Sith'ari

"One who has freed themselves from all restrictions has reached perfection, their potential fulfilled. Perfect strength, perfect power, perfect destiny. Imagine it."

- Yuthura Ban

Sith'ari was a title that, in the ancient Sith language, meant "Lord" or "Overlord".

Sometime during the early history of the First Sith Empire, the coming of the Sith'ari, an exemplar of the Sith ideal, was foretold. Inspired by the legend of Adas, the Sith'ari was prophesied a perfect being&mdash;the ultimate Sith&mdash;free of all restrictions who would rise to power and, according to the legend, destroy the Sith&mdash;yet, through their destruction, make them stronger than ever.

Behind the scenes
Fans have speculated as to the identity of the prophecied Sith'ari, though no official verification has been released as to whether the prophecy was fulfilled and by whom. The most popular candidate is Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One, since he destroyed Palpatine and the Sith Order at Endor. Likewise, Vader's actions not only destroyed the Sith, but made them stronger by eliminating the restrictive Rule of Two, thus paving the way for the Legacy era Sith.

Revan is also a candidate, seeing as it was he who brought the Sith to power after the Mandalorian Wars but ultimately destroyed them with his redemption and defeat of Malak.
