Path of the Closed Fist

Canon Linked from 39 articles

The Path of the Closed Fist was a sub-group of the Path of the Open Hand, a Force cult on Dalna that believed that no one, especially the Jedi, should use the Force. It was founded shortly before the battle known as the Night of Sorrow, by the Guide of the Path of the Open Hand Marda Ro, who became the Guide of the Closed Fist. It took the Path of the Open Hand's beliefs to a violent extreme, attacking and making war against the Jedi in the Night of Sorrow and using both a large arsenal of weaponry and Nameless creatures that preyed upon Force-sensitives against them. Members included Binnot Ullo.
