Trilla Suduri

"I've carried so much hate for you."

- Trilla Suduri, to Cere Junda

Trilla Suduri, also known as the Second Sister, was a human female who served during the reign of the Galactic Empire as an Inquisitor under Darth Vader. Before her fall to the dark side, Suduri was the Padawan of Jedi Knight Cere Junda during the Clone Wars. After she and her master escaped the execution of Order 66, Junda was captured early into the Jedi Purge and exposed the hidden location of Suduri and some younglings while under torture. Following her own capture, Suduri was also tortured and eventually fell to the Dark Side, becoming a member of the Inquisitorius and taking the title of the Second Sister.

Early during the Empire's reign, she traveled to the planet Ontotho to investigate reports of Jedi activity, only to find a connection to an ancient temple instead. She was also present at the Inquisitorius Headquarters along with The Grand Inquisitor, Fifth Brother, Seventh Sister, Eighth Brother, a female Inquisitor, and a Twi'lek Inquisitor after a mission to hunt down Eeth Koth.

In 14 BBY, the Second Sister traveled to the planet Bracca alongside the Ninth Sister to investigate reports of Jedi activity. After killing a member of the Scrapper Guild, the hidden Jedi, Cal Kestis, revealed himself, and narrowly escaped the Second Sister with the help of Junda. The Second Sister later encountered Kestis yet again on Zeffo where she revealed that she was the apprentice of Junda, and even warned Cal she was not to be trusted. Later, she arrived on Bogano, where Kestis had gone to get the Holocron that contained a list of force-sensitives across the Galaxy. When Kestis was bombarded with her memories from her Lightsaber, The Second Sister escaped Bogano another with the Holocron.

When Kestis and Junda traveled to the planet Nur, the location of Fortress Inquisitorius, the Second Sister ambushed Cal and the two had a final duel, which ultimately resulted in the Jedi defeating her. She was then approached by Junda, who was convinced that she could change. However, they were interrupted by the arrival of Darth Vader, which terrified the redeemed Suduri, as she realized that she had failed Vader, and what the price of that failure would be. Knowing that the Sith Lord was going to kill her, she implored Junda and Kestis to avenge her before Vader cut her down with his lightsaber.

Capture and Fall
"She was weak. Cracked in an Imperial torture chair. Surrendered the location of her naïve Padawan. They would never have found me&hellip;"

- Second Sister discusses her perspective on Cere Junda's actions to Cal Kestis

Before the end of the Clone Wars, Trilla Suduri was taken as a Padawan by Jedi Knight Cere Junda. The pair would serve until the end of the war, and when the Jedi Order was wiped out by Order 66, they escaped along with a group of younglings. Suduri and her master's luck would quickly run out as their hiding place was discovered by an Imperial patrol soon after the start of the Jedi Purge. During the Empire's attack, Suduri insisted that she and her master should stick together, but Junda decided to attempt to lead the Imperials away from their position. As her master ran to confront the enemy, Suduri begged her not to leave them. After Junda left, Suduri comforted one of the younglings.

While Junda would succeed in leading the Imperials away, she would eventually be captured. During her imprisonment at Fortress Inquisitorius on Nur, Junda was subject to torture by her captors and would eventually reveal the location of Suduri and the younglings. Suduri would soon be captured and subject to the same torture as her master. Gradually, the torture, along with her master's betrayal, wore Suduri down and she succumbed to the dark side, becoming an Inquisitor known as the Second Sister. When Junda witnessed her former Padawan in Imperial garb, she flew into a rage and used the dark side to kill everyone in the room but the Second Sister, escaping after.

At some point, the Second Sister was present at the Inquisitorius Headquarters alongside the Grand Inquisitor, Seventh Sister, Fifth Brother, Eighth Brother, a female Inquisitor and a Twi'lek Inquisitor. She stood beside a table where two of the Inquisitors toasted with Dust Juice to the death of Eeth Koth during their recent mission as they began discussing what Darth Vader would do after all the Jedi were dead.

Joining the battle
"The planet has been pacified, but for some reason there's one last pocket of resistance in this region. Nothing we can't handle, ma'am." "You will refer to me as Inquisitor. And if you could handle yourself, commander, I wouldn't be here."

- Commander Atty reports to the Second Sister as she joins the fight

At some point, the Second Sister, alongside a number of Purge Troopers, travelled to the world of Ontotho after rumors of the presence of a Jedi there arose. Upon her arrival in the midst of a battle, she demanded a report of the conflict, yet her identity was questioned by Stormtrooper Commander Atty, to which she told him she was a person who did not ask things twice. Despite Atty insisting that they had the situation under control, the Second Sister merely informed him that she would not be there if he was correct, and addressed the rumors that had brought her there, rumors of an unusual foe.

Atty once again dismissed the idea, saying that a trooper had thought he had seen a lightsaber yet since the trooper had died days ago, the story had taken a mind of its own. The Second Sister did not share Atty's view of the situation, and informed him that she wished to meet their enemy herself, ordering Atty to have his men cease fire, before surging forwards with her Purge Troopers. They were fired upon, prompting the Second Sister to ignite her double-bladed spinning lightsaber to repel enemy fire, before ordering her Purge Troopers to return fire, spread out, and capture her one of the attackers alive.

The fake Jedi
"A blaster? You're no Jedi! Where did you get that lightsaber, woman?"

- The Second Sister questions her opponent

The Second Sister soon noticed that the enemy had stopped firing, and when questioned by a Purge Trooper on whether they should pursue, the Inquisitor dismissed the idea, saying she thinks that their foe would come to them instead. The Second Sister then moved again, noticing an individual wielding a lightsaber. She ordered her troops to secure the area, and declared that the individual was her target, before attacking. The Second Sister then engaged in a lightsaber battle against an apparent Jedi. As they fought, the Second Sister quickly gained the upper hand in the fight, even mocking her adversary by calling her too slow and too soft.

Forcing her opponent back into a corner, the Second Sister told her that the Force had abandoned her, only for her opponent to attack her with a Blaster, which was easily deflected off the Second Sisters armour, yet made the Inquisitor realize that the old woman was no Jedi. The Second Sister then slashed our with her lightsaber, and severed the woman's arm, before torturing her, demanding to know where an Insurgent like her had got a lightsaber. The woman revealed the weapon was taken from a temple, but before the Second Sister could question her prey further, she was interrupted by a Purge Trooper, who reported that the area was secure per their orders, as the Insurgent Cell was smaller than expected. Not getting any further information from the old woman, who declared they would never find the temple, the Second Sister killed her, and ordered that any other insurgents found be brought to her, and that she would find the temple herself.

Investigating the temple
"It appears that there are no survivors left, Inquisitor. We found nothing of value." "No. You didn't look hard enough&hellip;"

- A Purge Trooper and the Second Sister

The Second Sister later saw to the attack on a village during her search for the temple. When she arrived at the village, she questioned the Purge Trooper Captain on whether the people of the village were still fighting back. When the Captain confirmed that they were, the Second Sister informed him that that meant that they knew something, and was keeping it from them. When the Captain declared that they had found nothing, the Second Sister merely used the Force to expose a stairway leading underground, musing that they just didn't look hard enough.

Arriving at the entrance of the temple, the Second Sister told her troopers that only two of them would accompany her. As they entered, she questioned what the locals had been keeping from them in the temple. She began examining the writing on the walls when one of the Purge Troopers identified a droid in the rubble. The Second Sister reactivated it and it continued a sentence stating that someone had gotten everyone killed. When she asked who it was talking about, it said the Jedi had caused all of it.

First encounter on Bracca
"We seek a dangerous fugitive. This is no common anarchist but a devotee to the treasonous Jedi Order. [&hellip;] Turn yourself in or everyone present shall face summary execution."

- The Second Sister confronts the scrappers

In 14 BBY, the Second Sister traveled to planet Bracca with the Ninth Sister and some Purge Troopers in search for a possible Jedi. Halting a train carrying members of the Scrapper Guild, she confronted the passengers. The Second Sister asked told them of the Jedi fugitive and threatened the execution of the whole group if the Jedi was not turned over. As the Purge Troopers took aim at the scrappers, an Abednedo named Prauf defiantly spoke out, shaming the Empire as a whole for overworking the Scrapper Guild. The Second Sister then killed Prauf, and his friend reacted by trying to cut her down with his lightsaber, revealing himself as the Jedi. She blocked Kestis' attack and lifted him with the Force, throwing him over to the Ninth Sister. The Ninth Sister then dropped him off the ledge.

The Jedi survived the fall, landing onto a train. While he fought his way towards the front carriage, Cere Junda arrived aboard the Stinger Mantis to extract him. When the Jedi attempted to board the Mantis, the Second Sister shot at the ship from her TIE/IN interceptor. The Jedi fell onto a platform, where the Second Sister then landed her TIE to confront him. From his stance, she identified that he had underwent training and questioned his master. The two briefly fought, until the Mantis returned, shooting at them and separating the two. The Jedi limped onto the ship as Junda shot at the Second Sister until the door closed. The Second Sister then latched onto the cockpit window and used the Force to alter the steering. Junda, however, took back control of this and the Second Sister was shaken off the window, allowing the Mantis to escape.

Duel on Zeffo
"Cal Kestis. How predictable. Oh yes, I know your name&hellip; Your past&hellip; And most importantly&hellip; about Cordova."

- The Second Sister confronts Cal Kestis

Since her first encounter with the Jedi, the Second Sister discovered him to be Cal Kestis, the apprentice of Jaro Tapal. She also learned that his intentions were now linked with Junda's master, Eno Cordova, and his holocron containing the locations of Force-sensitive children. After Kestis fought on Kashyyyk with Saw Gerrera's insurgent force, the Partisans. When the Empire took back the Imperial Refinery there, Gerrera retreated, but the Second Sister was able to confront one of his insurgents. She questioned the insurgent, before killing her. Prior to Kashyyyk, Kestis was investigating ancient ruins on the planet Zeffo, which prompted the Empire to reinstate its excavations there. The Second Sister predicted Kestis would return to find out more, and awaited his arrival near one of the Tomb of Miktrull.

When Kestis found her, the Second Sister revealed her knowledge of his and his intentions, asking where Cordova's holocron was. The pair initiated a duel that ended in the Second Sister pushing him to the ground. Cal's droid, BD-1, then activated a shield that separated the two. The Second Sister commended his learning, comparing him to Junda's last apprentice (herself). After talking more of Junda and her apprentice, she removed her helmet, revealing that she was that apprentice. Kestis wished to resist her manipulation, but the Second Sister coined the possibility of Junda selling him out like she did to her and told him that Junda had used the Dark Side. Continuing to predict Junda's betrayal of him, the Second Sister also brought up Cal's master, Tapal, and proceeded to anger Kestis before departing the scene.

As Kestis continued towards the Tomb of Miktrull, he attempted to contact Junda when the Second Sister sliced and rerouted his communications, claiming that she had perfected all of Junda's techniques. She claimed that she had acquired an artifact at the rear of the tomb, and taunted Kestis, speculating Cordova's intentions with the Zeffo. As she continued to taunt him, she sent Purge Troopers after Kestis, all of which he defeated. After Kestis raised the tomb from the floor of a chamber and examined it, the Second Sister thanked him for clearing the way, revealing that she had deceived him to find the tomb. Kestis has BD-1 reverse her slicing of his comms and encrypt it.

Redemption and death
"Avenge us."

- Trilla Suduri's last words

After Kestis recovered the key to recovering the holocron, he traveled to its location on the planet Bogano. The Second Sister, however, found him there at the holocrons vault. After Kestis uncovered the holocron, she confronted him. In their exchange of words, Kestis told the Second Sister that she made a mistake not killing him on Bracca. She bragged that she had only wagered him against finding the holocron and winning the favor of the Emperor. After she proceeded to taunt him, the two fought each other. During their duel, Kestis was able to push the Second Sister to the ground and take her lightsaber. The lightsaber, though, caused him to view the Second Sister's past, and she grabbed the holocron and fled.

The Second Sister took the holocron to Fortress Inquisitorius. Junda knew she would take it there and she and her crew traveled to Nur to retrieve the holocron. The Stinger Mantis was able to pass the Imperial blockade unnoticed and Kestis and Junda used escape pods to reach the surface, infiltrating the fortress and killing many troops. As Kestis made it to the interrogation room to take back the holocron, the Second Sister ambushed him, and the pair fought once again. Kestis said that he saw the suffering she had been through, telling her it was not to late to be redeemed. The Second Sister claimed the pain made her stronger and taunted him with the holocron.

As the two continued to fight, Kestis disarmed the Second Sister, leaving her vulnerable. Junda then arrived and approached the Second Sister, wishing to redeem her old Padawan, although the Inquisitor insisted that it was too late. Junda apologized to her for all of the pain she had caused her. Feeling ashamed, the Second Sister told her how much hate she carried against her, and the Inquisitor redeemed herself when she felt touched by her master's words. Before she could forgive her, she sensed the arrival of Darth Vader, who used the Force to hold her. Unable to break free, she told Junda and Kestis to avenge her and all the other Jedi that were victims to the purge. Vader, who was disappointed in the Second Sister's inability to complete her mission in hunting Kestis, activated his lightsaber and executed her.

Personality and traits
"You're a monster." "I am what Cere made me."

- Cal Kestis and the Second Sister

A member of the deadly Inquisitorius, the Second Sister was ambitious and cruel, relishing in hunting down all Force-sensitive survivors for the Galactic Empire. She was exceptionally cunning and intelligent individual. During her time as a Padawan, Trilla cared for the younglings under her protection. However, after her torture and transformation into the Second Sister, Trilla's personality became twisted. Her sociopathic tendencies allowed her to patiently manipulate almost any adversary into revealing their weakness and fears. She was also known to sadistically toy with her opponents.

Powers and abilities
"There is no technique Cere has that I haven't perfected."

- The Second Sister

The Second Sister was an expert lightsaber duelist and adept with the dark side of the Force. Her greatest weapon was her preternatural ability to predict the behavior of her prey. During her time as Cere Junda's padawan, the Second Sister was taught some slicing.

Equipment
The Second Sister was equipped with a helmet and wore a personalized version of the standard gray and black Inquisitor attire. She also had a black cape with an Imperial crest in white on the shoulder portions. She was armed with a double-bladed spinning lightsaber. After losing her lightsaber to Cal Kestis after their second encounter, the Second Sister replaced it with an identical one.
