    "He is already dead, it is simply a question of how many he kills before he falls." Darth Traya
  • I love how Nihilus legit spoke in some weird voice that nobody could really understand, makes him even creepier
  • @ZoeMalDoran
    Drain Life was hardly unique to Nihilus though. What was unique about his Drain Life was the sheer scale of it
  • Fun Fact - The hunger was also eating away his physical form, so in a successful attempt to keep himself alive he bonded his spirit/consciousness, and his force to his robes and mask. Another Fun Fact - His mask is still somewhere in the galaxy cursed with his soul and hunger. Rumor says who ever wears it will be possessed by him, the dark side of the force and the hunger that was eating away at him.
  • I gotta admit, Darth Nihilus is my most favorite Sith Lord. His power level, abilities, knowledge, danger level and everything makes him look like he can take anyone in a fight
  • @nealkern4826
    I saw Darth Nihilus at the gym once on the bunch press. Dude, makes EVERYONE look weak with the plates he was lifting.

    "He cares nothing for the Sith or its teachings… or the Jedi. And when the Jedi are dead, he will feed on the galaxy, the Republic, and eventually, consume the Sith as well."
  • @venkelos6996
    Ah Darth Galactus, one of my favorite characters from the three Kotor games, and a real powerful beast. Another power I THINK he had allowed him to use the Force to hurl the Ravager through hyperspace, as I don't believe that component of the ship was still functional, and like Galactus, there were times when Darth Nihilus was on a clock, and taking too long could mean death. He was a lot of un in Kotor 2. I always thought it was weird how hus ship's "crew" were still alive, barely, but it was like their life-force, and even consciousness, had been devoured, and there was nothing left of them, as the people they gad once been. Truly the Lord of Hunger, indeed.
  • @drsilaslang
    Nihilus was a brilliant concept. The epitome of a tragic character with nothing to lose.
  • @davanttol
    I wish we could see more of him one day, seeing more of his horrific power and signature design
  • So did Nihilus control his flag ship completely, to where he was the only thing keeping it together and moving, or did he lift it long enough for it to be repaired and usable again? Because if it’s the former then that would be insanely impressive!
  • @BladeCrossEXE
    I've always loved Nihilus' design. I just now started playing KOTOR2. Can't wait to face him!
  • @TJSx
    He makes Palpatine and Darth Vader look like children this guy needs his own Star Wars movie.
  • You can't even look at Nihilus as a man, he was more like a walking embodiment of the Dark Side. The Jedi Exile was likely the only being in the entirety of Galactic history that could have taken him down, because of their unique relationship with the Force. Had they not crossed paths Nihilus would have drained all life from the Galaxy.
  • @DMBLaan
    I don't know if there's enough material for a whole video each, but what about some on the characters from the Old Republic Era like Darth Marr, Darth Thanaton, and/or Darth Jadus from the Empire for example
  • @colemikel8976
    Being around Nihlius is like having a constant uneasy feeling each second
  • @XericSol
    Would love to see a deep dive into Jedi Master Belth Allusis... but I don't think there's enough material for that yet.
  • I saw somewhere that he was Dark Skinned with Dreads before he was transformed into Darth Nihilus I want nothing more than to know Darth Nihilus has Dreads
  • Could you do a video like this on Lord Scourge? Feel like not enough is covered on one of my favorite characters
  • It sounds like the inception theme song slowed down in the background. Impressive you got it past the filter
