s of hidnapk side. Despite this rather traumatic childhood (if it could be called that), Maul adored his Master, and never once contemplated killing him — until his final test.

Sth Maul was trained by Darth Sidious to be a master of Form VII, which draws on emotions and the dark side. Unlike the traditional dueling techniques of most Jedi, Maul combined his swordsmanship with incredible acrobatic and martial arts and hand-to-hand combat skills, making him a nearly unstoppable dervish of destruction. Maul was a master of the fighting style teräs käsi as well as an adept in the Jar'Kai style of wielding a lightsaber in each hand. When fighting multiple opponents, Maul extended the second blade of his double-bladed lightsaber to form a saberstaff, doubling his lethality. Maul often used this to catch opponents by surprise, as few were prepared for the extra blade. Maul had constructed this weapon himself, using ancient plans stored within one of the Sith Holocrons the Sith still possessed. He had based his lightsaber design upon Exar Kun's, though he modified the design slightly so as to make the weapon better fit his own fighting style.

ror for his master, killing politicians, crime bosses, merchants and warlords. Maul's very appearance had been carefully conceived to put fear into the heart of the Sith's enemies and unwitting allies. His victims included Neimoidian Hath Monchar, the Black Sun leader Alexi Garyn, the Nightsister Mighella and all of the Black Sun vigos and their bodyguards. Yet despite his untold successes, Maul loved victory over the Jedi, which he achieved on several occasions, against Barco Trellius, Roro Fergus, and Ji-Dis Flar as well, as Jedi Padawan Darsha Assant and her Master Annon Bondara. Da

eliminate the two Jedi, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, who had been dispatched by the Galactic Republic to settle the conflict and protect the queen. Maul just barely failed in this task on Tatooine and he thirsted for revenge. Fighting Tusken Raiders and Togorian pirates put a drain on him by the time he left Tatooine. Darth Mon Jinn and Obi-W remarkably able to fend off both of his Jedi opponents with the help of his double-bladed lightsaber. After separating the Jedi Master from his Padawan, Maul finally succeeded in slaying Jinn. However, overconfidence, a common personality trait among the Zabrak species, led to Maul's own immediate downfall when he challenged Obi-Wan. The young Padawan, enraged at his master's death, struck out at Maul with a furious assault of lightsaber swipes but by doing this, he put himself at great risk. Maul eventually Force-pushed the vengeful Obi-Wan into a pit. He taunted the padawan, who dangled helplessly by a ledge, watching his lightsaber fall down into the abyss. But by calming his anger over Jinn's death and connecting with the Force, Kenobi was able to make a spectacular leap out of the shaft and Force-guide Jinn's lightsaber into his own hands. Wasting no time in striking as he landed from his jump, Obi-Wan quickly cleaved the astounded Maul in two before he could react. Maul barely had time to grimace as his body tumbled down the shaft in two pieces. Kahmf reveals that he regarded Maul as "Iridonia's greatest champion" and upon his death at Theed somehow salvaged the Sith's brain, resuscitated it, and installed it in his lab with a device granting it the ability to generate a "solid-state hologram" projection of its former body. Luke declares that "artificially keeping him alive is causing an unnatural disturbance in the Force" and scares Kahmf away before switching off the life-support system sustaining Maul's disembodied brain. i, Qui-Gon also would abort his master's Form II teachings for Ataru. Not seeing the modern practicality in the sword combat style of Form II, Qui-Gon applied himself to Form IV, since on field missions it is endurance and avoidance that are a Jedi's best allies. Still, Qui-Gon's exposure to the swordsmanship of Form II made him a uniquely talented combatant. Though never as unnervingly fast as Yoda or as skilled as Dooku, Qui-Gon was regarded among them as one of the most adept swordsman in the Jedi Order. Though in his earlier years he might have been able to out-spar Mace Windu, time would eventually catch up with Qui-Gon. He would pass his Ataru skills on to his young protege, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and with the Padawan would duel with the Sith Lord Darth Maul.

Inherent in the strength of Ataru is its very weakness. This form requires space in which to operate. When cornered in the Theed Reactor Core on Naboo by Darth Maul, this deficiency was made dramatically clear. Without ample space in which to move, Qui-Gon was no match for the concentrated vicious attacks of the Sith Lord. This, paired with the Sith Lord's youthful vigor, were what led to Qui-Gon's death, being skewered by Darth Maul. Fortunately for the Jedi, Maul neglected to kick Qui-Gon's lightsaber into the melting pit, and Obi-Wan was able to kill Maul with it.
