**Darth Revulsion**, formerly known as **Caedus Alveare**, later revealed to be **Caedus Trinity** and known simply as the **Emperor’s Regent** was a human male Dark Lord of the Sith and the son of the Sith Emperor Darth Deceptious. He was tasked with overseeing the administrative functions of the Empire.

Born to Imperial loyalist Merra Alveare on Balmorra, Caedus grew up without a father figure and was unsure of his heritage. Due to his mother’s loyalty to the Empire and her living in one of the Imperial outposts, she would regularly aid the military’s morale, even offering medical support as her son watched the intricate process. Throughout his life, Caedus felt unidentifiable anger and had the desire to dispose of whatever it was that was angering him. His mother, noticing the rage, no longer allowed him to go outside or come with her to the outpost, as she tried to secretly prevent him from succumbing to his dark lineage. Their lives were relatively peaceful until Caedus began to question how he and his mother were related. Almost eight years after his birth, Balmorra came under a full-scale Republic invasion. Caught in the uncontrolled chaos, an aspiring Sith Lord had arrived with reinforcements from the Imperial capital and, after finding all the Imperial troops stationed on the world were dead, began a counter-attack to secure the Imperial world. During the battle, the Sith Lord sensed an intense, yet ominously familiar fury within the ruined settlement and investigated, where he came to discover the young Caedus using the Force to restrain and choke numerous Republic soldiers, as well as the unconscious body of his mother, and several dead soldiers. After the final soldiers had died from suffocation, Caedus dropped them to the ground, as well as passed out himself from inadvertently overexerting himself. The Sith Lord had taken the boy, as well as his mother, however, later told Caedus that his mother had perished in the aftermath. After awakening to his power, the Sith Lord had temporarily taken Caedus to Kaas City where he was mentored in the basics of the Sith Empire as well as the Force, particularly the dark side, then revealing that Caedus was special and had the potential to become something far greater than he could have ever dreamed of. However, he also gave Caedus a choice, study at the Sith academy and become a Sith, or die, as those who could manipulate the Force and did not serve the Empire were to be killed as potential threats. He accepted, and was transferred to the academy to begin his training as an acolyte.

Caedus’ training progressed quickly, viewed by the overseers as a natural prodigy. He also grew to dislike all the other acolytes, and greatly disposed of a Togruta boy who believe himself superior to the rest, and who constantly attempted to sabotage others' trials. Caedus focused on weeding out the competition and eventually, indulging in his first legitimate murder of another acolyte. He had covered up his tracks by feeding the corpse to the K’lor’slugs. It eventually came down to the Togruta and him, however, it would end quickly as the Togruta made a snide comment about his the young Caedus was practically now an orphan, with his mother dead and unknowing of his father’s identity. Snapping at the Togruta, Caedus incapacitated the acolyte with his training saber, killing him off with a deadly blast of Force lightning, and in front of the overseer no less.

It wasn’t long after that the Dark Council, the most powerful Sith Lords in the galaxy, were involved in the incident of the “unauthorized murder” of another acolyte on academy grounds. At the head of the Dark Councilor’s thrones, was the Sith Emperor himself, as well as the Sith Lord who originally found Caedus, standing directly beside the Emperor. The Emperor had entirely dismissed the prospect of the acolyte’s death and permitted the Sith Lord to speak, who revealed the true reason he was so invested in Caedus, as well as the identity of his true father: the Emperor himself. They had identified Caedus’ existence long ago, shortly after he began experiencing bursts of anger, his power had been awakening, allowing the Emperor to sense his presence.

Darth Deceptious personally oversaw the training of his son for the next decade, allowing him to fully develop his powers into one worthy of his bloodline, and by the time his training was complete, he was rechristened as **Darth Revulsion**, the Regent of the Emperor and heir to the Sith legacy. In addition, his final trial had come, to strike down the source of that unidentifiable anger: his own mother. Believing her to be dead, Revulsion was told the truth. His mother had survived and was kept prisoner for this moment. There, Merra was brought before him, as she was pleading for Caedus to listen to reason, however, the Sith Lord Darth Revulsion stated that Caedus was long gone, having accepted his place as one of the Lords of the Sith. Saddened by the loss of her son, her final words were cursing her former lover, who used her for this very moment. The Emperor then ordered Revulsion to strike her down, to which he unhesitatingly complied, expressing joy in finally being able to rid himself of his final chain, and impaled his former mother with his lightsaber.

Since then, Darth Revulsion dedicated his life to serving his father, enforcing his rule, and silencing anyone who dares question it. For the most part, he operated in secrecy and would take out key targets against the Emperor, alongside the devastation of Republic outposts set up in Imperial territory. As the Emperor’s Regent, Revulsion’s life was prolonged almost indefinitely by the alchemic secrets of the Emperor to he could serve for “the everlasting eternity”. He had been vested with absolute political authority, second only to the Emperor himself.

As of recent, Revulsion is the overseer and the main beneficiary of **Project: Tenebris**, a top-secret Imperial military project involving tapping into the dark side of the Force to enhance a soldier’s abilities.

## Personality

> The Jedi are mere slaves to themselves. They undo their order with every iteration of their pathetic guidelines. A life of a Jedi is a life of ignorance, and feeble hopes that the Galaxy will just fix itself as if by magic. A Sith realises the truth, and seeks to correct it the only way this system will accept - via force.

Darth Revulsion is a cold and ruthless yet, isolated individual. It doesn’t mean he couldn’t befriend people━in fact, he has a small clique on Nar Shaddaa he plays Sabaak with━he’s just very hard to get close to, a trait shared with his father. He had a preference to mentally outplay opponents before striking, playing into their insecurities to weaken them before going in with his weapon or Force abilities to finish the task. He also preferred to be on his lonesome, as he believes he can better concentrate on increasing his abilities if he’s left to himself, though he will still go out and play cards and gamble with his previously mentioned clique. Due to his upbringing, he is rather wary of people that he is unfamiliar with, and is very likely to be distrustful toward any being who shows any sign of allegiance to anything not affiliated with the Empire. He is devoted to the end to defend the Empire and its ruler━whilst some consider this loyalty to be a crippling weakness, he however views it as his greatest strength. Differing from most of his younger siblings, Revulsion adopted the subtly cunning, ruthless, and manipulative side of his father as a result of his self-imposed isolation from groups as he viewed them as essential tools to further both his and the Empire’s goals. Revulsion possessed a vast pool of political and military knowledge thanks to his upbringing, being able to politically maintain the Empire on his father’s behalf. In his youth, and still so upon becoming a Sith, Darth Revulsion felt a deep hatred for his weak and cowardly mother, so much that he unhesitatingly killed her as soon as his father ordered him to do so, something that his father, in turn, did to not just his mother but his entire lineage before him.

The Lord-Regent rarely took on an Apprentice, though not due to him being unavailable in his duties. No, the simple reason as to why he refused to tutor any aspiring Sith was due to his standards and principles. He loathed the idea of someone he deemed lesser to himself interrupting important affairs and drawing him away from his duties as the Regent. Those who were fortunate enough to have Revulsion as a tutor were far more unlucky than those who did not - Revulsion holds high standards for his apprentices, often killing them if they have proven to fail him. He thinks lowly of those that he does take under his wing, and will ensure that his apprentices know just how little worth they hold to him. There are, thus far, 2 exceptions: Templar Cultros and the Architect of the Void. Revulsion has taught them to not only survive, but to ascend to a rank higher than Apprentice. Due to his general distaste of apprentices and high standards, he often does not attend the Sith Trials, only playing an important role in the Final Trial and any judicial affairs that may seem to arise from them.

Despite Revulsion's more calm and collected manner, he has a far more brutal side. This side of him has only come out once - when he was young, at the Sith Academy. Revulsion will seemingly enter a blind rage, drawing heavily from the depths of the Dark Side to guide his actions from there on out. Dubbed simply "Mortem", Revulsion will swing into a blinded fury at his opponents, stopping at nothing until they are dead, and taking great amounts of pleasure in the killings. Those who have seen this side of the Regent claimed some kind of red-purple aura engulfed his limbs and blade, whilst his Sith eyes glistened a deep gold. "Mortem"'s power is equal to that of Revulsion's more calm self, though it may seem more destructive due to him being alot more reckless than he normally would be. "Mortem" can very quickly drain the Lord-Regent, which can lead to him leeching the blood of other individuals to keep himself afloat. Once "Mortem" leaves, Revulsion will become sluggish and tired for a few hours, though this can be mitigated with some time in bacta. It is said that "Mortem" will often taunt his victims, laughing at their misery as he continues to cut them to pieces, and cackles at those who weep because of his actions. Oddly, Revulsion does not seem to recall anything that "Mortem" may do, only knowing of his brutality via eye-witness recounts.

## Appearance

> When I saw the Lord-Regent without the helmet, I was almost in shock. It was as though I was staring at a phantom - his silver hair and porcelain skin made me question if the man I had sworn my allegience to was really a corporeal being.

Revulsion wears traditional and more modernized Sith robes, alongside cortosis wrist cuffs and a personalized pilot’s helmet to mask his identity. Not many have seen him without his helmet, allowing him to easily conduct undercover operations. On his belt are a medkit and survivalist kit in case he is stranded on a foreign planet with no present means of returning. His robes hide an emergency breathing apparatus, one he can attach to his helmet if the need calls for it.

Whenever Revulsion was outside of his armor, he appeared as a tall individual with porcelain white skin, white hair, and grayish silver eyes. He normally wore military-like officer attire.
