61. Mekel: Sith Student, Korriban

Mekel: a prospective Sith student, living at the Academy on Korriban during the Jedi Civil War.

Eager he was tormenting the Sith hopefuls, by seeing if they could go on the longest without food, water, or sleep. After he stormed off, Revan convinced the hopefuls to abandon the Sith, right down to the core.

Kept to his beliefs, Mekel met Revan again inside the tomb of Tulak Hord, in the Valley of the Dark Lords. Mekel was captured by the Sith hermit Jorak Uln.

Even after Mekel was set free by Revan's sacrifice, Mekel left the Sith Academy soon.

Little is known of his fate, except by statements he gave to Revan. In those statements, Mekel would not join the Jedi Order. He refused.
