Who is your favorite Sith?
Darth Nihilus
Heck Yeah!
Cool
Revan
Definitely Darth Nihilus, not only does he have a cool design but he is also insanely skilled
Darth Nihilus is a basically a Force Wraith like The Ringwraiths from the Lord of the rings.
I never thought of him that way but he is isn’t he? Huh
My thoughts exactly 💯
And, like Ungoliant from The Silmarillion.
@@davidirizarry6216 true. The Mandalorian did fought a giant alien Ice Spider while he was trying to save Grogu.
@@jessemillan1385
That and the reason she’s like Darth Nihilus is cause she devours energy/light.
in some ways, nihilus might be 1 of the more frightening siths considering he very much lived up to his namesake of annihilate and nihilist. all he truly cared about was bringing an end to all existence since he saw no purpose in living and truly did want death. you know a sith is deranged when their only desire is to kill as much as he could until he either did die or until there was nothing left for him to devour
Which is why it doesn't make sense for him to overthrow Treya. She was the closest any sith, jedi, or grey has ever come to destroying the force itself, and had he stuck with her, as an apprentice, they may have succeeded.
Missing the part with Darth Vitiate in unknown space, it's what jumpstarted their fall to the dark side. And some elements of the Old Republic Revan novel and maybe SWTOR if your trying to be a completionist and you count it as filler content.
One point missing is that Malek and Revan travelled into unknown space and found Darth Vitiate. He was the one tipped them to dark side and they return as Sith. The Star forge was vitiates plan to weaken the republic
Also he knew the Jedi strike team boarded Revan's ship which is why he chose that moment to betray Revan
I just commented the same thing!! Read the novel Revan for this everyone, highly recommend !
You are missing an incredibly huge and key part of Malak & Revans story in here; Missing the whole part about Revan and Malak meeting Darth Vitiate in their journeys in the outer rim. Read the novel Revan for all info on this 👍
This is very true. Dude decimated
i was about to say
Yeah, that novel gets a bad rap but it's still Legends canon.
I loathed that book. I’m glad there are those that enjoyed it. I didn’t like the direction it took the characters (Revan never would have been mind controlled etc).
He already mentioned it in his video on darth revan
The entire Knights of the Republic series really needs to be made into a live action Disney+ tv show. It needs to be made cannon!
I'd agree but Disney should keep their hands off the legends stuff. Their fanfic canon stuff and the OG can stay separate, at least until someone who cares about the franchise becomes the head of Lucas film
You forgot about Darth Vitiates part in pushing Revan and Malak over to the dark side.
Old Republic Sith and Jedi are badass, Disney needs to make this into movie or series.
I hope see both this characters in old republic movie
The Lords of Hunger and Pain are two of my favorite Sith they are so cool I hope if they bring them into live action they do Sion and Nihilus justice
You guys should do a video on Kreia. I love how she used the Force to wield her Lightsabers.
Loved the fan art in this one
What was up with Darth Nihilus filling his empty void by devouring worlds? What was up with him transferring his spirit to a mask and a piece of some cloak, is he impossible for any Jedi to defeat?
He devoured the planet Katarr because it’s the homeworld of the Miraluka race, a race of natural force sensitive species of human (every Miraluka has a strong force connection), so with Darth Nihilus hunger growing evermore with each life force he devoured, he ultimately came to the necessity to devour a whole planet of force sensitive people, with time his own condition (being a wound in the force) combined with the corruption of the dark side started to corrode his physical form so in order to survive he binded his life-force/consciousness into his mask and cloak and that way he could still retain somewhat of a physical form and thus became just like Aaron said a “living ghost” that wears a mask and cloak. Hope I made myself clear kinda long explanation. :)
Oh and also he is basically impossible for anyone to defeat cuz he could just take away yout life force and R.I.P. to you, so Meetra Surik (or whatever you named your character in KoTOR 2) being also a wound in the force, Nihilus was not able to absorb her life force on the contrary trying to absorb her life force made him weak enough to be defeated so basically he’s fkcn screwed and has to kill you in conventional ways or become weak enough to essentially not being able to sustain his “physical form” anymore and thus kinda dying in a matter of speaking
KOTOR needs to be a movie. Especially Revan.
KOTOR is one of my favourite game of all time.
Darth Raven 💯
Awesome
Since u did malak and nihilus, u should now do Darth Sion and Darth vitiate/Valkorian/Tenebrae (same individual)
Relax we know all his names
@@Lucky-qg6mu relax urself, some ppl don't u patty
@@TY-km8hj easy mn most of these are sw weebs
Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?
Bane and zannah
Can you do history of Alfred Pennyworth, Batwing, Flame Bird, Batwoman, Azrael, Signal(Duke Thomas), Bluebird, Stephanie Brown and Carrie Kelly?
Awesome sith review.
We here and to answer question Darth Maul my fav, actually tied with Darth Revan
I really want Kreia to make her canon debut.
Vitiate
Can you please make a video about the Avengers Forever (2022) comic series?
It's all of these shows prequel to the starwars movies from the 70's
When are you going to do history of Marvel's Sandman and Kurt Conners the Lizard since they made a live action comeback in Spider-Man No Way Home along with the Elementals who were mentioned in Spider-Man Far From Home?
can you do dr doom?
Can you make a history of Darth vitiate
Who do you think is the best thing about Darth Nihilus and Darth Malek also what do you think they would be like if they appeared on the Big Screen or TV Shows? Who do you think would win between the two of them?
I’ll take this one… The best part about them is how fashionable they are with their capes. Maybe on TV but an animated limited series that way the financial loss of the show would be low. Who would win between the two of them. Depends. If it’s a pie eating contest then Nihilus since Malek didn’t have a lower jaw. Hope that answers all your questions!!!
You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching,
Love like you’ll never be hurt,
Sing like there’s nobody listening,
And live like it’s heaven on earth
If they ever do individual films of each character from KOTOR, it would be dope if they introduce time travel so that they can do some missions with Anakin, Mace, Qui-Gon, and Obi-Wan.
You’re joking right? Time travel? That’s usually reserved for Star Trek for their fan service and weak plots.
@@starscream512 It's called fiction. None of it is real. Teleportation has been introduced, flying, astroprojection. It's a matter of time before this sci-fi brings up time manipulation.
It's NOT just Star Trek who have utilized great time travel stories:
-Avengers Endgame (2019)
-JK Rowlings The Prisoner of Azkaban
-Robert Zemeckis The Back to the Future Trilogy
-DC Comics Flashpoint (2011)
-Smallville did a great time travel episode
-Charmed the TV show did a whole bunch of time travel stories. The final episode was a time travel episode that united the whole cast.
-Supernatural did a time travel episode were they meet their parents
@@starscream512 Yeah I thought this sounded off too.
Since you did the origin of Sonic the Hedgehog characters Tails and Knuckles in your previous video, when are you going to do history of Sonic the Hedgehog himself?
Since you did the history of Miss Marvel Kamala Khan, Can you please do origin of the Nega Bands in your next video since that's going to be the source of Miss Marvel getting her powers in the MCU?
Can you do history of the villains of the Stargirl TV show like Mr_Bones, Dragon king, Brainwave and Icicle? When are you going to do history of the Flash Villains Mirror Master and Top since the second half of season 6 of the Flash has finished?
Can you do history of the Atom, Major_Force, Captain Atom, Plastique, the Blackhawks, Rocket Red Brigade, Blue_Beetle, Mr Terrific and Plastic Man along with the history of the Villains Dr Alchemy and Abracadabra?
Leave this man alone, you seem to have all the info go start a channel
Darth Sidious
I want to see a sith with a orange saber, in fact you don't see enough blade color variety
Thats not true. There's purple, blue, red, green, yellow I think and black
12:02 wait..... That is a Predator right? Hulk is fighting a fucking Predator?
Their was a predator justice league not surprising
There's both a Batman and Superman /xenomorph crossover that were both really good if you havnt read those yet.
Why did the Jedi make Darth Malek forget that he was a Sith?
KOTOR ❤️
So to put it in lazy people's terms, am I misunderstanding the situation when I say that Darth Nihilus is the Star Wars answer to Galactus?
I thought Darth Malak was more like Galactus.
What type of Sith are Darth Nihilus and Darth Malek compared to someone like Darth Maul?
God to a mortal
Could you please do a video on starkiller.
Dantooin dantooin
Hay did nt that use to be a show
Ya know
Dantooin with the stars
For the 5 pepol who get this reference

Damn man I really wished you read fantasy books!! There’s an author named Robin Hobb who is absolutely KILLING it with her stories and her characters are every bit as epic as those in Starwars!!! The magic, the powers, the sword fighting, the assassins…bro,there’s just SO MUCH going on in these books that is just all kinds of awesome! The Farseer Trilogy, Fitz and the Fool Trilogy, The Tawny Man Trilogy, The Liveship Traders Trilogy!!! Bro her stories are amazing and her characters are the shit!!! I like her better than the Lord of the Rings books! Just better reading all around!!! If somebody like you was on here breaking down those stories and characters it would be amazing!
Did you really just compare Hood to Tolkien? Stop it man.
@@weseethetruth158 Robin Hobb to Tolkien, I most definitely did brother! Tolkien tells a great story and I gave him mad credit as being the creator of middle earth but I’m not a fan of his writing style. He’s way too long winded and as epic as his characters are they are very one dimensional! Robin Hobbs style just vibes with me so much better! I can connect into her stories and follow them very fluidly. Also her characters are written way better and that’s just plain facts. But if you like Tolkien that’s cool AF he got me into fantasy stories with The Hobbit when I was in 5th grade and I love his stories.
Darth Nihlis. On the grounds he was able to transform his entire body into dark energy! A certain mystique about him. Once human, he became dark energy. Just cool!
So many things in the Star Wars history, and the movies are the worst part of it. For the new movies not to do a lot more with the rich history is sad. If they were gonna change things, there were so many better things to change than what they did. I mostly ignore Star Wars since the last trilogy came out. I was never the biggest fan, but the direction they’ve chosen is just really sad. At least Marvel had the sense to take a lot of cues from recent comics.
Marvel and Star Wars are ran by the same exact people. Directors and parent company and all.
Jesus loves u
The Sith 🙄
A bunch of clowns
Vader being the biggest clown. He spent his whole life trying to be me
What no sion?! He's a DOPE zombie sith thing
DO MORE SITH!!!!!!! Tired of the Jedi. Super lame
Malak and revan only turned sith cause they were BRAIN WASHED into it. U skipped straight past that part
