Palpatine: "How the hell am I supposed to figure this prophecy out!? Screw it, I'll just recruit the Jedi's Chosen One and just say mission accomplished."
I was always under the impression the Chosen One from the Sith is the final Sith Lord, after all these years of accumulated knowledge the stronger apprentice slays the weaker master, when every apprentice is unable to slain the one master, that is the true Sith Lord.
Admittedly, this theory would work if things ended at The Unifying Force (the final NJO novel). Unfortunately, Darth Caedus, some eldritch abominations, and the Legacy era showed up.
I have to say i really like darth banes approach to the sith code, he achieves freedom through the force while the other sith lords shakle themselves because they are blinded by their ambitions
Also i really like how the jedi and sith both strive for the same but end up as being two side of the same coin. The sith see the world as a prison being held down by everyone else, but the force can give them the strength to overcome everyone else, where as the jedi see their own selves as a prison being held down by their emotions and attachments, the force gives them the tranquility to overcome themselves. Both sides see the force as a way to break free from mortal bonds, but their ways in doing so directly oppose each other
“To say that the Force works in mysterious ways is to admit one’s ignorance, for any mystery can be solved through the application of knowledge and unrelenting effort.”
Yeah I don't think a mortal being can understand the all-powerful energy force that controls the universe and literally they couldn't exist without even with "application of knowledge and unrelenting effort.” There are some things our minds just cannot grasp. "I know that I know nothing" -Socrates
@@calthekonqueror312 I disagree; one person alone couldn't understand but generations of study and research could eventually reveal the secrets. Whether one person could eventually centralize, though that might be the wrong word, that acquired knowledge in their lifetime is another question.
You know I'm starting to think the Sith just take whatever the Jedi are doing, change it just enough to sound sufficiently evil and then just call it a day.
Well a lot of their Force related traditions stemmed from them since at one point they used to be one. But once they mixed the (Dark) Jedi beliefs with that of the violent Sith culture things got weird...
@@killcharge4338 what do you mean? The jedi existed 20 thousand years before they met the sith and the sith didnt create light sabers they just improved them.
@@killcharge4338 no dude, read the tales of the jedi comics, in them the jedi had lightsabers before they met the sith. The sith only got lightsabers after meeting the jedi, the sith are the one's that removed the battery pack, they improved the lightsaber not invented it.
And there is no way the Chosen One will ever be redeemed and turn on the Sit-. Wait, whose that blond kid that bears a resemblance to the Chosen One coming this way. LOL.
I like the joke that every single Sith Lord in history is convinced that they are the Sith'ari. The hubris and the arrogance, and now I have an excuse to write a Sith who is convinced that she is the Sith'ari. On a more serious note, ever notice that the two prophecies don't contradict each other?
"On a more serious note, ever notice that the two prophecies don't contradict each other?" This is one reason why I think Anakin was both the Chosen One and the Sith’ari. It says in both prophesies that he will destroy the Sith, but also clearly be one. Kind of screams Darth Vader imo.
But think if it as if it did but he was merely latched onto zanah and she would at her death through the power and knowledge bane feeds her she does the same thing to her apprentice and then is now part of her with her master tagging along all stacking in power lol
Would have been so OP if bane had been passing down from sith to sith, but that’s not what he wanted, he didn’t need to live forever it was his legacy that mattered
I always thought that Anakin was the Chosen one of the force, not necessarily the light or the dark. He helped destroy the Jedi and then, with the help of his son, destroyed the Sith which freed the force of all the old traditions and allowed Luke Skywalker to become the true instrument of the force.
@@dominikberger412 it's not his return necessarily that's bad, it's that he has basically empire 2.0 without any issue for him, some kinda omega star destroyers with the power of a deatn star each and his defeat by someone that just picked up a saber.
In my opinion Darth Bane does seem to fit the criteria for the chosen one of the Sith best. But I also think this prophecy is intended (not just by writing, but also in the Star Wars universe) to be easily applied on sithlords. The Sith are eager for power. Most of the Sith seeing themselves as a chosen one just fits the way they act and its benefits them. If you want to be someone who can be "the chosen one" you need to become quite powerful, what means many Sith craved even more for power. All of this can create powerful Lords who represent the force of the dark side. In some way it's like an horoscope, easy to be construed in many ways to appeal to as many people as possible.
Quite so actually, and that's what made the Rule of Two so darn resilient as Darth Bane exploited this notion to build upon generation of generation of Sith until one of them finally would get to the point of destroying the Jedi.
The Chosen One stuff grinds my gears. It cheapens the end of ROTJ while simultaneously artificially closing the narrative door so any future Sith vs. Jedi or Dark vs. Light battle beyond ROTJ can be seen as "ruining" or "contradicting" its ending from people determined to crap all over anything after it. To me it's a misread prophecy at best and or a lie. In my mind, Anakin, Luke and Rey all are equally important figures in balancing the scales of light and dark every generation. The battle of good vs. evil is a never ending one. Eventually someone else will have to step up to resist the dark.
@@freshlybittenpillow77 yeah, that always bugged me about the Jedi prophesy. They took "the one who would bring balance to the force" as being the one who would wipe the sith and dark side out for good. That isnt' balancing the force, it is un-balancing it. To bring balance to the force, you have to wipe out both the Jedi and the Sith, the dark and the light, so that the force becomes neutral again. That *could* have been Kylo Ren, he almost wiped out both orders... but chickened out at the last moment and saved the Jedi cos he had the feels lol
all of this makes perfect sense, in fact as soon I saw translation of the prophecy I was like - Bane as he is the only character I know that purposefully destroyed Sith Order of his time and recreated it, and its thanks to him that Uncle Shiv eventually became the Senate
It would make sense as he destroyed not only the jedi(bringing balance to the force) but his kamikaze attack on Palpatine essentially destroyed the last of the sith. His life would then go onto to inspire the rebirth of a sith like individual in kylo ren, full filling all major plot points in both prophecies.
@@slimdankbeams8165 the thing is that if you are looking at the sith as just the rule of 2 then yes. But darth vader comes over 900 years after darth bane. While the sith were never a massive group like the sith empire again they did slowly add some sith assassins (maul,ventress,etc) we also see the rise of the inquisitors. So while there are only two lords of the sith the organization is broader than that if only slightly. Also the prophecy never says rule the sith instead it says lead. If you look at the broader sith order it is hard to say vader was not a leader. It would be similar to saying the vice president is not a leader. While he may not be the highest authority this prophecy dose not explicitly state that the Sith'ari must be.
Hilariously the bring balance to the force part would make a whole lot more sense if he was the Chosen one of both, the Force or what ever the SW God pulled a a Troll move on both orders.
What if the "Sith'ari" and the jedi "chosen one" are the same prophecy, but after thousands of years of mistranslation and bias it became 2 prophecies? Each to reflect light and dark? I've read the darth bane trilogy and while I enjoyed the books greatly (read them all at least 3 times) I never thought of Bane as the Sith'ari
The way I interpret the prophecy is the same way legacy of kain did theirs when it came to the vampire/hylden champion. Both races essentially prophesied the same person(raziel) as their champion. So in regards to the sith and jedi prophecy, they essentially prophesied anakin not knowing his name obviously. Anakin did what both prophecies said the chosen one would do.
That does make sense as both talk about the destruction of the Sith. Perhaps the Chosen one was to like a wildfire. Burn away the old so new growth can happen. Burn away the Old Jedi Order and the Sith so a new Jedi Order can take route and sprout.
It isn't. It predates the Dark Jedi arrival on Korriban, harkening back to a Sith (the species, not the philosophy) King who drove off a Rakatan invasion nearly 3000 years before the Republic was founded and near enough to 20,000 years before the Dark Jedi fleeing their defeat in the first Schism became the Sith as we would recognize them. It might be a vision of the same *person*, but it's not a divergence of the same prophecy.
I’d argue that it was Vader. Perhaps this prophecy of a “chosen one” predates the separation of Jedi and sith from their origin species/civilization. The Jedi thought it would someone who destroyed the Sith. Vader did that. The Sith thought it would be someone who overthrew the republic and destroy the Jedi order. Vader was instrumental with the former and did the latter.

Too bad only like 20% fandom knows lore like this. And it doesn't help that it's designated as Non-Canon, thus warding off incoming fans that know what Canon and Non-Canon information means. I hate that the universe I spent years learning so much about has no validity or purpose anymore. I hate Disney and (current) Lucasfilm equally; fuck Canon...
@@blackshogun272 Don't act like all of it was good. It wasn't. In fact, I'd say the majority of it wasn't good. But respect the labels. The word "legend" implies a story that's shrouded in mystery. Something that could be true, it could not be true also. It gives room for them to bring back or change things from the old canon as they see fit. If you were to include the stuff in legends, star wars would be a bloated franchise with no room to add or improve. The "legends" approach is the most respectful way to go about it. Think about that aspect a bit.
@@Kjf365 that's a cap. Legends still had a shit ton of areas to further explore or expand upon. Having it as a valid alternate Canon wouldn't have hurt anyone...
When you talk about darth Bane you pulled up an image of darth Malgus, from SWTOR. There is a canonical image of darth Bane as a force ghost/spirit, from the clone wars series, it was one of the final episodes and detailed Yoda learning how to keep his consciousness after death.
There is more than one. Bane was properly the second, and Krayt was the last. Adas was no doubt the original. Jedi have more than one chosen one as well. Revan, Anakin, some say Luke, etc, etc.
also, we know from the books that neither Darth Plagieus nor Darth Sidious followed the Rule of Two. Plaguis wanted himself to be the last and immortal sith lord, with Sidious as his eternal apprentice and partner. Sidious in turn, wanted power for himself, and kept multiple poorly trained apprentices purely for the sake of helping him attain and maintain power. his biggest strength was his ability to manipulate people. I'm under the impression that Sidious didn't care about the Sith or their teachings per se, he just wanted power for himself.
What if... Darth Sidious was literally every “Sith that came before me” in that every individual in the Banite line of Sith was actually Bane’s soul being passed from Master to Apprentice?
I thought about this aswell a sneaky way to cheat death force essance transfer because they always say "strike me down" or "you have to kill me to take the title" a intresting way to survive jumping into another s body. As in TROS darth sidious literally says to rey strike me down and my spirit will pass into you aka force essance transfer is cannon
Even before the video started I declared Darth Bane as the only sithari. And to discover myself correct was amazing. Bane is the best candidate because he destroyed the old sith and created the new order that would finally succeed.
.....and then it failed again. For it to suceed, you would need 100,000 years of Sith rule of the Galaxy. Or in perpetuity. We got, what, a couple of hundred years at best?
It’s funny How the Jedi created their own enemy the Sith. The Sith one day had a “chosen one” who Destroyed the Sith only leaving a few survivors. Only for the Sith to create THEIR own enemy By accidentally creating the Jedi’s “chosen one” who ended up Destroying the Jedi Order leaving only a few survivors. Just goes to show you, we create what we fear. And History’s a broke record.
You touched on the prominence of "The Chosen One" trope in media but if you accept Sith'ari Bane as canon, it does open up a slightly more unique take on the old cliche. The Chosen One ALREADY happened, a derivation of the trope that we rarely see. And with that perspective, we can view the events that led up to Sith'ari Bane and the effects their power left on their universe.
I always interpreted it as two different prophecies from two different orders about the same person, the Chosen One and the Sith’ari are the same person and the Jedi and Sith predicted the same events, they just saw it all through different tinted glasses and their interpretations were wildly different. So the answer to both prophecies is Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. More interesting/amusing to me are the internal conflicts over the Sith’ari prophecy within the Sith orders, and how just about every new faction of Sith would disavow the prior incarnations as limp-wristed poseurs while they were the REAL Sith and their leader was of course the Sith’ari. Many Sith claimed the title over the years, because they all have such egos they couldn’t even conceive of anybody coming after them that might be better, so surely they must be the pinnacle of Sith achievement themselves. lol
I think this is a very interesting and symbolic interpretation, though it has been confirmed that it is Darth Bane. But it is still a cool interpretation.
And yet a thousand years later Sidious still thought he was the one. If even the Sith in-universe still didn’t think the matter was settled, just how “confirmed” is it really?
According to the Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia from 2008 yes. But it was the 2012 Book of Sith that showed later Sith claiming the title. I’d give more credence to the Book of Sith, even if it was meant as sort of a running joke by the author to show the hubris of the in-universe “authors.” Book of Sith is meant to be a journal from in-universe, the Encyclopedia is just a reference book. Aside from the fact that Book of Sith is more recent, reference books are often retconned or just plain inaccurate, and could more accurately be said to reflect what is canon and true at the time of their publication not so much what is canon and true forever, if other sources come along and contradict them. This is one of those situations as I see it, and the video is inaccurate and operating on old intel.
I'm sure it's Rey Skywalker, she's the greatest Jedi, the greatest Sith, the greatest pilot. She doesn't even need training to beat up Luke Skywalker or out fly Han Solo in his own ship. Who else can out Sith a Sith but Rey Skywalker.
My issue is that during the thousand years of the rule of two there must have been other dark side force welders to arise. My point is that in order to maintain the rule of two a Sith lord would have to fight both Jedi and those who have fallen into the dark side. Plus having to hunt down and assassinate other up and coming dark siders.
6:31 I never understand why so many people are confused about Bane's line of sith. Besides the fact Revan, Malak, and Traya-Nihilus-Sion weren't descendants, the Bane line ended with Sidious. Maul, Tyrannus, and Vader were tools, Sidious rejected the rule of two and strove to live forever as the Lord of the Sith.
Darth Bane and Darth Malgus aren't exactly the same guy.... also, Revan. I think Revan fit both the Jedi chosen one and Sith'ari at the same time. He brought balance to the force by starting and ending the Jedi civil war, and directly leading to Vitiate's destruction, destroyed the Sith under Malak, but it was his teaching that made Darth Bane make the rule of two
One huge fault in Darth Bane's philosophy of the Rule of Two is that it still doesn't fully prevent the lesser apprentice from murdering the greater master using external means such as poisoning, hiring contracted killers and private armies. Darth Sidious resorted to getting his master drunk and killing him in his sleep, for example. Blatantly ignoring an honorable challenge to fight to the death, where you'd fully test your powers against your opponent, may the strongest Sith survive and reign as Master. It's likely that Sidious trajectory of power is still lesser than that his master would've had, had he not been killed in his sleep. The rule of two also puts huge risks of extermination of the Sith order, as also shown when Sidious had not only murdered his master, but sent his apprentice off effectively to his death, leaving Sidious as the only Sith for a while. This same risk he took again later, when ordering the killing of Count Dooku. Had his plan failed at any time or had he accidentally died due to any unforeseen health complications or a stray assassination attempt, the Sith legacy would've stopped dead in its tracks, partly fault of Darth Bane.
Agreed Palpatine also meets this, as he created a way of immortality with his power in a way he couldn't be stopped for both himself and an apprentice.

LOVE that mural of all the sequential Sith Lords at T.S. 6:30 just wish we could have seen the names for the bottom row, as I wanted to screen-shot it. Is there a source to reveal? Thanks again my friend for a great vid! :)
this taught me something of sith history that i didnt know. btw that wasnt bane you showed that was malgus. its easy to confuse the two. nonetheless awesome video. appreciate this sith Knowledge.
I recently listed to the Bane audio novels and while you listed the candidates of Sith saviors. I though to myself, Bane is unequivocally the Sith chosen one. Bane in every aspect embodies the Sith traditions and culture. Proven by growth, ability to recognize the weakness and betrayal the dark brotherhood disgraced the Sith in and of itself. Alway down to his master making excuses for B.O.D corruption for the sake of peace and pin pointer at that moment his master was a fool and no longer a master. Bane is the Sith chosen one.
There's so many characters that fit the description for the Sith'ari that it's unclear who it actually is just like the Chosen One prophecy was unclear until those events transpired. Unlike the Chosen One prophecy though, there's a lot of events that match to the Sith'ari prophecy that it could be either one of these candidates: Darth Revan, Darth Vader, Darth Bane, or Palpatine So it really is up for debate if the Sith'ari appears whenever there's an imbalance in the force or that it's only one being like the Chosen One prophecy? (I know I mentioned Darth Vader on my list, but for all we know the Sith'ari and the Chosen One could be the same person?)
Jedi: "isn't it awesome how we have these temples and hundreds of members and don't believe that the sith are even left , but if they are there are only two of them!" Also Jedi: "can't wait for someone to balance that out!"
It’s like communism when you hear of it sounds good but when yo uexpirience it you realize how Equality is achieved and that you might not live to see it
I always figured Anakin was chosen one for both sides. He brought balance to the force by getting rid of the jedi and ultimately emperor palpatine removing jedi and sith from being the deciding power in the galaxy (then episodes 7,8,9 came out)
Yoda. He *has* to be Sith and experten - after all, all he had to do was stand there and let everything happen whilst saying "give a toss, I don't" then waddle off to a dark side cave. Sith'ari Yoda and his apprentice Jar Jar.
Please make a video explaining the lore and history behind the gray jedi. Im really interested in the gray jedi, and why all force users aren't gray. I dont understand why all who fall to the darkside of the force become evil, and commit evil acts. You are the only youtuber that talks about star wars that I genuinely enjoy. Please, and thank you
Bane is my favorite Sith Lord. His rise and inevitable fall also shows his theory that the dark side is like a venom has ground. Like all venoms it started corrupting him he started to believe his choosing apprentice wasn’t fit for the job and tried prolonging his life which inevitably showed he made the correct choice in apprentice
Immediately I thought bane. He literally trapped the entire brotherhood of darkness and part of the army of light into the thought bomb. The way its deacons in the book is very bone chillling. A fate worse than death.
Neither were really correct. I'd like to know if the Grey Force wielders had their own version of the Chosen One. I feel as though it would be much more accurate, as they chose the Force to guide them, rather than using the Force for their own will. Also remember that, when under the ideals of a prophecy, you do what you think is right for the prophecy to come to fruition. This creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, rather than a true one. The Grey Force wielders wouldn't do what they thought would assist in the prophecy, they'd do what the Force requested of them at the time.
Lot of lore that their stuff that contradict each other. From what heard the Sith think the force is limited and believe that by limiting the amount of people that have it they can be more powerful because it concentrate the power of the force. That why they had the rule of two and why Sith targeted other Darkside user and other force groups.
James LeDuke The average Sith (not even a Master/Lord) during TOR in general would absolutely dogshit most of the Sith during The New Sith Wars. Among their diverse and weakened ranks were a few alphas but even they'd be hard pressed if forced to deal with a well-trained Sith Warrior or Assassin from the ancient days. It was only when Darth Bane (not a Banite dick rider) brought back true quality into the Sith Order that they closed that gap in power that the ancients flexed on the battlefield and across worlds. Too bad he was hella paranoid about perfection and quality that there were only two dominant Sith in his Order's beliefs. It was a dark miracle that his Order survived with such few members in the shadows and with Jedi numbers growing...
@@whatsup2318 But what if they know/predict that you are completely clueless? They'll just use their regular tactics to find and capture you, and since your strategy will be arbitrary, it won't help you outmaneuver their tactics. In fact, it could worsen your chances if anything.
I like that bane was the sith chosen one. But the way you phrased it was that he came up with the ideas himself. He had gained a lot of the knowledge about the sith being to diluted from Darth Revan's holocron.
I was under the impression that it was Darth Malgus. He was the embodiment of what the sith wanted in an individual. He was thought dead twice and kept returning. As well as he was not afraid to tell the dark council what he thought, and even made his own “true sith empire” when he thought the current one was to weak and political.

In my opinion Darth Bane does seem to fit the criteria for the chosen one of the Sith best. But I also think this prophecy is intended (not just by writing, but also in the Star Wars universe) to be easily applied on sithlords. The Sith are eager for power. Most of the Sith seeing themselves as a chosen one just fits the way they act and its benefits them. If you want to be someone who can be "the chosen one" you need to become quite powerful, what means many Sith craved even more for power. All of this can create powerful Lords who represent the force of the dark side.
In some way it's like an horoscope, easy to be construed in many ways to appeal to as many people as possible.
Quite so actually, and that's what made the Rule of Two so darn resilient as Darth Bane exploited this notion to build upon generation of generation of Sith until one of them finally would get to the point of destroying the Jedi.
I mean, it definitely makes more sense than Disney trying to explain how Rey is the chosen one.
Dave Filoni & Jon Favreau to Disney: no no he’s got a point
@@haroldtheherald6637 rey shadow legends.

Rey is not a chosen one. She is a literal God.
The Chosen One stuff grinds my gears. It cheapens the end of ROTJ while simultaneously artificially closing the narrative door so any future Sith vs. Jedi or Dark vs. Light battle beyond ROTJ can be seen as "ruining" or "contradicting" its ending from people determined to crap all over anything after it.
To me it's a misread prophecy at best and or a lie. In my mind, Anakin, Luke and Rey all are equally important figures in balancing the scales of light and dark every generation. The battle of good vs. evil is a never ending one. Eventually someone else will have to step up to resist the dark.
The chosen one, was to destroy both the sith and jedi, but they thought only one would be destroyed, as we saw with anakin.
And then Disney tried yo revive both dead orders miserably...
@@Blessed_V0id Tried and failed
Brings balance to the force.
@@freshlybittenpillow77 yeah, that always bugged me about the Jedi prophesy. They took "the one who would bring balance to the force" as being the one who would wipe the sith and dark side out for good. That isnt' balancing the force, it is un-balancing it. To bring balance to the force, you have to wipe out both the Jedi and the Sith, the dark and the light, so that the force becomes neutral again. That *could* have been Kylo Ren, he almost wiped out both orders... but chickened out at the last moment and saved the Jedi cos he had the feels lol
all of this makes perfect sense, in fact as soon I saw translation of the prophecy I was like - Bane as he is the only character I know that purposefully destroyed Sith Order of his time and recreated it, and its thanks to him that Uncle Shiv eventually became the Senate
It’s my personal belief that the Sith Chosen One was also Anikin mostly because that would be funny.
It would make sense as he destroyed not only the jedi(bringing balance to the force) but his kamikaze attack on Palpatine essentially destroyed the last of the sith. His life would then go onto to inspire the rebirth of a sith like individual in kylo ren, full filling all major plot points in both prophecies.
Anikin the chosen. His title for both sides XD
Anakin never lead the sith though, he was always under Palpatine, that being said, the rest sounds likely for Anakin
@@slimdankbeams8165 the thing is that if you are looking at the sith as just the rule of 2 then yes. But darth vader comes over 900 years after darth bane. While the sith were never a massive group like the sith empire again they did slowly add some sith assassins (maul,ventress,etc) we also see the rise of the inquisitors. So while there are only two lords of the sith the organization is broader than that if only slightly. Also the prophecy never says rule the sith instead it says lead. If you look at the broader sith order it is hard to say vader was not a leader. It would be similar to saying the vice president is not a leader. While he may not be the highest authority this prophecy dose not explicitly state that the Sith'ari must be.
Hilariously the bring balance to the force part would make a whole lot more sense if he was the Chosen one of both, the Force or what ever the SW God pulled a a Troll move on both orders.
7:30 "Darth Bane, who established the rule of two..."
That's a picture of Darth Malgus. Close... I guess? They're both bald.
What if the "Sith'ari" and the jedi "chosen one" are the same prophecy, but after thousands of years of mistranslation and bias it became 2 prophecies? Each to reflect light and dark? I've read the darth bane trilogy and while I enjoyed the books greatly (read them all at least 3 times) I never thought of Bane as the Sith'ari
The way I interpret the prophecy is the same way legacy of kain did theirs when it came to the vampire/hylden champion. Both races essentially prophesied the same person(raziel) as their champion. So in regards to the sith and jedi prophecy, they essentially prophesied anakin not knowing his name obviously. Anakin did what both prophecies said the chosen one would do.
Yeah! I allways thought Bane was batman villain!
That does make sense as both talk about the destruction of the Sith. Perhaps the Chosen one was to like a wildfire. Burn away the old so new growth can happen. Burn away the Old Jedi Order and the Sith so a new Jedi Order can take route and sprout.
It isn't. It predates the Dark Jedi arrival on Korriban, harkening back to a Sith (the species, not the philosophy) King who drove off a Rakatan invasion nearly 3000 years before the Republic was founded and near enough to 20,000 years before the Dark Jedi fleeing their defeat in the first Schism became the Sith as we would recognize them.
It might be a vision of the same *person*, but it's not a divergence of the same prophecy.
@@DarkRaven4649 I love this community. This shit is so fascinating
I’d argue that it was Vader. Perhaps this prophecy of a “chosen one” predates the separation of Jedi and sith from their origin species/civilization.
The Jedi thought it would someone who destroyed the Sith. Vader did that.
The Sith thought it would be someone who overthrew the republic and destroy the Jedi order. Vader was instrumental with the former and did the latter.

@@AndreNitroX But they were trained in the way of the sith, which matters?
@@shawnwing-kovarik9762 Yes, but they weren't taught the real sith stuff.
@@AndreNitroX oh, ok
also, we know from the books that neither Darth Plagieus nor Darth Sidious followed the Rule of Two. Plaguis wanted himself to be the last and immortal sith lord, with Sidious as his eternal apprentice and partner. Sidious in turn, wanted power for himself, and kept multiple poorly trained apprentices purely for the sake of helping him attain and maintain power. his biggest strength was his ability to manipulate people. I'm under the impression that Sidious didn't care about the Sith or their teachings per se, he just wanted power for himself.
At 7:29 you used a picture of Darth Malgus for Darth Bane. Darth Bane was covered in carapace.
What if... Darth Sidious was literally every “Sith that came before me” in that every individual in the Banite line of Sith was actually Bane’s soul being passed from Master to Apprentice?
arent there deaths of sith masters both in cannon and legends where it would have been impossible for the ritual of essence transfer to take place?
I thought about this aswell a sneaky way to cheat death force essance transfer because they always say "strike me down" or "you have to kill me to take the title" a intresting way to survive jumping into another s body. As in TROS darth sidious literally says to rey strike me down and my spirit will pass into you aka force essance transfer is cannon

Rule of Two in Legends: Implemented to keep the Sith strong and pure, always making sure they survive.
Rule of Two in Disney: fOrcE DyAD
Hey, thanks Geetsly, I was just wondering if the Sith had a Chosen One Prophecy.
One sith to rule them all, one sith to slay them, one sith to train them and in the darkness BIND THEM
You ever tried to spell akh-naz-gimbatul on a triple letter score....?
Even before the video started I declared Darth Bane as the only sithari. And to discover myself correct was amazing. Bane is the best candidate because he destroyed the old sith and created the new order that would finally succeed.
.....and then it failed again. For it to suceed, you would need 100,000 years of Sith rule of the Galaxy. Or in perpetuity. We got, what, a couple of hundred years at best?
@@AlIguana i believe that is done on purpose by the writers, to show that evil does not always rule forever.
Every sith ever: "maybe I'm him"
It’s funny How the Jedi created their own enemy the Sith. The Sith one day had a “chosen one” who Destroyed the Sith only leaving a few survivors. Only for the Sith to create THEIR own enemy By accidentally creating the Jedi’s “chosen one” who ended up Destroying the Jedi Order leaving only a few survivors. Just goes to show you, we create what we fear. And History’s a broke record.
You touched on the prominence of "The Chosen One" trope in media but if you accept Sith'ari Bane as canon, it does open up a slightly more unique take on the old cliche. The Chosen One ALREADY happened, a derivation of the trope that we rarely see. And with that perspective, we can view the events that led up to Sith'ari Bane and the effects their power left on their universe.
I always interpreted it as two different prophecies from two different orders about the same person, the Chosen One and the Sith’ari are the same person and the Jedi and Sith predicted the same events, they just saw it all through different tinted glasses and their interpretations were wildly different. So the answer to both prophecies is Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.
More interesting/amusing to me are the internal conflicts over the Sith’ari prophecy within the Sith orders, and how just about every new faction of Sith would disavow the prior incarnations as limp-wristed poseurs while they were the REAL Sith and their leader was of course the Sith’ari. Many Sith claimed the title over the years, because they all have such egos they couldn’t even conceive of anybody coming after them that might be better, so surely they must be the pinnacle of Sith achievement themselves. lol
I think this is a very interesting and symbolic interpretation, though it has been confirmed that it is Darth Bane. But it is still a cool interpretation.
And yet a thousand years later Sidious still thought he was the one. If even the Sith in-universe still didn’t think the matter was settled, just how “confirmed” is it really?
@@arbington I mean he says in the video that it is truly confirmed by a real life source, not just in-universe.
According to the Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia from 2008 yes. But it was the 2012 Book of Sith that showed later Sith claiming the title. I’d give more credence to the Book of Sith, even if it was meant as sort of a running joke by the author to show the hubris of the in-universe “authors.” Book of Sith is meant to be a journal from in-universe, the Encyclopedia is just a reference book. Aside from the fact that Book of Sith is more recent, reference books are often retconned or just plain inaccurate, and could more accurately be said to reflect what is canon and true at the time of their publication not so much what is canon and true forever, if other sources come along and contradict them. This is one of those situations as I see it, and the video is inaccurate and operating on old intel.
Sith’ari sounds like a bad Christmas party
I'm sure it's Rey Skywalker, she's the greatest Jedi, the greatest Sith, the greatest pilot. She doesn't even need training to beat up Luke Skywalker or out fly Han Solo in his own ship. Who else can out Sith a Sith but Rey Skywalker.
7:33 is Darth Malgus (or something like that, he was the big bad in the trailer for SWTOR), not Darth Bane.
My issue is that during the thousand years of the rule of two there must have been other dark side force welders to arise. My point is that in order to maintain the rule of two a Sith lord would have to fight both Jedi and those who have fallen into the dark side. Plus having to hunt down and assassinate other up and coming dark siders.
6:31 I never understand why so many people are confused about Bane's line of sith. Besides the fact Revan, Malak, and Traya-Nihilus-Sion weren't descendants, the Bane line ended with Sidious.
Maul, Tyrannus, and Vader were tools, Sidious rejected the rule of two and strove to live forever as the Lord of the Sith.
Darth Bane and Darth Malgus aren't exactly the same guy.... also, Revan. I think Revan fit both the Jedi chosen one and Sith'ari at the same time. He brought balance to the force by starting and ending the Jedi civil war, and directly leading to Vitiate's destruction, destroyed the Sith under Malak, but it was his teaching that made Darth Bane make the rule of two
Revan is important but bane achieved the prophecy
8:26 Best Star Wars pun I’ve ever heard
One huge fault in Darth Bane's philosophy of the Rule of Two is that it still doesn't fully prevent the lesser apprentice from murdering the greater master using external means such as poisoning, hiring contracted killers and private armies.
Darth Sidious resorted to getting his master drunk and killing him in his sleep, for example. Blatantly ignoring an honorable challenge to fight to the death, where you'd fully test your powers against your opponent, may the strongest Sith survive and reign as Master. It's likely that Sidious trajectory of power is still lesser than that his master would've had, had he not been killed in his sleep.
The rule of two also puts huge risks of extermination of the Sith order, as also shown when Sidious had not only murdered his master, but sent his apprentice off effectively to his death, leaving Sidious as the only Sith for a while. This same risk he took again later, when ordering the killing of Count Dooku. Had his plan failed at any time or had he accidentally died due to any unforeseen health complications or a stray assassination attempt, the Sith legacy would've stopped dead in its tracks, partly fault of Darth Bane.
The force doesn’t allow for that
@@gameislife3081 The force definitely allows for that.
Agreed
Palpatine also meets this, as he created a way of immortality with his power in a way he couldn't be stopped for both himself and an apprentice.

this taught me something of sith history that i didnt know. btw that wasnt bane you showed that was malgus. its easy to confuse the two. nonetheless awesome video. appreciate this sith Knowledge.
I recently listed to the Bane audio novels and while you listed the candidates of Sith saviors. I though to myself, Bane is unequivocally the Sith chosen one. Bane in every aspect embodies the Sith traditions and culture. Proven by growth, ability to recognize the weakness and betrayal the dark brotherhood disgraced the Sith in and of itself. Alway down to his master making excuses for B.O.D corruption for the sake of peace and pin pointer at that moment his master was a fool and no longer a master. Bane is the Sith chosen one.
That thumbnail art is dope
There's so many characters that fit the description for the Sith'ari that it's unclear who it actually is just like the Chosen One prophecy was unclear until those events transpired.
Unlike the Chosen One prophecy though, there's a lot of events that match to the Sith'ari prophecy that it could be either one of these candidates:
Darth Revan,
Darth Vader,
Darth Bane, or
Palpatine
So it really is up for debate if the Sith'ari appears whenever there's an imbalance in the force or that it's only one being like the Chosen One prophecy?
(I know I mentioned Darth Vader on my list, but for all we know the Sith'ari and the Chosen One could be the same person?)

Neither were really correct. I'd like to know if the Grey Force wielders had their own version of the Chosen One. I feel as though it would be much more accurate, as they chose the Force to guide them, rather than using the Force for their own will.
Also remember that, when under the ideals of a prophecy, you do what you think is right for the prophecy to come to fruition. This creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, rather than a true one. The Grey Force wielders wouldn't do what they thought would assist in the prophecy, they'd do what the Force requested of them at the time.
@Joshua Tucker 24ish actually
I think darth banes story is one of the most interesting stories of the sith. I also think it would make a great series or movie.
Wait, that is not how the Force works, is it? The Force isn’t a limited source of power, it is all about how well connected you are to it.
Lot of lore that their stuff that contradict each other. From what heard the Sith think the force is limited and believe that by limiting the amount of people that have it they can be more powerful because it concentrate the power of the force. That why they had the rule of two and why Sith targeted other Darkside user and other force groups.
It's more about how lesser talented, weaker Sith would gang up on a stronger Sith, kill them, then turn on each other, weakening the Sith overall.
James LeDuke
The average Sith (not even a Master/Lord) during TOR in general would absolutely dogshit most of the Sith during The New Sith Wars. Among their diverse and weakened ranks were a few alphas but even they'd be hard pressed if forced to deal with a well-trained Sith Warrior or Assassin from the ancient days. It was only when Darth Bane (not a Banite dick rider) brought back true quality into the Sith Order that they closed that gap in power that the ancients flexed on the battlefield and across worlds. Too bad he was hella paranoid about perfection and quality that there were only two dominant Sith in his Order's beliefs. It was a dark miracle that his Order survived with such few members in the shadows and with Jedi numbers growing...
