Darth Bandon

Darth Bandon (—3,956 BBY) was a Sith Lord, apprentice to Darth Malak during the Jedi Civil War.

Biography
Though trained in his early life as a Jedi, Bandon was never at peace with the ideas inherent in the Jedi Code. Bandon relied heavily on his emotions, the rage that flowed through him, and, as a result, fled the Jedi Order to join the Sith Academy on Korriban as the Sith Empire rose to power.

Bandon completely embraced the dark side and this, coupled with his strength in the Force and utter ruthlessness, soon brought him to the attention of Darth Malak. Malak took Bandon as his apprentice, imparting much of his Sith knowledge to him.

Many Jedi soon found themselves on the wrong ends of Bandon's double-bladed lightsaber. Malak was not disappointed with his choice. It was not long before people began to suggest that Bandon would challenge Malak for the right to rule, as was the manner of the Sith.

However, whatever Bandon planned for the future never came to fruition. Following the failure and resultant death of bounty hunter Calo Nord, Malak ordered Bandon to hunt down and detain the reborn Revan.

It is not known on which world Bandon finally confronted Malak's former master, but it is known that neither Bandon nor those who he took to battle with him could defeat Revan and his friends. Bandon was killed, and Malak soon set out to find another, stronger apprentice.

Personality and traits
Bandon was known for his ruthless streak. It was not unknown for him to take the lives of several people and damage equipment for a perceived transgression as minor as walking in his way.

Bandon also wore a custom set of light fiber armor, fitted to his robes. Like most Sith he could use Force lightning and had a red lightsaber.

Behind the scenes
Like the battle against Calo Nord, the planet on which Revan battles Bandon is determined by the order in which the Star Maps are obtained.
