Validus

Hetaeriae Validus was formed after the 'de-clanning' of 25 ABY by Grand Master Czulvang Lah, formed mainly from the remnants of the old House Oriens Obscurum in Clan Arcona it has always been a strong fixture within the Structure of the Brotherhood.

At the point of its inception, the Dark Jedi of Validus boarded their newly named M/CRV Greed and headed out into the unknown to find a home for themselves. After traveling through the various territories of the Emperor's Hammer the Jedi found themselves in the Pirath System in the outer reaches of the Beta Sector.

Having found a suitable system and been incidentally low on fuel at the time, the Dark Jedi decided to explore the system for a while, in the hopes of finding fuel for the Corvette. With the members of Validus having various levels of security access throughout the fleet, they quickly managed to tap into the secure data in the fleet System Manual.

While scanning through the System Manual the eager Dark Jedi Knight Keth found a possible base of operations for his new family, the small Sanctuary Moon of Lien in orbit of the Imperial colony world Hiran, mentioning this possibility only to his Dux a Sith Warrior by the name of Blade, with the approval of his Dux the young Jedi boarded his personal fighter and headed to the planets surface.

It took Keth only a few hours on the moon to be convinced that it would be the perfect base of operations for Validus, it turned out that this planet was not frequented by the locals of the system and even the Imperial Military forces tended to give the moon as wide a berth as possible, this was in no small part due to the belief that the Sorcerers of Darkness still inhabited the forest moon.

During his brief exploratory trip on Lien, Keth found the famed ruins of the Cathedral of Darkness, which was once the base of operations for a group of exiled Dark Jedi. It didn't take long for the skilled Dark Jedi of Validus to refit the Cathedral and the surrounding area to suit their own needs.

After taking a month to settle in to their new base of operations, the Dark Jedi of Validus have set up an extensive Piracy operation in the System, using their Jedi powers and advanced ships to make short work of any System Defense Force patrols they encounter.
