''''''Gráinne Ní Mháille'''''' (GnM) is a capital ship owned by the former leader of [[Eidola]], Warlord [[Squall Chitose]]. Very little information is available on ''GnM'', other than whispers and exaggerated tales. Confirmed only is that the ship is a heavily modified YV-666, which gained considerable infamy for being used on some of [[Teniel Djo]]'s most infamous raids after its modification at her hands. Chitose has continued to to use the ship, increasing its already notorious reputation.<br />
<br />
''Gráinne Ní Mháille'' is also notable for having survived Djo's black hole suicide. All hands were lost, but the ship was salvaged by Eidolon Forces under the direction of the new Pirate King, Squall Chitose. He temporarily named the ship "Tempered Grace" in order to hide its existence from the general public, but upon its rediscovery, the ship was returned to its original name.<br />
<br />
The GnM is the fastest known capital-class ship in the galaxy, surpassed in speed only by [[Syn]]'s ''[[Solitaire]]''. <br />

Aliit Chitose is a [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian Clan]] led by Aliit'alor [[Squall Chitose]]. The clan recognizes [[Kai Oryk]] as Mand'alor.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Squall Chitose accepted the way of the Mando'ade shortly after the Battle of Beta, in which his home and government was destroyed. After a short stint with the Rebel Alliance, Squall traveled the unknown regions, working as a mercenary. On one operation that went bad, Chitose was captured. During his capture, he hallucinated a vision of the Mandalorian god Kad Ha'rangir, the God of Life, Death, and Change. In return for his life, Squall promised a bloodbath to the god. During his escape, dozens of his captors were killed.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually joined Eidola, which he believes personifies the chaos of change that serves Kad Ha'rangir. In Eidola, he met another Mandalorian whom he befriended, [[Kai Oryk]]. Kai mentored Squall in the ways of the Mando'ade, and eventually reconstituted the nomadic people. Squall was, in turn, able to mentor a few younger pirates. These few became the basis of Clan Chitose.<br />
<br />
==Family==<br />
Aliit Chitose is known for not being as devoted to the resol'nare as other mandalorian clans. They typically only speak Mando'a in formal circumstances, such as the adoption of a new clan member. As pirates, they have looser morals than most. However, the clan are devoted to each other. <br />
<br />
Occasionally, the clan refers to themselves as "The Black Knives", after the Lictor-Class Cruiser "Ne'tral Kad", which translates as "The Black Knife." Their unofficial clan motto is "Black Knives don't kneel." <br />
<br />
==Armor==<br />
The Chitose Clan's official colors are orange and black, and their armor tends to be highly stylized. Chitose's armor is known for being bright orange with black trim, with his helmet having two horns protruding. This is an allusion to the stylized horned skull and crossbones that makes up the clan's logo.<br />
<br />
All members of the clan are permitted, and encouraged, to paint their armor according to their own individual sensibilities. Chitose's armor is the only full set of beskar'gam in the clan, but there are several partial sets. Other armors generally consist of Heavy Battle Armor and Imperial Royal Guard Armor. <br />
<br />

<br />
==Joining==<br />
Anybody can join as long as its agreed upon to accept them. Currently, the clan operates of the [[Lictor-class Dungeon Ship]] ''The Black Knife''. As a clan, they are noted for mostly being members of [[Eidola]], and not following the tenets of the [[Mando'ade]] as closely as other clans.<br />

<div>==New Selection Process==<br />
<br />
As there was a general agreement that we need a more formal selection process (see below), from now on articles need to go through the following steps:<br />
<br />
* Everyone can suggest articles, please enter them in the "Suggestions" section of this page. Put a link and sign your suggestion.<br />
* On the 15th day of each month all current suggestions will be pasted to the "Vote" section. Every user can give support to one article every month. Every article can be discussed in the "Recent Discussion" section. The article that gets most votes on the 15th of next month will be featured next. <br />
* The article will be deleted from the "suggestions" list as soon as it is featured.--[[User:Dreighton|Dreighton]] 01:00, 17 April 2014 (GMT) <br />

==Selection==<br />
<br />
I have a few issues with both featured articles:<br />
# Both articles that were featured so far had red links right on the main page, which is usually a bad style/example and one of the many things that stops articles from being showcased.<br />
# Both articles were also imperial in their nature, and while they may be the most finished articles (due to being copied from somewhere else) I don't think it's a good for empire to "take over" the main page of the wiki.<br />
# Nobody nominated any of the articles in question, Orphaea just did it on his own. At least I didn't see any discussion about it on the wiki. What's to stop anyone else with replacing any FAs with some other article, about their government or leader? There needs to be a nomination process, or we'll have an anarchy of all groups trying to get featured on main page. Or is "first come, first serve" desired outcome?<br />
--[[User:Xanyarr Chyakk|Xanyarr Chyakk]] 12:06, 7 March 2011 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:Agreed. However, I think it's fair to say the Holocron is still in its infancy as far as content goes, and the main page reflects this more than anything. Once more people start contributing on a regular basis, especially people who have knowledge and insight in to non-Imperial matters, the Holocron will hopefully appear less "side dominated." I figure at that point it'll be easier to nominate featured articles from all sides/aspects of the game. --[[User:Alex Tylger|Alex Tylger]] 15:22, 7 March 2011 (GMT)<br />
<br />
: I think Orphaea did a great job by making a new start page that imitates the look and features of Wikipedia. That is what counts at this point. I think we do not have many excellent articles by now, so I don't blame him for choosing the ones he selected. He could have chosen the article on his own character, btw, which is quite impressive. :) "What's to stop anyone else with replacing any FAs with some other article, about their government or leader?" - NOTHING. That's the whole point. If you know of a great article then feature it. If you have a good idea how a nomination process should work, feel free to implement it and we can test it. I am not really scared about "first come, first serve" at this point. We have maybe half a dozen people who contribute to the holocron on a meta level right now. If every one of them finds two or three articles to be featured, that would be great. I think right now this discussion page is enough to agree on a few things, e.g. how long an article should usually be featured. But even with this I would trust the common sense of people lie you and Alex. If the wiki and the number of contributers grows, we may need a procedure, so implementing and testing it now would be a good idea, but for now it should work if any of us selects any half way decent article as featured article every few days. The idea is to showcase the wiki and encourage people to explore it. --[[User:Dreighton|Dreighton]] 21:01, 7 March 2011 (GMT)<br />
<br />
: The articles where obviously chosen because they where the most complete at the time, I take no issue with that, though the red link aspect is a definite no no. In terms of nomination of articles this talk page should be enough. They can be nominated and consensus achieved here. [[User:Horthon Gorthy|Horthon Gorthy]] 15:30, 8 March 2011 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::If you don't like the red links, there's these great 'edit' and 'create' features that the Holocron has...<br />
<br />
::The next featured article (which I'll put up later today) will probably be [[Siejo Kutol]], which isn't an 'Imperial' page. With a little more content, I'd expect [[The Avance Coalition]] to be up in the near future as well. [[Orphaea Imperium|my own article]] is pretty good as well, but I've held off on making it a featured article for the moment, it might go up in a few weeks depending on what activity and development there is on other pages in that time. [[User:Orphaea Imperium|Orphaea Imperium]] 21:12, 13 March 2011 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::: Siej's article is an apt choice. Your bio is also an excellent one that we should see in the coming weeks. Thank you for the comment on the avance one, however there is alot more work to go into it before itll be ready. Also, on another note I've created [[:Template:Featured Article|a template]] for selected pages to be put on their talk pages as a kind of reward.

==Article Suggestions - Discussion==<br />
Does anyone have article suggestions for the months of August, September, and October 2013? We need a few article candidates. =P -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 22:27, 22 July 2013 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:We should consider a general theme for those months (like the three big galactic blocs) and then take the time before the month comes along to improve the candidates. This way first there is a pattern and second we can get together to improve one article at a time. --[[User:Raith Starlight|Raith Starlight]] 23:51, 22 July 2013 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::Hmm. I'm not sure if we have enough presentable articles to adopt a general theme approach yet. Most editors only write autobiographical articles instead of more useful articles about important events, alliances, conflicts, etc. I'm having difficulty finding articles for the upcoming January and February months.... -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]]<br />
<br />
:::Does anyone have any pages (other than their own biographies) that they wish to nominate as a Featured Article? So far, [[Vorsia Companion]] seems to be a decent candidate... -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 01:04, 1 January 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::: [[Elvira Falston]] seems to be on her way to creating a solid biography, though it isn't complete. It's definitely something to watch for the future. The [[New Republic]] article also seems on its way. -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 20:56, 13 January 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::::: Okay... I guess we can go with NR this month (February) and Elvira's next month? --- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 18:01, 1 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::::: Either/or being first would definitely work. I think they're both good articles at this point (better than those which haven't been featured, and are available, that is). -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 18:56, 1 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::: So what do we have for next month? There's a few good ones out there. IMO it doesn't need to be a perfect article to be highlighted.-- [[User:Wolfgang von Schlavendorf|Wolfgang von Schlavendorf]] 16:31, 21 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::::: I don't know if it is up to the quality of a featured article, but I can propose the [[Baobab Merchant Fleet]] article. There is a lot of effort and research behind it. --[[User:Ruben Wan|Ruben Wan]] 16:03, 22 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::::: Black Sun and Boabab are both good articles. Hmm. Both articles need a few more internal hyper-links. -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 17:33, 22 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::::: [[Black Sun]] is still a WIP, though I imagine it'll be done in a month's time. I intend to go through and add more internal hyper-links, and potentially images, once I've finalized the remaining couple sections. I also still think [[Elvira Falston]] is good, though I understand putting some distance between personal biographies. -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 00:52, 24 February 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::::: Another month is finished, and we need a GOOD featured article again. Are we going for the [[Elvira Falston]]'s? Who is in charge to update the featured articles? --[[User:Ruben Wan|Ruben Wan]] 12:16, 1 April 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::::::: The consensus process kind of broke down after the Tex Navos/Doc Jessa/Ignatius Paak incident. See the [[Talk:Holocron:Featured Articles#Should editors be allowed make articles on their own character a featured article?|ongoing discussion below]]. I think we are waiting for Dreighton to implement the proposed selection system for featured articles. -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 23:20, 1 April 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::::::: Let's use a prior featured article as a placeholder because that red link in the front page may just be tempting for some people to just add their own articles --[[User:Raith Starlight|Raith Starlight]] 00:00, 2 April 2014 (GMT)<br />
::::::::: I am for this as long as we use Feb's article. I think its best we erase March and put this unfortunate incident behind us, which reflects us collectively dropping the ball.<br />
<br />
==Changing the presentation style of this page==<br />
Rather than merely listing previous featured articles in chronological order, perhaps we should follow the example of Wikipedia's "Featured Articles" section. We could divide the articles chosen thus far into [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_featured_article/October_2013 an Archive page] and also a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_articles broader Categories] page... Thoughts? -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 00:37, 15 October 2013 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:It's an interesting idea. You sort of already did the Archive style, and though the broader categories would be a bit empty right now, over time that would flesh out a bit. So long as people are capable of finding featured articles with ease, I'd be supportive of it. -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 20:16, 13 November 2013 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:: We're doing monthly featured articles so we won't have that much clutter compared to Wikipedia. Like Kyran mentioned, if the interface for browsing is as smooth as Wikipedia's, then I support it as well. --[[User:Raith Starlight|Raith Starlight]] 16:46, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
==Should editors be allowed make articles on their own character a featured article?==<br />
<br />
This was brought to my attention as a reaction to the article on Tex Navos being featured. I am putting my ideas here, because it is easier to discuss this as a group here than through DM or IRC.<br />
<br />
Actually one of my earlier postings to the talk page can me read as a clear indication that editors are allowed to do just that. ("I think we do not have many excellent articles by now, so I don't blame him [Orphea Imperium] for choosing the ones he selected. He could have chosen the article on his own character, btw, which is quite impressive.") I still see no reason, why an editor should not select his or her own article, at least I would not consider it a problem in itself. As far as there is an outcry right now, it is the effect of several players being told (by whom and why?) or assuming (why?) that they are not allowed to make their own article the featured article. So we now have an outcry, because someone else has done just that. So regarding the current situation with the Tex Navos article I see it as an unfortunate result of a situation where several people involved made assumptions on a situation that was not clearly defined so far. In other words: It is pointless to discuss, if anyone did anything wrong at this point, instead we should decide how to handle this in the future and move on.<br />
The selection process for the featured article is not clearly defined yet. I felt so far that we were doing well enough without it. Actually we didn't have many controcersies about featured articles in the three years that the Holocron exists now, and this without having a tight protocol. Actually I still don't see many suggestions or much of a discussion on this page even now. But maybe people just don't know how to go about having an article featured. So my suggestion is this: I'll add a section to the guide page that suggestions for featured articles should be put on this talk page in a specific section. In another specific section we could have a simple vote process (like Wikpedia has it for requests for deletion): Everyone can speak in favour of ONE of the currently suggested articles and the one with the most votes will be featured next (and the article will be taken off the suggestion list and the voting section will be wiped clear). How often do we want a new fetaured article? Monthly?<br />
<br />
And just to be clear: Everyone may suggest the article on his or her character. What will change is that we have an established process for selecting the article.--[[User:Dreighton|Dreighton]] 12:55, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:: I agree with the outcry, from a contributor standpoint. I absolutely think it should be against the rules for anyone who is not a Holocron administrator to unilaterally feature an article without consensus. Further, I think someone unilaterally featuring ''their own'' article should be completely disallowed. Previous character, or current character, I think it sets a horribly messy new precedent. Do I think people should be able to suggest their bios? Absolutely. However, Lilith spoke to Rupert to get approval and advice. I did the same. Others are doing the same. A precedent was already set, and not followed. <br><br>The holocron is ultimately about community and consensus. There was no community involvement in this decision, and there was no consensus. This leads to the ability to "feature" articles which can be very poor examples of proper editing, roleplay, construction, etc. It removes the polishing aspect, which I believe is exceptionally important if these articles are supposed to represent the best we've got. For example, excluding very few things within the Tex Navos article (Dark Skies Gearworks, her relationship with some PCs), 90% of the article content post-character creation was entirely made up without ever being roleplayed or established. There is an entire section godmodding the Galactic Empire having abandoned a Destroyer, and Renegade Imperials attacking her that was never RP'd in an Empire approved scenario. She managed to godmod the Galactic Government, and we're saying this is okay. Had this article been examined by Holocron administration, I'd like to think that would have been a major issue. For a community based on proper RP, this definitely is not an example of, "the best articles the Holocron has to offer." It's an example of what people should '''not''' do. But there was no ability for people to point that out, because a unilateral decision was made.<br><br>As to the holocron lacking a process for making this decision, it does not. The primary Featured Article Holocron page states, "They are used by editors as examples for writing other articles. Before being listed here, articles should be reviewed as for accuracy, neutrality, completeness, and style. To suggest a featured article, please post a message on the discussion page." The discussion page, is of course this one. People are already expected to lobby or suggest articles they think are worthy. People are already given an outlet to suggest their work, and the work of others. People are already allowed to discuss ideas with the Holocron admin and their fellows. The process works - this is just an instance of a community member thinking they're above it. <br><br>I think the outcry is fitting, given that others have followed the outlined process, and spoken with the community and with Rupert. The outcry is fitting, given that those who followed the rules were not featured, and someone who tossed the rules to the side was featured without pause. The precedent this instance sets is that the process is broken, and that this one community member is above the others who have followed the rules dilligently. Neither of these things are true. Honestly, I think the current Featured Article should be removed, the editor given a slap on the wrist, and the community suggestion process - which has successfully progressed thus far under Rupert's watchful eye - be allowed to persist. -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 14:42, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
::: Looks like we need to formalize the criteria (point to the guidelines if they already exist on the Holocron on issues that Kyran mentioned like godmodding), nomination and selection process. For reference, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates Wikipedia's featured article candidate nomination] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_criteria Wikipedia's featured article criteria]. Wikipedia's featured article candidate nomination allows for support/oppose votes along with comments on the same issues that should have been caught with the current featured article. --[[User:Raith Starlight|Raith Starlight]] 16:46, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::I agree with Kyran on a number of things. The selections thus far have been wonderful, with bios including numerous descriptions of real events in appropriate detail (no or very little godmodding). I believe that the selection process should be clearly defined and each article should be selected a few weeks in advance to prevent a blank Featured Article section at the start of a month. Each suggested article examined for errors and godmodding. I also like the idea of your selection process Jennifer, having people vote on it. --[[User:Evelyn Reighner|Evelyn Reighner]] 16:53, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::Definitely agree with the sentiment that this article DOES NOT meet the standards we want to set for a holocron article. A few months ago, one of the other editors(Orph or Tylger) lobbied for one of their own articles. We all accepted that article because it met holocron standards for style and quality. This article does NONE of that and reads more like a badly written RP. I like Dreighton's suggestion about the process and that we should adopt it. In the meantime the Tex Navos article should be removed from featured, and even flagged , as it does not conform to holocron standards. -- [[User:Prard`aga Rono|Prard`aga Rono]] 16:57, 2 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
::::Is is okay if I remove the article from Featured until we have a new article?<br />
::::I'd say yes. The current article is a terrible example. I've suggested Elvira Falston a couple times. It could be a good filler if we don't want a blank page. But I'd rather a blank page than the current RP-fest. -- [[User:Kyran Caelius|Kyran Caelius]] 17:14, 5 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
:::::I'm in agreement that the current one should be removed. No complaints about Elvira's article. --[[User:Raith Starlight|Raith Starlight]] 02:35, 6 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
::::I believe it should be. As a side note this player has put his another of his articles up before without asking about it here: [[Ignatius Paak]]. Although he could have gotten permission by asking a staff member. I think a new Holocron: page should be made for voting and the criteria. --[[User:Evelyn Reighner|Evelyn Reighner]] 05:26, 7 March 2014 (GMT)<br />
<br />
:::I agree with Dreighton's suggested process for Featured Articles. I also agree with most of the concerns posted here by others. As for me, my primary worry was that &mdash; unless a protocol is established &mdash; we eventually might have a large number of random editors warring over whose character will be featured for a certain month. -- [[User:Rupert Havok|Rupert Havok]] 21:07, 7 March 2014 (GMT)<br />

'''Eidola''', also more formally known as the '''Eidola Pirates''', is a gang of pirates that controls several galactic sectors. Originally founded by the notable scammer and thief, [[Keir Santage]], and subsequently led by his daughter, [[Teniel Djo]], the pirate gang evolved from a small nucleus of thieves circa [[Year 4]] into a powerful government.<br />
<br />
The official currencies for Eidola are the galactic credit and trophy ears.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Eidola began as a small tight-knit group of thieves under the leadership of [[Keir Santage]]. Early members included [[Bruce Spear]], [[Derek Shado|Derek Solo]], and [[Lloyd Font]]. The group of freelancers eventually moved into [[Outrider Trading]] after Keir was given its leadership, and the company was transformed into a den of thieves who became widely regarded as the best in the galaxy's criminal underworld. Keir later sold Outrider Trading, and purchased [[Biotech Medical]] instead, and the group moved to the new company, picking up new recruits like [[Utono Brutza]] along the way. Later they sold Biotech, and created a new collective from scratch called [[Malebranche]]. Soon after, one of the two Malebranche groups became '''Eidola'''.<br />
<br />
Keir led Eidola for barely five months before his alleged death in [[Year 5]], and the group was passed on to his teenage daughter, [[Teniel Djo]]. Colloquially nicknamed the Pirate Queen, she rapidly rose to galactic fame through her clever confidence scams and her charismatic media appearances, and transformed the group of pirates into a formal government over many of the [[Outer Rim Territories]]. She led the group for seven years before committing suicide in the [[Maw]] in [[Year 12]], along with a handful of fellow pirates and a number of Eidola's finest ships. This left Eidola in the hands of Warlord [[Squall Chitose]], who strove to expand the pirate-controlled territory throughout the galaxy.<br />

Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]] and the Mandalorian Clan [[Aliit Chitose|Chitose]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of Tatooine. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. He was childhood friends with former Black Sun leader Plojo Rosom, and romanced the Dark Prince’s sister briefly. As a child, Chitose’s past times were shooting and camping in the wilderness. When the Empire took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, Chitose’s parents were killed by the Empire as a show of force during the meeting. <br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He was able to hold off Imperial troops long enough to make it to Mos Eisley, where access some hidden assets of his parents. He was able to buy passage off Tatooine, and drifted for a few months before coming into contact with the Rebel Alliance.<br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an unavailability of slots made him eligible for That Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a lieutenant in the Cougar Company under High General Shae Briston. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to Captain. As the commander of Cougar Company, Chitose showed tactical brilliance to the degree that he was advanced to the rank of Major General, becoming the executive officer of the Marine Division in Planetary Command.<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by Lysander and David Salohah, the new SC.<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named Adam Zad. Squall learned a lot from Zad, but eventually left for the Imperial Army.<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, Under Colonel Maureen York. He quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was a contemporary of Mark DeMeer. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was corrupt, bloated, and evil. <br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to [[Nebular Enterprises|Nebular]] to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. He was appointed commander of the Falleen Army, and later the Lord Commander of the entire Falleen Military. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the[[ Shadowstone]]. For his bravery and tactical ability, Chitose was awarded many decorations and granted the title of “Warlord” by King Kuraine.<br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of [[Nar Shaddaa]], Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor. <br />
<br />
Concurrent to the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, the defense of the Beta System was being planned. Squall was involved in the planning phases, and was set to jump into the system with reinforcements. Sadly, the Kuraine was murdered and the Ul-Yanin System was destroyed through the treachery of Tholin. With his home destroyed, Squall returned to Fallen Prime to help with the restructuring of the Falleen Federation. It was at his suggestion that Bisz took the Falleen Throne, though it was rumored that he was in contention for the position himself.<br />
<br />
After Bisz was coroneted, Squall resigned from the Federation. The devastation of the Battle of Beta extended into his personal life, and he and Asarya began having problems. They separated, with Squall wandering the galaxy. During this time, he was invited back into the Rebel Alliance with the commission of Colonel. He accepted, and helped General Cevin McClane get promoted. He was awarded with the position of second in command.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually stepped down from his command, opting to try to salvage the Malebranche Pirate operation that had been betrayed by Teniel Djo and left in ruins by the Draxs. Again, he left the known galaxy to become a mercenary in the outer rim. He left Malebranche under McClane’s direction, and it was promptly looted by Zachai Dracolis, an Eidola Pirate. Until Dracolis’s death, Chitose hated him.<br />
<br />
==Mandalorian==<br />
During his time in the Unknown Regions, Squall worked as a mercenary. On one operation, his party was defeated and he was captured. While undergoing torture, Chitose had a vision of Kad Ha'rangir, the Mandalorian God of Death and Life. He promised the God a lifetime of blood in exchange for his escape. Chitose’s escape from his captors is noted for the extraordinary violence he wrought upon them.<br />
<br />
==Kathol==<br />
<br />
Upon his return to from the Unknown Regions, Chitose was approached by Samuel Vimes, the leader of the Kathol Republic, to lead their military forces. Squall structured their military and led uneventfully until Vimes’ sudden temporary retirement. Squall took over the government, and had to deal with crisis involving the Eidola Pirates and the Tenloss Syndicate. He was able to tap into unknown diplomatic skills to prevent war between Kathol and the two groups.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
==Eidola==<br />
<br />
Squall worked on some smaller scale operations, until he murdered Kara Tamerin, an associate and family member of Auron Kun, on the holonet. This began his ascension in prominence in the pirating world. He was also able to board an imperial Star Galleon and murder Imperial Prefect Raelin Orlean and Imperial Army Office Aeia Tavell, who was actually the sister of the Director of Imperial Intelligence, Alexander Fel. <br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group with a plot in mind. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell. He was also able to hunt down and kill the remaining members of Yuma’s faction.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide in the [[Maw]]. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Pirate King.jpg|thumb|center|Squall as leader of the Eidola Pirates]]<br />
<br />
In late year 13, Squall was involved in an altercation that left him stranded in hyperspace aboard a vessel captained by the Raptor Pirates. Though the Raptors endeavored to wait Squall out by remaining in hyperspace, Squall evaded capture for months by barricading himself in a small Sprint shuttle. On Day 4, Year 14, Squall developed a way to reroute the shuttle's hyperdrive, allowing him to escape. The maneuver, which ripped the shuttle from hyperspace, severely damaged the engines. However, Squall was free and was able to call for pick up. The method of escape has been informally named "[[The Chitose Maneuver]]".<br />
<br />
Not even two months after returning from his ordeal with the Raptors, Squall was involved in the capture of noted thief and murderer Fleur De`Rouge. Fleur had been involved in several thefts and the high-visibility capture of the Chief of State of the New Republic. She even challenged Squall to personal combat, in which he directed the young thief to challenge his second in command, [[Syn]]. Fleur flew to Ylesia, where Squall and Syn captured and killed her. Eidola was able to seize ownership of much of the property the thief had stolen in her brief life. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
Squall is known as a pragmatic tactician, who generally disregards rules in favor of doing what he wants. His pragmatism has allowed him to become fairly successful as a diplomat. Though he has a reputation for wanton murder and cruelty, Squall is generally level-headed and non-violent. He has also been noted for his loyalty to his friends, which has gotten him in a few precarious situations before.<br />
<br />
==Relationships==<br />
Squall was married to noted Dark Jedi Master [[Asarya'katr von Ismay]], with whom he fathered two children with. Though divorced, the pair parted amicably and remain very close friends.<br />
<br />
Squall's closest friends are those in the Eidola Pirates, notably [[Syn]]. He has also spent a lot of time with Pozz Umgee, [[Deric Adams]] and Adam Zad. Prior to his death at the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, Squall best friend was Finn Setanta.<br />
<br />
==Deaths attributed to Chitose==<br />

He was also able to hunt down and kill the remaining members of Yuma’s faction.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide in the [[Maw]]. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />
<br />

<br />
In late year 13, Squall was involved in an altercation that left him stranded in hyperspace aboard a vessel captained by the Raptor Pirates. Though the Raptors endeavored to wait Squall out by remaining in hyperspace, Squall evaded capture for months by barricading himself in a small Sprint shuttle. On Day 4, Year 14, Squall developed a way to reroute the shuttle's hyperdrive, allowing him to escape. The maneuver, which ripped the shuttle from hyperspace, severely damaged the engines. However, Squall was free and was able to call for pick up. The method of escape has been informally named "[[The Chitose Maneuver]]".<br />
<br />
Not even two months after returning from his ordeal with the Raptors, Squall was involved in the capture of noted thief and murderer Fleur De`Rouge. Fleur had been involved in several thefts and the high-visibility capture of the Chief of State of the New Republic. She even challenged Squall to personal combat, in which he directed the young thief to challenge his second in command, [[Syn]]. Fleur flew to Ylesia, where Squall and Syn captured and killed her. Eidola was able to seize ownership of much of the property the thief had stolen in her brief life. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
Squall is known as a pragmatic tactician, who generally disregards rules in favor of doing what he wants. His pragmatism has allowed him to become fairly successful as a diplomat. Though he has a reputation for wanton murder and cruelty, Squall is generally level-headed and non-violent. He has also been noted for his loyalty to his friends, which has gotten him in a few precarious situations before.<br />
<br />
==Relationships==<br />
Squall was married to noted Dark Jedi Master [[Asarya'katr von Ismay]], with whom he fathered two children with. Though divorced, the pair parted amicably and remain very close friends.<br />
<br />
Squall's closest friends are those in the Eidola Pirates, notably [[Syn]]. He has also spent a lot of time with Pozz Umgee, [[Deric Adams]] and Adam Zad. Prior to his death at the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, Squall best friend was Finn Setanta.<br />

<br />
==History==<br />
Vincent Strife contacted the Falleen Federation with an offer of defection. He was able to break away from an Imperial Convoy in the [http://www.new-republic.org.uk/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=GM.StarGalleon-classFrigate Star Galleon] he commanded and set a course to the Beta System. He locked the remaining crew out of the navigation controls with his command codes.<br />
<br />
Once he arrived in the system, the Falleen Navy quickly interdicted the vessel. A boarding party, led by Squall Chitose, Asarya'katr, and Finn Setanta immediately boarded with each commanding a company of battle droids. Chitose's plan of attack was to isolate strategic areas that could bolster the imperial crew's chance of defeating attack. He focused on capturing the bridge, while sending Asarya and Finn to the armory and engine rooms. Chitose faced the stiffest resistance, and lost eight of his battle droids.<br />
<br />
The overwhelmed Imperial crew, save Vincent Strife, was killed. There were no Imperial survivors of the attack. <br />
<br />
The battle is seen as a precursor to Operation [[Shadowstone]], which also took place in the Beta System only a few weeks later. Many of the battle plans Kuraine and Chitose developed for Big Score were modified and used at a larger scale for the attack on the Shadowstone, including the isolation of key areas. <br />
<br />
For their actions, Chitose and Katr were given awards and titles, Vincent Strife was commissioned a Captain in the Federation Navy.<br />
<br />
==Aftermath==<br />
After the end of hostilities, Falleen forces rounded up millions of credits worth of Imperial Equipment. The Federation was able to capture several squads of imperial speeder bikes, AT-PTs, and armor items. [[Squall Chitose]] famously angered King Kuraine when he decided to blast open several safes, rather than waiting for lock breaking equipment to arrive. Within the safes were several sets of very rare armor. <br />
<br />
Operation Big Score kickstarted hostilities between the Empire and the Federation, leading to the [[Shadowston]]e Affair, and eventually the [[Battle of Beta]]. <br />

Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]] and the Mandalorian Clan [[Aliit Chitose|Chitose]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of Tatooine. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. He was childhood friends with former Black Sun leader Plojo Rosom, and romanced the Dark Prince’s sister briefly. As a child, Chitose’s past times were shooting and camping in the wilderness. When the Empire took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, Chitose’s parents were killed by the Empire as a show of force during the meeting. <br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He was able to hold off Imperial troops long enough to make it to Mos Eisley, where access some hidden assets of his parents. He was able to buy passage off Tatooine, and drifted for a few months before coming into contact with the Rebel Alliance.<br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an unavailability of slots made him eligible for That Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a lieutenant in the Cougar Company under High General Shae Briston. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to Captain. As the commander of Cougar Company, Chitose showed tactical brilliance to the degree that he was advanced to the rank of Major General, becoming the executive officer of the Marine Division in Planetary Command.<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by Lysander and David Salohah, the new SC.<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named Adam Zad. Squall learned a lot from Zad, but eventually left for the Imperial Army.<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, Under Colonel Maureen York. He quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was a contemporary of Mark DeMeer. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was corrupt, bloated, and evil. <br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to [[Nebular Enterprises|Nebular]] to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. He was appointed commander of the Falleen Army, and later the Lord Commander of the entire Falleen Military. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the[[ Shadowstone]]. For his bravery and tactical ability, Chitose was awarded many decorations and granted the title of “Warlord” by King Kuraine.<br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of [[Nar Shaddaa]], Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor. <br />
<br />
Concurrent to the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, the defense of the Beta System was being planned. Squall was involved in the planning phases, and was set to jump into the system with reinforcements. Sadly, the Kuraine was murdered and the Ul-Yanin System was destroyed through the treachery of Tholin. With his home destroyed, Squall returned to Fallen Prime to help with the restructuring of the Falleen Federation. It was at his suggestion that Bisz took the Falleen Throne, though it was rumored that he was in contention for the position himself.<br />
<br />
After Bisz was coroneted, Squall resigned from the Federation. The devastation of the Battle of Beta extended into his personal life, and he and Asarya began having problems. They separated, with Squall wandering the galaxy. During this time, he was invited back into the Rebel Alliance with the commission of Colonel. He accepted, and helped General Cevin McClane get promoted. He was awarded with the position of second in command.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually stepped down from his command, opting to try to salvage the Malebranche Pirate operation that had been betrayed by Teniel Djo and left in ruins by the Draxs. Again, he left the known galaxy to become a mercenary in the outer rim. He left Malebranche under McClane’s direction, and it was promptly looted by Zachai Dracolis, an Eidola Pirate. Until Dracolis’s death, Chitose hated him.<br />
<br />
==Mandalorian==<br />
During his time in the Unknown Regions, Squall worked as a mercenary. On one operation, his party was defeated and he was captured. While undergoing torture, Chitose had a vision of Kad Ha'rangir, the Mandalorian God of Death and Life. He promised the God a lifetime of blood in exchange for his escape. Chitose’s escape from his captors is noted for the extraordinary violence he wrought upon them.<br />
<br />
==Kathol==<br />
<br />
Upon his return to from the Unknown Regions, Chitose was approached by Samuel Vimes, the leader of the Kathol Republic, to lead their military forces. Squall structured their military and led uneventfully until Vimes’ sudden temporary retirement. Squall took over the government, and had to deal with crisis involving the Eidola Pirates and the Tenloss Syndicate. He was able to tap into unknown diplomatic skills to prevent war between Kathol and the two groups.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
==Eidola==<br />
<br />
Squall worked on some smaller scale operations, until he murdered Kara Tamerin, an associate and family member of Auron Kun, on the holonet. This began his ascension in prominence in the pirating world. He was also able to board an imperial Star Galleon and murder Imperial Prefect Raelin Orlean and Imperial Army Office Aeia Tavell, who was actually the sister of the Director of Imperial Intelligence, Alexander Fel. <br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group with a plot in mind. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell. He was also able to hunt down and kill the remaining members of Yuma’s faction.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide in the [[Maw]]. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />

Hailing from the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Iego_system Iego System], Mychal was one of the foremost [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Prince princes] of the [[Diathim]] who resided on [[Dantooine]] for a time before relocating to [[Coruscant]].<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
Mychal was the first creation of [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Father_(Mortis) Jrol] (also [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Drol Drol] or Grol) by means of [[the Force]]. <br />
<br />
Mychal worked for aeons with Jrol as his loyal servant. Mychal grew ever more like Jrol, learning to imitate his qualities. They came to have a very strong father and son bond.<br />
<br />
Sometime during the [[Sith]] Diathim Rebellion Jrol sent Mychal to Dantooine disguised as a [[human]] child in order to fulfill his destiny to become the savior of the galaxy.<br />
<br />
Mychal's [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Starship ship] crash-landed in a field on Dantooine. He was found with complete memory loss by farmers who raised him as their son, instilling in him strong moral principles and teaching him to use his abilities for good. Mychal gradually rediscovered his Diathim abilities and learned much about the Force from [[Jedi]] Master Vawnn.<br />
<br />
Mychal later discovered his ship and a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Datapad datapad] journal containing a [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hologram hologram] version of Jrol which helped him regain his lost memory and ability to change into his true form.<br />
<br />
Mychal fought crime while on Dantooine and later traveled to Coruscant to become a vigilante.<br />

'''''Shadowstone''''' is an [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] once famously captured by [[Keir Santage]], [[Finn Setanta]] and [[Squall Chitose]] who were working in the employment of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] of the [[Falleen Federation]]. A lengthy battle was fought to seize the ship chiefly through the attackers bringing aboard large amounts of [[Battle Droid]]s under their command, and fighting the Imperial stormtroopers aboard the ship.<br />
<br />
Notable incidents in this battle included the wookiee [[Ralgarrch]] squeezing into a turbo-lift maintenance shaft to chase the more nimble [[Siather]] during her attempts at escape, [[Keir Santage]] accidentally tossing an extra grenade into a fray resulting in damage to his own battle droids, the death of [[Doug|Doug the Battledroid]], and the baking of cookies in the mess hall after the battle was concluded by [[Adam A Flynn]]. [[Keir Santage]] also managed to rescue an injured female Imperial officer from a bacta tank, however it is unclear what happened to her after she escaped with him. Towards the end of the battle, the betrayal of Xarius Tylger was revealed. Xarius's droids were equipped with slave commands by Kuraine, and he took direct control to of them to attack Xarius. Tylger was wounded, but was able to initiate the command codes to the bombs he had smuggled aboard to destroy the ship. [[Squall Chitose]] was nearby and saved the ship by disarming the bombs and shooting Tylger in the face.<br />
<br />
Santage presented the ship to King Kuraine, who then turned and gifted the vessel to Hapan officer [[Alex Tylger]]. It is rumored that [[Roan Axios]] was gifted the ship by King Alex. As a result of the capture of the ''Shadowstone'', the [[Galactic Empire]] attacked the Fallen Federation's stronghold at [[Battle of Beta|Beta]].<br />

<hr />
<div>'''The Force''' is a metaphysical, binding, and ubiquitous power that held enormous importance for both the Jedi and Sith Orders. Known as "the Way" in ancient times, the Force is viewed in many different aspects, including, but are not limited to, the light side, the dark side, the Unifying Force, and the Living Force. The first two aspects were concerned with the moral compass of the Force, as manifested by the conduct and emotions of living creatures who were themselves part of the fabric of the Force. The light side of the Force is the facet aligned with compassion, selflessness, self-knowledge and enlightenment, healing, mercy and benevolence, while the dark side of the Force is the element aligned with hatred, fear, covetousness, anger, aggression, jealousy and malevolence. The latter two aspects are defined by prominent Jedi philosophies: The Unifying Force essentially embraces space and time in its entirety while the Living Force deals with the energy of living things. Though the Force is categorized in this way, there are no specific abilities or powers that were only usable by a follower of a different path of the Force; the Force partially existed inside the life forms that used it, and drew energy from their emotions.<br />
<br />
Some beings, particularly the Sith, believe that the Dark Side of the Force was more powerful than the light, though it is possible that the Dark Side was just more tempting to those who use it (or desired to use it). Others think of the Force as an entity capable of intelligent thought, almost as a sort of deity.<br />
<br />
Though the Force is thought to flow through every living thing, its power can only be harnessed by beings described as "Force-sensitive." This Force-sensitivity is correlated with, and sometimes attributed to, a high count of internal microorganisms called midi-chlorians that are found in a Force-sensitive's blood: the higher the count, the greater the being's potential Force ability, though there are some exceptions to this rule. Force-sensitive beings are able to tap into the Force to perform acts of great skill and agility as well as control and shape the world around them. Sometimes this ability was described as having a strong Force "aura."<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The oldest historic sources that speak about force-sensitive sentients date back to Year 2 Day 111. The two sentient beings were Piett (the former Emperor who had been supposedly lost in the Unknown Regions for 9 months) and Bodo Baas (a poweful Jedi Master). None of them ever told how they became aware of the Force and if they were already part of a chain of masters in the Force. It is nonetheless certain that from this old document it is possible to trace back the first Dark Jedi and the first Light Jedi from where all the current Jedi have derived. As a matter of fact, the number of force-sensitives in the galaxy started to increase when they both started looking for apprentices to take to their side. The spreading of force-sensitives and force rituals (even of different philosophy) naturally followed this moment in time.<br />
<br />
==Force Organisations==<br />
Over the Centuries, many Force- Sensitive Individuals have organised into groups of force users. Some of these Groups are created as a subdepartment of an existing Organisation. Others are associated with a particular organisation through the circumstances of history. There are also Force Users who hold no allegiance to any of the organisations listed below out of a desire to remain independent.<br />
<br />
===Light Side===<br />
The light side of the Force was concerned with the ideals of good, benevolence, and healing. Followers of the light side strove to live in harmony with the world around them, acting out of wisdom and logic rather than anger and hasty judgment. In order to achieve harmony with the light side of the Force, its practitioners would often meditate to clear themselves of emotion; particularly negative emotions such as aggression, fear, anger, and hatred, since these were thought to bring on acceptance of the dark side.<br />

* [[New Republic|Knights of the Republic]] - [[New Republic]]<br />
* [[Force Gardians| Jedi Medical]]<br />
* [[Order of Shasa]]<br />
<br />
===Dark Side===<br />
The dark side of the Force was considered by the Jedi to be the element aligned with fear, hatred, aggression, and malice toward all living things. Such emotions seemed to increase the strength and abilities of a user of the dark side, providing a path towards personal power and the destruction or control of all opposition. It was generally accepted that use of the dark side of the Force was extremely addictive.<br />
* [[Order of the Sith]] - [[Galactic Empire]]<br />
* [[Maurari]] - [[Black Sun]]<br />
<br />
===Unifying Force===<br />
The concept of the Unifying Force found fewer supporters within the Jedi Order than the Living Force. The concept of the Unifying Force was that the Force is a single entity and has neither a light nor a dark side. The Unifying Force was viewed as a deity that neither had sides nor chose them, treating all beings equally. Followers of the Unifying Force always kept their eyes open for future possibilities. In the end, it resulted in them trying to fulfill a destiny rather than focusing on here and now, as the Living Force supporter would do. <br />

* [[Anzatan Commonwealth|Fey'Da]] - [[Anzatan Commonwealth]]<br />
* [[Order of Krath]] - [[Krath Dynasty]]<br />
<br />
===Potentium===<br />
The Potentium view of the Force, not to be confused with the Unifying Force, was strictly disapproved by the old Jedi Order. While similar to the Unifying Force, which suggested that there was only one Force that did not take sides, the Potentium view stated that the Force and the galaxy in general were inherently good. According to this belief, the so-called dark side was not made up of specific "parts" or "abilities" of the Force: as espoused by the Light Side, it existed inside the life form which used it, made from their emotions. By that standard, and unlike the Light Side, all Potentium followers could perform any action and use the Force in any way they saw fit, as long as the intention behind it was good. In contrast, the Old Jedi Order acknowledged the existence of Potentium, but made it clear that it was subverting of the Jedi teaching and a way to misguide people to the dark side, or a means to serve it.<br />

===Alternate Views===<br />
*'''Chiss Sages''' - [[Chiss Ascendancy]]<br />
The '''Chiss Sages''' practice a variant of the Living Force, which is subdivided into two "schools":Light Sages(who follow the Light Side) and Dark Sages(who follow the Dark Side). The Chiss Sages follow a stoic philosophy, which focuses on observation and action only when necessary.<br />
<br />
*'''The Tikiars''' - [[Tresario Star Kingdom]]<br />
<br />
*'''Shades of the Force''' - [[Church of Reansucru]]<br />
The Church of Reansucru holds to the belief that the Force is more than just Good vs. Evil or Dark vs. Light. The beliefs of the Church come to view the Force as many things, all of which are characterized by 5 Shades. The Shades of the Force are: Red, Green, White, Blue, and Black. Each of the five shades embody the different aspects the manifest from the Force. <br />
<br />
*'''The Blazing Chain''' - [[Eidola]]<br />
The Blazing Chain is a group of force sensitive pirates who don't follow any particular alignment or philosophy. While not necessarily dark side users, the Blazing Chain uses the force to augment boarding parties and assist in other pirate operations.<br />

<br />
Aliit Chitose is a [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian Clan]] led by Aliit'alor [[Squall Chitose]]. The clan recognizes [[Kai Oryk]] as Mand'alor.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Squall Chitose accepted the way of the Mando'ade shortly after the Battle of Beta, in which his home and government was destroyed. After a short stint with the Rebel Alliance, Squall traveled the unknown regions, working as a mercenary. On one operation that went bad, Chitose was captured. During his capture, he hallucinated a vision of the Mandalorian god Kad Ha'rangir, the God of Life, Death, and Change. In return for his life, Squall promised a bloodbath to the god. During his escape, dozens of his captors were killed.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually joined Eidola, which he believes personifies the chaos of change that serves Kad Ha'rangir. In Eidola, he met another Mandalorian whom he befriended, [[Kai Oryk]]. Kai mentored Squall in the ways of the Mando'ade, and eventually reconstituted the nomadic people. Squall was, in turn, able to mentor a few younger pirates. These few became the basis of Clan Chitose.<br />
<br />
==Family==<br />
Aliit Chitose is known for not being as devoted to the resol'nare as other mandalorian clans. They typically only speak Mando'a in formal circumstances, such as the adoption of a new clan member. As pirates, they have looser morals than most. However, the clan are devoted to each other. <br />
<br />
Occasionally, the clan refers to themselves as "The Black Knives", after the Lictor-Class Cruiser that serves as their home. Their unofficial clan motto is "Black Knives don't kneel." <br />
<br />
==Armor==<br />
The Chitose Clan's official colors are orange and black, and their armor tends to be highly stylized. Chitose's armor is known for being bright orange with black trim, with his helmet having two horns protruding. This is an allusion to the stylized horned skull and crossbones that makes up the clan's logo.<br />
<br />
All members of the clan are permitted, and encouraged, to paint their armor according to their own individual sensibilities. Chitose's armor is the only full set of beskar'gam in the clan, but there are several partial sets. Other armors generally consist of Heavy Battle Armor and Imperial Royal Guard Armor. <br />
<br />

<br />
==Joining==<br />
Anybody can join as long as its agreed upon to accept them. Currently, the clan operates of the [[Lictor-class Dungeon Ship]] ''The Black Knife''. As a clan, they are noted for mostly being members of [[Eidola]], and not following the tenets of the [[Mando'ade]] as closely as other clans.<br />

Aliit Chitose is a [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian Clan]] led by Aliit'alor [[Squall Chitose]]. The clan recognizes [[Kai Oryk]] as Mand'alor.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Squall Chitose accepted the way of the Mando'ade shortly after the Battle of Beta, in which his home and government was destroyed. After a short stint with the Rebel Alliance, Squall traveled the unknown regions, working as a mercenary. On one operation that went bad, Chitose was captured. During his capture, he hallucinated a vision of the Mandalorian god Kad Ha'rangir, the God of Life, Death, and Change. In return for his life, Squall promised a bloodbath to the god. During his escape, dozens of his captors were killed.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually joined Eidola, which he believes personifies the chaos of change that serves Kad Ha'rangir. In Eidola, he met another Mandalorian whom he befriended, [[Kai Oryk]]. Kai mentored Squall in the ways of the Mando'ade, and eventually reconstituted the nomadic people. Squall was, in turn, able to mentor a few younger pirates. These few became the basis of Clan Chitose.<br />
<br />
==Family==<br />
Aliit Chitose is known for not being as devoted to the resol'nare as other mandalorian clans. They typically only speak Mando'a in formal circumstances, such as the adoption of a new clan member. As pirates, they have looser morals than most. However, the clan are devoted to each other. <br />
<br />
Occasionally, the clan refers to themselves as "The Black Knives", after the Lictor-Class Cruiser that serves as their home. Their unofficial clan motto is "Black Knives don't kneel." <br />
<br />
==Armor==<br />
The Chitose Clan's official colors are orange and black, and their armor tends to be highly stylized. Chitose's armor is known for being bright orange with black trim, with his helmet having two horns protruding. This is an allusion to the stylized horned skull and crossbones that makes up the clan's logo.<br />
<br />
All members of the clan are permitted, and encouraged, to paint their armor according to their own individual sensibilities. Chitose's armor is the only full set of beskar'gam in the clan, but there are several partial sets. Other armors generally consist of Heavy Battle Armor and Imperial Royal Guard Armor. <br />

<br />
==Joining==<br />
Anybody can join as long as its agreed upon to accept them. Currently, the clan operates of the [[Lictor-class Dungeon Ship]] ''The Black Knife''. As a clan, they are noted for mostly being members of [[Eidola]], and not following the tenets of the [[Mando'ade]] as closely as other clans.<br />

''''''Gráinne Ní Mháille'''''' (GnM) is a capital ship owned by the leader of [[Eidola]], Warlord [[Squall Chitose]]. Very little information is available on ''GnM'', other than whispers and exaggerated tales. Confirmed only is that the ship is a heavily modified YV-666, which gained considerable infamy for being used on some of [[Teniel Djo]]'s most infamous raids after its modification at her hands.<br />
<br />
''Gráinne Ní Mháille'' is also notable for having survived Djo's black hole suicide. All hands were lost, but the ship was salvaged by Eidolon Forces under the direction of the new Pirate King, Squall Chitose. He temporarily named the ship "Tempered Grace" in order to hide its existence from the general public, but upon its rediscovery, the ship was returned to its original name.<br />
<br />
The GnM is the fastest known capital-class ship in the galaxy, surpassed in speed only by [[Syn]]'s ''[[Solitaire]]''. <br />

Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]] and the Mandalorian Clan [[Chitose]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of Tatooine. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. He was childhood friends with former Black Sun leader Plojo Rosom, and romanced the Dark Prince’s sister briefly. As a child, Chitose’s past times were shooting and camping in the wilderness. When the Empire took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, Chitose’s parents were killed by the Empire as a show of force during the meeting. <br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He was able to hold off Imperial troops long enough to make it to Mos Eisley, where access some hidden assets of his parents. He was able to buy passage off Tatooine, and drifted for a few months before coming into contact with the Rebel Alliance.<br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an unavailability of slots made him eligible for That Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a lieutenant in the Cougar Company under High General Shae Briston. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to Captain. As the commander of Cougar Company, Chitose showed tactical brilliance to the degree that he was advanced to the rank of Major General, becoming the executive officer of the Marine Division in Planetary Command.<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by Lysander and David Salohah, the new SC.<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named Adam Zad. Squall learned a lot from Zad, but eventually left for the Imperial Army.<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, Under Colonel Maureen York. He quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was a contemporary of Mark DeMeer. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was corrupt, bloated, and evil. <br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. He was appointed commander of the Falleen Army, and later the Lord Commander of the entire Falleen Military. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the[[ Shadowstone]]. For his bravery and tactical ability, Chitose was awarded many decorations and granted the title of “Warlord” by King Kuraine.<br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of [[Nar Shaddaa]], Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor. <br />
<br />
Concurrent to the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, the defense of the Beta System was being planned. Squall was involved in the planning phases, and was set to jump into the system with reinforcements. Sadly, the Kuraine was murdered and the Ul-Yanin System was destroyed through the treachery of Tholin. With his home destroyed, Squall returned to Fallen Prime to help with the restructuring of the Falleen Federation. It was at his suggestion that Bisz took the Falleen Throne, though it was rumored that he was in contention for the position himself.<br />
<br />
After Bisz was coroneted, Squall resigned from the Federation. The devastation of the Battle of Beta extended into his personal life, and he and Asarya began having problems. They separated, with Squall wandering the galaxy. During this time, he was invited back into the Rebel Alliance with the commission of Colonel. He accepted, and helped General Cevin McClane get promoted. He was awarded with the position of second in command.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually stepped down from his command, opting to try to salvage the Malebranche Pirate operation that had been betrayed by Teniel Djo and left in ruins by the Draxs. Again, he left the known galaxy to become a mercenary in the outer rim. He left Malebranche under McClane’s direction, and it was promptly looted by Zachai Dracolis, an Eidola Pirate. Until Dracolis’s death, Chitose hated him.<br />
<br />
==Mandalorian==<br />
During his time in the Unknown Regions, Squall worked as a mercenary. On one operation, his party was defeated and he was captured. While undergoing torture, Chitose had a vision of Kad Ha'rangir, the Mandalorian God of Death and Life. He promised the God a lifetime of blood in exchange for his escape. Chitose’s escape from his captors is noted for the extraordinary violence he wrought upon them.<br />
<br />
==Kathol==<br />
<br />
Upon his return to from the Unknown Regions, Chitose was approached by Samuel Vimes, the leader of the Kathol Republic, to lead their military forces. Squall structured their military and led uneventfully until Vimes’ sudden temporary retirement. Squall took over the government, and had to deal with crisis involving the Eidola Pirates and the Tenloss Syndicate. He was able to tap into unknown diplomatic skills to prevent war between Kathol and the two groups.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
==Eidola==<br />
<br />
Squall worked on some smaller scale operations, until he murdered Kara Tamerin, an associate and family member of Auron Kun, on the holonet. This began his ascension in prominence in the pirating world. He was also able to board an imperial Star Galleon and murder Imperial Prefect Raelin Orlean and Imperial Army Office Aeia Tavell, who was actually the sister of the Director of Imperial Intelligence, Alexander Fel. <br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group with a plot in mind. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell. He was also able to hunt down and kill the remaining members of Yuma’s faction.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide in the [[Maw]]. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />

<div>[[File:SupremacyClassAttackShip.jpg||300px|right| ]]<br />
<br />
The '''Supremacy-class Attack Ship''' is rarely heard of any more. Few beings would even recognize one, if the opportunity presented itself, as the old ships have slipped from the history of galaxy and settled deep into the illusion of myth.<br />
<br />
Four millennia ago a sector commander of the Old Republic was sent to investigate a strange signal that had emanated from an unknown region of space known as X-110. He prepped his small fleet and leaped into hyperspace, but was never heard from again. Before an investigation could be conducted, the galaxy found itself in yet another galactic conflict, now known as the Sith Wars, and soon the small fleet was forgotten amongst bureaucracy of war.<br />
<br />
During yet another time of conflict, a number of wrecked vessels were discovered by Imperial forces loyal to [[Grand Admiral]] [[Veynom]], in an asteroid field within the X-110 system. The fleet marked the location before continuing on its way, the wrecks were later salvaged by a Hapan aristocrat. <br />
<br />
From the remains of the Old Republic fleet, the Supremacy-class Attack Ship was reborn. Its restoration was a monumental task, with the other wrecks that were found in the asteroid field being cannibalized for parts. While every effort was made to keep the original design intact, many upgrades to both shielding and armour were also implemented. The ship's hull was damaged beyond recognition — pitted and dented by thousands of years of asteroid collisions and exposure to large amounts of radiation. The engineers involved in the repairs worked around the clock for the better part of a year to bring this ship to its current glory. New armour plates were molded out of a revolutionary meleenium alloy, allowing the Supremacy-class Attack Ship to compete with more modern craft. New hard points were added for weapon placements and the extra weapons allow the attack ship to decimate formations of fighters, or defend itself from capital ship attacks.<br />
<br />
The last known Supremacy Attack Ship was used in [[Teniel Djo]]'s suicide. [[Eidola Pirates]] were then able to successfully retrieve it from [[The Maw]].<br />
<br />
==Affiliation==<br />
<br />
Last known Supremacy is was owned and operated by the Eidola Pirates for years, before being traded to a private buyer sometime in year 14.<br />
<br />

Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]] and the Mandalorian Clan [[Chitose]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of Tatooine. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. He was childhood friends with former Black Sun leader Plojo Rosom, and romanced the Dark Prince’s sister briefly. As a child, Chitose’s past times were shooting and camping in the wilderness. When the Empire took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, Chitose’s parents were killed by the Empire as a show of force during the meeting. <br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He was able to hold off Imperial troops long enough to make it to Mos Eisley, where access some hidden assets of his parents. He was able to buy passage off Tatooine, and drifted for a few months before coming into contact with the Rebel Alliance.<br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an unavailability of slots made him eligible for That Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a lieutenant in the Cougar Company under High General Shae Briston. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to Captain. As the commander of Cougar Company, Chitose showed tactical brilliance to the degree that he was advanced to the rank of Major General, becoming the executive officer of the Marine Division in Planetary Command.<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by Lysander and David Salohah, the new SC.<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named Adam Zad. Squall learned a lot from Zad, but eventually left for the Imperial Army.<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, Under Colonel Maureen York. He quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was a contemporary of Mark DeMeer. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was corrupt, bloated, and evil. <br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. He was appointed commander of the Falleen Army, and later the Lord Commander of the entire Falleen Military. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the[[ Shadowstone]]. For his bravery and tactical ability, Chitose was awarded many decorations and granted the title of “Warlord” by King Kuraine.<br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of [[Nar Shaddaa]], Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor. <br />
<br />
Concurrent to the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, the defense of the Beta System was being planned. Squall was involved in the planning phases, and was set to jump into the system with reinforcements. Sadly, the Kuraine was murdered and the Ul-Yanin System was destroyed through the treachery of Tholin. With his home destroyed, Squall returned to Fallen Prime to help with the restructuring of the Falleen Federation. It was at his suggestion that Bisz took the Falleen Throne, though it was rumored that he was in contention for the position himself.<br />
<br />
After Bisz was coroneted, Squall resigned from the Federation. The devastation of the Battle of Beta extended into his personal life, and he and Asarya began having problems. They separated, with Squall wandering the galaxy. During this time, he was invited back into the Rebel Alliance with the commission of Colonel. He accepted, and helped General Cevin McClane get promoted. He was awarded with the position of second in command.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually stepped down from his command, opting to try to salvage the Malebranche Pirate operation that had been betrayed by Teniel Djo and left in ruins by the Draxs. Again, he left the known galaxy to become a mercenary in the outer rim. He left Malebranche under McClane’s direction, and it was promptly looted by Zachai Dracolis, an Eidola Pirate. Until Dracolis’s death, Chitose hated him.<br />
<br />
==Mandalorian==<br />
During his time in the Unknown Regions, Squall worked as a mercenary. On one operation, his party was defeated and he was captured. While undergoing torture, Chitose had a vision of Kad Ha'rangir, the Mandalorian God of Death and Life. He promised the God a lifetime of blood in exchange for his escape. Chitose’s escape from his captors is noted for the extraordinary violence he wrought upon them.<br />
<br />
==Kathol==<br />
<br />
Upon his return to from the Unknown Regions, Chitose was approached by Samuel Vimes, the leader of the Kathol Republic, to lead their military forces. Squall structured their military and led uneventfully until Vimes’ sudden temporary retirement. Squall took over the government, and had to deal with crisis involving the Eidola Pirates and the Tenloss Syndicate. He was able to tap into unknown diplomatic skills to prevent war between Kathol and the two groups.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
==Eidola==<br />
<br />
Squall worked on some smaller scale operations, until he murdered Kara Tamerin, an associate and family member of Auron Kun, on the holonet. This began his ascension in prominence in the pirating world. He was also able to board an imperial Star Galleon and murder Imperial Prefect Raelin Orlean and Imperial Army Office Aeia Tavell, who was actually the sister of the Director of Imperial Intelligence, Alexander Fel. <br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group with a plot in mind. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell. He was also able to hunt down and kill the remaining members of Yuma’s faction.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide in the [[Maw]]. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />
<br />

Aliit Chitose is a [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian Clan]] led by Aliit'alor [[Squall Chitose]]. The clan recognizes [[Kai Oryk]] as Mand'alor.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Squall Chitose accepted the way of the Mando'ade shortly after the Battle of Beta, in which his home and government was destroyed. After a short stint with the Rebel Alliance, Squall traveled the unknown regions, working as a mercenary. On one operation that went bad, Chitose was captured. During his capture, he hallucinated a vision of the Mandalorian god Kad Ha'rangir, the God of Life, Death, and Change. In return for his life, Squall promised a bloodbath to the god. During his escape, dozens of his captors were killed.<br />
<br />
Squall eventually joined Eidola, which he believes personifies the chaos of change that serves Kad Ha'rangir. In Eidola, he met another Mandalorian whom he befriended, [[Kai Oryk]]. Kai mentored Squall in the ways of the Mando'ade, and eventually reconstituted the nomadic people. Squall was, in turn, able to mentor a few younger pirates. These few became the basis of Clan Chitose.<br />
<br />
==Family==<br />
Aliit Chitose is known for not being as devoted to the resol'nare as other mandalorian clans. They typically only speak Mando'a in formal circumstances, such as the adoption of a new clan member. As pirates, they have looser morals than most. However, the clan are devoted to each other. <br />
<br />
Occasionally, the clan refers to themselves as "The Black Knives", after the Lictor-Class Cruiser that serves as their home. Their unofficial clan motto is "Black Knives don't kneel." <br />
<br />
==Armor==<br />
The Chitose Clan's official colors are orange and black, and their armor tends to be highly stylized. Chitose's armor is known for being bright orange with black trim, with his helmet having two horns protruding. This is an allusion to the stylized horned skull and crossbones that makes up the clan's logo.<br />
<br />
All members of the clan are permitted, and encouraged, to paint their armor according to their own individual sensibilities. Chitose's armor is the only full set of beskar'gam in the clan, but there are several partial sets. Other armors generally consist of Heavy Battle Armor and Imperial Royal Guard Armor. <br />
<br />
==Joining==<br />
Anybody can join as long as its agreed upon to accept them. Currently, the clan operates of the [[Lictor-class Dungeon Ship]] ''The Black Knife''. As a clan, they are noted for mostly being members of [[Eidola]], and not following the tenets of the [[Mando'ade]] as closely as other clans.<br />

In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, Under Colonel Maureen York. He quickly rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was a contemporary of Mark DeMeer. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was evil and stagnant. And afterall, they did kill his parents.<br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the Shadowstone.<br />

Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor.<br />
<br />
Squall tried many things after the death of Kuraine. For awhile, he allied with the Draxes and worked with them. After the theft of much of their inventory, Squall eventually came to lead the Malebranche Pirates. However, due to his struggling relationship with his wife and children, he decided to take a leave of absence. During his LOA, Malebranche was stripped by elements of [[Eidola]]. Squall left, and went back to the Rebel Alliance. Within a short time, Squall rose to second in command of the Alliance Army.<br />
<br />
Squall grew disgusted with the political machine the Alliance had become, in particular Frollo. He soon left, and started to run his own organization, PHILANTHROPY. However, Squall was offered a position as head of the Kathol Republic's military. He accepted, and set out to structure their military. He succeeded, but again, politics got in the way. Samuel Vimes - Kathol's leader - fell ill and Squall filled in for him for a short time. In this time, Squall tapped into his unknown diplomatic skills to avert disaster at the hands of Eidola and Tenloss.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
Squall began to rise in prominence once again by murdering Kara Tamerin. Upon her execution, Squall was able to steal her personal YT-510, called ''The Memory'' or ''Rick''. Squall later renamed the ship ''Red Hare''.<br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group. Eventually, he grew tired of Joni hobbnobbing with IU higher-ups, and her vile-flattery. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />

Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of Tatooine. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. He was childhood friends with former Black Sun leader Plojo Rosom, and romanced the Dark Prince’s sister briefly. As a child, Chitose’s past times were shooting and camping in the wilderness. When the Empire took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, Chitose’s parents were killed by the Empire as a show of force during the meeting. <br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He was able to hold off Imperial troops long enough to make it to Mos Eisley, where access some hidden assets of his parents. He was able to buy passage off Tatooine, and drifted for a few months before coming into contact with the Rebel Alliance.<br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an inavailability of slots made him eligible for the Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a [[Rank|lieutenant]] in the Cougar company under High General [[Shae Briston]]. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to [[Rank|Captain]]. Then, shortly afterwards, he was skipped to the rank of [[Rank|Major General]].<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by [[Davvyk Lysander]] and [[David Salohah]], the new SC.<br />
<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named [[Adam Zad]]. Squall learned alot from Zad, but eventually left for the [[Imperial Army]].<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, under Colonel [[Maureen York]]. He quickly rose to the rank of [[Rank|Sergeant]], and was a contemporary of [[Mark DeMeer]]. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was evil and stagnant. And after all, they did kill his parents.<br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
[[Image:Squall Chitose Old Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|148px|Squall during his tenure in [[Kuraine]]'s Armed Forces.]]<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by [[Eldrik Kuraine]], where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, [[Finn Setanta]]. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the Shadowstone.<br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of [[Nar Shaddaa]], Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor.<br />
<br />
Squall tried many things after the death of Kuraine. For awhile, he allied with the Draxes and worked with them. After the theft of much of their inventory, Squall eventually came to lead the Malebranche Pirates. However, due to his struggling relationship with his wife and children, he decided to take a leave of absence. During his LOA, Malebranche was stripped by elements of [[Eidola]]. Squall left, and went back to the Rebel Alliance. Within a short time, Squall rose to second in command of the Alliance Army.<br />
<br />
Squall grew disgusted with the political machine the Alliance had become, in particular Frollo. He soon left, and started to run his own organization, PHILANTHROPY. However, Squall was offered a position as head of the Kathol Republic's military. He accepted, and set out to structure their military. He succeeded, but again, politics got in the way. Samuel Vimes - Kathol's leader - fell ill and Squall filled in for him for a short time. In this time, Squall tapped into his unknown diplomatic skills to avert disaster at the hands of Eidola and Tenloss.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
Squall began to rise in prominence once again by murdering Kara Tamerin. Upon her execution, Squall was able to steal her personal YT-510, called ''The Memory'' or ''Rick''. Squall later renamed the ship ''Red Hare''.<br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group. Eventually, he grew tired of Joni hobbnobbing with IU higher-ups, and her vile-flattery. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while [[Teniel Djo]] was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />

The '''Battle of Beta''', also known as '''Operation Morning Thunder''', '''Operation Beta''', and the '''Beta Campaign''', was a major battle in the ongoing [[Galactic Civil War]] in which [[Emperor]] [[Greyson Uebles]]' [[Galactic Empire]] grappled with King [[Eldrik Kuraine]]'s [[Falleen Federation]] and its allies for control of the [[Beta]] system (later renamed by astral cartographers as the [[Loronar]] system). Occurring between [[Year 4|Year 4 Day 338]] and [[Year 5|Year 5 Day 8]], the engagement was one of the largest invasions in the recorded annals of warfare with a number of famous military leaders involved in the fray. Many veterans of the battle would later become notable figures in galactic history.<br />
<br />
An uncharted system, [[Beta]] was first discovered by the Empire during its unsuccessful search for former [[Grand Admiral]] [[Gorn Veynom]]. The system later became a Falleen stronghold and a defiant symbol of King Kuraine's expanding hegemony. Circa [[Year 4]], King Kuraine enticed [[Vir Calder]], a dissatisfied Imperial Moff, to defect to the Falleen Federation and to abscond with the [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] ''[[Shadowstone]]''. This incident provoked the Imperial High Command to mobilize their forces and to invade the Beta system with a colossal strike-force commanded by [[Grand Admiral]] [[Black Lodge]]. Prior to this planned invasion, they were contacted by Prince [[Tholin Dur'aak]], a disgruntled Fallen noble, who offered to betray Kuraine.<br />
<br />
Thus, shortly before the actual battle occurred, King Kuraine and his consort [[Kalina Ulaeri]] were slain by three masked Sith assassins &mdash; [[Adric Simms]], [[Thraken Solo]], and [[Locus]] &mdash; while aboard the ''Shadowstone'''s bridge due to clandestine assistance from Dur'aak.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> With Kuraine assassinated, the Empire moved to secure the Beta system. Attacking in two separate waves, the [[Super Star Destroyer]] ''[[Sovereign]]'', nine Imperial Star Destroyers, and a variety of escort ships exited hyperspace to match their strength against the defense forces of the Falleen Federation and, its ally, [[Supreme Commander]] [[Avatar Voidrunner]]'s [[Rebel Alliance]]. Ultimately, Lord Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] of the [[Falleen Federation|Falleen Navy]] could not stem the tide of invading Imperial vessels and undertook a strategic withdrawal from the system.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> Now in uncontested control of the battlefield, the Imperial forces emerged victorious and with minimal losses. The massive Falleen Federation-controlled space station ''[[Libra]]'' was subsequently obliterated, and the entire populations of Ul Yanin and Ulrike were allegedly exterminated by the [[Imperial Army]] commanded by Brigadier General [[Durand|Durand Somerville]].<ref name="Beta System Cleansed">[http://web.archive.org/web/20040315175758/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=164&category=20 GNS: "Beta System Cleansed" - Year 5 Day 12]</ref><br />
<br />
The Battle of Beta remains infamous to this day for its marked disregard for civilian casualties. Its aftermath, in which the Empire conducted a systematic extermination of life-forms on the planets Ul Yanin and Ulrike, resulted in disputed casualties ranging from 103 million<ref name="Empire in Error"/> to 1.5 billion sentient beings.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/> Overall, the demise of the Falleen monarch, his unforeseen betrayal by a revered Falleen noble, the Imperial conquest of the Beta system, the fiery destruction of the prized ''Libra'' battle station, and the heinous genocide of defenseless Falleen colonists made the conflict a defining moment in the early years of the galactic civil war.<br />

An uncharted system, [[Beta]] was first discovered during the search for the legendary former Grand Admiral [[Gorn Veynom]] whose disappearance into the [[Unknown Regions]] foreshadowed the [[Second Imperial Civil War]]. At that time, the Beta system was the symbolic stronghold of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]]'s Falleen Federation and contained two keys planets, [[Ul Yanin]] and [[Ulrike]], as well as the battle station known as ''[[Libra]]''. An estimated three billion Falleens dwelled on the main planet of Ul Yanin. <br />
<br />
Circa [[Year 4]], King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] of the [[Falleen Federation]] conspired with a disgruntled Imperial governor, [[Moff]] [[Vir Calder]], to steal the modified [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial Class Star Destroyer]] ''[[Shadowstone]]'' from the [[Imperial Navy]]. According to surviving records, Calder misappropriated Imperial funds in order to purchase a large contingent of battle droids. At an opportune moment, Calder defected to the Falleen Federation and brought the prized vessel with him. Shortly thereafter, a motley raiding party &mdash; which included [[Jace Meridan]], [[Airoria Celestian]], [[Keir Santage]], [[Ralgarrch]], [[Squall Chitose]] and many others &mdash; boarded the Star Destroyer and, utilizing Calder's contingent of battle droids, overpowered the loyal Imperial crew garrisoned aboard the vessel. <br />
<br />
The news of this brazen and outrageous heist under the Empire's very nose shocked the galaxy and angered the [[Imperial High Command]]. In response, the Imperial High Command assembled on [[Coruscant]] for a top-secret meeting. During the subsequent hours of debate, [[Emperor]] [[Greyson Uebles]] decided to undertake a full retaliation against both Kuraine and the Falleen people. At this time, a disturbance in the Force impelled Lord [[Vodo Bonias]], a key Imperial dignitary who had been absent for several months, to interrupt his hermetic meditations on the Dark Side and to return to Coruscant in order to oversee the forthcoming battle.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Greyson Uebles 2.jpg|thumb|left|130px|[[Greyson Uebles]]]]<br />
Realizing his meager Falleen forces were no match against the Emperor's legions, Kuraine paid the [[Rebel Alliance]] to assist in the defense of the Beta system. In response, the Alliance dispatched three [[Jedi|Jedi Masters]] &mdash; [[Avatar Voidrunner]], [[Reajiad Nero]], and [[Thies Windu]] &mdash; to the Beta system to advise and to rally the beleaguered defenders. The rebels also began preparations to send a fleet under the command of [[Phymp Mindano]]. At the same time, Kuraine informed his officers and followers that he would not lead the battle and instead he would remain aboard the ''Shadowstone''. Kuraine appointed a seasoned [[Mandalorian]] warrior, Lord Commander [[Zechs Darius]], and his subordinates to defend his stronghold against the impending attack of the Imperial war machine.<br />
<br />
While the Falleen Federation planned the defense of the Beta system, Emperor Uebles, Executor [[Jennifer Dreighton]], [[Adric Simms]] (a.k.a. Darth Knyte), and Vodo Bonias devised a plan to infiltrate Kuraine's flagship, the stolen [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] ''Shadowstone'' and assassinate him. They clandestinely persuaded a disgruntled Falleen prince [[Tholin Dur'aak]] &mdash; the former monarch of the Falleen Federation &mdash; and asked him to betray both his homeworld and his people. Believing the Federation and the Rebel Alliance had little hope of success against the Empire, Dur'aak agreed to betray his comrades on the condition that all Falleen personnel, as well as the innocent civilians of Ul Yanin and Ulrike, would be spared.<br />
<br />
==Prelude==<br />
===Initial Plans===<br />
[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Holoprojector_Planets.png|thumb|230px|right|Capturing the planets of [[Ul Yanin]] and [[Ulrike]] was the primary objective in hypothetical battle-plans discussed by Imperial strategists.]]<br />
In their preliminary battle plans, the Imperial strategists suggested marshaling their forces into a single colossal fleet with only three vessels held in reserve: The [[Victory Star Destroyer I]] ''Darkness'' commanded by [[Crog]], the [[Victory Star Destroyer I]] ''Adjudicator'' commanded by [[Ral Hoffner]], and the [[Carrack/I-class Light Cruiser]] ''Rapier'' commanded by [[Mythrantar]]. Hypothetically, the Imperial battle group was expected to hyper-jump into the system and lure the enemy Y-Wings away from their rally point. This tentative plan involved three waves: The first wave would consist of [[Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wing]] vessels colloquially known as "Cygnus Gunboats" and the second wave would be composed of [[TIE Fighter]]s. <br />
<br />
In this unrealized plan, this double-wave would provide a fighter screen for the incoming third wave of Imperial capital ships. This fighter screen was to be coordinated by Commodore [[Daelin Zerk]] with Captain [[Dimitri]] as his second-in-command. Behind this fighter screen, a picket line of Carrack cruisers would exit hyperspace in order to intercept proton torpedoes and enemy starfighters that strayed too close. After the picket line, five Victory-class Star Destroyers would follow. When one came under fire, the other ships would pivot and would physically block the incoming attack vector. Behind these five VSDs, the ISD ''Nemesis'' and the VSD ''Malevolence'' would wade into the fray. While developing these battle plans, codenames were assigned to the key targets by the Imperial strategists. The planet Ul Yanin was codenamed "Sebastopol" in Imperial transmissions, and Ulrike designated "Phyrrus."<br />
<br />
===A Traitor's Price===<br />

[[Image:Tholin Dur'aak Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|150px|[[Tholin Dur'aak]] agreed to betray King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] to the [[Galactic Empire]].]]<br />
During this planning phase, Prince Tholin Dur'aak of the [[Falleen Federation]] clandestinely approached Sith Lord Vodo Bonias and stated he would surrender the Federation into the Empire's hands. Tholin's unexpected betrayal was motivated by his well-known displeasure with King Kuraine's obstinate refusal to heed his advice and his firm conviction that Kuraine was selfishly jeopardizing the Falleen Federation in order to further his personal feuds. Tholin believed that Kuraine had placed the entire Federation in danger due to his ongoing vendetta against the Empire and that culminated in the theft of the Imperial Star Destroyer ''[[Shadowstone]]''. While Tholin did not always concur with the Empire's methods, he feared their martial strength and recognized that resistance was futile. As such, Tholin graciously offered to provide the Empire with the coordinates of Kuraine and his stolen ship, the ISD ''[[Shadowstone]]''. Although the vessel was in hyperspace, Tholin knew its intended destination. According to fragmented records, Vodo Bonias called upon his arcane powers of darkness to open a wormhole and pulled Prince Tholin out of his Y-Wing to the command room aboard the VSD ''Widowmaker''.<br />
<br />
Now an Imperial operative, Tholin not only provided the exit coordinates of King Kuraine's vessel, but he also provided sensitive data regarding the strategical deployment of Rebel Alliance's defense forces in the Beta system. He informed Bonias that three famous [[Jedi|Jedi master]]s &mdash; [[Avatar Voidrunner]], [[Reajiad Nero]], and [[Thies Windu]] &mdash; were garrisoned aboard the ''Libra'' battle station. To Vodo's delight, Tholin also revealed that [[Vir Calder]], a former Moff and an Imperial traitor, was sequestered aboard the defense station near the planet Ulrike.<br />
<br />
Acting upon Tholin's information, Bonias devised a covert plan: Utilizing the unholy powers of the Dark Side, he would manifest two wormholes to the ''Shadowstone''. Bonias, Solo, and Locus would enter through one. Admiral Adric Simms would enter the second wormhole with Brigadier General [[Durand]], Major [[Joshua Chamberlain]], and a stormtrooper contingent. While the Sith captured Kuraine and his consort, Simms and [[Imperial Army]] personnel would storm the ship. While discussing this plan, Bonias was adamant that he personally slay Kuraine due to the personal feud existing between Kuraine and himself. In Vodo's mind, Kuraine felt abandoned after Vodo turned his back to him because of his business dealings with [[Felix]]. Once Kuraine was slain, Tholin would signal [[Jace Meridan]], commander of the Falleen Federation's military forces, to sign a treaty with the Empire. <br />
[[Image:Battle of Beta Inset Many Informers.png|thumb|260px|left|During the planning phase, the [[Galactic Empire]] benefited from numerous informants providing intelligence about the [[Falleen]] defenses.]]<br />
As payment for his treachery, Jace Meridan asked that he be bequeathed all of Kuraine's property except for his credits. Kuraine's credits would be confiscated and invested into [[Cloud City]] &mdash; the Imperial mining company &mdash; and [[Blue Sabre Transportation]]. The Federation would arrest Vir Calder at the station and withdraw their forces from the Beta system. They would lower the defenses of the ''Libra'' station and allow Imperial forces to storm the bastion. The Empire would dispatch a force of 10,000 shock troops to Ul Yanin and lay waste to everything in sight including Lady General [[Mia DeMornay]]'s [[Loronar Security]] which was headquartered on the planet's surface.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20030823063123/http://www.swcombine.com/cmg/cmginfo.php?category_id=1&cmg=Loronar+Security Loronar Security - Description] (Archived)</ref> <br />
<br />
Vodo insisted that two Lancer Frigates should be transported via Blue Sabre Transportation to the edge of the Beta system to provide the Empire with support against the incoming Rebel Alliance forces. He anticipated the Alliance would be shocked by the betrayal of the Falleen troops and the rebels would find themselves alone, surprised, and outnumbered. The Imperial Navy would then swarm [[Phymp Mindano]]'s rebel fleet while the Army would conduct mop-up operations on the two worlds. In the long run, most of Bonias' plan did not come to fruition as unfolding events considerably altered both the timeline and plans for the battle.<br />
<br />
===A Dark Conspiracy===<br />

Once Tholin had been wormholed aboard the Star Destroyer ''Widowmaker'', the assembled Imperial Command Staff began outlining the proposed operation to assassinate Falleen monarch. The mission itself was dubbed "Operation Witching Hour." It was agreed that, upon the ghastly death of Kuraine at the hands of Sith, Tholin and Jace Meridan would order the Falleen forces to stand down and then negotiate a cease-fire with the Galactic Empire. All Falleen troops would be ordered to cease attacking Imperial vessels. Additionally the planetary defenses of Ul Yanin &mdash; in particular the shield projectors for ''Libra'' station &mdash; would be powered down. The Falleen forces garrisoned aboard the ''Libra'' and the other nearby stations would be ordered to attack all non-compliant persons including the three Jedi masters from the Rebel Alliance. Above all, Vodo demanded the grisly death of Vir Calder, a former Moff of the Fakir Sector and an Imperial traitor, who was hiding aboard one of the other defense stations.<br />
<br />
Faced with the death of Kuraine and commanded by a Sith puppet, the Imperial conspirators expected the Falleen forces would be easily swayed into attacking their incoming rebel allies and would not intervene with Empire's forces cleansing the system. Upon completion of the planned battle, ''Libra'' would be obliterated and all holdings in the system made over to the Empire to administer with a military governor until a new treaty between the Galactic Empire and the new Falleen government was signed. The Falleen Federation would become an obedient satellite of the Empire and they would receive a paltry sector to rule in the Empire's name with limited autonomy.<br />

[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Bonias_Wormhole.png|thumb|275px|right|Using the unholy powers of the [[The Force|Dark Side]], [[Vodo Bonias]] created a [[The Force|force wormhole]] through which he portaled [[Order of the Sith|Sith assassins]] onto the ISD ''[[Shadowstone]]''.]]<br />
At the appointed hour, Tholin Dur'aak attempted to establish a communication link to the ISD ''Shadowstone''. As none were aware of his betrayal, he successfully opened up a holovid connection to Kuraine who had a holoprojector with him. With their target's position now pin-pointed, Vodo Bonias used the Dark Side of the Force to open a wormhole to the ''Shadowstone'' through which Adric Simms (a.k.a. "Darth Tenebrius"), Thraken Solo (a.k.a. "Darth Xeres"), and Locus (a.k.a. "Darth Sedulus") entered. Before stepping into the wormhole, Simms quickly turned around to face Prince Tholin and smiled. In a chilling voice, Simms remarked: "If all goes according to plan, there will be a new king crowned this day."<br />
<br />
Portaling through space and time, the three masked Sith materialized on the bridge of the ISD ''Shadowstone''. The sudden appearance of the Sith assassins momentarily shocked King Kuraine, his consort Kalina Ulaeri, and the bridge crew of thirty personnel. The twenty War Droids stationed on the bridge sprang to life as their scanners detected the new intruders, but Solo instantly powered them down by transmitting codes provided by Tholin Dur'aak. Exploiting the element of surprise, Simms used the Force and hurled Kuraine against a wall leaving him stunned. He likewise threw Kalina and her two bodyguards backwards. Igniting his lightsaber, Simms rushed the stunned Falleen king and cut him in half. He then re-opened a wormhole to the SSD ''Sovereign'' using the Holonet connection as his link. While Simms beheaded the Falleen king, Solo approached Kalina who was crawling on the floor and cowering in fear. As she cried out Kuraine's name, Solo executed her with his saber. The third Sith warrior, Locus, attacked the two nearest guards that drew their weapons and killed them. All but three Falleen guards stood and watched as Kuraine and Kalina died. With their bloody handiwork completed in under one minute, the Sith disappeared again into wormhole to the SSD ''Sovereign'' and sent a triumphant message to initiate phase two of the invasion. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile on Beta, a nervous Prince Tholin awaited news of his sovereign's assassination. He had risked his life, fortune, and reputation on the plot, and he was understandably anxious to know the outcome. Upon receiving confirmation of Kuraine's demise, Tholin secretly rejoiced. Regaining his composure, he assumed a more somber expression and hailed the Falleen Federation on an open channel: "The king is dead." Tholin then notified his men regarding the change of leadership.<br />
<br />
===Defenders Retreat===<br />

[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Brief_Skirmish.png|thumb|260px|right|Following Kuraine's murder, a brief skirmish occurred between the rival fleets before Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] ordered a Falleen withdrawal.]]<br />
Due to intelligence provided by Tholin Dur'aak and Jace Meridan on the Falleen defenses, the initial Imperial plan of a three-wave attack had been scrapped and a two-wave strategy had been devised instead. Thus the first wave of Imperial forces entered the Beta system consisting of ten Star Destroyers and their escorts. The invaders monitored all sub-space transmissions in order to pinpoint the enemy reinforcements and to confirm Tholin's information about the deployment of Falleen defense forces. In a sub-space transmission, the system was declared quarantined by the Empire and they announced that [[The Wraiths]], a Hapes-affiliated mercenary unit garrisoned at Beta, may leave the system unharmed as a token of Imperial goodwill towards the [[Hapes Consortium|Hapan government]]. The Wraiths consented, but delayed leaving the system in order to evacuate more civilians. Faced with the Wraith's intransigence, the Imperial units were given permission to attack them on sight. <br />
<br />
Upon receiving word from Tholin Dur'aak that three Sith assassins &mdash; Adric Simms, [[Thraken Solo]] and Locus &mdash; had slain the beloved sovereign Kuraine aboard the command deck of the ISD ''Shadowstone'', the Falleen Federation reeled in shock. Amid the confusion, Fleet Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] was duly chosen to succeed Kuraine as monarch of the Falleen Federation. The ensuing rumors about Kuraine's demise and Tholin's treachery created a crippling division in the Falleen ranks. At this critical moment, the Rebel Alliance fleet commanded by [[Phymp Mindano]] exited hyperspace and joined the Falleen Federation's forces in the Beta system. All eyes now turned to the invading Imperial fleet.<br />
<br />
In this tense moment, the Empire presented their stunned adversaries with an ultimatum: The Federation could comply with the terms of a negotiated surrender and spare the lives of billions of their citizens, or they could all be crushed beneath the iron-fist of Grand Admiral Black Lodge. Desperate to win a lopsided battle, Aldaris allegedly proposed the Falleen forces should feign surrender in order to launch a surprise attack. However, this plan was reported by Imperial spies and, consequently, Grand Admiral Black Lodge began the annihilation of the Falleen and Rebel fleets in the Beta system.<ref name="Empire in Error"/><br />
<br />
[[Image:The Wraiths Emblem.png|150px|thumb|left|[[The Wraiths]] tried to evacuate the Beta system.]]<br />
By this time, the second wave of the Imperial fleet, consisting of several Star Destroyers and escort ships coalesced around the SSD ''Sovereign'', had entered the system upon the confirmed death of Kuraine. These forces were instructed to be wary of the enemy launching boarding teams to try and seize Imperial ships. All pilots and commanders were ordered to immediately target any ship that might carry such assault troops. <br />
<br />
The two Imperial fleets united. The fleet formed up around the SSD ''Sovereign'' and the ISD both are assigned a Lancer frigate as close area screening. The Victory star destroyers formed a semi-sphere in front of the SSD to shield it in the approach phase until the capital ships are in weapons range. Expecting long range torpedo fire to be inbound, they moved to shield the two heaviest units as they were likely to receive the most fire. An accomplished tactician, Grand Admiral Lodge concentrated on this formation pattern to ensure maximum efficiency. <br />
<br />
They met little resistance as the main defense forces clustered around the planet Ul Yanin and the space station ''Libra'' in its orbit. They proceeded to tackle an enemy strike force that initially gathered to obstruct the deployment in system. A light skirmish ensued. Before reaching turbolaser range, the SSD and the VSDs prepared to fire a full torpedo volley at the rebel capital ships, followed by concentrated turbolaser and ion fire as soon as they closed in, starting with the heaviest enemy in descending order.<br />
<br />
However, shortly after the light skirmish began, Aldaris ordered a strategic withdrawal.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> The bulk of the naval defense force fled without exchanging shots with the Imperial fleet. While the rest of the Falleen and Rebel forces retreated into hyperspace, a single Dreadnaught captained by the courageous Lord Commander [[Zechs Darius]] chose to remain behind. Broadcasting on Imperial communication frequencies, Darius sent a defiant sub-space transmission that publicly challenged Emperor Uebles to a duel aboard the Dreadnaught.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> He taunted Uebles and urged him to face him in in a heroic battle to the death, an offer which the Emperor purportedly spurned.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> With his challenged declined and Star Destroyers closing in, Darius was forced to retreat into hyperspace.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Battle of Beta Inset Libra Destroyed.png|200px|thumb|right|The ''[[Libra]]'' station was reduced to a cloud of radioactive dust.]]<br />
Understanding the battle was lost, the three Jedi aboard the ''Libra'' battle station likewise retreated from the system.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/> Their escape was just in time as a daring landing maneuver by an Imperial Army Special Ops team consisting of six commandos &mdash; [[Simms]], Thraken, Locus, Durand, [[Tyr DeMeer]] and [[Raider Aspect]] &mdash; soon disabled both the defense grid of Ul Yanin and the shield projectors for the ''Libra'' battle station.<br />
<br />
With the shield projectors now disabled, Grand Admiral Black Lodge calmly instructed the Imperial fleet to destroy ''Libra'' station, the pride of the Falleen Federation. Although one of the largest and most technologically advanced space stations in the galaxy, Lodge knew the ''Libra'' station couldn't survive a fusillade by a dozen Star Destroyers. The continuous discharge of red and green turbolaser fire from the Imperial fleet illuminated the darkness of space in alternating hues. Thousands of Falleen survivors aboard the station tried to surrender at this point, but their pleas were ignored. Any escape pods were summarily destroyed by Zero-G stormtroopers. At last, the ''Libra'' station burst into a supernova, creating a spectacular heavenly display.<br />
<br />
The Imperial fleet sublighted through the floating cloud of radioactive dust and charred debris that once was the galaxy's largest space station and approached the twin planets of Ul Yanin and Ulrike. Grand Admiral Black Lodge were determined to teach the Falleen people a lesson that they would never forget.<br />
<br />
==Aftermath==<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = No trace of civilization on these two planets will remain. By today 20.00 Imperial Standard time, Executor Lodge received orders to perform a full Base Delta Zero maneuver over both planets. This means the total destruction of the planetary surface from orbit. The planets will be left barren and uninhabitable for all time... <br />
|person = [[Greyson Uebles|Emperor Greyson Uebles of the Galactic Empire]], [http://web.archive.org/web/20050121213301/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=164&category=20 ''"Beta System Cleansed"'' - Year 5 Day 12]}}<br />
[[Image:Black Lodge Avatar Year 13.jpg|150px|thumb|The Imperial forces of [[Black Lodge]] decimated the civilian population of [[Ul Yanin]].]]<br />
As the Falleen government did not acquiesce to Uebles' provisos for capitulation, he dispassionately ordered the decimation of a conjectured 1.5 billion Falleen and foreign nationals on both planetary surfaces. Savoring his freshly-won victory, Uebles coldly insisted that "no trace of civilization" should remain in the Beta system. Thus, by 20.00 Imperial Standard Time, Black Lodge received orders to perform a Base Delta Zero maneuver over both worlds.<br />
<br />
The SSD ''Sovereign'' unleashed the first salvo at Ul Yanin's capital. Hundreds of turbolaser batteries and missile launchers spit fiery death below in a merciless barrage. Terrorized inhabitants watched in abject horror as the first blasts struck and tremendous explosions engulfed their cities. TIE Bombers menaced the atmosphere and dropped high-density payloads onto every visible target. Overseen by the white-haired Grand Admiral Black Lodge, the Star Destroyers in orbit pummeled the defenseless planets for twelve standard hours with rapid turbolaser fire and relentless missile attacks. As a consequence, large regions were rendered uninhabitable and acrid smoke billowed from both hemispheres. Every major city was thoroughly gutted with tactical precision.<br />
<br />
With the orbital bombardment completed, the mustachioed General Durand Somerville of the [[Imperial Army]] deployed his ground forces on Ul Yanin and Ulrike. He dispatched an Imperial legion of approximately fifty thousand troops, hundreds of Imperial AT-AT Walkers, and other assault vehicles. His shock-troops scoured the broken hovels, dragged the ash-covered survivors from the rubble, and then executed them in wrecked streets made slippery with blood. The sounds of blaster fire and the screams of victims filled the air.<br />
<br />
As news of the wanton butchery spread across the HoloNet, Imperial propagandists claimed such carnage could have been avoided if the Falleen Federation had gracefully ceded the system. Meanwhile, Aldaris had regrouped the Falleen fleet at a distant rendezvous point and held a funeral ceremony to eulogize their fallen sovereign. He proclaimed that, "Although King Kuraine perished, his example of standing up to the Empire will live on forever through the stories of how the Federation captured the pride of the Empire, the Star Destroyer ''Shadowstone''. Though he gave his life for that earlier victory, the King never wavered from the Falleen belief in liberty, equality and justice, in other words, opposition to the Empire and the tyranny it stands for."<ref name="Empire in Error"/> According to Imperial propaganda, Kuraine's severed head was later presented as a gift to Emperor Uebles by his Sith acolytes and served as a public warning to those who might commit future crimes against the Empire.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Planet_Graveyard.png|thumb|260px|right|The planet of Ul Yanin became a barren rock after the Imperial fleet bombarded its cities.]]<br />
The Beta system became an eerie morgue, haunted by the collective memory of the battle and its genocidal aftermath. The alleged cowardice of the three Jedi masters who retreated from the Beta system embarrassed the Jedi Order. Aldaris later hailed the three Jedi masters as heroes who "remained as long as possible"<ref name="Empire in Error"/> while the Empire accused the trio of unpardonable cowardice.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/><br />
<br />
Although the Falleen Federation claimed to have broken through the Imperial blockade and evacuated millions from the Beta system with the paid assistance of [[The Wraiths]], many historians believe the bulk of the civilian population was left behind. As a result, the Empire exterminated an estimated 1.5 billion Falleen on both worlds.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20040315180015/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=182&category=20 GNS: "Press Release by the Infinite Innovations Corporation" - Year 5 Day 21]</ref> However, Falleen officials contracted these figures and insisted that only 103 million civilians perished.<ref name="Empire in Error"/><br />
<br />
Falleen and allied casualties are estimated at 1.5 billion while Imperial casualties were less then five hundred. The Falleen Federation's monarch and his consort Kalina, plus two other high ranking personnel, were dead, two planets destroyed, taking with them at least a third of the total Falleen population and infrastructure. ''Libra'' station and two other Falleen Federation space stations have been destroyed along with about a dozen enemy ships, while the Empire didn't lose a single fighter.<br />
<br />
Prince Tholin was later pardoned by Aldaris and appointed Minister of Culture in the Falleen Federation.<br />

The '''Battle of Beta''', also known as '''Operation Morning Thunder''', '''Operation Beta''', and the '''Beta Campaign''', was a major battle in the ongoing [[Galactic Civil War]] in which [[Emperor]] [[Greyson Uebles]]' [[Galactic Empire]] grappled with King [[Eldrik Kuraine]]'s [[Falleen Federation]] and its allies for control of the [[Beta]] system (later renamed by astral cartographers as the [[Loronar]] system). Occurring between [[Year 4|Year 4 Day 338]] and [[Year 5|Year 5 Day 8]], the engagement was one of the largest invasions in the recorded annals of warfare with a number of famous military leaders involved in the fray. Many veterans of the battle would later become notable figures in galactic history.<br />
<br />
An uncharted system, [[Beta]] was first discovered by the Empire during its unsuccessful search for former [[Grand Admiral]] [[Gorn Veynom]]. The system later became a Falleen stronghold and a defiant symbol of King Kuraine's expanding hegemony. Circa [[Year 4]], King Kuraine enticed [[Vir Calder]], a dissatisfied Imperial Moff, to defect to the Falleen Federation and to abscond with the [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] ''[[Shadowstone]]''. This incident provoked the Imperial High Command to mobilize their forces and to invade the Beta system with a colossal strike-force commanded by [[Grand Admiral]] [[Black Lodge]]. Prior to this planned invasion, they were contacted by Prince [[Tholin Dur'aak]], a disgruntled Fallen noble, who offered to betray Kuraine.<br />
<br />
Thus, shortly before the actual battle occurred, King Kuraine and his consort [[Kalina Ulaeri]] were slain by three masked Sith assassins &mdash; [[Adric Simms]], [[Thraken Solo]], and [[Locus]] &mdash; while aboard the ''Shadowstone'''s bridge due to clandestine assistance from Dur'aak.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> With Kuraine assassinated, the Empire moved to secure the Beta system. Attacking in two separate waves, the [[Super Star Destroyer]] ''[[Sovereign]]'', nine Imperial Star Destroyers, and a variety of escort ships exited hyperspace to match their strength against the defense forces of the Falleen Federation and, its ally, [[Supreme Commander]] [[Avatar Voidrunner]]'s [[Rebel Alliance]]. Ultimately, Lord Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] of the [[Falleen Federation|Falleen Navy]] could not stem the tide of invading Imperial vessels and undertook a strategic withdrawal from the system.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> Now in uncontested control of the battlefield, the Imperial forces emerged victorious and with minimal losses. The massive Falleen Federation-controlled space station ''[[Libra]]'' was subsequently obliterated, and the entire populations of Ul Yanin and Ulrike were allegedly exterminated by the [[Imperial Army]] commanded by Brigadier General [[Durand|Durand Somerville]].<ref name="Beta System Cleansed">[http://web.archive.org/web/20040315175758/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=164&category=20 GNS: "Beta System Cleansed" - Year 5 Day 12]</ref><br />
<br />
The Battle of Beta remains infamous to this day for its marked disregard for civilian casualties. Its aftermath, in which the Empire conducted a systematic extermination of life-forms on the planets Ul Yanin and Ulrike, resulted in disputed casualties ranging from 103 million<ref name="Empire in Error"/> to 1.5 billion sentient beings.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/> Overall, the demise of the Falleen monarch, his unforeseen betrayal by a revered Falleen noble, the Imperial conquest of the Beta system, the fiery destruction of the prized ''Libra'' battle station, and the heinous genocide of defenseless Falleen colonists made the conflict a defining moment in the early years of the galactic civil war.<br />

An uncharted system, [[Beta]] was first discovered during the search for the legendary former Grand Admiral [[Gorn Veynom]] whose disappearance into the [[Unknown Regions]] foreshadowed the [[Second Imperial Civil War]]. At that time, the Beta system was the symbolic stronghold of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]]'s Falleen Federation and contained two keys planets, [[Ul Yanin]] and [[Ulrike]], as well as the battle station known as ''[[Libra]]''. An estimated three billion Falleens dwelled on the main planet of Ul Yanin. <br />
<br />
Circa [[Year 4]], King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] of the [[Falleen Federation]] conspired with a disgruntled Imperial governor, [[Moff]] [[Vir Calder]], to steal the modified [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial Class Star Destroyer]] ''[[Shadowstone]]'' from the [[Imperial Navy]]. According to surviving records, Calder misappropriated Imperial funds in order to purchase a large contingent of battle droids. At an opportune moment, Calder defected to the Falleen Federation and brought the prized vessel with him. Shortly thereafter, a motley raiding party &mdash; which included [[Jace Meridan]], [[Airoria Celestian]], [[Keir Santage]], [[Ralgarrch]], [[Squall Chitose]] and many others &mdash; boarded the Star Destroyer and, utilizing Calder's contingent of battle droids, overpowered the loyal Imperial crew garrisoned aboard the vessel. <br />
<br />
The news of this brazen and outrageous heist under the Empire's very nose shocked the galaxy and angered the [[Imperial High Command]]. In response, the Imperial High Command assembled on [[Coruscant]] for a top-secret meeting. During the subsequent hours of debate, [[Emperor]] [[Greyson Uebles]] decided to undertake a full retaliation against both Kuraine and the Falleen people. At this time, a disturbance in the Force impelled Lord [[Vodo Bonias]], a key Imperial dignitary who had been absent for several months, to interrupt his hermetic meditations on the Dark Side and to return to Coruscant in order to oversee the forthcoming battle.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Greyson Uebles 2.jpg|thumb|left|130px|[[Greyson Uebles]]]]<br />
Realizing his meager Falleen forces were no match against the Emperor's legions, Kuraine paid the [[Rebel Alliance]] to assist in the defense of the Beta system. In response, the Alliance dispatched three [[Jedi|Jedi Masters]] &mdash; [[Avatar Voidrunner]], [[Reajiad Nero]], and [[Thies Windu]] &mdash; to the Beta system to advise and to rally the beleaguered defenders. The rebels also began preparations to send a fleet under the command of [[Phymp Mindano]]. At the same time, Kuraine informed his officers and followers that he would not lead the battle and instead he would remain aboard the ''Shadowstone''. Kuraine appointed a seasoned [[Mandalorian]] warrior, Lord Commander [[Zechs Darius]], and his subordinates to defend his stronghold against the impending attack of the Imperial war machine.<br />
<br />
While the Falleen Federation planned the defense of the Beta system, Emperor Uebles, Executor [[Jennifer Dreighton]], [[Adric Simms]] (a.k.a. Darth Knyte), and Vodo Bonias devised a plan to infiltrate Kuraine's flagship, the stolen [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] ''Shadowstone'' and assassinate him. They clandestinely persuaded a disgruntled Falleen prince [[Tholin Dur'aak]] &mdash; the former monarch of the Falleen Federation &mdash; and asked him to betray both his homeworld and his people. Believing the Federation and the Rebel Alliance had little hope of success against the Empire, Dur'aak agreed to betray his comrades on the condition that all Falleen personnel, as well as the innocent civilians of Ul Yanin and Ulrike, would be spared.<br />
<br />
==Prelude==<br />
===Initial Plans===<br />
[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Holoprojector_Planets.png|thumb|230px|right|Capturing the planets of [[Ul Yanin]] and [[Ulrike]] was the primary objective in hypothetical battle-plans discussed by Imperial strategists.]]<br />
In their preliminary battle plans, the Imperial strategists suggested marshaling their forces into a single colossal fleet with only three vessels held in reserve: The [[Victory Star Destroyer I]] ''Darkness'' commanded by [[Crog]], the [[Victory Star Destroyer I]] ''Adjudicator'' commanded by [[Ral Hoffner]], and the [[Carrack/I-class Light Cruiser]] ''Rapier'' commanded by [[Mythrantar]]. Hypothetically, the Imperial battle group was expected to hyper-jump into the system and lure the enemy Y-Wings away from their rally point. This tentative plan involved three waves: The first wave would consist of [[Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wing]] vessels colloquially known as "Cygnus Gunboats" and the second wave would be composed of [[TIE Fighter]]s. <br />
<br />
In this unrealized plan, this double-wave would provide a fighter screen for the incoming third wave of Imperial capital ships. This fighter screen was to be coordinated by Commodore [[Daelin Zerk]] with Captain [[Dimitri]] as his second-in-command. Behind this fighter screen, a picket line of Carrack cruisers would exit hyperspace in order to intercept proton torpedoes and enemy starfighters that strayed too close. After the picket line, five Victory-class Star Destroyers would follow. When one came under fire, the other ships would pivot and would physically block the incoming attack vector. Behind these five VSDs, the ISD ''Nemesis'' and the VSD ''Malevolence'' would wade into the fray. While developing these battle plans, codenames were assigned to the key targets by the Imperial strategists. The planet Ul Yanin was codenamed "Sebastopol" in Imperial transmissions, and Ulrike designated "Phyrrus."<br />
<br />
===A Traitor's Price===<br />

[[Image:Tholin Dur'aak Portrait.jpg|thumb|right|150px|[[Tholin Dur'aak]] agreed to betray King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] to the [[Galactic Empire]].]]<br />
During this planning phase, Prince Tholin Dur'aak of the [[Falleen Federation]] clandestinely approached Sith Lord Vodo Bonias and stated he would surrender the Federation into the Empire's hands. Tholin's unexpected betrayal was motivated by his well-known displeasure with King Kuraine's obstinate refusal to heed his advice and his firm conviction that Kuraine was selfishly jeopardizing the Falleen Federation in order to further his personal feuds. Tholin believed that Kuraine had placed the entire Federation in danger due to his ongoing vendetta against the Empire and that culminated in the theft of the Imperial Star Destroyer ''[[Shadowstone]]''. While Tholin did not always concur with the Empire's methods, he feared their martial strength and recognized that resistance was futile. As such, Tholin graciously offered to provide the Empire with the coordinates of Kuraine and his stolen ship, the ISD ''[[Shadowstone]]''. Although the vessel was in hyperspace, Tholin knew its intended destination. According to fragmented records, Vodo Bonias called upon his arcane powers of darkness to open a wormhole and pulled Prince Tholin out of his Y-Wing to the command room aboard the VSD ''Widowmaker''.<br />
<br />
Now an Imperial operative, Tholin not only provided the exit coordinates of King Kuraine's vessel, but he also provided sensitive data regarding the strategical deployment of Rebel Alliance's defense forces in the Beta system. He informed Bonias that three famous [[Jedi|Jedi master]]s &mdash; [[Avatar Voidrunner]], [[Reajiad Nero]], and [[Thies Windu]] &mdash; were garrisoned aboard the ''Libra'' battle station. To Vodo's delight, Tholin also revealed that [[Vir Calder]], a former Moff and an Imperial traitor, was sequestered aboard the defense station near the planet Ulrike.<br />
<br />
Acting upon Tholin's information, Bonias devised a covert plan: Utilizing the unholy powers of the Dark Side, he would manifest two wormholes to the ''Shadowstone''. Bonias, Solo, and Locus would enter through one. Admiral Adric Simms would enter the second wormhole with Brigadier General [[Durand]], Major [[Joshua Chamberlain]], and a stormtrooper contingent. While the Sith captured Kuraine and his consort, Simms and [[Imperial Army]] personnel would storm the ship. While discussing this plan, Bonias was adamant that he personally slay Kuraine due to the personal feud existing between Kuraine and himself. In Vodo's mind, Kuraine felt abandoned after Vodo turned his back to him because of his business dealings with [[Felix]]. Once Kuraine was slain, Tholin would signal [[Jace Meridan]], commander of the Falleen Federation's military forces, to sign a treaty with the Empire. <br />
[[Image:Battle of Beta Inset Many Informers.png|thumb|260px|left|During the planning phase, the [[Galactic Empire]] benefited from numerous informants providing intelligence about the [[Falleen]] defenses.]]<br />
As payment for his treachery, Jace Meridan asked that he be bequeathed all of Kuraine's property except for his credits. Kuraine's credits would be confiscated and invested into [[Cloud City]] &mdash; the Imperial mining company &mdash; and [[Blue Sabre Transportation]]. The Federation would arrest Vir Calder at the station and withdraw their forces from the Beta system. They would lower the defenses of the ''Libra'' station and allow Imperial forces to storm the bastion. The Empire would dispatch a force of 10,000 shock troops to Ul Yanin and lay waste to everything in sight including Lady General [[Mia DeMornay]]'s [[Loronar Security]] which was headquartered on the planet's surface.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20030823063123/http://www.swcombine.com/cmg/cmginfo.php?category_id=1&cmg=Loronar+Security Loronar Security - Description] (Archived)</ref> <br />
<br />
Vodo insisted that two Lancer Frigates should be transported via Blue Sabre Transportation to the edge of the Beta system to provide the Empire with support against the incoming Rebel Alliance forces. He anticipated the Alliance would be shocked by the betrayal of the Falleen troops and the rebels would find themselves alone, surprised, and outnumbered. The Imperial Navy would then swarm [[Phymp Mindano]]'s rebel fleet while the Army would conduct mop-up operations on the two worlds. In the long run, most of Bonias' plan did not come to fruition as unfolding events considerably altered both the timeline and plans for the battle.<br />
<br />
===A Dark Conspiracy===<br />
[[Image:Battle of Beta Inset Sith.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The [[Sith]] cabal and the traitor [[Tholin Dur'aak]] discuss the imminent murder of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] and his consort.]]<br />

Once Tholin had been wormholed aboard the Star Destroyer ''Widowmaker'', the assembled Imperial Command Staff began outlining the proposed operation to assassinate Falleen monarch. The mission itself was dubbed "Operation Witching Hour." It was agreed that, upon the ghastly death of Kuraine at the hands of Sith, Tholin and Jace Meridan would order the Falleen forces to stand down and then negotiate a cease-fire with the Galactic Empire. All Falleen troops would be ordered to cease attacking Imperial vessels. Additionally the planetary defenses of Ul Yanin &mdash; in particular the shield projectors for ''Libra'' station &mdash; would be powered down. The Falleen forces garrisoned aboard the ''Libra'' and the other nearby stations would be ordered to attack all non-compliant persons including the three Jedi masters from the Rebel Alliance. Above all, Vodo demanded the grisly death of Vir Calder, a former Moff of the Fakir Sector and an Imperial traitor, who was hiding aboard one of the other defense stations.<br />
<br />
Faced with the death of Kuraine and commanded by a Sith puppet, the Imperial conspirators expected the Falleen forces would be easily swayed into attacking their incoming rebel allies and would not intervene with Empire's forces cleansing the system. Upon completion of the planned battle, ''Libra'' would be obliterated and all holdings in the system made over to the Empire to administer with a military governor until a new treaty between the Galactic Empire and the new Falleen government was signed. The Falleen Federation would become an obedient satellite of the Empire and they would receive a paltry sector to rule in the Empire's name with limited autonomy.<br />

[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Bonias_Wormhole.png|thumb|275px|right|Using the unholy powers of the [[The Force|Dark Side]], [[Vodo Bonias]] created a [[The Force|force wormhole]] through which he portaled [[Order of the Sith|Sith assassins]] onto the ISD ''[[Shadowstone]]''.]]<br />
At the appointed hour, Tholin Dur'aak attempted to establish a communication link to the ISD ''Shadowstone''. As none were aware of his betrayal, he successfully opened up a holovid connection to Kuraine who had a holoprojector with him. With their target's position now pin-pointed, Vodo Bonias used the Dark Side of the Force to open a wormhole to the ''Shadowstone'' through which Adric Simms (a.k.a. "Darth Tenebrius"), Thraken Solo (a.k.a. "Darth Xeres"), and Locus (a.k.a. "Darth Sedulus") entered. Before stepping into the wormhole, Simms quickly turned around to face Prince Tholin and smiled. In a chilling voice, Simms remarked: "If all goes according to plan, there will be a new king crowned this day."<br />
<br />
Portaling through space and time, the three masked Sith materialized on the bridge of the ISD ''Shadowstone''. The sudden appearance of the Sith assassins momentarily shocked King Kuraine, his consort Kalina Ulaeri, and the bridge crew of thirty personnel. The twenty War Droids stationed on the bridge sprang to life as their scanners detected the new intruders, but Solo instantly powered them down by transmitting codes provided by Tholin Dur'aak. Exploiting the element of surprise, Simms used the Force and hurled Kuraine against a wall leaving him stunned. He likewise threw Kalina and her two bodyguards backwards. Igniting his lightsaber, Simms rushed the stunned Falleen king and cut him in half. He then re-opened a wormhole to the SSD ''Sovereign'' using the Holonet connection as his link. While Simms beheaded the Falleen king, Solo approached Kalina who was crawling on the floor and cowering in fear. As she cried out Kuraine's name, Solo executed her with his saber. The third Sith warrior, Locus, attacked the two nearest guards that drew their weapons and killed them. All but three Falleen guards stood and watched as Kuraine and Kalina died. With their bloody handiwork completed in under one minute, the Sith disappeared again into wormhole to the SSD ''Sovereign'' and sent a triumphant message to initiate phase two of the invasion. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile on Beta, a nervous Prince Tholin awaited news of his sovereign's assassination. He had risked his life, fortune, and reputation on the plot, and he was understandably anxious to know the outcome. Upon receiving confirmation of Kuraine's demise, Tholin secretly rejoiced. Regaining his composure, he assumed a more somber expression and hailed the Falleen Federation on an open channel: "The king is dead." Tholin then notified his men regarding the change of leadership.<br />
<br />

[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Brief_Skirmish.png|thumb|260px|right|Following Kuraine's murder, a brief skirmish occurred between the rival fleets before Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] ordered a Falleen withdrawal.]]<br />
Due to intelligence provided by Tholin Dur'aak and Jace Meridan on the Falleen defenses, the initial Imperial plan of a three-wave attack had been scrapped and a two-wave strategy had been devised instead. Thus the first wave of Imperial forces entered the Beta system consisting of ten Star Destroyers and their escorts. The invaders monitored all sub-space transmissions in order to pinpoint the enemy reinforcements and to confirm Tholin's information about the deployment of Falleen defense forces. In a sub-space transmission, the system was declared quarantined by the Empire and they announced that [[The Wraiths]], a Hapes-affiliated mercenary unit garrisoned at Beta, may leave the system unharmed as a token of Imperial goodwill towards the [[Hapes Consortium|Hapan government]]. The Wraiths consented, but delayed leaving the system in order to evacuate more civilians. Faced with the Wraith's intransigence, the Imperial units were given permission to attack them on sight. <br />
<br />
Upon receiving word from Tholin Dur'aak that three Sith assassins &mdash; Adric Simms, [[Thraken Solo]] and Locus &mdash; had slain the beloved sovereign Kuraine aboard the command deck of the ISD ''Shadowstone'', the Falleen Federation reeled in shock. Amid the confusion, Fleet Admiral [[Bisz Aldaris]] was duly chosen to succeed Kuraine as monarch of the Falleen Federation. The ensuing rumors about Kuraine's demise and Tholin's treachery created a crippling division in the Falleen ranks. At this critical moment, the Rebel Alliance fleet commanded by [[Phymp Mindano]] exited hyperspace and joined the Falleen Federation's forces in the Beta system. All eyes now turned to the invading Imperial fleet.<br />
<br />
In this tense moment, the Empire presented their stunned adversaries with an ultimatum: The Federation could comply with the terms of a negotiated surrender and spare the lives of billions of their citizens, or they could all be crushed beneath the iron-fist of Grand Admiral Black Lodge. Desperate to win a lopsided battle, Aldaris allegedly proposed the Falleen forces should feign surrender in order to launch a surprise attack. However, this plan was reported by Imperial spies and, consequently, Grand Admiral Black Lodge began the annihilation of the Falleen and Rebel fleets in the Beta system.<ref name="Empire in Error"/><br />
<br />
[[Image:The Wraiths Emblem.png|150px|thumb|left|[[The Wraiths]] tried to evacuate the Beta system.]]<br />
By this time, the second wave of the Imperial fleet, consisting of several Star Destroyers and escort ships coalesced around the SSD ''Sovereign'', had entered the system upon the confirmed death of Kuraine. These forces were instructed to be wary of the enemy launching boarding teams to try and seize Imperial ships. All pilots and commanders were ordered to immediately target any ship that might carry such assault troops. <br />
<br />
The two Imperial fleets united. The fleet formed up around the SSD ''Sovereign'' and the ISD both are assigned a Lancer frigate as close area screening. The Victory star destroyers formed a semi-sphere in front of the SSD to shield it in the approach phase until the capital ships are in weapons range. Expecting long range torpedo fire to be inbound, they moved to shield the two heaviest units as they were likely to receive the most fire. An accomplished tactician, Grand Admiral Lodge concentrated on this formation pattern to ensure maximum efficiency. <br />
<br />
They met little resistance as the main defense forces clustered around the planet Ul Yanin and the space station ''Libra'' in its orbit. They proceeded to tackle an enemy strike force that initially gathered to obstruct the deployment in system. A light skirmish ensued. Before reaching turbolaser range, the SSD and the VSDs prepared to fire a full torpedo volley at the rebel capital ships, followed by concentrated turbolaser and ion fire as soon as they closed in, starting with the heaviest enemy in descending order.<br />
<br />
However, shortly after the light skirmish began, Aldaris ordered a strategic withdrawal.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> The bulk of the naval defense force fled without exchanging shots with the Imperial fleet. While the rest of the Falleen and Rebel forces retreated into hyperspace, a single Dreadnaught captained by the courageous Lord Commander [[Zechs Darius]] chose to remain behind. Broadcasting on Imperial communication frequencies, Darius sent a defiant sub-space transmission that publicly challenged Emperor Uebles to a duel aboard the Dreadnaught.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> He taunted Uebles and urged him to face him in in a heroic battle to the death, an offer which the Emperor purportedly spurned.<ref name="Empire in Error"/> With his challenged declined and Star Destroyers closing in, Darius was forced to retreat into hyperspace.<br />

Understanding the battle was lost, the three Jedi aboard the ''Libra'' battle station likewise retreated from the system.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/> Their escape was just in time as a daring landing maneuver by an Imperial Army Special Ops team consisting of six commandos &mdash; [[Simms]], Thraken, Locus, Durand, [[Tyr DeMeer]] and [[Raider Aspect]] &mdash; soon disabled both the defense grid of Ul Yanin and the shield projectors for the ''Libra'' battle station.<br />
<br />
With the shield projectors now disabled, Grand Admiral Black Lodge calmly instructed the Imperial fleet to destroy ''Libra'' station, the pride of the Falleen Federation. Although one of the largest and most technologically advanced space stations in the galaxy, Lodge knew the ''Libra'' station couldn't survive a fusillade by a dozen Star Destroyers. The continuous discharge of red and green turbolaser fire from the Imperial fleet illuminated the darkness of space in alternating hues. Thousands of Falleen survivors aboard the station tried to surrender at this point, but their pleas were ignored. Any escape pods were summarily destroyed by Zero-G stormtroopers. At last, the ''Libra'' station burst into a supernova, creating a spectacular heavenly display.<br />
<br />
The Imperial fleet sublighted through the floating cloud of radioactive dust and charred debris that once was the galaxy's largest space station and approached the twin planets of Ul Yanin and Ulrike. Grand Admiral Black Lodge were determined to teach the Falleen people a lesson that they would never forget.<br />

==Aftermath==<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = No trace of civilization on these two planets will remain. By today 20.00 Imperial Standard time, Executor Lodge received orders to perform a full Base Delta Zero maneuver over both planets. This means the total destruction of the planetary surface from orbit. The planets will be left barren and uninhabitable for all time... <br />
|person = [[Greyson Uebles|Emperor Greyson Uebles of the Galactic Empire]], [http://web.archive.org/web/20050121213301/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=164&category=20 ''"Beta System Cleansed"'' - Year 5 Day 12]}}<br />
[[Image:Black Lodge Avatar Year 13.jpg|150px|thumb|The Imperial forces of [[Black Lodge]] decimated the civilian population of [[Ul Yanin]].]]<br />
As the Falleen government did not acquiesce to Uebles' provisos for capitulation, he dispassionately ordered the decimation of a conjectured 1.5 billion Falleen and foreign nationals on both planetary surfaces. Savoring his freshly-won victory, Uebles coldly insisted that "no trace of civilization" should remain in the Beta system. Thus, by 20.00 Imperial Standard Time, Black Lodge received orders to perform a Base Delta Zero maneuver over both worlds.<br />
<br />
The SSD ''Sovereign'' unleashed the first salvo at Ul Yanin's capital. Hundreds of turbolaser batteries and missile launchers spit fiery death below in a merciless barrage. Terrorized inhabitants watched in abject horror as the first blasts struck and tremendous explosions engulfed their cities. TIE Bombers menaced the atmosphere and dropped high-density payloads onto every visible target. Overseen by the white-haired Grand Admiral Black Lodge, the Star Destroyers in orbit pummeled the defenseless planets for twelve standard hours with rapid turbolaser fire and relentless missile attacks. As a consequence, large regions were rendered uninhabitable and acrid smoke billowed from both hemispheres. Every major city was thoroughly gutted with tactical precision.<br />
<br />
With the orbital bombardment completed, the mustachioed General Durand Somerville of the [[Imperial Army]] deployed his ground forces on Ul Yanin and Ulrike. He dispatched an Imperial legion of approximately fifty thousand troops, hundreds of Imperial AT-AT Walkers, and other assault vehicles. His shock-troops scoured the broken hovels, dragged the ash-covered survivors from the rubble, and then executed them in wrecked streets made slippery with blood. The sounds of blaster fire and the screams of victims filled the air.<br />
<br />
As news of the wanton butchery spread across the HoloNet, Imperial propagandists claimed such carnage could have been avoided if the Falleen Federation had gracefully ceded the system. Meanwhile, Aldaris had regrouped the Falleen fleet at a distant rendezvous point and held a funeral ceremony to eulogize their fallen sovereign. He proclaimed that, "Although King Kuraine perished, his example of standing up to the Empire will live on forever through the stories of how the Federation captured the pride of the Empire, the Star Destroyer ''Shadowstone''. Though he gave his life for that earlier victory, the King never wavered from the Falleen belief in liberty, equality and justice, in other words, opposition to the Empire and the tyranny it stands for."<ref name="Empire in Error"/> According to Imperial propaganda, Kuraine's severed head was later presented as a gift to Emperor Uebles by his Sith acolytes and served as a public warning to those who might commit future crimes against the Empire.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Battle_of_Beta_Inset_Planet_Graveyard.png|thumb|260px|right|The planet of Ul Yanin became a barren rock after the Imperial fleet bombarded its cities.]]<br />
The Beta system became an eerie morgue, haunted by the collective memory of the battle and its genocidal aftermath. The alleged cowardice of the three Jedi masters who retreated from the Beta system embarrassed the Jedi Order. Aldaris later hailed the three Jedi masters as heroes who "remained as long as possible"<ref name="Empire in Error"/> while the Empire accused the trio of unpardonable cowardice.<ref name="Beta System Cleansed"/><br />
<br />
Although the Falleen Federation claimed to have broken through the Imperial blockade and evacuated millions from the Beta system with the paid assistance of [[The Wraiths]], many historians believe the bulk of the civilian population was left behind. As a result, the Empire exterminated an estimated 1.5 billion Falleen on both worlds.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20040315180015/http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=182&category=20 GNS: "Press Release by the Infinite Innovations Corporation" - Year 5 Day 21]</ref> However, Falleen officials contracted these figures and insisted that only 103 million civilians perished.<ref name="Empire in Error"/><br />
<br />
Falleen and allied casualties are estimated at 1.5 billion while Imperial casualties were less then five hundred. The Falleen Federation's monarch and his consort Kalina, plus two other high ranking personnel, were dead, two planets destroyed, taking with them at least a third of the total Falleen population and infrastructure. ''Libra'' station and two other Falleen Federation space stations have been destroyed along with about a dozen enemy ships, while the Empire didn't lose a single fighter.<br />
<br />
Prince Tholin was later pardoned by Aldaris and appointed Minister of Culture in the Falleen Federation.<br />

'''Eidola''', also more formally known as the '''Eidola Pirates''', is a a gang of pirates that control several galactic sectors. Originally founded by the notable trader [[Keir Santage]], the pirate gang evolved from a small nucleus of thieves inside circa [[Year 4]] into a powerful government.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Eidola began as a small tight-knit group of thieves under the leadership of [[Keir Santage]]. Early members included [[Bruce Spear]], [[Derek Shado|Derek Solo]], and [[Lloyd Font]]. The group of freelancers eventually moved into [[Outrider Trading]] after Keir was given its leadership, and the company was transformed into a den of thieves who became widely regarded as the best in the galaxy's criminal underworld. Keir later sold Outrider Trading, and purchased [[Biotech Medical]] instead, and the group moved to the new company, picking up new recruits like [[Utono Brutza]] along the way. Later they sold Biotech, and created a new collective from scratch: '''Eidola'''. Then stuff happened. After completely ignoring the brief period of the [[Malebranche]] failure...<br />
<br />
==Alleged Murders==<br />
*[[Kara Tamerin]], thief ([[Taikong suoyou de xingqiu saijin wo de pigu!]])<br />
*[[Krythan Rogers]] ([[Eidola writes a short biography about the man they just killed. - Year 7 Day 224]])<br />
*[[Victor von Ismay]], Imperial Moff (Eidola's role in the killing is still uncertain)<br />

'''''Shadowstone''''' is an [[Imperial Star Destroyer]] once famously captured by [[Keir Santage]], [[Finn Setanta]] and [[Squall Chitose]] who were working in the employment of King [[Eldrik Kuraine]] of the [[Falleen Federation]]. A lengthy battle was fought to seize the ship chiefly through the attackers bringing aboard large amounts of [[Battle Droid]]s under their command, and fighting the Imperial stormtroopers aboard the ship.<br />
<br />
Notable incidents in this battle included the wookiee [[Ralgarrch]] squeezing into a turbo-lift maintenance shaft to chase the more nimble [[Siather]] during her attempts at escape, [[Keir Santage]] accidentally tossing an extra grenade into a fray resulting in damage to his own battle droids, the death of [[Doug|Doug the Battledroid]], and the baking of cookies in the mess hall after the battle was concluded by [[Adam A Flynn]]. [[Keir Santage]] also managed to rescue an injured female Imperial officer from a bacta tank, however it is unclear what happened to her after she escaped with him. Towards the end of the battle, the betrayal of Xarius Tylger was revealed. Xarius's droids were equipped with slave commands by Kuraine, and he took direct control to of them to attack Xarius. Tylger was wounded, but was able to initiate the command codes to the bombs he had smuggled aboard to destroy the ship. [[Squall Chitose]] was nearby and saved the ship by disarming the bombs and shooting Tylger in the face.<br />
<br />
Santage presented the ship to King Kuraine, who then turned and gifted the vessel to Hapan officer [[Alex Tylger]. It is rumored the Roan Axios was gifted the ship by King Alex. As a result of the capture of the ''Shadowstone'', the [[Galactic Empire]] attacked the Fallen Federation's stronghold at [[Battle of Beta|Beta]].<br />

Daniel Reyalmid was a stormtrooper who defected from the Empire to the Eidola Pirates sometime in year 8. Daniel was known for his love of rum and prostitutes, and is said to have father over 20 bastard children. After several years as a successful pirate, Reyalmid was chosen as one of [[Squall Chitose's]] personal guards. In an ambush on Pybus III, Daniel Reyalmid was killed in action defending his squadmates. Chitose was so moved by his heroism that he awarded the stormtrooper the [[Golden Eyepatch]], Eidola's highest honor. This has afforded him a statue in Eidola's Garden of Heroes on Sevarcos.<br />

The Heretic is a modified YT-1300, currently owned by Warlord [[Squall Chitose]]. It was previously owned by [[Teniel Djo]], and sat rotting in Eidola's sizable coffers. Upon his ascension to second in command of Eidola, Djo gifted the ship to Chitose, saying "You need something to whore around in." Since Chitose has taken to using Djo's old YT, it is uncertain what the fate of the Heretic has been. <br />

Gráinne Ní Mháille is a capital ship owned by the infamous Warlord [[Squall Chitose]]. Very little information is avaible on ''GnM'', other then whispers and over exaggerated stories. What '''''IS''''' known about ''GnM'' is that it is a highly advanced YV-666. The "GnM" gained considerable infamy for being used on some of Teniel Djo's most infamous raids. It started as a stock YV-666 Freighter, but was modified into it's advanced state by the Pirate Queen herself.<br />
<br />
Gráinne Ní Mháille is also notable for having survived Djo's black hole suicide. All hands were lost, but the ship was salvaged by Eidolan Forces under the direction of the new Pirate King, Squall Chitose. He named the ship "Tempered Grace" in order to hide it's existence from the general public.<br />
<br />
It is quite possible that GnM is the fastest capital-class ship in the galaxy, surpassed in speed only by Syn's [[Solitaire]]. <br />

Operation Saint George was an operation planed and executed by the Eidola Pirates, in conjunction with Mando'ade, against Joni Yuma's Dragon Armored Transportation Service (DATS). While Eidola operative [[Squall Chitose]] infiltrated DATS and worked his way up to second-in-command, a plan was conceived with Eidola and Mando'ade to kill Joni Yuma. Chitose was able to lure Yuma to Kintan, where [[Kai Oryk]] was able to capture her. Yuma was subsequently killed by Chitose and Oryk live on the GNS on Year 10 Day 179.<ref name="GNS18914">[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/gnsarchive.php?display=2&postID=18914&category=20 GNS Broadcast #18914 - You'll not be anybody's doxy, harlot]</ref> <br />
<br />
==Aftermath & Legacy==<br />
<br />
With Yuma's death, Chitose legally gained control of DATS. He stripped the corporation of all valuable assets, and sold the shell to [[Vee Null]] for a bargain price. As part of their deal, Oryk was able to reclaim Mando'ade's ancestral home, [[Argovia]] since it had previously been occupied by DATS security forces. Chitose was able to hunt down and kill the remaining leadership of DATS, Markus Oblivion and Arach Legend.<br />

<br />
Warlord '''Squall Chitose''' is the leader of the [[Eidola Pirates]]. He is a well known soldier, tactician, diplomat, and anarchist.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
Squall Chitose grew up on the arid world of [[Tatooine]]. His parents were wealthy, being part of the self proclaimed nobles of Tatooine. When the [[Galactic Empire |Empire]] took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, The Empire decided that violence was the answer, and killed all of the Nobles.<br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He then ran like a scalded kowakian, and smuggled himself off planet. Afterwards, he came in contact with the Alliance to Restore the Republic. <br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an inavailability of slots made him eligible for the Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a [[Rank|lieutenant]] in the Cougar company under High General [[Shae Briston]]. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to [[Rank|Captain]]. Then, shortly afterwards, he was skipped to the rank of [[Rank|Major General]].<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by [[Davvyk Lysander]] and [[David Salohah]], the new SC.<br />
<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named [[Adam Zad]]. Squall learned alot from Zad, but eventually left for the [[Imperial Army]].<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, under Colonel [[Maureen York]]. He quickly rose to the rank of [[Rank|Sergeant]], and was a contemporary of [[Mark DeMeer]]. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was evil and stagnant. And after all, they did kill his parents.<br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by Eldrik Kuraine, where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, Finn Setanta. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the Shadowstone. <br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of Nar Shadda, Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor.<br />
<br />
Squall tried many things after the death of Kuraine. For awhile, he allied with the Draxes and worked with them. After the theft of much of their inventory, Squall eventually came to lead the Malebranche Pirates. However, due to his struggling relationship with his wife and children, he decided to take a leave of absence. During his LOA, Malebranche was stripped by elements of [[Eidola]]. Squall left, and went back to the Rebel Alliance. Within a short time, Squall rose to second in command of the Alliance Army.<br />
<br />
Squall grew disgusted with the political machine the Alliance had become, in particular Frollo. He soon left, and started to run his own organization, PHILANTHROPY. However, Squall was offered a position as head of the Kathol Republic's military. He accepted, and set out to structure their military. He succeeded, but again, politics got in the way. Samuel Vimes - Kathol's leader - fell ill and Squall filled in for him for a short time. In this time, Squall tapped into his unknown diplomatic skills to avert disaster at the hands of Eidola and Tenloss.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
Squall began to rise in prominence once again by murdering Kara Tamerin. Upon her execution, Squall was able to steal her personal YT-510, called ''The Memory'' or ''Rick''. Squall later renamed the ship ''Red Hare''.<br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group. Eventually, he grew tired of Joni hobbnobbing with IU higher-ups, and her vile-flattery. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while Teniel Djo was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Deaths attributed to Chitose==<br />
Kara Tamerin, Aeia Tavell, Rae'lin Or'lean, Joni Yuma, Arach Legend, Markus Oblivion, Ender Daklan<br />
<br />
==Known Battles and Campaigns==<br />
-Operation: Big Score (Commander, captured Imperial Star Galleon)<br><br />

==Quote==<br />
"Such is the way of Eidola - brains will always beat out brawn...unless Squall is your brawn, then there's a good chance he'll just smash your brains in with the butt of his rifle." -Teniel Djo<br />

When the [[Galactic Empire |Empire]] took interest in the small, desert world, Squall's parents were called on to be part of the negotiations. However, The Empire decided that violence was the answer, and killed all of the Nobles.<br />
<br />
Squall was fourteen years old.<br />
<br />
When Imperials came to seize his parent's estate, Squall used his father's blaster to kill the Officer in charge. He then ran like a scalded kowakian, and smuggled himself off planet. Afterwards, he came in contact with the Alliance to Restore the Republic. <br />
<br />
==Rebels & Empire==<br />
Squall originally applied for Alliance Star Fighter Command, but an inavailability of slots made him eligible for the Alliance Marines. Upon completion of Officer Basic, Squall became a [[Rank|lieutenant]] in the Cougar company under High General [[Shae Briston]]. After distinguishing himself in battle, Squall was promoted to [[Rank|Captain]]. Then, shortly afterwards, he was skipped to the rank of [[Rank|Major General]].<br />
<br />
When Shae Briston became the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, Squall took his place as the High General. He became the youngest member in High Command, at the tender age of sixteen. However, political tensions caused Shae to step down as the SC. Squall, being a vocal supporter of Shae's, was almost instantly discredited by [[Davvyk Lysander]] and [[David Salohah]], the new SC.<br />
<br />
Enraged, Squall left the Alliance, and started his life as a mercenary. He was taken under the wing of an older man, named [[Adam Zad]]. Squall learned alot from Zad, but eventually left for the [[Imperial Army]].<br />
<br />
In the Empire, Squall was a member of the infamous Dark Blade Legion, under Colonel [[Maureen York]]. He quickly rose to the rank of [[Rank|Sergeant]], and was a contemporary of [[Mark DeMeer]]. He soon left though, realizing that the Empire was evil and stagnant. And after all, they did kill his parents.<br />
<br />
==Kuraine Inc.==<br />
Squall joined [[Astralwerks Engineering]], led by Eldrik Kuraine, where he met his wife-to-be, Asarya Katr, and his new best friend, Finn Setanta. He spent many happy years with Kuraine Inc., moving from Astralwerks to Nebular to [[Loronar Security]] to the [[Falleen Federation]]. Over this period of time, he masterminded many brilliant military operations, such as the theft of the Star Galleon, Operation Big Score, and the theft of the Shadowstone. <br />
<br />
==Post Shadowstone==<br />
After the raid on the Shadowstone, Squall went on a short expedition with Finn Setanta and Keir Santage. Outside of Nar Shadda, Squall and company were attacked by [[Black Sun]] forces, under the leadership of Banquo Knox. Keir's forces were completely surprised, and Squall and Finn tried to run interference to allow Keir's Carrack to escape. Squall managed to take out a viper, but sustained heavy damage. Keir escaped, but was stuck in Hyperspace. He is presumed dead. Finn's Y-wing was destroyed shortly before Squall escaped the system. Squall was, indeed, considered to be the only survivor.<br />
<br />
Squall tried many things after the death of Kuraine. For awhile, he allied with the Draxes and worked with them. After the theft of much of their inventory, Squall eventually came to lead the Malebranche Pirates. However, due to his struggling relationship with his wife and children, he decided to take a leave of absence. During his LOA, Malebranche was stripped by elements of [[Eidola]]. Squall left, and went back to the Rebel Alliance. Within a short time, Squall rose to second in command of the Alliance Army.<br />
<br />
Squall grew disgusted with the political machine the Alliance had become, in particular Frollo. He soon left, and started to run his own organization, PHILANTHROPY. However, Squall was offered a position as head of the Kathol Republic's military. He accepted, and set out to structure their military. He succeeded, but again, politics got in the way. Samuel Vimes - Kathol's leader - fell ill and Squall filled in for him for a short time. In this time, Squall tapped into his unknown diplomatic skills to avert disaster at the hands of Eidola and Tenloss.<br />
<br />
Vimes soon got well and came back, but Squall was unhappy with the state politics. Soon, he began quarreling with Auron Kun, who eventually staged a takeover of Kathol. Squall promptly left, on bad terms, and joined his old friends in [[Eidola]].<br />
<br />
Squall began to rise in prominence once again by murdering Kara Tamerin. Upon her execution, Squall was able to steal her personal YT-510, called ''The Memory'' or ''Rick''. Squall later renamed the ship ''Red Hare''.<br />
<br />
Squall laid low for awhile, doing regular missions for Eidola. Early into year 10, he was approached by Joni Yuma to join a new company she was creating. Squall accepted a position as 2IC of the group. Eventually, he grew tired of Joni hobbnobbing with IU higher-ups, and her vile-flattery. He lured her down to the planet Kirdo, where he and some Mando'ade friends captured her. Upon her death he took control of the company and its assets. He liquidated everything, and sold the company shell.<br />
<br />
The death of Yuma increased Squall's already considerable infamy when he killed her live on the GNS.<br />
<br />
Warlord Chitose spent the next couple of years managing Eidola's day to day operations. He occasionally took leadership of Eidola while Teniel Djo was off running cons. That was until Year 12 Day 207, when Teniel Djo and several veteran pirates committed a mass suicide. Leadership of Eidola passed to Chitose, who was quickly proclaimed 'The Pirate King'. <br />
