Competition: [TalEx CC] The Brothers of the Derriphan

Finished

[TalEx CC] The Brothers of the Derriphan

Specifics

The Massassi are a Unique Infantry Unit available only to Clan Taldryan. During the Fleet Purchases, we doubled our Massassi Force by adding another "regiment." Fictionally, each new regiment of Massassi that Taldryan purchases will be its own tribe. Given the history and back story of the Massassi, the name for our current tribe of Massassi is the Derriphan, which were creatures created by the Dark side of the Force.

So, in keeping with that theme, we need to name our newest tribe of Massassi. Your job is to come up with this name. Winning entries will be related to the ancient Sith, its homeworlds, former Sith Lords, or locations... essentialy find a cool Sith Related name and give me a brief backstory on the name and why our tribe would have taken that name for themselves.

Wrath Tribe:

Named after a position created by the Emperor of the reconstituted Sith Empire. The tribe named itself Wrath to honor the men and women, whose position required that an individual serve as a personal enforcer and executioner for the Emperor, taking orders directly from and answering only to him. Unlike the rest of the Emperor's servants, who are bound to his will by a dark side ritual, the Wrath is given autonomy, as the Emperor requires that his Wrath use the full fury of their power.
