Korriban, home of the Sith Empire. For millennia, it has seen its fortunes rise and fall with each Sith Empire that comes to power. Its heights in the Great Hyperspace War, the Galactic Civil War, and that period which had driven you to near obsession: the New Sith wars. Korriban itself is near useless for anything other than its symbolism and the stories of it being a Force Nexus. It is here where the Sith met their end.
A small force of the Brotherhood of the Sith had been split off from Ruusan in order to ensure the Jedi's destruction. Taking inspiration from Sith of old, they were tasked with laying waste to Coruscant. They only just succeeded. They retreated here, to Korriban, after their raid of Coruscant and the destruction of the Jedi Order. Weakened as they were and unaware of the disaster of Ruusan, they arrived merely to run to mutual destruction against Bane and his apprentice. While the Republic was tearing itself apart with the Crisis, the Sith were now openly devolving into their own blood letting. A group of men were able to claw their way to the top. Styling themselves "Regents" to the Sith throne, they managed to gain control over the core territories.
But without any true Sith to lead, what once was an Empire that spanned the Outer Rim has now devolved into a mere pocket. Century after century, the Regents let slip more territory. Due to war or internal conflict, it didn't matter. The Sith "Empire" is now but a shadow of its former self. And you are certain that the blame rests with the Council of Regents. Weak men with no ambition. It was an obligation for any true Sith to overrule them.
And you did so with flourish by using your ...

And yet the Regents hold on by a mere thread and cower on Athiss. They aren't even Sith and yet they call you an Usurper!? They have no right to claim power over the Empire! But then again … do you?
