As normal with her species, her skin was blood red and her hair was an almost perfect black. She had no scars, a testament to her skill in combat. She appeared to be aging gracefully, not truly losing any of her beauty over the years (this was not because of Sith magic of anything). Her face, while still retaining some of its youth, had begun to collect that Dark corruption that made many Sith appear older than they actually were. Her eyes were a deep purple.
Personality:
Believes herself to be superior, acts petulantly when proven less than omnipotent, and that she would one day have become a Dark Lord of the Sith if not Emperor. She also believed in the rarer concept of holding in all emotions, bottling them up for later use. In this way the emotions that were truly powerful became even more so, while the lesser emotions faded away.

Other Notes:
Legnath was a Zeltron who began her rise to power many years before the Clone Wars began, when there were more Sith in the galaxy. She was trained on Korriban, easily graduation by defeating and dispatching all of her competition. Her natural inclination to the Force made her a particularly close watched student by a number of the Headmasters at the Academy. Her master was a powerful Sith Lord, however as time does with all things his fame was lost, and he trained her harshly. She was put through trials that would have broken lesser students, she had killed two Jedi in service to that master. Then a different Sith killed her master, this new Sith took over the role of master for Legnath.
However, she proved to be too powerful for this new Sith. He attempted to have her killed sending her into an impossible situation to survive. Or so he had believed. His new student was more powerful than he had anticipated. She returned, knowing now that her master had tried to have her killed. She confronted the Sith... and failed to kill him. While she was powerful, there was a reason that her previous master had been killed by this one. She was beaten down and continued to obey the current Sith.
She found her opportunity to kill him in the form of a new apprentice of his. The boy was young and weak, he had miraculously survived the initial training and somehow came out on top. Through much time and effort, Legnath subtly manipulated the newer apprentice into trying to confront the master. When the boy confronted the master, she pretended to be on her master's side. With that deception she was able to kill her master while he tortured the younger apprentice. The younger apprentice wished to take over the Sith master's power base, however Legnath did not want to have competition. She slew the younger Sith with ease, but instead of taking the power base for herself she destabilized it, utterly obliterating both of her master's work.
She believed herself to be so powerful that she did not require a power base. She began trying to campaign against the Jedi, however she soon learned that the greater Sith Lords cared little for her plans. She had become something of a joke to the other Sith. At the same time however, many of the 'middle class' Sith were worried about what she may try next. The fear was that she had schemes to collect her own power by destroying all other Sith. She did intend on collecting her own power, however she wanted to do so after the Jedi were destroyed.
Knowing that she had to somehow get respect from the greater Sith, Legnath began hunting datacrons and ancient items of lore. She hoped that by becoming a wellspring of primordial Sith knowledge, she would be accepted into the upper echelons of the Sith society. During her journeys she appointed herself Lord, giving herself the title was part of the vanity that eventually led to her taking larger risks. She believed that she was unstoppable, slowly yet steadily become the perfect Sith, a pure manifestation of the Dark Side. She found many ancient trinkets and weapons of the Sith. She killed many Jedi on her journey. She soon became a well known name among both the Sith and the Jedi.
There were a number of attempts on her life, most of which were set up by fellow Sith. She survived them all however, and continued to rise in power. She disappeared from the Sith's reign of knowledge for a long while. She would return to show that she had become even more powerful. Still she was not accepted into the circles of the most powerful Sith. When she tried to force them to let her in, she was broken and cast aside. She returned with more anger and hatred towards those Sith at the top. She trained harder and harder...
Until at last she found some bit of information that would help boost her at last into the spot of a truly powerful Sith. She found references in ancient texts of a beast created by an incredibly powerful Sith. One so important to that Sith that he hid the beast from all other potential followers. The beast was released onto Taris right before the Sith Lord's death. Believing this to be the Force's sign, Legnath made all haste to the planet.
She found Taris infested with Rakghouls, forcing her to have to slay many of them in her search. As she tried to find the creature, she further studied the texts that had led her here. The creature was a Rakghoul, or at least part Rakghoul, which meant that she would have little difficulty killing the beast. She had killed so many Rakghouls already that she assumed she could defeat anything on the world.
It turned out that when she did find Harrip, she found that he was more dangerous than she had imagined. Apparently her belief that because it was a Rakghoul made it non-intelligent. the fact that Harrip was in fact quite intelligent and very cunning made killing him even more of a boon. They met three times on planet, each time the beast would speak trying to stop her from attacking him. Each time, Legnath would not be dissuaded. Each time, the ghoul would run and escape somehow.
Then finally there was a confrontation. She unleashed all of her powers on the creature, willing it to not escape and to fall beneath her. The creature survived the onslaught, resisted her attempts at melee combat, and overpowered her supposedly impenetrable defenses. She found herself forced back further and further. She did not believe it was possible. She found that the more she attacked the more viciously the creature would retaliate. At last she was beaten into submission, however she had driven Harrip too far beyond his sapient mental capacity. His Rakghoul side mind killed her.
Her end was painful, though mercifully quick. Even as a Rakghoul, Harrip had retained some form of kindness towards his enemies.
