A '''Sith apprentice''' was an individual (occasionally a child) that began serious [[Sith training|training]] under a [[Sith Master/Legends|Sith Master]], usually chosen by the Master him or herself, after the potential apprentice displayed an impressive act of loyalty or cruelty. In some cases, the individual pledged themselves to the teachings of the Sith Master, thereby becoming the apprentice. In other situations, the Master sought out the student, being guided by the will of the [[Dark side of the Force/Legends|dark side]] of [[The Force/Legends|the Force]]. Sith apprentices were analogous to [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] [[Padawan/Legends|Padawans]], and the relationship between Sith Master and apprentice was the analog to [[Jedi Knight/Legends|Jedi Knight]] and Padawan. A Sith apprentice's time as a student ended either with his or her death, or when the apprentice killed the master, taking on an apprentice of his or her own, thereby ascending to the rank of Sith Master.
   
  +
==Role==
'''Sith apprentice''' was a generic title taken by a [[Sith]] if he/she was an apprentice. In [[Darth Bane]]'s New Sith Order and the [[Rule of Two]], the Sith apprentice and the [[Sith Master]] both held the title [[Dark Lord of the Sith]] simultaneously, unlike the earlier tradition of a sole [[Dark Lord of the Sith|Dark Lord]] (though it appears that the apprentice didn't assume the role of Dark Lord until their training was complete).

{{Quote|Do I need to explain to you again what your duty is? It is to serve the Emperor, through me, his instrument. When you defy me, you defy him.|[[Darth Chratis]] to his apprentice, [[Eldon Ax]]|<ref name="The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance">''[[The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance]]''</ref>}}
  +
The role of a Sith apprentice was different from that of a [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] [[Padawan/Legends|apprentice]]. While a Padawan often accompanied their Master on whatever missions they partook, Sith Masters often sent their apprentices on missions alone. The Sith apprentice acted as an agent of the Master, doing their bidding and carrying out their will without question. It was not uncommon for the apprentice to face death, and even succumb to it while carrying out their Master's orders. In addition, a Jedi Padawan was taught by the master, whereas one studying under a Sith Master was to learn all they could from them; teaching was not necessarily the Master's responsibility.
   
  +
While Sith apprentices were always under the direction of their Masters, oftentimes they were allowed to pursue or birth their own schemes and machinations, further preparing them to successfully assume the rank of Sith Master themselves.
==Sith apprentices before Bane's Order==
 
*[[Ulic Qel-Droma]] (apprentice to [[Exar Kun]]; left the Sith Order)
 
*[[Darth Malak]] (apprentice to [[Revan|Darth Revan]]; usurped the rank of Sith Master from him)
 
*[[Darth Bandon]] (apprentice to [[Darth Malak]]; killed by Revan)
 
*[[Yuthura Ban]] (apprentice to [[Uthar Wynn]]; redeemed by Revan)
 
*[[Bastila Shan]] (apprentice to Darth Malak; redeemed by Revan)
 
*[[Visas Marr]] (apprentice to [[Darth Nihilus]]; redeemed by the [[Jedi Exile]])
 
*[[Darth Nihilus]] (apprentice to [[Darth Traya]]; died shortly after reaching the rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Darth Sion]] (apprentice to [[Darth Traya]]; died shortly after reaching the rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Darth Malus]] (apprentice to [[Darth Rivan]])

===Training===
==Sith apprentices in Darth Bane's Order==
 
  +
{{Main|Sith training}}
*[[Darth Zannah]] (rose to rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Darth Cognus]] (rose to rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Darth Millennial]] (departed before he became Master)
 
*[[Darth Vectivus]] (rose to rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Darth Plagueis]] (rose to rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Palpatine|Darth Sidious]] (rose to rank of Sith Master, having killed his master Darth Plagueis in his sleep)
 
*[[Darth Maul]] (died before reaching rank of Sith Master)
 
*[[Dooku|Darth Tyranus]] (died before reaching rank of Sith Master, betrayed by his master before he could set his own plans into motion)
 
*[[Vergere]] (fled after attempting to kill her Sith Master)
 
*[[Anakin Skywalker|Darth Vader]] (became Sith Master after killing [[Palpatine|Darth Sidious]], abandoned the dark side of the Force and returned to the light as a [[Jedi Knight]] in fulfilling Force prophecy as Anakin Skywalker)
 
   
  +
Sith apprentice training was both similar to and different from [[Jedi training/Legends|Jedi training]]. Sith apprentices learned from their Master's [[Lightsaber/Legends|lightsaber]] [[Lightsaber combat/Legends|technique]], and the ways of [[The Force/Legends|the Force]]: specifically the [[Dark side of the Force/Legends|dark side]] and how to harness it. Sith apprentices were taught to staunchly adhere to the [[Code of the Sith/Legends|Sith code]].

*[[Flint]] (abandoned the dark side of the Force and returned to the light side)

  +
In [[Darth Bane/Legends|Darth Bane's]] New Sith Order and the [[Rule of Two/Legends|Rule of Two]], the Sith apprentice and the [[Sith Master/Legends|Sith Master]] both held the title [[Dark Lord of the Sith/Legends|Dark Lord of the Sith]] simultaneously, unlike the earlier tradition of a sole [[Dark Lord of the Sith/Legends|Dark Lord]] (though it appeared that the apprentice did not assume the role of Dark Lord until their training was complete).

Darth Maul SWDA

Darth Maul, Sith apprentice of Darth Sidious.

"I wanted to see the true power of the dark side. Can you teach me to…"
"You will learn."
Zannah apprentices herself to Darth Bane[1]

A Sith apprentice was an individual (occasionally a child) that began serious training under a Sith Master, usually chosen by the Master him or herself, after the potential apprentice displayed an impressive act of loyalty or cruelty. In some cases, the individual pledged themselves to the teachings of the Sith Master, thereby becoming the apprentice. In other situations, the Master sought out the student, being guided by the will of the dark side of the Force. Sith apprentices were analogous to Jedi Padawans, and the relationship between Sith Master and apprentice was the analog to Jedi Knight and Padawan. A Sith apprentice's time as a student ended either with his or her death, or when the apprentice killed the master, taking on an apprentice of his or her own, thereby ascending to the rank of Sith Master.

Role[]

"Do I need to explain to you again what your duty is? It is to serve the Emperor, through me, his instrument. When you defy me, you defy him."
Darth Chratis to his apprentice, Eldon Ax[2]

The role of a Sith apprentice was different from that of a Jedi apprentice. While a Padawan often accompanied their Master on whatever missions they partook, Sith Masters often sent their apprentices on missions alone. The Sith apprentice acted as an agent of the Master, doing their bidding and carrying out their will without question. It was not uncommon for the apprentice to face death, and even succumb to it while carrying out their Master's orders. In addition, a Jedi Padawan was taught by the master, whereas one studying under a Sith Master was to learn all they could from them; teaching was not necessarily the Master's responsibility.

While Sith apprentices were always under the direction of their Masters, oftentimes they were allowed to pursue or birth their own schemes and machinations, further preparing them to successfully assume the rank of Sith Master themselves.

Training[]

Sith apprentice training was both similar to and different from Jedi training. Sith apprentices learned from their Master's lightsaber technique, and the ways of the Force: specifically the dark side and how to harness it. Sith apprentices were taught to staunchly adhere to the Sith code.

In Darth Bane's New Sith Order and the Rule of Two, the Sith apprentice and the Sith Master both held the title Dark Lord of the Sith simultaneously, unlike the earlier tradition of a sole Dark Lord (though it appeared that the apprentice did not assume the role of Dark Lord until their training was complete).
