Sora Bulq/Legends

Sora Bulq (&mdash; 19 BBY) was a Weequay Jedi Master, originally from Ruul, the moon of Sriluur, during the latter years of the Galactic Republic. An accomplished Vaapad fighter, Bulq was a colleague of Mace Windu and one of the Jedi Order's greatest lightsaber combat instructors.

Bulq was among the 200 Jedi that accompanied Windu to Geonosis, as were many of his current and former students. Although many Jedi, including his own padawan, Galdos Stouff, were killed during the initial skirmish in the Geonosian execution arena, Bulq was among those who survived to take part in the first major conflict of the Clone Wars. After the battle was over, Bulq was listed amongst the dead, it being believed that he had died in the gunship explosion that claimed the life of Eeth Koth.

Bulq, however, was not dead, merely disillusioned with the role of the Jedi. He proceeded to abandon the Jedi Order. Shortly after the Battle of Geonosis, Bulq and Master Tholme faced Count Dooku on Bakura, but Bulq, already close to the Dark Side through his uncontrolled use of Vaapad, was seduced by the charismatic Count.

On Ruul, Sora Bulq called a meeting of the Jedi dissidents refusing to fight in the so-called Clone Wars. Secretly, he hired the dark assassin Asajj Ventress to kill the Jedi, but Mace Windu was able to uncover Bulq's treachery and drove the assassin away.

During the Clone Wars, Bulq served as Count Dooku's right-hand-man. Quinlan Vos was led to believe Sora Bulq was the second Sith Lord, after apparently joining forces with Darth Tyranus. On Saleucami, Sora Bulq faced and slew Thisspiasian Jedi Master Oppo Rancisis in combat. Bulq's old friend Tholme also confronted him, but escaped the battle to fight another day. In a final confrontation of Saleucami, Tholme and Quinlan faced Bulq and his right hand man Skorr. In the vicious battle that followed Sora injured Tholme in a duel, while Quinlan killed Skorr. Vos saved the injured Tholme from Sora, before crossing blades with the legendary former lightsaber instructer. Vos managed to silence his inner demons & slay Sora.

Sora Bulq wielded two lightsabers in battle; a regular weapon and a short-bladed version.
