Darth Tepe

Darth Tepe is the Dark Lord of the Sith and has been guessed to be one of the strongest since the New Sith Wars, but this is merely an assumption. He started his life as Tepes Dantes, a young Lorrdian man. He was taken in by the jedi when he was three and was granted an approval to learn from a fellow Lorrdian Jedi the ways of the Kinetic Communication, the way of speech by the Lorrdians. When he was first put up to show the masters himself and his quality as a padawan, the Lorrdian Knight was quite interested in him. After some talking between the two, they finally agreed to become Master and Apprentice.

Time As A Jedi
The Jedi life was boring during the slowly waning days of the Old Republic. Tepe could not find many missions with his master except for simple negotiations or investigations of crime waves. Nothing interesting for him and he started to show eagerness and more and more frustration twards Jedi ways. His master trained him as much as he could before he kind of hit a wall and he needed to concentrate on teaching patience to the young man. To teach Tepe patience, his master managed to get him a job arranging the Jedi Library, where the padawan learned much of the past and gained a fascination towards the Sith Empires of old. When his time had passed as arranger of the Library, his master took him away from civilization to test him. Unknown to the master, he had only made things worse, as Tepe found a creature using the Dark Side of the Force in many intriguing ways. This made the eager padawan try out some of the things the creature had done and grew quite fond of them. Slowly, he was corrupted and after arriving back to Coruscant, the boy was confronted by the council and his master who warned him from stepping to the Dark Side. Tepe did not know what to do, so he left the temple for a walk. However, his master followed in an attempt to confront him personally and even kill the padawan if he would have to. When the two met in the lower levels of Coruscant, the padawan senced the danger and swiftly atacked his master, throwing him off guard. The final point for the fall of Tepe's master was when the padawan gripped his master with the force and stabbed the man with the full of his lightsaber's lenght.

Seeking The Sith
In the start, Tepe was not a Sith, but a Dark Jedi. He trained in the Dark Jedi arts and excelled in them enought for his co-dark jedi to hint him of a secret Sith planet where he could find the last of the Sith Order. The Clone Wars had started by the time Tepe finally found the planet. During his quest, he was hunted by Jedi, Republic Guards and several Bounty Hunters. Especially his journey throught the Cloak of the Sith was very hard, as he did not know a hyperspace route throught the asteroid field. So, he had stolen a large but agile freighter, filled it up with necessities for living for about a month's journey, then made his way throught the astroid field. When he had gotten throught, he had to go around the three planets, seeking for life, which he found on Ruun, the lost planet of he Sith and the headquarters of the Sith Order. So he landed and had to prove himself to the Sith by killing a Sithspawn, which he accomplished after some major bruises to himself and the destruction of his lightsaber. His training as a Sith started while one of the time's greatest Sith managed to overthrow the whole Galaxy into chaos and destruction. From within the Cloak of the Sith, he watched the progress and cunningness of Darth Sidious. This was when he also took the name Darth Tepe, losing the "s" in his first name and leaving the surname behind himself.
