Byzantine gold
It's the beginning of the 4th century AD. Italy, with around 14 million inhabitants, is the most wealthy, populous country in the world. It is also the center of the Roman-Byzantine Empire. At this time, the persecution of Christians became forbidden by law. Despite that, the tensions between Christians and pagans were far from over. At this time the Italian region 'Venetia et Histria', sometime referred to as 'the Venetian kingdom', grew in commercial importance. The prosperity of the Venetians and Histrians brought enormous divisions in the population. The love of money caused the wealthy Italians to drain their neighbours. The underclass, who didn't take it any longer, united in several fraternal gangs to target the rich. The murders and kidnappings increased. Only life in fortified cities was safe for the common people. During these days cargo fleets sailed into Aquileia. The ships contained envoys from Yemen, Funan and the Yamatai confederacy. In Aquileia not everyone was happy with the envoys that resided among them. The diplomats often engaged in criminal behaviour and they disregarded the boundaries of the community. When a Funan ambassador and his man violate two young girls, the civilians have enough. Assassination plots are made. And some people decide to emigrate...Concluída
Bloodied Nature (Star Wars x Male Sith OC)
"Oh believe me, I could snap my fingers and all of you would cease to exist," "Then tell me why we shouldn't gun you down where you stand? Why should we let you live?" "You seek to reclaim Mandalore do you not? You seek to restore the warrior ways of old?" "And what do you know of our ways? You are no Mandalorian," "True. But even a cold blooded killer like me, understands the desire for freedom, intact chains that strangle you. Chains...that I can break for you..." ~~~~ The Galactic Republic. An entity that is so...useless. Plagued with Corruption, it is weak in the eyes of the most feared Sith Lord of them all. Darth Xynarus. Born as Thespian Palpatine, the oldest child of the Palpatine bloodline and elder brother to Darth Sidious, Thespian is a man who understands the laws of pain, manipulation, and darkness. Both him and Sheev were trained by Darth Plagueis The Wise, and whilst they both excelled in the Dark Side, Plagueis clearly picked Thespian as the favourite. Teaching him how to remain forever youthful along with the unnatural ability of Midichlorian Manipulation, Plagueis saw far more potential in Xynarus, that he did Sidious. Potential...that was not unfounded. Years later, Xynarus has been travelling the Galaxy under the guise of the well-known and respected, high ranking member of the Kuat Shipyards, seeming to be the wise, strategic, professional, lead ship designer that has invented and built ships such as the Venator Class Star Destroyer, and the well known, Lucrehulk Battleship. However, under the mask of Head Ship designer, Thespian, the unknown elder brother of Sheev Palpatine, prefers to be known as Lord Xynarus, and is a major player in the galactic-wide chess game that his younger sibling is playing, and whilst he acts like he unaware of his sibling's endgame... He is anything but... It is time, for the Sith'ari prophecy...to come to fruition... ~~~~ Nothing belongs to me alert from my own images. But as always, hope you enjoy :)

In hiding, he watched as the Empire rose, as the galaxy fell into darkness, as the few remaining Jedi, scattered and alone, fought a losing battle. He had failed them all.
