The Order of the Obelisk is the newest and largest of three Orders within the Brotherhood of the Dark Jedi, a subgroup of the Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet. We are dedicated to the use of Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight as a way to compete against one another, but we also have many other opportunities for our members, such as fiction. The Obelisk are the premiere ground troops within the Dark Brotherhood and often act as bodyguards to important officials. The Obeliskan's skill with the lightsaber is known throughout the galaxy; in fact, many Light Jedi have turned to the Dark Side for the sole purpose of studying with the Obelisk Masters. The Obelisk members are also part of Houses and Clans, another smaller level of organization within the Brotherhood. The House rivalries are strong but loyalty to the Order is stronger. To further structurize the organization, each member holds a certain rank and possibly a title or position. These are all displayed on the member's ID Line, which is a filing system of sorts. With over 1,500 members, it would get confusing without the use of this system. The member can also display the medals they have earned through this ID line. Most of the medals, ranks, and titles are the same in every order, however, the more higher ranked you get, the more distinct the names become based on Order.

The following snippet about our Order was taken from the Dark Side Compendium:

"The Obelisk is an order reserved for those who serve the Empire in its military forces, but are not by their nature pilots or navy personnel. This will most often mean stormtroopers, or similar ground personnel. The Obelisk is engaged as an elite arm of the Dark Brotherhood stationed on-board the flagship Avenger. Members of the Obelisk are concerned with ground warfare, especially concentrating on the skills of melee combat. Soldiers of the Obelisk are some of the most skilled wielders of lightsabers in the Galaxy, and the constantly practice this skill, honing it to a razor edge. The Obelisk is lead by the High Commander. Houses allied with or composed of Obelisk warriors will attempt to subdue their enemies through a policy of strong diplomacy and threats. Often the Obelisk will teeter on the brink of inter-house war before backing down."
