The Sith Empire Divisions and Ranks news

The Sith Empire Divisions

The divisions of the Sith Empire are as follows:
Dark Lord of the Sith
Sith Academy
Sith Military Forces
Sith Inquisition
Sith Intelligence and Assassination

Leaders of the respective divisions are seated on the Dark Council of the Sith.

Dark Lord of the Sith

Leader of the Sith Empire, Lord Urban Chaos 99
The title of Dark Lord of the Sith, or Jen'ari in the Sith language, originally referred to the ruler of the Sith Empire, and later was taken by the recognized leader of the Order of the Sith Lords. Before Kaan, there was only one Dark Lord of the Sith at a time, who was the head of the Order-in more recent periods, it was a title shared by multiple individuals simultaneously. The title Dark Lord of the Sith is often thought to be synonymous with the title Darth. Contrary to this, however, is the fact that Sith apprentices have been known to carry the title as well. Two examples would be Darth Malak as Darth Revan's apprentice, and Darth Vader as Darth Sidious'.

Sith Academy

Entrance to and life at the Sith Academy is difficult. To be admitted, prospective students are required to impress one of the teachers or students who are already in the Academy, receiving as proof a medallion, or to kill a student and take his or her medallion. Fallen Jedi usually do not have much difficulty in gaining admission, because they have already been trained in the ways of the Force. Prospective students are forced to compete against each other in a group; one would gain enough prestige to impress the headmaster and become a true Sith.

Sith Military Forces

The head of the Sith Military Forces is charged with the control of both the Sith Fleet and the Planetary Forces. The Head of the Military Forces oversees the tactics and battle plans of the Sith, it is their responsibility to make sure that when the Sith enter battle, they are organised, focused and committed to their cause.

Sith Inquisition
Head of the Sith Inquisition, Lord Noing
To reach the highest echelons of power, the Inquisitor needs more than Force Lightning and a razor-sharp mind. The most formidable Inquisitors dare to explore unorthodox practices by investigating the enigmas of the past and by unlocking new powers for themselves. The Force is a source of unlimited potential-a wellspring Inquisitors tap and bend to their will. Such intensity allows Sith Inquisitor to become architects of the Empire's future... or simply the architects of their own destruction.

Sith Intelligence and Assassination Agency
Head of the SIAA, Lord MacIomhair2
The Sith Intelligence and Assassination Agency (SIAA) is in charge of espionage and assassinations. Using the Sith Sleepers, the SIAA has agents scattered amongst the stars gathering intelligence and relaying It back to the SIAA which then uses the information for tactical strikes and also large scale offensives, rooting out opposition to the Sith Empire.
