| - The young man that eventually became Darth Callidus was born on his family's homeworld of Arcis, an Imperial Fortress world and the center of a secret supply-line connecting Dromund Kaas to Thule nestled in the heart of Stygian Caldera, long before the production of the Infinite Forge the Arcis system was still a major contributor to the Imperial War Machine with it containing its own Sith Academy, Imperial Military Academy and countless Weapon and Ship Production facilities thus Callidus was born at the center of all the militant chaos of the system. Darth Callidus was revealed to have been experimented upon when in his mother's womb which led to his mother's death after the genetic enhancements combined with his high Force potential caused her devastating stress, despite being the death of his mother he keeps in keen contact with his protective older and also genetically enhanced sister, who had become a talented Imperial Admiral on her way to becoming a Moff. When he was a toddler, the Emperor decided to recruit him into the Children of the Emperor upon detecting the Force power potential and gaining a glimpse through a Force vision of the beneficial future the youth would bring to his Empire, Vitiate intended that Callidus be one of his backup plans when it came to the Children. Indirectly trained by the Sith Emperor through Telepathy and trained directly by his father, Darth Marr, Callidus grew rapidly into a powerful Sith and by what Mandalorians consider adulthood he began making a name for himself within the Imperial Military which his father held shared reign over. He would participate in the Invasion of Eriadu, Blockade of Taris, Space Battle over Quesh during the Cold War, and the Invasion of Corellia, the Battle of Dromund Kaas and command the First, Second and Third Space Battles of Ilum during the Second Great Galactic War while still just a Sith Lord. This was due to the fact that Callidus had become distracted briefly from the War and building his power-base when he set out to reorganize his fellow Children of the Emperor after the defeat of the Emperor and First Son, soon the Republic Strategic Information Service and the Jedi Order would pick up a codename for the new leader of the Children, therefore their mysterious new leader became known as the "Dark Prince" and even the Emperor's Children came to refer to him as such.
