Sith Triumvirate
From left: Darth Sion, Darth Traya, and Darth Nihilus.
The Sith Triumvirate was the remnants of Revan and Malak’s empire. It was made up of Darth Traya, a Jedi named Kreia who trained Revan and was exiled for it, Darth Nihilus, a survivor of the Mandalorian War, and Darth Sion, an acolyte in Revan and Malak’s empire. Formed after the death of Darth Malak and the disappearance of Revan, the triumvirate waged a shadow warfare on the Jedi order. Towards the beginning of the war Darth Traya was betrayed by her other two confederates. Consumed by hatred of the Force itself, being forsaken by both Sith and Jedi, joined with a Jedi known only as the Jedi Exile and plotted its destruction. In the meanwhile Sion and Nihilus carried out the first Jedi purge by sending out assassins until very few Jedi were left. One of the last Jedi, the Exile traveled with a group of companions in search of other Jedi fighting the Sith all the way. Eventually Traya betrayed her and got Sion back under her thumb. Soon after, the Exile and her companions boarded Nihilus’s flagship and slew him. Then, traveling to the Sith training world of Malachor V, she dueled and killed Darth Sion and entered Traya’s lair. Traya planned to kill the Exile and send echos through the Force that could have destroyed it, but in the end she was overcome. With her dying breathe she advised the Exile to follow Revan into the Unknown regions of space, advice the Exile took and she was never reported of again. The Sith empire sputtered and died after the death of its leaders.
