Legend

this ancient Sith Lord was one of the most powerful of his era. He trained the Sith magician Naga Sadow while in his prime. However, he was defeated in battle by Marka Ragnos and fated to die. Simus had other plans, and used the Dark Side magic of the Sith to preserve himself. His head was encased in a specialized, crystalline container, and he existed this way for another century before Ragnos died. When Ludo Kressh and Sadow began fighting over the rulership of the Sith Empire, it was Simus who urged Kreshh to consider the possibility that Jori and Gav Daragon were truly hyperspace mappers, and not advanced scouts for the Old Republic. When Kressh refused, Simus gave his support to his former student, Naga Sadow. This trust proved to be short-lived, for Sadow had Simus killed as part of the deception surrounding his plans to become the Dark Lord of the Sith.
