New Chapter, New Villains
Although set within context of the events of Episode II and
Episode III, the original story of Jedi Alliance allows for the
emergence of a set of villains new to most Star Wars fans, the
Nightsisters. Not new to the overall Star Wars universe, the
Nightsisters have been alluded to in many of the past Star Wars
novels and a few of the games, but Jedi Alliance gives fans and
players alike their best view of them to date.
The Nightsisters are a coven of 'Force witches' aligned with the
Dark Side, but not owing allegiance to the Emperor. Legend has it
that they were taught the ways of the Force in the ancient past
by a renegade Jedi. An outcast and thus unhampered by the
decisions of the Jedi council, this Jedi created an -like society
which ruled its far away homeworld with an iron fist in
isolation. Although their close contact with the Dark Side gives
the Nightsisters an appearance very similar to the Sith, they are
not part of the same sect. In fact, as the events of Jedi
Alliance unravel, it becomes clear that although they are a
danger to the Jedi they may pose just as much of a threat to the
growing power if the Emperor.
