The Altar of Darth NihilusDarth Nihilus
Little is known of Nihilus's true beginnings, other than the fact that he was a survivor of the Mandalorian Wars, and may or may not have at one point been a prisoner of the Mandalorians. Although his role in the Mandalorian wars is a mystery, it is possible that he may have been one of the Jedi that defied the Jedi Council to follow Revan into the wars. After the war he was found by Darth Traya to be Force-sensitive, and she began training him in the ways of the Sith at the Trayus Academy on Malachor V. After his true powers and potential were realized, Nihilus, along with fellow Sith student Darth Sion, plotted and turned against their dark mistress Traya. They cast Traya down, stripped her of her power, and expelled her from the Sith Order. Nihilus and Sion had now begun their shadow war against the remnants of the Jedi Order. They hunted Jedi to the brink of extinction. Darth Nihilus ravaged and consumed whole worlds, to feed his insatiable appetite for power, from the bridge of his flagship, the Ravager. Nihilus's powers were so all-consuming that all those who came into contact with the Sith Lord became slaves, mindless servants to his will. Nihilus had learned his terrible powers under the watchful eye of Darth Traya, his hunger for power was what gave birth to his insatiable appetite for all things living, he became so powerful, that he ceased being a man of flesh. His flesh remained, but it was only a shell encasing the dark gaping void, that swallowed all life it came into contact with. Nihilus viewed the galaxy as a tool to feed his insatiable appetitie. He believed that the purpose of all life was to feed his powers. One such servant of Nihilus was Visas Marr, a Miraluka female from Katarr, a planet consumed and destroyed by Nihilus. The Sith Lord sent Visas on a mission to find and bring the last of the Jedi before him, so that he could consume his power and essence. However, this would be the mighty Sith Lord's undoing, for the Jedi exile broke her from Nihilus's bonds, and she turned against her former master. Along with the Exile and Canderous Ordo, she defeated him on board the bridge of the Ravager. After his death, his body dissolved in an aura of dark side energies. The Exile was able to survive the Dark Lords terrible power, for he had previous lost his connection to the force, and this shielded him from certain death at the hands of Nihilus. When Nihilus tried to feed on The Exile, he exhausted himself, leaving him temporarily vulnerable. What happened to Nihilus after his body dissolved is unknown. Whether he was truly gone, or returned again to challenge the Jedi and the Republic, remains a mystery. Besides his terrible powers of hunger, Darth Nihilus was also a master in lightsaber combat, and fought in an elegant yet aggressive one handed style.
