The History of Darth Mantus
Astarus Kora grew up as a young, poor human child on Coruscant. When he was ten his parents were killed by Bracca the Hutt for refusing to sell his death sticks and Astarus was left alone, an orphan in the dangerous lower levels of Coruscant. One day while Astarus was hiding in Jillad's Cantina down near the Industrial Sector a stange dark cloaked figure entered the bar and spoke in a hushed, hoarse voice to Jillad, the owner of the bar, a nikto. The figure seemed to be weak and leant continuosuly on a stick for support, but Astarus caught a glance of some form of shiny weapon hidden beneath the figure's cloak. After a while the conversation between Jillad and the stranger became more heated and eventually the figure, who had appeared weak at first leant across the bar and slit the nikto's throat with a vibroblade. At this moment a quarren and wookie Jillad's security stood up and rushed towards the dark stranger, blasters in hand. Suddenly the shining weapon that Astarus had glanced flew up into the stranger's hand and a red lightsabre blade ignited. The quarren and wookie tried to dive out of the way but were cut down swiftly by the stranger's blade. Astarus himself dived into a corner, just as the other 4 creatures in the bar began to flee and the black cloaked figure launched a thermal detonator at them. There was a huge explosion, the stranger leapt backwards into the startled Astarus and knocked him to the ground. Beneath the hood of the cloaked figure two red eyes lit up with hatred 'Boy' cried the stranger, turning to slash at the child with his lightsabre, but to the sith's amazement the child moved with unnatural swiftness, leaping on to the table and fleeing out of the door. Darth Millennial stared at the desolation that he had caused and licked his lips, Jillad was dead, he had acheived what he had wanted, yet the fact that the child had survived troubled him and something else. He had felt the force move in the child, perhaps he thought...perhaps........... It was later that day when all was quiet in a far eastern part of the industrial district, where tall gas pipes rise above the ground, that Darth Millenial found the boy, alone and afraid. It did not take long to persuade him of the powers that Millenial could offer, powers to overcome those who had exploited him in the past, the power of the dark side of the force. Astarus had overheard a conversation once in a bar near the Jedi Temple of the so called Sith but had never believed them to be more than a myth. Now he knew they were a reality and a way of escape from Coruscant. He decided, he would leave with the dark stranger..... (To be continued)
