The very idea of "Sith Recuitment" is kinda hilarious.
"Do you want to crush the Galaxy beneath the boot of a tyrannical regime? WE'RE HIRING!"
And that's how the internal revenue service came into being
I seem to remember that there literally were Sith recruiters in KOTR and yes they basically were handing out pamphlets.
@@Rahhelthethird You mean KOTOR?
I just imagine a Kamino sith just being super passive aggressive.
I loooove that, spacist Kamino Karen
They are basically potential trolls in the making😅😅😅😅
I can imagine they would be angry they just wouldn't overtly show it.
@@isabelmcgaugh711imagine pissing one off and now you experienced the most inconvenient thing daily basis
I can just imagine a Kaminoan in a situation like that.
- Obi Wan Kenobi: "I have the high ground!"
- Kaminoan Sith: "It would certainly be shame if the earth fell from underneath you."
Were there any Sith pureblood Jedi? that could be both awkward and hilarious.
Jedi Master: "And what species are you, my unusual red friend? "
Sith Jedi:
"Erm... well..."
Darth Praavan (a Sith Pureblood in SWTOR) left the Sith Order and became a Jedi.

Sha-Koon to Palpatine: I have turned to the dark side and wish to be your apprentice.
Palpatine: That's a load of Sith and you know it. You and your species are known for their justice and kindness.
Kinda makes you wonder. How many characters really wanted to be sith, but got turned down. What do they do? Obviously too dark to be jedi, maybe they formed a screwed up anti sith. (And yeah, i know about the dark jedi, and other orders, but its an amusing idea.)
You're a genius
xDDDDD
Why do I picture Palaptine having a list of possible apprentice candidates and he just slowly crossed them out until he found Anakin lol.
@@yagdtigercommander That honestly would not surprise me.

The only thing Sith truly fear is demonic, hive minded teddy bears
Demonic, Hive minded, *HAIRLESS* teddy bears
So the Carebears.
Humans are the ultimate jack of all trades.
I think you mean "Jack of all TRADES," but yah!
Maybe, or maybe humans are the standard by which other species capabilities are measured. Or since they are the most plentiful species, differences in in individuals reaches greater extremes in the Bell curve (1% of a 1000 being the same as 10% of 100 type of thing) making humans over represent in areas were on average they suck.
So true, especially if they're children.
Of course, even they aren't invincible, as that poor lass on Amphibia proved.
I always thought it was "Jack of all traits"
@@szczypior2714 so did I, but geetsly is always right.
The Ithorians actually utilized hover technology to create floating cities so as to avoid disturbing their planet's ecosystems which I find absolutely cool.
Edit:The correct term is repulsor-lift technology
It's such cool world building for something they never show
Wait what did they use before hover tech was a thing?
@@taelim6599 Of course they lived in the jungles of their home planet before that but they still did whatever they could to avoid desecrating the jungles as much as possible. Their primary deity being "Mother Jungle".
Let's be honest Ithorians are basically alien hippies.
They just liked to pee over the edge :)
Picture a Hutt Sith, Lord of Crime.
There actually (sort-of) was one.
In-universe one of the more popular forms of entertainment were holodramas (our movies, but holo).
One of them, called "Juo Deltar Faces Gamblor the Terrible" featured a Sith Hutt named Gamblor.
I'm not making this up, just paste the title into Wookieepedia
Wasn't there a former Jedi Hutt turned Dark Side who got killed by Leia Organa in the third Callista book?
@@michaelandreipalon359
Beldorion the Hutt, yes.
However, "dark Jedi" are not exactly "Sith"
@John joseph Corona
While Force-sensitivity among the Hutts was rare, it wasn't completly non-existant. Also, as you mentioned, most Hutts became crime lords, so even if there was a Force-sensitive Hutt, it was extremely unlikely that one would join the Jedi Order. Beldorion was an exception, not a rule.
That said, not all Hutts became crime lords. Aside from Beldorion we have Dr. Juvard Illip Oggurobb, who (to the shock of other Hutts) decided to devote himself to science. His fortune came from high demand for his engeneering and medical skills, as well as from research grants and money gained by winning "Bao-Dur Science Prize" 5 times. By the year of 3631 BBY, he became a head of science departament in the Alliance against the Zakuulan Empire. That's where his story ends for now, but we may get more through SW:ToR expantions.
Another example can be Kossak Inijic Ar'durv, who at the height of Xim Wars united the Hutts and served as a political and military leader. While most Hutts are remembered for being crime lords, he was remembered for defeating and killing Xim the Despot in 25100 BBY
@@HonestHappyHater While true, Beldorion was fast on his way to becoming one when Leia killed him.

Barabels were inclined towards aggression and the word "forgiveness" did not exist in their language. You would think that they would be perfect Sith/Darksiders but they adhere to the Light thanks to the diplomatic work of Jedi Master Noga-ta.
And most didn't have access to the force.
Tell us about the demon bears.
Pan Pan, Grizz, and Ice Bear?
@@geetslys Yes.
@@geetslys even if it's just a 2 minute video I really want to learn about the Bilars. I need to know what's more demon bear than an Ewok.
Oh, interesting to know that the Sith also did this.
Always knew this
They are two sides of the same coin after all.
The sith want power.. force or political, not all races are really able to gain power in the ladder
It's funny how all the sith are obsessed with gaining power and beeing edgy but when Darth Bane was alive the sith were a bunch of sheep that blindly followed and served anyone that was stronger than them at least untill the rule of 2
I would argue the wookies would have been a species the sith rarely recruited from.
Id say compared to mny other species there arent many wookies in the galaxy
Force-sensitive Wookiees were rather rare, so between the fact that there was only a small pool of candidates to choose from and the Jedi would likely get to them first, this doesn’t surprise me.
@@JohnGeorgeBauerBuis Plus the Wookiees had strong family bonds that extended beyond blood ties due to their values of loyalty (Such as Chewbacca with Han and the Skywalkers) and though ferocious when provoked were largely peaceful and valued life. There are a few bloody exceptions but the vast majority of Wookiees would not be good candidates for dark side force users.
Although lets all agree a Sith Wookiee would be terrifying...
*Hanharr enters the chat*
Probably why Palpatine hated them so much.
Imagine a chadra fan sith lord tho. They could have the chadra fan sith lord with an ewok apprentice. I know its not in the vid but picture it.
Oh my
We know Ewoks ate the Imperials at ROTJ so it's not impossible for them to give in to Anger.
Dude!
I don't understand. I just read about Chadra-Fan on Wookiepedia and they don't seem Sith material.
I imagine they won't recruit from some species that have really really bad history with the Sith or the Dark Side. Like it giving a Nuke to some one with a vendetta against them that might want to kill them all off.
So, the Miraluka. Darth Nihilus destroyed the Planet Katarr, which caused their near extinction.
(Although Jerec is an exception)
...since the rule of two it's basically true for every apprentice. The apprentice goal is to kill his master.
...which, thinking of it, is pretty dumb. You ask somebody raised into an ultra individualist culture to hire and train his futur assasin for the good of the sith.
Realistically, you'll have 2 generation before the sith master decide to recruit an idiot who will never be a threat
Well its starwars... many races would be laughed at if they ran a powerful entity sith or not
Technically, from what I remember from legends, the Sith Order was founded when Dark Jedi happened on the old Sith Homeworld and intermingled with the population. Most of those dark Jedi were human, which explains why Human's hold such a high spot in the order.
In the Old Sith Empire the highest class were the Jen'ari (mixed descendants of the predominantly Human Dark Jedi who made up all known Emperors/Dark Lords before 5000 BBY) and the Sith species who made up the majority of the Empire's populace served them. Later, under Vitiate who was mostly of Sith blood the situation reversed, likely because most of the Sith race died in the aftermath of the Great Hyperspace War. The Sith then became known as "Purebloods" as opposed to the Humans who made up the bulk of the Second Sith Empire's population, and their prestigious history along with their natural force-sensitivity made them the new elite. A precedent thus existed from early on for a diarchy of species within the order between the original Sith and Humans.
I do wonder if a Dark Side user in a hive mind might also infect the whole hive mind, since the Dark Side is a bit like a cancer. If the Sith thought of that, it would just be another reason to avoid them.
I think the issue is how the cooperation of a hive mind handles the selfishness of the dark side. Sith may declare war together but they wage war like it's a battle royal, and for a hive mind that is structured for each individual to play a role the dark side influence might wipe them out or be separated from the collective to protect themselves.
also it defeats the purpose of the rule of two which is to prevent apprentices teaming up and killing their masters before they become strong.
Imagine what the Sith could do if they were open-minded enough to accept the Shard into their ranks, when the Jedi turned them away.
Basically what if General Grievous had Force potential.
Maybe you guys should do a video on the species that would be "good" recruits for the sith, i mean besides the more obvious ones like pure blood sith, humans, zabraks etc. The more obscure ones like munns, umbarans, anzatis you know? You guys probably have better examples but you get what i mean. Great video as always!
You know, I'm one of the rare few who do not have a phobia of clowns. Likely because I never had a birthday party that involved clowns as a kid, since my older brother does have a clown phobia. However, seeing those nightmare teddy bears, the Bilars could make me afraid of teddy bears.
How about dolls?
@@michaelandreipalon359 Not really, since I was also fortunate not to have my baby room filled with dolls. Although, I will admit they are kind of creepy. I wouldn't say I'm scared of them, or have a phobia of them.
Rare few? Lolz isnt it a rare few that ARE scared of clowns??
@@Stranger69in One, you do realize that you are replying to a 5 month old comment correct. Two, considering that it is one of the more common fears because apparently people not knowing what clowns look like behind the makeup scares people, I'm pretty sure that there is not a rare few that ARE scared of clowns.
You arnt a rare few, Infact many people couldn't give a fuck about clowns
Speciesism was definitely prevalent throughout the siths history to the point that outside of 3 individuals Darth Cognus Darth tenabrus and Darth Plagueis every other individual to hold the title dark lord of the sith was either human or half human
Venemous (technically), Gravid's Apprentice, Tenebrous's Master, Maul
Wasn't there another one, called Darth Karris,. She was a falleen i remember
@@jacktimson2401 Zabraks are near-Humans, so I suppose they'd fall under "half-Human".
He was retconned into being a Dathomirian, too, which was explicitly half-Human.
@stevenschnepp576 Fair on the Maul thing for Dathomirians specifically, but I thought general Zabraks were more "Near-Human"
Edit: it was my understanding that Near-Human and Half-Human were different things
And then there were the gungans... the most evil of all the sith!
One Gungan in particular...

I'd bet 2000 credits that the Empire or CIS used footage of Bilars as torcher on their foes. The freaky space Winnie Pooh's would be great for that. So there species can still serve a purpose to the power-hungry Sith, use them to break someone for intel or to join the Dark Side.

Another thing to remember is that regardless of the viability/pragmatism of one species or other, as far as the Sith Order was concerned, is that across the history of the Star Wars galaxy, the Sith were neither always as widespread or as prolific as they later became. They didn't physically know about or come into contact with a lot of species (as with other groups, such as the Jedi themselves) across large sections of galactic history. It's important to contextualise this.
At any given time the absolute knowledge base of the Sith about the wider galaxy around them, wouldn't always be exactly the same. We can take it for granted that in the Skywalker Saga timeline, the Sith have been around for a _very_ long time (over 7,000 years before the Battle of Yavin in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope) and that in this staggering time, in which the Jedi have been around even longer (much longer), they will have a deep and storied understanding of the history of the galaxy, built upon dynasty after fallen dynasty, era after era. Most of the Sith were long gone a thousand years before Episode I: The Phantom Menace. That's kind of the point of calling it a 'phantom' menace.
The Sith would have known a lot but also forgotten an awful lot by the time of Palpatine. He maintained a staggering understanding of the Sith history and culture, and embodied them perhaps metaphysically in more ways than one, as their last major scion and darkest star (though Vitiate would give him a run for his money on the darkness part; though Palpatine was stronger, officially the strongest Sith Lord that ever lived)
What matters is that in any historical era, the Sith would have had their own reasons and thoughts based on that paradigm's situations and traits, that made them come to certain conclusions. In some cases it might well be the kind of prejudices some people are mentioning in this comments section, but the general theme I'm seeing here is that most of the time it's about finding pragmatic options. If species just don't get angry and furious like the Sith tend to like to, then it's like a negative charge.
They don't have much business being a Sith then. It might be seen as a biologically deterministic situation, though again, the Sith want the attributes that they excel at, as you pointed out, as individualistic and emotive beings. It is less about 'racism' which I see being bandied around here, but more about _pragmatism_ regardless of what the individual Sith Lords themselves thought about things.
Sure, I'm guessing over 7,000 years of history you would indeed see a lot of them with hate in _that_ way, though again, what would the context be for each individual? The Sith still are a multi-species order (or were) and it's hard to generalise. There absolutely were humanocentrist Sith e.g. Tyranus and Sidious, but then again I'm sure plenty of non-human Sith were capable of hating humanity over 7,000 plus years. Maybe avoiding reading current year emotions into Star Wars is a good idea? lol The point here is that this is such a long span of time that it would be _bizarre if they weren't_ hugely divided and hateful.
To borrow a saying about arachnids, if there were 100 Sith Lords locked in a dark room together and you opened the door a while later, eventually there'd be one big Sith Lord left in the middle (I'm not accusing Sith of cannibalism I'm just saying that figuratively speaking they'd eventually turn on and kill each other until 1 remained, if at all; in the spider related saying, the Spider that remains is just the biggest and hungriest that ate more of the others than the others managed to eat of it; might be missing a leg or two and a couple of eyes but it'd be the mean old survivor in the middle, which is the point) Though, metaphorically speaking, it'd have to be _quite the door_ to keep 100 Sith Lords trapped inside it for long.
The Sith are not too dissimilar. They always destroy one another eventually. Whether or not they have a prejudicial hate from one era to the next, is somewhat of a moot point when so many of them just want to dominate all life anyway (and in the case of Emperor Valkorion/Vitiate, he got so crazy he wanted to outlive the galaxy itself and destroy and consume _everything_ so he could become a God; so dangerous the Sith themselves turned on him because he endangered all life in the galaxy let alone just them)
_It was ironic_ - Palpatine.
Have there ever be the cases of the Jedi and Sith who've fallen in love with one another? I know that sound unthinkable but it could happened. But it must be quite super rare.
Sith Lady Githany, a former Jedi, and Kiel Charny was one such couple. Jacen Solo (Darth Caedus, formerly a Jedi) and Tenel Ka Djo were another. Additionally, there was also Jedi Ben Skywalker (son of Luke) and Sith Saber Vestara Khai, who turned to the light side for a time.
@@JohnGeorgeBauerBuis add Darth Talon and Cade Skywalker
@@JohnGeorgeBauerBuis Githany and Kiel might not count, because they were both Jedi when they were in love.
@@dariyadara3764 They had a fling, they never loved each other.

8:45: Oh, dear Force, not again!

Can you make a video about the reconstituted Sith empire and the types of Sith like inquisitors Sith Warriors and Sith acolyte
Ok. But your discussion on Kaminoans raises an interesting point. You mention their rarity in force sensitivity. Now we know the force has a will. A certain level of conscious control. Furthermore, we know that this will has seen fit to eradicate the fire from species before, namely the Yuuzhan Vong, due to heinous acts against life. What if the fact that Kaminoans rarely exhibit force sensitivity is due to their crimes against life, such as their euthanasia. Further to this, the Hutts have rarely had force sensitives and the Chiss' force sensitivity leaves them as they grow old, where their less life like society becomes more prominent in their lives. Whilst the Chiss have never really committed mass crimes against life, they aren't the most life imbued species, and the Hutts heavily built up the criminal underworld in the galaxy, especially slavery. The Zyggerrians, also massive slavers, have also rarely, if ever, provided firce sensitives. Same for Mandalorians, who in the past committed mass genocides. Is it possible that, if the firce catches you quickly enough, it can prevent you from utilising the force?
Good theory but it's hard to speculate into why things are especially whether the force made it that way for a reason or not. Inside out bodies is an eternal war between bacteria if it stops it's because one bacteria won, it would cause us to become very sick perhaps the state of war in the universe is similar for the force and then maybe not we don't know enough about the force to start putting motives behind it, it could be so intelligent it's actions seem like madness to us.
Mandolorians are by nature warriors, while yes they have wiped out entire planets, you could say the same about force sensitives, they have the power to destroy an entire planet and it has happened before, i guess people having the force is more of a lucky chance.
@@P.Subaeruginosa Interesting idea. Potentially accurate. If we suggest that universe is an organism like concept, then the bacteria analogy is accurate. And yes, we can speculate on the force's motives. But it 100% feels like madness no matter what
@@r32guy85 And the force despises any conflict, meaning it wouldn't therefore be fond of warriors. We know it had some hand in the destruction of the Jedi, and entity that had become warriors, in 19BBY because it created Anakin. Its therefore reasonable to suspect that it despises Mandalorians. But my previous comment didn't account for the fact that Mandalorians aren't just one species, but many.
They are colned. Forceability is genetic.
The truth is that a Bilar claqa using the dark side (or the light side) would be too OP, that's why they got ignored. It would be like fighting a very fast octopus.
Me: “see’s he doesn’t say Gungans”
Also me: Could this mean darth jar jar is a possibility?
Well, being specific the Sith-Purebloods were a darkside natured race similar to the Night-Sisters. They were not inherently evil but more on the survival aspect of the force.
Only after fallen Je'dii found the planet and devoured the cultural and ritual behavior of the Sith-Purebloods and assimilating them into a crueler aspect of power hunger with their own Force knowledge, did they really become the aggressive expansionists.
So in a sense I can see why human "Sith" tended to later see beings of Sith-Pureblood descend or other species in a negative way. Their genetics after all really did go under after being bred out and therefor it probably told stories about which genes were more dominant.
Kinda depends on what means by "Sith," such towards a lot of the ever crumbling empires who didn't fully 'get' things, compared with a much smaller perhaps few who understood both Avarice and Restraint . . . to have Passion towards Power but also to what ends of it. Blind Aggression has its values but only goes so far.
i’d love to see a version of what species the sith and the jedi look for/prioritize as well!!
I actually have a Kaminoan Sith Character, Darth Cocytus, in a role play. Of course, though, he is absolutely insane, at least by kaminoan standards, whose intense anger is merely veiled behind his typical calm kaminoan demeanor. Basically, think Count Dooku but more ambitious and power hungry to the point of more fully embracing the Dark Side...
And he sounds like Baron Zemo from the animated Avengers...
I'm sure you let anyone on the Holonet for long enough and they'll become prime Sith material
We need an entire series devoted to the Bilar and why the hell they ever existed.
Some of the species in the Galaxy were probably more into the Dark Side if they members of a predatory species or one fed of anger and rage to thrive. That not to say that all predators species could be dark force users just more easily influenced by it.
That hinges on the idea that predator species are blights on the Force, or more predisposed to evil. When that's not true at all. Predator species are vital parts of any biosphere, who's lives maintain the balance and health of ecosystems. I would imagine that surviving off of the 'sacrifice' of other organisms, predators would favor the light side, which is just the Force in its natural state. Life exists in a careful balance, the cultural notions that predators are more 'evil' is just wrong.
@@TheSuperRatt Indeed. Pack hunters for instance would probably be less inclined towards the dark side as they hold strong communal bonds and a sense of collectiveness.
Wolves on our planet for instance will assist wounded pack members, by hunting extra. This would very much be in conflict with the dark side which prioritizes the self and strength.
Balance is the natural state of the force not the light side, just neutral! In fact I don’t think there is a dark or light side! It’s just how people use it or what they use it for!
I don’t think that’s entirely accurate. The “light side” refers to the will of the force guiding it’s users while “dark side” refers to it’s manipulation for selfish gain. This can also be seen in the behaviors of light side oriented species such as the Ithorians and the Kel Dor who valued life and nature, while the areas where massive numbers of lives are lost can produce “wounds in the force”. If using the “light side” is allowing the force to guide you that would imply that the light side is the force's natural state. The difference between a flowing river and one that is damned.
U should do a video on the Dark Side Dragons, the Hssiss
Oh, I didn’t realize this came out today. Nice work man.
Hey, thanks!
sure lets see the creepy pasta teddies from hell lmao!
Honestly I’m glad there’s no Sith Bilars around, they are scary enough already, I don’t want to imagine one running at you with a red lightsaber
The Khommite might count as while as a whole the cloned race weren't bothered with The Force, preferring their "perfect" cloning lineage.
However the Dorsk series of clones eventually showed Force apititude and two joined the Jedi Praxeum.
Ithorians are one of my favorite species in terms of design and abilities. Specifically their powerful vocal cords that could release shock waves.
Miraluka I am convinced fit in the same rare to be a Sith. Athough a few were Sith and Dark Jedi, Visas Marr, for example. But I am under the impression that Dark Sided Miraluka were extremely rare due to their philosophy plus the Luka Sene hunted down Dark Sided Miraluka.
Don't forget jerec, a male miraluka dark jedi who fought kyle katarn.
Actually I think a video on the Billars would be great, even though that picture of them in black and white looks nightmarish, their "group mind" is a really cool concept, and surely they aren't all hell creatures, that other picture with them fixing a starship makes them look rather normal even.
Why did it take me a good 5 minutes to figure out why this seems similar to another video you made.
Also, it’s funny but even my Light Sith from SWTOR is absolutely hostile to the Killiks, a hive species he encounters. The idea that they make Joiners hit his berserker button in a huge way. When he saw what they did to Daria Thul and others, he totally went KILL IT WITH FIRE. Light in that it was concern for others that started his fury and Dark that he was NOT handling matters peacefully one bit. (Plus as player I couldn’t hit the DS button fast enough. Seriously, “Light Side” to leave her as a mind-slave? FUCK. THAT.)
I couldn’t be a Sith. I wouldn’t make it. When it came to making the Sith sacrifice, killing someone I hated would have been easy. Making the sacrifice of killing someone I loved for the sake of being a Sith would be impossible. I couldn’t do it. Even if I had did it, my regret and guilt would have driven me to madness and ineffectiveness.
your regret and guilt could fuel the dark side in you
I would prefer to be a Jedi. Though I would prefer Luke's New Jedi Order.
@@0816M3RC me too. Luke (OT Luke, that business with The Last Jedi doesn't... doesn't count) is one of my real-life moral/philosophical role models anyway.
I think most people fall under that description.
Isn’t earth bane kinda wrong though? Sith like darth revan, darth nihilus, and tulhak hord were strong in the darth side. However, they came up in times when their were many sith.
the idea of Rule of Two was Revan's idea, but perhaps as a last resort.
A Sith teddy bear seems pretty scary
What the hell is a bilar? It looks like a more leathery skinned Ewok...
Who’d ever want to recruit from the Senate? That hive of scum and villainy was too corrupt even for the noble Sith. Not even General Grievous looked for meatshields from the Senate’s ranks when he was recruiting them to protect his droids from the evil Jedi and he’d take just about anyone to become meatshields.
I love that 'Sithy' is now an adjective 😂😂
Could you go over why some clones had custom markings and styles and some didn’t;
E.G : Waxer, Boil, Fives, Echo, Boost, Comet, Sinker, Jesse, Kix, Hardcase, Dogma and Tup all had custom markings even before becoming higher NCOs or Officers
Damit der Zuschauer sie von den anderen unterscheiden kann.
@ClicheDeathLord I’ve got a feeling that if they earn like a scout role they get to have custom markings
I think it started off as experimental, likely to make it easier to distinguish higher ranking clones from the regular rank and file but eventually became more widespread as a morale booster as well as to distinguish more specialized legions and units from one another.
@@CollinMcLean I’m not talking about the early stages, I’m talking about how some clones were just allowed to have custom marking even if they weren’t NCOs or Officers. I’m not talking about legions and shit
@@fn1709 I know... I'm saying it evolved into a morale booster for soldiers as they were given progressively greater freedom over how they customized their armor...
TLDR: only cool-looking species get to be Sith
if you go by the name of the Sith Order, the original human jedi that got exiled and eventually made it to Korriban became the Dark Lords of the Sith. They are the rulers of the original Sith species. That is why the Sith order has always been pro human. The 12 Dark Jedi exiles had to use Sith alchemy that they learned from the Sith species to be able to mate with the ancient Sith and eventually a new hybrid race happened which was part original Sith and part human descendant from those 12 dark jedi. This all comes from the old Tale of the Jedi comics if I remember correctly.
Hmph, cowards. Chaotic evil my arse.
FOR THE REPUBLIC!
Is it just me or would a Jiralhanae from Halo be execellent as Sith Warriors?
Imagine them acting as beserkers charging into the middle of battle, either duel wielding lightsabers or using a double-bladed lightsaber as they cut down Jedi in a near suicidal rage fueled charge...
I'd say that they're oversized zabraks, so yeah, definitely on the Sith's recruitment list if they're in the SW universe.
Jiralhanae, Sangheli, Kig-Yar, and San Shyyuum would all make suitable darks siders.
Darth Smith: "So, who shall we recruit as our next apprentice?"
Darth Jones: "How about that teddy bear over there?"
Darth Smith: "You know, I have to seriously question your selectment criteria, Dude."
"Please no, there are only 3 pictures of them on the internet"
Well, now you've got me curious.
No Hutt Sith when there are Hutt Jedi
I mean there were plenty of species that went for both sides???
So glad I found your channel! 🐨🍵 content!
At the time of the old Sith Empire they would recruit anyone with force sensitivity! It was a forced recruitment. Getting an army of Demon Tedy Bears was fair game!
How about the Coynites from Coyn in the Elrood sector? I believe there was only 1 Coynite ever who became a Jedi. None became a Sith. At least, as far as I know.
Am I the only one who stands up and salutes immediately when I hear "attention! Sergeant on deck" ?
Love that line in the description
Don't forget Wookies and everybody's favorite Teddy bears...... EWOKS !
This reminds of the chairman speech in hunter x hunter to the ant king " You have no idea for the infinite potential of malice in the human heart"
Good video, makes a lot of sense. I do wonder, however, how a hive minded species with force sensitivity would operate. Must they all be force sensitive or only a few? Would the few have positions of importance such as generals or perhaps more of food gatherers and nurturers for the young or both depending on which side of the Force they land on? If there was some hive minded force users, must they necessarily be destroyed from within or would the two sides of the Force get along? Perhaps only the more light sided users are kept and the more dark sided users are outcasted, or even killed, not too dissimilar to ants killing any female egg layer besides their queen. Would it be possible for the whole to act as one Sith on a species wide scale instead of an individual scale? Imagine that the Sith, Jedi, Nightsisters, and any other groups had to band together to fight against this Sith hive mind
Since you wouldn't do a video on the Bilars, there is something about the Star Wars Universe I would like to know. Why are interspecies romantic relationships so rare? I know a few exist but in universe so big I would think it would be the rule and not the exception.
Looking at mass effect (which focuses a little too much time on that type of question) different species have different diets, survival conditions, reproductive processes, and parenting styles formed from biology.
I don't think much of that has been filled in for Star Wars lore but I imagine there would be many of the same issues. Imagine a human releasing their mate has several or even dozens of babies at once. Or standard food being fatal toxic to you but having it in your house do to who you married. Or just a 10 degree difference in what temperature you find comfortable. Just due to to logistics species will naturally segregate to some level and if they grow up seeing their own species that will have an effect on what they find attractive, leading to even more segregation in the long run.
In TOR planets like Nar Shaddaa have all their sectors split up by species will minimum intermingling.
Hmm, compatibility? Tomcats are cute, affectionate and have huge spikes on their dicks... Because cats are demand ovulators and humans are periodic ovulators. Spectacular orgasm denial and internal injuries. That's one reason.
Some insects have acidic jizz - I kid you not - or traumatic mating (cut a hole directly to fertilise through the abdomen for example)?
Then there's genetic compatibility
Then there's the hmenthe/mantis experience (tales from mos eisley cantina). "A bored hmenthe - someone's in for a bad day..."
But most probably it's this. Most star wars authors and writers are American and they have "xenophobia" written through them like Blackpool rock - even if they don't realise it.
Every single Sci fi I can think of is human first and the simple reason is we're human. It's impossible for it not to be especially when we don't have other intelligences to deal with - and if we did, we'd either kill them or infect them.
One good thing though, if we get first contact, then we won't be represented as a planet by Darth Donald, the human equivalent of the Flood.
@@rosiehawtrey I have seen a lot of the old Doctor Who (which is made by British authors) and the "xenophobia" is almost worst there since literally all the aliens are hostile or want to exploit humans for something.
So I am not sure what being American has to do with it. I would argue the xenophobia concept more comes from the fact the sci-fi and horror are a perfect match. Phobia does mean a deep rooted fear after all.
I would recommend watching Babylon 5, it balances both screen time and audience sympathy amount the different species quite well with a huge focus on diplomacy rather then nuking each other.
@@rosiehawtrey You shouldn't trust US media too much.
I'd argue that the main reason is incompatable biologies. It's actually canon lore that foodstuffs and drinks one species consumes are harmful or even lethal to others. I recall one book about Obi-Wan's time as a Padawan had a communal species that required toxic sulfur crystals to live, but found common table salt to be incredibly toxic. Gand breathe methane instead of oxygen, and there's numerous references to certain beverages in cantinas being "incompatable". Droid bartenders were occasionally targeted by hackers who would request non-existent drinks, and then laugh at the resulting explosion. And some species are extremely different in their reproductive methods. For example, although Hutts were capable of appreciating beauty from the standpoint of multiple species (just look at Jabba's harem), they were mostly self-fertilizing hermaphrodites, and also too sociopathic to form relationships in the first place.
That being said, there are plenty of instances of interspecies attraction, or even relationships. The faleen were well known to use pheromones and attraction to manipulate others, and evidently, there were numerous instances of romance between humans and Bothans (I believe in the Legends canon, Wedge Antilles wound up marrying a Bothan). But I don't think the lack of interspecies romantic relationships is a matter of prejudice - more a matter of it just not usually being considered.
The ithorians are great Force healers of the corporeal & non corporeal varieties. The Ithorian, Chodo Habat, helped heal a small portion of Force connection to the Exile, Mitra Surik. (However you spell her name)
Camaasi: clinically cynical alcoholic lemur version of Bernard from Black Books.
Didn't see that coming...
PS wild lemurs very cute but they're also the reservoir species for yersinia pestis medievalis. If one looks dizzy or disoriented don't give it a hug. You'll end up starring in your own personal "House" episode.
full Billar video
Yes, full video on Bilars please.
Long answer, intergalactic planetary racism...
Short answer: Beastie Droids
YEAH ! MORE PLEASE ! This was Great !
Imagine an Ewok Sith though...
Former Twi’lek slaves turned Sith Lords sound like a good idea if u think about it. They use all that anger and rage from being in chains to fuel them
And thus the sith mantra of using the strength of your passions to break your chains.
@@briarrosegael2015
Very fitting
Lol love that Ki-adi-Mundi was the most sith-like Cerean. Also I bet Palpatine hated being the apprentice of a non-human sith?
Palpatine be like: Recruit you! Id rather be thrown down a mine shaft or a reactor!
I’ve been looking forward to this
Full video of the Bilars please!
Love to see this video redone after Mando Season 2. Weren't those all phase 3 dark troopers?
Yes! Full video on the Bilars!! This is my first time hearing of them...
Question: why do you say Ki-Adi-Mundi is a heartless scumbag? Just curious since I don't know much of him.
1:14 You are expecting Racists to be Logical? Not a good start.
However you also got a mix-up. The original Sith were a splinter faction of the Jedi, that were defeated, fled to Korriban where they interbreeded with the Sith Race. It is the fusion of Human and orignal Sith DNA that created the "Sith Purebloods".
In later stories, the Sith Purebloods are asumed to be extinct. Either due to interbreeding or genocides, the blood is mostly lost - meaning that Humans are the closest to the old Sith.
Yes, I would like an explanation for Bilars
8:55 why must you torment me with these things
1:42: Oh no, the Demon is back again!
Yeah give us a video on the Billars
What about tagruta?
Idk why but while watching adds before the video i thought of something.
If geonosians are hive minded and birthed by a queen, and a few happen to come out a force user, would that not mean the queen would have some abilities in the force?
After all it would explain how their hiveminded mantality works as that could be psychic powers via the force
