OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
  • Name:
    • The Nythrul
      • Eaters of the Force
  • Sithspawn Class: Force Hunter
  • Designation: Non-sentient
  • Origins: Baros ~ The Maleficarum Bio-Genesis Facility
  • Average Lifespan: 15 - 25 years
  • Estimated Population: Rare
  • Description:
    • The Nythrul are grotesque Sithspawn abominations, forged through forbidden alchemy from the DNA of porcine war-beasts known as Gamorreans, DNA of Terentateks, and Ysalamiri DNA into a single nightmarish organism. Their stitched genetics produce bodies that house multiple predatory instincts and defensive capabilities that war endlessly beneath their scarred hides, making them unpredictable engines of savagery and terror on the battlefield. The Nythrul, also referred to as the Eaters of the Force, embody the Sith doctrine that life itself is merely raw material to be broken, reshaped, and enslaved to the will of darkness.
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
  • Breathes: Type I & II
  • Average Height of Adults: 1.96 meters (6'4")
  • Average Length of Adults: 1.22 meters (4 feet)
  • Skin color:
    • Its skin is a patchwork of sickly olive-green scales, pallid gray flesh, and bruised, corpse-like tissue, all crudely stitched together and marked by the corruption of Sith alchemy.
  • Hair color: N/A
  • Distinctions:
    • The Nythrul is distinguished by its horrific fusion of Gamorrean, Terentateks, and Ysalamiri DNA traits, possessing a hulking asymmetrical body stitched together from those multiple genetic sources through Sith alchemy and forbidden experimentation. The species is entirely sexless, lacking any natural reproductive anatomy, as each Nythrul is artificially created from the original copy, rather than born, making them living constructs engineered solely for survival, predation, and war.
  • Races: N/A
  • Force Sensitivity: No
Strengths:
  • Anti-Force Bubble ~
    • Through the genetic integration of Ysalamiri DNA, The Nythrul possess the rare ability to generate a Force-nullifying bubble extending up to 13 meters in diameter, potentially severing the connection between the Force and any Force wielder trapped within its boundary. This biological defense makes them a terrifying threat to Jedi, Sith, and other Force-sensitive beings, rendering even the most powerful Force abilities useless while they remain inside the unnatural void.
  • Hulking Beasts / Durability ~
    • The Nythrul possess a hulking abomination of a body, their grotesque frames forged through unnatural genetic manipulation and Sith tampering into towering masses of muscle, bone, and hardened tissue. Their immense strength and durability make them living juggernauts, capable of enduring devastating attacks while relentlessly crushing anything that stands before them.
  • Force Radar ~
    • The Nythrul possess a predatory ability to detect nearby Force-sensitive beings, causing their monstrous bodies to cycle through faintly glowing colors that serve as both a warning signal to their allies and an indication that potential prey is within range. This biological radar, an effect from corrupted Terentatek DNA, can extend up to forty feet (twelve meters), with the intensity and speed of their shifting illumination increasing as the Force-sensitive target draws closer, signaling the Nythrul’s growing awareness of its quarry.
  • Stench ~
    • The Nythrul emit a horrific, corpse-like stench that can be consciously intensified at will, allowing them to unleash a foul biological weapon capable of overwhelming the senses of those nearby. The unbearable odor can cause uncontrollable gagging, violent hacking, watering eyes, and even force individuals to halt in their tracks as their bodies struggle against the nauseating presence of the creature. In some cases, unconsciousness can occur.
  • Poisonous Claws / Nails ~
    • The Nythrul possess poisonous claws and nails derived from Terentatek DNA, carrying corrupted bacteria capable of infecting victims through even the slightest wound. These unnatural toxins can trigger extreme sickness, accelerated gangrene, and discombobulated thoughts, with untreated infections eventually progressing into a fatal condition.
Weaknesses:
  • Uncontrollable Appetite ~
    • The Nythrul are driven by an insatiable hunger that no feast can ever satisfy, their warped essence forever craving the flesh, blood, and life-force of Force-sensitive beings. To a Nythrul, the distinction between Jedi, Sith, or any other Force tradition is meaningless; all are prey, and the taste of the Force itself is a maddening temptation that fuels their endless predatory obsession.
  • Light Side Sickness ~
    • As creatures born from Sith Alchemy and sustained by the corruption of the Dark Side, the Nythrul possess a profound vulnerability to concentrated Light Side energies, which can scorch their flesh, unravel their unnatural mutations, and inflict agonizing wounds that resist regeneration. Exposure to powerful Light Side abilities can also shatter their predatory minds, flooding them with unbearable clarity, fear, and psychic torment that may leave them crippled, catatonic, or even dead.
  • Slow Paced ~
    • The Nythrul are lumbering abominations whose immense, malformed bodies make swift movement nearly impossible, forcing them to rely on ambushes, intimidation, and brute force rather than pursuit. Few creatures need fear being chased by a Nythrul, for once prey escapes beyond their immediate reach, the monstrous Sithspawn are often unable to catch it through speed alone.
  • Dim Witted ~
    • The Nythrul are notoriously dim-witted Sithspawn, possessing only the most rudimentary instincts and lacking the intellect required for strategy, diplomacy, or complex problem-solving. Most are incapable of making educated decisions, instead acting on hunger, aggression, and simple commands, making them dangerous but highly predictable creations of Sith Alchemy.
  • Weak Immune System ~
    • Despite their terrifying appearance and unnatural strength, the Nythrul possess remarkably fragile immune systems, leaving them highly susceptible to diseases, infections, and even common illnesses that would scarcely inconvenience other species. This biological instability, a flaw inherited from their alchemically engineered origins, contributes greatly to their short natural lifespans, as many Nythrul succumb to sickness long before age or battle can claim them.
  • Creation / Cloned ~
    • The Nythrul are not natural creatures, having existed only through the twisted practices of Sith Alchemy and Dark Side experimentation since the first original creations, leaving every generation plagued by the same flaws that haunt artificial life. Like many imperfect clones, they suffer from accelerated growth and aging, physical deformities, and psychological instability, causing some strains to become incomplete, uncontrollable, or otherwise unsuitable for survival and ultimately destroyed, severely impacting production results.
CULTURE
  • Diet: Raw Flesh & Blood (Force Sensitive Sentients Preferably, But Not Picky)

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The history of the Nythrul began as one of Darth Sycophantia's darkest and most ambitious experiments in Sith Alchemy, a project born from her obsession with creating the ultimate predator rather than a simple servant of the Dark Side.

From her forbidden research, she selected the DNA of several powerful and dangerous species, combining traits chosen for their brutality, resilience, and predatory capabilities.

The savage strength and endurance of the Gamorrean, the unnatural resilience of Terentatek-derived genetics, the Force disruptive ability of Ysalamiri genetic splicing; carefully altered components merged into a single monstrous design.

The cloning process was introduced through preserved samples of corrupted DNA, carefully maintained from ancient experiments and tainted by Dark Side energies, allowing Darth Sycophantia to recreate a lineage of Sithspawn that carried the flaws and horrors of their origins.

During the dark alchemical processes that gave rise to the first Nythrul, Darth Sycophantia infused traces of her own Force signature into the very genetic framework from which they were engineered, forever linking their existence to her presence.

This bond allows a subtle connection to persist between creator and creation, enabling the Nythrul to instinctively recognize her essence and respond to it with an innate sense of familiarity rather than curiosity or aggression.

Because a fragmentary echo of her Force presence already resonates within their alchemized genes, the Nythrul are uniquely indifferent to her Force sensitivity, perceiving it not as an alluring source of power, but as an inseparable part of their own origin.

The accidental discovery of a long-abandoned laboratory on the remote world of Baros provided Darth Sycophantia with the perfect foundation for her creation. Once a forgotten relic of a failed scientific endeavor, the defunct facility was quickly refurbished into a hidden cloning complex, its chambers rebuilt to produce the Nythrul in secret.

Each cloned abomination was implanted with an inhibitor chip buried within its body, serving as both a kill switch and a mechanism of control should any specimen become uncontrollable or defy its commander's will.

Darth Sycophantia wove threads of her own Force essence into the alchemized genetic matrix from which the creatures were born, binding each strand of corrupted DNA to an echo of her dark presence.

Through this unnatural imprint, the creatures recognized her not as prey, rival, or object of fascination, but as the primordial source from which their existence had been shaped, granting her an instinctive connection to their thoughts, instincts, and emotional states.

Because her Force signature already resided within them, they felt no attraction toward her Force sensitivity, perceiving it instead as a familiar extension of their own being, as natural and unquestioned as blood flowing through their veins.

Despite their many imperfections, rapid growth, accelerated aging, unstable mutations, and fractured minds, the Nythrul remain a testament to Darth Sycophantia's dark genius; living weapons forged through corruption, designed to hunt Force Sensitives, and shaped by a mind that viewed life itself as another resource to be manipulated.
