―Araak Sin
**Araak Sin** was a Togruta male politician who served as the Grand Premier of the United Front following the Union Movement against the Galactic Empire after the conclusion of the Clone Wars. During the pan-galactic conflict between the Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems, Sin served as the Senior Administrator and Chief of Staff to Confederate Head of State Count Dooku, who was secretly the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus, which Sin was entrusted with knowing. However after Dooku was killed, Sin pledged his loyalty to Dooku's apprentice, Darth Midous, who formed the United Front and appointed himself its Grand Leader. Although content with his service to the Grand Leader, in the wake of Midous' death, Sin was presented with a chance to demonstrate his leadership as the next ruler of the United Front. However, his lack of charisma and ideological passion resulted in his defeat and death by the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

Hailing from the Togruta homeworld of Shili, Sin moved to Raxus Secundus to pursue a political career in the wake of the Separatist Crisis. At the peak of the crisis, Sin assisted Dooku in the administration and legitimacy of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, seeking to showcase his political expertise. After the Emergency Powers Act was passed in the Galactic Senate, Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine created the Grand Army of the Republic, which sparked the Clone Wars against the Confederacy. With the galaxy at war, Sin was promoted to serve as the Senior Administrator of Dooku and leader of the Executive Separatist Council, serving as one of the Count's closest advisors.

However towards the end of the conflict, the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, publicly known as Chancellor Palpatine, enacted the Sith Grand Plan, which meant betraying Dooku and having him killed during the Battle of Coruscant. With the Head of State dead, Sidious secretly took control of the Confederacy and sent the Executive Separatist Council to Mustafar to meet with his new apprentice, Darth Vader. Unbeknownst to the council members, Sidious orchestrated a trap for them when Vader arrived, sending his apprentice to eliminate them all. Having learned about the Sith's plan, Sin warned the Council about Sidious, but his concerns were disregarded and ignored. As the galaxy fell under Sidious' rule, Sin sought out Dooku's apprentice, Darth Midous, who was working to avenge his Sith Master.

In the years following the end of the Clone Wars, Midous publicly declared the formation of the United Front after entire star systems seceded from the Empire. As Sin served the Grand Leader as his administrator, he was granted the title of Grand Premier, acting as the leader of the United Front Council and second to Midous. One of the most respected figures in the Sith Empire, governors and military leaders heeded Sin's summons on behalf of Midous, while other officials strived to be worthy of his attention. However, after the death of Midous, Sin became the next Grand Leader and fought against the Rebel Alliance during its rebellion against the Union. Ultimately, the United Front was defeated and Sin was forced to sign the Peace Accords, becoming a figurehead for the rebellion. With the dissolvement of the Union, the government on Ord Cestus was restored and Sin was made its nominal governor under the protection of the Rebel Alliance. Enraged by his failure and humiliation, Sin violated the Peace Accords by leading a Union remnant from Ord Cestus, and in doing so, the Rebel Alliance launched a mission to have him assassinated.

## **Biography**

### **Early career**

Araak Sin was born on the Togruta homeworld of Shili in the Expansion Region, during the final years of the Galactic Republic. As an eager and capable politician during his time, Sin moved to the planet Raxus Secundus in the wake of the Separatist Crisis, seeking to grow his influence. He witnessed the former Jedi Count Dooku deliver the Raxus Address and recognized the corruption of the Republic, which he believed needed to be replaced. At the peak of the political crisis, Sin helped Dooku legitimize the Confederacy of Independent Systems and recruit more star systems to the Separatist cause. As Sin continued to demonstrate his loyalty to Dooku in order to protect his position, Dooku confided in him that his public persona was merely an alter ego, and in truth, he was Darth Tyranus, a Dark Lord of the Sith and the apprentice of Darth Sidious. With Dooku also explaining the Sith Grand Plan, Sin shared the Sith's vision for a strong central government, and therefore, he participated in the execution of Dooku's plan to replace the Republic with a Sith Empire. However, Dooku only gave Sin a general idea of their plans, not providing more details than necessary out of respect to his master.

### **Spark of the Clone Wars**

#### **Separatist Crisis**

As the Secessionist Movement ensued, Sin continued to manage the administration of the Confederacy, serving as an advisor to Dooku during his campaign against the Republic.

## **Personality and traits**

Araak Sin was a Togruta male who stood 1.96 meters tall. He had red skin with white and blue stripes, and blue eyes. His deep, booming voice would often call for order when government officials broke into pointless bickering. He often tolerated no nonsense and demanded the respect of his subordinates, and as for his political opponents, they were often intimidated by his appearance and nonchalant nature.

For most of his political career with the Confederacy of Independent Systems and United Front, Sin excelled in administration. Nevertheless, he never sought out the office of higher power, but merely wanted to be heard and respected. Following the death of Darth Midous, Grand Premier Sin was given a chance to advance in his political power, but lacked the charisma and ideological fervor needed to hold the failing United Front together. With the Rebel Alliance exploiting the weakness in Sin's leadership, he finally surrendered to the Rebel Alliance after losing a decisive battle. Sin was forced to sign the Peace Accords with the Rebel Alliance after the Union's defeat, formally ending the rebellion against the United Front.

Despite earning immunity with his cooperation, Sin was humiliated by his failures after the Grand Leader's death. To regain some sort of self-confidence, he led the remnants of the United Front, which directly violated the Peace Accords. As such, his pride and desperate behavior ultimately led to his death by the Rebel Alliance.
