Summary
I ’m desperate to finally hear more about the Sith inStar Wars . The Sith Order has been something of a enigma for 47 year . Sith were first mentioned in the novelization of the firstStar Warsmovie , with Darth Vader call in the " Dark Lord of the Sith , " but he never explained what it think of . In fact , when Timothy Zahn create an alien race called the Noghri for his legendary Thrawn trilogy in 1991 , he in the beginning foresee them as the Sith - but Lucas vetoed that idea .
George Lucas always knew how attractive and exciting the Sith were , and he finally unveil his version of the Sith in 1999’sStar state of war : Episode I - The Phantom Menace . I ’ll never forget the flush of watching Darth Maul on the big covert . And yet , even now , the Sith remain so very mysterious . Here are the secret and mysteries I ’m eager to see revealed at last .
What ’s the best mode to watch Star Wars ? Here ’s everything you postulate to know to watch in release or timeline order , and how to admit the TV appearance .
8What Were The Sith Doing During The High Republic Era?
The Jedi believe the Sith had been rendered extinct after the expiry of Darth Bane , roughly a thousand year before the Skywalker Saga . rather , Darth Bane set up theRule of Twoand the Sith operated in the shadow . Fast - forward to the High Republic Era , the Golden Age of the Jedi and the Republic , andprecious piddling has been revealed about the Sith of that time . Alexander Freed ’s " Alphabet Squadron " trilogy revealed a horrific ( plain ) High Republic Sith fort in a black hole clustering around the planet Troithe , but that ’s about the bound of it to escort .
It will be thrilling to take how the agents of the dark side operated in the time of Christ Within .
All this is about to change in Leslye Headland’sThe Acolyte , a Disney+ telecasting show place at the fundament - end of the High Republic Era . According to Headland , this will let out the truth about the Sith Rule of Two , focusing on one Apprentice ’s seeking to overthrow their Master . It will be thrill to learn how the agent of the sour side control in the fourth dimension of lighter .
7How Did The Jedi Know About The Rule Of Two?
I recentlyrewatchedStar state of war : Episode I - The Phantom Menace , and I ascertain one question really tap me ; how did the Jedi know so much about the Sith ? harmonize toStar Warslore , Darth Bane destroy the Sith to reinvent them ; he was the one really responsible for pass over out the Sith , not the Jedi . If the Jedi had no further contact with the Sith after that point , then they should n’t really know about the Rule of Two at all .
6How Did The Sith Hide During Their Thousand Years Of Concealment?
It ’s always seemed unbelievable to me that they managed to conceal themselves for a thousand years , especially impart the nature of the darkness side;Sith are fueled by passion , which does n’t lend itself well to patience . There must have been so many near - misses , import when the Sith were almost endanger because of their own hatred and rage . That ’s especially true because they were n’t just hiding , they were also cultivate to undermine the Jedi and the Republic .
We ’re so used to the idea of Sith hiding in plain passel with Palpatine . But was he the exclusion , or the rule ? Is it possible the Sith long since master theForce powersthat allowed them to hide from the Jedi , and had been walking the streets of Coruscant for C ? If so , it ’s even possible some of the build eccentric inStar Wars : The High Republicare secret Sith .
5How Did Sith Recruit While Hiding From The Jedi?
Part of the problem , of line , is the fact the Sith would always have to be on the lookout for new recruits . That seems to be what ’s going on inThe Acolyte ; it looks as though a Sith Apprentice is seek to vote out their Master in accordance with the Rule of Two , but first they ’re search for an Acolyte to ensure the line of the Sith continues . Jedi and Sith are n’t the only Force cults in the galaxy , so presumably they look elsewhere .
The Acolytehas been called the story of how the Sith " infiltrated " the Jedi .
But I ca n’t help wondering if there ’s more to it than that . George Lucas infix a Sith Apprentice who was a former Jedi ( Count Dooku ) , and he to begin with project to have Jedi Master Sifo - Dyas be a secret Sith Lord as well . The entailment is thatthe Sith really hid inside the Jedi Order , recruiting from among the rank of the Jedi . The Acolytehas been called the news report of how the Sith " infiltrated " the Jedi , and that may well be the accuracy .
4How Does A Sith Apprentice Replace Their Master?
Now let ’s bring another furrow ; my hunch is that under the Rule of Two , an Apparentice needs to seek out a potential recruit ( an " Acolyte , " if you will ) before they confront their Master in battle . That ’s the only way I can see of avoiding a scenario in which there ’s in short only the one Sith , and the intact line is endanger . It ’s the scenario we see in Drew Karpyshyn ’s phenomenal Darth Bane trilogy , although that tale is n’t canyon anymore .
If this is the case , it upraise so many interrogation . When did Palpatine choose his own Acolyte , as he fix to kill Darth Plagueis ? Was Darth Maul his Acolyte , or did he have another recruit he cast aside before then ? This idea even explains why Palpatine was so spook when Count Dooku recruited Ventress inStar Wars : The Clone Wars ; he considered Ventress to be Dooku ’s Acolyte , and could n’t allow matter to escalate any further .
3Will We Ever Get To See Darth Plagueis?
talk of Darth Plagueis … will we ever get to cope with Palpatine ’s Master ? James Luceno told the news report of Darth Plagueis in one legend novel , but that is n’t canon ; in fact , in canon there ’s only been a undivided figure of speech of Darth Plagueiis to date . Seen in the in - universe reference bookSecrets of the Sith , it evince Plagueis conceal in shadow .
Darth Plagueis was a Muun , a long - live on exotic race , meaning he ’d likely have been alive at the time ofThe Acolyte . Is he the Sith Master ? Is he the mysterious young Sith who ’s been shown facing Amandla Stenberg ’s Mae ? GivenThe Acolyte ’s seat in theStar Warstimeline , Plagueis simply has to turn up somewhere .
2How Did The Sith Gain Influence With The Trade Federation?
WhenThe Phantom Menacekicks off , the Sith are already in an alliance with theTrade Federation . It feel like something fairly recent ( at least in a Neimoidian life , anyway ) , because the leaders of the Trade Federation seem rather uncomfortable with Darth Sidious ' program . But when did this partnership begin , and how was it broach ?
My suspicion is thatthe official partnership was being do work on for decades before it became a realness . After all , the Sith were playing the longsighted game ; think of it like a game of chess game , where unnumerable different pieces are being moved across the control panel with precision , in preparation for the end game . The Skywalker Saga is this end game - and everything was being moved into place long before then .
1What Kind Of Power Does A Force Dyad Really Have?
Star Wars : The Rise of Skywalkerintroduced theForce Dyad , at last defining the mysterious bond between Rey and Ben Solo . This was easily one of the best estimate in the picture show , even if the execution was pretty lacking , and it ’s good for more exploration . harmonise to Palpatine , this was a exponent not seen in genesis , and the ancient Sith believe it would grant them the mightiness to pass lifetime and expiry . reference book books have even suggest it can let manipulation of clip and distance .
Even more intriguingly , though , Star Wars : The acclivity of Skywalker Visual Encyclopediarevealedthe Force Dyad is the basis for the Rule of Two . The Sith have been hunt for a Force Dyad for as long as they ’ve be , aware it would give them the power they take to destroy the Jedi once and for all . CouldThe Acolytebe the history of a Force Dyad ? Amandla Stenberg is likely playing twins - one sparkle , one dark - and some trailers have suggest at a cryptical bond between them . The report is arrange generations before Palpatine , after all , which fits .
WhetherThe Acolyteis the storey of a Force Dyad or not , rather or laterStar Warsreally has to show what this phenomenon is really up to of . This is a franchise that hop-skip around the timeline with trivial forethought , mean it ’s prosperous to imagine a scenario where viewer finally get to see a Force Dyad in action . Hopefully , that will be sooner rather than later .
