Darth Ekkage



Darth Ekkage was a female Dark Lady of the Sith of the Dark Council of the reborn Sith Empire under Darth Vitiate their Sith Emperor master. She was the sister of Darth Baras, another Dark councilor of the reborn Sith Empire and one of the greatest Sith assassins ever to live. Head of the Sphere of Mysteries, she was also in charge of the Red Legion, an imperial unit of killers. During the war, Ekkage and her minions were imprisoned on Belsavis after Ekkage was betrayed and handed over to the Jedi and the Republic. Many believed Darth Ekkage was a powerful as a weapon as the Sith ever had and that their victory over the Republic would have been completed long ago if Ekkage had not have been captured by the Jedi fool Nomen Karr, who earned the hatred of Baras.

But there were also many within the Sith who feared Ekkage-realizing that they could just as easily be her next victim. Learning of Ekkage's survival, Baras sent Lord Melicoste to free her, knowing that her return would solidfy his claim as the Voice of the Emperor, which he successed. However, Ekkage sensed the deaths of her assassins and killed Melicoste after he freed her for his incompetence and took his lightsaber. Then, a mysterious Sith Lord came out of hiding, remarking that Ekkage was so like Baras, to betray someone so loyal to them.

Ekkage claimed it to be family trait and then asked who the Sith Lord was. Just then, Jedi Master Somminick Timmns, whom Ekkage recognised as "Nomen Karr's sad little whelp", appeared, claiming the Sith Lord was with him. Ekkage accused the unidentified Sith Lord a fool and a traitor for working with a Jedi. As a result, the Sith traitor announced themselves as the Emperor's Wrath, sent by his Hand to kill her and her brother Baras. Lamenting that the Hand had stooped as low to work with the Jedi, Ekkage battled the two. Despite being a Dark Councillor, Ekkage was defeated and then killed by the Wrath.
