He(Ulic) was born on the planet of Alderaan, his mother was a respected jedi master. However, he did
not go in for jedi training until he was nearly 20. However, before that he applied himself in many physical and mental challenges,
always learning more quickly than anyone else did and becoming the best at whatever he did, with no effort.
After
becoming an apprentice to Jedi Master Vodo Siosk-Baas, Ulic, along with two other apprentices were sent to the planet of Onderon,
to try and tame the dark side there. When on Onderon, they found a planet on the brink of war. The beastriders (people that
could control animals) rushed the palace and captured the princess, Ulic and the other two padawans fought their way to the
beastriders enclave and discovered that the Onderonians were in-fact the instigators of the conflict. However the dark side
was too strong, so Ulic studied from a sith holocron, intent on learning the ways of the sith so that he could infiltrate
them and destroy them from the inside. However, like all others who learned the ways of the dark side, Ulic fell to its power.
While on Iziz (the capital city of Onderon), Ulic killed the king, who was in-fact possessed by the spirit of Freedon Nadd.
When Nadd’s spirit emerged, he could sense Ulic’s power and declared that Ulic would be one of the greatest sith
that the galaxy had ever seen. Then Ulic was given a sith amulet by Aleema Keto (the same sort of amulet that Exar Kun wore,
it increased his power by a large amount), he then studied the dark side of the force under Aleema (who was a powerful darksider
and had all the knowledge that Freedon Nadd possessed, his holocron, scrolls etc). However, Mandalore, ruler of the Mandalorians
refused to bow down to Ulic and Aleema, Ulic went and defeated Mandalore, after this Mandalore pledged himself, and his troops
to Ulic.
Ulic got so strong that Exar Kun was able to sense his presence across the galaxy. Exar tracked Ulic down;
knowing that Ulic was the only person strong enough to defeat him. A furious duel occurred, with neither opponent gaining
an advantage; he duelled Exar Kun to a standstill, when the sith amulets that both of them wore activated and the spirit of
Marka Ragnos appeared. He declared Exar to be the master and Ulic to be his apprentice. Marka then said that the two of them
together would bring about the return of the golden age of the sith.
However, Ulic became arrogant and decided to
attack Coruscant before Exar decided it was time. Ulic was winning the battle when a subordinate betrayed him. After being
captured by the Republic, Ulic was put on trial before the senate, however Ulic was defiant and told them that they would
all die, these are his words: “You are puppets of tradition pretending to be important. The coming Golden Age has no
place for you. Your Republic is an empty self-indulgent diversion... signifying nothing. The lost glory of the Sith will turn
all of your supposed accomplishments to dust.” His confidence was rewarded as Exar soon came and freed him, while Exar
duelled with his old master; Ulic proceeded to slaughter the senate.
After being freed by Exar, the two sith lords
decided to go the jedi world of Ossus. The two sith went to Ossus undetected and stole ancient and powerful artefacts, scrolls
and holocrons from the jedi, and the jedi were unaware of it happening. Very impressive since there were thousands of jedi
knights and masters on the world. However, Exar blew up the sun of that world, alerting the jedi to the sith lords presence.
Ulic and Exar got seperated, and Ulic was cornered by Cay Qel-Droma (his brother) and Nomi Sunrider, after a furious duel,
Ulic killed his brother. After killing his brother, Nomi Sunrider removed his connection to the force, but she could only
do that because Ulic was distracted, weakened and shaken by the fact that he killed his brother. After this, Ulic fled and
went into exile for the next twenty years. However, he was to resurface on the galactic stage.
Even though he had lost
his connection to the force, Nomi Sunrider’s daughter, Vima, sought Ulic out to train her, even though her mother was
the most powerful jedi in the order and could train her or could get anyone else to train her, she chose Ulic. The two of
them crafted new lightsabers, which is very impressive since Ulic was able to create a lightsaber without using the force.
Since the jedi use the force to guide the crystals into alignment with each other, this is an impressive feat. After a while,
Ulic agreed and started to train her, however, he was tracked down again by Nomi Sunrider and another jedi, a Cathar named
Sylvar. Sylvar was a powerful jedi knight and had trained with Exar when he was still a jedi, she actually managed to wound
Exar while they were training, that is how he got the three scars across his face (oh and Exar and Sylvar were the same age,
it was not a knight beating up on a padawan). Later she fought against Exar and Ulic in the war, so she was powerful and had
loads of experience (imagine someone like Juhani, but twice as strong and you get Sylvar). She had also continued to train
during the 20 years Ulic was in exile. She came to hunt Ulic down and kill him, drawing her lightsaber, she tried to kill
him, yet even without the force (which is what the jedi use to control and guide their weapon), Ulic was able to defeat a
very powerful, experienced jedi master. After disarming her, Ulic turned to talk to Nomi, it was then that he was shot in
the back by the pilot that brought Sylvar and Nomi to see him. Even though he had no connection to the force, he still disappeared,
becoming one with it. Also, of great interest is what Nomi Sunrider said when she saw him disappear into the force, she said
that only jedi masters could do that, meaning the Ulic had become a master before he died.
Four thousand years after
his death, his spirit encountered Anakin Skywalker, who was on his quest to destroy the Dark Reaper, Ulic taught Anakin much,
as well as warning him to follow the light. This is very impressive since spirits get weaker the longer they are around, and
Ulic’s spirit was able to stay around for over 4000 years. So Ulic had incredible power, nearly equal to that of the
great Exar Kun.
