Grey, leaning to the Dark Side


« Reply #45 on: February 03, 2016, 10:54:45 PM »

Zannah remained a hottie. Talon was left unscathed, but I think that was nerd-boys being nerd-boys. Malgus was pretty handsome (outside the grey skin) until he tried to stop a missile with his face, and then had a thermal detonator go off by his head, and then got Force slammed so hard into a mountain it left a hole.

According to what I've read in Revan, older members of the Sith Order do show the "fugly" effects of the Dark Side. Darth Nyriss was supposed to have shown these ravages to such a degree that even her smile made Lord Scourge want to cringe. (Yikes)


Lol Malgus is awesome.



It's also worth noting that there was a near immediate change in Anakin's looks (most noticeable in his eyes)  after he fell to the dark side.








And if you'll notice, In ROTS Vader didn't have the typical gray skin look commonly associated with the Sith,



Whereas he did in ROTJ -- obviously the result of years of DS use.

I think Vader's skin coloration change was due mostly lack of exposure to any natural light source for years.  Fairly certain that his meditation chamber where he could remove his mask for a short time probably didn't have a sun lamp.

And I liked that Satel had to hit Malgus twice to shove him through the mountain.  Then he goes and hunts down two more jedi, one of whom drops a building on him, before Malgus literally incinerate him with Force Lightning.  Then he goes and gets medical attention.

It's also worth noting that there was a near immediate change in Anakin's looks (most noticeable in his eyes)  after he fell to the dark side.

I believe this change in the eyes was due to being "in the moment" of channeling the Dark Side, because after he's done killin' his eyes revert back to their normal color.

And if you'll notice, In ROTS Vader didn't have the typical gray skin look commonly associated with the Sith,

Whereas he did in ROTJ -- obviously the result of years of DS use.

It's also also worth noting, that Vader didn't have any skin left after the Battle of Mustifar.

I think Vader's skin coloration change was due mostly lack of exposure to any natural light source for years.  Fairly certain that his meditation chamber where he could remove his mask for a short time probably didn't have a sun lamp.

Vader still has pigment in his skin in ESB, and apparently it is just the lighting in the docking bay that gives him the grey coloring. Also, the Emperor in ROTJ was pale, but not grey. I feel that they kind of screwed up the continuity in ROTS by making his skin too grey.

And I liked that Satel had to hit Malgus twice to shove him through the mountain.  Then he goes and hunts down two more jedi, one of whom drops a building on him, before Malgus literally incinerate him with Force Lightning.  Then he goes and gets medical attention.

From what little I've managed to read about Malgus, he is not one to be underestimated. According to the Book of the Sith, his rage was so substantial that after he is told of a comrade's death that his scream was enough to make the ears of the bridge crew bleed. Also while this was going on, the Force was literally shredding Republic battle ships. Whether or not this effect was conscious, I cannot say. But it does go to further prove that Malgus had serious anger issues. Wink

Technically they were just space superiority fighters, and he just over loaded their fuel cells so they exploded, but yes, he was grumpy at the time.

I don't think I'd say he had anger issues, since most of the time he was able to channel his rage into something useful.  I don't know if you've seen th cinematic of him getting blasted into the mountain, but he's clearly using his anger and rage to fight against Satel's force push and until she Hadooken's him with the second blast, he's actually winning, pulling himself away from the mountain.

Here's the Wookieepedia article on him, and it's a very good read: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Malgus

Seen it many times. I wasn't being serious about having issues, but one has to admit that his anger is palpable. You can see it in how he fights; in the expressions on his face.

Kham-ryn described to me from his study of the character that Malgus was a being of pure anger/hatred (can't remember the exact term he used). I gathered from that, that Eleena was the only being he truly had any other feelings for.

That is really cool. I would love to get one made where it was my character's holocron.

The sith holocrons are cooler looking. They are shaped like pyramids instead of stupid cubes. It is said in the Book of Sith that the sith holocrons are designed to incorporate great power.
