Rite of blood and bone

"It is a rite acolytes have participed in for ten thousand years."

- Overseer Ragate

The Rite of blood and bone was a ancient rite practiced on Korriban in the Sith Academy.

To complete the rite, an acolyte was to enter a secret room and claim a skull from a bone pile protected by shyracks, an altar to the Academy's failed apprentices. Once the skull had been collected, the acolyte had to bathe it in a pool of blood. This would summon an arcane creature called the Bloodfiend, and the initiate had to defat the beast to prove their worth.

At the time of the Cold War, Overseer Ragate was the keeper and adminstrator of this old rite. Both the lord Kallig and an unidentified Sith warrior might have successfully taken the rite under Ragate's administration.
