Biography: Darth Minious was hatched as Alol Enex in 3, 975 BBY in his Xargessian clan, deep in the core of Corellia. Five years after he was born, a Jedi attack was led on Corellia, nearly completely wiping out the Xargressian species, only Alol, the man who will become Darth Dude, and two Xargressian mates.
Alol was then raised by two human parents on the surface, taking their last name Enex, and given the name Alol by his father. When Alol was fifteen however, his parents were killed by the Sith Lady Zavier, ironically during her time as a Jedi Knight she had been a part of the attack on the Xargressian hives. Forced to live on the streets, Alol wandered throughout the streets, pick-pocketing to survive.
However, one fateful day, he was caught by a Jedi Master, Gratius Ordon, who sensed his potential, and took him to the Corellian Temple to be trained. Four years later, after intense training, and important missions, Alol was promoted to Jedi Knight, extremely quickly, due to the increased need for Knights in the Jedi Civil War.
Alol was then tasked with searching for more Force Sensitives before they could be corrupted by the Sith Triumverate, Sion, Kreia and Nihilus. Stumbling upon an apparently barren world that was teeming with Force life, Alol crashed, discovering the Sith Lady Zavier, She revealed to him that Gratius Ordon had killed his parents after they insulted him.
Teeming with rage, Alol took the name Darth Minious, and returned to Corellia, killing Gratius and declaring himself a Sith Lord. He returned to Kroprulu, the planet upon which Zavier lived, and told her of the news. She praised him, and took him under her wing to receive Sith training. At the age of twenty nine, Darth Minious was sent on his final mission, to bring more initiates to the temple.
Deciding to return to Corellia, Darth Minious managed to attract several Force Sensitives, bitter that they had been deemed "too old" to begin training at the Temple. Amongst them, however, is Darth Minious' old hatch-mate, the man who would later become Darth Dude.
Returning to Kroprulu, Darth Minious presented the initiates to Darth Zavier, who granted him the name Darth Minious, as a true represenation of his rank, not merely a false title that he held in hope to never be known as Alol Enex again.
Due to his long life-span, Darth Minious lived through many different Sith Empress' reigns, as the Sith Order grew into a Sith Empire, the formation of the Sith Council and the Sith Orders, and the vision that, only under an Emperor not of Zavian blood, could they bring the Galaxy completely under Sith submission.
In 208 BBY however, Darth Minious lost his hatch-mate Darth Dude. On a mission to Byss to defeat the Coruscanti Jedi, who had begun to delve into the mystery of who the Kroprulan Sith were. An ambush was set, and upon arrival, the pair were attacked, and Darth Minious was forced to retreat, leaving Darth Dude behind. Darth Dude became bitter, growing his own Empire to one day combat the Kroprulan Sith Empire.
Finally, in 39 ABY, on a standard mission to Corellia, of all places, Darth Minious encountered a group of zealous Dark Jedi. They claimed to come from an Empire led by Darth Dude, and Darth Minious was shocked, believing Darth Dude to have died. The leader of the group, Darth, revealed that Darth Dude had corrupted the Jedi on Byss, growing more powerful through the years.
Darth also revealed that it had been Zavier, not Ordon, who had killed his parents, a true vision of the events bringing Darth Minious to the realization. Unable to continue, he returned to Kroprulu, where reports began to filter through of skirmishes on the Empire's borders with unknown hostiles.
Surrendering his Apprentice to the training of a fellow Council member Darth Zero, Darth Minious gave up his Sith name, and flew to Hoth to meditate. As Alol Enex, he cried for the first time in millenia at the pain he felt.
After ten years, the dark manifestation that was Darth Minious grew strong enough within Alol to launch an attack on the alter-ego, slaying him and assuming true command of the body, pushing any chance of Enex's return away permantly. Returning to Kroprulu, Minious discovered the war with Darth Dude in full flight, and assumed command of legions of troops to counter this sudden threat.
When Darth Dude launched an attack on Kroprulu, Darth Minious led ground forces through Fyrol Valley, defeating them effectively. However, the attack was merely a diversion, allowing Dude to defeat the Empress Chick, and assume command of Kroprulu.
The Council then retreated to Xagobah, where a new Empress, Saber was elected. Darth Minious then launched a counter-attack, retaking Kroprulu early in 50 ABY.
After twenty long years of fighting, the war began to draw to a close, and Darth Minious assumed a more guardian type role, allowing the Grand Admiral and High Generals, Darths Acrimonus and Vexen respectively, to lead the war front.
After the birth of Empress Saber's son - a future Emperor not of Zavian blood - an uproar was led throughout the Empire, a new hope that perhaps they would finally become unchallenged masters of the Galaxy.
After news of Dude's final defeat on Reldar Prime, Darth Minious retired from active duty, allowing Acrimonus to assume command of the Sith Military. Darth Minious became naught but a shadow for many years, leading many to believe he had abandoned the Empire.
However, in 86 ABY, he led an attack of Acrimonus' planning, directly on the Jedi at Bakura, in an attempt to assasinate the aging Grand Master Abba. Encountering heavy resistance, he slew Lyn Korak before being killed himself by Xander Vos, a Jedi Council Member and strong in the Force. The invasion was not without success: Abba was slain, and the Temple razed to the ground.
Supreme Commander Alor
very nice.
now about that Xargressian part. I have never heard of them, but from sources, they live for 10,000 years? Like ten Yodas (rough estimate).
(weird about Xander Vos killing Minious...)
Darth Acheron
Sources? You've read Mission to Corellia? Or does it mention that in Life of Empress Saber?
Originally, there was to be one Sith Council over the four thousand years of the Empire. However, some didn't like this and changed their characters, but I'd already begun to develope Minious, who was born in 3,975 BBY and was alive during the DDC. So, I invented a species, also retconning Dude at the same time.
Yoda could probably have lived to about 1,500, just the stresses in his life took their toll.
(Well, since Vos is my other character, who became my main after I left, I wanted to off my other one. )
Supreme Commander Alor
"necessity is the mother of invention"
okay. making more sense. You were stubborn and did not budge, even in the face of scorn from others. so you invented a new species. makes much more sense now.
Darth Acheron
Was that meant to be insulting? Why do I get the feeling you have a grudge against me?
Zero had his character as a reincarnating human born in 3,000 BBY, and I had mine as a member of a long living species born in 3, 975 BBY. I wasn't stubborn, more inventive.
Supreme Commander Alor
it was not meant as an insult and if you took it that way, then apologies. i do not hold you to a grudge. i was typing very quickly and let my first thoughts get on the keyboard. i am also trying to finish an english project (now at ten pages, not done. only supposed to be 3 pages)
(we probably shouldn't go down that path again.)

I don't see how I can not take that as an insult... No one scorned me... You called me stubborn and not budging, kinda insulting...
Oh, and you've kind of screwed up for your report for English, or you've got a long night of editting ahead of you.
Supreme Commander Alor
i meant that no one else was going with the eternal sith council thing, but you still kept your character alive for that long. nothing insulting meant. just an insight to what was going on at the time of your creation of a new species.
english is my best subject...
Darth Acheron
Ok, I think we just crossed our wires...
Same here, but you've still got a lot of work ahead of you editting it down.
Supreme Commander Alor
me, edit? hahahaha. never! i think the teacher will let it go. but i just hope we don't have to presentit in front of the class, that would be a doosy. ten pages single spaced, read in the front of class? whoooooo...
Darth Acheron
I believe Socrates once wrote a long letter to his friend, and added at the bottom, "Apologies, I didn't have time to make it shorter" The length of something doesn't make it good, and can usually be the result of rambling. If you shortened it to the limit your teacher set, only leaving in the best of the best, I assure you you would be marked far better.
Also, once you get to Uni, they actually give you a very harsh penalty for going more than 10% over the limit, so its better to start now.
What year are you in out of interest?
Supreme Commander Alor
Sophmore...
Well, the only problem with shortening it, is that the good parts are most of the story. I usually don't ramble on, but keep to the plot line. but it jst keeps on getting bigger and bigger.
Darth Acheron
Which is... Remember, I'm not in America.
Oh, its a story. Well, that's even more important, because one of the great skills in writing is conveying a lot, in a little. If your teacher wants 3 pages, then perhaps 3 pages is what your teacher wants.
Supreme Commander Alor
sophmore= 2nd year of highschool
I believe that three was the minimum. I talked with her (teacher) today, and she was overjoyed that someone took it serious.
((who said i live in America? how did you find that out?))
Darth Acheron
Ok, so 8th Grade?
Because Sophmore is only used in America, and the FIRST Robotics league, you said, was in America, and you mentioned going to a school in an American state.
Supreme Commander Alor
8th grade? thats four years behind me. i am in tenth grade over here.
how does the school system work over there.
Here it goes:
High School
Ninth-Freshman-9
Tenth-Sophmore-10
Eleventh-Junior-11
Twelveth-Senior-12 (Graduate this year- hopefully)
Darth Acheron
Exactly the same, but we don't have random names like that for High School, and High School starts with 7th Grade, and Primary (Elementary for you) ends with 6th. And we call them Years, not Grades, because Year 6 is your 6th Year of proper school.
Supreme Prophet Praxeum
Very nice profile...
And the layout of it is nice, whoever made it must be a genius
Darth Acheron
So isn't 8th grade only two behind you Marix, not four?
Yes, I did kinda nab it from Vexen - I mean you.
Supreme Prophet Praxeum
Nabbing that thing from anyone is nabbing if from me.
I very, very glad you have come back. The Empire has missed Minious, as his former student has as well.
Darth Acheron
Thanks.

I told you not to steal...Bad Minious...BAD.
Anyway good profile. You certanly where missed.
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
I just graduated to junior..
Xander Vos
Not exactly relevant to this thread...
Supreme Commander Alor
2 years, 4 years. What's the difference. I can't count...
Darth Thrax
Very nice profile, Minious. Oh and welcome back.
Darth Acheron
Thanks. However, due to the end of my use for Minious, my new character, Darth Acheron's profile shall be created soon.
