Savage Opress/Legends

"This is not the work of a Sith Lord, or a Jedi... but a reckless, impulsive animal."

- Obi-Wan Kenobi, referring to Savage Opress

Savage Opress was a male Zabrak warrior who was recruited by Count Dooku during the Clone Wars. Trained by Dooku in the ways of the dark side, he became a Dark Acolyte and part of the Separatist cause, killing Jedi and clone troopers alike.

Origins
"He certainly is a sight to behold.''" "The fiercest of his kind, my lord. He shall serve you well." "''Yes&hellip;he shall."

- Count Dooku and Talzin

During the Clone Wars, Asajj Ventress found disfavor with Count Dooku and fled to her home planet of Dathomir. She then planned to get Dooku an apprentice that she would secretly control. Dooku soon visited the planet and met an intermediary, the Dathomiri witch, Mother Talzin, who introduced him to Opress. The warrior was said to be related to Zabrak Sith Lord Darth Maul which was something Dooku couldn't resist.

Mission to Devaron
Soon after becoming Dooku's apprentice, Savage was sent along with Separatist forces to Devaron. Savage quickly disposed of the clones, paying no mind to the battle droids, and eventually dueled and murdered the Jedi Master who had been in command of the clones at the time.

Growing Stronger
The Jedi Master's body was taken, by the Delta Squad, to Kamino and the Jedi then learned of the new Dark Jedi. Dooku, realizing his new padawan's potential, began training Savage to weild a double-bladed lightsaber, similar to his brother's. Soon after that, Dooku sent Savage to the planet Toydaria. Savage tore through the security, both Toydarians and droids alike. He was able to infiltrate one of Toydaria's facilities and eventually ran into the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. The lightsabers clashed and Savage was able to hold his own, at one point viciously sending the pair flying across the room.
