Biography


Darth Krist-Ov was a Sith Lord featured in a play that the legendary Frenk actress Risha Synata produced. Synata's play was set at a black-and-red Sith locale, where Krist-Ov was confronted by his lover. She produced a blue lightsaber, and was determined to help realize Krist-Ov's destiny. Krist-Ov pulled out his crimson lightsaber and dueled her, asking what had happened to them and proclaiming that they could have shared a destiny. While the Jedi exclaimed that Krist-Ov took abode in the shadows, the Sith told her that she had shattered his heart and flung aside her lightsaber. As the tip of Krist-Ov's was lowered and poised to take her heart—and the Jedi told the Sith to do so—the Jedi summoned her blade while Krist-Ov bid his love farewell. Blade in hand, she closed her eyes in sadness and struck down the Sith, bidding Krist-Ov farewell in turn. The Jedi then wallowed in grief, kneeling down on the ground to hold Krit-Ov's body, questioning why he had to force her hand.

Synata, who based her plays on events in the galaxy and turned them into tragedies without regard for historical accuracy, performed the Jedi in the play aboard her cruiser during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Soon after the Senate hostage crisis in 21 BBY, Republic senators were invited by Synata to her cruiser near Caamas in the Cirius system. Amongst the guests was Padmé Amidala, who took her secret lover, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, for a two-day vacation aboard the ship. However, the pair were late, and thus missed the play of Darth Krist-Ov, which was performed in a theatre packed full of guests.

Personality and traits


Darth Krist-Ov was portrayed in Synata's play by a male humanoid actor. The humanoid's face was painted a pale white, and he had brown hair and red eyes and tattoos. Krist-Ov wished to share a destiny with his lover, and was heartbroken by the Jedi after he himself fell to the dark side of the Force. Later, the Sith Lord attempted to claim her heart after besting her in a lightsaber duel. Before striking the killing blow, Krist-Ov spoke his farewells to his lover, which left an opening for her to kill Krist-Ov.

Equipment


In Synata's play, Krist-Ov wielded a red lightsaber and wore black robes, which included a hood that concealed his face.
