[edit] Biography
Qordis, along with Kopecz and Kas'im, was one of the strongest Sith Lords who pledged themselves to Kaan when the latter formed the Brotherhood of Darkness. It was believed that he had been training the powerful Zabrak Sith Sirak for as long as twenty years by that point.
At the Academy, Qordis was heavily involved in the training of the famed Darth Bane, the Sith who established the Rule of Two as the most important Sith tenet. However, Qordis's rivalry with Kopecz, who had brought Bane to the Academy, distanced him from the young apprentice, and possibly brought him to dislike him. This later contributed to Bane's decision to destroy the Brotherhood. After Bane defeated Sirak in a lightsaber duel, Qordis gave him a lightsaber crystal as a sign of appreciation from the Brotherhood. Bane however, angrily confronted him, claiming Kaan had made the Sith weak. He stormed off to the Valley of the Dark Lords where he believed he would be able to learn of the ancient Sith's power. Qordis initially expected him to die, but Kas'im convinced him that Bane would return. Upon his return, Bane defiantly announced that he was leaving to discover the true power of the Sith, even though Qordis tried to convince him to join the Brotherhood on Ruusan by promoting him to Dark Lord of the Sith. He took Qordis' ship, theValcyn, and took off headed to Lehon. Days later, after killing Kas'im and surviving being poisoned by Githany, Bane headed to Ruusan. There, Qordis saw the power his student was able to unleash and approached him clandestinely, petitioning him to overthrow Kaan and take control of the Brotherhood. Bane, who planned to destroy the Brotherhood, was disgusted. He used his powers to lift Qordis in the air and slowly clenched his fist, crushing the Sith's body and denying him an "honorable" death in battle, as Qordis had requested.
[edit] Legacy
Bane would later learn that Qorids had embezzled funds from the Brotherhood to help pay for his avarice, and that he used the InterGalactic Banking Clan to store the funds, which Bane would later tap into. Sometime during Qordis' life, he acquired the Scroll of Freedon Nadd and made notes within containing the location of the Tomb of Freedon Nadd, which much like his embezzled funds, came into the hands of Bane after being found by his apprentice, Darth Zannah.
Qordis's spirit was later able to contact Bane on Onderon's moon, Dxun, after causing his ship to crash there out of envy of Bane's survival. His spirit may have been destroyed along with Kaan's by Bane after emerging from Nadd's tomb.
