Darth Molnek was born as Dromasdon on one of the Duros cityships orbiting their ruined planet. He is a Duros who, like most of his species, is tall and skinny and loves to tell stories. After the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Duro making Dromasdon a refugee, he fell in with a small group of Duros that escaped the invaders by going to a backwater planet. Somewhere shortly after the Yuuzhan Vong War ended, he was discovered by Lord Valentine and recruited into Darkness.
