Anti Republic Liberation Front (ARLF) A militant insurgent group that sprang up on Serenno after the Battle of Ruusan, it argued that the Galactic Senate was no longer capable of acting on behalf of the galaxy, especially after the passing of the Ruusan Reformations. The insurgents urged disillusioned star systems to secede from the Republic and become independent entities. The ARLF, led by a man named Hettom, was backed by the wealth of noble families. The ARLF was in truth a way for Hetton to amass an army to resurrect the Sith. The group attempted, but failed, to assassinate Chancellor Tarsus Valorum. The ARLF eventually was dismantled by Darth Bane and Darth Zannah, who had their own plans for the Republic.

Hetton A native of Serenno, he was the leader of the Anti-Republic Liberation Front 10 years after the Battle of Ruusan. A small man who chose to dress in all black, Hetton was in his mid-50s when the ARLF began planning more aggressive actions. Unknown to his comrades, Hetton had a strong connection to the dark side of the Force. This connection was obvious to Zannah, who infiltrated the group to undermine their activities.

In the wake of a failed assassination attempt on former Chancellor Tarsus Valorum, Hetton ordered Zannah captured and brought to him, not immediately realizing that she was the heir to Darth Bane's Sith teachings. But then Hetton told Zannah that he had been looking for a Sith to guide his training. He explained that he knew of Belia Darzu's fortress on Tython, and that he could show her skills that would help her defeat Darth Bane. Hetton had been collecting Sith artifacts for years, and revealed that he had been forced to poison his mother when she attempted to control his life.

Zannah agreed to take on Hetton as her apprentice. They journeyed to Ambria, ostensibly to defeat Darth Bane, but the Sith Lord proved to be much stronger than Hetton had anticipated. With two slashes of his lightsaber, Bane severed Hetton's arm before running him through, killing Hetton instantly. Hetton died without knowing that he had been betrayed by Zannah, who only sought to obtain his knowledge to help her Master grow in power.

Zannah, Darth (relevant portion only) Zannah executed missions including inciting Kelad'den and the Anti-Republic Liberation Front on Serenno, and forcing the Jedi Order to go on peacekeeping missions that spread their numbers thin. She also encountered the dark side follower Hetton, who had acquired a wealth of Sith lore and artifacts. Seeing a chance to further her own growth and assist her Master, Zannah took Hetton as her apprentice, provided that he give her access to his information. Using his collection, Zannah learned of Belia Darzu's hidden fortress on Tython, then took Hetton's loyal Umbaran shadow assassins to confront Darth Bane. On Ambria, Zannah made it appear as if she and Hetton had come to execute her Master, but Bane cut Hetton down and confronted Zannah. She earned his trust when she provided information that the hidden Tython fortress might contain a Sith Holocron as well as instructions on how to make such devices, something for which Bane had long searched.
