Sith Order

😈 I was wondering about the Sith, How Come can only be 2, a Master and an Apprentice? and since when the Sith follow rules, wouldnt they be more powerful having more than 2, i mean Sidious, Vader And Tyranuss wouldve been a great team and impossible to beat, also what are the Rules The Sith go by?

Ok, as GL describes it:

"One of the themes throughout the films is that the Sith lords, when they started out thousands of years ago, embraced the dark side. They were greedy and self-centered and they all wanted to take over, so they killed each other. Eventually, there was only one left, and that one took on an apprentice. And for thousands of years, the master would teach the apprentice, the master would die, the apprentice would then teach another apprentice, become the master, and so on. But there could never be any more than two of them, because if there were, they would try to get rid of the leader, which is exactly what Vader was trying to do, and that's exactly what the Emperor was trying to do. The Emperor was trying to get rid of Vader, and Vader was trying to get rid of the Emperor. And that is the antithesis of a symbiotic relationship, in which if you do that, you become cancer, and you eventually kill the host, and everything dies."

it makes sense, are every sith jedi turned to the dark side?

No, I would imagine most Sith were trained by other Sith just as Jedi are trained by Jedi.

I would have to agree with that, Ushgarak.

Ushgarak, about what you said earlier
if there were more than 2 they would kill the leader etc
so would that mean that Vader might kill Dooku??

he might, but as Vader or as Anakin?

Or dooku could be killed like Maul was, then Sidious would need to take another apprentice.

Feasible.

Sidious might kill Dooku, for that matter. Master and Apprentice will always struggle- it's GL's basic 'Evil is rubbish' lesson.

I always thought Sidious might have Anakin/Vader take Dooku out- and I don't mean to an expensive dinner. 😉

me too vader will kill dooku 🤘

so the apprentice wil kill the master whe he/she powerful enough? so when the apprentice can kill the master, then the master succeeded in training the apprentice so the master is happy when he dies? nice, this means that every pair over the generations are more powerful than the one b4, good concept😄

whoa....was that supposed to be deep?

Our man member can be very deep when he puts his mind to it.

No, the Sith's training is complete when he becomes the Apprentice ('Apprentice' is a very relative term in the Sith- Dooku is the 'Apprentice' but is more powerful than most Jedi).

The Apprentice will inevitably want to kill the Master and the Master will inevitably want to replace the Apprentice. One will eventually kill the other. It is not CERTAIN that the Apprentice will succeed in toppling his Master. The Master may even die of natural causes if he does well enough.

Yes thats true. Anikan is also powerful but not smart enough to know how to use it.

So Ush, if what you are saying is true, Anakin could be being trained by Sidious as a Sith, and he eventually completes his training and becomes the apprentice.

Yup, although I doubt any proper Sith training can start until he is on the Dark Side.

'Apprentice' is a very relative term in the Sith- Dooku is the 'Apprentice' but is more powerful than most Jedi
