Name: Darth Erebus
Loyalties: Ancient Erebus Imperium(No true relation to the shadow dynasty subfaction other than name and same author(Me))
Role: creating a character that I can use for solo training and further character development
Development Threads: none as of yet. that can be changed if needed.
Age: 165
Species: Human
Force-Sensitive: yes. Long living sith lord, who is being kept alive by equal parts science and his aptitude with the force
Appearance: having been alive well longer than the average human due to his darkside corruption, Lord Erebus has the
appearance of a living corpse.
Personality: disgustingly superior and arrogant. quick to anger and slow to praise, Lord Erebus was/is despised by his apprentices for his harsh training, obvious disregard for their well-being, constant battering and put downs, and his habit of making it obvious that he views them as disposable.
Though hated by all who trained under him Darth Erebus was also in the same breath revered for his power and knowledge.
Weapon of Choice: once a great duelist in his youth. Now however his only true weapon is the force.
Wealth: very well off, no more so than your typical Sith Lord, but he does not struggle for credits. Possesses a lavish estate, filled with spoils of conquest earned over a century of war and blood letting across the galaxy.
Combat Function: extremely adept at force powers having spent the last few decades with declining physical function. Was once an extremely accomplished saber duelist but is no longer physically able to fight that way. Main source of combat would be the force (Ex. Fear, insanity, telekinesis, lightning…ect.)*
Strengths and weaknesses:
+advanced skill with force power
+long wealth of knowledge
+/- former accomplished duelist. Can no longer practically use a saber.
-advancing age and dark side corruption have left him basically a walking corpse
-physical strength is practically non-existent
-age and the dark side have driven him mad
-needs constant up keep by his team of medical droids
-requires a constant flow of blood to his veins from a machine he is hooked up to twenty-four/seven
[*disclaimer: not intended for combat use]
Skills:
In his youth was a master duelist who was most skilled at forms II & VI
Force powers:
Doppelganger
Battle meditation
Force drain
Drain life
Force insanity
Lightning
Telekinesis
Force plague
Force wound(and its variations)
Drain knowledge
Notable Possessions: had a personal holocon which was stolen and subsequently lost. Four HK-Droids, four protocol droids, four medical droids that live on the estate with him and are programmed to keep him alive.
Other Notes:
Darth Erebus was born Kravenus Vicktori on a nameless planet in the outer rim to parents who were more than happy to see the boy taken away when his force aptitude was discovered by a Sith who operated in the area.
Young Kravenus quickly stood out in the Sith academy. Showing a fierce desire to be the best. Routinely he would impress his instructors with his knowledge of history and understanding of the force. His greatest skill however at the time was his skill with a light saber, countless Sith initiates found themselves crippled or worse at the end of a duel with Kravenus and it did not take long before he was chosen to apprentice one of the oldest and most powerful lords of the age.
For two decades Kravenus learned all his master had to teach, seen all his master could show. For two decades he bathed in blood and knowledge, putting entire worlds to the sword and relishing in every moment. For two decades they made their small part of the galaxy tremble and finally Kravenus was strong enough to do what all Sith eventually should. He slay his master and took the name Darth Erebus claiming himself lord of shadow and head of a new empire the eponymously titled “Erebus Imperium”. the men who followed his master now followed him and immediately they made plans to expand their empire.
(A young Kravenus soon after killing his master.)
Half a century passed as the newly christened Darth Erebus consolidated his power. As every Sith must he took an apprentice. Yeela Zorran and young woman at the academy caught his eye and for years he gave he his knowledge, but unlike his master before him, he did not indulge his apprentices potential instead he opted to put her through only the kind of a hell a mind like his could come up with. Even by Sith training standards the woman was by all accounts tortured more than tutored. Regardless of the humanity of the training Yeela flourished, he power was undeniable and Kravenus knew one day she would become a worthy successor.
(Darth Erebus and his first apprentice)
(Darth Erebus discovering Gerard)
Things changed for the pair of Sith when Kravenus discovered a slave with a connection to the force unlike any other he had felt before. He took this new student under his wing and began to train both Yeela and the slave, Gerard at the same time, treating both with contempt along the way. Perhaps foolishly he did not anticipate the two choosing to pool their power and attempt to rise up against him. After a few years they did just that and in their failed coup Kravenus was forced to put down Yeela. Gerard escaped though not permanently.
(Darth Erebus after discovering his apprentices treachery)
(Gerard returns)
Over the next few years the Imperium tore itself apart as many warriors left to join Gerard and escape from under the cruel and hard rule of Kravenus who had grown more and more unstable over the decades. Finally the civil war culminated in a duel between the two darksiders which saw Kravenus emerge victorious but disenfranchised. No longer did he seek to expand his borders or maintain his empire at all. The war had cost him everything. His apprentices, the future of the Imperium were dead at his hands, his men had all but abandoned him. Having once vowed to make the galaxy burn in the name of the Erebus Imperium, he now vowed only to see it rise again from the ashes. He retreated into his estate and began to experiment with the force. First on his servants and soldiers that remained loyal to him and then finally when the bodies were no longer available and his experiments had evolved as far as they could he used what he learned on himself.
A mixture of science and the force has kept him alive far beyond natural means as he sits in his home, no longer able to wield his sith swords or don his armor to advance his purpose. He awaits the day a worthy apprentice seeks him out so he may see the Erebus Imperium continue in the hands of another. That desire alone fuels his will to live. It is undetermined whether that day will ever come or how many more he has left.
