Force Drain would eventually kill an individual after the individual's life energy is fully sucked/siphoned from him/her by the power.
Point is that Emperor Vitiate cannot be killed with Force Drain because of his immortality. He also have the option to drain others since he is a master of these talents.
Nihilus is not immortal so he won't survive Force Drain unless he drains the opponent in turn to prevent his demise. However, he is unlikely to hold against an immortal for long in this kind of struggle.
This is confusing.
The ship should disintegrate after fall of Nihilus, if he was holding it together. It didn't disintegrate after his fall but was blown up by bombs.
I am not asserting that Nihilus had to hold every atom together.
Suppose that ship have 4 sections. These sections are not properly joined and would break loose. Nihilus is holding all sections together with his power in the Force. So if Nihilus falls, the ship should disintegrate.

Have you played the game? Nihilus doesn't use the standard drain. He, Kreia, and all the students on Malachor use a different version that drains the Force, not life, from a person. Second, Nihilus doesn't have a body and is pure Force Energy inside a robe. Third, incase you didn't see it the first time, Force Drain does not work on Force Wounds. It'll rebound and drain you instead. This is why Nihilus was defeated over Telos IV.
Why would this happen? Nihilus had the ship over Telos without moving, planing to drain the entire planet. The ship would cling together because nothing else is moving the ship, unless some outside force acted on it. Either way, the ship begins to fall apart as soon as he dies, not when the bombs go off. I'm guessing you didn't actually play KotOR II. And why would the ship disintegrate? It was atomized anywhere else, so why would it disintegrate now?
Darth Nihilus has a similiar feat. The power that holds in his mask is able to turn any non-Force sensitive from an average Joe to someone with the skills and powers of a full-fledged Sith Apprentice.
? Darth Nihilus' best telekinetic feat was at his arguably weakest state.

He hadn't just suffered from it. This was after his training with Traya. His hunger was sated.
His weakest state was when the Exil beat him. Obviously. If it wasn't then he would still have been able to lift capital ships in their fight so he would have stomped her.
Not necessarily. I always got the impression that Darth Nihilus left Malachor V, traveled around for a bit, then Darth Traya found him and brought him back to Malachor V. Otherwise it wouldn't make sense that she had to "hunt" him, because he was already there.
I am aware, but not many. I honestly would never go as far to say that there were any more then a 100 survivors.
