His towering figure and black armour covering him from head to toe generates an imposing and intimidating visage even to other Imperials with any trace of his past as a proud Kaleesh masked by his new place in the Inquisitorius and Empire. By the time he had created a second lightsaber to compensate his inquisitor saber, he had taken the name of Tenth Brother and become a ruthless hunter for the Empire slaughtering all opponents with unparalleled savagery. Believing the Gods to have put him on the same path, Xekhad Eekal trained rigorously in the force and used the savage brutality of Kaleesh techniques with the calculation of lightsaber forms to wield the red blades with a unique and powerful combat style. This Sith lord, Xivhkalrainik, balanced his Kaleesh tradition with the Sith code to become a powerful force wielder in his bloody pursuit of power and godhood.

The Grand Inquisitor had told Eekal of a Sith Lord of old from Kalee who had, much like Xekhad, been captured during war and liberated from slavery due to his strong connection to the force.

It was only after the deaths of several more troopers and a meeting with the Grand Inquisitor did Xekhad willing begin his training in the dark side of the force. Due to his sensitivity to the force Xekhad was spared and though imprisoned, was to be trained as a member of the Inquisitorius, a task that proved most difficult. With his bare hands he crippled the Inquisitor and crushed his neck in his grip with the darksider’s failed attempt to face the Kaleesh giving the troopers an opportunity to stun and subdue the beast of a soldier. He simply meditated on the shore surrounded by bodies and pieces of shattered armour awaiting the enemy’s return so he could continue his fight as if it never ended. The hunt didn’t take long as Eekal remained exactly where the stormtroopers had left him. In wake of the unprecedented power and will to kill of the Kaleesh warrior, the troopers immediately reported their discovery and an Inquisitor was dispatched to hunt the unusual warrior. Xekhad however refused to surrender or kneel and began tossing stormtroopers across the ravaged land and crushing armour and plasteel with force unseen by the Imperials before. As the Imperial forces fell back, TIE bombers leveled the Kolkpravis defensive lines and scattered the Kaleesh fighters allowing the stormtroopers on the ground to regroup and easily pick them off.

During a massive battle on Kaleesh fortress world Oben, a warrior named Xekhad Eekal was butchering stormtroopers with explosives and blaster fire from his heavy repeating rifle crushing wounded troopers under foot and fighting with vehement rage. Amidst the fighting between the Kaleesh Kolkpravis and the Empire, one particular individual would be set on a path of intense fury and determination to wreak havoc and destruction.
