The True Sith split from the Jedi? Apparently you know something I don't.

 

 

What the hell else would be their goal?

 

There was a great rift in the Jedi Order that occurred 7,000 years before the time of the films, where many Jedi fell to the dark side and waged war on the Order. They were defeated and exiled from Republic space, where they came upon Korriban and Ziost, the two homeworlds of a primitive, dark side-wielding species known as the Sith. The Exiles were worshiped as gods, and they easily conquered and enslaved the Sith, eventually intermingling and interbreeding with them until the two peoples became one, and formed the Old Sith Empire seen in the Tales of the Jedi comics. It was this group of Sith-human hybrids that were defeated in the Great Hyperspace War.

 

That is how these "true Sith" are also linked to the Jedi, just as every other Sith group we've ever known. My idea was to use an event that occurred long before the Sith species were conquered by the exiled Dark Jedi -- and even before the formation of the Republic itself: the time when they staved off the invading Rakata under the leadership of their king, Adas, and were briefly propelled into a space age (having formerly been primitive) and relocated their capital from Korriban to nearby Ziost, before devolving and becoming a primitive society once again by the time of the arrival of the Dark Jedi. That way, they would have had nothing to do with the Jedi or the Republic and their goal could have been something entirely unique, instead of the same old "Kill the Jedi! Destroy the Republic!"

 

But what ever. We got what we got, and I hope they can make it interesting.

the dark jedi who took over the sith species had different goals from the true sith and r

not the "true sith" that kreia spoke of in the previous installment.

 

Okay, follow me:

  • The Dark Jedi who waged war on the Other Jedi conquered the Sith species and the two became one, forming the Sith Empire.
  • This group of Sith were defeated in the Great Hyperspace War.
  • A lone Sith from the Sith Empire escaped and fled to the Unknown Regions, where he started his own group of Sith whom Kriea referred to as the "true Sith."
  • It is this group that has returned to the Republic space and who are the antagonists in the upcoming MMO.

 

Do you see the connection now? I never said the Dark Jedi themselves were the "true Sith," but that the "true Sith" are a continuation of the same Sith who mingled with said Dark Jedi.

 

Got it now?
