Ideology
Pain must be answered with power, and survival must become revenge or it means nothing.
Case File 02 / Psychological Report
A Sith apprentice, survivor, crime lord, and obsessive rival to Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Maul turns abandonment and bodily ruin into a life organized around revenge.
Darth Maul begins as weaponized silence, but survival turns him into something more tragic and more dangerous: a man who cannot stop narrating his wound. His hatred of Kenobi is personal because Kenobi gives his pain a face.
Maul's psychology is organized around abandonment. Sidious used him, Obi-Wan maimed him, and the galaxy moved on without him. Every alliance, crime syndicate, and duel becomes an attempt to prove he is not disposable. His final tragedy is that revenge gives him purpose but never freedom.
