You think you could muster up a Legacy section?- Not enough info for a Legacy section, if I were to do so, it would only comprise of the last sentence in the third paragraph.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 01:36, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
Please explain how the conclusion is drawn in reference 2. I'm not sure why that leads to a date of 552.- The assassination attempt on Darth Plagueis took place in 552 BBY, and the narration on Gravid's background takes place shortly after the event, in Part II of the novel.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 01:36, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
- I'm still not seeing it. Is it mentioned that the quote was said around five hundred years after the event? MasterFred(Whatever) 19:51, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
- Bah, I meant that the assassination attempt takes place in 52 BBY, sorry. Here's the full narration from the novel. A human Sith Lord whose short reign had elapsed some five centuries earlier, Gravid had been persuaded to believe that total commitment to the dark side would sentence the Sith Order to eventual defeat, and so had sought to introduce Jedi selflessness and compassion into his teachings and practice, forgetting that there can be no return to the light for an adept who has entered the dark wood; that the dark side will not surrender one to whom, by mutual agreement, it has staked a claim. Driven increasingly mad by his attempts to straddle the two realms, Gravid became convinced that the only way to safeguard the future of the Sith was to hide or destroy the lore that had been amassed through the generations—the texts, holocrons, and treatises—so that the Sith could fashion a new beginning for themselves that would guarantee success. Barricaded within the walls of a bastion he and his Twi’lek apprentice, Gean, had constructed on Jaguada, he had attempted as much, and was thought to have destroyed more than half the repository of artifacts before Gean, demonstrating consummate will and courage, had managed to penetrate the Force fields Gravid had raised around their stronghold and intercede, killing her Master with her bare hands, though at the cost of her arm, shoulder, and the entire left side of her face and chest.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 20:05, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, then the note needs to specify that the narration says "some five centuries earlier." We have no idea why the quote dates the events to 552 unless we know that the quote says "five centuries earlier." MasterFred(Whatever) 20:12, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

Toprawa
Please reload the infobox.Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:28, March 7, 2013 (UTC)- Done.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 19:33, March 7, 2013 (UTC)
I think a link for this apprentice would be appropriate: "She eventually took an apprentice of her own"Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 22:15, March 7, 2013 (UTC)- Done.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 05:57, March 8, 2013 (UTC)
Attack of the Clone
Seeing as how Gravid's actions against Bane's order might have had something to do with the Rule of Two, I think it would help to mention the Rule of Two somewhere at the end of the Bio.- Done.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 23:39, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
Do we have information to go in the "after-years" field of the second succession box?CC7567 (talk) 21:19, March 9, 2013 (UTC)- The exact date of Tenebrous' Master's reign is not known. Thanks for the review, CC!—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 23:39, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
- Addition: The Tenebrous Way merely makes it clear that a century prior to 67 BBY, Tenebrous himself was still an apprentice.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 23:40, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
- The exact date of Tenebrous' Master's reign is not known. Thanks for the review, CC!—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 23:39, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
Cadeth
Intro: "Gean learned that Gravid, ...., tried to destroy" - shouldn't this be "was trying," since Gravid was in the process of destroying the stuff when Gean attacked? Cade Calrayn 21:27, March 9, 2013 (UTC)- Corrected.—Jedi Kasra ("Indeed.") 23:39, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
