Exim Panshard

Exim Panshard was a male Sith Lord who held the title of viceroy on a long forgotten planet. Panshard wore a mask made of meteoric metal which was strong in the dark side of the Force. The mask contained the screams of a hundred innocents slaughtered for the viceroy's pleasure and to give him power, enabling his own spirit to cling onto life through the mask. By 5 ABY, Yupe Tashu had obtained the mask. After conferring with the spirits of fallen Sith, he gifted the mask to the Pantoran Acolyte Kiza. When her boyfriend Remi demanded the mask for himself, Tashu chastised him for angering the fallen specters. He also confiscated Remi's lightsaber and gave it to Kiza. Under the influence of Panshard's mask, Kiza took part in an attack on a New Republic outpost on Devaron and killed Remi when he tried to reclaim his lightsaber.

Panshard's spirit made Kiza into his pawn on the promise she would get power if she brought him to the Sith planet Exegol, where he hoped he would be reborn to bring about a new era of Sith rule. However, Panshard's plans were ruined in 21 ABY after Jedi Master Luke Skywalker sensed his growing darkness. The quest for Exegol ended in defeat for Panshard; after Kiza was killed and he took full control over her body, Skywalker destroyed his mask before it could claim him as its vessel, ending the threat of Panshard once and for all.
