Xanic Wyn

From Star Wars: Exodus Visual Encyclopedia

"This isn't vengeance. It's justice. Plain and simple."

— Strife

Xanic Wyn was once a young Jedi Knight, a noble warrior for a noble order. Then he fell to the Dark Side and became a powerful master. However, this change was soon rectified when he died and rose again as a vigilant, force-less defender of the innocent.

[edit] Biography

[edit] Early Life

"My mother was a Jedi. My father as well. I am Jedi; a legacy in the Force."

— Xanic Wyn

Xanic Wyn (4 ABY) is the son of two Jedi Knights, Cazzik Wyn and Renalla Starrider. He wasn't born the conventional way. Both he and his brother, Caius, were actually grown in cloning cylinders, though they aren't clones. Their mother, after leaving the Jedi Order, used samples of her own and her ex-fiance's DNA to create them. She wanted to preserve the Wyn name by creating Jedi Knights loyal to the light, unlike their father. She had originally left because she felt Cazzik slipping into darkness. Xanic and Caius spent fifteen years with their mother on a barren planet called Ronu III, training in the ways of the Force. Renalla died of a mysterious disease and the two boys spent the next three years alone on the planet, training themselves. One day, by accident or will of the Force, Cazzik along with the Bothan Jedi Master, Xanamiar Knight, showed up on the planet. They took the boys and Caius and Xanic finished their Jedi training with their father.

[edit] Lord Kamulos

"My father is weak. I am nothing like him. Power flows through me like a river; a force of nature!"

— Xanic Wyn

After a time, Xanic and Cazzik's differences drove them apart. Xanic left his father's side and went in search of others who could teach him true power. Xanic slowly drifted to the dark side. He became powerful in his own right, eventually being recruited by a dark master, along with several others, after destroying his father's old apprentice, Kel Sidal, and all of Sidal's trainees. Xanic left this new order of Dark Siders after their leader was slain. The Force led him to Tatooine where he met the Iktochi Dark Jedi, Raze. Raze was searching for a place called Kora, the City of the Jedi. He offered the young Xanic a place by his side, a purpose. They would locate Kora together and access the centuries old knowledge that lay there. However, on their travels they encountered a significant number of Jedi Masters on the planet Zeroth, all of which belonged to the ancient order, the Council of Kora, who protected the city. They incapacitated Raze. Xanic, in an awesome display of power, destroyed all of the Masters. However, such power nearly destroyed him as well. His body was literally falling apart. Raze kept him alive using the Dark Side long enough to travel to the planet Sonus, who's people were renowned for their technological achievments. He forced a group of their top scientists to create a containment unit for the dying Dark Jedi. They did, and the boy, upon being "reborn," took the name Kamulos. Raze swore allegiance to him, realizing just how powerful the younger Dark Jedi was. Together, they built the Cylon Imperium in order to expand their resources and locate Kora more quickly.

[edit] Cylon

"The Jedi will fall before my power. My father shall watch as his precious order and friends are eradicated before his very eyes. And when the smoke clears, I shall take pleasure in ending his life myself."

— Kamulos talking about Cazzik Wyn

However, they failed. Cazzik Wyn and Cadden Blackthorne, along with their allies, located the city first. Kamulos launched an all out assault on the city from Cylon. The battle was fierce and long. In the end, the Jedi held the city against Kamulos' forces. During the conflict the Dark Master lost several servants, including the Dark Jedi Raze, Azriel, and Raven. The Mandalorian Kir Varrus was nearly killed as well. With his forces diminished and all but one servant in tact, Kamulos set out to gain power yet again. He reformed the Detori, the order created by the Dark Jedi Quinis Asanis, and which Raze belonged. Along with two other dark masters they formed the Detori Triumvirate. Kamulos rules one of the three factions known as the Wraith. However, shortly after the Battle of Taylon, Lord Kamulos was defeated on Cerrik by his own brother, Sion.

[edit] Rebirth

"Though life has returned to my eyes, it came at a price. I no longer feel the Force. It has abandoned me; a fitting punishment for one who has abused its power."

— Xanic Wyn to Talon Karde

The dark master, before his death, had a contingency plan in case of his demise. He had learned how to bring people back to life through the Force. He had done it with his father, and a few others. However, bringing himself back turned out to be more difficult. On the remote, tropical planet of Shrin II, he had a secret base with a single cloning cylinder in it. Inside the cylinder was a clone of himself, kept in stasis, waiting for him to inhabit it. He brought his spirit back from the netherworld of the Force, much the way Emperor Palpatine once did. However, he was not as skilled. He managed to bring himself back from the dead, but he had severed his link to the Force forever. It was here, on this backwater world, without anyone else around and no Force that he trained himself in a new way. Even without being able to sense the great binding energy, he was more of a warrior now then he ever was. And there were other advantages. Without a link to the Force, he was no longer connected to the corruptive power of the Dark Side. Xanic was eventually discovered on the planet by Talon Karde, the founder of Karde Enterprises as well as the Red Star Alliance. Karde knew exactly who Xanic was, for he and Cazzik had been bitter enemies for some time. However, that history was over, and Karde realized Xanic had nothing left. He took him in and allowed him to live in his mansion on Corellia.

[edit] The Protector

"You have potential, Xanic. Potential to make a difference in this galaxy. I can show you a new path; one of honor."

— Talon Karde

Xanic felt extreme guilt for the things he did while under the influence of the Dark Side. He wished to make up for his past, and decided to take on some of the larger aspects of the Corellian underworld. With Karde's help they cleaned out many crime bosses, making life on Corellia just a little bit better. Karde realized the younger man's potential. Xanic could make a difference in the galaxy. He had the drive, and the skills. So the two began preparing the young Wyn to take on the larger evils of the galaxy. Karde designed the greatest ship of his career, the Infinity, and hid the plans away so only he and Xanic knew how to access them. The ship was to be Xanic's personal transport. However, they decided he also needed something else. To protect himself, Karde, and the company, he needed to hide his face. After all, Wyn was no longer a Jedi, and didn't have the Force to call upon to see what may happen in the future.

[edit] Strife

"People always think its the armor. Yeah, it has some definite advantages. But the part where you're getting your ass kicked; thats all me."

— Strife

Karde created an armored suit to aid Xanic in his battles. After which, Talon informed him that he was leaving, and giving him the company. Xanic accepted and Karde disembarked from the public eye. It was after taking on the ownership of Karde Enterprises that Wyn took on the name Strife when in his suit. He purchased a Venator-class Star Destroyer Mark II and had it refitted to act as a mobile command center for Karde Enterprises. The ship was named the The Justice. He gathered together the best soldiers KE had to offer to station on his ship. He outfitted them with state of the art combat armor that closely resembled the ARC Trooper armor from the Clone Wars. In time of great need they provide back up for Strife, and have even been known to rescue the hero at times. Though Xanic is now warrior for good, there are many out there that would still kill him for his past crimes. For this reason he has opted to not be the CEO of KE, instead remaining a silent, unseen owner for the most part. Very few know that Xanic Wyn, the man who was once called Kamulos, still lives, and even fewer know he is the vigilante, Strife.

[edit] Lorna Rayne

"You can't die on me, Xanic. I need you. I love you."

— Lorna Rayne

While fighting the Hutt Crime Cartel Strife came upon a beautiful woman being held as a slave by Giza the Hutt. He easily defeated Giza's thugs and released all the slaves. However, only one of them approached to thank him; Lorna Rayne. She had requested to accompany him, but he refused and left the planet. Unknown to him Lorna had somehow managed to track his ship, which was virtually impossible. A short time after he had docked with the Justice Lorna showed up in an X-Wing pretending to seek refuge. Against his better judgment he instructed his crew to allow her to stay. Upon returning after battling another Hutt he found that Lorna had discovered his secret. She had gained access to parts of the ship that housed his vigilante gear. Though he was not enthused by this turn of events his assistant, Ronin, was. He convinced Xanic that she could help them. Lorna was instrumental in tracking down a crime lord the Hutts had been working for; a man named Xal Shun. Strife managed to take Shun's operation down, but Shun nearly killed him in the process before he escaped arrest. It was then that Lorna and Xanic discovered how much they meant to each other. After making a full recovery Xanic invited her to live with him permanently and help represent his company, now named Wyn Enterprises, by his side.

Strife utilizes numerous weapons and technological advancements. His armor is laced with cortosis ore to aid in any encounter he may have with Dark Jedi. It also has a unique filtering system that can be modified to filter out anything from poisons to pheromones. Built in is a short range scanner that can pick up anyone within the vicinity. The armor allows Strife short periods of flight, two and a half minutes to be precise, with a cool down period of ten minutes in between. He also has the ability to send out a high charge electrical pulse throughout the armor, electrocuting anyone touching him.
