    Darth Baras was such a great villain and personally for me as the main antagonist for are sith warrior storyline it was so satisfying to take this jerk down and taking down his ego and his power literally in front of the dark council eyes and with are allies along are side was super awesome and badass and amazing in my opinion. :)

That being said though I do agree with you on being chosen by the emperor himself literally and going against your master Baras who left you for dead and betrayed the empire you were sworn to protect similar to James bond but working as the bad guys with lightsaber is really awesome and badass like you said but your the bad guy is super amazing. :)

    So happy to hear about some old friends again!! Darth Baras, Darth Angral (and by extension Darth Adraas) are probably some of my favorite Sith Lords just because of how well written they are and how much control they seem to wield when they are present. Darth Angral played Darth Malgus on Coruscant so badly I even felt pity for our baldie with asthma.
    I read the book ‘Deceived’ by Paul S. Kemp, and here, it is actually the Jedi Aryn Leneer that attacks one of the present Sith when she felt the death of her Jedi Master, Zallow.
    Satele Shan had been in the council room with Dar’nala, the Republic Senator and Lord Baras. The scene that followed was blood-boiling because of how smug Baras was about having the upper hand in the ‘peace’ negotiations now that the Empire had Coruscant under control.
    I suppose two versions of the peace negotiations can coexist?😂😂
    Somehow I forgot that Darth Baras was on SWTOR, now I’ll play Sith Warrior with a better understanding of who he is.

  • @MrChristophSteininge
    @MrChristophSteininge 3 місяці тому +3

    I wonder about the timeline. Was the emperor incarcerated on Voss by Sel-Makor, even as he was Valkorion of Zakuul? Was the emperor powerful enough to split his personality into two to be in two places at once. If you recall, the emperor hollowed out (in his own words) Valkorion and posess him. In order to have 3 children and to consign his most powerful child to Nathema, after consuming this world sometime, this covers a lot of time, decades at least. I say about 30 years at least. This raises many questions. To split his personality must have sapped his power considerably, and perhaps the imprisonment of the emperor on Voss worked only so well because he was at the same time pursuing plans on Zakuul. Perhaps the consumption of Ziost later in the history of the empire solved this problem for the emperor. By this time the emperor became a figure much like Galactus, a god (in his own words), that cannot be denied.

    • @SWCentral
      @SWCentral  3 місяці тому

      I think you’re half right.
      I believe the Emperor sought revenge on Sel-Makor but his plan was stopped by the JK and a few days/weeks later the JK faces the emperor on DK and “wins”.
      So I think the emperor had enough of his empire and just bailed to focus on Zakuul.
      Did he possess Valkorion at the same time as being trapped on Voss? Yes! The character trapped on Voss was in fact, the true emperors voice, a host with a slither of his being. I’d 100% believe he could split his consciousness into two people at the same time.

    • @przemekmaj132
      @przemekmaj132 3 місяці тому +1

      Erm Actually Emperor posses Valkorion many years ago before even swtor story start, he actually rule as Valkorion for hundreds years ( hence the title of eternal emperor), and yes he actually fathered Arcann Thexan and Vaylin. Emperor was so powerful that he can posses many bodies and share their powers im the same time. Why he actually didn't free Voice? Well he have more importants plans ( and JK stop it). Besides, he had considered the Sith Empire a failure for a long time and was no longer interested in it, so he preferred to send his anger at Baras rather than deal with it himself.

    He had such a knowledge of the Fat Side, that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dieting. He became so rotund... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his Body Type 4 status which eventually, of course, he did.
    Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice ate him in his sleep. Ironic...
