Name: Ardel Queluran / Darth Paradus (Believed to be derived from the word ‘Paradox,’ referring to something that seems absurd and/or contradictory but can in turn have underlying wisdom and truth.)
Gender: Male
Race: Unknown (Speculation: Darth Paradus possibly has the blood of the ancient race of the Sith flowing through his veins, as was the case many millennia ago when interbreeding occurred among Dark Jedi and Sith to produce hybrids with immense force potency. What this might say of his age, if true, is undetermined.)
Age: Unknown (Speculation: Though his age is uncertain, Darth Paradus seems to have obtained a vast wealth of knowledge over his lifetime. He also shows occasional accounts of remembering matters from the ancient past, i.e. notable wars of history as far back as the Great Hyperspace War and possibly beyond, with uncanny detail. Such matters might mean that he has simply spent an excruciating amount of time undertaking research on such matters, or there is the more terrifying theory that he has walked among the planets even thousands of years ago, his life fueled by the dark side of the force.)
Height: 212 cm
Weight: 86.4 kg
Appearance: A towering figure, nearly seven feet of imposing muscle, Darth Paradus can command an intimidating presence about him from his height alone. Beyond that, he seems to have a naturally powerful presence and carries himself with a confident stride. He commonly will clad himself in the modest yet arresting robes of the Sith and Dark Jedi, veiling himself in material darkness with the concealing hood frequently pulled up.
Under the hood of his robes, his face can be found hidden behind a mask of simple construction. Looking nothing more than a simple slab of durasteel, primarily black with some secondary gray linings and impressions. At eye level there are twin slits to see through, thin and filled with glass that is tinted a heavy red, making it seem like the glowing eyes of a demon are hidden in the shadows cast by the robe’s hood when caught in the right light. However, when one is close enough to him, they can see past the tint and find that what little skin borders the slits’ edges is black and that the eyes are an acidic golden hue.
Birth place: Unknown (Speculation: If some of the more outlandish theories relating to his blood connection with the original Sith race are true, then he would most likely have been born upon one of the planets of the ancient Sith empire. The most probable points of origin are Korriban or Ziost.)
Faction: Unknown (Speculation: Paradus carries the title of Darth at the beginning of his name, as well as the position of Sith Lord in his own eyes. However, he doesn’t often function with other organizations claiming to be Sith by name alone. He also rarely meddles in the galaxy’s affairs, remaining oftentimes in the shadows. His true motives and form of allegiance are currently his alone to know.)
Rank: Sith Lord
History: There is little concrete knowledge about the man known as Darth Paradus, or his hazy past. He tends to keep the history of his life to himself and only dips into the uppermost waters on very few occasions, when he believes it is necessary at the time to reveal such matters of the past.
What little is known is that he has walked among the galaxy and its many planets for a great number of years, though the exact count is unknown. He has in that time trained extensively in lightsaber combat and the ways of the force, primarily the Dark Side, and has gained such power and insight concerning them that he must have been doing so from a young age.
Taking on the mantle of a Sith Lord, though the information of exactly where and when he could have obtained this title seem to have been lost to the ages, he paces through the shadows of the galaxy with the patience of one who has a great many years yet left to wait, thought what he might be waiting for is unknown. He doesn’t often get involved in matters of the galaxy and when he does, he rarely steps fully into the open, manipulating behind the scenes. There are no Sith Organizations that he works for, though he has occasionally revealed himself to some to provide guidance and minor aid to suit his interests. Whatever plans or motives that might be in his head and drive him are in reserve and have not been initiated yet.
Rarely taking on an apprentice, he has done so on several rare occasions in his long, if incalculable, life. However, in the tradition of Sith teachings, each challenged him for dominance and each fell before his lightsaber with ease, proving too eager for power and, at the same time, too foolish and unknowledgeable to realize their current limitations.
