Slippery Hilts

A Force-sensitive Human male nicknamed "Slippery Hilts" lived on the planet Kesh during the Time of the Rot. He married a woman who gave birth to a boy they named Varner. Varner Hilts' father was a member of the Sith Tribe on Kesh, and sometime prior to 3000 BBY, he planned to assassinate a Sith rival. However, the sheath carrying Hilts' bladed weapon was poorly constructed, and the blade fell and lodged itself into his ankle. The Tribe then began to call him "Slippery Hilts," a nickname that stayed until he died from an infection in his wound one month later.
