Acolyte

The Acolyte, an upcoming series in the SW universe, has generated immense excitement and speculation among fans.

As we delve into the High Republic era, a period not extensively explored in mainstream SW media, the anticipation builds around the central question: Who is the Sith in The Acolyte?

This article will explore the potential identities and characteristics of the Sith in the series, the background of The Acolyte, and what fans can expect from this intriguing addition to the SW saga.

The Premise of The Acolyte

The Acolyte is set in the final days of the High Republic era, approximately 200 years before the events of SW: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.

This period is characterized by the Republic's peak, with the Jedi Order at the height of its power.

The series promises to delve into the darker side of the Force, focusing on the rise of the Sith during a time when they were believed to be extinct.

The Sith and Their History

The Rule of Two

To understand the Sith in The Acolyte, it is essential to grasp the Rule of Two.

This doctrine, established by Darth Bane, dictates that there should only be two Sith at any given time: a master and an apprentice.

This rule was designed to prevent the infighting that plagued the Sith in the past and ensure the order's survival and secrecy.

The High Republic Era

During the High Republic era, the Sith are presumed to be extinct.

However, The Acolyte aims to reveal the clandestine activities of the Sith during this period.

The series will likely explore how the Sith operated in the shadows, slowly regaining strength and plotting their return to power.

Potential Identities of the Sith in The Acolyte

Darth Plagueis

One of the most intriguing possibilities is the inclusion of Darth Plagueis.

Known as the wise, Darth Plagueis is a pivotal figure in Sith lore.

He is the master of Darth Sidious (Emperor Palpatine) and is known for his obsession with immortality and the manipulation of midichlorians.

While the timeline of The Acolyte is slightly before Plagueis's known activities, the series could introduce him in his early years or through the legacy he left behind.

A New Sith Lord

Given the High Republic era's creative freedom, The Acolyte might introduce an entirely new Sith character.

This new Sith Lord could provide fresh narratives and uniquely expand the Sith mythology.

This character could be a precursor to the more well-known Sith Lords and offer insights into the evolution of Sith ideology.

Darth Bane's Influence

While Darth Bane himself would not be alive during the timeline of The Acolyte, his influence could still be felt.

The series could explore how his teachings and the Rule of Two continued to shape the actions and strategies of the Sith.

The presence of Bane's legacy could be a significant plot point, driving the actions of the Sith in the series.
