"Quiet! We are the Black Sun."
―Xomit refusing his offer with Maul[2]

Xomit Grunseit was a Falleen male and the leader of a Black Sun faction based on Mustafar during the galaxy-spanning Clone Wars.

Biography

At some stage prior or during the Clone Wars, Grunseit acquired a facility on the volcanic world of Mustafar in the Outer Rim. He would base his operations there, along with four other leaders of the faction. He would assemble a large force of soldiers loyal to him, including his Captain of the Guard Ziton Moj.[2]

Grunseit would be in his facility when Moj introduced Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla and the two Sith Lords Darth Maul and Savage Opress to him. Maul stated to him that he was forming an army and that he wished for Grunseit and his faction to join him. Grunseit mocked Maul and his allies and refused to ally with the Sith Lord.[2]

Grunseit ordered his guards to kill Maul, Vizsla and the others but Opress managed to kill one of the guards and throw the corpse on the table. Maul asked one final time and the Falleen stood up stating that they were the Black Sun. Opress then ignited his lightsaber and hurled it at Grunseit and the other Falleens. Grunseit watched as the lightsaber decapitated his advisors seconds before he was beheaded.[2]

Legacy

Grunseit's faction would continue to survive after his death, but they would ultimately be absorbed into Maul's new Shadow Collective.[2] Those soldiers would prove instrumental, as would Ziton Moj, in the takeover and battle of Sundari; the capital city of the New Mandalorian faction on Mandalore—sometime after Grunseit's death.[3]
