A Failed Experiment: The Birth of Darth Mortis

Now in quiet seclusion on Taris, Orono attempted an experiment never before seen: to create life. This required a great deal of Force power and concentration, for if even one mistake was made, the consequences would be dire. This was the unfortunate result for Orono, for in the midst of the process, his feelings of contempt and anger at the Jedi Order were given form: that of a ravaged man in an iron vital suit. Taking the name Darth Mortis, this being immediately engaged Orono in battle, asking why he remained loyal to a weak and fragile Order. After fending off Orono, Mortis, fled to join the Sith Empire, warning Orono the day would come when he would embrace what he had created and join the Sith.
