Raxsus Nuli
this ancient pirate tried to take over several star systems in the wake of the Great Sith War, believing that the Jedi Knights and the Old Republic were too busy with the Great Hunt to notice "smaller" criminals. However, Nuli was eventually apprehended by the Jedi, however. They discovered that Nuli had been stockpiling Verpine technology and defense systems, as part of his plan for planetary conquest.
