Darth Vader's First Apprentice Made the Sith's Fighting Style Even Darker
The first Sith apprentice of Darth Vader shown in the Star Wars franchise created her own lightsaber fighting style, nearly killing Luke Skywalker with it in the classic Marvel comics. Kharys, a S'kytri who met Darth Vader during the Clone Wars when he was Anakin Skywalker, became his unofficial Sith pupil following the Galactic Empire’s autocratic coup of the Galactic Republic at the end of the war. Kharys was a deadly dark side user and lightsaber-wielder, creating a fighting style that took advantage of her species’ ability to fly. The clash took place in the now out of canon Star Wars Legends continuity, but may well be mined for future canon stories.
