Can I just point out that both contestants were fresh out of training at the start of their respective stories? Not just C9. Regardless, their accomplishments are no less impressive for it, they've both earned their infamy as the galaxy's best.

People tend to shoot for the [shock him] option just cause its there, in this instance though it does nothing and he just shrugs you off with the force. However if you demand an explanation he'll monologue at you first.

Before that cutscene ends he lectures the SI that there are countless dark side rituals and artefacts that they are ignorant about having only recently entered the sith order. He probably stumbled on one of these somewhere in his career. He didn't have any apprentices though, and sith lords rarely share their secrets with the order at large, so whatever it was, its probably lost now. I don't think it left any lasting effects, but still, managing to fend off and defeat a far more experienced sith while their connection to the force (which is the SI's greatest strength) was weakened is a mean feat nonetheless

Should probably clarify. Did you mean story feats, or tabletop RPG skills?

That's only for agents that kept the black codex to themselves and went independent. Loyal agents and republic moles get a different line IIRC. 1) Marr states he spent a lot of resources trying to find you, given the vast resources at his disposal, whatever he considers "A lot" is probably more than the US government spends in a year. 2, 3, and 4.) all of these questions are redundant, he obviously did his homework with #1 5) The first thing Cipher Nine says in the whole bleeding cutscene is that its in intelligence frequency, pay attention. 6) You probably do, but you really don't want to shut down a holocall from a Dark Lord, least of all Darth Marr.

Makes a helluvalot more sense than rebuilding the order on Yavin 4. I'm shellshocked the vaunted 'Master' Skywalker couldn't sense the dark side just oozing from those ruins like an omnipresent, all-encompassing black fog. Especially if as I suspect, the ruins in question were none other than the temple of sacrifice.

I feel you, that was harsh. T-T

What does Pyron know of the sith ways? Power is subjective, you don't need to be Chuck Norris to claim a seat on the council. The Dark lords are politicians as much as warriors, and most of them have come to where they are through cunning schemes and carefully planned power plays, rather than their prowess in battle.

Oh, I see. So its just fanboy zealotry then? That's good to know, now hold still while I chain you to the railroad, can't have your kind procreating.

Why so hostile? I don't get it. I confess I haven't read the books, but the Vong have always fascinated me, I think they'd make great expac material for TOR

That may be so, but SWTOR is also legends canon, so its not outside the realm of possibility for the Vong to make an appearance.

Occupational hazard of the spy business, you can bet your balls it happens in the republic too, all the time. Though I'll agree IA is, in general, a better contender for saddest story than trooper.

Midi-chlorians are nothing short of the living force itself, so it stands to reason that the M-C density in force ghosts and sith spectres would be considerable, unprecedented even.

Totally forgot Ekkage was a councillor in her heyday. That makes three dark lord level opponents wrath has taken down. (Ekkage, Drahg, Baras.)
