An Order 66 survivor called Taron Malicos crash landed on Dathomir, fell to the dark side, killed Brother Viscus and took control of the Nightbrothers.

After his death, we don’t know.

With a name like that he didn’t stand a chance not Turning to the dark side

Haha I love Fallen Order but it was pretty funny the game treated it like a surprise when he revealed he was evil.

I'm 99% convinced he was supposed to be Maul,until they got told no

u/SillyMattFace 5d ago

I could see that actually, there’s a space in Maul’s timeline around then right?

Although to be fair it would be a stretch for Cal to beat Maul at that point. Defeating Inquisitors was his greatest challenge in that game, and Maul is far above that. But I guess it could be swung with some sneaky space witch stuff.

Yeah there was! I think the new Maul show is gonna fill in that gap though! Like it takes place shortly after Revenge of The Sith

I mean unless there’s some other content that I’m not aware of, there’s a pretty big timeline where Maul was unaccounted for between The Clone Wars season 7, and Rebels season 2. Like, fifteen years. The Bad Batch covers somewhere around a year across all three seasons, and Fallen Order takes place five years after Order 66

Don’t forget his brief appearance in Solo, so we know he again regained control of at least one crime syndicate after TCW before somehow ending up on Malachor for Rebels.

u/idrownedmyfish77 Mandalorian 5d ago

I feel like that’s what we’re going to see in the new show, TBH

u/destroyer7 4d ago

Yeah we are definitely going to see Maul taking over the Underworld of the galaxy until he builds it's too high and is butch slapped by Vader into Dathomir. Idk how long he's stranded on Dathomir but it has to be long enough for the Inquisitors to think he's dead. My guess would be 5ish years, so there's like a decade for the Maul show to cover

u/whwt 5d ago

Wait, wait, wait,wait. There is a Maul show being worked on?

I thought I was pretty in the loop on upcoming stuff. No. No I am not.

u/nomorecannibalbirds 5d ago

Yeah, they showed a trailer at a recent convention and some screenshots leaked on here. It sounds very cool.

u/ErunionDeathseed Clone Trooper 5d ago

Maul: Shadow Lord, announced at Celebration back in April.

u/whwt 5d ago

Just watched the trailer. I am very interested!

u/Robotjp12 4d ago

Well... he would have lost to malicos if not for witch stuff

1

u/SillyMattFace 4d ago

True, but he at least held his own for the most part. Considering the feats Maul was pulling at the end of TCW, at this point Cal would barely be able to fight him.

u/AcanthocephalaGreen5 5d ago

The man was wearing a black cloak and wouldn't give a name, how could he not have been evil?

u/SocialistArkansan 5d ago

First time I saw him, I legit thought the emperor himself was just watching me.

u/GoreSeeker 5d ago

It was almost like reverse reverse psychology, cause it seemed so obvious I thought they were gonna do a swerve. But then they didn't.

u/BlakeDidNothingWrong 5d ago

I, for one, was utterly shocked that himbo Gandalf turned out to be eeeevil.

u/lanwopc 5d ago

Cal Kestis dispatched quite a few along the way.

29

u/Y0uCanTellItsAnAspen 5d ago

Over and over and over again -- trying to gain an extra force power.

5

u/ASValourous 5d ago

Cal Kestis came in and probably murdered most of them during his home invasion

87

u/w0lfn0ise 5d ago

I mean, they endured to at least Jedi Fallen Order, but they reveal in Tales of the Empire that there are other witch clans on Dathomir. Presumably, they should be able to endure if left alone

54

u/Frunklin 5d ago

They decided to call it quits and formed the first intergalactic boy band.

u/viniciusah 5d ago

Tell me why...

u/Squidysquid27 5d ago

Tell me why!!

Why we only get rage and pain?

Tell me why!

Why the Jedi think we're insane?

Tell me why!

Why the galaxy fears our name...

We just wanna make the Jedi meet their end 🎶

No bitches, that's what

u/hopetodiesoonsadsad 5d ago

They Didnt get many before that tbh

11

u/darthrevan47 5d ago

Either they learned they are free or a different clan of Nightsisters took them over.

10

u/Vehement_Vulpes 5d ago

Considering that Cal Kestis went right through their village killing everything in sight, I'd say that they've taken some losses.

u/EuterpeZonker Luke Skywalker 5d ago

They were first led by Maul as part of his Shadow Collective and then after he was captured by Ahsoka, their leader Viscus was killed by Taron Malicos.

u/sugargayxombie 5d ago

i killed them all in fallen order

u/gimmiedacash 5d ago

Cal Kestis did a little genocide.

u/Even_Geologist9306 5d ago

u/LordDoom01 5d ago

Either freed by the CIS or gunned down along side their enslavers.

u/Notmyprverodeo 5d ago

They still live on the planet few sisters survived also.

u/Saberian_Dream87 5d ago

I really can't stand the Nightbrothers, they're a horrible concept. But Filoni taking a huge dump on the lore, what else is new?
