Darth Maul was a Dathomirian Zabrak Sith Lord and apprentice of Darth Sidious. He had two brothers named Feral and Savage Opress.

Background[]

Early lífe[]

Darth Maul was born on Iridonia, but he grew up on Dathomir with other Zabrak Nightbrothers. The Sith Lord Darth Sidious took young Darth Maul from there at an early age. In Maul's early training Darth Sidious told him the ways of the Dark Side. Maul didn't even know that his master was the apprentice of Darth Plagueis. After Sidious killed Plagueis, Maul became his official apprentice. They continued the Rule of Two, which allowed only one Sith Master and one Sith apprentice. Maul grew up to become a dangerous Sith lord and was chosen to use his special double-bladed Sith lightsaber. He eventually got his own ship called the Sith Infiltrator, with his own custom speeder bike called Bloodfin.

First missions[]

Maul's first mission was to put the criminal organization Black Sun in 33 BBY. Later Sidious pitted him against the force-sensitive Drovian Silus, who was a gladiator.

Naboo and presumed death[]

In 32 BBY he was ajects to Viceroy Nute Gunray and Rune Haako on the Blockade of Naboo after Queen Amidala escaped. Darth Maul battled Qui-Gon Jinn on Tatooine to kill Padmé Amidala and young Anakin Skywalker. But Qui-Gon managed to escape the Sith Lord. Qui-Gon Jinn then spoke with the Jedi Council to find out that the Sith lords had returned from a thousand years. Maul later dueled him and his padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi on Naboo. Maul killed Qui-Gon Jinn, but in the end, Obi-Wan cut him in two halves and he fell into the reactor pit. Although he was killed by the Jedi, his body started tumbling down to the reactor pit and was disintegrated.

Return[]

11 years later Maul was found during the Clone Wars by his brother Savage Opress on Lotho Minor. When Savage did find him on that planet, he saw his lost brother with six cybernetic legs. Maul had to use this apparatus because of what happened 10 years back when Maul was cut in two halves by Obi-Wan Kenobi. When Darth Maul figured out that Savage was his brother, the two worked together to try and defeat their nemesis, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

They later encountered Kenobi several times, on Raydonia and on Florrum. On Florrum, Opress killed Adi Gallia, but Kenobi managed to escape each encounter alive. After their retreat from Florrum, the Sith brothers got in contact with Pre Vizsla and his Death Watch. They helped the Mandalorians gain the support of the Black Sun, Jabba the Hutt's crime empire and other criminal organizations. With the help of the criminal underworld, Maul, Opress and the Death Watch started a series of attacks on Mandalore so that Vizsla could present himself as a savior. Vizsla took over the planet and imprisoned Duchess Satine, the leader of the New Mandalorians. Later, Maul took actions against Vizsla, after the latter betrayed him and imprisoned him. Maul escaped from prison and challenged the Death Watch leader to a duel. Maul killed him during this fight and became Mandalore. Later, Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on the planet to free Satine from prison. But Maul stopped him, killing Satine to hurt Kenobi. After that, Darth Sidious arrived on the planet and battled Maul and Savage. Sidious killed Opress and subjected Maul to force lightning. He spared his former apprentice's life because he had certain plans with him.
