CHAMPIONS OF THE FORCE DARTH NIHILUS ::: Continuity Canon Sith Lord. The only real difference between the KOTOR and COTF Nilihus is that one wears a utility belt, while the other does not. We will deal with the COTF Nilihus first. This is the Sith Lord who is portrayed with a Utility belt and the tattered robes.


THE TOP OF THIS PAGE IS DEDICATED TO THE CHAMPIONS OF THE FORCE/COTF DARTH NIHILUS.
