Biography[]
- "From this historic stage, I'll declare Corellia an official member of the Empire."
- ―Darth Decimus
Decimus ascended to the Dark Council in the last months of the Great Galactic War when a Jedi Strike Team killed the Dark Councilor Darth Azamin in his secret stronghold and after, all Jedi of the team died on the ship they used to escape, which exploded due to a mechanical malfunction, probably sabotage. There were rumors that Decimus sold information to the Jedi in order to kill his rival, but these suspicions were never proven.

Darth Decimus on Corellia declaring the planet a member of the Sith Empire
As a member of the Dark Council, Decimus took Krovos as an apprentice after she caught his attention during her final trials on Korriban. In the trials, she convinced her fellow Sith Acolytes to work together rather than alone, resulting in all her fellow students surviving the ordeal.[3]
Decimus was chosen to lead the Imperial invasion of Corellia and conceived a plan that permitted the Empire to take control of the world with no significant resistance. He established a base in the former offices of the planet's Trade Tariff Service, both due to it being rendered obsolete and it being an unlikely military target, converting it into an Imperial Fortress and naming it Decimus's Rise.[5]The Imperial army under his command annihilated most of the Green Jedi. With the Imperial occupation complete, he awarded those involved the Medal of Imperial Glory. Later, the Republic attacked and recaptured Corellia and in the fighting Decimus was killed in the Speaker's Garden of the Corellian Legislature Building.[2]
