She's pretty much the same in Legends except there are more signs of her actually being abused. They even did an entire arc for her where she tries to leave the war behind but ends up dying anyways. She's one of the best written and most tragic characters in SW's imo.
She survived.
I loved that ending...
Ah it seems the shuttle survived.
Enraged and wounded, Ventress attempted to kill Kenobi, who was trying to help her, only to be dealt a mortal wound by Anakin. As she lay dying, Ventress told Kenobi to protect the Galactic Core from Dooku, and finally let go of her anger and rage. Perhaps, she mused, Kenobi had been right about her. With that, Ventress appeared to die, and Obi-Wan ordered her apparent corpse to be placed aboard a medical shuttle.[24]
Despite appearances to the contrary, Ventress did not die, instead placing herself in a Sith trance on Boz Pity using her Sith healing techniques to heal the wounds she suffered. She was loaded aboard the med runner Bright Flight, and, while on board, emerged from her trance and ordered the pilots to alter their course; to take her as far away as possible from the war, Dooku, and the Jedi. The pilots complied.[24]

An open ended 'ending' for Ventress is honestly the best fit for her. Too bad Dark Disciple had to ruin it.
Eh it's actually pretty tragic but not bad imo. The novel may have been trash but Ventress's ending wasn't. She had almost achieved happiness with Vos before it was taken away from her in the end.
Originally posted by SyndicateVentress was sort of fridged. And I think Vos's and Ventress's relationship was too rushed and kind of just ridiculous.

Originally posted by EmperordmbTo be honest, Ventress in Legends is severely psychotic and just mentally damaged. Pretty different to Canon Asajj.
In legends Ventress is a participant in ****ing genocide and likely several other war crimes and ****ed up shit.Pardon me if I don't feel sympathy for someone who pulled that shit.
Dooku is charismatic in the same way the U.S is. Charming, funny, yet he's by the general view of the public, evil.
Dooku is sympathetic in that he became evil in order to restore order to the galaxy, he went from being the order's most revered and adored Jedi, to one of the galaxy's most feared men all because he wanted the Jedi to break away from the political corruption of the Republic.
For me, It's not that his charm, wit and persona that make him utterly entertaining, it's the fact that he chose to become "evil" not for power, not for wealth, not even for the opportunity to rule the galaxy, he "fell" because he wanted peace, truly did.
What draws me to the character is that he's not completely sure of his motives anymore, he knows he's doing terrible things, and he feels this very strongly internally. Dooku is among the few Sith who's resolve can be shaken, unlike totally gary sue characters(I.e Bane, Valkorion etc)
I'm a fan of Dooku for the charm,charisma, smugness and intelligence he oozes. But it's his struggles with his actions and his sympathetic character that I highly enjoy.
