A Sith Code
I am the haunter of the embracing dark.
I am the bringer of fear.
I am the scorner of peace and tranquility.
I ride the stormcloud and the night!
I seek to crush the commonplace.
I seek to strike terror in every heart.
I know no passion or pity.
I seek to be Sith, in all its manifestations…
Sith Code in German
Frieden gibt es nicht, nur Leidenschaft.
Durch Leidenschaft erlange ich Stärke.
Durch Stärke erlange ich Macht.
Durch die Macht erlange ich den Sieg.
Durch den Sieg zerbersten meine Ketten.
Die Macht wird mich befreien.
The Sith Scroll of Chaos
Let my words be written so that you of the future may know the true power of the Force.
Before the universe began there existed only chaos. When Chaos ruled, that what we now call the Force was not present. Chaos is neither good nor evil it just is. When the universe came into being it was through Chaos that it was created just as the Force. Chaos determined how the Force interacts with all that is part of the universe. In time the universe became stable and Chaos was lost, the matter in the universe became the planets and the stars. The Force settled into all the matter that existed, both seen and unseen. When life began it was unable to draw upon the Force which bound it to everything else in the universe. In time this changed, beings began to sense the Force and use it.
There came a time when beings learned to use the Force, they were called Jedi. Their philosophy was to use the Force to help those less fortunate, never to use the Force for their own benefit. By doing this, the Jedi only use one half of the Force, which limited their potential. If it were left to the Jedi, the knowledge of Chaos would never have been found. Soon, some of those Jedi became discontent with the Jedi way. They set out on a new path of discovery, beginning to experiment with the Force. These Jedi were the founders of the Sith. The word Sith means chaos, these Dark Jedi learned that they could use the Force to gain access to the fundamental force of creation called CHAOS.
The use of Chaos can be very dangerous, for its power is cumbersome. Any who attempt to use it must be willing to suffer the consequences of their actions, including their own death. To ever have any real success in using Chaos, the user must be skilled in the use of the Dark and Light Sides of the Force. One of the simplest uses of Chaos is the ability to shatter the soul of another being.
This is accomplished by focusing on the frequency at which the soul vibrates in the Force. At the most fundamental levels of matter, Chaos still exists in some small part. When the user has focused in on the soul’s frequency, the user must concentrate their anger on what they want to affect. This is the dangerous part, if the user does not have full concentration on the aspect of Chaos that they want to affect, the user may unintentionally use the Force to nudge the wrong aspect of Chaos. In doing so, any number of things could happen including the destruction of a solar system. If the user has focused in on the right aspect of Chaos, they may then nudge it with the Force, effectively changing the reality of the universe in that localized area. The soul is not actually destroyed for this is not possible, but it is shattered and knocked into another reality. Only a very skilled user of Chaos can determine the place the soul is banished to. Another use of Chaos is to destroy matter. Just as before, the user must focus on the frequency of the object they want to affect; the only difference is the aspect the user will affect with the Force. In this case, the user will affect the aspect of subatomic bonds, using the Force to feel their way through this intricate disorder to find this aspect.
With use, the user will be able to navigate their way through Chaos with relative ease. But you must be warned: the use of Chaos is different every time, a path used before may not be the same the next time you use it, for this is also the way of Chaos. As it is written, so it is.
Scroll of Incantation
Power is knowledge and knowledge is power, so let my knowledge be once again known to those of the Sith.
For many eons, the knowledge of the Sith has been sought by lesser beings. But only those I grant access to this scroll will know. An incantation can be a very powerful tool if used in the right hands. They can also be very dangerous if used improperly.
An incantation is very different from the Force that most know of. The Jedi fear incantations, for they are the essence of evil. To use an incantation, you must subjugate the spirit of another being. In doing so, you open yourself to the opportunity of being subjugated to the spirit you wish to use. Before you try this most potent of Dark Side magic, know this: when you are dead, these spirits you torment will seek you out to receive payment from you in one form or another. I would not even try this magic if you are neither a Dark Lord nor a great Sith magician, for in death you will not be able to defend yourself from these spirits.
To use an incantation, the user must, through the Force, focus their mind on the entire sum and substance of the Force. The user must feel all the souls and spirits in the universe, both living and dead. The words to an incantation do not matter for they differ depending on the spirit summoned. The words are only used to entice a spirit or force it to do what you command of it. In summoning a spirit, you must read its soul as best you can, for this is what determines the words of an incantation. What you are in effect doing is disguising yourself from the spirit and simultaneously letting it believe you are that which it fears most. By doing this, the spirit should do what you ask of it. Let it be known that this does not always work; some spirits are smarter than others. If you do not read the spirit correctly through the Force, and say the wrong incantation, you may be forced to endure the spirit taking control of your body. If everything has worked right, you may use the spirit to do almost anything—from guarding a sacred area, to even enslaving other spirits to do your bidding.
Incantations can also be used to enslave spirits to objects such as amulets. This can be very useful to those apprentices you may have who are not as strong in the Dark Side as yourself. This also ensures that your apprentices do not become as skilled as yourself and threaten your power. To enslave a spirit to an amulet, you must focus great amounts of hatred through the amulet, then use the incantations that apply to the spirit or spirits you wish to enslave. You must then use the Force to draw the spirit into the amulet. When this is done, you must use an aspect of Chaos to change the nature of the amulet to trap the spirit. Be very careful, as always, when using Chaos, for you could also trap yourself in the amulet.
This knowledge I decree shall only be seen by those I have chosen, both in the future and the past. Those who violate me shall suffer the wrath of all the Dark Lords, both present and past, for eternity.
So I have said and so it shall be.
The Scroll of Sith Destiny
As once was be again. The Sith shall return as it always has, this is our destiny.
The Sith began with the first Jedi. Unknown to them, there was always those that sought the knowledge for self-gain. It is our nature to use our power for our own benefit. The pathetic Jedi deny this and seek to destroy us, the Sith, for our knowledge. There have been many times in the past when the Jedi have eradicated most of us, but there only needs to be one of us left to pass on the knowledge we have gained.
The first great rise of the Sith came about with the Jedi Ninurta Istaran. He was the first to discover Chaos. He turned away from his master’s teaching and went forth to learn the Force on his own. He journeyed to a world whose name has been lost in time. There, he spent many years learning the Dark Side of the Force and focusing his anger. The first great find was Chaos, with which he was able to make all bow before him. This knowledge helped him become the first Dark Lord of the Sith; it is to him we of the Sith owe a debt of gratitude. With the foundation of the Sith, he set forth to create an Empire to consume the entire galaxy in darkness. Istaran succeeded in capturing a quarter of the galaxy. At this time, the Jedi Council met to discuss destroying him and his followers. A war ensued for ten years, and in the end, the Jedi won due to their large numbers. Istaran consolidated his forces and found a world to create a sanctuary for himself. There he finished out his years and passed down his knowledge. Unknown to the Jedi, much was learned of the Dark Side during this time because of the war.
The next great rise of the Sith came about not because of a Dark Lord but because of his first apprentice, Naga Sadow. Unknown to his Dark Lord, Sadow set out to create his own Empire. As his power grew, so did his Empire. Soon his Dark Lord found out that Sadow had deceived him and was planning to overthrow him. Sadow was forced to flee from his Dark Lord and go into hiding. The Republic sent a fleet to find and eradicate him because he had taken many of their worlds. Sadow was forced to give up his small Empire and hide in the Outer Rim. On his way to the Outer Rim, a Republic fleet found him; he was then forced to destroy a star system to escape. The world he found to hide on was called Yavin Four. There, he set up a kingdom and ruled over the Massassi people. For a thousand years, the Sith did not become a major factor in the galaxy. Not until the time of Exar Kun.
Exar was a very great student of the Force, but he felt there was more to learn. He began to study the Dark Side, but his master forbade him from studying it any more when he found out. Exar did not listen to his master and set off to learn the Dark Side. He went to a world called Onderon in search of Dark Side knowledge. With the help of some Darksiders, he found the tomb of Freedon Nadd. When he entered the tomb, Nadd’s spirit awaited him. Nadd told him to take the scroll from under his now dead body. The scrolls told Kun of the last resting place of the Dark Lords. The world was Korriban. Exar journeyed to Korriban to meet Freedon Nadd. There, Nadd led him to the Temple of the Dark Lords, where Exar was forced to battle enslaved spirits. To escape, Nadd told him to enter the temple. In the temple, Nadd shattered the bones of Kun and forced him to submit to the Dark Side. After many agonizing hours, Exar gave in and agreed to accept the Dark Side. In turn, Nadd healed him and showed him all that was in the temple. Exar then went to Yavin Four to learn more of the Dark Side. On Yavin, the Massassi captured him and threw him into a pit with a beast. Nadd told him to focus his anger through the amulet the Massassi possessed. For the first time, Exar knew the full potential of the Dark Side. He destroyed the beast and then turned on Nadd and destroyed him. The Massassi became his slaves and helped him leave Yavin Four. Kun then sought out the other students of Freedon Nadd. His search brought him to the Empress Teta system. There, he found the other students. In a battle with Ulic Qel-Droma, the Dark lord of the Sith Istaran granted him the title of Dark Lord of the Sith. Ulic became his First Apprentice. For many years, the two brought darkness to the Republic worlds. But because of the weak nature of Ulic, he betrayed Exar to the Jedi, and they found Exar and turned him to stone. The rise of Exar was not complete, for some time from now he shall rise from his stone prison to retake the galaxy. The future is now what I see. I see the rise of a great Sith magician; he shall be called Emperor, and he will have a servant who calls himself Dark Lord of the Sith. But this is not so, for it was not granted to the one called Vader. This one called Emperor shall rule all the galaxy for a time, but soon his servant will betray him. But his story is not over. Next, I see the rise of a new order of Sith, different from those of the past. It is to you I speak.
The Scroll of Sith Magic
Magic is a thunder heard across the galaxy. Its power reverberates through the foundation of all existence. It echoes the lightning of creation itself. In its voice is the promise of life and death. It is a power to be coveted and feared. The Dark Lord Istaran tells us magic draws its power from the original creation of the Universe. In the beginning, The One stretched out his hand amid the Chaos. The motion of his hand ordered chaos into infinite possibilities of creation. This motion was the first Order out of Chaos. It is called the Wave Prime or more often simply the Force.
Istaran saw in the Force the creation of the ethereal and the physical, and seeing it made it so. In the creation of the spiritual and the physical, the Force split into two sets of waves, each infinite in their possibilities. Each of the two waves were the same but different, one of the Light and one of the Dark. The two waves curved away from each other and back again. The waves crossed, and where they crossed, time and space were created. Thus Reality was woven from the two Forces.
With delight and wonder, Istaran looked again upon both waves. In the ethereal or Light side he saw the creation of life and mind; in the physical or Dark side he saw death and power…..and seeing it made it so. Again, in its creation, the waves of the ethereal and physical possibilities of new creation. Istaran saw these new possibilities as they were woven. In the intersection of the waves, Life, Death, Power and Mind were born. The longer Istaran looked upon the weave of Reality, the more possibilities split into being. Stars, worlds, life–in short, all creation—was thus woven from infinite possibilities. So it was in the time of Istaran and so it is today.
Reality is simply the manifestation of intersecting waves of possibility. It is a vast and almost incomprehensible weave of solid physics in the midst of a myriad of infinite potentials. Science, technology and biology all use the woven rope of reality.
Magic, on the other hand, functions by reweaving the fabric of reality. A Sith Magician begins by concentrating on the wave of probabilities rather than on reality itself. Through the Force, their learning and their power, they look out upon the myriad waves of infinite possibilities to find that part of the wave where their desired reality would be true. Then the Sith Magician creates a harmonic wave of possibility to bend the existing wave so that what was once only possible becomes part of what is true. In this way, the Sith Magician weaves their desire into existence.
For example, a Sith Magician stands on the field of battle against a great Jedi Knight. The Magician, wearing only his robes, is at the mercy of the armed and more powerful Jedi Knight. This is reality and, if left alone, the Jedi Knight will most likely slay the Sith Magician without much resistance. However, the Sith Magician knows from his study where the possibility (desired effect) of a protective shield exists on one of countless waves of possibility. The Sith Magician sets up a harmonic wave of possibility through his motions, thoughts, words, signs and other aids. This magic alters the possibility wave so that what was once the possibility of a magical shield is woven into reality. The new reality includes the desired effect and so the magical shield now guards the Sith Magician.
Although, to the outside observer, the protective field seems to spring up around the Sith Magician from nothing, it would be more accurate to say the possibility of such a field has been called into reality from infinite possibilities of the Chaos.
To use magic, one must be able to find and weave the appropriate portion of Chaos in some small degree. This is far from omnipotence or omniscience, even among those who see a vast section of the Force. Being able to function in the discipline of magic does not explain why magic exists or its origins. It does not lead one to the reason for being. Just as knowing a rock will fall when dropped does not tell us why gravity exists or what intelligence brought such order out of chaos, so it is, too, with magic.
Only the Jedi and we of the Sith understand magic. But we of the Sith are the only ones to understand it to the fullest. We have seen magic from the center of Chaos; we mastered the art in the most elemental and powerful form. No others have seen as much of the Force as we have.
The Scroll of Sith Masteries
The greatest force of all is the Sith Rune magic, which combines the waves of Life, Power, Mind and Death into a comprehension of the central weave of reality and a clear picture of the infinite possibilities of Chaos. Those who have mastered Sith Rune magic are said to have reached the Ninth Mastery or better known as a Sith Magician. The knowledge and potency of the Sith Rune Disciplines are all tied directly to the Rune siglas which are used in the casting of such spells. With the end of the Great Sith War, only we of the Sith and the Krath (if they still exist) have the knowledge of Sith Rune Magics. The unified magic of Sith Rune Magic is then divided into the four Lesser Houses of Firmament (Air), Sun (Fire), Spring (Water) and Dark (Earth). Together they are known as the Sith Masteries. The Sith Masteries represent the Eighth Mastery and are second only to Sith Rune Magic in power. Each of the Sith Masteries is further divided equally into Spiritual and Physical Masteries. The Spiritual masteries tend toward mental and emotional manipulation of the world about the magician. The Physical Masteries tend to use and make use of physical objects in the world about the Sith magician.
Both the Spiritual and Physical Masteries are further divided into the Greater and Lesser Disciplines in each House. Those of the Greater Disciplines are known as Adept Advocate while those of the Lesser House are known as Adept Servitor. Adept Advocate includes Fifth through Seventh Masteries while Adept Servitor is made up of First through Fourth Masteries. The terms “greater” and “lesser” are somewhat deceptive in that the Lesser Disciplines are the broadest based and most commonly used of the magics. The Greater Disciplines, while more powerful, also tend to be more specialized.
After the Great Sith War, the Krath vanished and we of the Sith jealously guarded Sith Rune Magic from anyone else learning it. This brought about the loss of any magic greater than the
