Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Imperial Sith Acolytes were elite Force sensitive soldiers deployed by the Galactic Empire in 1 BBY, founded by Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious.

Imperial Sith Acolytes were trained on Kamino as part of the Acolyte Program and frequently worked alongside the Saber Guards. They quickly gained a reputation for their aggressive training techniques, characterized by their resistance against most force techniques, as well as their ability to channel the Force for destructive purposes. It is unknown whether they were recruited from Force-sensitive Imperials, or whether they were stable clones of the late Galen Marek. It is possible that their number comprised members both Human and clone.

Many Acolytes were deployed to newly subjugated worlds such as Cato Neimoidia, others were stationed on Kamino. A few Acolytes participated in the assault on the Salvation, the flagship of the fledgling Rebel Alliance, during the Assault on Kamino. Starkiller, a renegade clone of Marek, killed many of the Sith Acolytes in his quest to find Rahm Kota and ultimately Juno Eclipse.
