The Black Guard is back! (posted by Goatham)
The Black Guard, the Defenders of Sif
Darkness has forever clouded the history of Phare, but none so more than the history of the ruthless band of warriors known only as the Black Guard. Planets have been rendered incapacitated by the presence of the Black Guard alone. This elite group of Dark Jedi are the chosen few among many, they are the Darkness, they are eternal; they are the Elite.
The Black Guard are feared by everyone, and noone. Those who know of the Guard fear their name, those who do not fear do not know. The Guard is but a shadow; known by all, seen by none.
The Black Guard are the Elite Champions of Clan Naga Sadow. Three Champions for three Orders, three Champions for three Houses, one Guard for one Clan. They are the Black Guard, they are the Dark Side.
The Black Guard is formed of the Clan's three Champions; one Champion is drawn from each of the Clan's Houses: The Black Prophet of Marka Ragnos, the Black Sentinel of Primus Goluud and the Black Archon of Ludo Kressh.
The Black Guard live only to serve the Infernal Spirit of Lord Naga Sadow, it is his will alone that they obey.
History
Lord Naga Sadow formed the Black Guard millennia ago; they were established as the members of his private Household, the chosen few tutored in the ancient ways of the Sith. The elder Guardsmen were the Sith Lord's Procurators of Justice, the elite band charged with maintaining Order throughout Phare.
Over the centuries the Black Guard disappeared, making way for the younger Houses, their dwindling numbers fading away into the Shadows. The Guard were eventually forgotten, lost in the eternity of time. But the Guard never truly left, they merely retreated into hiding, maintaining their traditions in secrecy from the other Houses.
When Lord Tron Sadow returned to unite the feuding Households the Black Guard returned. The ancient Order were welcomed into the newly formed Clan of Naga Sadow, the remaining three practitioners of the ancient Sith ways being appointed as the young Sith Heir's private Bodyguard, and as the Champions of the three Houses.
The Black Prophet of Marka Ragnos, Champion of the Krath
The supreme practitioner of the Dark Arts, the Black Prophet is the reigning champion of the Krath Order within Clan Naga Sadow. The Black Prophet is trained in the ancient ways of alchemy and manipulation. The Prophet has always been the Scholar of the Guard; he is the Diplomat, the Scientist and the Sorcerer.
The Black Sentinel of Primus Goluud, Champion of the Obelisk
The champion of the Obelisk Order is also the chief Bodyguard of the Consul. The Black Sentinel is the strongest, faster and toughest of the Clan's fighters. The Sentinels of the past have upheld a life of strict disciplined training and fighting; each has been an example of the perfect lightsaber duellist.
The Black Archon of Ludo Kressh, Champion of the Sith
The elite pilot of Ludo Kressh and the champion of the Sith, the Black Archon is the most ruthless of the Guardsmen. The Order of the Sith has always been known as the most undisciplined of the three, the Black Archon is a perfect example. Whereas the Sentinel maintains a strict lifestyle of intensive training and the Prophet is the scholar of the three, the Archon is a merciless killer with no consideration for life.
Induction
Entry within the Black Guard is an almost impossible process. One does not join the Black Guard, the Black Guard joins you. There is no recruitment, there is no formal request - there is only the will of the Guard.
In order to be invited into the Black Guard one must defeat the reigning Champion in battle. A one-on-one duel is required to prove oneself to the Guard, only then will entry be considered.
To become one of the three, you must oust one of the three. There are only three, and there shall be only three. Thus says the Code of the Black Guard.
Expulsion
Removal from within the Black Guard is simple. Do not as the others, and you shall not remain.
The Black Guard adhere to the Code of the Guard; those who fail to adhere to the Code are not welcome within it. The Black Guard are the Champions of Clan Naga Sadow, if you are not a champion, then you are not a Guardsman.
Notice from the GM: (from SWL Goatham)
ALL people not assigned to a Battleteam will be automatically transfered to the Rogues next week, so this means if you're not in one but want to stay in the Clan...JOIN ONE NOW.
New Envoys: (more new from our CON Goat)
Envoy for Naga Sadow Krath Pontifex Trevarus Caerick
Envoy for Ludo Kressh Sith Warrior Malik
Envoy for Marka Ragnos Ghost Angel
Envoy for Primus Goluud None
In light of the limited applications that I recieved I have not been able to appoint an Envoy for Primus Goluud, for which I am quite disappointed. Primus Goluud is our smallest House, so is the House most in need of an Envoy, as it rapidly needs to attain some new members to increase its numbers.
In light of this, I will, for the time being, ask that the team of Envoys handle the task of recruitment for Primus Goluud among themselves as is, if this means the Clan Envoy handling the task, all three doing a little bit of the job or something I do not mind, I shall leave it up to the Envoys to decide their course of action for the moment.
I shall also consider having our Envoy for Primus Goluud not a member of Primus Goluud, for that would not be too much of an issue, and there are those who used to have Obelisk clones or whom used to be Obelisk who could handle the job adequately - and regardless of this, the tests Obelisk Apprentices take are no different to those of Sith or Krath Apprentices, so the task would not require any special Obeliskian skills.
In conclusion, my congratulations to the new Envoys, I look forward to seeing some new members as a result of your efforts, and I shall be briefing you on some further Envoy related integration with the Master Student Program when that comes into effect later this week.
Master/Student Program:
SWL Goatham sent out detailed information on this over the e-groups- the bottom line is if your DJK & above and not an AED or QUA you are expected to help your house & clan by taking on an apprentice.

HLK Information: (as passed to me from our CON, SWL Goatham)
HEADQUARTERS OF CLAN NAGA SADOW
Planet Ullyr - Ludo Kressh Home Base Kressh Fortress
The third planet in the Phare system, Ullyr, is perhaps the most hospitable of all the planets, at least from a geographical viewpoint. Ullyr is strongly suited to support life, 45% of the surface is covered in water, the atmosphere is breathable, the climate is temperate (ranging from -5° to 25°C), gravity is standard at 1.2 and one day has a fairly standard rotational cycle of 29 hours. The planets downfall is its terrain, mostly uneven and covered in trees the planet is not yet suited for mass populations, and the resources are far from expendable, given time though Ullyr has the potential to become a formidable fortress world, being one of the largest of the planets in the Phare system at 9,000km in diameter. However as an Imperial world Ullyr is not yet very industrialized, the government is not truly Imperial, mostly being a feudal system between the native wookie tribesmen, also the Starport is only a standard installation and does not provide the defensive abilities of the Imperial Starports such as those circling Sif and Loki.
Regardless of this, the low profile this provides the planet with makes it a suitable choice for the home of one of the Clans houses, more specifically those of Ludo Kressh, the Sith of the Clan. Being the space faring troops of the Clan the lack of a decent Starport also proves little of a problem, perhaps being more of a benefit as it hides their activities more. The fortress installation of Ludo Kressh is perhaps the most expensive of any of the Clans installations, along with being the newest. Buried below the surface of a volcanic lake the installation is a large 100m tall by 60m wide fortress, the walls formed of ten foot of impenetrable durasteel, the surrounding mountain range covered in an array of shields, turbolasers, ion cannons, warhead launchers, sensors, and jamming systems. Protruding even further than the 100m height of the underwater base are three additional towers that head up another 50m from the first level of the installation, providing enhanced sensor and communication systems, additional hanger space and a meeting hall that is seated on top of the lake, open to the air. It is the added defense of the Sith pilots which also makes Ullyrs moon, Baldyr, the perfect location for one of the Clans additional bases, its private prison complex.
Platform Obsidian
Obsidian is the secondary installation for Ludo Kressh, an orbital space-station that provides both extended communication systems for the entire Clan, and an auxiliary base at which the Clans ships can be stored, maintained and repaired. The base is staffed by members of Ludo Kressh, though some of the Saraii devotees aid in the daily upkeep of the base. The platform is kept in orbit of the planets moon, Baldyr, thus providing it with additional security by limiting its direct connection to Ullyr, and hence its connection to the pilots of Naga Sadow. Though primarily a Sith installation, Obsidian provides support for the entire Clan, usually acting as the hanger bay for many of the Clans shuttles and other vehicles. Obsidians limited construction bays and manufacturing apparatus also provides it with the ability to upgrade and enhance the Clans ships.
