He signed up at seventeen, thinking the Empire would save him.
Uniform too big, boots too clean, eyes full of Holonet lies, he thought he'd be marching in parades, bringing order to the stars. Instead, he learned how to stuff organs back into men still screaming, how to hold pressure on wounds that never stop bleeding, how to lie through his teeth to buy a dying trooper one last minute.
They call him "The Knellman". The one who shows up when things go bad, real bad. The one who moves like a ghost through smoke and screams. With nothing but a medkit his on back, blaster in his hand, and a vibroblade for when things get close.
They say if you see him, you're either lucky...
or already gone.
He's not a hero.
He's what the Empire made him.

Anakin's Fortress - Book II (temporary cover)
A Darth Vader Romance Kat I am no one. A shadow. Insignificant. Or at least, that's what I was taught to be. I could not have predicted that it was exactly this, the shell I lived inside, that would one day cause Darth Vader to pull me into his world, one of deceit, violence, and...love? Even Anakin couldn't have known that he would remove the scales off of my shell, little by little, until I was standing before the Empire with nothing to hide behind. But as I stood in the light, it is the appearance of my own shadow that was least expected. It turns out, the closer one gets to the spotlight, the bigger their shadow. --- Anakin There was a time when I believed in the Jedi. For a while, I believed in the Sith, too. If a woman brought down my faith in one, I suppose it is only right a woman would bring down the other, too. But, I'm better this time. Older. Experienced. Knowledgeable. I wouldn't give up everything for a woman again, right? Wrong. You see, with Padmé, I feared the danger she put herself in. I rarely encouraged her to fight harder, encouraged her use her talents and charisma. Sometimes I even disagreed with her ideals. And it is that mistake, among many, that I will not be making again. If Kitten wants to show her claws, her targets need only look behind her to see my shining eyes preparing to clean up the mess. It might be fun, were it not for the sheer size of her messes. TW/ CW: this is still a bit dark, though not on the same level as Vader's Fortress. He's still a shadow daddy, don't worry!

Apprentice of None
You were ten years old when you tried to kill Count Dooku. He laughed, called you talented, and took you in. Now you're thirteen, sarcastic, Force-sensitive, and catastrophically under-supervised-more of a chaos grenade than an apprentice. Trained in the ways of the dark side but lacking discipline, you're sent into the heart of the Clone Wars to prove your worth: spy, sabotage, manipulate. Your newest assignment? Infiltrate the Republic, starting with a clone sergeant named Slick. But what begins as a mission turns complicated when you meet the soldiers bred to be obedient-and discover they're far more human than anyone ever told you. The clones are supposed to be your enemies. Targets. Tools. But they start asking questions. They hesitate to hurt you. And some of them-especially the ones named Rex and Cody-begin treating you like you're not a weapon... but a kid. A reckless, dangerous, way-too-smart-for-your-own-good kid who maybe just needs a second chance. You weren't built for family. You were raised for war. But war does strange things. And somewhere between saber fights and sabotage, you might just accidentally get adopted.Complete

That little boy that I met on my first day in the temple isn't gone,as long as you continue to hold onto those feelings," "He is to me. I'm scared that those feelings are just illusions Soka. I don't want them to be that. I want them to be real, as real as I believe them to be." ~~~~~~~~~~ The Clone wars have begun, and when it comes to violence, no one knows that more than Jax. Once a highly skilled Padawan under Aayla Secura, he now lives his life as the infamous Sith Lord, "Darth Mordain".

Warped by the dark side, he made it his mission to bring down the Jedi order by any means necessary, even if it means fighting for the Separatists.

She'd been a padawan in the Clone Wars and had joined in the battle against the tyrannical Empire. But no matter how many fights she came back from, she was never prepared for what she'd lose. The Jedi had been slandered, their once loved name became mud beneath a blurrgs feet. She had fought battles civilians couldn't and was now branded a traitor. Her past haunted her. The Jedi haunted her. The Force haunted her. But no matter how much she ran, it always caught up. The Galactic Republic was long gone, the Jedi were dead, even the Empire had been defeated.
