Legend

this was the alias used by a serial killer who went on a rampage during the early stages of the Clone Wars. After killing Ash B'risko, Kardem took the lives of three Twi'lek females. Kardem's Twi'lek victims had apparently been killed by a lightsaber, then their bodies had been immoliated in what seemed to be Force lightning. Thus, Vydel Dir'Nul was assigned the mission of tracking Kardem down and bringing the killer to justice. She was unable to stop the death of a fourth Twi'lek on Perilious, but it was on the Outer Rim world that the truth of Kardem's identity was exposed. Kardem was actually Vydel Dir'Nul, who had slipped over to the Dark Side of the Force when she discovered that Ash B'risko had taken a Twi'lek female as a lover. In her jealousy, Dir'Nul killed B'risko, then set out to avenge her loss by killing Twi'lek females. Another Jedi was dispatched to bring her in, but she killed him as well, adding a Jedi to Kardem's growing list of victims. Kardem remained free to kill again, until she was captured by Feskitt Bobb.
