Map of the Sith Academy

Valley of Dark Lords

As you enter from the Valley of Dark Lords, Darth Sion is meditating at the hub of the academy. He stops and stands, speaking to two Sith assassins who appear to either side of him:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: Her apprentice is here. Find him. KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: She is here. Find her.
It's a trap!

Started the "Trapped" Quest on Korriban
Journal Entry Added Trapped
When you entered the Sith Academy, the door locked behind you. Search the Academy to find clues of the Jedi Master who came here, and find a way out.

The door in the middle of the top wall behind you is now locked, and you're unable to change your party at this time. A Tuk'ata attacks from each side, with a Deadly Tuk'ata straight ahead: all have Force Resistance 32, so they'll always resist Force powers unless you're level 11 or higher.

Across the room from the door is a hallway leading to the hub of the academy: two Sith assassins are at the entrance to the hub at the top of the slope: these assassins are dark side, so like all dark characters (Alignment 40 or less) in the academy they're granted Saves: All +35 (light characters (Alignment 60 or more) are granted Saves: All -35).

There are two alcoves to either side of the hallway beyond containing beds; the front left and both back alcoves also contain locked footlockers. As you pass under the arch separating the front and back, four Sith assassins will appear, two in front and two behind.

The hallway exiting the hub to the right leads to the Training Room and Detention Room on the right side of the academy, but the doors to both are currently locked.

Another hallway exits the lower end of the hub, opposite the entrance from the valley. At the top of the slope is a door which can be bashed or unlocked (but not blasted):

Security Door Lock DC 21 (1) Bash Resist 5 Vitality 20

The hallway beyond is blocked by rubble. As you go back down the slope, a door closes (but does not lock) at the bottom, and three Sith assassins appear to block your return to the hub.

Student Terminal

The hallway exiting the hub to the left ultimately leads to a Sealed Door at the left end of the academy, but first it passes through what was the student dormitory. There's a bag to the right at the bottom of the slope, just before the first of two junctions.

Item(s) Received Bag
  • Datapad: Tuk'ata
  • Belt
These Tuk'ata are getting to be a major obstacle in our hunt for Sith holocrons. We've been trying to use our Stealth Generators to sneak past them, but then some fool bumped into one of them wandering around and got himself eaten. Now the taste of fresh blood has driven the damned beasts wild!

The hallways branching off to either side of the two junctions each have two alcoves in the left wall containing beds. There's a usable computer panel in the first alcove to the left of the first junction, with a locked footlocker in the second alcove; to the right of the first junction there's only another locked footlocker in the second alcove, but as you approach it two Sith assassins appear in front of you.

Unless one of your party has minimum Computer Use rank 12, you'll need to proceed to the second junction before using the computer panel. Three Tuk'ata and four Deadly Tuk'ata roam the second hallway: there's a locked footlocker in the first alcove to the left of the second junction, and another in the second alcove to the right.

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: LEVEL ONE TEST. MESSAGE FOLLOWS...

The Level One test contains 5 questions. At the end of the test you will be told how many questions you answered correctly. To proceed to level 2, you must correctly answer 4 questions. It is recommended that you study the learning material in the library before proceeding.

Level One test
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: QUESTION ONE:

Which of the following Sith Lords is not entombed upon Korriban?

ENTER RESPONSE:
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. Naga Sadow. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Freedon Nadd.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. Ajunta Pall. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 5. Tulak Hord.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. Marka Ragnos.

If you thoroughly explored the Valley of Dark Lords before entering the academy, then you'll have found the tombs of Naga Sadow, Ajunta Pall, Marka Ragnos and Tulak Hord here, so only Freedon Nadd is not entombed upon Korriban.

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: QUESTION TWO: A number of Sith Lords conducted the burial ritual of the great Marka Ragnos. The ritual required all Sith Lords in attendance to be evenly spaced in a perfect circle. Ludo Kressh led the ritual from the coveted 6th position, directly opposite Simus in the 16th position.
How many Sith Lords conducted the burial ritual?
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. Two. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 5. Twenty-one.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. Sixteen. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 6. Twenty-two.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. Eighteen. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 7. Thirty-two.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Twenty.

There are 9 positions between the 6th and 16th positions (7th to 15th), and if those positions are directly opposite, and all positions are evenly spaced, then there must be another 9 between them on the other side of the circle: that's 20 positions in total (6th + 9 + 16th + 9).

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: QUESTION THREE:

Which of the following creatures would be *least* suitable as a pet for a Sith Master?

ENTER RESPONSE:
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. Hssiss. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Gizka.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. Shyrack. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 5. Boma Beast.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. Tuk'ata.

You should already have encountered hostile Hssiss, Shyrack and Tuk'ata on Korriban, and if you've traveled to Onderon then you'll have encountered hostile boma beasts there. If you've played Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic then you'll know that gizka aren't hostile, and thus they're the least suitable as a pet for a Sith Master.

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: QUESTION FOUR:

Which of the following statements is *not* a paradox:

ENTER RESPONSE:
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. The student teaches his instructor who teaches his student.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. I always lie. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. This statement is false.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. To be powerful, one must have an army - to have an army, one must be powerful.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 5. Is "no" the answer to the question?

A paradox is a logically self-contradictory statement: I always lie is not a paradox, because while it cannot be true, it can be a lie (I can lie without always lying).

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Computer Panel: QUESTION FIVE:

The path to breaking chains is...

ENTER RESPONSE:
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. passion - strength - power - victory. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. victory - power - strength - passion.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. strength - passion - victory - power. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. power - victory - passion - strength.

Learning the Sith code can help you pass the Level One test when you return to the student terminal. Round the corner to the left of the computer panel, there's a military locker with a bag to its right in the back left corner.

Security Military Locker Lock DC 21 (1) Bash Resist 5 Vitality 15

Do not bash this locker: any damage triggers an explosion that destroys it, knocking you down and inflicting 50 points of piercing damage on Normal. Surprisingly, blasting it with a mine doesn't cause it to explode.

Item(s) Received Military Locker
  • Thorium Charges
Item(s) Received Bag
  • Datapad: Thorium Charges
This a set of old thorium charges, a high explosive more powerful than a thermal detonator. The charges are small but could easily blow holes in even the thickest stone. Contractors, READ THIS FIRST! Use the Thorium charges in this locker only as a last resort to clear a blocked door. This structure is very old and unstable, and cave-ins could damage or destroy the artifacts we were sent here to collect.

These charges can be used to open the Sealed Door at the left end of the academy.

Sealed Door

At the left end of the academy beyond the second junction in the hallway, it ends in a door around the corner to the left. A deadly Tuk'ata stands before a chewed Twi'lek corpse in the corner, and when you reach it four Sith assassins appear behind you.

Experience Points (XP) Received:
  • 300 Killed Deadly Tuk'ata (level 27)
Experience Points (XP) Received:
  • 300 Killed Sith Assassin (4) (level 27)
Item(s) Received Chewed Twi'lek Corpse This is a work log of a Twi'lek treasure hunter. Of interest is the last entry: "Ayjae thinks I'm wasting my time, but I will make it past this damned door, even if I have to blow it to bits with the Thorium charges! We were sent here for the holocrons, and I refuse to be the only one to return empty handed."

The first time you try to open the door, the other two in your party can comment:

KotORII Icon Bao-Dur.png Bao-Dur: Someone did quite a job on this door. Reinforced and welded shut! We're not getting through, that's for sure.
KotORII Icon Atton.png Atton: Hmmm, I'll bet even the Ebon Hawk couldn't blast through this door.
KotORII Icon Handmaiden.png Handmaiden: A lightsaber was used to fuse this door shut. KotORII Icon Disciple.png Disciple: A lightsaber was used to fuse this door shut.
KotORII Icon Visas.png Visas: A dark Jedi left her impression here. This door has been sealed intentionally.
KotORII Icon Mira.png Mira: When someone goes through this much trouble to seal a door, it usually means there's something important on the other side.
KotORII Icon HK-47.png HK-47: Observation: It would take more firepower than we have to access the room beyond this door.
KotORII Icon T3-M4.png T3-M4: Boo... Bee tweet beep? KotORII Icon Dialog.png Door: This heavily reinforced door has been fused shut.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. No, T3, I don't think we can get through this door.

Otherwise:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. Goto, can you fit through the opening above the door? KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. [Use thorium charges to open door.] KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. [Leave door alone.]
KotORII Icon G0-T0.png G0-T0: Negative. Even if I were small enough to pass through the opening, I can't hover that far above the ground.

You can find thorium charges in a military locker at the back of the Library. There's a Sith holocron by the back wall opposite the now open door. If Darth Revan wasn't redeemed, then a hologram is displayed:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Bastila: It has been months since Revan's full memories returned, and unrest grows amongst the Sith.
Dialog
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Bastila: They're convinced Revan will not return, so they fight amongst themselves. The betrayals mount. And no matter who wins, the Sith will lose. There is no one left with the power to control the Forge, though many have tried. I have watched them be devoured, their life drained from them as they attempt to tap into its power. Knowing what we do of the Builders and their fate, I am convinced that Revan did not intend us to keep the Star Forge. To use it would mean the end of the Sith... and the end of the Force.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Bastila: I have done as Revan asked and remained here, but he has been gone for too long. I will wait no longer. Whoever survives this Sith Civil War shall not be one I wish to follow. There is only Revan. Only he can shape this galaxy as it is meant to be shaped. He lives still, this I know. If he will not return, then I shall find him and discover why. I cannot remain here, not knowing. I've become certain there is something he remembered in the Unknown Regions. It is a technique he learned fighting the Mandalorians, that allowed him to convert the last of the Jedi who fought beside him - and murder those who would not. And he fears it is still out there... and silent for far too long. KotORII Icon Dialog.png Bastila: I have done as Revan asked and remained here, but she has been gone for too long.

Training Room

The door to the training room is at the right end of the academy to the right, but it remains locked until you've used the Student Terminal to pass the Level One test and access the training room.

The hallway leading to the training room from the academy's hub is lined with four gas nozzles in the floor to either side: once you reach the top of the slope halfway down this hallway, the back left nozzle ahead of you briefly releases some poison gas, then five seconds later the back right nozzle does so, and so on back down the hallway on alternate sides, before returning from the last.

Hugging the opposite wall allows you to pass an active nozzle unaffected, otherwise unless you have Immunity: Poison you'll be afflicted by On Hit: Poison, Virulent Damage, suffering 5 damage every 3 seconds for 30 seconds unless a Fortitude save is made at DC 30. You may also be debilitated while in an active nozzle's area of effect, even if you're immune or you save.

When you first reach the end of the hallway, three Sith assassins appear, one by the doors to either side and another behind you.

Experience Points (XP) Received:
  • 300 Killed Sith Assassin (3) (level 27)

Inside the training room there are five starving Tuk'ata in cages around its perimeter, two to the left and three to the right:

[This Tuk'ata looks hungry. Its cage is closed securely. You cannot see a way to open it from here.]

KotORII Icon Mandalore.png Mandalore: This Jedi hasn't been dead long.
KotORII Icon HK-47.png HK-47: Observation: This body has been dead no more than an hour.
KotORII Icon Visas.png Visas: Ah yes, I felt this Jedi's death shortly after we arrived on Korriban.
KotORII Icon Atton.png Atton: So this is who we came here to find? Looks like this has been a big, dangerous waste of time.
KotORII Icon Mira.png Mira: I think the body was left here as a message to us. KotORII Icon Dialog.png Master Lonna Vash: [Master Lonna Vash lies dead before you.]
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. Vash... She was a member of the Jedi Council. Dark Side Points Gained: -2
2. I might have killed her myself. She was one of those responsible for my exile.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. Vash was one of the members of the Jedi Council quickest to reject me. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Let's move on.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Move on.

Lost Jedi

Journal Entry Added Lost Jedi
You encountered the remains of Master Vash on Korriban – it looks like she was held there as bait by the Sith.

You can advance this quest no further on Korriban, so all that remains is to escape the academy.

Traces to Ashes

Journal Entry Added Traces to Ashes
You found the corpse of the Jedi Master Lonna Vash. She was a member of the Jedi Council who strongly supported your exile from the Order.
Experience Points (XP) Received:
  • 500 Found corpse of Jedi Master Lonna Vash

This quest is now completed. Master Lonna Vash lies dead in the cage to the left of the door to the detention room:

Item(s) Received Master Lonna Vash
  • Datapad: Lonna Vash
Item(s) Received Master Lonna Vash
This is the journal of Master Lonna Vash: "I found the Sith that I came to Korriban looking for. I am no fool, but I fell neatly into their trap. Their leader, Darth Sion, is a perversion of the dark side such as I have not seen before. Though he was cunning enough to capture me, he seems otherwise to be a volatile brute, and therefore should be easily coerced.

If I keep my wits about me I have no doubt I will escape this situation. Before I was captured I managed to create a system account under my name on the console in the room here. That will allow me to open the door back to the Valley.

Trapped

Journal Entry Added Trapped
You found the remains of Jedi Master Lonna Vash. She was captured and killed by the Sith Assassins.

There's a computer panel by the wall opposite the door to the detention room:

You need to access system commands and enter "Lonna Vash" before you can open the front door and escape back to the Valley of Dark Lords. However, before doing so you should make sure you've done everything you want in the academy (save game if you're unsure).

When you return to the academy's hub, you may notice Darth Sion is now standing with two Sith assassins on the left side opposite. He won't speak until you enter, which gives you a chance to prepare for the encounter:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: Did you come here for answers? There are none. The call of Korriban is strong, but it is the call of the dead.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: It is fitting you came here.I have studied you and found nothing but weakness. Yet still she clutches at you, as if you are all that gives her life. KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: I have studied you, immersed myself in you. I know the paths you walked in exile. I know your teacher. I know the fires that raged upon the Dxun moon while the Republic died around you. You know war. You know battle. And I know of Malachor. You know what it means to be broken. The one who travels with you will destroy you, as she did me. I can end it before it begins.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 4. Why don't you stop talking and try it? KotORII Icon Dialog.png 5. Enough words. Let's end this. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 6. If you're here for battle, let's get on with it.

Otherwise:

Dialog
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. How do you know Kreia? KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. What do you know of Kreia?
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: I know her as an apprentice knows their Master... and as a Master knows an apprentice.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. What do you want with her?
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: I want her to die, and see all that she has built cast down. All that she holds dear, in shards at her feet.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. What does Kreia want with me?
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: She clings to hope. That perhaps she can train one as great as her first. She is a fool who escaped death once. She will not do so again.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. If you want revenge on her, don't let me stand in your way.

Otherwise:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. I will not let you harm her.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: But you do not know her as I do. You have not survived her teachings, as I have. And you have not bested her in battle, as I have. You are nothing. Yet still she walks with you, is willing to sacrifice herself for you!
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: I have studied you. I know the paths you walked in exile. I know your teacher. I know the fires that raged upon the Dxun moon while the Republic died around you. You know war. You know battle. And I know of Malachor. You saw the heart of war, what Malachor wrought, yet you turned away from it.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: You are a wretched thing, a thing of weakness and fear. You are her apprentice in name only. I am the Master. And that is why you will die.

You can actually just run for the exit to the valley, but you might as well kill the two Sith assassins before you leave (they're the same as the first two that Darth Sion sent to find you).

Darth Sion rarely if ever uses a Force power other than Drain Life. If you do engage Darth Sion in combat, then once he's been reduced to less than 50% Vitality he restores himself to maximum. Shortly thereafter, Kreia speaks:

KotORII Icon Kreia.png Kreia: Sion. He cannot be defeated... he is not a beast of flesh and blood. This is not a battle that can be won. Flee.
KotORII Icon Dialog.png 1. I won't run from that corpse. KotORII Icon Dialog.png 2. Now you tell me. Anything else you want to share? KotORII Icon Dialog.png 3. Thanks for the information.
KotORII Icon Kreia.png Kreia: There will be another time. But it is not now, not here, while Korriban runs through him.

You run for the exit to the Valley of Dark Lords, leaving Darth Sion and his Sith assassins behind:

KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: She protects him. Shields him. Find him. Hunt him wherever he travels. He will not escape me again. I will bring his corpse to her, cast it at her feet. It will be as if killing her children. I will kill all she protects, all she shields, until her hands are drenched in blood. KotORII Icon Dialog.png Darth Sion: Do not harm her. I command it. She... has earned this. She and I will meet again.

You fled from Darth Sion and escaped the traps of the Sith Academy.

The door to the Sith Academy is now locked.
