That's probably why he said "if" he were to change his name, it would be to Darth Hayze. Maybe the real reason he doesn't claim to be a real Sith is how lame his name would have to be if he did.

I would also like to see this (vindication IU) as the turning point, when revan began his descent to the dark side. I mean, did he really stumble on malachor V just because it was mandalorian taboo? Something tells me it was kreia who told him, who i also want to see appear, hopefully turning out as Arren Kae

Something tells me it was kreia who told him, who i also want to see appear, hopefully turning out as Arren Kae While I was hoping Captain Malak would play a role, given he was present in the opening part of this arc, I'm a unsure now about him appearing out of nowhere to save the day as it might seem a bit too deus ex machina. Nevertheless, I do think Krynda's death is going to have serious ramifications on the Jedi Order (like Xamar said). What I find odd is on one hand there have been lots of polls recently and letters in the back of issues where DH recognises people want more Revan/Malak, and yet in one of the recent issues they also said they had "no immediate plans" IIRC. So, either that means we won't be seeing Revan/Malak's fall as part of the chaos Krynda's death causes, or that particular letters column was deliberately misleading. I'm in two minds now about Haazen. On one hand, I want him to survive, as he is just such an interesting character it feels like a waste now to kill him after only just hearing his back story. On the other hand, his role is fulfilled, he has turned Lucien to the dark side, so his death could potentially serve more of a purpose than his survival. Either way, I would find it interesting if his Sith research lured someone to Malachor--be it Lucien or another. What I still want to know is who "the Sith" who instigated the Mandalorian conflict was. When we first saw Haazen revealed in all his badassery in Vindication #1 I thought it was certain proof he was behind it... now I'm doubtful, as it doesn't seem to play into his plan. He just seems crazy, I don't necessarily see why he'd want the Mandalorians to attack, unless there is still more to all this than has been revealed--such as Haazen not actually being crazy, per se, but needing "Jedi and Sith" (to quote Kreia) to prepare for the True Sith who ruined Haazen's life (perhaps picking a Massassi to mutilate him was for a reason and more than just a fan service to TotJ?). However, as much as I like the idea of linking Haazen's plans for twin armies of Jedi and Sith in with Kreia and Revan's plans to stop the True Sith and needing "Jedi and Sith" to fight... I also still like Haazen just being plain crazy, as we don't get enough crazy Sith Lords. But, if Haazen was not "the Sith", then who? If it wasn't for the fact Sion was subordinate to Traya I'd like to say his new back story fits perfectly, with him as the de facto Dark Lord who could have died during the Mandalorian Wars, only to survive and return for the Dark Wars. But, Sion seems like too much of a chump in KOTOR2 to have been the mastermind of anything previously.

If i'm not mistaken Sion was head of the sith assasins, so he probably killed most of the jedi that died in the first purge. Haazen is pretty crazy, though how he managed to hide it for so long is beyond me. Alothough it was interesting to see both Zayne and Haazen go from failed padawans to something a lot better. Haazen dispatched a trio of jedi strike knights with little to no effort. And we have Zayne holding his own against lucien, but that may only be because his attention is focused on gryph.

I don't mean in terms of how easy or difficult Sion was to defeat. I mean the fact that he was immortal but still allowed Traya to rule him--Sion had been a Sith for forty or so years, Kreia had been one for less than a decade. For someone who is immortal, he couldn't have had much willpower if he allowed Kreia to break him; which is strange, given he was kept alive purely by will. What also confuses me is how did Kreia "break" him? If he had been a Sith for decades he was already broken. There's something very odd about their relationship which leaves Sion seeming somewhat wimpish. Its further odd if you take the deleted scene where he tells Nihilus to stick it, so is willing to stand up to him, but won't stand up to Kreia.
