shadow collective

The Shadow Collective was a large criminal alliance and rival Sith Order founded during the Clone Wars by the rogue Sith Lord Maul. Partly founded at the behest of Mother Talzin, Maul aimed to threaten the plans of the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious as well as to compete with him for galactic power. Among its goals, it sought to defeat both the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Galactic Republic. During the war, Maul rallied the forces of Death Watch, Black Sun, the Pyke Syndicate, the Hutt Clan, and the Nightbrothers to form a considerable base of power.
