![Why The Sith FINALLY Went Extinct [150 Years AFTER Sidious] - Star Wars Explained](/img/1.gif)
"The Dark Side is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural."
I'm always down for another Darth Nihilus video from you guys. I'm just now getting into the Lore of the Old Republic, and this really helps!
Eeyup.
Darth Vader: I joined to save my wife
Darth Sidious: I joined thanks to Plageuis
Darth Nihilus: I'm hungry
I imagine nihilus saying it and looking like garfield.
Nihilus also Represents the price of Unimaginable Power
Absolutely!!! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👏
Exactly. Power consumes the individual and the individual becomes a slave to it. Not the other way around.
@@sisigs4820the sith bend the force to there will
* unlimited powahh
I find it ironic Revan, a Jedi and future Sith Lord, created this monster of a Sith. I always love the Nihilus vids you do, Stupendous Wave. You really know how to set that dark tone with him.
Darth Nihilus was the most Terrifying Force User because of his lust for Death and destruction. His entire body was corrupted by the Dark side of the force, and he was nothing but a Force spirit covered by the Mask that he bonded his life force to.
Abeloth was worse, also jedi after the old republic era knew how to shield themselves from force drain.
@@plagueisproductions9327 really they did? you got a source?? not trying to be pretentious seriously jw.
@@Dezzyyy Ulic Quel Droma taught Anakin how to resist force drain in the Clone Wars game
@@plagueisproductions9327 normal force drain yes, but we only know of two sith that were capable of consuming all life out of an entire planet. Force drain on that level cannot be blocked easily.
@@sisigs4820 the dark reaper is nothing compared to nihilus.
The Dark Reaper worked by harvesting the Force using the Force Harvester, a device that killed anything within range by draining its Force energy and focusing it into beams that dealt massive damage to any object. However, the Reaper could not harvest a wound in the Force.
The Reaper was also equipped with dark side-powered turbolasers. In order to defeat the Dark Reaper, an ancient Jedi Knight named Ulic Qel-Droma taught the Jedi how to withstand the Dark Reaper's effects.
(The reaper can not harvest a wound in the force.)
The dark reaper is weaker then Nihilus and the Jedi even the sith learned how to withstand not immune to the effects of the dark reaper not Nihilus, who's force drain is different.
I have a friend who lives Revan and he told me that without Revan, Nihilus, one of my favorites, wouldn’t exist. He’s got a point
I'm surprised you managed to find this much information in regards to Nihilus's life. It's most difficult to come by, but when the slightest measure escapes the cold of obscurity it makes me feel as if I had found valuable secrets
He screech in KOTOR trips me out still
Nothing but pure unbound dark side energy
i fully believe that if darth nihilus lived long enough, he wouldve erased all life in the galaxy, hes also my favorite darth so i have to be biased
Same my favorite Darth he's just so cool in my opinion
Legend says Darth Nihilus's mask is still somewhere in the galaxy, but cursed with his soul/spirit and the wound in the force of hunger that he suffered.
And whoever puts it on will suffer what he had and become just like him/the new Darth Nihilus
i heard this too, i also read that after his death his mask was stolen by smugglers and a sith acolyte tried to recover it, when she succeded it is unclear where the mask ended up, nihilus holocron is in a sith temple on korroban and his mask is out there somewhere too, thats the reason how darth krayt managed to summon his spirit just to be deemed unworthy of beeing a sith by nihilus lol, even in the cannon timeline nihilus is around, it takes only one man to put on the mask so nihlus spirit can take over that new host and all the terror beginns from a new
But we got Snoke instead of this....
Always love lore about my favorite Sith
He's my favourite aswell. Imagine a big screen version of the old Republic it could be epic
@@rossicourvosi218 yeah only if they did it right. No worse way writing an making it then they did with the Original 1st 3 episodes trilogy. But anything Original Trilogy (eps 4-6) to say Rogue One ish or so should result in something spectacular or even promising. An since theres nothing hardly known about WHOM he was just that he ONCE was Good an well liked an all totally opposite to what he'd become as a Sith an that he was a dude. About ANYONE even a totally no one could be cast to play him too. All they gotta be able to do as start off as a great anything but bad guy like described an then be able to make us feel pretty uneasy even creeped out or in a real sense of dread an/or fear/danger with them in character on a screen an they got it. They can even just about make up alot of his powers an fighting style of remember since other then the games an some books I think that's not been too flushed out either
@@rossicourvosi218 image it been ruined and bastardize by Disney Kathleen Kennedy social justice activits writers
@@robertagu5533 it will never work the ancient sith lore is too dark too gritty mature serious violent badass brutal and too well written for Disney star wars
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 that's kinda the impression I got about Disney too. Glossing over the fact that "woke" PC agenda perversivness ALSO prevails but that's was just my guess on one the ways to do it. An probably how I would if I was the one to make a live action Nihilus origin story for the Iconic franchise
A Live action of Nihilus story would become a insta-hit seeing how many people played KOTOR back then and are obsessed with this character.
"You are the darkness in which all life dies" ~ Visas Marr
Ah The Lord Of Hunger. One of my favorite Sith! Which reminds me: Tis lunch time
I hope he gets to the big screen one day.
At this time, as long as Kathleen Kennedy has her influence on Star Wars, Nihilis would never be what we want him to be.
Disney need to stay away from this era! New sith war, mandalorian war, Jedi civil war, sith triumvirate! They’d just ruin it
Darth Nihilus is my favorite definitely
Love some Darth Nihilus! Appreciate the video.
Your lore videos are amazing. I haven't really had the motivation to read any novels for a while, even though I used to always have a book in hand. But, your videos make me feel like I don't even need to do any reading. The way you set the tone paired with the ominous background music makes for a pretty entertaining and perhaps even "immersive" experience, for lack of a better word.
"I sense great rage in you." Darth Nihilus obviously gets his name from Nihilism, but he would be a perfect candidate for a Red Lantern Ring in Green Lantern Comics in DC and reminds me in a way of Gorr the God Butcher from Thor Comics in Marvel.
Imagine if he beat Mitra and became a god, one who Anakin can't even beat
He'd have to beat Abaloth too, she represents a completely uncontrollable force
@@jesussaucedo8133 that's what I was thinking too
Also guys I imagine such as one the original elemental Ancients or Whills wouldn't ALSO be much of a problem for him either or at least it'd take quite alot of effort, luck an a drawn out long an brutal fight to take him down or fight him least to a stalemate
@@jesussaucedo8133 Well, he technically is the same, just natural and not self made
@@jesussaucedo8133 nah nihiluis is far too inferior in raw force power y'all overrated him too much he ain't even more powerful than revan, nihiluis isn't even on the raw force power levels of some of the ancient sith in kotor 2 nihiluis was frightened by the power freedon nadd tombs projected nadd was even the most powerful ancient sith lord.
Imagine if they made an amazing trilogy around revan, emperor vitiate and the old republic
This is the first time ive heard an explanation of the MSG, finally! Thanks!
I find very interesting how, in the end, Nihilus, Sion, the Exiled, and even Kreia in her own way (after being one of her students), are all children of Revan, and Revan's actions : the children of war. Maybe the Jedi were not so dumb when they chose not to intervene (their mistake was to do nothing, not to refuse to get into the war). Because the Mandalorian War was a ttrick from the Sith : not just undermining the economy and the military strenght of the Republic, but planting a seed. Vitiate knew war was an opportunity for the darkside in itself, because it comes with tragedies, loss, sorrow, anger, hate. Revan just pushed it to an another level with the mass shadow generator.
The Sith succeeded greatly. But there was something they had not foreseen : Kreia was too clever not to draw all the conclusions and saw a chance to use Revan's actions' consequences to destroy the Force itself
After this I got a little hungry
Just like the mouth of Sauron and the Witch King of Angmar in the world of J.R.R Tolkien, hence Gandalf quoted in The Hobbit "If he had a name, it has long since been lost, he would have been known only as a servant of evil"... But in this case he's only known as Darth Nihilus
You need to make a lore video of his hunger life.
Imagine Nihilus in New Old Republic continuity was not aligned with the sith or jedi but an enemy of both which both sides have to stop because of his impact on the force.
thats what he actually was, he didnt give a shit about sith or jedi, all he wanted was drain life force from others thats why Traya helped exile to restore her link with the force, traya was a sith exile a jedi, they know how big of a threat nihlius had become.
What an epic thumbnail! 👍👍👏😮
Darth Nihlus, the Star Wars version of Galactus
Only 1000 times worse. Galactus is a balancing force in the universe. Nihlus is just that raw uncontrollable hunger.
I see a video about my favorite Sith Lord must be watched immediately 😂
I know that Sidious was supposed to be the most powerful Sith Lord that ever existed, but some of the ancient Sith like Darth Nihilus make me seriously doubt that.
To be fair, nihilus and vitiate are both barely sith at all. When vitiate hits his full power he kind of stops bothering being sith, and Nihilus seems to become almost just a force of nature than a full sith, who’s controlled by his power. He can’t resist it.
Personally though, I don’t think Sidious should be considered more powerful than people like nihilus or even some of the bosses in swtor. It would make his death unrealistic as some of those guys would just…float back up. I think it’s better to see him merely as the most powerful at the time.
@@firstnamelastname9237 I Always Assume Darth Sidious was the Most Powerful, by simply being the Only Sith to Conquer the Republic when non other before him manage such a task. Which he never truly did Alone, without Plagues or Vader he wouldn't have gone half an inch.
@@TwiceStruck A lot of that came down to good strategy and patience. Movie wise, Sidious only needed to win or avoid one fight (yoda) as he lost to windu, but anakin saved him, something that could have happened whether or not he was powerful.
I think the triumvirate got pretty close to fully wiping out the jedi. They’d steamrolled the republic and jedi into almost certain failure, just trying to kill jedi. And Vitiate’s eternal empire rocked both the sith and republic, but again, he was really no longer sith by that point.
@@firstnamelastname9237 Vitiate is just trying to become as powerful as possible, and I'm pretty sure that was the point of the ways, which was for the user to become as powerful as possible.
@@sisigs4820 Sort of. But if we only go by “trying to become as powerful as possible” as sufficient to be called sith. Anakins was sith before he even went dark side. Many Hutts would probably also count as sith, along with Grievious who did the same (even if the reason for it was to in turn kill more jedi).
I would like to see a tv show or movie show the war between the Republic, Jedi and Sith Triumvirate
Kathleen Kennedy social justice activits writers will destroy it
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 maybe
@@macwelch8599 not maybe they will, they only care about the "message"
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 the Andor show is top-tier, though
@@macwelch8599 no it's not its average at best and it's not as dark as some of the EU stories
Isn’t he a force ghost now like Darth Kryat is talking to force ghost darth bane, Nilhius was just in the back
He was just a simple man making his way through the galaxy.
His power shows how Darth Traya was powerful back in the old repuplic era.
I'm LOVING all these recent uploads on the legitimately good material (as in, pre Disney), awesome content! #DisneySucks ✨ #LegendsNeverDie
I'd love for a Star Wars Horror Movie about him.
You want Disney to ruin it?
Like the wise man said, it only takes one bad day.
Can you do a video analysis on force sensitive artifacts and technology?
Nice. Keep Flying
A true addict!!!
With nihilus i think it is more the lore that makes him so fascinating. Hes kinda like legends broly in dbz. Raw power at its core but its so strong he never really had learned from it or maybe even hubris. Not actually thinking he needed more. And as the master said in the vid. Lol Nihilus didn't really study or learn to b more sith until after he/malachor died and his loss turned to hunger. The hunger being the only thing that relieved the pain. He wasnt pushing for the sith to win. I dont thnk he cared at all. His reasoning for eating worlds was to sustain himself, acting out of pure selfishness. Honestly due to the increasing hunger i really dont think even if he beat the exile, time wasnt on his side. Even if he ate the whole galaxy, not including out rim and uncharted areas he probably wouldn't have survived all the way to the Skywalker era. Eventually there woud b no nore for him to consume and probably fade away to nothing, like how he left countless worlds.
The past of the galaxy has incredible stories. I hope the right people can put this into a trilogy or more some day
I wish the sequels followed a KOTOR II path and made Rey a Wound in the force, bring Nihilus back to life through his mask still keeping his spirit. So much potential it makes me sad we will never see anything cool like that
This is now my head canon for nihilus 😂
Me: Lord of hunger? Sounds interesting... sudden domino's advert pops up lol 😆 🍕
He's Definitely Top5 ⚛️
Is Lola Sayu a result of the mass shadow generator? Looks very similar to the pictures
Is Darth Nihilus now the King of the Starweirds and is classified as a demon or undead being?
make a video about the story of the vr game vader immortal
Bro some one could make a dope cgi video of him turning into the dark lord it would be epic I also feel sorry for him
Name of music?
Cool video btw
What's the backround music, love it very much
When in ep3 sidious says UNLIMITED POWERRRRR....i was like, its a shoutout to my man Nihilus.
Not sure if you covered this or not but could darth nihilus come back in the current era of Star Wars and if he could how do you think it would pan out
Darth Nihilus is the only Sith Lord in Star Wars that scares me in Star Wars
could i see a video on the jedi exile meerta surik on what kind of being she became as a wound in the force
Nihilus wss so unique because he actually pose a threat to the existence of all life in the galaxy and of the Force itself. His was an incredible force power wielded against the Force
I just would really like some more knowledge about a few things.
1. What does force drain do specifically and how does it work in the case of Nihilus ( if you were near him )
2. How is he overrated because me personally, I find it hard to say that when a character doesn't have much spotlight in live action, etc
3. When it comes to his lightsaber skills, which character would you compare his dueling skills as the most comparable?
1. it's pretty much what Sidious did to Rey and Kylo in episode 9. its not about being near him, its about him reaching out and literally breaking your force shield/barrier that every jedi and Sith has and just pulling/draining ALLL of your essence and force energy from out of you, consuming it to make himself more powerful and in the case of Nihilus, weaker, as every time he would feed, he became a slave to the hunger.
2. never heard of him being overrated, but my guess is he only appeared in one game and not much is known about him besides what treya tells us so probably just a bunch of people fanboying over him and people getting annoyed calling him overrated.
3. that's the thing we probably know least of as again, he only shows up in that one game which was so old the animations don't really mimic any specific forms or anything. in legends however, he was said to use form DCLXVI or Atra-Manua. a very niche defensive form created by a jedi, supposedly one of the hardest forms to master, the jedi that made it fell to the dark side and never taught anyone it in fear that it'd be used against him. nihilus was definitely more of a force user than a duelist, as he could even drain planets of their life for him to feed, he's pretty much like galactus from Marvel but a Sith lmfao. he was decent with a Saber, but what made him, well him, were his force abilities.
@@Dezzyyy For his lightsaber form, I did notice that he holds the lightsaber with Two hands and sometimes with one, but when he swings, he often swings with one hand, it kind of reminds me of Dooku's style. He must be using a hybrid between a Two hand and one hand style.
@@Dezzyyy if i'm not wrong Nihlius was the only sith to master the red lightining, the most powerfull lightning to exist, not even sidious had it, and i think that his drain was aura based not concentration, just by standing near him you would get drained cuz as kreia said, its something he cant control, the only think he can control when he concentrates on is not to drain a specific target, thats the reason how visas marr was able to be near him and not get drained
Interesting
Its actually pretty simple. He did 100 Lightsaber swings, 100 Forcepushes, 100 Forcelightnings und ate 10 planets every day. Thats how he became so strong.
I've always wondered about these stories. Do fans create them and hope it becomes canon?
U should do sion next
The The The The New New World is the the most most important important thing thing to remember remember when when the world first first started started to to the the first
make a video about darth vitiate
He should go and see Lord vitiate....
I saw something saying the existence of darth nihilus is canon if this is true where is it stated at
Nihilus had the Potential to Become Virtually Omnipotent If it wasn't for the one Exile
No he doesn't his hax was drain everything else was average at best he wasn't even more powerful than revan in the force in kotor 2 nihiluis was astonishing by the raw force power that the Tom's of freedon nadd emitted, traya also say nihiluis is approaching some ancient sith lords in raw force power which means he ain't as powerful as the top dogs of the ancient sith lords
Potentially is what I'm saying another video I know of saying Nihilus Raw Power Dwarfed Darth Sidious
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 if he wasn't stopped by the Jedi Exile and Continued to Devour all Life in the Galaxy His Power could then Reach Nigh Omnipotent Levels Potentially anyways
@@johnhorton4436 he didn't grow that much in power by absorbing all those planets and force users his drain was just to keep him alive
What about if he somehow managed to find and absorb the Ones of Mortis In theory he could then atleast be Nigh Omnipotent until he somehow Absorbs Aboloth which I don't think he ever could truth be told even with all the Powers of the ones of Mortis
The Sith need the dark side, like the lightside need the Jedi.. but the darkside does not need the sith and this is proven by the wound in the force story and Nillis. This is the true disadvantage of the power of the darksides corruption is shown it is also the reason why the more powerful Sith can not win and likewise the less powerful Lightside can't win either.. its an eternal struggle...although oneside can win the battle niether can win the war. the brighter the light the darker the dark. My opinion this is..💖🇦🇺
I would like to direct you to do some more research as to how many times the Sith won Compared to just how lucky the jedi got from time to time or home many of them it took to beat just one Sith.
Did Darth Nihilus's force sensitivity protect him from death when the mass shadow generator destroyed Malachor 5 ?
most of the other Jedi died, so Nihilus was rather lucky, although considering what he turned into I would say that he was unlucky
He is the Galactus of the SW universe
Some of the Sith know Immortality?..No wonder Darth Krayt couldn’t die.
...NNNNNNOOOOOOO
Yes, all that is left to explore is the origins of Darth Nihilus before becoming the lord of hunger. Also, how he became the Lord of Hunger through the actions of the Jedi brings truth to the saying "we create our own demons."
Where does it say who he was before becoming Nihilus? Everything I've seen says his identity is unknown before the change, just that he was a sith and that's it.
@@rossicourvosi218 No idea, even so, I can't help but want to know more about Nihilus before he came the Lord of Hunger, he's just that kind of character.
@@ejrodriguez2656 my favourite star wars characters. They need to do the old Republic storyline through movies
@@rossicourvosi218 Oh my God, thank you, finally someone gets me. That's exactly what I want and have been saying for years. I want to see an Old Republic movie series, a trilogy at least. Oh, please tell me if you have seen the concept art depicting Keanu Reeves as Darth Revan (my favorite Sith Lord) and Dave Balista as Darth Bane, those are so cool and if brought to life on the big screen then my prayers would be answered.😇💖👍
@@ejrodriguez2656 I've seen the keanu reeves art and it looks epic. And a trilogy with nihilus l, raven and all the others would be mental! And do some thi g different without vader amd the usual characters.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug. -Rick James.-
Mask of nihilus is easier to wear , so much harder to remove, i believe it's nihilism,draining emotions and passion from individual till they are a husk of their former self losing the living force and then the mask of nihilus finds another host ,i still believe the Darth lives in his own twisted immortality just draining life force as he's a sith who doesn't care about any teaching or material things
😭 such a sad story
Nihilus was a pantywaste; the exile curb-stomped it.
Remember playing kotor, the Nilus fight was a bit disappointing. The great worleater hungerer died quite quickly.
Only because she was a similar wound in the force. He could one shot most people.
How is it still considered a Darth after it transformation into a force entity...? Makes no sense to me, since it isn't concerned with sith traditions, only with its own primal hunger...
Id make nihilus my bish
I believe that the death pain and suffering that Darth Nylas had to go through was justified his anger and hatred towards the Jedi giving him power and with each life he took the more pain and power that he would gain I would like to see a video going over the dark counselor Darth Marr
Nihilus didn't necessarily have a hatred towards Jedi. He/it would eventually feast on ANY force user whether it be Sith or Jedi
The jedi were awfully good at creating their own demise. Glad they are gone. Luke was more then a Jedi because he saw what the teachings did.
Kreia was right. The universe would be better off without the Force, light or dark.
Eh, Nihilus was brittle. Even after absorbing a planet of force users. He still couldn't sustain his own existence without having to absorb more.
Why is video this so cool.
Why
Why
Why
Don't forget that Nihilus was weaker than ancient sith, which means he's weaker than Exar Kun, Revan, Vitiate, Bane, Zannah, Plagueis, Palpatine, Dooku, Maul, Vader etc
Exar kun would one shot nihiluis
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 yep
Maul wouldn't stand a chance.
@@zeroblacksun Maul is more powerful and faster, Nihilus will need time to drain the life out of him, especially considering that Maul can interrupt this process by force-pushing him away. Maul is best duelist and if he can get close, then he can finish Nihilus pretty quick.
Source? Kotor 2 never said he was weaker. In fact many characters admitted in kotor 2 that the more life Nihilus consumed he became more powerful... Kreia even said that his power would "rival" the ancient siths so your wrong he's not weaker.
I wish this was 4times longer, this was very cool
Cool
It’s debatable, but I think Nihilus is more powerful than Vitiate, and the Mortis Gods. Still he’s not the most powerful in all of the EU.
He is not he is overrated if you think he is more powerful than those guys you clearly don't know the eu lore and haven't play kotor 2 nihiluis isn't even as powerful as revan let alone some of the ancient sith lords which traya say were far more powerful
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 look at the video “Nihilus makes Palpatine look weak” he was able to drain the life of an entire planet. A feat similar to Vitiate, but it makes him a superior being to Sidious. The Mortis Gods aren’t even cable of that. He only lost due to him gaining so much power it crippled his body, and it was too much for him. Nihilus isn’t overrated, you’re just a hater of him and you’re reply is the only overrated thing here.
@@TheAncientSith alot of sith lord could drain life of planets naga sadow and freedon nadd are both confirmed to be star 🌟 booster, nihiluis is overrated he doesn't possess as many abilities skills and raw force power than others sith lord exar kun would one shot him.
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 While Exar Kun could match Nihilus in Lightsaber skills, he doesn’t stand a chance in force abilities. I’m far from a Nihilus fan, but he’s seriously one of the most powerful beings. Even though Darth Nihilus can one shot almost all the Sith we talk about, there are certain beings he can’t match like the Bedlam Spirits which can one shot any character in the EU. Nihilus still one shots Sidious, Exar Kun, and could potentially beat Vitiate, and the Mortis Gods.
@Lytralwas I asking for your opinion? “Nihilus hater”
WAIT!!! I don't get it, if Darth Nihilus became Immortal and can destroy entire lifeforms on planets...wtf is never in top 5 Sith Lords 😂
Because he is still weaker than Ancient Sith
He wasn't the most powerful with the force all he has is his draining ability, even naga sadow was more powerful than nihiluis
He's only a sith by name. He's a wound in the force like a force monster. Although He's not as powerful as like Vitiate or Sidious, he's no slouch and his force drain ability is the strongest its ever been. If you can get past it He's pretty easily defeatable.
@@zeroblacksun many of ancient sith are power enough to resist it
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 I think that's theoretical. Meetra only was able to resist it due to her being a similar wound in the force. I think that only extremely strong beings like Palpatine ,Vitiate and Exar Kun could possibly.
Pitiable. Tragic.

No 🥱
Great story but the artwork showing him with braids was truly awful.
