Mass Shadow Generator
"The threat posed by the hyperspace signatures of celestial bodies--or "mass shadows"--is not insignificant. Although these phenomena are naturally-occurring, the mass shadow's devastatingly destructive power could be manually generated, if one so desires. All that's required is a skillful inventor... one undeterred by the number of lives that triggering such a cataclysm would undoubtedly cost.
It has been done before, more than three hundred years ago. Out of desperation to end the Mandalorian Wars--or simple malice, one cannot say--Revan ordered the Jedi general Meetra Surik and Bao-Dur, a technical specialist in the order, to activate a mass shadow generator over Malachor V.
Malachor was reduced to a fractured collection of shattered wasteland. The ships locked in battle over the planet, Mandalorian, Republic, Jedi... all were crushed, like blister fleas, into Malachor's broken surface. But Darth Nihilus, Lord of Hunger, did not just survive the catastrophe... he evolved. Nihilus transcended the atrocities inflicted upon his physical form and arose as the embodiment of raw power.
One can only wonder--if a Sith, possessing my potency and strength in the dark side, were to be purified by the chaos of a mass shadow... what would emerge from the remains?"
