Quillan (Sith)

Quillan, a male Human Sith, was the twin brother of Dromika and one of the youngest children of Sith Lord Chagras and the younger siblings of Arkadia Calimondra. During the New Sith Wars, Byllura was controlled by the Chagras Hegemony. Following the death of Chagras, the ruler of the hegemony, Byllura became the capital of the Dyarchy and was governed by the Sith Lord twins Dromika and Quillan with Saaj Calician serving as its Regent. Their reign ended in 1,032 BBY when Byllura fell to the forces of the Arkadianate.

Early life
Quillan with his twin sister Dromika were the youngest children of the Sith Lord Chagras, ruler of the Sith realm known as the Chagras Hegemony during the New Sith Wars. In 1,040 BBY, Chagras died which sparked a second series of clan warfare among the Sith clan ruling the Grumani Sector. At that period, Quillan and Dromika were only five years old. They became rulers of a rump state known as the Dyarchy which was governed on their behalf by their Regent Saaj Calician. They lived on the planet Byllura, residing on a mesa situated above the capital city of Hestobyll.

During his childhood, Quillan specialized in using the Force to manipulate their surrounding environment, making all other sentient beings and droids de-facto extensions of their will. With the assistance of Calician, Quillan and Dromika employed a network of Celegians to transmit mental suggestions which made the population of Byllura operate as a single living organism. This feat was unparalled elsewhere within the Grumani Sector since even Sith Lord Daiman, who regarded himself as the omnipresent Creator of the universe, was unable to exert the same level of control over his own subjects.

To maintain their control over the Dyarchy, Calician employed a force of red-clad Unifiers to enforce compliance among the population by using Force persuasion. During their rule, they stayed within their mesa as Quillan suffered from an powerful farsight ability while he was taken care of by Dromika, Calician, and a large retinue of servant droids. Quillan's Force perceptions were so strong that all other sentient beings had to address them from a dais situated at some distance from their throne, which consisted of a pile of orange pillows. Since Quillan perceived living beings as shining radiantly through the Force which blinded his physicial senses, only servant droids were allowed to physically approach the twins.

Their Regent Calician intended to use the twin siblings' mental Force powers to further his own grandeous ambitions of galactic domination. Five years before the fall of the Dyarchy in 1,032 BBY, Calician himself commissioned the creation of a fleet of fourteen large battlecruisers with a single Force-sensitive Celegian onboard each one that would receive orders directly from Byllura itself. These battleships were constructed within hidden hangars beneath the capital Hestobyll's large reflection pools. By 1,032 BBY, this fleet was ready for operations and Calician intended to use them to invade the Daimanate's rearward systems as his first step towards galactic domination.

The Jedi Intruder
Following the Battle of Gazzari, the Jedi Knight Kerra Holt along with the mercenary Jarrow Rusher and several refugee children whom she had rescued on Gazzari travelled on the Diligence to Byllura, while enroute to the Galactic Republic. Quillan immediately sense Kerra's presence through the Force and ordered Calician to monitor the newcomers and include them. Calician ordered the Celegian known as "One" to contact the orbital defense stations and to report the appearance of any strangers immediately. The Diligence was allowed to dock at a landing platform in Hestobyll's spaceport. Upon arrival, "One" directed people to move the refugees into a center where they would then be assigned living quarters and then "integrated" into the population.

Kerra quickly sensed that the entire population of Byllura was being controlled by an unknown force (revealed to be the Celegian "One") through Force Persuasion, noting that everyone moved by one accord. In an attempt to save two of charges the Sullustan Tan Tengo and the Duros Beadle Lubboon from being forcibly "integrated" into Dyarchy subjects, Kerra quickly started a fight with several Unifiers who were mounted on speeder bikes. Meanwhile, Jarrow and the rest of Rusher's Brigade took on a party of Unifiers attempting to seize control of the Diligence. During the ensuing Battle of Byllura, Kerra pursued Tan and Beadle's captors through the streets of Hestoybyll across the bay into the mesa, where the Force presence controlling the people of Byllura was emanating from. Kerra succeeded in infiltrating The Loft through the airspeeder hangar bay, fighting off several Unifiers along the way.

Quillan and Dromika also sensed Kerra's presence through the Force and forced Calician to destroy the Jedi intruder. Kerra by then had realized that the Sith were using Celegians to control the populace through mental suggestions. She infiltrated the chamber where the Celegian "One" was being housed within a large transparisteel cylinder at the center of the room. Kerra was able to communicate with "One" and convince him to work against his Sith overlords by sending confusing signals to the other Celegians and their charges. She commanded him to order the guards to return to their barracks and then to command another guard to bring the prisoners Tan and Beaddle to the hangar bay. Finally, she order "One" to order the people of Hestobyll to return to their homes and to stop sending messages for his Sith overlords.

Using mental suggestions, Quillan and Dromika ordered the Krevakii Regent Calician to fight with Kerra, leading to a brief lightsaber duel. Calician was able to end the duel by luring her into a turbolift, under the pretext of rescuing her two young charges. Upon arriving up the top floor of the Loft, the twins used mental suggestions to order their nanny droids to attack Kerra, hurtling themselves at the Jedi woman. Kerra entered the half-black dome housing their throne room and confronted the twins. While she initially mistook them for captives, she quickly realized they were the focus of the dark side energy she had felt. They were joined by Calician who introduced Kerra to the Sith twins, explaining their philosphy of including all life under their control. The Regent tried to coerce Kerra into joining the Dyarchy by threatening her with death.

The End of the Dyarchy
During the Battle of Byllura, their older sibling Sith Lord Arkadia came into the Dyarchy and annexed it. In the aftermath of the battle, Quillan was captured and his fate is unknown.

Personality and Traits
Quillan held a powerful affinity with the Force, holding a powerful farsight ability that allowed him to accurately see the future in great detail. However, due to this ability he suffered from fever, headaches and the need for everyone around him to wear dark colors in order to keep him from hurting. As with the Sith Lord Odion, Quillan's had hypersensitive Force perceptions which caused all other sentient beings shine brightly through the Force from his perspective. He spent most if not all of his life on Byllura kept away from everything that could harm him including colors. Whenever he was confronted by something new, Quillan would often go into a corner and enter a fetal position while Dromika tried to calm him down.

Quillan and his twin sister Dromika regarded all other agencies outside themselves including both sentient beings and droids as aspects. While the twins were separated physically in body, they were conjoined through the Force which made them one inseparable being. Dromika was the only person able to contact him since she only she shared the same Force plane that he dwelled within According to Regent Calician, this Force bond was so strong that no form of science or Sith alchemy could separate them. Calician also recalled that Quillan had never spoken a word prior to the Battle of Byllura when he was around fourteen years old.

Powers and Abilities
Quillan lived entirely within his expansive mind, preferring to use mental Force suggestions to manipulate other sentient beings into doing his will. Due to his mind powers, Quillan succeeded in controlling the minds of all the inhabitants of Byllura, making the planet's population almost like a single-celled organism. He also had a natural talent of far-seeing into the future.

Unlike most other Sith however, Quillan and his twin sister Dromika lacked any discernible combat skills since they preferred to act through their environment, using other beings as extensions of their will. Quillan had lived in the Loft for much of his life and had never engaged in physical exercise or labor. Even as a teenager, Quillan always donned pyjamas and rarely left his throneroom. In terms of physicial appearance, Quillan was also bald and had dark, heavy, and saggy eyes.
