Darth Lithos was a Dark Lord of the Sith who led a large population of Sith deserters after the collapse of the Sith Triumvirate. He and his group of about one thousand followers settled on an undiscovered planet known as Lycorax and eventually managed to find enough resources to turn it into a starship approximately 103,000 kilometers in length. They then began to travel throughout the galaxy, secretly gathering more followers.
