"I am not the same Jedi as I was before. I am stronger. More powerful."
"You may talk like the Sith that you just buried, but you are still a Jedi. A Knight of the Republic you may not be. Yet you are still You."
-- Ella Nova in discussion with the Nomad inside A City Lost to Time after the cremation of Darth Ayra the Afflicted.
Alicia Drey, otherwise known as Ella Nova, was a Force-sensitive human female who served the Old Republic as a Jedi Knight during the height of the One Sith Wars. Later, after the Republic were conquered by the One Sith, Nova travelled to Coruscant on board the Sochi Ru (named after her Jedi Master) to find and capture the Dark Lord of the Sith:

After 822 days of captivity at the hands of Carnifex, Nova was later freed from her prison by the Sun Guards on Sojourn after their Sith Master--

The attempt did, however, turn Nova over to the Dark side of the Force. After falling over to the dark side Ella agreed to join her new Sith Master in their search for a cure to the Orbalisk infection. There Nova told Darth Ayra about Childhood: an anomaly found near Nespis VIII that was said to cure the sick and infected. Together the Dark Lord and the Dark Jedi would spend sometime together within the anomaly as Ayra desperately searched for a cure. There they would translate some of the hieroglyphs found within the Necropolis which directed them to the Deep Core world of Kalist VI where the mysterious Humanoids known as the Builders were said to have built an entire city and who were thought have also been responsible for the construction of the Childhood satellite.
There they discovered A City Lost to Time in a state of ruin and disrepair with none of the Builders in sight. As Nova went to explore the abandoned city for answers Darth Ayra would focus her last days into the creation of a Sith Holocron where she recorded all her powers, knowledge and beliefs about the Dark side of the Force. Meanwhile, her apprentice discovered a man known only to them as the Nomad. By the time the two of them returned to Darth Ayra they found her deceased within a tower in the centre of the city and the Sith Holocron that she had constructed before she had died.
After cremating the Dark Lord of the Sith Nova begun her plot to destroy

Later Nova would use her credentials as a Senator to join A Summit of Governments in an attempt to ruin the peace talks between the dignitaries present and frame the Sith Order for an attack on the meeting. However, before she could proceed with her plot,


Captured by

Before the turn of the ninth century the Imperial Despot



During their mission to save Sahar from the Alliance the Dark Imperials freed other dissidents serving prison time for their crimes and recruited them into the Dark Empire. Among them was Ella Nova: the former Knight of the Old Republic who had been imprisoned for crimes against the Galactic Alliance almost fifty years ago. There Nova begun impersonating her former Sith Master and begun calling herself Darth Ayra while adopting her alias Alicia Drey for herself.
Under the disguise of the late Dark Lord Nova joined the Dark Empire in their offensive against the Galactic Alliance and invaded the Jedi homeworld of Tython therefore sparking a successor conflict to the Second Hyperspace War colloquially known as the
C o r e W a r s: a conflict which saw the Dark Empire launch an daring attack on the Core Worlds and successfully annex several star systems away from the Alliance. During the Battle of Tython Nova found Vulpesen: the same man who had captured her fifty years ago and consequentially led to her half-century of imprisonment in cryostasis. After losing her Lightsaber duel Nova retreated and resurfaced on Lianna where she met with

Adopting the business persona first worn by Darth Ayra fifty years ago Nova (as Alicia Drey) begun meeting with dignitaries from across the Galaxy in order to create arrangements that would give her influence with her new partners. It was during the Second Galactic Economic Conference that Nova would make contact with

There she would use her position within the NISB to begin manipulating both Casteban and his son

During the Convocation of Sojourn the new Staff Director revealed the existence of the Order of the Sith Lords to

To begin hostilities between the Empire of the Lost and the Kainite (using her new powers as head of the New Imperial Security Bureau) Drey established the NISB's position on Felucia: a planet located just a few lightyears away from the Stygian Caldera and a place that she knew to be holding Sith secrets. Skirmishes begun breaking out between the NISB and another sect within the Sith Order known as the Tsis'Kaar. These little events sparked a greater one.
In Darkest Jungle the forces of the Kainite and Sith Order engaged in a battle against the Empire of the Lost which resulted in Felucia being annexed by the Imperials. Under the cover of battle Director Drey met with the Lord of the Tsis'Kaar,

Here the Fifth Wing infiltrated the New Imperial Security Bureau and it's Imperial Immortals as well as the other branches which made up the Empire of the Lost's organisational and military structures. Simultaneously Drey had effectively infiltrated the ranks of the Tsis'Kaar and used this to her advantage to attend a war cabinet convened by the Corpse Emperor,


During the war council meeting Drey made her presence known by attempting to dissuade the Sith into attacking the Empire of the Lost and to focus their aggression upon the Galactic Alliance. This was a mistake as it, in turn, drew the attention of the congregated Sith Lords and the Corpse Emperor, who used his esoteric abilities to determine her location and identity. This-- combined with the hostilities which saw Felucia annexed by the Empire-- led to the Sith Order invading the Imperial occupied world of Tion.
In conjunction with the Kainite,

With the Sith Holy Worlds secured from the threat of Imperial invasion (now that there were several star systems in between the Empire of the Lost and the Stygian Caldera now) the Dark Lord of the Kainite,

During the Siege of Tion the Corpse Emperor not only took Tion but also exposed Director Drey as a spy for the Dark Empire whom had infiltrated the Empire of the Lost using evidence provided by the Trade Federation of Planets. In the aftermath of the battle the Imperial Ruling Council convened a trial on Lianna to try the Director for acts of sedition, and treason against the Empire. After being defended by

The Direct Surveillance of Domestic Threats, which was created to help operatives from the Tsis'Kaar to infiltrate the Empire of the Lost, is still in use today. During the Rim War: Revenge of the Empire the Tionese warrior


The Imperial Immortals is special task force which works for the New Imperial Security Bureau and served under Director Drey during her team as the Head of the NISB. It is still active despite many of it's members belonging to the Fifth Wing. Despite her attempts to expose the Order of the Sith Lords before her death at the hands of Darth Malum the Rule of Two continues to persist, and survive in the shadows, influencing events which affect the Empire of the Lost, and the Sith Order, of which the Fifth Wing is their plot to destroy the Sith.

The company also saw the acquisition of the Doonium Mines of Lothal which facilitated the mineral Doonium coming into supply and demand in the Empire: an important resource in the use of constructing Star Destroyers. These mines were later acquired by

Personality and Beliefs.
"I have freed you. Better than that I am too sick to stop you from leaving. Yet you are still here. Why haven't you left me?"
"Both of us have been killed in our own way, Ayra. The least I can do is make it hurt a little less before you pass on."
"Will you avenge Us?"
"Of course, master."
-- Darth Ayra and Ella Nova's conversation on Childhood.
Sometime in the 830s Ella Nova was recruited into the ranks of the Jedi Order on the planet Coruscant. Here, she was taught about the Light side of the Force, and the Jedi Code, first by a Jedi Master called Carn Dista, and later when she was taken as a Padawan learner by Sochi Ru. As a Knight of the Old Republic she was a believer and defender of democracy, as well as the rule, and law of the then Galactic Republic, before it was conquered and destroyed by the One Sith.
After turning to the Dark side of the Force Ella lost her belief in the Jedi Code, and in the Light side of the Force. She begun to adopt the principles of the dark side and used them to create cunning plans, schemes and plots which resulted in the destruction of an entire planet, and two galactic powers entering into conflict with one another. This belief in the dark side also allowed her to infiltrate several organisations within the Empire of the Lost, Dark Empire and the Sith Order.
Although she impersonated the Dark Lord of the Sith,
