"But the ritual was not confined to the doomed Sith Lords. They were but the eye of the storm; the center of a vortex that spread across the entire planet. Every man, woman, and child on Nathema died that day. Every beast, bird, and fish; all the insects and plants; every living being touched by the Force was consumed. When the ritual ended, Nathema was no longer a world. It was a husk sucked dry. Lord Vitiate sacrificed millions, stealing their life force to make himself immortal. Their deaths also made him stronger than any Sith who had come before, and he ceased to be known as Lord Vitiate. On that day, the Emperor was truly born. (Darth Nyriss)
From Darth Nyriss, Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan
Plagueis also thought that Vitiate lived for a thousand years (FALSE)
Emperor has lived more than 1,300 years

Plagueis also though that Vitiate lingered aimlessely as a helpless spirit (FALSE)
Vitiate revived himself from the chaos that took place on Yavin IV and attacked Ziost afterwards.

SWTOR is now regarded as an ALTERNATE UNIVERSE of the mythos.
Are The Old Republic expansions canon?
No — BioWare "has created their own universe that is so fantastic," we're not going to change it, says Hidalgo.

As for immortality: Vitiate transformed some of his servants into immortal beings so that he could drain them endlessly to fuel his power.

So now suddenly if the novel Darth Plagueis offers his end,it shouldn't be considered EU canon?
Isn't that because you are a Vitiate boy? 😛 🙂

Drew has clearly confused the word "life force" with the word "Force". Sidious siphoned the Byss' habitants' life force and he didn't turn them into a husk sucked dry.
Drew has some serious problems outside of his Bane Trilogy,because there is:
1. Force energy(the reservoir of power of any Force sensitive)
2.Life-force(vitality)
3.The midichlorians(major part of the Force)
From what it came from Nyriss' mouth,he consumed only the life-force,Nihilus consumed all three of them.
Reason why Vitiate appears he did the same thing as Nihilus:
Drew was high with Luceno. 🙂

You actually destroyed your own argument with this.
Nihilus feeds on the force so he killed the force sensitives in Katarr. Vitiate killed everything in Natemha, including the force itself. 👆

Immortal doesn't mean invincible. Sidious was immortal and still died. 😉 😛
Sidious wasn't destroyed, his spirit was contained by Jedi spirits when it became vulnerable. Also, Sidious wasn't destroyed by Force Drain powers.

Also, don't assign labels to fellow debators like that. I can respond in kind, you know (e.g. Nihilus's bit** Chu Chu).
