The Empire's Wrath, usually addressed as Lord Wrath, originally known as the Emperor's Wrath prior to the Sith Emperor's split with the Sith Empire and also known by the call sign Tempest, was a powerful Sith Lord who studied under Darth Baras, before earning their place as the Emperor's personal enforcer and executioner.
Securing a place as Baras's Sith apprentice on the planet Korriban, the Sith served as Baras's enforcer, hunting down the Jedi Padawan, Jaesa Willsaam and turning her to the dark side of the Force before taking her as their own student to spite her teacher Nomen Karr.
Ascending to the rank of Sith Lord, the Sith Warrior helped Baras set in motion the renewed Galactic War with the Galactic Republic and destroy Baras's own Sith Master Darth Vengean, allowing Baras to take Vengean's place on the Dark Council. However, Baras turned on his student and tried to kill the Sith on the planet Quesh. The warrior survived and was recruited by the Emperor's Hand, who anointed the Sith as the new Emperor's Wrath—the personal enforcer of the Sith Emperor—and tasked the Wrath with stopping Baras's plans to declare himself the Emperor's Voice and thus the de-facto leader of the Empire.
The Wrath systematically destroyed Baras's servants and machinations before slaying the man during a meeting of the Dark Council, and continued to serve as the Wrath during the ongoing conflict. When the Sith Emperor broke from the Empire he once ruled after they learned of his efforts to consume all life in the galaxy, the Wrath was rechristened the Empire's Wrath, but vanished around the same time as the Eternal Empire emerged from the Unknown Regions; despite the efforts of the Wrath's allies, the Sith Lord was still missing five years later.
