"Talia watched her twin simply freeze. She was paralyzed with fear. The Sleeper dragged her down with it."
―Asajj Ventress recalls Talia's twin sister's encounter with the Sleeper[3]

The twin sister of the Nightsister Talia was a female[3] Dathomirian Zabrak[2] hailing from the planet Dathomir,[1] who was a part of Mother Talzin's clan. When the twin underwent the Nightsister rite of passage by encountering the Sleeper, she was paralyzed with fear at the sight of the ancient creature before being dragged down into the depths of the water that the Sleeper dwelled in. Talia could only watch her sister's fate. When the Nightsister and Force-Sensitive Outcast Asajj Ventress began training the Jedi Quinlan Vos in the ways of the dark side[3] in 19 BBY,[4] she told him about the twin's encounter with the Sleeper.[3]

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 The episode "Nightsisters" states that Talia's homeworld is the planet Dathomir. As Talia and her sister were born as twins according to Dark Disciple, Talia's twin sister's homeworld must also be Dathomir.
  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 Star Wars: The Visual Encyclopedia establishes that Dathomirians are a subspecies of the Zabrak species. As "Nightsisters" shows Talia to be a Dathomirian, the same must also apply to her twin sister.
