Sith

"Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me."

- The Sith Code.

The Sith are an NPC varient of the Jedi class and historical faction in Star Wars: Legacies of the Galaxy. Originaly a species of red skined aliens, the term Sith became associated with a religious order of dark siders after ancient Dark Jedi arrived on the Sith homeworld of Korriban in the year 6,900 BBY and merged their cultures. Known for creating various Sith Empires over the course of centuries, the Sith were mostly defeated during the Battle of Ruusan in 1,000 BBY. However, following the event, the Sith adopted the Rule of Two, where only two members can exist at any given time. After taking over the Galactic Republic and destroying the Jedi Order, the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious created the Galactic Empire and reigned for decades until being defeated during the Galactc Civil War. In spite of the New Jedi Order assuming they are extinct, various Sith artifacts and peices of lore still exist in the Galaxy today.
