| - The Karrossi were the followers of the Pureblood Sith Lord Karros, also known as the Lord of Lore, who was arguably the greatest Sith philosopher of his time. Rather than take an apprentice, as per the usual traditions of the Sith order, Lord Karros instead cultivated a band of philosophically-minded followers with whom he endlessly debated on all manner of subjects related to the study of the Force. With the start of the Great Hyperspace War, these followers marched under the banner of Naga Sadow alongside their master. They were infamously remembered for failing to kill the Jedi they met and fought in battle, preferring instead to argue and discuss the nature of the Force with their enemies, a tactic the Jedi found disconcerting and the Sith leadership found irritating. Eventually, at their master's bidding, the group abandoned Sadow's cause and returned home to Korriban. Following his death, his followers named themselves "the Karrossi" in honor of their master, and erected a massive mausoleum on his homeworld of Korriban, wherein they lay his remains, lightsaber, and holocron. The Karrossi continued their master's studies into the nature of the Force after his death, though the cult, such as it was, eventually died out and ceased to exist sometime prior to the Mandalorian Wars, when the Jedi known as the Apostate entered the tomb and learned of the ancient cult's existence from the undead Force ghost of Lord Karros.
