Savage Opress/Legends

"This is not the work of a Sith Lord, or a Jedi... but a reckless, impulsive animal."

- Obi-Wan Kenobi, referring to Savage Opress

Savage Opress was a male Zabrak who was, during the Clone Wars, chosen by the Nightsisters to be transformed by their magic into a warrior with enhanced abilities who would be given to Count Dooku.

Trained by Dooku in the ways of the dark side, he became a Dark Acolyte and part of the Separatist cause, killing Jedi and clone troopers alike. He secretly served the Nightsisters, Mother Talzin and Asajj Ventress, Dooku's former apprentice and assassin who wanted revenge for the Count's betrayal of her. They planned to use Opress to get close to and eliminate Dooku.

Biography
"You have heard of the Sith warrior, Darth Maul?''" "Yes..." "''What if I could provide another of his kind?"

- Mother Talzin and Count Dooku

Darth Sidious, Count Dooku's master, did not trust the growing power of his apprentice's assassin, Asajj Ventress, with the dark side. To prove his complete loyalty to Sidious, Dooku was ordered to eliminate his most trusted and valuable servant. Following her escape from the Count's execution attempt, Ventress fled to her home planet of Dathomir.

She reunited with her fellow Nightsisters and sought vengeance on the Count; however, their efforts to kill him in his palace on Serenno failed. Ventress then planned to get Dooku a replacement apprentice that would serve as his protector but would eventually become his killer. Mother Talzin and the other Nightsisters transformed a Zabrak warrior, Savage Opress, into the ultimate killing machine who would serve as this apprentice. The Nightsisters' first test for Opress was to murder his own brother, Feral. Dooku soon visited the planet and met with Talzin, who introduced him to Opress. The warrior was also the brother of the Zabrak Sith Lord Darth Maul.
