~ Onimi to Jacen Solo. |
Onimi is a major antagonist in the Star Wars Legends continuity, serving as the overarching antagonist of the New Jedi Order series, also known as the Yuuzhan Vong saga. He was a male Yuuzhan Vong who lived during his species' invasion of the Star Wars galaxy. Initially appears to be Supreme Overlord Shimrra Jamaane's court jester and representantive, he is later revealed to be the one who mind-controls Shimrra, thus making him the de-facto Supreme Overlord of the entire Yuuzhan Vong species. He is also Jacen Solo's archenemy.
History[]
A former member of the elite, Shimrra was condemned as a Shamed One when his attempt to graft Yammosk tissue onto his brain failed and left him deformed. A side effect of this was to restore the use of the Force to Onimi, which allowed him to take control of Shimrra Jamaane.
During the war, Onimi was the true power behind the throne of the Yuuzhan Vong. Because of his Shamed One status he could not rule openly, so he had Shimrra take him on as a jester, whereby he could control the Supreme Overlord.
After the death of Shimrra Onimi decided that he would exterminate all life in the Star Wars galaxy. However he was defeated by Jacen Solo, who in a moment of total oneness with the Force was able to reverse all of Onimi's modifications and caused him to lose control of all the toxins Onimi was going to use against Solo. The toxins dissolved Onimi, causing the final Supreme Overlord of the Yuuzhan Vong to become a puddle of foul hydrocarbons which were absorbed by the floor of Shimrra's ship.
Linked to Onimi, Shimrra's ship died itself a few moments later. Seeing the destruction of Shimrra's ship was enough to convince the Vong that their Supreme Overlord was dead. Many Vong followed what they thought was the Supreme Overlord's example and committed suicide. The surviving Vong surrendered a short time later, bringing an end to the war.
