How these 6 Obscure Sith Formed the CREEPIEST & Most POWERFUL Cult in the SW Universe

[@nightfall3332]

The force users of the SWTOR era are extremely underrated I wish we would get a clone wars style show set during that period there are so many awesome characters that deserve to be delved more into.

[@Jedi_Spartan]

Yeah, I think everyone's minds go straight to Darth Malgus when they think of SWTOR Sith (or Revan and Bane if they think of the overall 4000 year period of the Old Republic period in its various forms) but Darth Marr is one of my favourite Sith Lords. And I'm surprised that Darth Jadus hasn't returned beyond a brief mention during War For Iokath. Also it's interesting to see various Sith "falling" to the Light Side, including a Dark Counc member.

[@inquisitorgarza312]

The Dark Side is an unnatural and mysterious, and while many Dark Lords have a great understanding of the Dark Side, the Dread Masters were so steep into the Darkness that they may be confused for the Dark Side itself. The Sith Emperor wanted the Dread Masters to be close to him, but they are no doubt rivals for him, and this perhaps allowed the Emperor to realized that they could pose an actual threat to him. The Galaxy shudders when remembering the dark history, but the Dread Masters were creatures of pure nightmares and to horrifying to be told in story.

To the Emperor, he is playing the "keep your friends close, your enemies are closer" game with the Dread Masters.

Does it have something to do with something like seeing the Dark Council attempted to overthrow the Emperor three times and failed?

Pat usually comes in while Geetsly is otherwise indisposed. So say if geetsly is sick, Pat steps up and helps out. To what extent, i cannot say. All I can glean is that Pat is the narrator for the day. That said, pat does a wonderful job and I have noticed his audio is crisper than previous videos~ Great Job, Pat~ Thanks again for your help and an exellent coverage of the topic. ^~^ I do hope this helps you folks understand what goes on when the narrator changes~ Your's truely Bard Core

I never played the games, but I am actually curious about those strike teams. in the Darth Bane books, the most elite non-Jedi forces the Republic had were cannon fodder to Kopecz, I would have assumed that 6 Sith with the hype I always hear for this group would have torn pretty much any 'strike team' a new one, Kopecz was a funny child playing with party tricks next to any of them.

[@7ElevenTruther]

Yeah it seems to be thing among the sith that most of them including palpatine are weary of fringe darksiders who care more about chaos and destruction for it's own sake rather than trying to actually rule the galaxy. At the end of the day if you're somebody who wants to establish and sustain his own sith empire and maybe acheive immortality down the line you still need some degree of order and administrative government with a chain of command and darkside death cults that just want to bring about the apocalypse could interfere with that. If your a typical sith, the darkside is meant to be your slave. You aren't supposed to actually worship and rever aspects of it.

There was one particularly powerful Sith Emperor before Palpatine who, for a long time, went by no other name. You can search him up by the names Vitiate, Valkorion or Tenebrae (I think; it might be Tenebrous). Basically, he was really powerful, immortal, lived for a very long time, and barely failed to accomplish his goals, then he abandoned the Sith for some reason and that's where my understanding of him ends.
