Must...kill...that...Jedi.
—Darth Leviathan
Darth Leviathan born as Tekar Vale was a Force-sensitive Human (Korun) male born on Haruun Kal during the year 630 ABY. Tekar was born to Thoz and Seona Vale but was given up to the Jedi when a Jedi Knight felt his power in the force. Unfortunately that Jedi was killed by the Sith Lord Darth Orthus and took the boy from the Knight before departing the planet. Orthus made Tekar drop that name, referring to him only as Leviathan due to his large stature even as a child. For years Orthus subjected Leviathan to both physical, and psychological torture through the force, to train him into becoming a dark side killing machine that only listened to him. By the time he was eighteen years old, Leviathan was driven completely insane by the years of torture, training, and abuse that he sustained at from Darth Orthus. Leviathan was trained as a Sith assassin but was claimed by Darth Orthus to be a Sith Lord in order to strike fear into the hearts of his enemies. Leviathan became a master of lightsaber combat and a powerful force user in terms of raw power, though due to his insanity he was never able to bring out his full force potential.
In 688 ABY, he was given his first mission; bring attention to himself by killing the Jedi Knight Ran Komo, and his Padawan. Leviathan would perform the mission successfully, brutally chopping up the Jedi and his Padawan. From then on Leviathan would become known as a highly dangerous Jedi killer, helping the Sith kill multiple Jedi. Eventually Darth Orthus would have Leviathan assassinate Sith, Dark Jedi and various others. Leviathan was thought to be almost uncontestable in lightsaber combat, until while on a mission to Haruun Kal to capture a group of Force-sensitive children, he met Aren Vale; a newly knighted Jedi and the two engaged in a lightsaber duel. Aren escaped with the children, and since then the two could not keep eachother out of their thoughts. Realizing in their battle that the two of them had a deep connection in the force, Leviathan was unable to get Aren out of his mind. The two would have many more duels throughout the New Sith Wars, with Leviathan wanting to kill Aren to get the agonizing feeling from the force out of him.
Darth Leviathan and Aren Vale would realize through the force that the two of them were actually brothers, Aren would try on multiple occasions to turn his brother to the light side, but unfortunately Leviathan was far too insane from his years of abuse, and Aren would be forced to kill Leviathan on the planet of Dantooine in a duel.

Personality and traits[]
Due to the years of immense stress, pain, and torture Darth Leviathan would become completely insane and subservient to his master. Any sense of his personality was gone, replaced by a seething anger, rage, and hate. He was unable to even string complete sentences together anymore and usually just communicated in angry grunts, and screams of rage.
Powers and abilities[]
Combat Skills & Lightsaber Training[]
In the early stages of his training, being personally tutored by Darth Orthus himself relentlessly, Darth Leviathan proved to be a very talented lightsaber duelist, quickly becoming capable enough to impress even many Sith with his abilities. He killed a large number of Jedi during his career for his master, and became so powerful that he was highly feared among Jedi and Sith.
Seemingly his lightsaber fighting style was a contradictory mix of Jar'Kai and Form V: Djem So. Using his highly powerful force augmentation, Leviathan used Jar'Kai to use fast and furious strikes that were incredibly difficult to keep up with, if not impossible for most of his enemies. He combined the incredibly fast strikes with the powerful cleaves and counters of Djem So, bypassing the Jar'Kai weakness of "lack of strength" using his massive size and strength. The combination of these two forms made Leviathan unorthodox, unpredictable, and incredibly powerful. However, his weakness was that once someone figured out his style he wasn't able to switch up his attacks. If he couldn't plow through their defenses, his opponent could get the better of him.
Force Powers[]
Darth Leviathan proved to have a very powerful connection with the force, unfortunately his insanity stopped him from becoming skilled enough to become a great force user. Still, Leviathan proved that he could use the force to significantly increase his already massive physical capabilities, enhancing himself to the point where most Jedi and Sith could not keep up with him in terms of speed or strength. He used his incredible strength to rip a durasteel droid apart, and was so fast that he dodged the force lightning of his master.
Leviathan had quite a powerful force push, destroying a large part of Jedi strike ship and using a force repulse to destroy an entire durasteel room.
