Sied would not be able to get to the planet immediately, but upon hearing of the situation, her military would arrive soon enough. Unfortunately, due to the world, she knew better then to bring other Witch Commanders. Rather designated positions of authority to various Nightsisters. And then, landing their troops at a right angle with the Empire's. Thousands and thousands of the Dathomir Servant droid force in line, most of whom were carrying either Z-6 Blaster Cannons, or a very sizable pack of Thermal Detonators, that they could only carry due to their considerable strength. There were a few armed with more simple blaster rifles, and most had pikes with them to use in groups, but due to their lower skill level, it felt the cannons and detonators would be more sufficient. Due to their strength, they began sending the Detonators far into the field to attack the dread army. Meanwhile the Nightsisters moved about their army making sure everything was in order, while others prepared in groups for sprays of energy blasts with their bows, The NightTroop had a group here additionally, prepared to take on the Dread Army if they got into closer range. Sied herself, though as much as she hated it, resorted to an energy bow from this distance, firing at them from a considerable distance aiming for the faces. As an extra measure, she had brought Master Droids into the mix of all this. Making for an excellent defense against the Dread Army if they got closer due to their extreme skill and speed with weapons and physical ability, and and their weapons being excellently suited to combat jedi, sith, or in this case, Undead with an open face. Until they got closer however, where they would use their Electro-staffs, the Master Droids would use blaster rifles to shoot at them from afar. All the while aiding the organization of the droid army.

Pyktis stepped off his shuttle outside of the Sith Citadel on Ziost. He hated being here. No force, just raw physical Strength is all he had. He however was glad that he honed in on his Combat skills so when a situation like this showed itself he'd be ready. He watched the Dread Army arrive in waves of soldiers. The Imperial Military was already quick on the offense attacking them. Pyktis grabbed his lightsaber from his belt and activated it. He charged in quickly engaging a Dread soldier. Something he's never seen before. He quickly slashed at their armor but to no prevail. He realized it was phrik. He took a step back as the Dread soldier collided his sword with Pyktis's lightsaber. Pyktis noticed his skull of a face was uncovered. Pyktis disengaged the lock and spun around and did an upward slash to the face cutting the skull in half. The Dread soldier dropped to the ground dead. Pyktis's eyes grew wide realizing their face was a weakness. Pyktis regained focus running at another and grabbed him around the waist and lifting him up and body slammed him down. Pyktis then took his lightsaber and stabbed it into the face of the Dread soldier. Pyktis then was kneed in the face and fell into his back. The pain juttered in his face. Oh that hurt thought Pyktis. Pyktis felt a kick to his ribs. Grunting Pyktis rolled over into his stomach. Then Pyktis felt another kick to his ribs knocking him over. The 2 Dread Soldiers both raised their swords to kill Pyktis. Pyktis did his best to ignore the pain and quickly got to his feet and moved away from both slashes. Pyktis quickly swung his lightsaber at the face of one soldier cutting it's skull in half then quickly doing a high kick to the other soldier and then jabbing his lightsaber into the face of another soldier. Pyktis's pain was really kicking in. Pyktis fell to a knee. No force here was taking more of a toll than he thought it would. Pyktis looked up to see the Imperial Military figured out the weakness and were all aiming at the faces of the soldiers. But as many as they killed the Dread was killing just as much imperials. Pyktis climbed to his feet ignoring the pain and charged more soldiers. He quickly begun a sword duel with another Dread. As the battle waged on Sith Starfighters screamed above head blasting Dread Soldiers and Bombers doing strifes dropping bombs. This was really helping out the fight. Pyktis would see it out of the corner of his eyes the Dread being bombed and blasted killing handfuls of them as Pyktis kept his fight going with the Dread in front of him.

As imperials and Dread alike battled. Among the fight hidden was the coldness. Darth Nivalis leaped out of a passing by bomber shuttle landing in the center of a crowd of Dread Soldiers. His eyes glowing blue hood up hiding his face only his breathing mask visible. Nivalis iced his arms and his sword. He quickly begun slashing and stabbing at the Dread's faces watching from Pyktis to learn their weakness. As he used one hand to swing the Tulsa he would use his indestructible ice arms punching Dread's in the face killing them. Nivalis's skill in combat was a sight to see, it was so fast and acrobatic. He was shown a fearful force as he continued to swing his sword and his Combat prowess to kick and punch Dreads. Nivalis could feel the lack of the force around him. It was horrid, it felt empty. This wasn't good because Nivalis had to be careful on using his cryomancer abilities because it would drain alot out of him. Nivalis then suddenly got thrown back into a wall from an explosion. The rubble fell on him. Vision blurry but Nivalis made out a tank. Nivalis crawled to his feet and snuck behind a wall to regain his composure and regain focus. Nivalis holds his right hand up at waist height and begins creating a cyan glowing ice orb hovering in his hand. Once the ice ball was the size of a melon, Nivalis came out of cover and threw the ice ball at the tank. The tank froze and crashed into the ground and slid across the ground running over many of its troops killing several of them. The tank finally slid to a stop 2 meters from Nivalis. Nivalis then leaped forward to engage his next target.

Post by Lord Kao on May 5, 2019 0:20:25 GMT -5
The Sith Empire's prison world of Ziost was under attack from the Dread Army, and Lord Kao was leading the various forces which had become quasi-allies in order to stop this threat. The planet housed Force Sensitives of high power and for questionable reasons, and it housed various artifacts which the Empire was not currently using. The main one which the entire invasion was most likely about was the Phobis Devices, as through them the Dread Master could create more "official" dread masters, as his "dread masters" were such only in name, not in experience. Other things within the planet's vault were artifacts such as Insanity Scrolls and the Darkstaff, and numerous holocrons. Now Lord Kao had been given the right to direct and position troops from their allies, but it would be up to the troops themselves whether or not they would listen. hopefully they would. The entrance to both the prison and the vaults was the same rocky entrance, with a strong perimeter of both natural and unnatural defenses. The mountainous and rocky outcroppings kept the area both well hidden and from becoming a flat battlefield. This was perfect for ambushes, and for a strong defense. He had a holographic version of himself relay a message to all of the defendants. Every soldier, Sith, Jedi, Mandalorian, and more saw it if they were on the general encrypted connection alongside their personal communications. ***** To the Defendants of Ziost, This is Lord Kao of the Sith Empire speaking. We have heavy amounts of enemy forces moving in from the north, and they seem to be coming in fast. This is the Dread Army, and they will not die easily. Luckily, neither shall we. All Mandalorians, please prepare for light skirmishes and ambushes to wear down the incoming army, while all Force-Users and normal Soldiers of any kind group together outside of the prison gates. There, each Force User will be assigned their own amount of soldiers to command, and the higher ranking Force Sensitives will have higher reaches of command. All Dathomiri are to go with the Mandalorians, but are to attempt to flank the Army from its right, and all Republic Forces flank from the west where the hills are not as jagged and your tanks can be of greater advantage. The remaining troops of the combined forces will, after the initial skirmishes, form into separate phalanxes and crush the invaders. They cannot, and i repeat, CANNOT be allowed to gain access to the prison, and especially to our vaults. For if they do so, then we can say goodbye to the galaxy as it is and surrender ourselves to death. Now lets work together, as brothers and sisters, as a single unit, as an Army, as a Galaxy. Good luck, and go kill some undead invaders!*****
Kao then got to the head of the combined forces, and taking almost everyone but for a remaining last line of defense, started a march towards the Dread Army. He knew that they would be pushed back, so Lord Kao decided to stop the march and for them to set up around the hills with a weaker center, so as to draw the enemy in while the flanks were strengthened. In the very back and atop every hilltop were sharpshooters and snipers, just waiting to remove some heads from bodies and to create dents in the enemy's formation. Using a flamethrower, a smoke grenade, and some well timed precision, Lord Kao projected into the air one final reminder of what was to happen. All that was spelled out in the giant lettering made from flames was a three letter word: WARBy the time that the word had faded away, the beginning of the skirmishes had begun. Various Sith who had not waited for the combining of Forces had gone ahead and attacked the Dread Army, and the sounds of battle could be heard by all who stood behind Lord Kao. His answer to this was simple. "Follow your orders. Stay within your phalanxes of men. Charge together. Now, CHARGE!" The Storyteller ,Sied Nevra ,Darth Pyktis,Darth Nivalis

The Republic would soon arrive, their Dropships carrying with them troopers. There were those who's till bore the old dura-armor, it wasn't necessary for all to have the Rocket armor that was becoming a more common use among their troopers. They would land on the West front. The Dread Army was getting boxed in. Getran himself stepped to the front lines as they brought down Front Liner Tanks, all preparing a wall of the Reflection Emitter shields and beginning to move forwards. The troopers stationed behind were already informed on where they needed to hit, the faces, open, an easy target for the experienced troops. Those who weren't given this instruction were armed with REEM launchers, aiming for the enemy vehicles, or for the edges of the enemy troops, making sure they couldn't escape. Getran stood, fully armored, fully armed, watching the undead horde. Breathing in and out carefully. He was fully charged recently. Today was going to be a bad day for the undead. As the tanks drew closer, with the troops remaining behind firing from the cover of their armor. Though their shields would not protect them from the enemy blasters much, they did prevent them from getting near them. Even if they didn't get destroyed by the field wall, the power it had would launch them back into the rest of the horde if they tried to rush it or push through. As they got close enough Getran leapt into them, this was where they were weakest. A planet stripped of the force. And Getran was not going to miss the chance to take advantage of that. He knew full well he was possibly one of the most dangerous people on the battlefield at this moment. As the lack of the force did not stop his Alpha Neural Network, nor his cybernetics, from operating on a level akin to a force user. He took their blaster fire head on, thanks to his armor, and as they struck at him with their vibro blades he brought his own phrik Zhaboka up blocking it, then pulled out his blaster and fired point blank at the head. Holstering it and grabbing the sword from him as he fell, using it to block another as he came in from behind, turning and stabbing it through the head with his Zhaboka which would come around again spinning. He'd continue to keep going, his armor and body were designed to tank this kind of damage, but even so he would use a combination of his weapons, sensors, and systems, in order to prevent as much damage as possible, all the while wreaking absolute havoc. More strength then a wookie, the speed enough to keep par with a force user, along with the many advantages his cybernetics gave him, made him a much more dangerous opponent in this battle then these undead. If this were a battle where they were strongest, like on Mustafar, or another planet. He would be more careful. They might actually scare him. But right now he was fighting was less then elsewhere. And a perfect moment to experiment with just how far he could push his body without having to actually feel threatened by them. The Storyteller , Sied Nevra , Darth Pyktis , Darth Nivalis ,

Sied reorganized the Dathomir Collective's forces with the Mandalorians, moving them to attempt to flank the enemy. She had yet to participate in the battle physically as they hadn't been close enough yet, aside form shooting from a distance. Her Droid Servant force started to move, every one keeping an appropriate pace as they kept their cannons blasting away, if a face showed up, they fired at it. It wasn't the most efficient method but it was a cheap one. And by far the easiest route to take here. They would overtake them by sheer numbers. If the enemy did get close, they would switch to Pikes, and several Servant Droids at once would reach out to keep them at a distance just long enough for either a Sister, a Zabrak, or another droid to make the attack or attacks for the head. They just needed the right strategy to take these guys down. The issue of course was if they did get close, they often took more with them then the Collective took down. Thank goodness for how cheap droids were. Sied breathed in firing several shots and dodging as one of the undead started targeting her, presumably due to the relatively high position she had taken making her a more easily recognized target. But even without the force, the Nightsisters and the Brothers were very swift. Not the easiest targets to take down in spite of the generally weak armor. Still, they were keeping their distance. They didn't have as many highly skilled forces for this type of situation in up close combat. The Brothers and Sisters were very skilled yes, but they were low in number. Hence the reliance on the droids for the brunt of their force. It made it possible to dwindle enemy numbers before they reached them. Of course, they were also not the most reliable shots. This was going to be a very frustrating battle. The Storyteller, Sied Nevra, Darth Pyktis, Darth Nivalis, Lord Kao, Kross,

The Black Death, Moff Lorna Frye had taken to the field with a small squad of 8 other members of the Death Corps and set up a defensive position near the entrance the prison. She would have preferred a more offensive position but this enemy was something she had never faced before and yet what she was trained for. She watched Lord Kao give his speech with her squad before she commanded the squad through their jarbled comms to bunker down and shoot anything that comes near this entryway. "Death Corps are in position Lord Kao." she relayed over the general comms channel. It wasn't long before the Dread forces soon started to make their way to Lorna and her squad, "Fire at will!!" she commanded. Blaster fire pelted the first line of their troops knocking them down for but a moment before they picked themselves back up again to continue fighting. Lorna growled in annoyance, realizing body shots were not going to be enough to slow them down. She quickly took cover as a blaster bold from the Dread Forces almost caught her helmet, giving her an idea "Go for the head. Take precise head shots, body shots have no effect on them." One of her men came out of cover and threw a thermal imploder towards the enemy forces, getting hit in the shoulder and knocking him onto his back. Lorna quickly checked him over and got him back into the fight. "Dread forces are at the east gate and numbers are increasing quickly." she informed over the general comms to any and old forces close by. Sied Nevra, Darth Pyktis, Darth Nivalis, Lord Kao,

Pyktis had battled hard for the last 2 years fighting these Dread Soldiers. Losses from both sides. Finally Pyktis watches as the Dread Soldiers retreated. But then Pyktis heard over the coms about the Netherworld portal opening on Kamino. Pyktis then looked to the sky noticing shuttles coming down. As they landed stormtroopers came out, but these were not normal stormtroopers. They were zombified. Pyktis twirled his lightsaber in a circle and then charged at the zombies. Pyktis would run into the herd avoiding getting bit at every cost swinging his lightsaber as much as he could citing heads off the zombies one after another. This was insane, damn zombies, what would the Dread Masters throw at us next Pyktis thought to himself. He would feel the bodies drop as he quickly cut through them. This was crazy, the Galactic Civil War army coming back to bite them in the ass.

The Ziost Citadel, an ancient storage of sith knowledge, now sealed up and can be only opened by Vyrassu and those powerful enough in the Darkside. The Dread Masters wanted that secret knowledge at any cost. They begun a campaign on Ziost to either open the temple of destroy it. A campaign that would be historical. Will you defend it or let it fall? OOC NOTE: The temple cannot be entered as it's sealed. You have until 9:00 pm Pacific time tomorrow to complete this campaign.

Garish knew they had forces on Ziost, fighting to protect the sith Empire. He was currently on Kalee however. In the hidden temple where they keep the Altar of the Fanged God. He was busy constructing another creature while planning when suddenly he heard the Fanged God's voice as in a mist the Fanged God appeared before him. The son of Zenon bowed deeply but the Fanged God ignored it,"The Force has returned to Ziost, I have sensed it. Now, go forth, succeed, and you may gain their assistance." Garish lifted his head, the skull hiding his expression, but underneath was a most disturbing smile, "Your wish is my command oh great lord." in a moment the Fanged God would alter space itself, folding it, using the Force to move himself across the galaxy in an instant, directly into the battlefield on Ziost. There were two things that made him and his father similar, aside from being on Dathomir. They were powerful, and they liked to make a scene when fighting. Clothed in Rancor skin and bones, the Domindori/Dathomiri hybrid raised his arms to the side, his voice seemed raspy and echoed, words of Dathomir echoing across the battlefield, zombies. Only The Fanged God and his chosen deserved to hold such power over life and death. In one final word he clapped his hands together and from the ground vines and thorns shot forth grasping the zombies, crushing and snapping them in their grasp. A forestry of these vines that were like the tentacles of a kraken in an instant, there, and gone before even a minute had passed, called back into the ground from where they came.
The Outcast could be heard laughing at the zombies and Dread Soldiers as they marched forwards. But he was not here just to curb their onslaught. He was here for the temple. "From me to you, I give greeting!" He shouted with a laugh, before that laugh turned into the Scream of the Ssurian directed specifically at the enemy for seconds, shattering bone and shaking the very ground at which it was directed. For all his insanity, he was still a threat. He stopped and looked into the sky, this time more at a regular voice that most might not hear without being near him, again in the language of the witches "Oh great Fanged God, for your throne, I shall call upon the powers of the Dark Magick. I shall defend the temple of these Sith so they may know of your kindness to them." He walked close to the Temple, as he did, that same strange echoing voice would be spoken. And powerful wind would emerge, rushing towards the armies oncoming, not to destroy them, but to make it easier for the Sith, Republic, and Dathomir militaries to do so. Rather, he was waiting. If the force had returned to Ziost, there was a reason for it. He was waiting to discover what that was.

While Getran Kross might have departed from the battlefield on Ziost after a time, he did have to attend to Republic matters, there were still forces kept on Ziost in order to assist. Mainly this was formed of sniper groups and the Front Liner tanks, in order to avoid major losses so they could be kept for other worlds. Among them was Dance, he kept his distance. Picking off zombies from a distance with his sniper rifle. They were easy targets, it was strange however. Still, the Dread Soldiers were back. And while the zombies were easy to rip apart, they were not so much. They still could manage to deflect his shots, so he'd resorted to firing two off almost immediately after each other. Or keeping them busy forcing them to keep up defenses from an enemy too far away to shoot back at, while allowing allies to deal with them. It really wasn't the most glamorous job, it was actually more about how fast he could keep the rhythm of doing it going. He'd probably kill more of them this way then trying to deal with them up close, well, not for the zombies, he could probably deal with those easily. The Dread Soldiers, probably not. He was skilled, but he did not possess super speed or a lightsaber or anything that would give him the edge against them except his immense training and unusual ability for patterns.

Pyktis had spent the last 3 years on the front lines of Ziost, and now the Dread Masters have decided to attack the Imperial Citadel on Ziost. Pyktis wasn't about to let this happen. Pyktis made his way to his shuttle and quickly boarded it ordering the pilot to take him to the Imperial Citadel. It took some time but Pyktis finally arrived to see enemy ships landing in the distance. Pyktis exited the shuttle and watched it take off. He then saw the Imperial Soldiers lining up aiming their guns for the fight. After a long few moments the Imperial Troopers begin firing at the zombie Stormtroopers and Dread Soldiers. Pyktis raced into the crowd and started swinging his lightsaber with a vengeance, cutting the heads off the zombies and stabbing his lightsaber through the faces of the Dread Soldiers. This was a fierce battle. Pyktis had no room for taking a breather, there was chaos all around and he was knees deep in the mess tactically striking with his lightsaber while deflecting blaster bolts from the ranged Dread soldier blasters and colliding his lightsaber with the melee Dread Soldiers and using his force abilities to push zombies away from him. Pyktis was only too glad the force was back on Ziost. The Dread Masters really wanted inside that citadel. But Pyktis wasn't going to allow it to happen, they'd have to kill him to get it. Which Pyktis was ready to die for his Empire here today, now. And if he died today, he'd be okay with it but they wouldn't get him without a fight, Pyktis would go down swinging

Elsewhere
Funami shook her head with false regret.
"Oh, I am certain they’re doing just fine, even without me. Why should I go to a Force void planet and engage in lightsaber duels? Look at me! I am not a seven foot tall mountain of muscle who can cause earthquakes by stomping her foot! I’m merely an acolyte and they are members of the dark council. Certainly I’d just get in the way. I mean, they are people who can destroy planets with a thought! And once the emperor wakes up, he can annihilate the rest and this pesky dread master business will be little more than bad a dream. There really is no need for me to do anything. It is a shame, really. But sometimes we must make hard choices."
Hard choices indeed!
In front of her was a table loaded with opulent meals, waiting for Funami to dig in. The smell of fresh, hot food was driving her crazy, but her host had done his best to hold the perpetually hungry Sithling back from the banquet. The morbidly obese Sith lord whose name she had managed to forget had invited Funami over for dinner, but she never would have imagined it to be a sumptuous feast. It certainly beat fighting on Ziost without any Force powers. She didn’t know how this man had learned of her voracious appetite, but he had the reputation of a gourmand. Funami was highly suspicious at first as he was very kind to her, nobody had ever been this kind. Only once the conversation progressed did she discover of his genuine love of food and endless consumption. That, and his fruitless search for worthy companions he could share with. Many had tried, fierce at first, promising great things, and then ended in a miserably small performance after the fourth meal. Finally. A nod of approval allowed Funami to stuff her face.
"These are krayt eggs. No better thing ever discovered to begin your dinner with. Darth Pyktis says shellfish are better. That is rubbish. I do not despise shellfish--why, she has eaten the whole eight already! Bravo! Bravo! An excellent beginning. Let me take away the plate, my dear miss. Now we have Hoi-broth soup. Gently, my young friend, gently. Ah, impetuous youth! More? Nerf sausages. Humor your appetite; don't drive it. It's really sinful to eat so fast. She takes all down without tasting it! No more; you must give yourself a fair chance and not spoil your dinner with too many sausages. Colo claw fish with Antarian peas. White suvoli cream--she has the appetite of a rancor, it's like a dream of fairyland! Opee sea killer fillet with roonan lemon and black hole pepper--a beautiful dream to see her. Smoked kaadu ribs served with cabbage and a muffin, she eats it up, bones and all. Careful about the pickled blackbeak eggs, don't eat them all at once--ahaha! She's Darth Cognus, Dark Lord of the Sith. Bivoli Tempari--gone like a cloud from the sky. Another Vercupti of sgazza boleruueé? Don't gobble up the food, my young friend; there is a limit to the cravings of nature imposed by the claims of art. Taste it. Jogan fruit cake? Haha! She eats it whole! Pause, my dear miss, and drink something. Here are wines, Chandrilan, and Celanon Semi-Dry; never touch Ardees, it's a scoundrel's beverage. Come, a little Domaine de la Maison sur le Lac to whet that appetite of yours."
She drank seven glasses in rapid succession and found them good. Very good, in fact. So good she had another glass and felt her head spin. Lightweight and unable to hold her liquor, Funami immediately started mowing down more food as the Sith lord watched with an ever increasing delight. He had finally found his match.
"Now, my Vyrassu, my Valkorion, my Vitiate," he mixed up his names, but it mattered nothing, "Here is Nerf tenderloin, with Jogan fruit and Roosha. More Domaine de la Maison sur le Lac? It's worth sums of credits to see her. Zinchari? More wine? Zinchari of porg? Gihaal zinchari of porg, young Darth Traya? Plenty of chandad? Ahaha! Plenty of chandad, she said! Why, she is like Acina, Empress of the Sith, this young girl!"
The sounds of particularly vocal chewing and eating followed, mostly from the little Sithling whose stomach apparently worked as a miniature black hole. Gorging on more and more, she choked and coughed when her throat proved too tight to take it in all at once.
"Porg or Endorian chicken? She takes both, like Vaylin. Some Creme D'Infame? Stew, my Lumiya, my Darth Zannah, meaty stew? Neft cubes stew? She has two helpings of the stew. Emperor Palpatine in all his glory never--A tiny glass of Arkanian sweet milk? A little hock to finish with? She takes her hock in a tumbler, this young Sorzus Syn. Neonan red cheese. A glass of vintage Abrax with the cheese. She takes that in a tumbler too, like Darth Talon, Whore of the Sith."
A piece of porg escaped her maw and hit the table.
Both of them broke into laughter.
