Sith alchemy

Sith alchemy, also known as the Force alchemy, was the alchemical array of magical dark side techniques of the Force that was used by the Sith. Darth Sidious used Sith alchemy when he attempted to enter the World Between Worlds. Sith scientists used Sith alchemy for Project Blackwing, an attempt to create immortality. The project ultimately resulted in a virus that resurrected the dead, and led to a widespread contamination. The reforged Kylo Ren's helmet was strengthened through the use of Sith alchemy.
