Materrus was a male Sith pureblood who served the Sith Lord Darth Angral as a Sith of the resurgent Sith Empire during the Cold War with the Galactic Republic. Materrus was Force-sensitive with orange skin and red eyes, and wore their red hair in a spiked style down the middle of their head with two strands of hair near their ears. While confident of their power, Materrus was weak-willed and easily influenced with the Force. Materrus carried a single red-bladed lightsaber and wore black hooded robes.
In 3643 BBY, the Death's Claw pirate organization uncovered a shipment of artifacts belonging to the long-dead Jedi Covenant sect on the planet Taris, and offered to sell them to Darth Angral. As he was otherwise occupied, Angral sent Materrus as his agent to meet with the pirate captain Dugge and acquire the artifacts.
Materrus and Dugge met in the Rasaaran storage facility on Taris and completed their deal without incident.
Materrus first appeared in the BioWare-LucasArts video game Star Wars: The Old Republic, in which he is part of the Jedi Knight-class mission "An Opportunity Too Good To Pass Up." At the end of the preceding mission, the player is offered a choice of missions depending on the player's alignment. Light-side players learn from the Imperial spymaster Watcher One of the assassin Rora Seake and her mission to eradicate a Republic colony, while dark-side players are alerted to the sale of Jedi artifacts. The player can choose to accept the offered mission or ignore it, a choice that results in dark-side points. During the mission itself, the player can Force-persuade Materrus to surrender and allow himself to be killed for dark-side alignment points, or the player can either talk to the Sith or attack for no alignment points.
However, this article assumes that the player chooses only the moral light-side options as a Republic character and therefore assumes that the player was not told about the relics and that Materrus's deal was allowed to proceed without interruption.
