EVERY SINGLE Sith Rank/Specialization Explained!

the Sith order the most infamous wielders of red lightsabers and the dark side of the force we recently made a video examining all the various ranks and specializations of the Jedi Order which you seem to enjoy so we felt it was only right to take a look at their sworn enemies the Sith aren't nearly as linear or cookie cutter as the Jedi when it comes to titles or ranks especially dating back to the Old Republic but that's not going to stop us we'll cover the main titles scen throughout the films and also the Lesser known Legends ones this is every single Sith Rank and specialization explained a Sith Apprentice was an individual trained by a Sith Master to use the dark side Jedi almost always began their training at a very young age whereas this was less set in stone for the Sith as many were Fallen Jedi themselves Darth cidus took Maul as his Apprentice when Maul was was still a child but also took on tyrannis when he was in his 60s although Darth Bane's rule of two mandated that only two Sith could exist at any given time a master and Apprentice it was the duty of a Sith Apprentice to one day slay their master and take that place for themselves going on to master their own apprentice and pass on the teachings of the dark side such a model ensured the Sith grew in cunning and power with each generation and kept to the Shadows rather than repeat the infight created by having too many Sith at one time the Sith master of course instructed the Sith Apprentice in the Arts of the dark side of the force passing along their knowledge should an apprentice be killed the Sith Master could replace them if the master also felt they'd found a potentially more powerful Apprentice they could kill their current one and replace them the rule of two always assured that the two surviving Sith Lords were as powerful as possible furthering the line until they could fulfill their grand plan of wiping out the majority of the Jedi Order Darth was both a title and name given to every single symor preceding their Sith name we don't have an exact meaning or origin for the title of Darth in universe but behind the scenes George Lucas has said Darth is a variation of dark though he has also explained the inspiration behind the name specifically when referring to Darth Vader were the words death and Invader Sith Lord or dark lord of the Sith were similar in meaning to Darth referring to both the master and Apprentice under the rule of two in the distant past of the Old Republic the Sith Empire was led by several Sith Lords during their constant Wars with the Jedi Order however the dark lord of the Sith was at one point considered to be the greatest and most powerful of the Sith Lords today's video is sponsored by onas saber they sent us over one of their most

had two different meanings in Canon they were basically a step down from Sith Apprentice during the time of the rule of two think Assange venturous as an acolyte under Count Dooku who was still technically an apprentice in his own right in the Old Republic aith assassin specialized in stealth and melee combat they were known to primarily wield saber staffs in combat and some were even Adept at concealing themselves with the force preferring to Ambush their prey from the Shadows rather than engaging them in no in combat Sith Alchemists practiced Sith Alchemy using this Sith magic to make all sorts of Creations such as mutants known as sitpa they were also able to manipulate physical objects as seen when a Sith Alchemist reforged kylo Ren's helmet this siai was an ancient Sith title that became the subject of a legend prophesizing the coming of a being that would lead and destroy the Sith but in doing so would make the Sith more powerful than ever before it was was essentially the Sith version of the Jedi Prophecy of the chosen one the foretold sithari was of course Darth Bane who fulfilled the prophecy through the creation of the rule of two Sith battle Lord was a rank held by Warriors who served Darth Riven yes Riven with an i and not Revan with an E battle Lords were leaders within riven's armies and through a series of complex rituals involving the application of Sith magic were bonded to the Troops that they commanded with the force Sith blade master was a title on par with Jedi Battlemaster it was given to the lightsaber combat instructor at the Sith Academy on Corban they supposedly knew all lightsaber forms to a degree of Excellence so they could instruct pupils in this art we can only assume that these Sith lightsaber classes and sparring sessions resulted in a lot more deaths than those which took place at the Jedi Temple caretaker was a position in the Lost tribe of the Sith the official keeper of Sith lore think like the Jedi librarian a corrector was an elite officer that served Sith lore Damon assigned with carrying out law enforcement duties and enforcing his Twisted philosophy Sith Emperor was the title belonging to the ruler of the Sith Empire held by Sith Lords like Viet voron and crate yes Palpatine was also an emperor but that referred to emperor of the Galaxy not the Sith Emperor's hands were top secret special operatives trained in the force by Emperor Palpatine himself they were so secret they usually had no knowledge of each other's existence Mara Jade is the best known Emperor's hand who later became a Jedi and married Luke Skywalker the fist served as the Supreme military commander for the one Sith under Darth crate Grand Lord was the title held by the ruler of the circle of Lords in the Lost tribe of the Sith they were essentially the Sith ORD equivalent to Jedi Grandmaster the rank held by Yoda the high Lord was a presiding member of the circle of Lords kind of like a Jedi council member but for the Lost tribe of the Sith the grand Lord's hands were similar to The Emperor's hands we mentioned earlier these hands served as spies and secret agents of the ruling Grand Lord who operated outside of conventional protocols a Sith hopeful was what many Sith on corbon called an individual who aspired to enroll in the Sith Academy many were individuals who sought a better lifestyle or to get in on what they saw as The Winning Side of the war While others were also former Jedi who had been seduced by the Dark Side of force Sith warriors were the lightsaber combat Specialists of the Sith Empire entrusted with the task of destroying the Sith Empire's enemies and enforcing Sith domination across the entire galaxy Warriors had little patience for careful planning relying on pure power and intimidation to attain their goals Sith inquisitors specialized in enforce abilities as opposed to lightsaber combat like Sith Warriors contrasting in a similar way to Jedi Guardians and Jedi consulars Sith inquisitors were most feared for their ability to channel the energy of the dark side making them a spectacle to behold on the battlefield while Warriors usually wielded standard lightsabers inquisitors tended to opt for double-bladed lightsabers these are not to be confused with the Imperial inquisitors who were closer to Sith assassins or acolytes that served the Galactic Empire and hunted down Jedi that had survived Order 66 Sith Knight was a title bestowed upon a former Sith Apprentice who had completed their training under a master or other Knight at the time of the Jedi Civil War Sith Magnus was a title claimed by self-anointed rulers of the most ancient of Sith Darth Malik held this title during the Jedi Civil War maganus could be translated as all powerful Lord of lords or Emperor Sith morage ERS were Sith Warriors often responsible for the most brutal acts carried out by The Sith Empire a Sith Marauder's physical prowess was a dark side technique fueled by hatred rage and cruelty most Marauders could duel an average Jedi in single combat and walk away with the win they specialized in using two lightsabers at once Sith juggernauts were Sith Warriors known for wearing armor that provided Extra Protection in battle juggernauts usually had an intense muscle build which helped them in combat the master of the Sith Temple was a rank held by The Sith tached with running the Sith temple on the planet catch this title also likely existed for other Sith based on other temples Master blades were Old Republic weapon Masters that won 10 or more duel against lightsaber wielding opponents the title signified the user skill in defeating Jedi or other Sith Sith minions were the lowest members of the Sith order some were not even Force sensitive and they often worshiped the Sith Lords as Gods Sith cultists as seen in the rise of Skywalker were a well-known type of Sith minion but that about does it for Sith ranks and specializations did we miss any out almost certainly as we mentioned off the top Sith ranks are not nearly as streamlined as those of the Jedi Order In fact many different titles or ranks often referred to the same thing in practice but if you feel there was an important Omission tell us about it in the comments and we might cover it in a future video also feel free to let us know which rank is your favorite or the most
