To Be Sith - by Acolyte Samyi

#1
To understand what it means to be a Sith, one need look no further than the word itself and what it means. Supreme, to stand above all - and perfect, for the ideal we chase. To walk the path of the Sith is to forever pursue the impossible to embody and realize it, to drag down the gods and walk among them and see one's splendor eventually outshine them so that we might take their place and more, besides.

We reach for perfection with such fervor that reality itself caves around us and, through the Force, molds itself according to our will. No rule or law can truly constrain that which reaches the height of mastery of oneself, of life, of death, and of the Dark Side.

One reaches for perfection through endless sacrifice and rebirth, shedding time and time again those excess parts of our former selves that keep us from ascension. To be Sith is to die a thousand deaths and still not let death claim you. Each death whittles away the weaknesses and imperfections that keep us chained, until such a time that they can no longer bear to hold us.

To say that I am better suited than my peers to reach it would be foolish. I am aware of my weakness and insignificance, and I know that I have not yet died to shed the weakness that holds me here. However, I am unbound and unburdened by a name that chains and molds me, a destiny writ by another to carry on their legacy due to their failure to realize their own. I have been cast out and abandoned, but in that I find freedom. Freedom to grow and become, beyond anything my blood has previously tried to impose.

I am suited to die, and die again - in pursuit of a destiny of my choosing. My blood holds many keys, but no unseen hand or name will dictate which doors I open. That choice is mine, and therefore I can pursue true perfection.

Ongoing Crisis
The Republic Marches amongst lit fires!


The Balance of Power in the Northern Territories!

After the Republic liberated Pollus from Imperial influence, Anx Minor was devastated by I.T.E.C.’s nuclear mining and lingering Sith presence, while the Kesmere Ridge remained largely intact, enabling the Republic to steadily infiltrate and influence its powerful corporate systems. On Tertiary Kesmere—the largest hub—three megacorporations dominated: Oriyn Prospecting discovered resources, Kessdyne Resource Group extracted and profited from the capital Vethar’s Reach and its Ciivic Council, and Haeltor Maritime handled off-world transport. Beneath the façade of economic growth, however, The Republic secretly aimed to turn Tertiary Kesmere into a strategic launch point for operations in the Northern Territories. Contacted by Moff Vayen Korr, the Marshalling Prefect of the Northern Territories, the Pentarchy of House Horuset took on the job of delaying the Republic's actions. With preperations laid it culminated in a strike planetside lasting only two weeks to ignite anarchy. Acting covertly to sabotage Republic progress, they destabilized the region, leaving chaos in their wake as corporations collapsed under their own deception and local anti-corporate guilds rose up—unaware of the Empire’s hidden hand behind the unrest...

((OOC: Missions that relate to grand changes in the Northern Territories will have an impact on the balance of power shown above, with the end result being that the balance of power's state will determine how strong the Republic will be in given areas area. The balance of power can be pushing in our favour with bigger scale events aimed at taking the Republic down or fortifying ourselves in the North. This can be achieved through Operations, Adventures and Guild Events. The blue represents the Republic, and the Empire is red! This is organised by the Guild Team, so please direct OOC questions to them.))
