- Description: The Turia Siqsa are a horrific dark side fusion of a Graug, Stenax, and Hssiss, and their appearance reflects this. Massive wings spread out behind their body, the lower part being reptilian, and the upper being the fusion of Graug and Stenax. Giant spikes and a pair of tusks have emerged from their head, and an unnatural dark side spawned green fire burns through them.

- Distinctions: Giant muscles and spikes, massive wings, and a reptile lower body give this Sithspawn fusion a monstrous appearance.
- Races: No other races
- Strengths:
- Turia Siqsa possess immense strength, enhanced through the dark side of the Force. A punch from the monster can lay low a full-grown rancor, or a swing of its favored weapon can cleave an enemy in two.
- While their bodies are too heavy for actual sustained flight, the Turia Siqsa can use their wings for a sort of extended jump towards their enemies.
- The Turia Siqsa are blessed, or cursed depending on how one perceives it, with an enhanced bloodlust and love for war. This bloodlust gives them an increased endurance when in the middle of a battle, and the more they kill, the stronger it becomes.
- During their creation, the Lady of Secrets was instructed to imbue them with a deep connection to the dark side that manifest as the green flame that glows from their body. While they cannot breathe fire, they can use their flame to sustain themselves in battle by drawing on the dark side of the Force.
- To further increase their strength and endurance, the Lady of Secrets and the Shadow Hand of the Dark Lord gifted the Turia Siqsa with a lesser form of Force Drain, allowing them to drain their enemies to fuel themselves.
- Their hides are incredibly tough, able to take small arms fire with ease and even blows from a lightsaber needed to be repeated to cut through it. Stronger weaponry, like a turbolaser or mass driver, can bring them down however.
- Weaknesses:
- While their bloodlust is enhanced, and makes them incredible engines of destruction, it does also blind them to injuries they have sustained in the heat of battle. It is not uncommon for a Turia Siqsa to die mid-attack from injuries sustained they hadn't even felt they had been inflicted with.
- Their version of Force Drain, while it would be quite effective against non-Force Users and weaker Force Users, cannot affect stronger Force Users like Knights or Masters.
- Because of their connection to the dark side of the Force, and their size, it is impossible for the Turia Siqsa to avoid detection either by sight or through the Force.
- Force Light and other concentrated applications of the Light side can render them immobile or kill them outright because of their connection to the dark side.
- A peculiar side effect of the fusion, if a Turia Siqsa's wings are damaged, it loses its inner fire and connection to the dark side until the wings are healed. This is viewed, in their culture, as the ultimate disgrace.
- If subjected to a ysalamiri bubble or void stone, they lose much of their strength and their connection to the dark side. If caught by these, their hide's toughness also is heavily reduced.
- Another peculiar weakness that developed in the course of their creation is an extreme allergic reaction to aluminum. If it enters their bodies, their hearts will swell until they die.
- Diet: The Turia Siqsa are bred for one purpose and one purpose only: War. They’re dietary needs are even structured around this, their bodies and the ability to break down food stemming from the dark fire practically burning through them allows them to eat and break down virtually anything with their massive, powerful jaws and rows of teeth. They often prefer however to eat their captured, live, struggling enemies.
- Communication: As sentient Sithspawn and leaders they as a default speak Sith. They also know Basic and Graug, albeit a guttural dialect of it.
- Technology level: Primitive, they prefer the use of large bladed weapons in combat and do not know how to use more advanced weaponry besides a basic understanding of how their minions can use them in war.
- Religion/Beliefs: The Turia Siqsa have been allowed to create their own culture, although in service to the Sith of course. They have formed a hierarchical society based on dominance and strength, with an individual rising or falling depending on their performance in ritual dueling rings and on the battlefield. They are known to take trophies from their defeated enemies, with their lairs being filled with such trophies in a ritualistic way that outsiders would not understand. They have an inbred absolute loyalty to the Sith, but first and foremost to the Dark Lord of the Sith Kaine Zambrano. War is what they live for, and if any labor is needed, they will employ slaves or those they have dominated to do so for them.
- General behavior: The Turia Siqsa are absolutely terrifying, unrelenting, bloodthirsty beasts of war. They were created to be the foulest, most effective leaders and conquerors of the savage hordes. Their horrifying, brutish appearance should not be mistaken. Everything surrounding them has been made to support their purpose in war and their appetite for it, right down to their bloodthirsty, and often sadistic views. These creatures are some of the most vicious, barbaric creatures to ever step out of the alchemical pits, pick up weapons and serve in the name of the Sith Empire.
When one is handed down an edict directly from the Dark Lord of the Sith, one drops everything they are doing and follows the command. In this case, the Dark Lord sent a request to the Lady of Secrets to create for him a new Sithspanwn, one that can serve as a thinking siege engine of destruction on the battlefield and command his hordes if need be. Wanting to create the ideal species, and having collaborated on a groundbreaking project, the Lady of Secrets humbly requested that the Shadow Hand of the Dark Lord, Darth Prazutis, come to Valrar and participate in their creation.
Given a list of features the Dark Lord required, the work between the two Sith began. Prazutis brought the Graug specimens she had requested, while the Lady of Secrets and her apprentice Eldaah obtained the other hapless specimens. Stenax from the planet Stenos were abducted and spirited away to the alchemy lab on Valrar, while prime specimens of hssiss were gathered from Korriban and Ambria. Once all the pieces were together, the horrific experiment began: the fusion and enhancement of these races into a new species of Sithspawn.
The result was the Turia Siqsa.
A monstrous fusion of the three species, the Turia Siqsa have an incredible strength and deep connection to the dark side. Warfare is what they are meant to live for, and that is what the two Sith Lords created. Possessed with a powerful bloodlust, they will perform their designated role on the battlefield to perfection.
