Bork is the son of a prominent Morgukai warrior, and was taken from his home-world of Kintan at a young age to be forced into slavery by a nearby Hutt Crime Lord. After being taken by the Lord, word came in that his family and rest of his village had been slaughtered because of a rebellion that started in wake of his kidnapping. He became the slave guard of a Hutt Lord on Tatooine, who soon noticed his exceptional fighting skills and trained him further as an assassin. Bork soon became infamous and well known for being a death enforcer of the Hutt crime lords. However, he could never forget how his family was slaughtered by the cartel. Soon afterwards, he rejected his status as a slave and began to seek revenge on his former masters. Fueled with hatred towards his masters, Bork rebelled against them and in a rampage killed the Hutt Lord who claimed to be his master.

Bork, a notable Morgukai warrior, endured a traumatic childhood when he was forcefully separated from his home planet of Kintan and enslaved by a nearby Hutt Crime Lord. Devastating news reached him that his family and village had been massacred due to a rebellion sparked by his abduction. As a slave guard for a Hutt Lord on Tatooine, Bork's exceptional combat abilities caught the attention of his master, who further trained him as an assassin. Infamous for his lethal enforcement on behalf of the Hutt crime lords, Bork remained haunted by the memory of his family's demise at the hands of the cartel.

After the assassination of the Crime Lord, a bounty was placed on Bork's head as consequence of his actions against the Hutt. Bork had to escape and leave the planet using the local Starport, and it was not an easy escape considering bounty hunters and assassins were guarding the entrance of the Starport. To avoid them, Bork had to disguise using a robe he took from a bounty hunter he defeated some days after rebelling against the Hutts. Bork traveled to Malastare where he met with local merchants and managed to acquire basic equipment. Armed only with his modified BD-1 Cutter, he trained to improve his fighting skills, facing enormous creatures and bandit squads all by himself. After selling some creature trophies and rare equipment looted from defeated bandits, he left Malastare and embarked on a quest of power, his only wish to become stronger.

Following the assassination, a bounty was placed on Bork's head as retribution for his actions against the Hutts. Faced with the imminent danger of bounty hunters and assassins guarding the entrance of the local Starport, Bork managed to escape Tatooine by disguising himself with a robe obtained from a defeated bounty hunter. Seeking refuge on Malastare, he engaged with local merchants to acquire essential equipment. With only his modified BD-1 Cutter as a weapon, Bork honed his combat skills by confronting formidable creatures and bandit squads on his own. Through the sale of creature trophies and rare equipment obtained from defeated adversaries, he gathered resources before departing from Malastare, setting out on a relentless pursuit of power with the sole desire to become stronger.

The mysterious sphere he found in Kinyen had a strong connection to the Force, Bork was committed to finding more about the mysterious energy inside it. After meditating and using the Force to manipulate the sphere, he was able to extract some of its energy. This energy granted him with visions of the past and of future events.

Bork quickly became even more attuned with the Force and used the energy of the Living Sphere to boost his skills. Bork and his crew visited Kinyen and the ship wreckage again to find out more about the sphere. After analyzing the records and data files of the main computer, Bork's crew found out that the mysterious object was called “The Living Sphere” and it was an object created by an ancient cult known as the Frangawl Clan. The sphere was an artifact that stored the living essence of many sentient that were sacrificed by the ancient cult. The souls inside are responsible for the visions that Bork was having.  
+
Driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, Bork and his crew returned to Kinyen and revisited the site of the ship wreckage. Through careful analysis of the records and data files recovered from the main computer, they uncovered the true identity of the mysterious object — it was called "The Living Sphere," an artifact created by the ancient Frangawl Clan, a long-forgotten cult. The sphere served as a vessel that contained the life essence of numerous sacrificed sentient beings, each soul responsible for the visions that haunted Bork.
 +
 
 +
During their stay in the capital city of Kinyen, Bork stumbled upon the lifeless body of a murdered Trandoshan near a local cantina. Intriguingly, as Bork brought the Living Sphere closer to the corpse, it began to emit a radiant glow. Suddenly, the dead Trandoshan was reanimated, but his essence had been greatly altered. He had become an undead slave devoid of his former self, blindly obedient to any command. This encounter solidified Bork's understanding that the Living Sphere indeed served as a receptacle for the life essences of unfortunate victims of the Frangawl Clan.

When visiting the capital city on Kinyen, he came across a corpse of a Trandoshan who had been murdered at the local cantina and left in a ditch nearby. He noticed that the sphere started glowing again, and decided to get the sphere closer to the corpse. The dead Trandoshan suddenly came back to life but little was left of his former self. He was a lost soul, undead, a slave that would follow orders without hesitation. Bork was then convinced that the Living Sphere was indeed a recipient of the living essence of many unfortunate victims of the Frangawl Clan. Bork understood that the energy within the sphere was limited and that it decreased on every use. He knew that eventually he would have to feed it again, he would have to steal the living essence of other beings in order to charge it.
+
Recognizing the finite nature of the energy within the sphere, Bork understood that its power diminished with each use. He came to the realization that to recharge the Living Sphere, he would need to harvest the life essence of other beings, effectively stealing their life force. This realization placed Bork at a moral crossroads, knowing that he would eventually have to make difficult choices to sustain the energy within the sphere.

[[Image:Shadow_scroll.png|thumb|150px|left|Shadow Scroll]]
Bork eventually realized that his visions had little to do with the The Living Sphere; he knew that there was something else behind.
+
As time went on, Bork came to a realization that his visions were not solely connected to the Living Sphere. He understood that there was a deeper meaning behind them. Recognizing that the answers he sought lay within his own past, Bork delved into his lineage as the son of Mob'dait'vork Zinn, a renowned Morgukai Warrior and hero of Kintan.
Bork knew that he would find the answers he needed in his own past, after all, he was the son of [[Mob'dait'vork Zinn]] a Morgukai Warrior and hero of Kintan, it was not long before Bork would establish contact with a prominent Morgukai warrior who guided him and provided crucial information about the Morgukai ways. Bork then went on a quest to find out more about this mysterious cult and like his father; become a great Morgukai warrior.
+
 
 +
Driven by a desire to follow in his father's footsteps and become a great Morgukai warrior, Bork sought the guidance of a prominent Morgukai warrior. This wise mentor provided crucial insights and information about the ways of the Morgukai. Intrigued by the teachings and traditions of this mysterious cult, Bork embarked on a quest to learn more and embrace his Morgukai heritage.
 +
 
 +
In the year 20, faced with the Eidola pirates' control over Kintan and the denial of access to his home world, Bork decided to take a risk and travel to Kintan through the local Starport. Returning to the town where his family had once lived, Bork encountered an elderly man who quickly recognized him as the long-lost son of Mob'dait'vork Zinn, noting their striking physical resemblance. This man entrusted Bork with a set of ancient scrolls known as the Shadow Scrolls, containing valuable information about the ways of the Morgukai.
 +
 
 +
Studying these scrolls and immersing himself in the teachings they contained, Bork adopted the Morgukai ways. It was during this time that he came to understand that his visions were a result of M'dweshuu, an ancient deity worshiped by the Nikto. Embracing the will of M'dweshuu, Bork resolved to bring glory to the Morgukai. With the assistance of local resistance members, he managed to establish contact with a group of refugees and, with the aid of a skilled smuggler, orchestrated the rescue of 600 Niktos from Kintan, defying the Eidolan blockade.
 +
 
 +
Bork began training the rescued refugees to become Morgukai warriors, and in due course, he encountered his apprentice. Together, they would go on to establish the Morgukai Conclave, a Kajain'sa sect dedicated to the worship of M'dweshuu and the restoration of the Morgukai order. As part of [[the Shadow Horde]], the Dotkhauue Tiam Clan aligned themselves with Bork's cause, further strengthening the ranks of their mercenary group.
 +
 
 +
==The Zann Consortium==
 +
Following his departure from his home planet, Bork Shalas aligned himself with the notorious criminal organization known as the [[Zann Consortium]]. Within the ranks of the Consortium, Bork actively participated in numerous ground operations, leaving a significant impact on the battlefields of Vectinia and Hosnian. During these campaigns, he was directly responsible for the execution of 293 Imperial ground forces.
 +
 
 +
[[Image:Hosnian_defikers.png|thumb|left|300px|Defilers at Hosnian]]
 +
 
 +
Bork's involvement extended beyond specific engagements, as he played a crucial role in the ongoing conflict in Loedorvia between the Galactic Empire and the Zann Consortium. His combat prowess led to a notable record of 347 kills on the battlefield, further solidifying his reputation as a formidable warrior.
 +
 
 +
With the recent acquisition of the Verpine-class Heavy Cruiser Dotkhauue Tiam, which now serves as his flagship, the Crimson Horde under Bork's command has seen a substantial increase in its capabilities.

 +
===Jason Phanto's execution===
 +
Following his relentless pursuit of [[Jason Phanto]], a Krath intelligence officer who had previously attempted to seize control of [[The Death Watch]], Bork Shalas successfully uncovered Phanto's affiliation with the [[White Thranta Company]]. Seizing this opportunity, Bork devised a trap, luring Phanto into a false belief that Bork would be relocating his flagship to a planet for a hunting expedition. Unbeknownst to Phanto, Bork concealed himself inside a docked ship, awaiting the moment to strike. When Phanto boarded the vessel, Bork swiftly engaged him in combat, overpowering and defeating him with ease

 +
 
 +
Subsequently, Phanto was taken captive and confined within the dungeons of the Heavy Cruiser Dotkhauue Tiam. Recognizing the significance of this captive, Bork deemed it fitting to offer Phanto as a sacrifice to the deity M'dweshuu. Jason's execution as an offering to M'dweshuu ultimately led to the dissolution of [[The Kingdom of Midrim]], a result of Phanto's connections and influence within the organization.
 +
 
 +
===Kominiic of Zann===
 +
Bork Shalas swiftly ascended to the esteemed position of Kominiic within the [[Zann Consortium Ranks]], a title that carries significant authority and responsibility. As a Kominiic, Bork assumed the role of Zann's War Chief, assuming command over all matters pertaining to warfare and military operations within the Consortium. With his strategic acumen and formidable combat skills, Bork led numerous successful operations against the enemies of the Zann Consortium, further solidifying his reputation as a capable and respected leader within the organization.
 +
 
 +
===Terror from Above===
 +
 
 +
Bork Shalas assumed the crucial role of overseeing the operations of the Zann Consortium, Dark Star Hellions, and the Void Wolves during the blockade of the Petabys system. In this operation, pilots passing through the system were subjected to extortion, with demands for credits in exchange for safe passage. Those pilots who refused to comply faced destruction at the hands of the Consortium. During this time, the [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] dispatched their elite Razor squadrons to challenge and break the blockade. Despite several intense battles, the Kingdom was ultimately defeated.
 +
 
 +
[[File:BorkTerrorFromAbove.png|300px|thumb|left|Blockade Transmission]]
 +
 
 +
A week later, a formidable coalition composed of the Jedi Order, Blue Star Dominion, several independent pilots, and the Sanctuary Prime joined forces to launch an assault on the blockade. Once again, the Zann Consortium emerged victorious in the ensuing conflicts that unfolded within the conflict zone. However, the situation changed when the [[Rebel Alliance]] navy arrived to support the coalition led by the [[Jedi Order]]. Recognizing the shift in balance, Bork ordered the release of the blockade, successfully fulfilling the objective. The operation concluded with the destruction of 218 enemy fighters, while the [[Zann Consortium]] incurred the loss of 160 of their own fighters, with most losses attributed to utility ships used as bait for ambushes.
 +
 
 +
===The Sapin Syndicate ===
 +
As part of his Kominiic duties, Bork Shalas established diplomatic relations with the Sapin Syndicate who offered their infrastructure services to the Zann Consortium, this evolved into Sapin joining the Shadow Dominion Alliances which is led by the Consortium.
 +
Bork noticed that the Sapin Syndicate was more interested in credits than a friendship with Zann, and it became obvious when Adrian Owens leader of the Syndicate informed him that they had established a formal alliance and a mutual defense pact with the Alliance of Mercenary Consortiums. This led to the expulsion of Sapin from the Shadow Dominion.
 +
 
 +
[[File:Sapin_death_9.png|300px|thumb|right|Alvarak Padium Execution]]
 +
 
 +
After realizing that Sapin continued mining asteroid fields around Zann’s main system after being expelled from the alliance, it was clear that the Zann Consortium had to send a message to the galaxy that they would not allow anyone to disrespect them in such way.
  
On Y 20 after access to his home world was denied by the Eidola pirates, who currently hold control over Kintan, Bork decided to take the risk of traveling to Kintan through the local Starport once there he returned to the town where his family lived before it was attacked by pirates, an old man who rapidly acknowledged that Bork was the lost son of [[Mob'dait'vork Zinn]] due to their physical resemblance provided him with a mysterious  scroll, what he called shadow scrolls which contained information about the ways of the Morgukai, Bork studied the scrolls and adopted the Morgukai ways and now understands that it was M'dweshuu an ancient god of the Nikto who was responsible for his visions, Bork embraced  M'dweshuu will and decided to bring glory to the Morgukai, with the help of Local resistance members he managed to establish contact with a group of refugees, and with the help of a really skilled smuggler;  600 Niktos were rescued  from Kintan despite the Eidolan blockade
+
Chief Advisor of Zann Consortium, Kyota “Kentu” Navic approved an operation to attack the Sapin Consortium to send a clear message that the Zann dominion of the crime underworld must be respected. Bork planned and executed an operation with the support of several defilers that resulted in the capture and execution of two members of the Sapin Syndicate, one of them being their Second in Command.
  
Bork started training the refuges into becoming Morgukai warriors and soon after he met his apprentice, Bork and his apprentice would soon fund the Morgukai Conclave a Kajain'sa sect that worships M'dweshuu and seeks to restore the glory of the Morgukai order.
+
==The Cult of M'dweshuu==
[[Image:MorgukaiArmy.png|thumb|250px|left|The Morgukai Conclave]]
 
  
 +
Bork Shalas, in collaboration with Great Shaman [[Gryx Hatu]], established the [[Cult of M'dweshuu]] with the aim of promoting the Nikto Religion and resisting the occupation of Kintan by the [[Eidola Pirates]]. As part of their rituals, the cult would regularly sacrifice prisoners, mostly imperial builders who had been captured during the ongoing conflicts between the [[Zann Consortium]] and the [[Galactic Empire]] on Loedorvia II. This ensured a steady supply of prisoners for the ceremonies conducted by Great Shaman [[Gryx Hatu]].
  
 +
Bork assigned Gryx the task of forging connections with the [[Eidola Pirates]] for the purpose of gathering intelligence and establishing escape routes for refugees. However, Gryx formed genuine alliances with the pirates, causing Bork to question his loyalty. Following an altercation with a Mandalorian clan, Gryx defied Bork's orders and acted independently, using the Zann Consortium's name to extort and intimidate others. Recognizing Gryx as a rival and a disruptive influence, Bork deemed it necessary to address the situation, but out of consideration for their past friendship, he chose to spare Gryx's life.
  
 +
In a tragic turn of events, Gryx took his own life when confronted by Bork. Acting swiftly, Bork retrieved his friend's body and, with the aid of the Living Sphere and his knowledge of the Force, successfully reanimated Gryx's corpse. Gryx now serves Bork Shalas and his Shadow Horde, continuing their shared journey, albeit in a transformed state.

The Torment, with its substantial passenger and landing capacities, serves as an exceptional dropship, while its advanced weaponry enables both space and ground support during the deployment of thousands of Morgukai warriors. To facilitate docking, the [SHHS] Torment has been modified with side ports that allow it to connect with the [SHH] Red Insurgent. As the mobile headquarters of the Shadow Horde, the Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent can deploy a sizable fleet of multirole fighters and corvettes.

The Red Insurgent also functions as a Morgukai Conclave, providing shelter and gathering Kajain'sa'Nikto refugees who have been rescued from slavery, primarily under the control of Hutt overlords. These refugees are then inducted as Morgukai warriors by the horde's warlord. Bork's personal fleet operates as part of the broader Shadow Horde fleet, which is recognized as a small navy with comprehensive space and ground capabilities, comparable to medium-sized paramilitary groups.

Among the notable ships in the Warchief's personal fleet are the Sphyrna-class Corvette [SHH] Tyrant, a swift troop transport that has actively participated in various operations, including Zann's offensive endeavors during the Gazaan War. Additionally, the VCX-100 Light Freighter [CH] Senaar #1 is utilized as a rapid hunting transport, while the agile reconnaissance YT-510 [SHH] Kouuicala contributes to the fleet's fast reconnaissance capabilities.

==Cracked Skulls==
 +
In the year 23, the [[The Skulls Swoop Gang]] dispatched two seasoned bounty hunters, Sean Trinity and Seth Bender, who were also aspiring members of the gang, to track down Bork Shalas. Under the guise of seeking to become apprentices of the Nikto "Morgukai" religion, they approached Bork Shalas with the intention of manipulating him. It is believed that Harlan Ulikk, the new President of the Skulls swoop gang, enticed Seth Bender and Sean Trinity with promises of notoriety, wealth, and membership in the gang. They were offered a significant percentage of a substantial sum, purportedly paid by a mysterious client, for capturing Zann members, with the leadership members being valued at over a billion credits each.

However, Bork Shalas, through his force visions, discerned the true intentions of his supposed disciples and was prepared for their treachery. Aboard his flagship, the Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent, a brief confrontation ensued between the three. Bork, wielding his Morgukai staff, swiftly disabled Sean's vibroblade and then slew him. He then engaged in combat with Seth Bender and emerged victorious. The encounter was short-lived, and Bork Shalas managed to defeat the two bounty hunters without assistance from his personal guards.
  
 +
Following the fight, Sean Trinity was apprehended by Bork Shalas' guards and confined to the ship's dungeon. However, his time in captivity was brief, as he ingested a vial of poison concealed within his Skulls' Prospect Jacket, ending his own life.
  
Bork has participated in several Zann Consortium ground operations, most notably on Vectinia and Hosnian where he was accountable for 293 executions of Imperial ground forces.

In the year 23, Bork Shalas spearheaded a critical mission in collaboration with the Zann Defilers to eliminate Iskandar Valerian, a former associate of the Zann Consortium who had divulged classified information to the Interstellar Regulators. Iskandar's actions branded him as a traitor and informant, prompting the Consortium to assign Bork with the responsibility of silencing him. With meticulous planning and coordination, the trap was set and executed flawlessly, resulting in the merciless assassination of Iskandar Valerian by the Defiler known as "Scorn." The successful operation ensured that the threat posed by Iskandar's betrayal was swiftly neutralized.

Engaging an ill-prepared and inexperienced coalition comprised of the Skull Swoop Gang and the Bounty Hunters Guild, the Zann forces effectively utilized Defiler advancements to secure victory. The engagement resulted in the elimination of approximately 230 Skulls and Bounty Hunters Guild mercenaries, while only three Zann-affiliated mercenaries lost their lives in the operation. Furthermore, a total of 200 K-4 droids were neutralized during the course of the combat events. This successful operation significantly disrupted the Skull Swoop Gang's influence and established the Zann Consortium's dominance in the region.

His possession and utilization of the Living Sphere have undoubtedly marked Bork Shalas as a notable figure among Force users, making him a subject of intrigue and interest among scholars, Jedi, and enthusiasts of the Force alike.

Biography

Bork guarding a palace.

Bork, a notable Morgukai warrior, endured a traumatic childhood when he was forcefully separated from his home planet of Kintan and enslaved by a nearby Hutt Crime Lord. Devastating news reached him that his family and village had been massacred due to a rebellion sparked by his abduction. As a slave guard for a Hutt Lord on Tatooine, Bork's exceptional combat abilities caught the attention of his master, who further trained him as an assassin. Infamous for his lethal enforcement on behalf of the Hutt crime lords, Bork remained haunted by the memory of his family's demise at the hands of the cartel.

Corona-class Frigate, 'M'dweshuu'

Driven by a deep-seated hatred for his former masters, Bork rejected his slave status and embarked on a path of vengeance. In a furious rampage, he rebelled against the Hutts and ultimately assassinated the Hutt Lord who had claimed ownership over him.

Following the assassination, a bounty was placed on Bork's head as retribution for his actions against the Hutts. Faced with the imminent danger of bounty hunters and assassins guarding the entrance of the local Starport, Bork managed to escape Tatooine by disguising himself with a robe obtained from a defeated bounty hunter. Seeking refuge on Malastare, he engaged with local merchants to acquire essential equipment. With only his modified BD-1 Cutter as a weapon, Bork honed his combat skills by confronting formidable creatures and bandit squads on his own. Through the sale of creature trophies and rare equipment obtained from defeated adversaries, he gathered resources before departing from Malastare, setting out on a relentless pursuit of power with the sole desire to become stronger.

Crime and illegal business

Bork Shalas is an individual who has amassed significant wealth through engaging in criminal activities such as theft, mercenary work, and illicit relic trafficking.

Bork serves as the leader of a group of grave looters, known for their operations involving the theft and smuggling of valuable ancient relics. These stolen artifacts are subsequently sold through underground channels within the black market.

To conceal and legitimize his ill-gotten gains, Bork is suspected to engage in credit laundering. It is believed that he utilizes the Hanka-oba Night Club, which he administers, as a front for these activities. The night club itself is owned by The Hutt Cartel, an entity associated with Bork's criminal endeavors.

The Force

Hunting on Kinyen.

After discovering his latent Force sensitivity, Bork Shalas embarked on a personal quest to unravel the mysteries of this enigmatic energy. Initially facing difficulties in deepening his connection with the Force, Bork dedicated himself to rigorous training, eventually harnessing its power to bolster his own strength.

During this transformative period, Bork made a significant acquisition - a Corona-class Frigate named 'M'dweshuu'. Recognizing the need for a capable crew to operate his newly obtained vessel, he enlisted the services of a skilled group of Gran mercenaries, aligning their efforts with his hunting operations. Setting a course for Kinyen, Bork and his hired mercenaries ventured on another expedition.

The ship wreck that Bork found the Living Sphere in.

However, as fate would have it, Bork's drop-ship encountered mechanical issues, forcing them to make an emergency landing in a remote clearing nestled deep within the jungles of Kinyen. To their astonishment, the clearing turned out to be the site of ancient ship wreckage. Seizing the opportunity, Bork and his crew embarked on an exploratory mission, hoping to uncover valuable artifacts.

Amidst the ruins, it was Bork who stumbled upon a mysterious green-glowing sphere. Sensing an inexplicable connection between the sphere and the Force, Bork realized that he had not arrived at this place by mere chance. It became clear to him that the Force had guided him to this significant discovery for a purpose. Intrigued and recognizing its potential, he decided to claim the sphere as his own, dedicating a room within his Corona-class Frigate to house the orb and other Force artifacts he had encountered during his journey.

With the acquisition of the mysterious sphere, Bork discovered that his ability to connect with the Force had significantly strengthened. Empowered by this newfound connection, he swiftly ascended to become one of the most formidable Force users in the Outer Rim. His deepening understanding and mastery of the Force solidified his position as a renowned and powerful presence in the galaxy.

The Living Sphere

Bork and the Living Sphere.

The enigmatic sphere discovered by Bork in Kinyen held a profound and undeniable connection to the Force. Driven by an unwavering determination to uncover the secrets within, Bork dedicated himself to further exploration of the sphere's mysterious energy. Through deep meditation and the focused use of the Force, he managed to tap into its power, extracting a portion of its energy for himself.

This newfound energy granted Bork the ability to experience vivid visions of both past and future events. However, these visions also brought forth constant nightmares and haunting encounters with an ancient demon known as Malmourral, the Demon of War. Through his visions, the demon prophesied that Bork would play a pivotal role in a momentous conflict destined to engulf the galaxy. Empowered by these visions, Bork's connection to the Force deepened, and he harnessed the energy of the Living Sphere to enhance his skills and abilities.

Bork receiving a vision from the Living Sphere.

Driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, Bork and his crew returned to Kinyen and revisited the site of the ship wreckage. Through careful analysis of the records and data files recovered from the main computer, they uncovered the true identity of the mysterious object — it was called "The Living Sphere," an artifact created by the ancient Frangawl Clan, a long-forgotten cult. The sphere served as a vessel that contained the life essence of numerous sacrificed sentient beings, each soul responsible for the visions that haunted Bork.

During their stay in the capital city of Kinyen, Bork stumbled upon the lifeless body of a murdered Trandoshan near a local cantina. Intriguingly, as Bork brought the Living Sphere closer to the corpse, it began to emit a radiant glow. Suddenly, the dead Trandoshan was reanimated, but his essence had been greatly altered. He had become an undead slave devoid of his former self, blindly obedient to any command. This encounter solidified Bork's understanding that the Living Sphere indeed served as a receptacle for the life essences of unfortunate victims of the Frangawl Clan.

The Living Sphere

Recognizing the finite nature of the energy within the sphere, Bork understood that its power diminished with each use. He came to the realization that to recharge the Living Sphere, he would need to harvest the life essence of other beings, effectively stealing their life force. This realization placed Bork at a moral crossroads, knowing that he would eventually have to make difficult choices to sustain the energy within the sphere.

The Shadow Horde

Crimson Horde In Malastare

In recent years, Bork has actively sought to expand the ranks of his formidable mercenary group, known as The Shadow Horde. To bolster the Horde's numbers, Bork has successfully enlisted mercenaries hailing from the homeworlds of Kinyen and Malastare. Initially, the Shadow Horde consisted primarily of Dugs and Gran, forming a diverse and capable force.

The visions brought forth by the Living Sphere played a pivotal role in the formation of the Horde. Within these visions, the enigmatic Demon of War, Malmourral, reached out to Bork, foretelling a great war that looms on the horizon. Malmourral bestowed upon Bork the knowledge of his significant role in this impending conflict.

As the visions unfolded, Bork was entrusted with the understanding that the Shadow Horde would play a crucial part in shaping the outcome of this monumental war. Empowered by these insights and driven by a sense of purpose, Bork actively recruited mercenaries and warriors, assembling a formidable force to fulfill the destiny foretold by Malmourral.

Through careful selection and strategic alliances, the Shadow Horde has grown into a formidable fighting force, ready to face the challenges that lie ahead. Bork's unwavering commitment to fulfilling his role in the coming war has made him a respected leader, while the Living Sphere continues to guide him on his journey, providing invaluable insights and strengthening his connection to the Force.

The Dotkhauue Tiam Clan

Shadow Scroll

As time went on, Bork came to a realization that his visions were not solely connected to the Living Sphere. He understood that there was a deeper meaning behind them. Recognizing that the answers he sought lay within his own past, Bork delved into his lineage as the son of Mob'dait'vork Zinn, a renowned Morgukai Warrior and hero of Kintan.

Driven by a desire to follow in his father's footsteps and become a great Morgukai warrior, Bork sought the guidance of a prominent Morgukai warrior. This wise mentor provided crucial insights and information about the ways of the Morgukai. Intrigued by the teachings and traditions of this mysterious cult, Bork embarked on a quest to learn more and embrace his Morgukai heritage.

In the year 20, faced with the Eidola pirates' control over Kintan and the denial of access to his home world, Bork decided to take a risk and travel to Kintan through the local Starport. Returning to the town where his family had once lived, Bork encountered an elderly man who quickly recognized him as the long-lost son of Mob'dait'vork Zinn, noting their striking physical resemblance. This man entrusted Bork with a set of ancient scrolls known as the Shadow Scrolls, containing valuable information about the ways of the Morgukai.

Studying these scrolls and immersing himself in the teachings they contained, Bork adopted the Morgukai ways. It was during this time that he came to understand that his visions were a result of M'dweshuu, an ancient deity worshiped by the Nikto. Embracing the will of M'dweshuu, Bork resolved to bring glory to the Morgukai. With the assistance of local resistance members, he managed to establish contact with a group of refugees and, with the aid of a skilled smuggler, orchestrated the rescue of 600 Niktos from Kintan, defying the Eidolan blockade.

Bork began training the rescued refugees to become Morgukai warriors, and in due course, he encountered his apprentice. Together, they would go on to establish the Morgukai Conclave, a Kajain'sa sect dedicated to the worship of M'dweshuu and the restoration of the Morgukai order. As part of the Shadow Horde, the Dotkhauue Tiam Clan aligned themselves with Bork's cause, further strengthening the ranks of their mercenary group.

The Zann Consortium

Following his departure from his home planet, Bork Shalas aligned himself with the notorious criminal organization known as the Zann Consortium. Within the ranks of the Consortium, Bork actively participated in numerous ground operations, leaving a significant impact on the battlefields of Vectinia and Hosnian. During these campaigns, he was directly responsible for the execution of 293 Imperial ground forces.

Defilers at Hosnian

Bork's involvement extended beyond specific engagements, as he played a crucial role in the ongoing conflict in Loedorvia between the Galactic Empire and the Zann Consortium. His combat prowess led to a notable record of 347 kills on the battlefield, further solidifying his reputation as a formidable warrior.

With the recent acquisition of the Verpine-class Heavy Cruiser Dotkhauue Tiam, which now serves as his flagship, the Crimson Horde under Bork's command has seen a substantial increase in its capabilities. Viewing his horde as a loyal militia, Bork envisions utilizing their collective strength to provide unwavering support to the Zann Consortium in future conflicts and endeavors.

Jason Phanto Execution

Jason Phanto's execution

Following his relentless pursuit of Jason Phanto, a Krath intelligence officer who had previously attempted to seize control of The Death Watch, Bork Shalas successfully uncovered Phanto's affiliation with the White Thranta Company. Seizing this opportunity, Bork devised a trap, luring Phanto into a false belief that Bork would be relocating his flagship to a planet for a hunting expedition. Unbeknownst to Phanto, Bork concealed himself inside a docked ship, awaiting the moment to strike. When Phanto boarded the vessel, Bork swiftly engaged him in combat, overpowering and defeating him with ease

"M'dweshuu please accept this offering of blood, may the infidels blood ease your wrath"
— Mussothot Kekmerr M'dweshuu cultist and main shaman


Subsequently, Phanto was taken captive and confined within the dungeons of the Heavy Cruiser Dotkhauue Tiam. Recognizing the significance of this captive, Bork deemed it fitting to offer Phanto as a sacrifice to the deity M'dweshuu. Jason's execution as an offering to M'dweshuu ultimately led to the dissolution of The Kingdom of Midrim, a result of Phanto's connections and influence within the organization.

Kominiic of Zann

Bork Shalas swiftly ascended to the esteemed position of Kominiic within the Zann Consortium Ranks, a title that carries significant authority and responsibility. As a Kominiic, Bork assumed the role of Zann's War Chief, assuming command over all matters pertaining to warfare and military operations within the Consortium. With his strategic acumen and formidable combat skills, Bork led numerous successful operations against the enemies of the Zann Consortium, further solidifying his reputation as a capable and respected leader within the organization.

Terror from Above

Bork Shalas assumed the crucial role of overseeing the operations of the Zann Consortium, Dark Star Hellions, and the Void Wolves during the blockade of the Petabys system. In this operation, pilots passing through the system were subjected to extortion, with demands for credits in exchange for safe passage. Those pilots who refused to comply faced destruction at the hands of the Consortium. During this time, the Tresario Star Kingdom dispatched their elite Razor squadrons to challenge and break the blockade. Despite several intense battles, the Kingdom was ultimately defeated.

Blockade Transmission

A week later, a formidable coalition composed of the Jedi Order, Blue Star Dominion, several independent pilots, and the Sanctuary Prime joined forces to launch an assault on the blockade. Once again, the Zann Consortium emerged victorious in the ensuing conflicts that unfolded within the conflict zone. However, the situation changed when the Rebel Alliance navy arrived to support the coalition led by the Jedi Order. Recognizing the shift in balance, Bork ordered the release of the blockade, successfully fulfilling the objective. The operation concluded with the destruction of 218 enemy fighters, while the Zann Consortium incurred the loss of 160 of their own fighters, with most losses attributed to utility ships used as bait for ambushes.

The Sapin Syndicate

As part of his Kominiic duties, Bork Shalas established diplomatic relations with the Sapin Syndicate who offered their infrastructure services to the Zann Consortium, this evolved into Sapin joining the Shadow Dominion Alliances which is led by the Consortium. Bork noticed that the Sapin Syndicate was more interested in credits than a friendship with Zann, and it became obvious when Adrian Owens leader of the Syndicate informed him that they had established a formal alliance and a mutual defense pact with the Alliance of Mercenary Consortiums. This led to the expulsion of Sapin from the Shadow Dominion.

Alvarak Padium Execution

After realizing that Sapin continued mining asteroid fields around Zann’s main system after being expelled from the alliance, it was clear that the Zann Consortium had to send a message to the galaxy that they would not allow anyone to disrespect them in such way.

Chief Advisor of Zann Consortium, Kyota “Kentu” Navic approved an operation to attack the Sapin Consortium to send a clear message that the Zann dominion of the crime underworld must be respected. Bork planned and executed an operation with the support of several defilers that resulted in the capture and execution of two members of the Sapin Syndicate, one of them being their Second in Command.

The Cult of M'dweshuu

Bork Shalas, in collaboration with Great Shaman Gryx Hatu, established the Cult of M'dweshuu with the aim of promoting the Nikto Religion and resisting the occupation of Kintan by the Eidola Pirates. As part of their rituals, the cult would regularly sacrifice prisoners, mostly imperial builders who had been captured during the ongoing conflicts between the Zann Consortium and the Galactic Empire on Loedorvia II. This ensured a steady supply of prisoners for the ceremonies conducted by Great Shaman Gryx Hatu.

Bork assigned Gryx the task of forging connections with the Eidola Pirates for the purpose of gathering intelligence and establishing escape routes for refugees. However, Gryx formed genuine alliances with the pirates, causing Bork to question his loyalty. Following an altercation with a Mandalorian clan, Gryx defied Bork's orders and acted independently, using the Zann Consortium's name to extort and intimidate others. Recognizing Gryx as a rival and a disruptive influence, Bork deemed it necessary to address the situation, but out of consideration for their past friendship, he chose to spare Gryx's life.

In a tragic turn of events, Gryx took his own life when confronted by Bork. Acting swiftly, Bork retrieved his friend's body and, with the aid of the Living Sphere and his knowledge of the Force, successfully reanimated Gryx's corpse. Gryx now serves Bork Shalas and his Shadow Horde, continuing their shared journey, albeit in a transformed state.

The Gazaan War

Bork Shalas effectively led the Zann Consortium and their allies in the invasion of the planet Gazaan, engaging the Galactic Alliance forces. Under Bork's command, the formidable Shadow Horde achieved remarkable success, resulting in the elimination of 1041 enemy combatants and the capture of 19 officers, including notable individuals such as Perris Hughes, Kaze Zhill, Mezrakh Ir`walh, Karl Hawkmoon, Larry Turner, Jonas Kanuteau, Tidus Rose, Noah Hatfield, Rexan Traner, Esu Kyoto, and Allaina Musava. Noteworthy accomplishments during the campaign include the defeat of a fully grown Rathar and the destruction of 32 Destroyer droids.

The Warchief's Fleet

Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent

Following the conclusion of the Gazaan war, Bork made significant enhancements to his fleet, focusing on enhancing troop deployment capabilities and space supremacy. A notable addition to his fleet is the Valor-class Cruiser [SHHS] Torment, which is often docked with Bork's flagship, the Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent. The Torment, with its substantial passenger and landing capacities, serves as an exceptional dropship, while its advanced weaponry enables both space and ground support during the deployment of thousands of Morgukai warriors. To facilitate docking, the [SHHS] Torment has been modified with side ports that allow it to connect with the [SHH] Red Insurgent. As the mobile headquarters of the Shadow Horde, the Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent can deploy a sizable fleet of multirole fighters and corvettes.

The Red Insurgent also functions as a Morgukai Conclave, providing shelter and gathering Kajain'sa'Nikto refugees who have been rescued from slavery, primarily under the control of Hutt overlords. These refugees are then inducted as Morgukai warriors by the horde's warlord. Bork's personal fleet operates as part of the broader Shadow Horde fleet, which is recognized as a small navy with comprehensive space and ground capabilities, comparable to medium-sized paramilitary groups.


Among the notable ships in the Warchief's personal fleet are the Sphyrna-class Corvette [SHH] Tyrant, a swift troop transport that has actively participated in various operations, including Zann's offensive endeavors during the Gazaan War. Additionally, the VCX-100 Light Freighter [CH] Senaar #1 is utilized as a rapid hunting transport, while the agile reconnaissance YT-510 [SHH] Kouuicala contributes to the fleet's fast reconnaissance capabilities.

Bork Shalas' New Colossal-class Heavy Carrier: The Dread Shadow

Bork Shalas, the renowned leader of the Shadow Horde, has recently acquired a formidable addition to his fleet, a new Colossal-class Heavy Carrier. This massive warship, appropriately named "The Dread Shadow," has been meticulously customized and modified to suit Bork's strategic vision for combat operations.

One of the distinctive features of The Dread Shadow is its striking retractable banners, which serve a dual purpose: intimidation and declaration. When the ship prepares to launch its devastating raids, these banners unfurl, proudly announcing the symbol of The Shadow Horde. This audacious display sends a chilling message, striking fear into the hearts of those who dare to oppose the Shadow Horde.

The imposing exterior of The Dread Shadow reflects the dark nature of the Shadow Horde. Painted in a sinister combination of black and adorned with crimson stripes, the ship's aesthetic symbolizes the blood spilled by its enemies, as if emerging from the depths of shadows. This unique design not only sets it apart from other vessels but also serves as a symbol of the relentless and merciless nature of Bork and his forces.

As Bork's flagship, The Dread Shadow takes center stage as the primary capital ship in his fleet. With its superior combat capabilities, it becomes the centerpiece of offensive operations, projecting the might and power of the Shadow Horde. Bork's previous colossal-class ship, the Red Insurgent, is repurposed to fulfill logistics and carrier roles, supporting The Dread Shadow and ensuring the efficient deployment of forces and supplies.

The acquisition of The Dread Shadow signifies Bork Shalas' unwavering dedication to expand the might and reach of the Shadow Horde. Its unique features and adaptations demonstrate his strategic vision and commitment to instilling fear in his enemies. As the war rages on, the Shadow Horde's new flagship stands as a symbol of dominance and heralds the arrival of swift and devastating assaults on their adversaries.

Cracked Skulls

In the year 23, the The Skulls Swoop Gang dispatched two seasoned bounty hunters, Sean Trinity and Seth Bender, who were also aspiring members of the gang, to track down Bork Shalas. Under the guise of seeking to become apprentices of the Nikto "Morgukai" religion, they approached Bork Shalas with the intention of manipulating him. It is believed that Harlan Ulikk, the new President of the Skulls swoop gang, enticed Seth Bender and Sean Trinity with promises of notoriety, wealth, and membership in the gang. They were offered a significant percentage of a substantial sum, purportedly paid by a mysterious client, for capturing Zann members, with the leadership members being valued at over a billion credits each.

However, Bork Shalas, through his force visions, discerned the true intentions of his supposed disciples and was prepared for their treachery. Aboard his flagship, the Colossal-class Heavy Carrier [SHH] Red Insurgent, a brief confrontation ensued between the three. Bork, wielding his Morgukai staff, swiftly disabled Sean's vibroblade and then slew him. He then engaged in combat with Seth Bender and emerged victorious. The encounter was short-lived, and Bork Shalas managed to defeat the two bounty hunters without assistance from his personal guards.

Following the fight, Sean Trinity was apprehended by Bork Shalas' guards and confined to the ship's dungeon. However, his time in captivity was brief, as he ingested a vial of poison concealed within his Skulls' Prospect Jacket, ending his own life.

Operation Last Holocall

In the year 23, Bork Shalas spearheaded a critical mission in collaboration with the Zann Defilers to eliminate Iskandar Valerian, a former associate of the Zann Consortium who had divulged classified information to the Interstellar Regulators. Iskandar's actions branded him as a traitor and informant, prompting the Consortium to assign Bork with the responsibility of silencing him. With meticulous planning and coordination, the trap was set and executed flawlessly, resulting in the merciless assassination of Iskandar Valerian by the Defiler known as "Scorn." The successful operation ensured that the threat posed by Iskandar's betrayal was swiftly neutralized.

Surprise Attack on the Skulls Swoop Gang

In the year 23, Bork Shalas orchestrated a surprise assault on the planet Serroco with the objective of disrupting the operations of the Skull Swoop Gang. This strategic maneuver was made possible by the valuable intelligence reports provided by the Void Wolves, which offered detailed information on the positions and presence of the Skulls. The Zann Consortium swiftly assembled a formidable force, demonstrating exceptional preparedness within a remarkably short period.

Engaging an ill-prepared and inexperienced coalition comprised of the Skull Swoop Gang and the Bounty Hunters Guild, the Zann forces effectively utilized Defiler advancements to secure victory. The engagement resulted in the elimination of approximately 230 Skulls and Bounty Hunters Guild mercenaries, while only three Zann-affiliated mercenaries lost their lives in the operation. Furthermore, a total of 200 K-4 droids were neutralized during the course of the combat events. This successful operation significantly disrupted the Skull Swoop Gang's influence and established the Zann Consortium's dominance in the region.

Kowak Assault

Under Bork's leadership, an assault force known as the "Soul Reavers" executed a highly successful attack resulting in the destruction of 12 Blue Star Dominion and 6 Rebel Alliance RZ-1 A-wings. Additionally, two Blue Star Dominion MC-30b Corvettes, the Zill's Guidance and the Edik's Courage, were neutralized during the Raid on the Kowak System.

The operation commenced with a Defiler vanguard, led by Ximaro Jix, the Crime Lord of Zann, strategically destroying the satellites. This action served a dual purpose: provoking a response from the Consortium's adversaries and eliminating any potential intelligence on Zann's ship movements once the combat unfolded. Upon the arrival of Dominion officers and their allies, they were swiftly overwhelmed by the formidable force of the "Soul Reavers" comprising Consortium fighters and corvettes.

Bork Shalas himself played a pivotal role in the engagement, single-handedly responsible for the destruction of 12 RZ-1 A-wings. This calculated attack was part of a larger guerrilla warfare tactic devised to dismantle rebel defenses, allowing Consortium ships to effectively deliver supplies to local insurgents. The increased insurgent activity targeted Rebel Alliance assets on the planet's surface, further weakening their position in the region.
