Welcome to the Jungle (Ossus)

Silently observing the frascas, Daxton stood as still as immobile statue. To any who observed him, he seemed he was hardly even breathing. He did not speak, nor did he even acknowledge the presence of his former apprentice when he joined their group. He had his orders and it came from the very top, nor did he have any need to explain himself to anyone. While he waited, he suffused himself with as much Dark Side Energy as he could handle. The orbalisks attached to his body were writhing in anticipation as they feed on the surplus power, ever hungry for more. Patiently he waited for the signal from Sith Mistress Valkner, a single sign was all he needed before he unleashed his full fury on the hapless natives.
 

Sirella Valkner

Because I'm a plant.
Sirella whistled at the apprentices display. "Not this village," she said to Valik. "They are too independent minded, too aggressive. Remember that these are descendants of Jedi. What we just encountered were idiot scouts. In their village the greatest of their warriors await us. Warriors who are as adept in the force as you." Almost all of their warriors used the force to redirect their projectiles fire, but the chieftains were different. They had risen through power and brute strength to lead this village. No they would not, could not, be tamed. But their destruction could serve a purpose. The village had erected a hasty wall out of long shafted timbers. "Kill everyone who resists," Sirella ordered. "Leave women and children, and those who surrender." Very few would surrender, but they would be needed.
 
Kaine nodded and approached the crude wall they had established in a futile attempt to keep the Sith out. Kaine found that amusing, but lost all feeling of that word as he shattered their barrier with the force, it was as easy as knocking over dominoes to him. He then began to stroll into the village with such a swagger that it looked like he acted as if he already owned the joint already. He could feel the tribe's determination, their ferocity, but most importantly... he could feel their fear of these otherworldly invaders from the stars. He would have to tap into this fear later, but for now it was time for action. He sensed them before he could see them, and suddenly four Ysanna Warriors erupted from the huts nearby, their Concussion Bows already brought up to bear and they fired, using their limited control of the force to angle the bullets to try and confuse Kaine, but it would not work. The Grand Vizier held up his hand, and the bullets stopped dead in their tracks, merely a few inches from Kaine's body, and with another flick of his hand, he sent them careening back into the craniums of their shooters, dropping all four shooters at once. "Come now children... It's time you punished these worthless vermin..."
 
Daxton joined in the hunt, flanking Kaine's approach to the village. Ignoring the group that attacked his former apprentice, he headed straight for the strongest source of power, the tribal chieftain. The barbarian roared a challenge at the approaching Sith, as he wield a huge sword which could probably decapitate Daxton should it ever connect with his flesh.

But the Sith Knight was like a wraith, effortlessly dodging past the blade, almost seemingly flowing through the chieftain's guard to tap him lightly on his bare chest, hitting him with over a dozen poisoned needles at point blank range.

The Chieftain was able to make a couple of sluggish ineffectual swings before collapsing face first into the ground while Daxton stood tall over him. Unleashing a cry of triumph, the Sith Knight emitted an aura of horror and dread all around him as he dared anyone to attack him....
 

Valik

Professor of Alchemy
“Very well milady.” Valik said, obeying the order of the plant Sith Lord commanding him. It was not how he would have done it, but it was her mission, and his personal research wasn’t going to be compromised. He was sure there were lots of other Ysanna on the planet to experiment on as well. Instead of wooing the enemy with the magic and mysticism of the Force, Valik opted to simply pull out his semi-automatic Imp pistol and begin firing on any Ysanna readying a concussion a bow. It got the job done, as the Ysanna were very poorly armored and had no resistance to the blaster-fire, and it didn’t require any great effort from Valik other than simply point and pull a trigger.

Meanwhile Daxton Bane, a large mirror armored Zabrak Valik had read a file on in the Sith database, ran toward the strongest Force Signature he could find and killed it. It was a brutish move, but an effective one. The tribesman would see how easily their leader was taken down and fear the sky-invaders that came. Many still stayed and fought, but some began to ran. Valik wasn’t about to let that happen, and began using the Force to move objects infront of the runners, tripping them and slowing them down. Valik began shooting the legs of the cowards, both those tripped and those running, in an attempt to take away that which they thought would save them.
 
Samanthe raised an eyebrow and shrugged at Valik. The man was interesting since he took the time out to try and conform the creature to their cause, but as her Mistress had stated this village was for the thrill of the kill. Sam wondered if she was going to be able to hold back once they did get to the said village that they could get the group to think of them as gods. She didn’t want to let something pathetic like these vermin to live, if they were going to be fooled by the tricks then they deserved to die. Her lips curled as she offered an answer to Valik before he ran off.

“Stay out of my way or you’ll be a bowing headless corpse”

With that, her cold and sharp voice disappeared with the sound of the double bladed lightsaber shutting down. She moved gracefully and quickly towards the village she stopped through and looked at Sirella for a moment before speaking to the woman.

“Despite your orders to let the woman and children live – I highly doubt I can obey that order. Best hope that they don’t run into me my Master”

Turning her attention away she moved into the village which was already in chaos. Sighing softly she had a feeling she was going to become bored rather quickly. No one was fighting back those that did were quickly cut down. Sam on the other hand had a mission, she went looking for something. She searched the village and sliced through whoever tried to attack her. As she cut down one of the guards, she had found it. There was a small hut that covered an underground tunnel, they were trying to evacuate heading to other villages or something of the sort. A wicked grin swept across her perfect face and her green eyes flickered with joy as she used the force to speed up her sprint. Jumping into the hut she spun the unlit hilt of her saber a few times and then the blades shot out driving the light blade through the temples of two of the guards. Now they were undefended.

“Well well, what do we have here…trying to escape? No no, I don’t think so”

Jumping into the hole screams echoed as she slashed through every living being that was in there. Laughter escaped the deranged woman as she continued to move through the tunnel decimating anything that stood there that wasn’t Sith. Though if she had her way she would have killed the others too they were only in her way. Sam climbed out of the hole and attached the blade to her belt a single finger ran under her cheek and wiped away a bit of the blood that had caught her as she decapitated a pathetic excuse for a hero. She then moved to join the others.
 
Two more came at him, eager to avenge the death of their chieftain, maybe seize the reins from his murderer, such was the primitive way of thinking. Rule of the strong, kill or be killed. In a way it was a very simple way of living. Closer to the truth than anyone cared to admit. But they were simple barbarians, nothing against the skill of well trained Sith Weapons Master like Daxton.

Engaging them simultaneously with his orange lightsaber staff deflected their attacks away from his body before striking like an asp, lightning quick. One and then the other. Both corpses falling to the ground a neat hole in the center of their foreheads, still smoking from where Daxton inserted his blades in.

Spinning his blades in a protective arc around him, he waited for the next challenger to approach.
 

Valik

Professor of Alchemy
A bowing headless corpse? Oh, the very thought made Valik shake in his boots, or it would have if he wasn't a Sith and she was capable of such a feat. Valik ignored the woman, for now, and continued laying fire onto the Ysanna, never letting anyone get within saber range of him. Aside from Valik's lack of physical presence, it was also considerably less efficient than merely pulling a trigger. Point-dead, point-dead, rather than take time to slash, take time to find new opponent, take time to slash. In truth, it was also more efficient than his rather basic knowledge of the Force, being limited to pushes of Telekinesis and painful but non-lethal lightning that the Ysanna had natural force-resistance to anyways. No, Valik was content to blast away with his Imp, not caring if the other Sith saw him weak as or foolish.

Valik began to hear a high-pitched voice of laughter, in a tone and precedence that sounded rather deranged. The blue-blood woman seemed to have a penchant for bloodlust, a flaw commonly, and wrongly associated with strength by some of his Sith peers. Such a feeling lead one to over-commitment and even addiction to the kill, and that lead to an inability to see things reasonably. In the right hands, specifically strong hands, this flaw could make a man or woman into a very useful but blunt instrument. It was so nice when people followed nice little patterns. Valik made a note of the woman's tendencies, and decided he would do some research later. Their could only be so many Sith Noble apprentices to filter and search through. As Valik continued his attack, switching to his saber temporarily if anyone got within a couple of meters of him, he saw the woman rise out of a small tunnel under one the Ysanna huts, and wipe a touch of blood off of her face.

"It seems this village won't be enough for you." Valik stated at @Samanthe Quiwl, referencing the woman's thirst for the kill. "Please do leave a few bodies clean enough for a proper dissection."
 

Sirella Valkner

Because I'm a plant.
The village was on fire, the smoke and flames no doubt seen from miles away. As political theater went it was grand. The tribes nomadic warriors were returning now to their broken homes. Sirella waited for them on the outskirts as the Sith finished rounding up the survivors and seperating those who would kneel from those who would require execution. As the warriors ride in Sirella offered them a choice, join her or die. Each little group required an example of her power. Vines wrapped and killed leaders or lightning burst from her hand. It was all a play. Many of the groups joined her, but just as many resisted and were put down....

OOC: I've tried posting four and internet problems have killed it and I had to start over. So yeah this is short because well 50/50 shot of losing it again. I figure one more round of mopping up and then we can make a speech about being the new masters and then move on with the story. How does that sound to everyone?
 
[Works for me]

It felt good to finally be able to lash out without having to worry about the consequences, at least these barbarians gave a far better challenge than the competition he was used to. Every time he cut down one, he pretended it was Jedi Master Ben Watts, that pompous bastard of a Jedi, falling to his blade. Oh there was nothing he would love more than carving down that one and spitting on his dying face.

Well Daxton was no longer an apprentice, and if he had his way soon no longer a mere Knight as well. Daxton craved power, it was his goal to rise up among the Dark Lords as a Master, wielding power far greater than any could imagine. His time was coming, and coming soon, and when it did, it would be he who would be hunting the Jedi.

No more hiding, no more running from shadows. This time Daxton would be the hunter......
 
Onasius had arrived to the village late, taking to following behind the group instead of with them. He knew that they could sense his presence but they would also sense he was an ally. The skeletal figure stalked a half mile behind them as to not be noticed too heavily in case they came under duress he could arrive as backup. However that seemed a moot point when he witnessed the carnage that was playing out before him. The ignorant villagers were resisting with every ounce of their feeble power they had to stop the Sith, typical of those pests, to protest their masters so.

The six foot tall gaunt Sith slid into the village undetected amongst all the chaos, his hooded figure darting behind a house. He took a moment to assess the situation and ran to intercept some of his allies, their wholesale slaughter enticed him, however halfway to them he was stopped by a father whose son had died trying to save their house. To the father, taking his aggression out on Onasius was his way to make peace with his son’s passing. He stood between Onasius and his goal, and that was not acceptable. Dropping the robe to reveal Onasius's flowing leather armor, the dew claws on his forearms extended to their full length, the assassin released a fowl hiss before running toward his prey armed with a traditional sword rich with elaborate carvings, probably of tribal descent. The farmer lifted his sword to meet the apprentice’s claws, their weapons crashing with a loud bang, Onasius’s hungry fangs inches from the barbarian’s face.

The Yevetha pushed the farmer back and jumped backward himself, his bony figure dancing across the battlefield. His dew claws were hungry for battle, having the taste fresh on his lips, though once fed their appetite saw little improvement they were always hungry for more, it was the way of his people for millennia. “You defend a lost home.” Onasius growled his voice dark and ominous like the roar of an angry Krayt Dragon. He took off again, closing the distance between the two very fast and this time he wouldn’t allow him the opportunity to block the attack. It appeared that Gruwel had backed the barbarian into a corner and being the rodent he was the barbarian was none the wiser until he saw the Sith’s figure lunging at him with his eyes changing from an expressionless grey to a sinister yellow tainted with Darkside magic.

The barbarian realized he would die and the assassin saw his face change into total acceptance of his fate, he looked more at peace than anyone the Sith had seen before, it was what his species longed for their entire life, they were born and taught to accept death and worship it from day one, to accept death was to accept life. This man’s blood would bring great honor to Onasius from the Gods, his death held much prestige, to die by a Yevethan was an honor for all non-Yevethan granted by the Gods.

His blades made light work of the brute’s leather armor, his sword dropping to the ground followed soon by his body. That was a warning to the rest of them to leave the assassin alone. The Sith Apprentice retracted his claws and started toward the other Sith. He realized it was time to take this planet for the Sith, these planets held knowledge which would fuel Onasius rise through the ranks.

Valik

Professor of Alchemy
OOC:No problem. Let's wrap it up.

Valik continued on, shooting villagers, igniting and slashing his saber every once in a while a warrior managed to sneak up on him. The village did fight admirably, that much was true, but the brutes were too foolish to realize their inevitable fate. Every Ysanna who fought the Sith would die. If the rest of the villages were as bold as this one the Ysanna of Ossus were doomed to extinction . . . Valik hoped the Ysanna were smarter than that. There would be so many wasted opportunities, so many possible soldiers, test subjects, and even Sith prospects that could have been from the Ysanna.
 

Sirella Valkner

Because I'm a plant.
The battle was over, the troopers were cleaning up and the others were resting. All but Sirella. She licked the man and smiled devilishly. His pupils were dilated and wide. Men were so easy, so pathetic. "Go now, the village is gathering."

Sirella took up position in the center of the village. The flames were dying down now, and the village subdued. Women and children were huddled in a large group within the village center. Sith soldiers stood guard over those warriors who had submitted. "You are Sith from this day forth." Sirella said. "You live because we allow you to live, you'll fight because we tell you to fight, and you'll die where we tell you to die." Facts all, from a certain point of view. There was a low collective murmur within the crowd. "And on Ossus, you shall reign supreme. This planet is a beautiful and vibrant world, with resources for your people to exploit. It can become a great world of warriors which serve our empire, with you as the first recruits, you at the core."

The man from earlier stood up, "You defeated our chief, and our greatest warriors," he spoke simply. "You are worthy of being followed, worthy of command."

The murmer increased until the remaining warriors stood and swore their allegiance to the Sith. Now they had the core to a local fighting force. Experts would need to be brought in to reeducate them, however for now they would do. Soon this world would be the siths.

Sirella walked away from the group and over to the woodline. She examined a small obsidian stone underneath a plant and smiled, this world would be perfect.

His wheels slick with the blood of the innocent, MSE-007, the Rodent of Abjection, the Squealing Death, the Springer of the Trap, cavorted through the village in little circles.

Ready for the next assignment. Ready, and sparking with anticipation.

He circled Sirella, all abuzz with dark glee, awaiting orders.
 
(I know some of this text might be over-powered, but I promise I won't let it affect the good functioning of the roleplay)

After Lady Valkner's resounding speech, a loud whir would be heard around the village.

It was the Cruxador, in other word, the Prince of Centares-mobile. The 200 meter long ship began its descent and engaged its docking clamps, just outside the smoldering village. Why were they so precise in determining where the attack party was? Simple. Their captain was a Sith. A newly admitted Sith for that matter, one who had just built his lightsaber, and an extremely dangerous sociopath with a probersidianly proportioned ego.

The clamps engaged, and the ship was down. Out of it walked Alshor Amekar, Crown Prince of Centares.

Alshor was a tribute from the Centarean Kingdom to the Sith Empire. While negotiating an alliance settlement, Darth Aryeh, the Empire's chief diplomat, had heard from the household that Alshor, unconsciously, had performed a feat of prowess with the Force few could match.

The Prince was a genius, with an IQ approaching 210 and five doctorates in his pocket by the age of 26 (this may seem incredible, but for some species, it is the norm. Just, not for humans). But what truly set him apart was his unparalleled Force sensitivity. Throughout his childhood, his tutor was Mater Aaliyah, a kind woman who taught the boy everything he knew. He loved her, and she "loved" him. At some point, it was then revealed that she was a droid. Alshor was furious, enraged to the point of madness. A typical Centarean disapproval gesture was clenching of hands in the form of a force push. Little did he know, he sent the messenger, a hapless servant, flying at nearly fifty miles per hour at a column.

Lord Aryeh was impressed by the story, but was not fully convinced. He ordered that the boy be brought to him, and be tested. A cruel test was to be imposed to him. He had previously had a loving, romantic relationship with one of the house's servants (ironically). Her name was Noelle [OOC: Yes this is a reference to the song Teenage Dirtbag, by Wheatus :)], and she was beautiful beyond compare. She was exceptionally simple-minded and dull however, knowing nothing but acting as a janitor and a waitress. She had left him for another man, but this man did not merit Alshor's fury. He was Yoris Earhart, the lieutenant of the platoon of Royal Phalangites on the young nobleman's personal ship. However, he never realized why the girl had left him.

This is where Lord Aryeh stepped in. He fed the young man outrageous, despicable lies about her, saying she left you because you're incompetent, she calls you a [swear-word], she used you. Already being extremely prone to violent fits of anger, this enraged him to the point of doing something truly incredible, something that would not be repeated until the arrival of a 5-year old Darth Plagueis ont the scene. He was going to do something absolutely, reprehensibly vicious. Approaching her, with eyes blazing with the beet yellow color typical of Sith Lords, he simply looked at her. She could not tell what he was doing, trying to get his attention. After a short while, the young man had depressed the girl to the point of suicide, using the classic mind trick. Bawling her eyes out, she committed suicide. The Empire's Chief Diplomat was thoroughly impressed, so much so he demanded the young prince be trained under the Sith Tradition.

He had begun his studies under the heel of Lord Dissero, the Master of Vaults within the Empire. Teaching him many good things, the prodigy of the Force then began building his signature twin sabers. They were specifically designed for Alshor's fighting style: Makashi, Djem So mixed with a strong dose of Soresu. They were, as typical of the second form, curved in an elegant way. However, the prince's style was anything but elegant. Even though it was as precise as most practicioners would have, the Djem So would usually take over. His fighting technique was based solely on brute force and strong defense, alternating between the two ad infinitum. He would occasionally incorporate a force push or two, as well as a choke here and there.

The Siths on the planet would sense his presence immediately as he came. He descended from the ship, cloakcap descended and face plainly visible. His twin lightsabers dangling from his belt, he would arrive in front of Lady Valkner. Behind him were some reinforcements, and not any reinforcements. A full platoon of elite Centarean Royal Phalangites, who used the force to have unparalleled accuracy and power in their shots.

Bowing down to show respect, and asking his soldiers to do the same he said: "Hello, mi'lady. I am at your command"

There was always a twinge of disappointment at not being there for the first cut, not witnessing the change in a towns emotions from anger and aggression, to fear and submission. Anaya could taste the fear as she followed the trail, her bare feet steeping silently, her red eyes glittering in the darkness as she followed the stink of fear, blood and smoke. She may have missed the beginning but she would not miss the end. She like this planet, it suited her. Not too hot, not to cold and plenty of lush jungle full of life and full of the force.

She wore no armour just a short leather skirt and a sleeveless leather crop top. She had no fear in gaining injury, to move without armour and with her skin so bare was a test on the battlefield. The less she was cut the greater she was with her lightsabers. the twin saber hung at her hips as she moved from the shadow of the trees pausing just outside them as a huge ship descended on the village.

She made a noise of disgust. She had stomach enough for one noble man, and that was only because he had charm. These other nobles believed themselves to be so much greater and it showed in their faces, in their entrances ion everything they did. She would interfere, just because it was a good game, and because he plan would upset more than one person among them.

She moved to Sirella, sliding an arm round the zelosian woman's waist. "You didn't wait for me." she purred at her, a pining in her voice.
 

Valik

Professor of Alchemy
Oh great, another noble with an inflated view of himself. Valik thought to himself. Nobility was not something to be born with, but something to be earned, taken through strength and cunning. He didn't know why so many Sith seemed to have noble heritage, but Valik hated it. It made them weaker, having men who had grown up in lives of luxury. True strength was forged where there were no hands to hold a man up against the world, but nobility gave them everything they needed, and everything to remove any need or want for growth.

Valik returned to a position of attention near the Zelosian Jedi Master. He wanted nothing more than continue on with taking the planet, exploring Jedi archives, analyzing Jedi artifacts . . . something other than watch these nobles drool over themselves and their 'power'.
 

Sirella Valkner

Because I'm a plant.
Sirella let out a gentle moan as the Red Woman wrapped her arm around her waist. The flora sith wiggled and writhed into the woman's arms as she brought her left hand up to caress her lekku. As her fingers caressed the soft red skin of the Tw'lek she sent shivers of pain into her nerves causing her body to pulse with pleasure. Sirella licked her lips and watched as the the Empress's champion fall in beside her, a victim of the gentlest ministrations. "There are other villages," she said to the woman. "You'll have more chances I promise you.

Another village awaited them, the chief rivals of the one they had just conquered. They subjugated one village, now it was time to send a message oppose us and die. And then there was the first village they had approached, by now the parasitic plants would be destroying the crops and taking over their fields. She could of course make them regrow, make them. They would make good soldiers, but first they needed to suffer a little and get desperate enough to come to the Sith. "I've talked with the villagers here, and this is a more nomadic tribe. They travel in a great horde and ride beasts." She laughed at the concept. Perhaps when Ossus was barren that made sense, but now with the dense jungle... "It's a throwback to another time. They are a dying and stangnate people, and it is our job to cull them."

She turned to Anaya and smiled at her, "Should we ask the little ones how they wish to proceed?" Sirella's green eyes glared into the sith womans. "Or shall we order? Which is our way?" Turning she then said, "Yes," she turned to the group. "Plan an attack. I will leave the strategy to you."

His wheels wet with the blood of the innocent, MSE-007 ground his gears excitedly. He beeped and blatted, without a translator available -- he had no intention of being understood. He was, in a very real sense, talking to himself.

He zipped to a halt in front of Anaya, she who had been ordained to form a strategy, and awaited word of the coming slaughter.
 
Sam had grown bored, she let the rest of the group attack everyone. This was her response to the other Apprentice who seemed to dislike her way of doing things. She sat on a barrel and watched the slaughter; it made her feel good to see everything suffer. In her mind the only people that needed to prosper were her people back home. Despite the cold hearted nature of the girl, the people of her planet relished in her generous endeavors for them. Shrugging the thoughts of home off, she watched as her Mistress conducted the rest of the mission. The villagers seemed to listen to her and Sam saw this as an opportunity to return to the group.

Looking down she noticed blood on her boot and frowned. She had managed to get the blood of this filth on her. As she walked back towards her Mistress it seemed another apprentice showed up with a fanfare. Narrowing her eyes, she grew disgusted with his display. It was obvious he was of her status, but rubbing it in everyone’s face was something she disliked. Of course her and Sasha enjoyed flaunting their wealth, but on the battlefield it was common ground. Grinning she walked up to the man that was bowing in front of her Mistress. Doing a little curtsey, she used the force to pull the hem of his robe and wipe the blood from her boot.

“Thanks, it needed a bit of shine.”

Turning her back on him, she looked towards her Mistress wondering if she was going to be scolded for the action. Either way she didn’t care…and then…

“OH MY FORCE! So cute~”

Running over, Samanthe saw the little droid of doom and knelt down to view it. She saw the blood everywhere and knew that this droid was the one for her!

“I’m going to call you Doom Rider!! Because you’re just amazing~”

She used the edge of her robe to wipe some of the blood from the machine as she happily claimed it as her own.

“You are now my partner!!”
