Exar Kun



When  most people think about Sith(if they know about them).They imagine scary dark robed figures or unique armoured warriors wielding blood red bladed Lightsaber, physically Exar Kun wasn't like this.

To most people who know of him he appears to be some sort of lightly armoured Jedi, but don't be fooled by appearances.4400 years ago he almost conquered the republic and have killed the Supreme Chancellor and the Jedi Grandmaster.

Even if people don't remember this, he also known for being the inventor of the first Double-bladed Lightsaber, now that's remembered.

History:

Exar Kun was born on Dantooine around 4400 years before the battle of Yavin, he was one of three Padawan's of Jedi master Vodo-Siosk Baas. As a young man he would constantly study the Sith so if they ever returned he could face them.

After he believed he learned everything from Vodo-Siosk Baas he left to learn more of the Sith, slowly falling to the Dark side. Eventually this led him going to Onderon to find the Tomb of the last known Sith lord Freedon Nadd.

Their he meet the ghost of the ancient Sith lord who managed to seduce him to the dark side after exposing him to his Sith artefacts. Freedon Nadd ordered his new apprentice to go to Yavin to learn more of the Sith.

He went to Yavin where he tamed the Massassi warriors and cut off his connection to Nadd, he continually studied Sith knowledge while also amassing many followers through secret contact.

He was then contacted by Qel-Droma (who was actually sent to spy the new Sith order) and begged him to be his apprentice, which he allowed. He then got an alliance with the Mandalorian's and initiated his plan.

Going to Corusaunt he captured the Senate and forced the Chancellor to speak his message before killing him. As he went out of the building where he faced his old master Vodo-Siosk Baas, after an intense battle he killed his old master with his new Double-bladed Lightsaber.

He then went with his forces to Ossus where they killed many of the Jedi their and forced the Jedi to retreat. However most of his followers were killed by the Republic fleet and he had to flee back to Yavin.

With only his Massassi warriors, some surviving followers and Qel-Droma he prepared to fight the Jedi to death. As the Republic and Jedi invaded Yavin a large battle took place where most of his forces died.

At the last minute Qel-Droma killed him before he could escape on the Yavin temple and stole his Lightsaber and it's blueprints, ending the Sith lord for good.

Legacy:

His signature weapon, the Double-bladed Lightsaber would be used by both future Jedi and Sith long after he died, evolving into more variants.

He would also be remembered by the republic as a failed conquer, when Emperor Palpatine rose to power after order 66 he used Exar Kun to solidified that the Jedi were trying to conquer the republic.

Notes:

he is based on the legends character of the same name
