as a Sith warrior, but the force was new. He saw it as a gateway to power, and yearned to harness it. His ambition was great, even compared to the others training alongside him as mere acolytes. Eventually, he was ready for his trials to truly become a wielder of the force under the Sith teachings. His burgeoning power in the force was put to the test, and he passed. Eventually, it came to test his killer instinct. Each of the acolytes were paired up to hunt each other down, and kill them in the open wilderness on Korriban. It took him nearly a year to track down his appointed enemy. For that time he was tracking him, he loathed them. He became a predator stalking prey rather than an initiate going through trials. His target was found starving and weak in a cave. It was hardly the glorious kill he hoped for while seething over this moment. In rage, he cut upart the other acolyte with his blade. He then took the head to his instructor, and was initiated upon his return. A moment he looks back on very fondly.
As the years went on, his training grew more rigorous, as at that point he was instructed to fight on the battlefields with the soldiers and higher trained force users. Many of his peers died in the wars, but it gave him opportunities to weaponize his rage on living enemies worthy of effort. He lost count of how many were killed by him in those days, as the wars never seemed to end. What he remembers best though, is when the warlord he spent his whole life fighting for chose him to be his next apprentice. He spent the time reading the old texts of the Sith ways, continued building up his power in the force, and maintained his skill with a blade. However, he started to observe the way of Sith politics. He learned of the schemes employed by others at court. He learned he must always be on his toes to simply survive the days. He had to grow in power as soon as he could to gain favor and more power within the court.
He then began plotting against a few of the other apprentices. All were his seniors, and expected little of him. However, he observed what made them as they were. Their weaknesses he could exploit, and their strengths to avoid being used against him. Eventually, “accidents” began to occur with the other apprentices. Some would end up disappearing on the battlefield, while others disappeared at the lord’s estate. All the while, Akhuul rose to power and became next in line to take his lord’s title upon his death. Akhuul knew that would be his next step. He had to kill his master to rule. It was the only way he saw his path to ruling lead. It would be years, but eventually he managed to pull it off. He wanted to do it personally though. He felt that would make him truly seize power if he took it himself. One night, he snuck into his master’s chambers of the estate. It seemed too easy. He then snuck to his master’s bed while he slept, which the old Sith Lord should have sensed, yet did nothing to stop. Then, it was a quick stabbing of the throat later when Akhuul realized his master wanted to die, and let it happen. While Akhuul relished in his personal seizing of power, his master gargled laughter beneath Akhuul’s hand.
As a Sith Lord, Akhuul moved the estate he inherited to a world on the fringes of the Sith Empire at the time. It was a small world ignored by the other lords, but, upon moving there, Akhuul found a metal that was responsive to the force. He began his plan of forever ruling as a Sith Lord. Many before him tried to cheat death, and achieve immortality. However, he found a method that surely would beat them all. The planet was turned into a laboratory and a mining center while his estate was constructed on the world as well. He called it Sautra Vokh. He obtained a legion of slaves to mine the metal, and construct the massive station to act as his seat of power filled with laboratories, throne rooms, housing "crypts", and various other rooms made to house the supporting mechanisms for the new Sautra Vokh. Eventually, his master plan was somewhat achieved. The metal found was forged into android-like bodies. Akhuul’s was the first, then his appointed apprentices (who he chose for their compliance rather than ambition), then his army’s officers, and eventually a body was constructed for every soldier and slave of his estate. The metal was infused into their weapons, their tools, the ships constructed for the estate, the structure of the station of Sautra Vokh as well. His ambitions were coming to a head. His rule will be eternal for as much as he could see. His efforts were surprisingly ignored by the other Lords of the Sith, which pleased Akhuul.
What surprised him more, was how the Dark Lord of the Sith, Marka Ragnos, did not seem to notice much or interfere with what he was doing as well. The ruler of the empire led the ancient Sith into a golden age, which Akhuul observed the policy made and agreed very much with the method of Ragnos’ rulership. However, as the death of Marka Ragnos took place, Akhuul’s nightmare came to be. Naga Sadau, and his more bloodthirsty supporters gained control over the empire. Akhuul began to join the side of Ludo Kressh, which was more conservative and intended to maintain the state of the empire that Ragnos had achieved. However, after starting to unveil his nature for the Sith power struggle, both sides found him to be a potential threat and launched a combined assault towards Sautra Vokh. As the other lords of the Sith began to send their forces in the direction of Sautra Vokh, Akhuul prepared for a retreat using the World Engine that he had the new Sautra Vokh equipped with. All his ships were forced to to be stored in the large storage bays within the station to avoid them being blasted apart by his rivals. Then, he employed the the World Engine, which was secret to all outside of his estate, to complete his retreat from the Sith Empire’s space. The World Engine was a primitive hyper-drive that had the ability to move the station of Sautra Vokh throughout space. Before the other lord’s of the Sith could reach Sautra Vokh’s system, the station was gone without much of a trace, and the remnants of what was originally known as Sautra Vokh was nothing but an asteroid belt in the derelect system. Akhuul was then expunged from the records under Sadau’s orders while Akhuul himself employed the bodily transfer after the planet miraculously made the jump to another system on the edge of the galaxy. Those that still knew of him from that time though, regarded him as if he had the planet self destruct the planet. However, Akhuul's paranoia and knowledge of the Sith operations from his time in the empire reinforced his belief that secret hunts from his rivals would be sent out into the void to search for him to put down his potential threat to their domains.
Through ritual, and the technology produced by his scientists, the consciousnesses of all who were working for his estate were downloaded into the bodies, while their spirits were housed within the bodies as part of the ritual of Sith sorcery. They all awoke to having new forms, yet realizing something unexpected. They all lost part of their force power by losing parts of their spirits in the transfer. Their new forms were not as connected as organic beings were, and Akhuul felt the loss. However, it was done, and they were all immortal. They were also all loyal to Akhuul. Unbeknownst to the others, there was a restraining protocol put in place with the downloading of consciousnesses keeping anyone in these forms from betraying Akhuul. He would forever rule Sautra Vokh.
In order to further avoid detection, he ordered the soldiers, slaves, and scientists to slumber in the complexes built underground on the planet to sleep away their persecutor’s hunt. He then had his apprentices put their new bodies to sleep, while their spirits patrolled the network of technology on Sautra Vokh to maintain the construction that took place on the world, and monitor any incoming threats. Then, Akhuul, did the same with his spirit in the network, but his duty was different. He moved Sautra Vokh again to the very edge of the galaxy and used his willpower to put up a planetary force mask on the world, to keep any of the future Sith hunters, Jedi invaders, or belligerent outsiders in general from seeing the world. In this time, Akhuul watched the galaxy while on his vigilance. He watched as the Sith Empire would rise and fall numerous times, as the Galactic Republic would do similarly, and as wars raged across the galaxy. Yet, one thing stuck to him. The dark side was never able to rule. Those of the light would always join forces to remove it like a cancer. He then realized the dark side was not meant to rule. It was meant to linger. It always thrived when not in charge of planets. It expanded when not constrained to borders with galactic powers. It always won when not having to play the games of politics those of the light had to. After so long of merely watching, and often lapsing in attention out of boredom, he realized he should make an effort to preserve the history of the Sith he could at that point. He had to take action to some capacity, but he was still in no position to be seen. His goal now is not to rule, but to keep the dark side lingering in the galaxy. To preserve the Sith ways forever as he forever rules Sautra Vokh on the edge of the void.
He was then trained in using the force against enemies of his lord. His training as a normal soldier allowed him to take to the martial aspect of his new role very well as a Sith warrior, but the force was new.
