Dark Jedi of the Bogan
Beliefs and Hierarchy


“No peace, only chaos.
No knowledge, only instinct.
No serenity, only passion.
No life, only death.”




I) All life is suffering. Until you accept this fact, you will never understand anything. Accept the suffering your life will bring. Allow it to motivate you. Let it anger you.
The universe is chaos. Life is made of random actions that create who we are. Beings cannot be harmonious with one another because they are, in essence, animalistic creatures driven by instinct. Do not avoid this. Use chaos to further our aims and our strength, for chaos brings darkness to existence. It may be seen as a cruel irony of the Dark Jedi - that we must be somewhat ordered to create chaos, but this is only true by a strict definition. While it is true the Dark Jedi must be in some form organized, the core of our mission is not to create order or reform society, as Sith and Jedi have strived for for millenia, but to destroy the shackles society has created for itself.

II) If the Jedi have been plagued by one thing since their creation it has been indecisiveness. They fail to react. They only want to contemplate. When it is time to act the Jedi only want to mediate in their ivory towers. The Sith too have fallen prey to this idea - confined by their hierarchies, the Sith often find themselves incapable of swift action when necessary. A Dark Jedi does not wait. We demand you to act swiftly, not wait on guidance from the Force or any other. Failure to react is a failure to act. Do what you know is right.

III) The dogmatic Jedi would have you believe you can become content, serene, but we know this is a lie. We creatures are not above the need for emotion, for passion. Instead of repression, we only ask that you use your emotions to fuel your power, to guide you. However, a Dark Jedi must also recognize to be ruled completely by their passions is in itself a fallacy.

IV)
Death is all around us. It is a part of everything, as everything dies. Denying this is denying the meaning of ourselves and the truth to existence: there is no life. We are fleeting creatures in a universe as meaningless as an unused plow. Whatever we are, whatever our meaning, we imbue it; there is no cosmic plan. Either live well or die swift; do not contemplate the afterlife, for that gives way to stagnation. Instead, use your power to its fullest, for there is no reward waiting for those pure of heart. However, do not discard life for no reason - every game of dejariik has its pawns. Recognize the importance of using the lives of others to further your own goals, but do not cherish life. To kill is natural. A Dark Jedi must feel nothing when doing so.


Hierarchy



High Lord of the Bogan
The High Lord of the Bogan exists both above and beneath the High Lord Triumvirate. As the rightful leader of the Dark Jedi, the High Lord of the Bogan serves as an advisor to the Triumvirate, but also maintains veto power when necessary. The Bogan's responsibilities largely lie within maintaining and upholding the lore of the Dark Jedi, ever seeking to expand the organization's pool of knowledge, as well as conducting experiments and rituals to deepen his or her own understanding of the Dark Side of the Force. For these reasons, most of the day-to-day administrative duties fall of the High Lord Triumvirate.

The High Lord of the Bogan is the commanding leader of the faction.

High Lord

The High Lord Triumvirate serves as the ruling body of the Dark Jedi. These three masters of the Dark Jedi together handle all administrative, political and military matters of executive command, as well as embodying the apex of mastery of the Dark Side. The Triumvirate rarely communicate in person, as each High Lord is responsible for each of the three training facilities of the Dark Jedi. A fourth seat in these meetings is occupied by the High Lord of the Bogan.


Dark Masters
With a mastery of the Dark Side of the Force, supreme experience in the field and proven combat capabilities, the Dark Masters serve as the most powerful members of the organization save the four High Lords.

Dark Jedi, Initiated
Initiated Dark Jedi serve as the bulk of the organization. Their training complete, they are free to travel the galaxy of their own free will to expand their knowledge and understanding of the Dark Side of the Force, as well as independently undertake missions on behalf of the organisation.


Apprentice
The inexperienced, youthful recruits of the Dark Jedi, members of this rank have not yet completed their training in the Dark Side of the Force and require instruction before being initiated.
