”The Sith need only the Force, but for the rest of the Empire machines ensure that everything moves in a smooth mannerism. Cybernetics make the broken bodies of our soldiers, our warriors, and our people stronger than before. With our machines of war alongside our superior training, who is to stop the Empire? We cannot breed millions of warriors within months, but we can build them with the right technology, and enough credits. Flesh is strong, technology makes it stronger still.” - [bDarth Baloq

Personality: Cold, calculating, and brutal, Baloq is known to do the harshest things to ensure his victory when in combat; whether that is actual combat, verbal debate, or even blackmailing an opponent he is known to make use of his knowledge and abilities to get what he wants. While he does spend much time focusing on making the best technologies for his power base and the Empire, he is also known to pause and appreciate the simpler things in life such as prepackaged sweets.

Background: The Sith known as Baloq was born on Khar Delba where the planet mirrored the Empire he was born into. Baloq had grown up watching the Sith War Behemoths, and Sith Warbirds being equipped with weapons for war. Baloq learned at a young age the ravages of war, seeing many acolytes and apprentices die due to the horrible wounds sustained by mishaps, or betrayals. It would come to a point where Baloq was recruited into the Sphere of Technology even against his Master's wishes when Baloq became a lord. No real love given to anyone who was wounded or injured, he did wish to see the Empire prosper, making a number of devices that were afforable and easy for common folk, or low end soldiers to replace missing limbs or critical parts of their body. When raised to becoming a Darth Baloq was able to to ensure that practices were put into place that any soldier missing limbs were given free prosthesis, and cybernetics to compensate so long as they do a six year stent in combat roles in the military. Darth Baloq himself had to replaced his own eyes as they were deteriorating due to being attacked by a rival, he'd replace his eyes with cybernetics shortly there after.
