Darth Sidious then revealed to Maul that the ordeal had only been a test. Calling upon his rage Maul prevailed in the end, and killed Silus. Sidious' proposal of replacing Maul with Silus alarmed and unnerved his apprentice, causing a near-fatal lack of focus that allowed Silus to gain the upper hand. A nullifier field surrounding the dueling ring prevented use of energy weapons, rendering Maul's lightsaber useless and forcing the pair into fighting using only the Force and unarmed combat tactics. He found the Drovian, and after showing him a holo-message of his master containing Sidious' proposal of replacing Maul with Silus the two began to fight. Sidious offered to take Silus on as his new apprentice should he be able to kill Maul. Silus was a hulking, savage brute using the Force for financial gain by pitting himself against other lesser opponents in a dueling ring. Should the Jedi feel it through the Force too, Sidious's presence could be threatened that, however, could just have been used to persuade Maul into doing his master's bidding. Sidious claimed Silus to be a threat to his plans, due to the surge in the dark side created by the Drovian. During his training the young Zabrak became exceptionally skilled with a saberstaff.Īt some point, Sidious pitted Maul against the Force-sensitive Drovian Silus, sending Maul to an unknown planet in the Outer Rim. Despite a traumatic childhood, Maul had a level of attachment to his master, and never once contemplated killing him- until his final test. Marked by Sith tattoos that covered his entire muscular body, the young Zabrak warrior was now the ultimate tool of the dark side. During his training, any show of fear was severely punished by Sidious, and any hint of mercy rewarded with cruelty.īy the time Maul was an adolescent, his master had already forged him into a weapon of pure hatred. Maul began training with Sidious at an early age, who indoctrinated in him the ways of the dark side of the Force.
There is little knowledge about Maul before he met Sidious and even his real name is a mystery.
At a young age a Zabrak child who would be later known as Darth Maul, was taken from his family by Darth Sidious.
