Unidentified Twi'lek Sith

"Back! Only death lies this way!"

- Kol Skywalker

This individual, a male Twi'lek Sith, was a member of the One Sith faction during the Sith-Imperial War, a cooperative effort by the One Sith and Roan Fel's Galactic Empire to eliminate the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, the dominant galactic government of the period. Darth Krayt, the Dark Lord of the Sith and leader of the One Sith, organized an army of many Sith Lords and chose his Hand, Darth Nihl, to lead it in an assault on the Jedi Academy on the planet Ossus in 130 ABY, bent on purging it of all Jedi.

Emperor Fel sent a number of troops to the Academy in a peaceful and diplomatic gesture to the Jedi, but Krayt pulled strings in the Moff Council and undermined this cause, adding the Imperial force to his own. During the fighting, the Jedi Grand Master, Kol Skywalker, made a last stand so that a shuttle carrying younglings and his own son could escape the carnage. He killed many of the opposing force single-handedly and fought above their piled bodies. This Twi'lek Sith's hand was cut off by the man and he died of his injury. When Skywalker was finally brought down by Nihl, his body landed near this Twi'lek's. The two forces successfully sterilized the Academy and scattered the New Jedi Order.

Biography
This Twi'lek joined the One Sith sometime before or during the Sith-Imperial War, which caused most of the Galactic Alliance to dissolve and forced the New Jedi Order into exile on the planet Ossus, refusing to be alligned with an Empire allied with Sith. He was chosen to be part of an attack on the Jedi Temple there, the last major Jedi stronghold in the galaxy after the Temple on the galactic capital, planet Coruscant, fell to Sith. Two days after the Coruscant Temple became the Sith Temple and the war had ended, in 130 ABY, Roan Fel, the Galactic Emperor and leader of the Fel Empire, organized a diplomatic meeting with the Jedi, sending Grand Admiral Rulf Yage to Ossus with orders not to engage in hostilities but rather to conduct peace talks with the Jedi to get them on his side. However, Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Krayt, the leader of the One Sith, contacted Grand Admiral Morlish Veed through his agent Darth Maladi, ordering him to have Yage attack the Temple, with assistance from his Sith force, lead by his Hand, Darth Nihl. Veed did so and the Jedi Temple was put under siege.

This Sith was among the force that attacked the Temple, as planned. There, the Sith and Stormtroopers killed about half of the Jedi and forced the rest into exile. They killed a large number of Yuuzhan Vong shapers as well, there to complete the Ossus Project, an effort to use Vong terraforming biotechnology to restore the surface of Ossus which had been scared by war. One group that was being forced out during the fighting was a group of younglings being protected by Grand Master Kol Skywalker and Jedi Master Wolf Sazen, as well as their Padawans. The two Masters ordered their students, Shado Vao and Kol's son Cade, to take the younglings to safety aboard a shuttle so they could leave the planet. Kol made a last stand so they could take off and he killed several Sith, as well as many stormtroopers, including this one. This Twi'lek's arm was severed and he died of his injury. Kol was soon killed by Nihl, after buying enough time for the shuttle leave the Temple, and his body rested near this Sith's corpse.

Behind the scenes
This Twi'lek Sith appeared in the first issue of the comic book series Star Wars: Legacy. He was killed in the same panel where he was first seen but later his head was shown beside Kol Skywalker's fallen body.

This character's death sequence is another sighting of blood from a lightsaber-inflicted wound. When lightsabers cut through flesh, they instantly cauterize the wound, leaving no time for any blood to escape the person's body. This was first seen in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope when Obi-Wan Kenobi, a Jedi in exile, cut off the arm of Ponda Baba, a smuggler, in Chalmun's Cantina.
