Star Wars: 10 Greatest Sith Lords You'll Never Forget

7. Freedon Nadd

Freedon Nadd was a Jedi of the Old Republic, before a desire for power led him to slay his master and leave the Jedi order, which then saw him flee from Republic space to the old Sith empire. Here he gained a wealth of knowledge of the dark side of the force, which led him to Yavin 4 where he awakened the spirit of the deceased dark lord Naga Sadow who took Nadd as his apprentice.

Nadd became a master of the force and was more than capable with a lightsaber and after he believed that he had learned all he could from Naga Sadow's spirit, he used his new power to destroy Sadow and leave Yavin. He then travelled to the world of Onderon where he used his new found powers to bring the world under his control, and he ruled over Onderon as King until his death. But even this was not the end as his spirit lived on and the dark side of the force lingered on Onderon for centuries to come.

His ultimate goal in death was that he would be able to be physically resurrected by one of his followers, however his spirit was destroyed nearly 350 after his physical death at the hands of Exar Kun.
