Quote: Originally Posted by Sadishist Above is not true.

And the warrior is a weakling because of it. He is the generation of Darths that basicly think it is an earned title, not a claimed one. He is part of the problem that leads to the Brotherhood of Darkness and the eventual Rule of Two started by Darth Bane. Quote: Sith Inquisitor: "You earned this title after defeating Darth Thanaton before the assembled Dark Council on Korriban." And it is a bit silly that you basicly use an example of someone who claims the title, and a seat on the Dark Council, by proof of might as an example of my point being wrong. The Inquisitor is the example of the more traditional Darth. Not put there by others, but by their own efforts. Dragging themselves from Slave to Darth on their own merit.

Your character is Han Solo, Obi-wan Kenobi or Luke Skywalker of his time, not generic unnamed Jedi in the background at Geonosis. Quote: So much for only a fully trained Jedi Knight with the force as his ally ally, will conquer Vader and his Emperor. Bioware instead have a half trained Jedi apprentice killing Darths. You've missed the point of the Rule of Two as well. Palpatine and Vader are the Dark Side of the Force embodied in two beings. Not it spread over hundreds of beings.

It's been mentioned before, but yeah, there were plenty Darths before the Rule of Two, but someone had the same idea as the OP has and something changed. ^^ @OP: If you haven't read that book yet, you should do it. Kinda explains what will / may happen to weak Darths one day.

This thread is a joke. There isnt that manny darths runing arround in the first place. You have the dark council and a few other. On the large scale of things they arent that manny. It fits perfectly in the old republic lore but whataver. The firs sith empire also had alot of lords of the sith and a council. darth= master lord = knight Every sith above alocyte is lord, its how the rest non sensitive call them anyway its more of courteus designation then a rank amoung the sith. acolyte=padawan Aprentices are the ones learning and serving to a master it can be darth or a lord. a title isnt rank it doesnt work like the military. darth maul was sidious aprentice yet it was a darth and lord of sith same with darth tyranus and darth vader and so on.

Oh it is actually Force sensitive now. The fact droids might be Force Sensetive is, even in the quests itself, still stated as a silly view shared by only 1, nearly crazy, Jedi. So you really take way too much out of it. And yes, everything CAN become Force Sensetive. And the galaxy is a huge place, so many things probably DO become Force Sensetive. Also, let's not forget that the Force as a whole is actually stronger in this era than the movie era. The Rule of Two and the inbalance that creates between Light and Dark actually weakens the Force. So the fact there are more things sensetive these days than in the movies is actually not a strange idea.

Each of the leaders of the dark council leads a formal power strucutre. EVERY SITH is a part of one of these power bases. and each of the 12 who rules these 12 power bases report to the emperor. within the empire, only the emperor is masterless

Text from lore gathered in the Academy Spoiler The Sith Order bestows a number of titles upon its followers, as befits their rank and power. These are the most common: Acolyte: A Sith acolyte has not yet completed his or her trials in the Sith Academy, and may well die before becoming truly "Sith." Sith: An acolyte who completes the trials and is accepted as the apprentice of a Sith Lord is considered Sith--no more, no less. Any non-Sith, however, is expected to refer to a Sith as "my lord" out of respect. Overseer: An instructor at the Sith Academy is called an overseer. Overseers are often Sith Lords, but that rank is not a requirement; they may simply be Sith with a talent for instruction. Sith Lord: A Sith who advances in the order's hierarchy will eventually be elevated to Sith Lord. His or her name is preceded by "Lord" in formal address. In the modern Empire, "Dark Lord" is synonymous with this term. Darth: The strongest Sith Lords ascend to the position of Darth. Many take a new name at this point, symbolically embracing their transformation into something greater. Emperor: There has been only one Sith Emperor since the Great Hyperspace War over 1,300 years ago. He is supreme.

Oh it is actually Force sensitive now. No you wrong. Just because the force can influence even droids with given time doesnt mean they are force sensitive or that they can even master it. Also this is in the lore btw. If you played KOTOR 2 Kreia explains it better. Its not a "now" thing it wasnt a thing that this game brought new.
