User:Darth Nicklaus

Darth Nicklaus is a male pureblood Sith Lord that currently rules as Emperor of the Unified Imperium of the Sith people and the Fel dynasty, along with his wife Empress Marasiah Fel.

Nicklaus is a descendent of the ancient Sith Lord Ludo Kressh and served as a Dark Council member of the resurgent Sith Empire after the Great Galactic War and the subsequent Cold War that followed.

Out of obscurity
Nicklaus Kressh was the illegitimate son of Sith Lord Markos Kressh and one of his many mistresses. After Markos learned of his son's existence he killed the boy's mother and sold him as a slave to be used in the Sith trials on Korriban, however he was able to prove himself as a powerful Sith prodigy after being discovered by Darth Vowrawn. Vowrawn took the boy as his apprentice and trained him to be one of the most powerful sorcerers of the empire and became a brilliant military strategist. Nicklaus' powerful strategic mind came in handy particularly in the Battle of Korriban where he led the scattered fleet above the planet to drive the Republic forces from Imperial Space. This victory led him to be granted the title of Darth and also a seat on the Dark Council.
