Malachor

"What in Malachor are you doing?"

- Cikatro Vizago

Malachor was a hellish wasteland world where the Great Scourge of Malachor took place thousands of years prior to the First Order–Resistance conflict. Its name was sometimes invoked as an expletive to express discontent, and Colonel Meebur Gascon of the Grand Army of the Republic and the crime lord Cikatro Vizago were known to use the expression. Malachor Company was a group of mercenaries named after the hellish world that operated during the Galactic Civil War. The unique crossguard design of Kylo Ren's lightsaber was said to date back to Great Scourge of Malachor.

Behind the scenes
"But there's no way in Malachor that I'm going to lead this pitiful squad on an assault of that landing zone."

- Meebur Gascon utters the first mention of Malachor in canon

In the Star Wars Legends continuity, Malachor was another name for Malachor V, a planet that first appeared in the Legends video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. It became canon when it was mentioned in "Missing in Action," the twelfth episode of the canon animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars' fifth season.
