Kethren Trynyty

"Reliance on anyone other than one's self is weak.
A strong person only needs himself to survive."
--  Kethren Trynyty

• Kethren Trynyty was born in the slums of lower level Courscant. As a child, he was weak and in poor health and in the time spent outside, was used as a punching bag for the older, larger children. Most of his time was devoted to following his mother, whom he loved deeply, and watching her work. Kethren's father had been killed in a factory accident before he was born and his mother made their living by scamming and stealing her way around the upper levels. As he grew older and stronger, Kethren followed in her footsteps, hanging around various schoolyards and conning kids out of their credits. His major trick was something that he had happened upon quite by accident- he could read others' surface thoughts. He would call out to passing children when he sensed their moods and convince them that he could tell their fortune, making up things after their surface thoughts ran out.
• Shortly before his 10th birthday, Kethren was wandering around the upper levels, searching for more pigeons for his game when he meandered behind the Imperial palace. He couldn't read and the warning signs meant nothing to him. Just before reaching one of the back palace windows he felt a hand fall on his shoulder and jumped nearly a meter off the ground.
• The guards took him inside, ostensibly to receive a thorough thrashing from the guard captain on duty. Several seconds before Kethren was due to receive the beating of his life, orders came over the guard's headset to take him else where; to Darth Vader. The Dark Lord had sensed not only Kethren's latent Force talent, but also his fear of the guards, anger at being taken prisoner, and ingrained hatred toward the rich and middle class.
  His mother was killed by riots around their home several weeks later, never knowing what had happened to her son.
• Vader trained Kethren until the Sith Lord's death during the Battle of Endor. Kethren did fall in love once to one of the palace servants. Kethren's first son, Evan, was born when he was 17. Even though Evan didn't have any of the Force ability that his father had wanted for him, Kethren loved his son and did his best where raising the boy was concerned. He was becoming more and more volatile as time went on, but his lover knew that she couldn't take her son from him and refused to leave without him. Two years later, she gave birth to twins, Wesley and Adrianne. Neither was Force sensitive. They were largely ignored by their father who preferred instead to focus more on his training. Two years later, on the eve of the Battle of Endor, his last child was born. Kethren was with Vader and the Emperor on the uncompleted Death Star when he felt Siona's Force presence pop into existence. Two days before what would later become the Empire's greatest defeat, Kethren left for Courscant to claim his daughter.
• He couldn't find her. In a rage, Kethren attacked his lover's Caramassi friend who had taken the other three children, nearly killing her and taking Evan with him. His lover was tracked down and destroyed and his daughter had disappeared. With the vacuum of power following the Emperor and Vader's deaths, Kethren chose to lay low instead of battling it out for control. He met Jadrek Lemyn, a rather eccentric and neurotic, fantastically rich businessman and offered his services as bodyguard. It soon became quite apparent that Kethren was running Jadrek, though.
• Seven years later, he managed to locate his daughter through the Force and reclaimed her, vowing to train her to become more powerful than himself and gain back a position for the family with the Empire. After several years of vigorous training, he reappeared before the Emperor, presenting his daughter as a Sith Mistress. Palpatine was not happy. True, the girl was powerful, but during the darkest days of the Empire, Kethren had hidden himself away from any sort of confrontation with its detractors. His daughter again disappeared (this time of her own free will) and Kethren and the object of most of his hatred, Domino de Devastator, locked themselves in combat that would eventually lead to a long-lasting battle of wills between the two. Kethren vowed revenge on both de Devastator and the Empire and barely managed to escape Imperial Center with his life, returning only years later to reclaim his daughter.
• She was again lost to the Rebels leaving Kethren with no allegiances to anyone but Jadrek and Evan. He controls his own Super Star Destroyer, Froinlavian Night, as well as most of Jadrek's finances and business affairs. Several planets on the outer rim are also under his partial control. His power is no match to that of de Devastator or the Emperor and he refuses to confront either of them directly. With de Devastator responsible for his daughter’s ‘death,’ Kethren was thrown over the edge, working throughout the night and often flying into uncontrollable rages that only Evan could calm. In an effort to once again regain his daughter, Kethren has formed an alliance with Admiral Rigel Bismarck, the closest he will come to the Imperial military.
• Kethren is what most people would describe as dark. He has a dark complexion, black medium-length hair and gray eyes. He's about average height and well-built. He is usually seen in loose fitting black or dark red clothing and occasionally dark green.
• Even as a child, Kethren was quite serious and relatively quiet. He is prone to verbal outbursts (usually angry), but mostly keeps to himself. He has never been as powerful in the Force as his allies or enemies and is usually quite jealous of both of them. Don't let the attitude fool you, though. Underneath his sometimes petulant exterior, he is a calculating, manipulative genius.
• All Kethren wants is to see his only Force-sensitive child become greater than himself and overthrow the Emperor. He would love to destroy Domino de Devastator himself, but barring that, he just wants to see the Deominian Lord destroyed.
