Darth Morgue began life as a simple, but gifted togruta on Shili. He was a skilled hunter, even as a young age, and he was respected even by his elders. Many believed that he was destined for great things. Darth Plagueis came to Shili and discovered the young togruta. Sensing his strong force energy he murdered his family and kidnapped him, taking him back to Aborah, an island in the western sea of Muunilist, where Plagueis used him as a test subject for his midichlorian manipulation experiments
