Who is the most likeable Sith Lord?

So..Sith Lords are usually measured on the scale who's more evil, more twisted etc.

But here the question is, which Sith Lord do you find the most likeable?

Reasons may include personality traits, ideas held by said Sith, actions that make him or her somewhat likeable etc.

Discuss.

Plagueis.

He will train push you to your very limits, come close to killing you, and shatter you as a person but he will teach you every thing you know and bond with you to a level.

Traya as well

Likeable in what way? As in if I could like them as a person, or like things about their character?

Either of those will do.

Kreia. She points out all the bullshit from the Jedi and Sith but is also an incredible hypocrite and deeply flawed person herself.

I think the thing I like the most about her is that she's written like a person instead of a Sith. No insane darkside meglomania or mwhahaha I'm evulz! Just actual ****ing personality and character motivations that make sense and fit together to form a fully fleshed out person.

I also really like the mother-mentor relationship with the Exile. It's cool. Plus dat voice acting.

Caedus?

Well, I like Sith in general for the same reason I like (or to phrase this in a much better way, respect) some psychopaths. They have this natural ability to block out traits like remorse in order to further their goals without hindrance, they are masters of manipulation, highly intelligent and have an amazing ability to read people (what makes them tick, their underlying emotions and intentions) - and perhaps most of all, they are ridiculously driven. Not much will stand in their way if they want to get something done. You can't scare them, can't make them submit to pain, and you can't convince them that they're wrong, they just get shit done no matter what.

It's the type of personality that could make some great things happen in the world if it was applied positively, because of the sheer motivation backing the individual, but a lot of times psychopaths/Sith tend to be self-obsessed serial killers or high-ranking businessmen/politicians/people in power who abuse that position of power.

I'd probably pick Plagueis for a Sith I like. Maul is also one of my favourites because despite the life-long career of evil he was forced into from infancy, he's still managed to show some levels of humanity - on top of that, he's still a ridiculously driven, highly intelligent, tactical, manipulating, murderous psycho who gets shit done.

Traya seems to split people down the middle at times. I love her though, easily one of the most likeable SW characters.

Number two would probably be Lumiya, she's pretty human actually(ironic) she was trained by vader, was greatly disfigured and seemed to bond with Caedus. She's pretty kewl.

Number 3. Has to be Revan/Caedus tragic heroes who fell out of necessity.

and My personal Favorite/honorable mention is:

*drum roll*

Count Dooku, he's elegant, calm, cool and collected and the only sith to actually give of a damn for his apprentice, the fact that he cared for Ventress is pretty cool. Makes him kinda human. easily one of the more likeable sith.

Traya and Dooku.

Imagine if they got married and had kids....

How ****ing badass can you get?

They'd be incredibly powerful force sensitives.

I think darth krayt deserves to be listed. He decided to create a sith order and share his knowledge with them. He wasn't really a brute (up until he decided to wipe out the Mon calamari) and was only brutal to those that significantly failed/ betrayed him.

Kas'im had a certain charm.

Always imagined him with a Jamaican accent lol.

SHIT! I meant Kaan, not Kas'im.

Dooku I appreciate his refinement and elegant tastes.

My boy Teras has returned.

There's something of a difference between 'reasonable for a sith' and likable.

The guy's still intimidating as heck and I wouldn't want to have a casual conversation with him over dinner.

Not like, say, Dooku, who has a relatively pleasant persona.

Yea, Kaan is suave and silver-tongued. I picture him as the type where when you talk to him it's hard to not-like him, even if you know exactly what he is.

A pretty okay choice. 👆

Of course I'm not sure what the thread means by "likable". I mean, Darth Nihilus is my favorite Sith Lord. He's also not really "likable" in the way I think he meant. In fact, even Kreia ultimately wouldn't be very "likable" in person.

Dooku is a suave mother****er though, it's true.
