  • Description: The Church of the Dark Side is a galaxy spanning faith consisting of non Force-sensitive individuals among the galactic populace led by cabals of Force-sensitive members of the New Sith Order. Adherents of the religion perceive the Force as a river of power, dragging sentients along it with little choice of free will - Fate in its most potent form. They believe that only the Sith are capable of breaking this endless tide; beings empowered to change the very nature of fate itself using the strength of the Dark Side to free themselves of their shackles. This belief stems from the Acolytes of the Beyond, to preside and control the Force itself is to be worthy of worship and defy the Force’s will upon you. These Believers are fierce followers of the Sith religion and revere the power of the Sith Lords- seeking to spread the teachings of the Sith to all corners of the galactic stage in order to 'break the chains' of all those who heed the call of the Dark Side.

    • Cells have sprouted up throughout the galaxy to varying degrees, primarily in Sith-backed regimes or regions of space heavily steeped in Sith history. This does not exclude the Core Worlds or the Inner Rim where it is demonized by planetary governments and unaligned galactic powers. As a Sith Cult it is illegal in nature to gather and deal in the religious tenants of the Sith, therefore it is outlawed despite continued popularity in secret.
    • They are viewed as violent, sinister radicals and malevolent worshippers of the Sith to those aligned with the Ashla. Despite the fact that everyday individuals can become entranced by the seductive ideals of the cult and the enrichment of one's life through it's tenants.
    • To those affiliated with Bogan, the adherents of this religion are righteous, devout followers seeking genuine freedom from spiritual oppression from which only the Sith can provide under the reign of the Dark Lord of the Sith. Members can be anyone from a corporate CEO to a janitor on your local luxury corvette, they are everywhere and operate with the utmost discretion.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The origins of the Church of the Dark Side lie in the histories of the many constituents that merged together in it’s creation. A blending of minds brought together after the Fall of the One Sith Empire by Darth Solipsis Darth Solipsis . Elements from the Krath Revivalist Movement, the One Sith Deep Core remnants, and dozens of other pro-Sith loyalists gathered together under the watchful gaze of the Sith Masted who would one day claim the title of Dark Lord for his own.

After taking his place as the prophet of the Brotherhood of the Maw, the church followed the Dark Voice into the ranks of the Mawite Death Cult that infested the Unknown Regions. It was here they manipulated their way into a place of belonging and secured power for themselves until the unification of the church with the Greater Imperial Remnant of Derix Tirall Derix Tirall . It would be at this time that the Final Dawn would truly begin.

The secretive Neo-Imperial Final Dawn was created from the union of Sith cultist backed Neo-Imperials and the Greater Imperial Remnant led by High Regent Derix Tirall Derix Tirall , meeting with Darth Solipsis Darth Solipsis . Revealing himself in his true persona as a Sith Master, the two leaders came together with a grand plan, later bolstered with the addition of Imperial assets from the Deep Core under Sularen after a subsequent meeting with the Dark Voice himself.

Assembling all their assets under one roof, the fledgling military junta was hidden within the belly of the beast itself deep in the heart of MAW Space. It was here that dark cultists under the Dark Voice's thumb were brought forward along with Sith cultists who followed the Sith Master with the goal of restoring Sith rule over the Core Worlds and beyond. Accumulating material and wealth with each raid the Brotherhood enacted, the powerful sect grew exponentially with reach into Core World politics and corporate lobbyists within the Galactic Alliance. The Final Dawn amassed a powerful fleet and army with agents scattered throughout both Maw Space and beyond, pushing the Brotherhood's crusade through clandestine efforts so that a new order may rise from the ashes of their conquest.

With their steady growth and infiltration of the Core and other realms of the galaxy came influence. Each area the Brotherhood would wage war on, the Church of the Dark Side would touch with it’s unholy sermons spread by the hand of the Final Dawn. With the creation of the New Sith Order and claiming of the title of Dark Lord, their power reached it’s zenith. Now with the end of the Sith Civil War/ Schism, they are the premier Sith Cult in the galaxy. They ready themselves for the everlasting dominion of the Dark Side to come with the reign of the New Sith Order and conquests of the Brotherhood of the Maw.
