Today I interviewed Darth Baras, Dark Lord of the Sith
Sphere of Military Offense (3698 BBY - 3641 BBY)

INTERVIEWER - Good afternoon, Darth Baras. Do you have a few moments to spare? I have some questions.

DARTH BARAS - If I must. Keep it quick, though. The emperor needs his voice.

INTERVIEWER - You are known as the Emperor's Voice. What are your assigned duties?

DARTH BARAS - Four hundred years ago, the Emperor created the dark council, to conduct the day to day operations
of the Sith Empire. As the Emperor's Voice, I relay orders from the Emperor to the dark councillors.

INTERVIEWER - So basically you serve the same function as a carrier pigeon. Like a messenger boy?

DARTH BARAS - (After thinking for a few moments) I'm going to kill Emperor Vitiate. I will not be his puppet.
I'm not some stupid bird.

INTERVIEWER - I hope I didn't get Emperor Vitiate into trouble. Changing the subject; you were chosen to lead the
peace talks, which eventually led to the Treaty of Coruscant. And yet during the talks, a colleague of yours, Darth Malgus,
led the sacking of the jedi temple. Sith forces bombed Coruscant. Why did the Sith Empire attack, even while discussing peace?

DARTH BARAS - We laid waste to Coruscant, and took control, so that we could negotiate from an advantage point.
One in which the jedi and republic would be more acceptable to our terms.

INTERVIEWER - Fair enough. Do you have any favourite foods?

DARTH BARAS - Not really. I don't care what I eat. As long as there are lots of it.

INTERVIEWER - A man after my own heart. How do you relax after a long day?

DARTH BARAS - I meditate upon the day's events, so that I may learn from them. I also meditate upon the code of the sith.

INTERVIEWER - As the Emperor's Voice, I assume that you travel often. Where do you call home?

DARTH BARAS - In central Kaas City on Dromund Kaas, I maintain a small dwelling. Big enough for me and my vast collection
of sith artifacts.

INTERVIEWER - What are your long term goals?

DARTH BARAS - To be emperor of the sith empire. Emperor Baras has a nice sound to it, doesn't it?
Speaking of which, I have a murder to plan.

INTERVIEWER - I would advise against it. Emperor Vitiate will be expecting you.

DARTH BARAS - No need to concern yourself. It's not like I am the only one planning his murder. After all, it's the nature
of the dark side. To have total power is the ultimate goal of every sith. That is why Emperor Vitiate expects that he will
be murdered eventually. I will bide my time, for now. Maybe a few years; perhaps a few decades. But some day I will kill him
and take my rightful place; upon MY throne.

INTERVIEWER - One final question. Do you have any pet peeves? Something that truly drives you crazy?

DARTH BARAS - Does the jedi order count as a pet peeve? Their very existence makes me want to vomit.

INTERVIEWER - Thank you kindly, my lord. I greatly appreciate your time.
