Darth Eskatos

"Patience. Anger is good, but control is better."

 was a Sith who first appeared during the the Old Republic as Sythen Kurak's Sith master.

Early life
"My beginnings are none of your concern."

- Darth Eskatos

Early Career
"I studied under your master for a time, Kurak. A great Sith. In fact probably the best Sith ever. Just a word of warning, though. Even though he's dead, he set events into motion that can take centuries to come to fruition; one of his schemes is probably causing all this trouble right now."

- Jur'ak D'aghar, during the new One Sith uprising, on Darth Eskatos

Later Career
Darth Eskatos was a long-lived Sith, and was known for having several schemes up his sleeve. It would seem the beginning of his career was putting together most of these schemes, and the end was the execution of them. Directing Sythen Kurak into the stasis pod that kept the renegade Sith alive all those years was one of his many schemes that are known.

Death
"Eskatos just dropped off the map. No one really knows how he died, or even if he actually died at all. However, the Dark Side, when used too long, corrupts the body and causes premature death. But, knowing the [expletive] as long as I did, he probably found a way to live on in schemes, just to mess with the rest of us."

- Y'ar'kor T'ri'ok

Post-mortem
As Y'ar'kor T'ri'ok pointed out, Eskatos was well-known for his time-spanning schemes. Evidence was found by Kurak and D'aghar that most of the intrigues and enemies they fought for approximately 200 standard years had some connection to their former master.

Personality and traits
Strong in the Dark Side, his greatest strength was in fact his control. Possessing great patience and control over himself, he was as D'aghar said, "The perfect Sith".

Powers and abilities
A master at lightsaber dueling, Force powers, and many other skills besides, Darth Eskatos had a penchant for seeing the future. This allowed for his many schemes and plans. Also utilizing Force Lightning and telekinesis, the farsighted Sith had an array of Force powers at his fingertips.

Behind the scenes
Eskatos is derived from the Greek word meaning 'Last' or 'The End', as in eskatology which is the study of the End Times.
