Darth Kestrel or Lord Kestrel, later known as Emperor Kestrel, created the Sith Empire of Vjun and is credited with unifying the major of that timeperiod, this unification was the first to take place since the original unification of the Sith under Darth Padar. Kestrel was a unique ruler, in that it was his sole drive to push forward the way of the Sith. Creating the Assembly of Darkness as an assembly of sith leaders, Kestrel slowly began to win their respect and backing. Kestrel, with the full support of the major Sith Orders, forcibly took the title of Emperor from Dark Lord Malice on Ziost (whom he had previously served under as Dark Architect) and moved the Sith Capital to Vjun.
