Many many years before the rise of the republic there were many sith and Jedi fighting they were in war.
Lord Stauffer was walking the halls of a Jedi cargo ship he stumbled upon most of the crew was dead by now but he was fallowing a few who think they can make it away alive. He turned the corner and a yellow blade was in his face. If it wasn't for his mask he might of lost an ear. With out even thinking he pushed the female Jedi away and drew his black saber that glowed a ghostly white on the edges and he would hold it backwards in his left hand so the hilt and blade almost rested on his forearm. When the Jedi tried to strike him he blocked it and then took a swing. She put her saber up to block it but he flipped his saber right side up and powered it down and move it past the yellow blade and reignited it and sliced her in two in one swift move and then picked up her saber and hung it from his belt. "Good fight " he said to the corpse as he shock her dead hand and kept walking to the bridge. There were a few sith assassins with him by now and they were setting up the hyper space jump to there main ship they have been living in. "Detach our ship and tell them to head home sir and then jump to hyper space." He said "yes my lord" said one of the assassins. A few moments later they were gone.
