Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Andeddu's Keep was a fortress constructed on the Deep Core planet of Prakith, designed to serve as the stronghold of Darth Andeddu, Dark Lord of the Sith. Far removed from any form of established civilization, Lord Andeddu used the Keep as his personal repository of Sith lore, and also as the location of his secret tomb. Prior to his death, Darth Andeddu fled the Sith homeworld of Korriban and returned to his fortress, in an attempt to elude capture by those who desired his knowledge for themselves. He entered the Keep's innermost chamber, and sealed himself—and his knowledge—within a sarcophagus. Followers of Darth Andeddu known as the Malevolence continued to reside within his fortress for millennia after the Dark Lord's passing, immersing themselves in the dark side of the Force while awaiting his return.

By 137 ABY, Andeddu's Keep had fallen into a state of utter disrepair, but was still occupied by the Malevolence. They were present when the Sith Lord Darth Wyyrlok III arrived on behalf of his Master Darth Krayt in search of Lord Andeddu's ancient wisdom. The Keep was the scene of their demise, as Wyyrlok slew nearly all of them before forcing Gerlun, the only survivor of his wrath, to lead him to Andeddu's hidden sanctum.
