Bio

Just a random guy, doing random things. Main RP: Hell's Coffee Lounge Current RPs change often enough that it's too much effort keeping a list of them updated.

Well supposedly this guy is legendary, and the Jedi Council was trying to find him even after Palpatine's defeat. So Vader will definitely have heard of him, although he might have thought it but a myth.

Also, again, is this Legends or Canon Vader?
@Lmpkio
Hmmm... perhaps. Vader is probably the more powerful Sith, although Set is far older. Set definitely doesn't trust Vader though, and Vader would almost certainly attempt to make Set teach him the Essence Transfer. After all, that ritual might allow him to be moved into a more functional body, one that doesn't require life support.

Edit: Also, is this Legends Vader, or Canon Vader? Cuz Legends Vader is a lot more powerful than the latter.
I just realised I forgot to make some minor changes to Set's character sheet. So I'm putting the changes below for review.

Abilities:

[Mind Trick]
While far from true mind control, Set is quite proficient at using what is commonly referred to as the Mind Trick. This is one of the many tools he uses both to acquire artifacts across the galaxy and to stay hidden from those who would hunt him down. It's power is dependant on the target's willpower, with awareness of this ability further adding to the target's resistance. While Set might be able to convince a random soldier not to search him for weapons, or to dismiss him as a random beggar, he would have a hard time doing anything more than mildly influencing more competent soldiers. This power should not work on player characters, unless that player wishes it to. It also can't make people do things that go against their nature, or believe things they consider impossible. A more direct form of this ability he was taught by Darth Zannah is Force Fear, the ability to supernaturally instill fear in his enemies. He requires concentration to do this, and the fear has no effects beyond actual fear. But it can be used in combat to make enemies hesitate and to distract them, so long as he's able to focus on his enemy. It can also be used to scare away mooks.

[Sith Magic]
With some time, Set Harth is able to perform a variety of dark rituals. These can be used to speak to the dead, see into other locations, or to do other, more nefarious things. Lacking the raw power to perform the more powerful rituals, Set Harth is limited to relatively minor effects, although given the proper tools this can still be incredibly useful. Foremost among these rituals is of course the ritual of Spirit Transfer, which allows Set Harth to move his consciousness into another body. This requires time to set up and use and is therefore not a combat ability, and those with high willpower are able to resist the incursion. But this ability can allow Set Harth to take over another's body permanently should he get the chance to do so, eliminating the previous occupant. Usually he simply uses this on clones of himself, granting him eternal youth.
Name: Set Harth

Title: The Sith who Survived

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Personality:
Arrogant and long-lived, Set Harth is convinced he's smarter than everybody else. Even if he isn't the most powerful Force user, he's strong enough to handle whatever life throws at him as long as he doesn't tangle with those more powerful than himself. He's greedy and impulsive, and loves to prove himself superior to others. He can be merciless when someone stands between him and something he wants, but he takes no joy in the act of killing itself. He only kills when he needs to, or when somebody pisses him off.

Ideals:
Survival of the brightest, and unrelenting greed. The only people who deserve to own anything are those with the cunning or strength to take it, and keep it.

Biography:
Originally a student of the Jedi during the time of the Old Republic, Set's fascination with Sith artifacts soon led him to become exiled from the order. He travelled the universe, collecting these artifacts and learning from them. While not a true Sith he was a Dark Jedi, abandoning their morals and instead indulging in his own obsessive collection. This could not last as he was eventually apprenticed by Darth Zannah, who recognised his skill and was in need of an apprentice. Of course Set was no more loyal to the Sith than he was to the Jedi, and soon he betrayed his mistress. During Zannah's attempt to first rescue and then kill Darth Bane with Harth watching her ship the fickle collector disobeyed her, and instead went snooping around the Stone Prison. There he discovered the Holocron of Heresies, an item of incredible power that had been taken from Darth Bane, the current Dark Lord of the Sith. With this Holocron he escaped on Zannah's ship, effectively ending his apprenticeship.

While hiding undercover from both the Sith and the Jedi, Set learned from the Holocron of Heresies. He was taught the power of Spirit Transfer, the ability to transfer his consciousness into another body and one of the most sought-after Sith magics. Using this power and a series of clone manufacturers he was able to not only easily hide his identity but also gain immortality. Continuing to learn and gather artifacts he prospered even as empires rose and fell around him. He was around before Palpatine was born and yet unconfirmed reports show him to have been alive long after the fall of the Galactic Empire. While many other Sith can rival Set's powers and knowledge, few can claim to have lived as successful and luxurious a life.

Powers:

[Force Sense]
Through the Force, Jedi and Sith alike are able to sense things hidden from the physical senses. Most Force users are able to sense attacks before they happen, allowing them to dodge preemptively and making sneak attacks very hard. Harth mastered these senses under Zannah's tutoring, and has learned to sense the presence of other living or sentient beings. He can fight in the dark as if he could see and few can elude his expanded awareness.

[Enhanced Physical Prowess]
Channeling the Force through one's body allows for superhuman feats of speed, strength and agility. Coupled with extensive training this makes Set a fearsome warrior indeed. He can move incredibly fast, and put superhuman force behind his lightsaber strikes. He is not a master of this art though, and he favours speed over strength. So while still mildly superhuman, he lacks the power to bench-press cars or to toss people around like ragdolls.

[Telekinesis]
Reaching out with the Force, Set is able to move objects with his mind. This talent can be employed in a number of ways. Often he uses it to launch nearby objects at his enemies, distracting and disabling them. Another use for this ability is the lightsaber throw, one of his most advanced techniques. After throwing the blade he uses the Force to return it to his hand, allowing him to throw again. This ability can also be used to directly manipulate others, and Set is skilled at the classic Force Choke.

Weapons:
A standard single-blade Lightsaber, a Disruptor Pistol, a Blaster Pistol, and a Sith Warblade.

Equipment:
A number of Sith amulets and Artifacts.

If there's still room, i'd like to show some interest.
Is there still space in this one?
@SanaChan
Sorry, didn't see your post ^-^

It was actually a typo, which I intend to fix. Should say 17.

History
History:
Like most of her species, Emily was born and left on a storm cloud, never to know of her parentage. Maturing among the dancing arcs of lightning she quickly grew up. She reached maturity above a scene of Brittish landscape, and descended upon the landscape with the curiosity of a child. She moved across the world for years, traveling with the clouds when it suited her. Cocky to the brink of arrogance she lived the life of a delinquent, never a truly harmful criminal but criminal nonetheless. She stole the clothes she liked, destroyed objects for fun, and occasionally caused freak thunderstorms. Her powers meant nobody was able to stop her, and those few supernatural beings she met had little interest in interfering. This was until she met another of her own kind. In arrogance she believed to pull a prank on this other raiju, which ended quite badly for her.

Beaten, scolded and rained wet she showed up one day at the Institute, saying only that she had to go here as punishment. Unknown to her it had been her own father who had finally beaten some sense into her, and now payed for her tuition here. She might not need protection, but she certainly needed teaching, and her often rambunctious nature would provide an apt challenge to any attendant teachers.
