Vilia Calimondra

Vilia Calimondra was a female Human Sith Lord who lived during the Republic Dark Age.

Biography
Calimondra married multiple times, aquiring large territories in the Grumani sector and giving birth to seven children. However, all of her children made claims to become Calimondra's heir, so in order to decided which one would inherit her empire, she organized a contest, which she called the Charge Matrica, challenging her children to expand her territories. However, her daughter Xelian soon declared war on her son Chagras, resulting in all of her children waging war against each other. Eventually, only Chagras was left, and Calimondra made him her heir. However, at some point afterwards, Chagras was killed, so Calimondra initiated a second Charge Matrica, pitting her grandchildren against each other to fight for the right to become her heir.

In c. 1,032 BBY, Calimondra ordered her grandchildren Daiman and Odion to attack the holdings of the Quermian Sith Lord Ayanos Bactra, an old family friend whom Calimondra believed had outlived his usefulness to them. Calimondra subsequently held a meeting with her grandchildren and divided among them various corporations that Bactra had formerly controlled. Around this time Calimondra's granddaughter Arkadia Calimondra schemed to have her grandmother murdered, because she belived that Vilia was responsible for the death of her father, Chagras. However, Narsk Ka'hane, a Bothan spy who worked for Vilia, was able to thwart Arkadia's plot.
