Can I belong?
The door opened and he stepped into the room, he looked about him with an awe. This place, this Sith Empire, it felt as though it called him. He felt as though he could belong here. He smiled and started into the room walking slowly as he looked about him. If it had not been for the Lady Dara Shadowtide, who knew if he would have walked through the door. He walked to a table and sat down and watched, feeling the dark energies flow about him. Have I found a place that will accept me?

Malicious grew tired and leaned back in his chair, he pulled the hood of his black cloak further over his eyes. Even though he had not yet been acknowledged he felt as though he was in the right place. Placing his black boots up on the chair across from him, he decided to wait there as long as it took, at any cost affordable, he would join TSE. "My life is yet to be found, for I believe it exits within the Empire." He said, hoping someone would hear him and take notice. If it was not the right time to approch him, he understood. My life has no purpose yet, therefor I have all the time in the world.

Athena watched the man as he waited. She liked to see what all a new commer could handle.
" I am Sith Knight Athena. Why do you wish to join within our Empire? "

Malicious looked up and saw the woman who idenitified herself as Athena. "First of all, I thank you for your time Lady Athena, as for your question, I wish to join the Empire for I believe that I can truely belong here. I know very little in the ways of the force but I am tuned to it. I feel it. And I believe that with the right training I could be a valuable asset to the Empire. This place simply seemed to beckon me. Of course, much of this came with the help of Lady Shadowtide. If I believed that the Jedi were the stronger minded, I would go to the academy, but they are feeble minded and weak, not truely unlocking the power of the force. In order to be one with the force, you must acknowledge all sides. This includes love, hate, trust, and envy to list but a few. But I have already said to much for one question... Please continue" he said bowing his head with respect.

Darth Malicious hoped he had not said to much, though usaully a quite character he had been known to ramble or shoot his mouth off. But still, if he had said too much, and the Lady Athena chooses to walk away, he would stay. As far as he was concerned the only way out of that place was to be carried out. He took his feet off the chair once used for a stool and arose, still keeping his head bowed in respect to the Knight of the Empire.

Athena contemplated his words, he spoke true and his words wise. But she didnt like the fact he again brought up her Master and Sister....
" Tell me all you know of Mistress Shadowtide, and dont try to lie to me. I am and forever will be in tune with the force. "
Athena thought to herself, And my sister...

"My Lady Athena, I meant no harm. I was a wandering rouge, uncertain where his life was to be lead. I then meet Lady Shadowtide, who convinced me that I could belong somewhere, something I once thought impossable."
OOC translation, I had email contact with her on a couple of different occasions and she convinced me that I could fit this roleplay into my schedule. I only wished to convey that I would not be here in the roleplay community if it were not for her. If I am not allowed to do this, I appologize.

Zeta watches Athena question the new recruit from afar. He too wants to question the new recruit, but for the moment, he is all about observing Malicious, and learning from the other members of the Empire.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by The Lady Athena on 12-11-2002 01:25 PM:
OOC its all good. Just Athena is deathly loyal to her Master who also is her Sister.
Athena felt the entrace of Zeta. She looked at the man before her.
" Tell me why, or better yet what all you have to offer this empire? "
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Darth Malicious on 12-11-2002 09:03 PM:
"I give all I have and can to the Empire, as well as anything I earn. I give my respect, my dedication, my will, my skills that I have and will have, and if the time comes when I must, I give my life. But my life is already giving to the Empire..... If they shall have it." Malicious said still showing little of himself. He simply stayed beneath his cloak. He was well aware there was another in the room. Another watching him. If he wished to come and join the conversation, Malicious felt he would. And he would be welcome. But He was not going to speak until spoken too.

Athena nodded so far he was doing well. Just still there was something. Athena looked over to her newest of Apprentice's Zeta....
" Zeta, I am sure you have a few questions in line for this man do you not? "
Athena had her own questions but they were of a larger scale, and she wanted to see how this man fared with Zeta's questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Darth Malicious on 12-15-2002 11:53 AM:
After the Sith Knight prompted this Zeta to question him, Malicious turned toward the presance he had felt earlier and bowed, and waited. He felt as though he was ready for any question he might be asked.

Malicious broke his long silence speaking to the Sith Knight,"My Lady Athena, I am not afraid to answer more than one question at once, if you wish to continue your questioning while Zeta ponders his questions, please by all means do so, and when he asks his questions I shall address him too. Those of the Empire have my ut-most respect and deserve to be addressed at their will."

*OOC I'll step in and question while Zeta's away, that is if the Lady will defer to me.
IC*
A large, brooding prescence stepped from the shadows, as if he were born from its inky void.
"Utmost respect, he says? Our questions answered at will he says? Why he doesn't sound like a Sith he sounds like a well-mannered Jedi, who's just a little confused." The man stepped forward, closer to the new recruit, his reddish, black dreadlocks, were tied sharply behind his head. His black soulless eyes, glowed with an eerie crimson tone. It was Invictus, Apprentice of Sith Master Drako, Champion of the Heart fo Darkness, Sith Disciple of The Sith Empire.
"Sith are not just to be respected new-comer, we are to be feared, feared with the same tenacity that one fears their own end, that one fears what they can not comprehend, for we are the embodiement of Death and the Harbringers of Doom." Slowly Talus circled this Sith Hopeful, he was amused at all new-comers to the Empire, they were as his toys to be tested, inspected and judged based on their abilities and potential.
"We oft do not even let those foolish enough to wander into our halls, speak a word before we remove them from this plain of exsistence, but some have found you worthy of making your case, so I have come to test you. " Talus' voice seemed to roar throughout the chamber, though he spoke softly.
"What makes you think that you are worthy to study our ancient and sacred ways?" The dark-skinned collossus demanded.
"And do not tell me that you are loyal and you will obey to the death, that is expected of all who join our sect, our slaves are even loyal to the Empire and serve it with their dying breath, I want to know what makes you special."

"Respect and Fear come hand in hand, I figured those of the empire would know this. I am well aquanted(sp) with fear, I use fear to drive myself to the edge. You ask what makes me worthy. As I have said before I believe in order to truely be one with with force you must accept all sides of the force, including Fear, Envy, Hatred, Love, and Pain. What makes me worthy is that I have already imbraced these. I wish to learn to feed of them, rather than just nibble as do those lesser beings." Malicious didn't back down. This newcomer's presence was quite looming, but it did not effect Malicious. He smiled reveaviling two fangs, almost like that of a vampire. But that was all that could be seen from the darkness of his hood.

Posted by Talus Invictus on 01-12-2003 09:13 PM:
You believe your foolsih display of courage will win you favors... Invitus' voice did not ring out through the halls but rather poured into the brain of the main before him. Another gift of the Heart, the ability to communicate through the force.
His eyes flashed crimson for a moment, then he snorted.
"Indulgence in all aspects of the force, an interesting and origional concept for once, for that you are allowed to live," His voice did not betray any hint of sarcasm as it would once have before the change. Talus may have played with the minds and abused the bodies of the new recruits but he'd never dare kill one, Invictus however was not as forgiving.
"But your origionality now brings up a new question, one I expected answered with the same spark of intelligence you just displayed." Invictus continued to circle the recruit, slowly allowing his force signature to pour out of him, displaying his awesome new power, the power neccessary to be the Champion of the Heart of Darkness.
"If you are to indulge in all aspects of the force, would you not set yourself up to give in to the comforting power of the Light? Tell me, would you be willing to sacrafice all aspects of the Light, to just begin to taste, the infinite power that the Darkside has to offer? Could you resist ever using the force for anything other than the completion of your goals, to be of one mind, set on a single purpose? And if so, what if the purpose set forth to you by the Empire is not the purpose you had desired, for that is what would be expected of you, self-denial for the cause."
Invictus stopped suddenly before the man and outstretched his hand. A force push blew the man's hood from his face and Talus' hand gripped the man's jaw so that he could look him directly in his eyes, his own black soulless pools began to glow with a hint of crimson as he awaited the man's answer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted by Darth Malicious on 01-13-2003 09:26 PM:
As the Sith pushed Malicious' hood back with an outstretched hand and gripped Malicious by the jaw, he could feel the incredible strength the man possessed as he now looked him his eyes. But the Nocturna didn't even flinch. Malicious simply stared back with his own blood red eyes. Then he felt it tug at his soul, the fear. Yes, he feared this man before him. But he liked fear. It coursed through his body making him feel stronger, and the grip, which seconds ago had felt like the pressure of a collapsing star now lessened upon his face. He continued to grin as he answered with confidence, "Light, dark, it seems to me to be misunderstood. The way I see it is there is no light side, nor dark, but yet several sides as I have mention already. Hate, Fear, you've heard me say it. The difference between the Sith and the Jedi is simple. The Jedi are little children watching from their playground, and the Sith are the adults playing the game. They understand so little, while the Sith grasp the knowledge and power fully. I do pursue my own personal goal, yes, but to achieve that goal, to gain the power I seek, I will pay whatever price I must. And what better way to obtain power than to do the bidding of those who feed off it? My only other goals would be that of the Empire."

"No side to the force? That sounds like the word of a Fallen Jedi, not the words of a man who wishes to become a Dark Lord of the Sith. No newcomer, there are sides very different and distinct sides, each with their strengths, each with their weaknesses. You will come to understand this if trained and if denied I may make sure that you learn there are sides to the force myself."
Invictus paused and turned his back, the young recruit would not be so foolish as to strike, the Sith Warrior would kill him before he could get to him.
"I grow tired of questionning this one, fair well recruit, pray you are accepted into the ranks, for you won't be allowed to leave the halls with your life."
