Darth Solipsis
from grown Strand-Cast rejected in his pursuit to create a new 'Voice of the Maw' from scratch. These mute Strand-Casts were subjected to mutation via Sith Alchemy and injected with chemicals to suppress higher brain function so they would be completely subservient to their master's will. For the remainder of their natural existence they serve as elite personal brutes, bodyguards, or berserker for their masters.

- Average Length of Adults: N/A
- Skin color: Pale
- Hair color: N/A
- Distinctions: Towering in size, downright gargantuan compared to an average human or near-human species and easily discernible by the pale skin, lack of hair, and black eyes. The Nephilim wear long cloaks that cover their armor, and do not act unless commanded so by their masters, remaining as still, mute sentries.
- Races: N/A
- Force Sensitivity: Non-Sensitive
- Goliath to your David: Brute force and pure strength, these giants could overpower a wookiee with minimum effort.
- You are like mosquito: These creatures were made with purpose, resilent and hardy, a Nepihim can take a significant amount of tissue damage before succumbing to it's wounds.
- No fear: Due to the lack of a higher functioning brain, they feel no fear and do not suffer anxiety or any associative emotion.
- One master, one command: Nepilim are capable of only fulfilling simple commands by the master they are bonded with through mental connection. All other commands given by any who cannot connect with the creature are ignored utterly or risk the wrong kind of attention in combat situations.
- Hungry hungry hippo: Due to the extremely fast metabolism of the creature, Nephilim need to eat their bodyweight in meat every day or else they suffer and begin to grow malnourished.
- Simple: Nephilim lack the ability to problem solve or adjust to situations, they simply do as they are instructed to the best of their ability. This leads to destructive and dangerous tendencies that may inhibit allied forces.
- You only live once: Due to the manner in which a Nephilim is created, it only survives a natural lifespan of twenty years before it deteriorates rapidly, goes insane, and dies miserably from organ failure.
- Diet: Carnivore
- Communication: Body language is the primary form of primitive communication these mute giants have.
- Technology level: Primitive
- They are incapable of creating or thinking on a higher spectrum of brain activity. They utilize what they are equipped with and that is all. They are incapable of anything other than maiming, killing, protecting, or outright eating their quarry.
- Religion/Beliefs: N/A
- General behavior: Generally, unless ordered to follow or kill, the Nephilim remain stationary and watch as sentries for anything considered hostile activity toward their master. They are carnivores and will eat when ordered to do so, use your imagination on what kind of meat a Warlord of the Maw would order such a creature to devour..
Created in the bowels of Gehinnom by Darth Solipsis and his attendants in pursuit of creating a new 'Voice of the Maw', rejected tissue stock and Strand-Cast bodies were utilized in conjunction with Sith Alchemy to create a new sithspawn to serve the Brotherhood's top warlords in an effort to bolster their bodyguard detail with powerful beserkers. The origins of such brutes were shrouded in mystery when they first arrived among the Heathen Priesthood who dispatched and 'gifted' the powerful warriors to the warlords they deemed worthy. Only a select handful were even made aware of their twisted origin, this left the subservient race of giants an enigma to most of the Brotherhood who all but accepted the fearsome warriors at the Heathen Priests' word.
As of 864ABY there have been several sightings of these hooded mutes among the warlords and at least one or two on Osseriton's penal colony where they inspire dread among the prisoners and stationed war band alike. Their main use and purpose has become that of a glorified bodyguard, taking out those who would strive to kill their master with the utmost cruelty. They are beserkers and murderous titans utilized by the hand of their master at the whim of their masters, all this is possible through the mental bond created between Warlord and Nephilim by the Heathen Priesthood. If that bond was to be disrupted, the mute giants would be unable to comprehend any further commands by their masters. This was first seen during the initial invasion of Lao-mon when a Nephilim became unresponsive and needed mental links reestablished to it's host by Deacon Mardok of the Heathen Priesthood.
