Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord

Similar to the AT-ST walker, the AT-AC walkers are deployed to patrol the streets of Ord Mantell and enforce Imperial rule.

A silver-plated droid in service of the syndicate leader Nico Deemis, bank supervisor droids perform a highly-specialized function. But while preparing a cargo of credits for routine transport, the droid is captured by Maul’s accomplices in an attempt to manufacture a syndicate war between Nico Deemis and his rival, Looti Vario.

Botekin is a popular sport among the residents of Janix that counts Rylee Lawson among its fans. Players like Rylee don a soft helmet and carry a stick with a net.

A respected detective, Captain Brander Lawson and his partner, a droid nicknamed Two-Boots, investigate shadowy dealings on Janix. Lawson struggles to balance his work and family life, including raising his son, Rylee. While Lawson always wants to follow the law, he also knows when to bend the rules and has no love for the Empire. His strong moral code is tested when he has to track down a dangerous new crime syndicate.

Head of the Janix Civil Defense, Chief Klyce is a firm believer in law and order, even among the syndicates. She also shares a key sentiment with her colleague Detective Brander Lawson: the Empire has no place on Janix. But her stubborn loyalty to her subordinates and to her planet is not always appreciated.

The Sith apprentice Darth Maul wielded a double-bladed lightsaber made by joining two hilts together end-to-end. Maul’s dexterity and extensive training allowed him to use his weapon as a single-bladed saber, or to activate both crimson blades and fight multiple opponents at once. On Naboo, Maul killed Qui-Gon Jinn with his saber, but Obi-Wan Kenobi cut his weapon in half and soon did the same to Maul. Unknown to Obi-Wan, Maul survived, and retained the working half of his weapon. He used this single-bladed saber while leading the Shadow Collective.

A well-trained and savvy Jedi Padawan, Devon Izara is on the run with her Master Eeko-Dio Daki in the early years of the Empire. Living in hiding to survive on Janix, her desire to take action sometimes conflicts with her Master’s wish to stay hidden. She must adapt and accept a future far different than the one she expected for herself.

Drea Lawson was once married to Brander Lawson and they share a child, Rylee. While father and son reside on Janix, Drea now finds herself away from her family, employed by the Empire, and committed to the Imperial rule of law.

Jedi Master Eeko-Dio Daki has been a loyal follower to the tenets of the Jedi Order, teaching his young Twi’lek Padawan Devon Izara. In the early days of the Empire, Daki and Devon must go into hiding. Answering to “Uncle Daki,” he remains an adept wielder of both a makeshift cane and a hidden blue lightsaber. Master Daki may be rather traditional and longlived, but he can still be a fierce warrior and adept duelist when the need arises.

A mysterious Jedi hunter, the Eleventh Brother is one of the most feared of all the Inquisitorius’ ranks. An angular white mask conceals his true visage beyond a pair of piercing red eyes.

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural, and Sheev Palpatine is the most infamous follower of its doctrines. Scheming, powerful, and evil to the core, Darth Sidious restored the Sith and destroyed the Jedi Order. Living a double life, he was also Palpatine, a Naboo Senator and phantom menace. He manipulated the political system of the Galactic Republic until he was named Supreme Chancellor -- and eventually Emperor – and ruled the galaxy through fear and tyranny. The galaxy rejoiced when he died at the Battle of Endor, but Sidious had cheated death and patiently plotted a return to power.

A hulking and formidable Nightbrother thug, Icarus is brother to Scorn and a loyal soldier to Maul. Icarus often covers his mouth with a gaiter, which conceals his unbridled glee while wielding a heavy rotary blaster cannon in battle. In close combat, he has also been known to use a machete rather expertly.
