## Biography

### Early Life

**Darth Salvis**

Darth Salvis grew up on the planet of Zakuul with his parents, and grandfather. They lived in exile, out of fear of getting hunted, which meant that he spent all day with his grandfather, as his parents were working.

It was with these days alone with his grandfather, that he began learning of his kind. His grandfather was a nostalgic man. The stories were always about the great species in general, the Kissai caste, or in some rare occasions, the sith kings like Adas or Nakgru. He also referred to it as a time where they were feared throughout the galaxy, and with their mighty army, could defeat entire planets in the span of an hour. Of course, Salvis did not believe all of this, thinking it was just stories. But it stuck with him.

His parents believed that the best way to remain hidden was to abandon the force and the sith traditions. This meant that he wasn’t taught how to fight with the force, and they didn’t teach him anything about the Sith. So when they once came home early, and heard the stories that was being told, they got furious. That night he heard arguing for hours, and he never heard another story his grandfather.

Over the years his grandfather had become more and more ill. At his death bed he called Salvis into his room. He had only one thing to say.

“Forget not about the sith. You are one of the last purebloods this world, and you have the potential to become one of the greatest sorcerers in this world. When you feel the time is right, you shall find a hidden room beneath my bed. Your mother and father are not aware of its existence, so do not show them it. So promise me one thing Salvis. You shall make the Sith great again.”

That was the last time he ever talked to him. He died that same night.

### Turning to the Dark Side

As he got older, his parents decided that he had to work, to help the family survive. He spent hours in the blazing heat harvesting corn, all while hiding his face under a big black hood to avoid being seen by any suspecting visitor. During these days he began discovering the force, as it helped him relieve himself of some of the workload. However, he was careful with it, and also hiding his face with a black hood, as to not let anyone discover what he really was.

On one particularly hard day of work, he got the sense that something was wrong. He decided to stop working and hurried home. As he came to the forest they were hiding in, he saw smoke coming up from the area where they lived. He ran home, and upon running into the clearing where their house was located, he saw it engulfed in flames. Quickly he ran into the home, ignoring the heat from the flames as he rushed into his grandfather’s old room. It was time. He tore the floor apart, revealing a small crypt like room under it.

The room contained only 2 things. A bookshelf and a set of armor, with a sword at its side. He figured this was related to all the stories he had been told, so he put the armor on, and put the sword on his side. He found a backpack and put the scrolls and books in there. He put on a hooded cape and ran out of the house, that was now almost completely gone. As he exited the house, the roof collapsed, just barely missing him.

On the house the pirates had painted their mark, so it only took a few days to locate them. He spent the nights reading through some of the books and strolls he had found, starting with the one about Sith Sword Combat. The night he found the pirates, he entered force rage.  Right there, around the bonfire they had made, he could see the Talisman his mom wore. But it wasn’t his mom who was wearing it. It was presumably one of the pirates’ wife. He quickly located the pirate who was awake and guarding the camp. As soon as he saw him, he ran towards him with his sword raised, and beheaded him on the spot. With the anger continuing take over all his emotions he ran over to the bonfire and killed all those around it. Not just the men, but the children and the women too. He mutilated the face of the person with his mother’s talisman, so she was no longer identifiable. He took the talisman and set the camp on fire, before running deeper into the forest. On his way he had found a cave to stay in for the night.

He made a small fire. As the fire began to spread its heat, he got to think straight without anger controlling him for the first time since he found his parents murdered. On that night he swore that he would make the Sith species great again. He owed his parents that.  He spent the next 3 months in that cave practicing and reading. But the progress was slow. He realized he needed a teacher. That morning he packed his things and went to the nearest city. The city had a big poster with propaganda for the Eternal Empire. He decided that they were the ones who could teach him how to make the Sith great again.
