Mal Banvor (Destiny)

Mal Banvor was a mysterious Skakoan scientist who worked for Black Sun.

Biography
Little was known of Mal Banvor's history. Presumed to have been born on Skako like most members of his species, Banvor was first heard of circa 30 ABY when he was recruited by the resurgent Black Sun. Establishing operations on, Banvor performed numerous experiments in grafting droids parts to organics, essentially making cyborgs.

When Black Sun set their eyes on the Mandalorian Kadar, they captured his son Kandos Ordo in order to lure Kadar and his wife to Metalorn. Once Kadar was in his clutches, Banvor succeeded in creating a cyborg out of him, intending on turning him into a weapon for Black Sun to control. Before Banvor could complete his work, Kadar broke free from his restraints and pummeled Banvor with his bare hands, not stopping until the Skakoan had ceased moving.

Believing Banvor to be dead, Kadar left the scientist's body laying there as he departed from Metalorn. In reality, Banvor managed to survived, albeit barely because of the damage his pressurized suit had sustained. Summoning his droids, he had himself transferred into a methane chamber, where he would reside until his suit was repaired.

Banvor continued to work for Black Sun, although he hid himself from public eye for several years, only speaking with Prince Xalren over comm and never showing his face. In 40 ABY, Xalren recruited Banvor to deal with Kadar when the Mandalorian began assassinating Black Sun s. However, the Skakoan Xalren was dealing with in person was actually the Alliance mercenary, who had impersonated Banvor in order to infiltrate Black Sun. Unbeknownst to Black Sun, Banvor had at some point removed his brain from his body and placed it in a device that could control droids remotely, using them to perform his work.

Some time later, Banvor revealed himself to a convocation of Black Sun Vigos via a droid agent of his. Having planted a bomb in the droid, Banvor detonated the device — although not before delivering a message from Vondara the Hutt — and killed Prince Xalren and his Vigos, effectively ending Black Sun.
