Sith King
Canon Linked from 24 articles
"Sith King" was a title traditionally held by certain rulers of the Sith species prior to the arrival of the Dark Jedi Exiles to Korriban at the end of the Hundred-Year Darkness in 6900 BBY.
Due to the kratocratic cultural mores of the Sith people, Sith Kings were generally among the most powerful Force users of their times and often engaged in protracted campaigns of conquest against their rivals. Many Sith Kings were protected by tuk'ata Sithspawn companions in life and death, buried in such sacred locations as the Valley of the Sleeping Kings and the Valley of Golg.
Among the most notable Sith Kings were Adas, Dathka Graush, and Hakagram Graush, the latter of whom was the last to have held the title prior to the formal establishment of the Sith Empire by the Exiles. The title fell out of widespread usage in the years that followed, replaced by the equivalent title Jen'ari meaning "Dark Lord of the Sith" in the Sith language.
