Information About

Dark Lord Of The Sith




Dark Lord of the Sith or '''Dark Lady of the Sith''' is a title taken by the leader of the Sith Order . The Dark Lords of the Sith are acknowledged as the leaders of their order, and the most powerful Sith of their time. Only one Dark Lord existed at a time until the reign of Lord Kaan , at which point the title was bestowed upon all the leading Sith Lords of the Brotherhood of Darkness. Following destruction of the Sith during the Battle Of Ruusan , the dark order was reformed by Darth Bane . Bane instituted the " Rule Of Two ," which decreed that at no point in time could their number be more than two: a Master and an apprentice. Despite their difference in power, rank, and skill, both bore the title "Dark Lord of the Sith."
