Unidentified Sith Lord (Darth Bane's first Ruusan victim)

"Lord Bane&hellip; Kaan told us&hellip; you were dead."

- The Sith Lord, to Darth Bane

A Human male served as a Sith Lord in Dark Lord of the Sith Skere Kaan's Brotherhood of Darkness during the final years of the New Sith Wars. In 1,002 BBY the man underwent training at the Sith Academy on the planet Korriban, and was promoted with his fellow students to the rank of Sith Lord in 1,000 BBY. While he was on the planet Ruusan, the man fought during the fifth battle of the Ruusan campaign and was heavily wounded after the forces of the Army of Light defeated the Sith. The Sith Lord Darth Bane, who did not participate in the battle, found the man dying and being comforted by the native Bouncers. After speaking with Bane about the preceding skrimish and the status of the Sith Order, Bane killed the man by using his boot to crush the man's skull against the rocks he was propped up on.

Powers and abilities
While the Sith Lord was sensitive to the Force, he was one of the Korriban Sith Academy's lesser apprentices. However, he was still able to survive the fifth battle between the forces of the Brotherhood of Darkness and the Army of Light.

Behind the scenes
The Sith Lord was introduced in the second issue of the Star Wars: Jedi vs. Sith comic miniseries, written by Darko Macan. He was penciled in the comic by Ramón F. Bachs. The character was later featured in Drew Karpyshyn's novel Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, which expounded on the background of the titular character. The events of the Sith Lord's death at Bane's hands were identical in the comic and the novel. However, the novel presented a few differences, such as the length of the conversation between the Sith and Bane. Also, the novel noted that the man's wound was visible to Bane, whereas the injury was not visible in the comic book.
