I have been ordered to start keeping a holocron as part of my training in the dark side, admittedly I had been planning to, but I kept avoiding the hassle.
My new master, Darth Aequitas, is the High Prophet of the Church of the Dark Side and is one of the most accomplished wielders of the Force in the Empire. He was given accelerated training by the Emperor himself and went straight from lowly apprentice to deputy Order Head, an event never before recorded in the history of the Empire. He is also skilled with a lightsaber though he is more of a diplomat than a warrior and prefers to settle disputed with words, not weapons.
The conviction I felt when I first arrived on Kuat has faded, I am unsure if this is my true path. To go so quickly from thorn in the Empire's side to the thorn of its enemies is no small change. I don't know what the Dragon is, yet I trust its judgement.
Hopefully it will be gone soon and then the truth will be known. _________________

Crozeus and I are to go on a mission together. Drop two Sith apprentices in the middle of Tatooine, nothing could possibly go wrong there. _________________

My training with Master Aequitas goes well. With every passing day, I become more confident, both with a lightsaber and the Force, though admittedly I already have a degree of skill in both from my Jedi days. Perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that my confidence with the dark side is growing?
Breaking free of the light is harder than I expected but I am happy to say my conviction has returned, independent of the Dragon's influence, and that yes, it is working. With Master Aequitas's help I will overcome it. And the Dragon. _________________

I have started to ponder on many things.
Firstly, my Order choice for when I do complete my training, years from now though it may be. The Royal Guard, definitely not, they are little more than glorified bodyguards and doormen. The Inquisitorius intrigues and repulses me equally due to its nature. The Church seems to fit the qualities I would be looking for but I don't want anyone to think I am merely joining to follow in the footsteps of my master. And the Military attracts me strangely, a sort of deep, instinctive feeling, primal, pulsing through my veins, a need for war and conflict but doesn't tick any of my boxes.
It's all rather strange.
Secondly, I have started to ponder on my past. I think it's high time I learned the truth of myself. Wamomeru, a name given by another species, Glathn Long, a random conjuration, the Dragon Knight, a taint of my light side past. It is time to find out who I really am and that brings my to my third pondering.
My selection for Dark Patron. I am inclined towards Darth Nihilus and I hope later to contact his Force spirit to try and gain his favour in helping discover my past. _________________

I have spoken with Lord Nihilus. He beckoned me return in a week, he claimed he would have the answers I sought.
I think. _________________

I have just had an amazing experience with Lord Nihilus. He gave me a number of runes to help me discover my heritage. They spell out a number of strange words with no commonality. But I trust that they will show me the way.
He also removed the Dragon from me. The Dragon then took the form of a cloaked skeleton with a scythe. It informed me that it was the Force signature of my father. It revealed that it was the Force signature of my father, attached to me to stop me growing into the dark side too fast. Now that I have lost its counsel, I have become stronger in the Force. It seems my father was a Sith. I also believe that Dragon's skeletal form, it may hold clues to my father's identity.
The scythe that the Dragon was wielding reminded me of the lightscythe I discovered on Tatooine. Perhaps it has some connection with the Dragon? Strange, the Dragon is so named and wields a weapons similar to another that I discovered in the Krayt Graveyard. Things are coming full circle for me. _________________

And I say to thee Oh Great One,
Do not presume to speak of me
And do not presume to speak of knowing me.
You know me not
And therefore do not attempt to speak of me truthfully and knowingly.
You may try
And fail
To attempt to understand the complexity that is I.
But you will fail.
I reach a robed hand into the sky and catch a glowing insect
And say;
"You are eternally free because there is no limitation that can be placed upon thee."

My arsenal has expanded slightly after some trips to Naboo, Malastare, Coyn and Arkania, granting me an atlatl, a cesta, a b'hedda, a d'skar, a sat'skar, a coyn'skar and an Arkanian baton. I have also acquired, from the armoury, a vibrosword, a shockstaff and a bryar pistol.
I have been experimenting, with the runes. I have managed to spell out many words, though the only ones of significance as of yet are DARTH and COUNT. This would indicate that whomever the runes speak of is both of noble stock and a Sith. This knowledge is dear to me, and I hope it to be true, to have noble blood in my veins. _________________

The runes finally speak.
COUNT DOOKU
ORMAN TAGGE
DARTH GRIM
With these names and their significance (as tokens of Darth Nihilus), I approached my master in his capacity as High Historian. He cross-referenced the information I had.
There was a match.
The former Vice-Admiral of the Navy, Darth Grim a.k.a. Nathaniel Tagge. It seems I am named after him. In first name at least. I know not whether I am a Tagge or a Dooku in surname. He was killed in action when I was but 3. _________________

I update this holocron too infrequently. Then again, still in training as I am, my excitements are few and far between.
My current one is a manuscript describing uncommon Force powers. Auxillary to my training, I have started teaching myself to manipulate air, animals and my own body with the Force. One day, I hope to master these arts and pass them on to my own apprentice. _________________

Today rebels bombed the Emperor's entourage. They have been apprehended and swiftly executed. That such things could not have been foreseen by the Prophets, routed by the Inquisitors or defended by the Military has greatly disillusioned me with all three Orders. I have no idea which one I will pick now. _________________

A new Imperial Order has been created. The Order of Sith Mages is dedicated to exploring the unknown reaches of the galaxy, defending it from paranormal/supernatural threats and evaluating the resources of the galaxy.
I know now that is the Order for me. _________________

I have been elected for knighting by Master Aequitas. This is indeed an honour and I fully intend to serve the Empire as Darth Serratus.
My first act as a true Sith will be to go on a mission with Darth Celestial, a Colonel in the Army who has kindly agreed to help me retrieve some belongings from Coruscant, including the prosthetic arm of Arden Lyn, which I intend to present to the Church. _________________

I have been knighted by Dark Lord Prognie and henceforth shall be known as Darth Serratus. Celestial and I are ready to go on the mission to Coruscant.
I have elected to surrender Arden Lyn's prosthetic arm to the Church.
That will leave me, after the mission, with a rancor-tooth lightsaber, a self-contained harpoon gun and my old krayt-bone and Tusken armours. I am as of yet unsure as of what to do with the concussion missile warhead. _________________

Much has happened.
First and foremost, I have been involved in a terrible incident which has left me changed. A set of Jensaari armour is bonded with my skin. I am tough, durable and, amusingly enough, slightly lightsaber proof. But my pain sensors are inflamed, my speed, agility and flexibility are all hindered. Only my face was spared.
When I presented the prosthetic arm of Arden Lyn to Darth Crozeus, he offered me my choice of any artifact in the Onderon Chapter. I eventually settled on the Dark Blade of Ajunta Pall. I question his motives though I am not going to let simple suspicions get in the way of such a powerful dark side weapon being in my possession. _________________

A few months ago I was offered and accepted the position of High Mage of the new Order of Sith Mages, dedicated to exploring the as of yet undiscovered and unexplored areas of the galaxy. The Grand Mage is my former master Lord Aequitas.
I have also become Moff of Tatooine on the Empire's might Moff Council, and henceforth shall represent Tatooine not just to the general Council but also on the Judicial and Education Committees. _________________

So long it's been since I updated this holocron of mine. I guess I hadn't counted on the stresses of my new position.
Since ascending to the position of High Mage, I was an important player in the Battle of Aeron, leading the Imperial forces and killing in excess of 100 enemy men by myself, though failing to take down Fahr, the enemy commander.
I am now free of that accursed armour. It was a long journey that led me to this point, but I will enclose the details of my renewal at the end of the Holocron.
Recently, the Grand Mage and I saw fit to give the Mages a more isolated fallout and thus, designed the new Mage base, Dark Ring Station. I made a few innovations which I will also add to the end of the Holocron.
ATTACHED FILES
+ RESTOREFILE
In order to restore myself to human form, I needed to do two things.
First, I used an experimental weapon combining a fire blade and a lightsaber, with hydrogen as the fuel, to sear the armour away from my skin.
Then, I was lowered into a tank of a special form of bacta known as bac'ata co'arp. The ingredients, in addition to the bacta were "DNA of [my] own species, the Dust of Muunlite*, the blood of the dark side**, mercury, a boiled and filtered blend of razor grass, Eol Sha lichen, Jaddyyk moss and the leaves of the Jo tree, a piece of skin from the tail of a katarn that has just partaken of the fruit of the syren tree, powdered damind crystal and a considerable amount of energy, to be donated or forcefully taken from another being."
*The Dust of Muunlite is a mysterious substance taken from the body of a Sith Necromancer. As the last theoretical Sith Necromancer is currently in the custody of the Inquisitorius and will no doubt be executed for treason, the only sources of the Dust of Muunlite are myself and Prophet Crozeus, who, I believe, keeps his on Fondor. I have split my supplies in two, four fifths rest in the Krayt Graveyard Research and Development Facility for testing. The other one fifth is buried in a pod on Vjun below the ruins of Chateau Malreaux.
**The blood of the dark side, so I am told, is a remnant from the creation of the universe. It is scarcely found anywhere in the universe but I was lucky enough to have some in my hand at the time. The Dark Blade of Ajunta Pall is made from an alloy of the blood of the dark side and durasteel. I have collected all the shavings from when I sharpened the Blade and hid them on a pod hidden in the ruins of the Wayland Order's base on Mandalore, in the A'den Jungle.
+ WELLFILE
The most important of my innovations for Dark Ring Station was the gravity well device. Three orbs are located exactly half-way between Mandalore-Taris, Taris-Dathomir and Dathomir-Mandalore. They are designed to reach out to near by gravities with their own and form a link. These links create tension which the orbs convert into energy that allows them to all reach out to Dark Ring Station and hold it in place.
The other innovation is my ringthrusters, a series of large rockets attached to the outside of Dark Ring Station. They can all face one direction and disable the gravity well, allowing it to become a mobile space station. Alternatively, they can all face the curve of the Station and create artificial gravity using centrifugal force, in the event of a gravity failure.
