10 Star Wars Legends Characters We Desperately Want To Return

A female Twi’lek who lived over 100 years after the Battle of Yavin, Darth Talon was a Sith Lady who was a loyal servant to Darth Krayt. Krayt was the leader of the One Sith, and Darth Talon served the One Sith as one of his Hands. She held this title along with Darth Nihl, and later with Darth Stryfe.

Darth Talon was originally trained in the Dark Side by another Twi’lek Sith Lord named Darth Ruyn. The pair were both loyal to Krayt and, as a final test to Talon, she was ordered to kill Ruyn, which she did without hesitation. As one of the Hands of Darth Krayt, she was seen as a direct extension of his will.

Talon was tasked with hunting down the Jedi fugitive Cade Skywalker, the descendent of Luke Skywalker, and temporarily trained him in the ways of the Dark Side. When Darth Wyyrlok, the Voice of Darth Krayt, betrayed the One Sith and attempted to take control, Talon remained loyal to Krayt. However, when Krayt was eventually killed, Darth Talon retreated into hiding.

Despite not currently being featured in the new canon, Darth Talon was at one time planned to be the main villain in The Force Awakens along with a mysterious alien named ‘Uber’; this duo eventually became Kylo Ren and Snoke. She remains the most popular and recognisable character from this era of the Legends continuity.
