One hundred years have passed since the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, the Sith Empire now just a distant memory in the Galactic Republic. People go about their lives, unaware of the threat which lies in wait for them on the fringes of the galaxy.
The Sith are rising again under a visionary new ruler, Darth Necriem. In a vicious sweep, Necriem's forces have taken control of large areas of wild space, and the Imperial fleet is storming towards Coruscant. Caught unawares, the Republic is in disarray.
Now is the time to strike.
Join the Sith forces as they conquer every planet in their way to the galactic core, crushing any who stand in their way. The Sith are reborn, and now the galaxy will be theirs.

The rules:
No swearing, unless you use curse words from Star Wars (although a respectable Sith Lord does not need to indulge in such outbursts).
No sex.
No trolling.
Stay committed.
No betrayal. I know it's the way of the Sith, but it's a) no fun for the people being overthrown and b) likely to incur the wrath of Lord Necriem himself.
And absolutely NO god-modding (no-one likes a show-off).

Here's the set-up for your character:

Class: (Marauder, Juggernaut, Inquisitor etc.)

Plus anything extra which might be relevant.

So here's the heirachy:
Emperor.
Regent.
Two Sith Lords and one general.
The rest of the Sith are arranged into three orders:

The Warriors:
Warrior:
Juggernaut:
Marauder:

The Inquisitorium:
Inquisitor:
Assassin:
Alchemist:

The Army
Trooper:
Guard:
Scientist:


For each group, there will be one Sith Lord (a general for the army) who commands the other two. Just put it into the description if you want the rank, it will be on a first-come-first-served basis. Also, if you have any questions about what the rank's specialities are, just PM me.

Finally, please double-check your cannon through wookieepedia:

Get creative, and soon the Jedi will be on their knees!

To give you all a better idea of what to do, I'll go first:

Name: Darth Necriem
Species: Gen'dai
Gender: Male
Age: Somewhere in the 400's, not even he knows for certain.
Position: Emperor of the Sith.
Appearance: Necriem rarely removes his battle armour now; it has as good as become a part of him. His mask is angular, with thin eyepieces, giving him a fearsome visage. He has black and silver-grey armour covering his body, and a shredded black cape hangs from his shoulders. His cuirass still bears the emblem of Revan's Sith Empire, for who he fought as a marauder almost three hundred years ago.
Weapons: Sharp blades are attached to Necriem's forearms, though he prefers the use of his bare hands and unparalleled mastery of the dark side in battle.
Still, Necriem is a potent enemy with a lightsaber. His weapon is double the length of a regular lightsaber, with a distinctive kink in the middle giving it an appearance almost like that of a 'Z', with a crimson blade at one end and an concealable knifeblade at the other to surprise his enemies.
History: A young Necriem first enlisted in Revan's sith Empire on Dromuund Kaas, and has fought for the Sith ever since. He achieved a rank of respect under Darth Malak, and obtained the rank of Sith Lord serving Darth Sion. Since the fall of the Sith Triumvirate, Necriem has remained on the very edge of the galaxy, building his power and an army of thousands totally loyal to his rule, ready to unleash them on his greatest enemy: the Jedi.
As a Gen'dai, Necriem has a natural capacity to withstand almost any attack, making him virtually immortal. This has allowed him to build an empire where the focus of its members lies solely on the destruction of the Jedi and the fall of the Republic, effectively eliminating the inherent infighting that has plagued the Sith for millennia.

(I know Necriem does seem god-modded- and kind of is to be honest- but the idea is that the Sith know they will not be able to overthrow him, and are afraid of his wrath, so instead focus on destroying the Republic and not each other.)

He wears cortosis armour and his boots house retractable blades.

History: Born into a family following the dark side, Hostiums life was always in torment. His parents knew he had force sensitivity but wanted to keep it secret so that they could use him themselves. His father and mother both beat him, until in a fit of rage he struck down his father and used the force to crush his mothers mind effectively making her brain dead. He ran away and when he turned 18 joined the Sith army. Aged 22, he showed exemplary force sensitivity, which included killing 6 Sith troopers, who had angered him, instantly. Lord Necriem found out about this and took Hostium to be his apprentice. 13 years later and Hostiums power is second to none, only outmatched by Necriem. Hostium will follow Necriem, even unto death, for he thanks him for being able to harness his awe-inspiring power.

Equipment: Dual Phase Paired Lightsabers

I want to see you choke on your lies,
Swallow up your greed,
Suffer all alone in your misery.

Reserving General. :P


DNX
Laments of passion
Obstructed by fear.
Under guises of jovial chatter;
Incredulous hopes
Steadily feasting away-
Eating away at my heart.

Name: Mire Den – Darth Mire
Species: Zabrak/Iridonian
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Position: Sith Lord
Appearance: (Picture included at bottom)
Weapons: Energy whips, using similar technology to a lightsaber her whips use concentrated energy to form a beam of light only in a flexible stream rather than a static one.
History (keep it fairly brief, just the best parts): At a young age Mire developed a high resistance to pain, higher than that of an average Zabrak, which was force induced. Her force sensitivity also caused her to develop her vestigial horns before they were due, regardless of this she received her rite of passage along with her ceremonial tattoos as her ‘symptoms’ were seen as a sign. At the age of 13, her village was stormed by the Empire but in a rage she killed numerous stormtroopers with the force but this was to no major effect. She was seized and taken into the empire to be trained as an apprentice. Once there she excelled through the ranks with extraordinary speed quickly reaching the title of Sith lord which she has kept for roughly three years now.
Other: In battle she relies heavily on her speed and power in hand to hand combat rather than her force or saber skills, although they are vast.
