Few have ever witnessed the holocrons contents before, but its rumoured that Tulak Hord was a honorable and relentless warrior, given his participation in the Kaggath and the ruthless way he destroyed his rival's entire legacy. It is possible that Tulak Hord's fighting style possesses elements of Juyo and Djem So, two forms favoured by Sith in the past. These teachings can only be learned to an extent depending on the individual's skill and interpretation, and will never rival the original prowess of Tulak Hord. Even though the holocron is said to only possess lessons on lightsaber combat, that is not all that Tulak Hord knew. Asides from being a master of the blade, Tulak Hord was first and foremost a Dark Lord of the Sith, one capable of willing the dark side to perform many unholy deeds.
His scope of power extended far beyond just swordsmanship, into the darkest depths of Sith sorcery itself. It is said that Tulak Hord was capable of draining the strength of his opponents on the battlefield, thanks to his extensive research in Sith rituals. It is also hinted that that Hord possessed knowledge of Sith alchemy, though to what extent is unknown. Last but not least, is the teachings on telekinesis that give the learner insight to Tulak Hord's immense raw power. His mastery and understanding of the ability was so great, that he was able to pull a gigantic ship down from the sky with moderate effort. These secrets are deep within the holocron, and would take sometime to unlock them.
Though not as coveted, there lies information on the ancient Dashade and their history, telling of how their home world was destroyed, leaving only a few left in existence. The gatekeeper of Tulak Hord, if questioned correctly, will also delve deeply into his relationship with Khem Val, a powerful Dashade servant that the Dark Lord preserved in a suspended animation stasis field. There also lies information on the construction of stasis fields with such life preserving properties, however this could only be understood by the most advanced of scientists.
