The Rakata Plague

The Rakata Plague was a strange illness that spread across the galaxy affecting only the Rakata. It was both deadly and severed the connection to the force and was the main reason behind the fall of the Infinite Empire. It is not confirmed, but the Architect was working on a permanent solution to end the Rakata and gave certain hints that a biochemical weapon would be the only option to ensure both their fell and prevent them from striking back. It is believed in the Ordo that he was the mastermind behind the Rakata plague and made many fear him for it. The devastation was staggering, bringing down an empire controlling almost the entire known galaxy.
