-Embrace the Darkness: While not force senstive to a degree that would even earn them the rank on apprentice, the Unfaithful are carefully selected for their connection to the force. This conncetion does not allow them to command the force in any way, but they fight with the fury of the dark side, and with just that hint of luck that makes them stand out between common soldiers.
-For Blood and Glory: The Unfaithful desire nothing more then spilling blood to praise the Glory of the Dark Side. They will do everything it takes to win a fight, no matter how deranged or ruthless they have to be. Stories of Unfaithful eating the fallen to survive, or using bystanders as human shields are far from unheard.
-Last Man Standing: The Faith of the Unfaithful never fades, never termbles and never breaks, no matter the odds. Even if only one of them remains standing, these last warriors will continue to fight to take as many many with them as possible.
Weaknesses:
-Till death do us part: The Unfaithful fight to the last man, but that means they will never retreat and regroup. They embrace their own death, and consider it a shame to come out alive of a lost battle. Even if commanded back, the Unfaithful will not follow.
-The Madness: Some Unfaithful carry actual weapons (Like standart Vibroblades or blasters) into battle, but most refuse to do so. These warriors fight with everything, from their bare hands and teeth, to some random metal rode lying around. While a fight of the Unfaithful is quite unpleasant to watch, their madness and erratic combat behaviour leaves no room for any tactic.
-I am the Choosen One: Besides fighting their enemies, the Unfaithful are also known to fight themselves even during an ongoing engament. Whenever someone of them falls to believe that the force has meant their fate to be greater than those around them, they will go onto a killing spree to prove it.
- Description:
"Your Blood shall set us Free" - Battlecry of the Unfaithful
Whenever someone joins Abyss army, they get tested for a possible connection to the force. The Unfaithful are those that stand right on the edge, not senstive enough to truly command the force, but still so gifted that some part of them has touched it. While everyone with even a hint of true talent gets conscripted to become an dark acolyte, is handed a lightsaber and a black robe and used as a front line berserker under the command of their Prophet, the Unfaithful earn another, very special kind of training.
They get told that their talents far overshadows those of the common acolytes, they get told that their Prophet has seen their fate and its greatness, they get told that the Dark Side has choosen them as their champions. Then they get told that all they have to do to claim their fate is to spill enough blood for the glory of the darkness, and they will ascend to ultimate power.
Their ideology is little more then a perversion of the sith code. They believe in strenght, and that their strenght will free them from the chains that hold them. They get taught how to channel their rage and how to embrace their hate until only madness remains. At the end of their path neither greatness nor salavation would await them, but they never make it that far, embracing not only darkness and glory, but the death on the battlefield.
Then they get thrown into battle, first against each other, then against the enemy. Within the ranks of the Unfaithful you are a nobody until you spilled enough blood to prove your dedication to your peers. Even then there are no friends, no allies, only brothers and sister waiting to push a dagger into someones back to show their willingness to bring more glory to the darkness then anyone else.
