- "By the immortal gods of the Sith!"
- ―Darth Vader
The immortal gods of the Sith were a pantheon of deities worshipped by the Sith. During the Galactic Civil War, a galaxy-wide conflict between the Empire and the Rebel Alliance, the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Vader swore by them during the Battle of Yavin, when his advanced starfighter got knocked out of the Death Star battlestation's trench.[1]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
The "immortal gods of the Sith" were only mentioned in passing in the sixth issue of the Marvel Star Wars series of comics.[1] The 2011 Book of Sith: Secrets from the Dark Side introduced several deities worshipped by the original Sith species. The Dark Jedi Ajunta Pall was associated with Typhojem, the Left-Handed God, and the Sith kings—also known as Sith'ari—were also viewed as demigods.[2] Additionally, Darth Andeddu was also referred to as the "Immortal God-King of Prakith" in Darth Bane: Dynasty of Evil, a novel published in 2009.[3]
