Darth Arho

"The war is over. The Republic won. If we keep fighting, you will destroy us. I accept this. Darth Arho does not. He is a member of the Dark Council, but he is a thug. The Council needs someone more... progressive... if the Empire is to survive."

- Darth Malgus contrasts himself with Darth Arho to the Republic commanders on Ilum, while planning to destroy him.

Darth Arho was a male Human Dark Lord of the Sith and a Dark Councilor of the resurgent Sith Empire. His strong frame, added to his bald head and dark-skin, gave him an intimidating appearance.

Biography
As a Sith Lord, he was extremely ruthless and when he journeyed to Ilum during the Cold War he went with the single goal of obliterating his enemies: the Jedi, and the Republic His tenure on the Dark Council was brief but memorable, ascending to the Dark Council after the death of Darth Baras. The blows struck against the Sith Emperor by the Jedi Order only drove Darth Arho to push even harder for the final defeat of the Republic.

Darth Arho stayed away from the powerplays of other Dark Councilors and his warlike personality was often used by Councilors against one another. He proved himself on Ilum to be a capable commander, however, the Dark Council disapproved of his willingness to win at all costs. When Darth Malgus declared himself the new Sith Emperor, and also launched an invasion on Ilum, Darth Arho was part of the Dark Council strikeforce sent to defeat Malgus.

After a sustained battle, with both the Republic and Malgus, Darth Arho was forced into the heart of the planet by the Repulic forces. In his final confrontation with the Republic Arho had three Sith to back him up. However, he killed one of these Sith by choking him as a show of power. After a fierce battle Darth Arho was defeated and killed by the combined forces of the Republic.
