Darth Maul surprised many Star Wars fans with his appearance in Solo: A Star Wars Story. The audience discovered that the deadly Darth Maul has survived to build an empire of his own as the true leader of Crimson Dawn. Operating from his homeworld of Dathomir, Maul commanded the crime syndicate with the help of refined figurehead and terrifying enforcer Dryden Vos, who traversed the galaxy on his lavish yacht entertaining and brutally imposing the will of his master. After his death, Drydens first lieutenant Qira assumed control over the territories, working closely with Maul to continue their rule.
