The Infinity Gate was an ancient power used by the Kwa, a saurian race which lived on Dathomir long before the formation of the Old Republic. They used it as a weapon and as a means of interstellar travel.
Through what the Kwa called "power of the cosmos", the Infinity Gate was able to transport them across the galaxy, or project Infinity Waves of tremendous destructive power. The Gate was accessed from a Star Chamber covered by massive pyramid-shaped structures known as the Star Temples. The Star Temples and its associated buildings contained traps which protected the Chambers from intruders. Inside the Star Chamber, a realm of infinity lay, which housed a central control station which was used to control the power of infinity.
History
As the Kwa began to wane in power across the galaxy, the Kwa sealed the Infinity Gate and the Star Temples and set guardians to protect the realm of infinity—whuffa worms with thick hides and impressive speed. After their mysterious fall from power, the Kwa settled on Dathomir and regressed into the animalistic Kwi.
In 31 BBY, the Nightsisters succeeded in capturing the local Star Temple and slaughtered many Kwi. The Nightsisters had intended to access the secrets of the Infinity Gate and use it to destroy Coruscant. However, their plot was thwarted by the Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos, who, using his role as Temple Guardian, redirected the deadly wave aimed at Coruscant back at the Infinity Gate. Only the scattered ruins of the Star Temples were left. The Kwi also disappeared into the deserts.
In 12 ABY, Sigit Ranth investigated the Star Temple on Dathomir for the Imperial Remnant, but finding no remains of the Star Chamber, abandoned the project, while the Remnant instead concentrated on recruiting Nightsisters as part of Project Nightsaber.
