Darish Vol

Darish Vol was a Force-sensitive Human male born on the remote planet Kesh. He was the Grand Lord of the Lost Tribe of Sith, the highest ranking position in the Tribe. As Grand Lord, he presided over the Tribe's ruling council, the Circle of Lords. In 41 ABY, when Ship, a Sith Meditation Sphere, arrived on Kesh and spoke through the Force with Sith Tyro Vestara Khai, Vol agreed with the council's decision to promote Khai to the position of apprentice. The Tribe then began to use Ship to capture vessels for their new fleet to conquer the galaxy. Vol was present on Kesh in 43.5 ABY, when Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker touched an Aing-Tii relic, the Codex, alerting the Tribe to his presence. In 44 ABY, Vol accepted an alliance with the dark side entity Abeloth and led the celebration for her arrival in the capital city of Tahv.

Abeloth betrayed the Sith, attacking first Vol and then the city itself before fleeing the planet. Vol survived, but thousands were killed as she destroyed much of Tahv, and several more Sith defected from the Tribe to join her. Meanwhile, several Sith led by High Lord Ivaar Workan worked to infiltrate the Galactic Alliance. After the Jedi Order left the planet in order to separate themselves from the government, Vol decided to come to the galactic capital himself. Workan informed Vol that the only obstacle left to Sith power was Senator Rokari Kem—who, unbeknownst to the Sith, was Abeloth in disguise. Vol thus went to kill her; however, she instead overcame and killed Vol.
