Soa

Soa the Infernal One was an extremely powerful Force-sensitive Rakata who had been imprisoned in the Eternity Vault on Belsavis at least twenty thousand years prior to the Cold War. During a bombing run by the Imperial military, the section of prison in which Soa was imprisoned was discovered.

Biography
During the time of the Infinite Empire, he proclaimed himself ruler of Korriban. Not much else is known other than the fact that he was abnormal compared to others of his race. He was imprisoned by his people in the Eternity Vault for something extremely terrible, although what happened remains unknown.

The conflict between the Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War) and the Galactic Republic during the Cold War unintentionally caused Soa to reawaken. Both sides, somewhat aware of what they had awakened, sent a strike team to eliminate Soa before he regained enough power to become a threat to the entire galaxy. It is unknown which team accomplished their task. The strike team faced Soa's creations and allies, and eventually got to his imprisonment chamber. When they arrived, he finally broke free from his restraints and fought them, taunting them with the fact that he could not be defeated by them. The strike team, however, proved him wrong and finally brought an end to the Infernal One after 20,000 years.

Personality and traits
"They come, marching, believing themselves equal to the army of ancients that chained me. But I am not of their time. Their ancestors called me Soa, wrath and power, and knew fear. For I ruled a thousand worlds, and Korriban was my crown, Korriban my cradle and my testing ground. I have waited twenty thousand years, but I will wait no longer."

- The Infernal One

Soa, like the rest of his race, was arrogant and was shown to be extremely proud of his accomplishments to the point where he would brag about them outright.

Powers and abilities
The Infernal One was extremely gifted in use of the Force. An example of this is how he is easily able to send someone flying in the air and control their path at will, and configure mind traps to instantly trap an opponent. He was also known to use the rare variant of force lightning called Ball Lightning.

Behind the scenes
Soa appears in the BioWare MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic, as the target of the Eternity Vault Operation.
