Personal Information:
Name: Reyven Samoth
Title(s): Current: Darth Sanctis, Prophet of Kessel, Grand Lord of the Tribe
Past: Darth Astus, High Priest of Truth, Horseman of Famine, Accoladed One, Darth Vanis
Current Rank: Master
Age: Spirit: 940 Body: 20
Species: Human
Home World: Onderon
Gender: Male
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 190 lbs.
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Red
Faction: The Sith Empire
Force User: ...Yes?
Weaknesses:
Vampirism causes his mind to be clouded by hunger from time to time.
His strength is not anything of note, and his dependance on the crushgaunts for hand-to-hand combat leaves him at a disadvantage if ever without them.
Description:
The only wear on the body is from the rigors of taking on a spirit so heavily tainted by the darkside. Very pale flesh, crimson eyes ringed with gold and long black hair. On whole his features are very sharp. His body is no longer frail and withered by age and corruption. His attire has changed to suit his bulkier frame, giving him slightly more armor underneath his cloak. He now wears light armor over black robes beneath a crimson cloak.

Personality:
Proud, thoughtful, and practical. He's not one to fly off the handle when there is something to be gained by keeping his focus. He also enjoys the company of those with an even level of thought, not much caring for those only interested in brute force. He knows more how to harness his hate with calm focus rather than letting it overtake him. Although certain practices are starting to wear at his mind. He finds himself viewing Force users as the natural evolution of the galaxy and that only through freedom to grow naturally can the vision of the Sith'ari come to pass.
Weapons:
-Crushgaunts
-Sith Tremor Swords
-Sith Sword
-Fury
-Pain
-Lightsabers(After years of tinkering, all have been worked to have bio-readers to toggle the ability to turn on and off):
-Dual-phase, electrum-plated lightsaber(silver blade)
-Dual-phase lightsaber(black blade)
-Electrum-plated, short hilt lightsabers(red and purple blades)
-Phrik hilt, dual-blade lightsaber(black-white blades)
Fighting styles:
He has learned many lightsaber forms, though prefers to use the Force as a weapon. He has learned to make himself invisible in presence of the Force and physically through the Force. He has knowledge of some Sith Alchemy and Sorcery, as well as dark healing arts. Though he prides himself most on his Force 'vampirism'. He has the ability to take and use the energies around him, both of the Force and of life, heat, and so on, to repurpose it to his own ends.
Ships:
-Fury-class Sith transport (Equipped with stygium-crystal cloaking system.)
History:
Raised on Onderon, he was exposed to many tales of the distant past. Raised by his grandparents, due to his parents' deaths in a freighter explosion, he was told of long-ago wars in Onderon's history. He was particularly interested in the stories of the Mandalorian Wars and of the dark Jedi known as the Sith that ruled over the planet in the past. Battle interested him greatly, and the tactics used by the fallen Jedi to defeat the Mandalorians fascinated him. He began to study the ways of these people. He felt the Jedi, who had been reluctant to help the ancient Republic, were merely weak, and that's why they would not fight. He resolved that he would never let himself be as weak as they were, and that he would fight for what he felt was right with all he had, and that he wouldn't let himself be restricted by the teachings of the Jedi.
He visited the moon of Dxun, having heard of an ancient temple that existed there. He scoured the moon, finding many of the old Mandalorian chaches, recovering old equipment from them. Among these were a set of Mandalorian crushgaunts, which he found useful in combat. He came across the temple, which was in actuality an ancient Sith tomb, and investigated it thoroughly. Inside he found two old Sith tremor swords, which he took and repaired in his free time, along with some damaged Sith holocrons, through which he learned some of the more basic philosophies of the Sith as well as lightsaber techniques. He took time training and studying these whenever he had the chance.
The whole time he had no idea he was sensitive to the Force. He only knew that he had what he considered 'heightened senses and reflexes' that allowed him to take to the training easily. He grew frustrated with the lack of learning materials available on the planet and moon, and, once his grandparents had passed, decided to head out on his own to learn as much as he could about his interests, now having no real ties to the planet that would hold him back. His travels would eventually lead him to the planet mentioned in some of the Sith records he came across, known as Ziost. Following his training and knighting under Anubis Starkiller on Ziost, and the subsequent forced 'migration' of the Sith from the planet, he remained with them and trained at the temple on Korriban. Actions taken by the Sith on Byss lead him to come upon a copy of the Dark Side Compendium, which he took for further study.
After the events there, he kept mostly to himself and his studies. The only thing that changed this was a break-in to his chambers on Korriban by Luna Marzullo, which lead to the two being married, him having two children, and access to the Marzullo family resources. It also caused him to take a Star Destroyer to house himself and his experiments to prevent further intrusions of the sort.
However, what knowledge he did have access to wasn't enough for him anymore. He sought out Kith Verloren, Malice Draclau, and Zoe Marzullo to learn what they had to teach. In the catacombs on Korriban, he learned the methods needed to cloak himself in the Force from the ghost of Kith. On his now-modified ship he learned Sith Alchemy from Malice. From Zoe he learned to manipulate Force and life energies and bring them under his own control to do with as he pleased. Soon after gaining this knowledge he took his ship and headed into less-traveled space on the outer-rim, leaving behind his family and focusing on his studies.
He returned almost six years later to find the Sith had split, his wife having joined the 'cult' of the Witches of Dathomir. He has yet to find out what has happened to his children. He was present for two attacks on the Sith Temple on Coruscant, the second of which almost resulted in his death and his body being heavily scarred by burns. He joined with a group who made a failed attempt to start the Regnum again, becoming the Horseman of Famine and vessel for the spirit of Famine. However, in an attack on Dromund Kaas, his wife sacrificed herself to summon a 'demon' for the Witches. In that same battle he allowed himself to become the conduit for the dead spirits of the Dark Temple, which had been destroyed.
One of the spirits lead him to an isolated asteroid housing a complex known as the Foundry. There he was told of the Empire of the past and that there might still be a leader left alive from that era. The Foundry was modified to produce fleets and weapons of the old Empire, and he met with the would-be Emperor there. The spirit, a servant of the 'Emperor' from long ago, helped convince Reyven, who was still outraged by the decision to share Dromund Kass with the Witches, to try and bring the rest of the Council under his sway. In the resulting Civil War, he was cast out of the order for a time. He returned to the Foundry to report his failure. The 'Emperor' and his servant tried to break Reyven so that his body could serve as a vessel for only the 'Emperor'. In the resulting struggle, Reyven struck him down and the collective spirits within him destroyed his servant.
Free of the influence of the crazed servant, he returned to the Sith Council in an attempt to form a more united front for the Sith. In return, he was granted a position on the Council and placed in charge of the religious Pillar of Truth for the Sith. He began work and soon reconstructed the Dark Temple beneath the Citadel on Dromund Kaas to serve as a base of operations for his 'cult'.
During a war on Naboo, three Jedi Masters used a Wall of Light to sever his connection to the Force. In doing so he forced the bulk of his consciousness into Chaos with the spirit of Famine to maintain his power. The shell left behind carried on his work as Darth Vanis, a beast much like Darth Nihilus that concerned itself only with consuming the vastness of the Force to fill the void that had been left inside him.
However, this body was not long for the galaxy and was slain, reuniting the two halves of the whole, and Reyven's spirit was left to wander Chaos. His mind sorted through things and watched the galaxy go through countless more wars and wind up being destroyed. All he had struggled to build was ruined in his absence. As he watched the slow struggle to rebuild he found himself growing restless and hateful with the slow rebirth of the galaxy. He broke free of Chaos' bonds and convinced a young Jedi to aid him, eventually warping the padawan to his own ends and possessing him while he began work on finding his new body.
He managed to find the wreckage of his lab ship on an isolated planet, bringing a clone form out of storage and transferring his essence into it. With that he went on to recover his equipment, reforge new armor, and take his shuttle out of the wreckage and head off into the galaxy once more, the combined manifestation of Reyven and the ancient Sith spirit.
He spent some time wandering the wastelands before settling upon a location to begin work on renovating a temple and turning it into a base of operations, spreading his influence across the planet and using the spice mines and factories to bolster his income from his ties to Onderon-based shipping companies, funneling funds into work on his ship at Kuat. Meanwhile he opened himself up as a prophet to Force Users disillusioned with the Jedi and Empire, offering them an alternative.
As his time on Kessel grew, he began making frequent trips to The Maw, searching for the Pool of Knowledge, as well as to Kesh to bring about the rise of the Lost Tribe of the Sith.

The Prophet of Kessel
With his separation from the Empire and consumption of the spirits housed in his temple beneath the Citadel, he made his way out of Sith space to process his new found power and focus on controlling the knowledge and strengths of the various Sith he'd taken into his own form. His travels lead him to Kessel, seeking out the various temples built on the surface of the barren, misshapen planet.He spent some time wandering the wastelands before settling upon a location to begin work on renovating a temple and turning it into a base of operations, spreading his influence across the planet and using the spice mines and factories to bolster his income from his ties to Onderon-based shipping companies, funneling funds into work on his ship at Kuat.

As his time on Kessel grew, he began making frequent trips to The Maw, searching for the Pool of Knowledge, as well as to Kesh to bring about the rise of the Lost Tribe of the Sith.
Grand Lord of the Lost Tribe
Spending time on Kesh, he began reworking the groups there towards the recreation of the Lost Tribe, attempting to unify leaders and create another ruling class to keep order in their corner of the galaxy, and eventually spread beyond. Allowing the spirits to spread and roam the temple he'd erected there, he was able to focus on this task more clearly. He trained a few apprentices, but none maintained a presence there for long. He would have to track down more substantial recruits.KILLS:
