Bactranate The Bactranate was the name that was given by Jedi Master Vannar Treece to a state in the Grumani sector that was ruled by the Quermian Sith Lord Ayanos Bactra during the time of the New Sith Wars . The state encompassed the world Sarrassia and had its capital on the planet Jutrand . It had borders with two Sith states that Treece referred to as the Daimanate and the Odionate . In 1032 BBY , the Bactranate collapsed after Calimondra family matriarch Vilia Calimondra ordered her grandchildren to turn on Lord Bactra and to invade his domain . Within days , the Bactranate collapsed and its territories and corporate assets were divided up among her grandchildren during a family bequest . History . The Bactranate was one of the Sith fiefdoms which emerged following the collapse of the Chagras Hegemony in 1040 BBY . With the death of its titular ruler Chagras , his former domain descended into anarchy as several rival Sith warlords fought for power . The conflict was abbetted by the Calimondra family matriarch Vilia Calimondra who promoted the Second " Charge Matrica " under the pretext of bequeathing her substantial empire and assets to the grandchild that conquered the most territory . While most other Sith warlords in the Grumani sector nationalized corporations and seized their assets and work forces , Bactra saw them as assets and preferred to work with them as partners . This enabled the Bactranate to project its influence into the other parts of Sith Space that he could not dominate . One of these companies was Industrial Heuristics , which specialized in the development of mobile war universities known as arxeum s . In 1032 BBY , the Sith Lord Odion learnt that his estranged younger brother Daiman had commissioned the development of a new prototype warship known as the " Convergence " and sent the Bothan spy Narsk Ka ' hane , an independent operative , to obtain intelligence on the vessel and to destroy the Black Fang research installation . Unknown to Odion , Narsk was actually a deep cover agent working for the Calimondra family matriarch Vilia Calimondra but posed as a mercenary spy who sold his services to the highest bidder . However , the Jedi Knight Kerra Holt intercepted Narsk and destroyed the datapad containing the data before destroying the building with baradium thermal charges . Like Narsk , she intended to destroy the Black Fang facility as a means of sabotaging Daiman ' s war effort . She then stole Narsk ' s Cryricept Mark IV stealth suit and left him behind to be captured by Daiman ' s Corrector s . Despite Narsk ' s denials , Daiman suspected that Odion had a role in the bombing and constructed a concocted scheme to lure Odion into another trap on Gazzari . Daiman then approached Lord Bactra with an offer to buy an arxeum — a mobile university dedicated to war research — from Industrial Heuristics . Daiman also offered to provide the students for the university . The transaction would occur on Gazzari and he promised Bactra ' s forces safe passage to the Gazzari system . However , he arranged for Narsk to listen to the proceedings and then to escape back to the Odionate . Daiman also contracted the services of several mercenaries including the Brigadier Jarrow Rusher and convinced to set a trap on Gazzari . They assembled their forces including artillery cannons on the edge of a massive caldera . As planned , Odion saw the Gazzari deal as an opportunity to wreck further bloodshed and destruction and dispatched a fleet to invade the planet . Odion ' s forces invaded the planet only to be trapped in the caldera by enemy fire . During the fighting , Odion quickly regained his advantage by deploying the Death Spiral — a massive mobile siege platform . However , Kerra destroyed the Death Spiral and managed to save the children . She then convinced the mercenary Brigadier Jarrow Rusher — who had lost five - sixths of his forces — to evacuate the refugees offworld aboard his troopship " Diligence . " Unknown to Kerra , the Calimondra family matriarch Vilia was able to monitor her movements since the stealth suit impigned onto an information network used by the Sith despot to monitor her underlings . In the middle of the Battle of Gazzari , Vilia sent a coded transmission to Narsk ordering him to transmit a message to her grandsons Odion and Daiman . The matriarch had felt that Lord Bactra had outlived his usefulness to the family and ordered them to turn on the Bactranate . Odion ' s and Daiman ' s forces ceased fighting each other and turned on the Bactranate fleet in the system . They then launched an invasion of the Bactranate with Odion ' s forces capturing the capital Jutrand . Meanwhile , Lord Bactra fled into hiding at a Quermian retirement colony . Within days , the Bactranate had collapsed and Vilia convened a Bequest . The Bactranate ' s territories were divided up between the Sith Lords Odion , Daiman , Malakite , and Lioko while his vast corporate assets were divided up among the family . While Odion acquired Jutrand through military conquest , Daiman acquired Industrial Heuristics . However , Odion challenged Daiman ' s claim to the company on the basis that it had been based on Jutrand and was thus booty .
