* BigBadWannabe: Ku'ar Danar, aka Darth Dreadwar, from the Extended Edition. A human scholar who discovered Dark Side secrets essentially by accident, he manages to make an enormous impact on Galactic history by tutoring the rogue Jedi students who would one day be the first twelve Sith Lords, but every scheme he tries after that completely blows up in his face. His attempt to swallow his students' souls to become immortal backfires when they catch onto him, leaving him trapped in a Dark Side monolith for 2000 years; he then tries to trick [[Comicbook/TalesOfTheJedi Naga Sadow]] into freeing him, but Sadow correctly identifies him as a poser who likes the sound of his own voice a bit too much and sticks him right back in after learning what he needs from him. During the Galactic Civil War era he's freed yet again by the [[VideoGame/StarWarsEmpireAtWar Zann Consortium]] and is all prepared for his grand comeback... which turns out to consist of getting yelled at by [[Literature/LukeSkywalkerAndTheShadowsOfMindor the Sorcerers of Rhand]] for [[FlatEarthAtheist believing the Force to be entirely scientific in nature]] and finally being permanently sealed in a gilded eyeball by [[Literature/TheBlackFleetCrisis Nil Spaar]].
