## Early Life

### Birth

Solus was born on Terminus to a small village. Lightning filled the sky when he was born. He was soon discovered because of his force sensitivity. Darth Wyyrlok IV learned of him just a few days after his birth and took him from his home world.

## Raised by a Sith

### Darth Wyyrlok IV

Wyyrlok refused to let the Jedi take him. She was a cruel master even by Sith standards of cruel and would mentally and physically show Solus what true pain was.
He trained Day and night. Wyyrlok would press Solus from the time he could stand. He learned to fight.

### Haunting

Yet there was one thing that plagued Solus from a young age. Something that haunted him to his core. He had been trained to ignore distractions, stay true to his course and so he did. These...visions of a girl around his own age, with long dark hair and brandy eyes tormented his mind. Time and time again he would shake her from his thoughts, yet something wasn't quite right.

## Training

### Return to Terminus

When he was 7 years old Wyyrlok sent the boy back to Terminus. Upon landing he wreaked havoc upon the village. It was as if fire and brimstone had fallen from the heavens above. Solus did the bidding of his master, slaughtering every last man, woman, and child.

### A Heart for a Heart

The last person was he killed was his mother. The last of the villagers had been lined up. She was the final one. The woman who bore him looked into his eyes as she trembled beneath his might. Yet again the visions haunted and plagued his mind, he could hear a voice somewhere off in the distance, the girl was trying to tell him something, something he couldn't quite make out. Then she screamed no as he pushed her from his mind and he pulled the heart from his mother's chest.

When he returned from his mission Wyyrlok beat him for holding back in previous encounters. She said he showed more power then she had ever seen in him and that he had failed before. He could have been training harder. With each smack of the rod he began to plot her end.

One year later the time came. The twos sabers ignited and clashed. They trained furiously, she began to fear for her life as the very young Sith pressed his attack. The training she had given him was now being used against her. As the hatred grew with each swing she faltered and fell. Solus’ face looked cracked like porcelain and had black spider like lines creeping through. She stared up at him and attempted to lift a hand to defend herself. In a flash of crimson her hand fell dead to the ground. She screamed. How Solus longed for this moment. Her screams echoed and his rage grew. He extended his hands and lightning shot from his finger into the flailing body of Darth Wyyrlok IV. Her screams died and silence remained.

## The Lone Wolf

### A Life Without

His first actions were to continue his training. Solus ran to her quarters and quickly gather holocrons. Still only a child he was to have to learn everything else on his own. He started with saber combat. He trained day in and day out. He sweat, blood, and pain fueled his next day. As he mastered his favorite style he wished to reconnect with the force power that took his masters life. Lightning would mark his life.

The holocrons told him what he need but he needed more then the knowledge. He knew he needed to be able to take the hits. He needed to know the pain. He turned the lightning on himself. It allowed his power to grow. He felt the torturous shock, the burning of his skin, and knew where he was going. It took years of training to master the techniques. His resistance to lightning grew as he learned to take and redirect the hits. He longed for more. So he left the small base Wyyrlok had kept him on. He searched out more holocrons, they were to be his teachers. Every step he trained harder with greater ferocity. His collection of holocrons grew rapidly as did his skills.

### Korriban

When he turned twenty standard years of age he decided it was time. He took his ship and collection of holocrons to a remote point on Korriban. He searched long for a remote tomb of a great Sith one that would serve as his new training grounds and base of operations. It was here he would meet the Emperor, Darth Dreadwar and the Empress Darth Viscretus.

## Eternal Sith Empire

### Dark Council

Despite his age it did not take long for the young man to make a name for himself. The Sith were in a time of great unrest. Many clamored for the ability to hold rank, to hold power within their very hands. Yet fate would have other plans. During a battle for control Solus stepped forth, he fought all others making fools of themselves as the tried to climb to the higher echelons of Sith society. Such did not go unnoticed. As such he was granted a position as a councilmember on the Empire's Dark Council.

### Supreme Military Commander

Not only would the newly appointed Lord Solus take on a place upon the Empire's Council, Empress Viscretus would take notice of skill and put such to good use. Lord Solus was to take charge of the Military and don the uniform of the Supreme Military Commander. He took pride in the work he did, building the military from the ground up.

### Training of Deleritas

Around the same time an acolyte arrived in the Empire, a young man by the name of Deleritas. Perhaps it was Solus seeing a reflection of himself within the man, yet he took him on as his apprentice and began the long, grueling challenge of parting ones knowledge onto another. Deleritas would make it through a majority of his training before the Master and Apprentice were pulled to The Citadel.

### Awakening

Just before they would depart, as Solus prepared for the mission ahead. The visions returned as he stood alone in the abandoned tomb that served as the Imperial Military headquarters. Something pulled inside of him, like the thread connected to a much larger web that connected the galaxy. He saw the little girl, he saw her yet again barely older than sixteen standard years, she was in danger. Solus could hear himself tell her to run. A woman. A Queen. Once a Jedi seduced by darkness. The visions enlightened him to the woman's life as the Queen of Darkness and Shadows. Yet why should he be privy...the vision hit like a large stone crashing to the ground. The Queen lay in a cryo chamber, somewhere far away, hidden from prying eyes. She slept, forced into deep slumber. Questions ran through his mind. Why? For how long? Was she in danger? Why did it matter to him? Her eyes struck open, pools of brandy, the slightest drops of crimson bleeding in and taking over. So, the Queen of Darkness and Shadows had awakened.

Lord Solus was not the only one to sense the awakening. Troubled by the visions. He discussed the matter with the Emperor who explained that he indeed had seen the former Queen of Darkness and Shadows.The Emperor had sensed her awakening as well, as did the former Dark Lord who had cast her out. Yet he could not tell Solus why he was the third to know. In time she would come to aid the Empire for now Solus was to take his apprentice to Dromund Kaas.

### The Citadel

(insert info on OST: The Citadel)

Solus would be plagued once more. The visions he thought he had gained control over would revive themselves once more. This time seemingly with a ravenous hunger that could not be satiated. he saw her, the girl, as the years went on she appeared to him having aged slightly older each time. When she was younger he knew when she was in danger, he had told her to run. Now here she was a woman, in a vast library somewhere he did not recognize. It would seem she was searching for something. This time the visions were different. He would no longer stand in The Citadel, he was elsewhere. A jungle full of lush emerald foliage. He stood behind her petite frame. If he had reached out he could have touched her, to the average man it would have been tempting. Yet Solus took to his training and was gone, leaving her in the forest to whatever she may find.

(Add ending to The Citadel)

## Canto Bight

### Queen of Darkness and Shadows

Upon his return Solus contemplated his encounter with the Emperor. The Emperor had spoken of her skill, even directing the Supreme Commander to the holocrons left behind about the former Queen. Solus felt as if she would be of use and on the Emperor's command he would send out various encrypted transmissions over a short period of time to receive her guidance on matters of importance to the Empire.

Then a mission came through from Lord Vassago himself. Solus knew the time had come. He reached out to his contact, indicating the importance of the mission. The former Queen reluctantly agreed. She was to meet Lord Solus on Korriban where the two would set off for Cantonica. Little did he know that the Queen, Darth Vesper was also plagued with visions of him since she was a child. yet unlike Lord Solus, Vesper had never seen his face, she only knew of the man in the mask. Vesper kept her thoughts well hidden, yet the Force had other plans.

While en route to Cantonica the meeting of the two Sith had caused the Mind Witch's abilities to become unstable. The instability of the visions throwing the them into an illusory world, assaulting them with their past. Solus and Vesper learned much about eachother in those few hours. Becoming closer than they had ever expected.

### The Unknown Shadows

Upon arrival to Canto Bight the two checked in under aliases and were shown to their room. The evening was filled with fleshing out the details of the mission that lay before them. Solus ensured that Vesper's powers would not interfere in anyway and once assured Vesper was able to share her thoughts on the matter of what had taken place on the journey over. The discussion led to the two delving into the unknown shadows.
