Who is the most useless Sith?
When you want to gain influence in a society which is like those of the Sith you should be very good in your job. At least most of the time. Some Sith only seem to have survived and even recieved a title by pure luck.
I seven Sith in which last is the case (at least in my oppinion). The sequence of the Sith isn’t a rating.
Darth Caedus whos birthname is Jason Skywalker is the oldest son of Han Solo and Leia Organa and was trained to become a Jedi. He was strong in the force even though it was obvious that he wasn’t as strong as Luke Skywalker.
He tried to live like the Codex of the Jedi wanted it what you can also can recognize that his brother Anakin Solo died and Jason dind’t want revenge in murders without any sence.
That changed when he got captured and tortured by a Sith and had additionaly time to think about his brother and feel the sadness about his dead. Moreover, he had a vision that he is going to kill Luke Skywalker and hoped to escaped this destiny by becoming a Sith. (I don’t know what he thougt about the Sith that he regards joning them as a good opportunity to don’t kill a famous Jedi).
As a Sith he was more commanded and manipulated by others than following his own aims. Except killing Mara Jade Skywalker, Lukes wife he didn’t cause much damage. And he didn’t even defeat her in a fair fight so she was ditraced and poisoned by him. Eventuelly, he was nothing but psychologically unstable.
Darth Zhorrid was the daughter and only apprentice of Darth Jadus. When he died she was the lawful hair to his place in the Dark Council what she recieved after a view diskussions within the Dark Council. The reasons for that were that she was very yung and not much of her deeds were known since Darth Jadus kept them as a secret.
Unfortunately Darth Zhorrid didn’t know the secrets of her father and wasn’t able to gain respect from the other members of the Dark Council. Some of her actions caused that she was hurted by the other members physikally.
In the end she wasn’t able to do her job accurate what you can see when even the Minister of Intelligence was able to manage that she dosn’t has to do that much with the agents and he was hirachically under the Sith.
Her little influence also caused that the Star Cabal was able to abolish Imperial Inteligence and Darth Marr could use Lana Beniko as a Minister for her job without getting trouble.
(The alternative is that she get killed by Cipher Nine what is emberassing either.)
Lord Paladius, a is a carismatic person who was able to get a own Cult on Nar Shaddaa. Oficially he was there because of Sith artifacts but he didn’t seem to work that much and live in gluttony. That impression gets enforced when you look at his body proportions.
Another problem of him is that he is very selfsuficiant. You can watch this when you finally get to meet him and it comes out that he can seperate you from the force what will kill you. But he only mocks and frightens you until he says that he will fight against you even though his fighting skills aren’t that good. (That also approves the theorie I’ve made bevore since he hasn’t had that much training on Nar Shadaa).
Finally, you can ask if he is loyal, easy to scare, dump or just lazy. Bevore you met him fist he had time to prepare himself for the meeting and only had to look up what caused the earth quaque which you officaly only did by using the force. When he found the broken hydraulik lines, what shouldn’t be that difficult, he could show it to the others and reduce your influence as much as your credibility what will cost you a lot of followers.
After the fight you can decide to leave the cult to him but he will rule in your name. Sincce you dind’t care for the Cult after Nar Shaddaa (until Moff Pyron comes) he has lot of time to prepare his revenge but he didn’t do anything like that and only tried to get higher income by taking part in trading with technique. Now:
Is he loyal? - Possibile but it won’t fit for a Sith.
Is he scared of you? - Possibile either but he could use his anxiaty to fight me with more strengh since strong emotions give strengh to a Sith.
So the most likely option is that he is basically lazy and dosn’t care who is leading the Cult officially as long as he has direct influence and a convenient life.
Darth Millennial has a name which sounds very powerfull and he actually has some skills which are pretty cool what makes it sad that he didn’t use his opportunities.
When Darth Millennial was trained to become a Sith he developed doubts in some parts of the Sith philosopie, especially, the Rule of Two since he thougt it was better if the stronger one rules.
Since the doubts increased he run away at what he was almost killed and founded a new religion on Dromumd Kaas which was told “Prophets of the Dark Side”. The name had the reasond that Darth Millennial was able to see the future and claimed himself as the chosen one.
Over the years the “Prophets of the Dark Side”, which only existed secretly, were able to attract many force users in the whole galaxy. Even after Darth Millennial died at a high age on Dromund Kaas.
That was it. The man who had the philosophie that the strong Sith should rule the galaxy died without trying to spread his religion by fighting or fought against the Sith anyway.
Darth Gravid was a Sith who doubted in the Dark Side of the Force itself. But he didn’t wan’t to become a Jedi either and so he mixed up the teachings of the Jedi and Sith by adding things like altroism and emphatie to it what actually is against the nature of the Sith.
Since that wasn’t enough Darth Gravid became increasingly mad and destroyed Holocrons and artifacts untill he was killed by his apprentice for this reason. She even managed to kill him after he tortured her in fighting instead of basically killing her (what would fit to his philosophie but obviously he isn’t taking it this serious regarding himself).
The actions he did throwed back the Sith Empire about centuries and he didn’t save it at all what was the reason for his actions. (However you want to save something by destroing importatnt thinks of its history)
Thana Vesh is the apprentice of Darth Gravus and your rival on Taris. She is regarded as a good Sith who managed the tests on Korriban in record time.
But she can only use her full potential when she is angry what you have to cause like Darth Gravus did it in asking you for help.
Another problem is that Thanna wants to be regarded as the best what causes that she works inefficent by letting a mission least longer for getting extra kills. Of course it’s good to kill an adittional number of your enimies but not if the whole war leasts longer because of one person.
Another problem regarding her is that she is very directly for example when she tell Darth Gravus that she is going to kill him. It’s normal that an apprentice wants to kill his master and Darth Gravus may know that but it’s a difference if somebody has something in the back of his mind or if he has it at a curtain thread.
But you can say about her that she is fulfilling the mission in the end so it’s fine I think.
I think Darth Nox is the most suprising person to name in this text since he/she is the only one who survives the forcewalk more than one time and of course you play him/her what causes that of course all the quests are succesfull. Moreover I think that Darth Nox seems to be quit strong in PVP (but I’m not really experienced in this). Eventually you can say that you bind a Dashade, a feard assassin, at a very low level.
But I name him/her anyway because he/she is only trying and survives by a mixture of luck and help of other persons. You can see this right in the beginning when Darth Zash sends you in the Temple of the Dark side to get the artefact of Tulak Hord which belongs to the gost of Kallig only because she had a dream which predicts that you maybe are able to calm down the ghost. She also admits that she isn’t sure if you are the right person for that. So instead of informing him-/herself how she could be able to save him-/herself from Lord Kalligs anger Darth Nox went to the temple without having any clue what to do when Zash is wrong and it was luck that Kallig is an ancester of Darth Nox. When Darth Zash calls you to the Temple of the Dark Side again you are informed that her intentions won’t be good for you. Instead of going in her chambers for a short time (while she is in the Temple) and inform yourself about her plans you run to the point where you are supposed to meet her having no idea about the ritual she wants to do (and it’s obvious that she don’t want to give you the strengh of Tulak Hord. The Sith don’t trust each other especially not theyr apprentice so why should she give her apprentice more power than she has herself). If Khem Val wouldn’t save you by change you died there.
The same problem appears when you get to meet Darth Thanaton. Andronikus Revel warns you to don’t trust him as Zash does. Again you don’t inform yourself about the dangers in the tomb and would’t survive it without the help of Lord Kallig.
When you learn the Forcewalk you get informed that it is a bridge between life and death so you should think that it should have some unwanted side effects, especially when you know that even some artefacts make people crazy and Sith aren’t altruistic and there isn’t an obvious reason to teach it to you. But you don’t consider that as a posibility. Moreover the whole story didn’t work if your crew, especially Darth Zash who betraied you once, would do all the reserches for you.
Another problem which I have regarding the strengh of the Sith inquisitor is that you haven’t the strengh to defeat Thanaton on your own and need a lot of ghosts to do that. If anybody else had this strengh he or she would defat Thanaton either since it is not that hart to do this with the strengh of many people.
