衍生宇宙



Before Vader, before Maul, before Sidious... there was a Dark Lord of the Sith that cast a shadow of terror and destruction across the galaxy. The ancient forces of the Republic and the Jedi banded together to stop the torrent of the dark side, and bring an end to Exar Kun's rule.
在维德、摩尔、西迪厄斯……之前，曾有一名西斯尊主在整个银河系里投下了恐怖和毁灭的阴影。为了阻止这股黑暗面的洪流，共和国和绝地的古老军队团结一致，终结了埃克萨·库恩的统治。

He began as a simple student, studying under the revered Jedi Master Vodo-Siosk Baas. Like the dark apprentices that would follow throughout history, a basic impatience undermined all of Kun's training. His pride did not have the boundaries that his instruction did. Eager to ascend beyond his Jedi abilities, Kun abandoned his master and journeyed to the strife-torn world of Onderon. There, he encountered the spirit of Freedon Nadd, an ancient Sith who gave him further instruction.
埃克萨·库恩起初只是一个平凡的学生，师从于可敬的绝地大师沃多-西奥斯克·巴斯。跟后来那些黑暗的学徒一样，本能的急躁破坏了库恩的所有训练。他接受了有限的教导，却拥有无限的妄自尊大。出于对超越自己绝地能力的渴望，库恩背弃他的师父，来到因战火而千疮百孔的翁德伦。在那里，他遭遇弗里登·纳德的阴魂——这个古老的西斯给了他更深入的黑暗面指导。

Through Nadd's disembodied commands, Kun voyaged to the Sith mausoleum world of Korriban. There, ancient Sith spirits tried Kun's resolve. His body was crushed in a cave-in of tons of rocks, and Kun could not call upon the Force to help himself. Yet, the dark side offered what the Force couldn't. By giving into his fear and rage, Kun was able to heal himself and clear the obstacles. He emerged from the caverns transformed, fueled by the dark side of the Force.
通过纳德阴魂的引导，库恩飞往了西斯陵墓星球科里班。那里的古西斯阴魂们测试了库恩的决心。他的身体被成吨的巨石压在下面，库恩无法召唤原力来帮助自己。但是，黑暗面给予了库恩原力所无法给予的东西。在全身心投入恐惧和愤怒后，库恩得以治疗创伤，清除障碍。从洞穴中出来的他蜕变了，原力黑暗面浸染全身。

Following examples of ancient Sith Lords that preceded him, Kun came to the long forgotten Sith temples of Yavin 4. In Sith tradition, he took on an apprentice, the fallen Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma, and the two unleashed a scourge that would forever scar a galaxy. In the ages before Darth Bane's restrictions, Kun and Qel-Droma were able to recruit more Jedi into their ranks. Many young Jedi turned against their masters and slew them. Kun himself extinguished the life of Master Baas Baas in the halls of Coruscant's Senate chambers. It was a dark time indeed.
跟随先前那些古西斯尊主的足迹，库恩来到雅文4号卫星上被长期遗忘的西斯神殿里。按照西斯的传统，他收了堕落的绝地乌利克·凯尔-德罗马为徒。他们两人的暴行给银河系带来了难以磨灭的伤痕。在那个没有达斯·贝恩限制的年代，库恩和凯尔-德罗马招募了更多的绝地加入他们的队伍。许多年轻的绝地背叛并杀害了他们的师父。库恩本人在科洛桑议会大厅夺去了巴斯大师的生命。那确实是一个黑暗的年代。

Kun was fixated in unleashing pure, unbridled power through ancient Sith means. He practiced Sith magic and alchemy, crafting horrific creatures on the moon of Yavin 4. He brandished a Sith lightsaber with twin blades that increased the potent weapon's lethality. His followers triggered ancient technologies that detonated the stars of the Cron Cluster, wiping out entire worlds and searing the surface of Ossus.
库恩专注于通过古老的西斯手段释放纯粹而剧烈的力量。他修习西斯魔法和炼金术，在雅文4号卫星上创造恐怖的生物。他挥舞着一把有双头剑刃的西斯光剑，双头剑刃能增强这种强大武器的杀伤力。他的追随者触发古老的科技，引爆克伦星团的多颗恒星，毁灭了很多星球，烧焦了奥苏斯星球的表面。

Finally, a joint Republic and Jedi taskforce came to Yavin 4 to capture Exar Kun. He knew he could not survive the attack, so he summoned his dark side energies and trapped his consciousness into the temples his Massassi warriors had built for him.
最后，共和国和绝地的联合特遣队奔赴雅文4号卫星抓捕埃克萨·库恩。他知道不可能在这场进攻中幸存，于是召唤其黑暗面能量，将他的意识封印在马萨西战士们为他建造的神庙中。

For four millennia, Kun's disembodied spirit slumbered. The presence of a dozen Force-sensitives stirred his consciousness. It was now several years after the Battle of Endor, and Jedi Master Luke Skywalker had begun training Jedi at an academy on Yavin 4. Exar Kun's spirit sought to corrupt Skywalker's students and bring about a dark side reign again. He controlled Luke's most powerful student, Kyp Durron, but in the end, Luke's students united and were able to finally dispel Kun's spirit.
四千年来，库恩脱离肉体的阴魂一直在沉睡。十二名原力敏感者的到来激活了他的意识。现在已是恩多战役后好几年了，绝地大师卢克·天行者已开始在雅文4号卫星上的学院里训练绝地。埃克萨·库恩的阴魂试图将天行者的学生们引向堕落，重新建立起黑暗面的统治。他控制了卢克最强大的学生基普·达伦。但最终，卢克的学生联合起来将库恩的阴魂彻底消灭。

幕后



It's fitting that a villain such as Exar Kun, who spans millennia of the Star Wars timeline, also spans several media of licensed products. In 1994, he was first introduced as a shadowy spirit lurking in the temples of Luke's new training grounds, as explained in Kevin J. Anderson's Jedi Academy Trilogy. This introduction provided a few background details up for Tales of the Jedi: Dark Lords of the Sith, an epic comic series by Anderson and Tom Veitch set in the ancient times of the Sith and Jedi. By the end of the follow-up comic series, The Great Sith War, Kun was imprisoned in the Massassi temples, ready to live again in the novel series set thousands of years later. It should also be noted that Kun was the first to weild a double-bladed lightsaber, beating Darth Maul to the punch by several years.
对埃克萨·库恩这样的反派来说，出现在数种经授权的媒体产品中，与他跨越了数千年的《星球大战》时间线是相称的。1994年，按照凯文·J·安德森的《绝地学院三部曲》的描述，库恩首次以一个潜伏阴魂的形象出现在卢克的新训练场里。这次出场为《绝地传奇：西斯尊主》提供了一些背景细节。这套由安德森和汤姆·维奇合著的史诗级系列漫画将背景设置在绝地和西斯的古老时代。到大西斯战争结束时，即这套连载漫画系列的尾声，库恩被封印在马萨西神庙中，准备在以几千年后为背景的系列小说中复活。值得注意的是，库恩是第一个使用双刃光剑的人，比达斯·摩尔早了几年。
