Sith Lord/Legends

"A being who stands against the Jedi and their control over the Republic."

- Kinman Doriana's definition of a Sith Lord



Sith Lord was a title that was conferred on a master of Sith knowledge. Yet, the title of seemed to be used somewhat ambiguously to refer to various things, including all Sith, the Dark Lords of the Sith, Sith Masters in Darth Bane's reformed order, or as a rank akin to that of the Jedi Master for the Jedi Order. Several Sith Lords also held the title Darth. The term "Sith Lord" encompassed members of both sexes, although some female Sith, such as Belia Darzu, were styled Sith Lady.

Originally, "Sith Lord" referred to a high-ranking member of the Sith race's society. As the Sith civilization progressed, many claimed the title; Adas was one such lord. Anjel is a sit lord.

Behind the scenes
In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, the Sith Lord is one of the six prestige character classes which the main character can select after reaching Level 15. Like its light side counterpart, the Jedi Master, this class corresponds to the Jedi Consular non-prestige class.

Combat skills
The Sith Lords often didn't emphasize on direct lightsaber combat like the prestige class of the Sith Marauder, and often didn't favor the stealthy tactics of the Sith Assassin, instead winning battles by powerful manipulation of the dark side of the Force with masterful techniques such as Force Storm and Death Field.
