Wutzek (Jedi Renaissance)

Wutzek was an ancient male Salinian who was transformed into a Force Demon during his young adult life, granting him immortality and the ability to transform himself into a billowing cloud of smoke while stealing away his life force and his natural essence. His unique condition gave him the ability to enter into the body of other living things and possess them, pushing aside their mind and dominating them with his own will. Active throughout the early history of the Galactic Republic, Wutzek was imprisoned by the Sith on Yavin IV during the reign of Exar Kun, Wutzek's prison was discovered millennia later by the Jedi Order in 15 ABY. Taking the urn within which he was contained, the Order sought to unleash him eventually and combat the malevolent darkness within him and convert him to the light.
