Year released: 2011

Appears in set 7957-1, Sith Nightspeeder

Savage Opress was a Force-sensitive Dathomirian Nightbrother who became a Sith apprentice under Darth Tyranus and later became a Sith Lord, apprenticed to his brother, the renegade Sith Lord Maul, during the Clone Wars.

Originally a tribal leader on Dathomir, Opress was handpicked by the Nightsister Asajj Ventress to become her "mate" and servant following her grueling tests of Selection, as part of her bid for revenge on her former Master, the Sith Lord Count Dooku. In accordance with their plot against Dooku, Mother Talzin and her Nightsister witches employed their dark magic to grant Opress fearsome abilities, placing him under their control. After murdering his beloved brother Feral in a display of loyalty to Ventress, Opress entered the Clone Wars as a dark acolyte, serving as an enforcer in Dooku's Confederacy of Independent Systems.

However, Opress soon saw he was being used by Ventress and betrayed both her and Dooku and fled, being guided on a quest by Mother Talzin to seek out his lost brother. Opress was led to the junkyard world of Lotho Minor, where he found his brother Maul half-mad. He brought his brother back to Talzin, who restored both his mind and his legs. She then left the pair together as Maul became reconnected with the changed world around him. He and Savage then embarked on a quest of death and chaos, seeking vengeance on Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Seeking to take everything he loved from him, Maul conquered Mandalore and killed his lover, Satine Kryze. Opress stood by his brother as he enacted his revenge, but they were soon faced by Maul's old master, Darth Sidious. Sidious fought Maul and Savage, and ultimately killed Savage Opress in battle, leaving Maul to mourn his brother's death.
