King Ommin Respect Thread

No Caption Provided

King Ommin is a descendant of the Dark Lord of the Sith, Freedom Nadd. He was a powerful Sith Sorcerer who battled Jedi such as Nomi Sunrider and Ulic Qel-Droma during the Freedom Nadd uprising. So, respect him, and stuff.

I'm going to be making some of the images smaller in this thread for the sake of saving space, so if the text is too small to read just open the image up in a new tab and zoom in, or click on it.

Dark Side Influence over Onderon

King Ommin subjected Onderon to powerful spells during the Uprising, sufficient to tilt the city's alignment in the Force heavily toward the Dark Side.

Ommin dominated the populace of Onderon with the Dark Side.

King Ommin rose to power in the same manner as his ancestors of the last three centuries: by dominating the populace of Onderon with the dark side.

- Tales of the Jedi Companion

The Dark Side permeated Onderon.

The Dark Side had a "curiously powerful" presence on Onderon, which "poisoned the atmosphere".

An "invisible malevolence" was being concentrated against a group Jedi (Qrrrl Toq, Kith Kark, The Droma Brothers, Nomi Sunriders and others), which left them "haggard" and sapped their life force.

Sith Sorcery

Freedom Nadd's spirit instructs Ommin in the ways of Sith Sorcery, helping him reach his potential in order to dominate Onderon's populace with the Dark Side. I've underlined the most prominent parts for those who want to speed-read the excerpt.

"Good," the wispy image of Freedon Nadd hissed, the sibilance slicing through the undercity's maze of passageways.

King Ommin concentrated harder, bolstered by his mentor's praise. He could indeed reel the subtle ebbs and flows of the thronging masses in the city above, just as Nadd had said. As he continued to absorb the sensations of millions of beings engrossed in their daily activities, he began to notice tiny pinpricks of violence and hatred erupting randomly across the whole of Iziz. The dark outbursts called to him, drew his thoughts near, asked him for reinforcement.

Ommin felt a wave of power rush through him, felt the dark side intertwine with his own essence, and he knew then that he could command the Force to do as he willed. His hands gripped his throne's knobbed armrests tighter and he plunged deep into himself, losing his corporeal existence to embrace his metaphysical. The world about him quickly faded into a misty coalescence, giving him the slight discomforting feeling of being disconnected. But the emotion lingered for only a moment before he brushed it aside and focused on his current ambition.

He surged forward, delving deeper into himself, until he came to what he could only describe as a barrier. It seemed to ripple as if constructed of gossamer, and yet it possessed a strength of a tempered steel alloy. Ommin paused before the barricade, suddenly unsure.

“Weakling!” Nadd spat from the periphery of Ommin’s consciousness. “You will never reach your potential if you falter at the slightest obstacle. Beyond that wall lies your destiny. Beyond that wall lies the full power of the dark side. If you do not have the strength to reach it, then you do not deserve to become a Sith sorcerer!"

Ommin's anger flared. He'd come so far in so short a time, and yet Nadd expected more - more than any Onderonian could possibly offer. Had Ommin's ancestors penetrated the Force so quickly? And if they had, how could they have survived? The dark side offered much, but stole away more. Ommin did not know if he could give that much of himself.

Nadd's voice rose up once more. "Your doubt will be your downfall, Ommin." This time the words held an air of seduction, a warm, inviting tone that Ommin felt inexplicably drawn to. "You are ready. There is nothing to fear." The hiss of Nadd's voice seemed to swirl about his mind, settling somewhere to the side, both within and without of the confines of Ommin's consciousness.

"Strike now!" Nadd shouted suddenly. "Come to the dark side now, when it calls, or you will have failed. The dark side will forever shun you, the weak-minded fool who believed he had the right to wield its power!"

Ommin had sacrificed more than he had thought he ever would in his quest to make the dark side his ally. And now all of his efforts hung on a single moment, his one chance to prove his worthiness, as if all he had done before meant nothing. The dark side had torn away so much of his life. He could not let it slip from his grasp, laughing at how it had pillaged him and left him nothing more than a broken husk bereft of its life essence. He could not let that happen.

His anger became both his weapon and his armor as he bludgeoned the barrier before him. The wall rippled wildly under the attack, but did not give way. Ommin redoubled his effort, pulled the hatred of everything - including the dark side - from the depths of his soul, channelling it into his blows. Then suddenly the wall ripped open. Before Ommin could react, he was sucked through, carried by a force more powerful than he could have ever imagined. The dark side immediately flooded his being, becoming one with every cell in his body.

The image of the city above returned to him then, and he assaulted the pinpricks of evil scattered across cityscape with flares of dark side energy. The already vile incidents instantly grew worse, the individuals involved momentarily filled with a foreign hatred.

Ommin watched in both awe and horror. He realized then that he was invincible with the dark side at his back. Nothing could topple him. Nothing could harm or destroy him ever again, not even the dark side itself.

His normal vision returned, and he saw the ghostly form of Freedon Nadd hovering close by. Ommin felt stronger than he ever had, and he wanted to show his mentor what he had accomplished.

He pushed himself up from his ancient throne, and then collapsed under his own weight, his legs no longer able to support him.

Nadd made a deep, staccato sound that Ommin could only guess was laughter. "The dark side does not come without its price," the Sith spirit said. "You have power over the Force, but in exchange you have lost power over your own body."

Nadd had warned him of the dark side's initiation tithe a decade ago when his training had begun. He couldn't remember whether he had chosen to accept that price or whether he had purposely sealed it away in the recesses of his memory. It didn't matter now, anyway. He had finally reached his goal - the dark side belonged to him.

Unfortunately, he belonged to the dark side as well.

In the end, the dinner, which would have been attended by the king and queen and various wealthy and politically strong individuals, had to be postponed. An infuriated King Ommin, though frail from the onset of a strange wasting disease, obliterated Kad in a wave of dark side energy as Novar watched in horror and fascination.

Ommin summons the spirit of Freedom Nadd from Chaos, and it is also explained that the reason behind the city of Onderon being filled with the Dark Side is because of Ommin practicing Sith Magic, taught to him by Freedom Nadd.

After being separated from his exoskeleton by Ulic Qel-Droma, Ommin is killed by Freedom Nadd's spirit. Nadd notes that all the spells being cast over the battlefield and over Jeth were being sustained by Ommin simultaneously, and that Jeth is freed from his bindings upon Ommin's death. This is impressive given the lack of strain (if any) shown by Ommin throughout conflict.
