Known Aliases: Krayt's Hand
First Appearance: Star Wars: Legacy #0 <i>(June 2006 - cameo)</i>, Star Wars: Legacy #2 <i>(June 2006 - fully)</i>
Group Affiliation: One Sith
Born on Korriban, this female Twi’lek was raised by Darth Krayt’s Sith Order. She was taught to use the Dark Side of the Force by her master, a fellow Twi’lek known as Darth Ruyn. She would be his best pupil and seven years after the Sith took over the Empire, her training was complete. In her final test, she was ordered by Darth Krayt to kill Ruyn, the only one she has ever felt close to. The new Sith executed Krayt’s will without hesitation, proving her loyalty to the Dark Lord. Krayt then named her Darth Talon, and she became Krayt’s Hand, a title shared by Darth Nihl.
Upon her initiation, Darth Talon was given her first assignment: to find Princess Marasiah Fel and use her to draw out her father, the former Emperor Roan Fel. Talon killed Sia’s master, the Imperial Knight Elke Vetter, and pursued Sia from Socorro to Vendaxa. Using some of Vendaxa’s deadly wildlife, Talon struck again and briefly held her own against Sia’s Jedi protectors and three bounty hunters led by Cade Skywalker. She was stopped when Cade used to Force to hurl some wreckage at her, knocking her into a nearby forest. Soon joined by Darth Nihl and other Sith, Talon made another attempt at the princess’s life. Sia and the others escape and Talon returned to Krayt and offered her own life as forfeit. Krayt spared her however, since her mission provided different, but more favorable results.
Weeks later, when Cade tried to rescue Hosk Trey’lis from the Sith Temple on Coruscant, Talon and Nihl captured Skywalker for Krayt. After Cade later agreed to stay at the temple, Krayt assigned Talon to be his master and teach him the ways of the Sith. While Talon was instructing Cade, she attempted to seduce him as well. He pretended to be interested, but the young Sith saw through his deception. She soon stopped Cade when he made a second attempt to save Hosk. When Krayt executed Hosk, Cade attacked Krayt, Talon and Nihl. Talon was the first to fall when Cade stabbed her with his lightsaber. She barely survived and began her recovery in a bacta tank.
