Competition: Hand of the King

Finished
Hand of the King

Within the fictional setting of Plagueis, the Clan is a fiefdom where the individual Houses pledge allegiance to the Dread Lord (Consul). The leader of House Ajunta Pall, the Left Wing of Dread (Quaestor) is served by a right hand man... the Aedile. Aedile?! What?! Yeah, that doesn't quite fit with the thematic of Plagueis, does it?

Game of Thrones fans will be familiar with the term "Hand of the King" as a position of leadership as the King's right hand man. Ajunta Pall is in need of a similar fictional title for it's Aedile position that fits within the theme of Plagueis' naming conventions. Also remember that it can fit within the thematic of Ajunta Pall as well.

Please submit a fictional name/title for the position of Aedile in Ajunta Pall that fits with all described above, and a small blurb (no more than 200 words, preferably) about how and why it fits into Plagueis and/or Ajunta Pall.

Ajunta Pall's leader, The Left Wing of Dread (Quaestor), must have a fitting servant, his Claw of Trepidation.
The leaders of Plagueis are named after one common word: Dread (i.e.; fear, terror, anxiety, etc.), therefore, they must have a warrior and leader to carry out the ultimate mission, to bring death from those who bring fear. The Claw of Trepidation is fear, as the wings of dread send enemies of Plagueis into a panic for their lives, the claws of fear and terror tear apart the weak for their masters, the wings that bring fear.

Trepidation is defined as apprehension or fear of future events, fitting in perfectly with both Plagueis and Ajunta Pall's name preference towards fear related names. Since house leaders in this clan are named after wings, its fitting to name a house second in command as a fly creatures greatest offensive weapon, their talon or claw. This is the title of a true right hand man or a lords general.

TITLE: Sword of Pall

DESCRIPTION: The double-bladed sword of the exiled Dark Jedi Ajunta Pall was more than a weapon - it was a part of his persona. Throughout his campaigns during the Hundred-Year Darkness, Pall imbued the sword with Dark Side energy as he himself became corrupted. Pall would eventually be buried with his sword, and the creator of the Rule of Two, Darth Revan, would be tasked in his early years with retrieving it from the Sith tombs on Korriban. Thus, a link is born between Ajunta Pall’s sword, one of Darth Revan’s earliest shows of power, and Darth Plagueis’ ultimate mastery of the Rule of Two, Darth Revan’s greatest lasting legacy in Sith history. Ration declares this coincidence, but the Dark Side works in mysterious ways.

As the Sword of Pall, House Ajunta Pall’s Aedile is the often overlooked and silent edge to the Quaestor’s more public image. The Left Wing of Dread may decree, but it is the Sword that realizes. Further, while Quaestors, like Ajunta Pall, may disappear, the Sword persists and often rises to even greater feats.
