I can't remember the full lore behind lightsaber construction but essentially they need a special crystal called a kyber crystal to make it function. The colour of the crystal then also affects the colour of the lightsaber. Damaged crystals also affect the "blade" itself, making it unstable. Kyber crystals are integral parts of building a lightsaber.

I am a longtime player of the game. The game is fully voice cast, including your player character. The game is free to play (base game through the first two expansions, Rise of the Hutt Cartel and The Shadow of Revan), but if you subscribe for just one month the rest of the expansions to the date of your subscription are available, even if you no longer subscribe. The subscription allows access to endgame content like Operations (8 and 16 player content) and PvP. Personally, I love the game and it has a pretty hardcore base of players. Each class in the base game has its own storyline, with some overlap of NPCs. The first three cinematics introduced the base game and showed off most of the playable classes. Many of the characters either are major NPCs in the game or Companions to use in adventures. 1) Return: (38 years before the start of the game) Republic classes & characters: Master Kao Cen Darach (Jedi Knight class) - Zabrak male; Satele Shan (Jedi Consular class) - human female; Niko Okarr (Smuggler class) - human male; Jace Malcolm (Republic Trooper class) - human male. Satele is Grandmaster of the Jedi Order in the Game, Niko becomes a companion to you, and Jace eventually becomes Supreme Commander of Republic Forces. Imperial classes & characters: Darth Vindican (Sith Inquisitor) - Pure Blood Sith; Malgus (Sith Warrior) - human male. In the game, Malgus is a boogeyman who keeps turning up, even when you think you killed him. 2) Hope: (24 years before the start of the game) Jace Malcolm, Satele Shan, and Malgus (now Darth Malgus) return on Alderaan...the planet destroyed in Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope by the Death Star. 3) Deceived: (14 years before the start of the game) Darth Malgus returns for the Sacking of Coruscant and the destruction of the Jedi Temple. He fights Jedi Master Ven Zallow (Jedi Knight class). We are introduced to one more class, we also saw briefly in Hope, the Bounty Hunter class in the form of Mandalorian Shae Vizla, the redhead human woman on the upper level of the temple. The only class left out of all these trailers is the Imperial Agent class. Shae Vizla starts as an NPC but becomes a companion in your adventures. Soon the Treaty of Coruscant happens, and a 10-year Cold War between the Republic and the Sith Empire continues, ending during the game storylines of the base game, and war commences again. Throughout the start of the game and the first expansions 17 years pass. Meanwhile...the back story for the two largest expansions in SWTOR, is the next two cinematics: 4) Sacrifice: (Introducing the Eternal Empire of Zakuul for the expansionof Knights of the Fallen Empire (KotFE)) Arcann (in white) and Thexan (in black) are twin sons of Emperor Valkorian, and they lead the fight against both the Republic and the Empire with the Eternal Fleet, almost breaking them. Arcann is an NPC, withthea possibility of becoming a companion, depending on how you play the expansion, 5) Betrayed: (expanding the EternaEmpirere storyline for the expansion Knights of the Eternal Throne (KOTET)) Senya Terall tries to rescue her daughter, Vaylin from her father, Emperor Valkorian's grasp...Senya is also the mother of Arcann and Thexan. Senya is a companion in the expansion KotF, and might stay one in KOTET. Vaylin is an NPC. 6) Disorder (Recent Legacy of the Sith expansion in 2022) This is the backstory for Sa'har Kateen, a Jedi Padawan Twi'lek, her master Denholm Orr, and Sa'har's brother, Ri'ken...who has become a Twi'lek Mandalorian in the game. Plus, the eternal boogeyman of SWTOR returns AGAIN...Darth Malgus. Sa'har and Ri'ken are both NPCs in the expansion.

for 15:25 the man (Emperor Valkorion) is the leader of a 3rd faction the Eternal Empire which is fighting against both the Republic and the Sith Empire, he is also the father of the two brothers Thexan in black and Arcann in white, you can see Arcann resenting his father for the lack of love and affection as well as general concern for their wellbeing, they grow up and go to war and still Valkorion does not acknowledge them which doesn't sit well in Arcann until finally after losing an arm and half his face they win and present both flags and lightsabers of the leaders of their enemies, what does Valkorion do? he turns around which finally breaks Arcann and he falls to the dark side (orange eye), ho goes for the kill on the man who has wronged him his whole life but Thexan stops him but Arcann is still drawing on the darkside and kills his brother, when he regains his senses he knows that he's in trouble but finally Valkorion is looking at him and acknowledged as his son, why would Valkorion do this? we don't really know but we can guess such as Valkorion looking down on their botherly bond and wanting a child that would stand on their own two feet or he was waiting for one of his sons to impress him and killing the other was sufficient? i dunno.

lol OFC we know why he did all that.

And the only way to prevail was to finally unlock their dark side. Up until that point they were in the Balance. The whole Zakuul society is based on the Balance of the Force. But then he met us, the Outlander, and we outclass everybody in the galaxy. So he shifted his aim towards us.

The game is essentially an MMORPG that has multiple story lines depending on what class you pick. There is a companion system as well as a speech selection system where you can build relationships. Very good game if you want to get into the lore, but I believe the whole game is legends for the most part.

The Jedi Order and the Sith Order have different doctrines of force users. One focuses on light force, and the other on dark force. Different ways to interact with the world, and opposites of each other. Much like Democracy/Republic versus Dictatorship/Tyranny. Good versus Evil.

It's actually not about Good and Evil. It's about how one attains connection with The Force. The Jedi connect to the Force through calmness and serenity. "There is no emotion, there is peace." The Sith connect to the Force through strong emotion. "Peace is a lie. There is only Passion." The problem is, good emotions are fleeting, and hard to hold onto. It's difficult to hold onto joy constantly. Or mirth. It's easy to hold onto hatred, and anger. It's easy to instill Fear in others. That's why so many Sith turn to evil. It's simply far easier.

It's not good vs evil. The codes, when you break them down, are at conflict cause of the Jedi code. The Jedi code is Peace above EVERYTHING else. And yes, that means even above JUSTICE and GOOD. The Sith in control, for 100k years, without war or battle and everything being peaceful? The Jedi would LET THAT HAPPEN and be HAPPY about it. The Jedi Code, at it's core, is Evil. Specifically it is Neutral Evil under the bindings of Lawful Evil. They cut off your emotions, remove your freedoms, and force you to be Negotiators of Peace, and will do ANYTHING for Peace above all else. A nation ENSLAVED by evil Dictators? That is MORE peaceful than a Rebellion fighting for their freedoms and rights, as that is WAR and not Peaceful. That is what, Objectively, makes the Jedi Evil. Cause they will oppose ANYTHING that breaks the Peace. Meaning yes, they will fight REBELS trying to free themselves from Tyrants. Cause those Rebels are breaking the Peace. The Sith Code itself, is neither good nor evil, tho it is mostly used by evil and people claim it is evil. But at the end of the day, the Sith Code is about Personal Growth, and not being Chained Down by anyone or anything. Example. You see cops in front of you, they are about to murder someone illegally in cold blood. Do you stop the police? If you say no, you are following the Jedi Code, not breaking the law and rebelling, and instead keeping the Peace. However if you chose yes, and stop the police, you are Following the Sith Code, cause you don't allow yourself to be chained by Rules, Laws, and Society to prevent you from doing what YOU personally want to do. And while yes, "doing what YOU personally want to do" is used by criminals, aka the Sith we know in game and lore, to do evil. It would ALSO be Batman, Superman, and other Super Heroes who break the law to do their own Justice and Good, and other situations like that. It's Anikan, in the Clone Wars Cartoon for example, is HEAVILY Sith Code base. Cause he defies the Jedi Council, and the Republic to SAVE and HELP people, even against the ORDERS and LAWS of the Republic and Jedi Council. That is not him being a Jedi, that is him being a SITH, to break free from the chains binding him and preventing him from taking action. So in the end, Jedi Code is 100% pure evil. Which is why even in the Prequel movies and Clone Wars Cartoon, there is so much horror, crime, and evil going on with the Jedi doing NOTHING to stop any of it. Meanwhile the Sith Code is all about Freedom. However it's mostly abused by criminals who use it to have the 'Freedom' to commit crimes, and rarely by people to commit good. Except Anikan. Anikan in the Clone Wars cartoon is literally the only good Sith Master we see anywhere in all of Star Wars Media.

​​@@WhiteWolfDarkpaw one little correction, it's not really about calmenss or emotion, but force of will. While the jedi let themselfs be guided by the Force, the sith will themselfs aginst it. Jedi gain strengh by communing with the Force, in a sense becomimg tools for "destiny" and giving up their desires for the greater good, the sith gain strenght with sheer force of will, and the best way to steel yourself is by giving in into emotions. You could say a fat person that trains to become fit, if driven by shame, self-hate, fear of judgement and all that similar stuff, is pretty much doing what the sith do. The reason why so many sith are evil is due to the fact that the ancient sith's (species) culture was brutal and cruel to begin with. Basically all sith are sigmas.

As for lightsaber construction, the "Stone" (Kyber Crystal) used in the construction of the lightsaber is specifically sought out by the person that creates it. It varies between Canon, and Legends (Featured in these cinematics) In Legends: The crystals will emit a specific colour of blade when used to focus a lightsaber. Jedi lightsabers are typically Blue, Green, Yellow or Purple. but there's a LOT Of different colour crystals. off the top of my head Orange, Bronze, Silver, White, Viridian, Cyan. Red Crystals used by the sith, are typically synthetic, it is possible for a red crystal to be naturally occuring, but typically they are created by the sith. (In Legends, Darth Vader was said to use a rare naturally occuring Red crystal in his lightsaber) In Canon (The mainline Saga / Disney movies and shows + The Clone Wars) Jedi younglings will be taken to the Planet Illum, to participate in "The Gathering" where they go on a quest to find their crystal, the specific crystal that is bonded to them. Crystal colour is based on the personality of the Jedi that it belongs to. Blue and Green are the typical colours, but Yellow and (In Mace Windu's case) Purple can occur. How a red crystal is made, is when a dark sider "Bleeds" the crystal. by drowning the crystal in the dark side, usually through their anger, pain and rage. Sith will either, corrupt their previous Jedi crystal, or take a crystal from a Jedi they kill If a Bled crystal is healed, it will turn white

1:08 The only real complaint I ever had with the Old Republic is these Republic Troopers and how they were designed to evoke Clone Troopers yet predate them by around 3900 years. Knights of The Old Republic along with the Old Republic comics visually looked more unique in terms of it's designs. Naturally an MMO has to reply on Nostalgia and other media far more so they can sell outfits, skins, and weapons so you do find alot of stuff that looks like re-worked versions of stuff from the Prequals and Original trilogy. But beyond that the Art Direction of The Old Republic MMO is pretty good even if I prefer Knights of the Old Republic. You can find Knights of the Old Republic designs in the game as its only set around 300 years before The Old Republic, Can even explore a planet from Knights as well so all that's really cool. The MMO also just has some pretty generic MMO designs that weaken the overall art direction but like I said for the most part it's good.

@@aqueousvessel8 That's all true but in terms of why they were designed that why it was really just to pull in anyone who liked the Prequals and Clone Troopers in general. So fans of the prequals would look at the Trooper class and think "Hey that looks like a Clone Trooper, cool". Old Republic is filled with these kind of designs that crash in on the hype surrounding the prequal era and so there's alot of similar designs. Compare this to something like the Tales of the Jedi comics where it really does look like a time period set thousands of years before the films. While The Old Republic hits you with alot of whiplash designs that make you go "Eh this looks cool but doesn't really fit the era" Knights of the Old Republic felt like a series set before the films visually as well. And even The High Republic reflects this much better as well. I love the Old Republic but wish it had a differant art direction that reflected more of being set thousands of years before the movies. The Republic Troopers are cool but visually they would fit better as New Republic troopers inspired by Clone Troopers of the Republic with a splash of Rebellion.

Just to add to this: Valyn was always a bit unstable. Senya and Valkorian decided to suppress her powers out of fear she would be unable to control them and cause problems. After that training mishap, Senya reluctantly agreed to have Valkorian condition her so that they would have a way to stop her if she got out of hand. So, a bunch of fanatics led by a mad scientist (supervised by Valkorian) did a lot of things to Valyn, driving her from a little unstable to fully insane, but with the benefit of having an "off switch", turning her into a mad dog on a leash.

Yep, the lightsabers power source is indeed a living crystal called Kyber. That crystal is literally alive and in synched with the force itself, and thats why the krystal must choose the force user, not the opposite. Every color has a meaning: --- Blue: For the jedis who choosen to focus on the lightsaber skills --- Green: For the jedis who choosen to discover the new paths of the force --- Yellow: For the jedis who choosen the knowledge of the world. --- Purple: It means the user is a jedi that can access to some knowledge and skills of the dark side without feeling atracted by the darkness. (curious fact, this color is rejected both for jedis and sith, for the jedis means the posibility of fall into the dark side, and for the siths means that the user refuses to embrace the darkness) There are other colors for special cases: --- Red: Thoose are powered by normal kybers that were corrupted by a lord of sith (aligned with the dark side of the force), the ritual is literally know as "Kyber Bleeding". --- Orange: For thoose who choosen the dark side but without embracing it completely --- Black: Is proabably a modified kyber that belongs to the only dark saber on the lore (it was created by the only mandalorian who became a jedi and it gives the right to lead mandalorians). --- White: Also known as "phantom blades" is exactly the opposite to the Red saber. Thoose are purified kybers that were synchronyzed with the light side of the force completely and the ritual is exactly the opposite than the "kyber bleeding"

Jedi knight 2. Sith Warrior 3. Smuggler 4. Bounty hunter 5. Jedi Consular 6. Sith Inquisitor 7. Republic Trooper 8. Imperial Agent I personally recommend playing all of the classes since they all have their own unique stories and characters connected to them.

The man/father is also known as darth vitiate. Pretty much the strongest single sith to ever live. When he was a kid he had taken over his home planet after killing both his parents (father instantly, torturing/experimenting with his powers on the mother for many months). He was so twisted and strong in fact, the head honcho of the sith at the time formally recognized him and personally advised him in secret on how to build his power, both in the force/ army wise. He was essentially immortal as well. He lured a big portion of the sith to a planet and conducted a ritual that drained every living being's life energy into him. Which more or less turned him into energy that can inhabit bodies and thus not really die. Vitiate had no interest in relationships/family. So its really something that the mother in these cutscenes caught his attention enough for him to ignore that. What did stay is his lack of desire for children because he figured they'd be the only thing that would be able to contest with him. So he never connected with any of his children and instead used the twins as pawns in his war, either they would accomplish his goals or they would die, win-win for him. The daughter however, was strong enough to make him worry. Instead of using her he tried to sever her connection to the force, when that didn't work he put in mental blocks that prevented her from going against him. She doesn't run to her mother because she developed an intense hatred for her from all the torture/mental conditioning she was put through, feeling like her mom abandoned her to that fate. In the end it was indeed family that lead to his downfall, though hes not technically dead just contained.

The stone, which is a kyber crystal, does NOT power the lightsaber. The energy put into the crystal helps to form the blade as well as a focusing crystal. Lightsabers contain a rechargeable power cell which is in the bottom 3rd of the hilt, though some power cells are bigger, and some smaller. Several factors involved in the design of an individual saber.

The Old Republic in general is set around three thousand years before even the first movie. The three first trailers are in chronological order, showing the return of the Sith Empire and ending with the Sacking of Coruscant. The Empire won, the Republic was forced into an uneasy peace treaty. The game takes place during the Galactic Cold War that follows, these are just setting up the story so far. The two after take place after the Cold War kicks off and a few other things happen. The older man is the Eternal Emperor, and he's essentially Emperor Palpatine but immortal and so much more powerful. Even the mighty sith empire was a failure in his eyes, so he stopped being their emperor, started a new empire, and totally crushed the Republic and the Sith Empire with the power of his new Eternal Empire. If you've ever seen KOTOR (Knights of the Old Republic) or KOTOR II, they're set a few hundred years before SWTOR and SWTOR is essentially the MMO successor. Some people like it, some hate it, it's definitely not even close to looking like the trailers but that's just how advertising works. I love the lore of the Old Republic because unlike the movies, this is the HEIGHT of both the Jedi and the Sith. The Republic and Empire battling at their absolute strongest, with the greatest on both sides. If you do ever try it out, Sith Inquisitor and Imperial Agent have the best storylines by far, and the Jedi Knight is a great one if you don't like playing the bad guys. TL;DR - Giving some general lore, fun game but don't expect it to look this good. Yes I'm a nerd.

Jedi got their lightsaber crystals (kyber crystals) from the crystal caves of the ice planet of Ilum. They go there as younglings and undergo a trial where their respective kyber crystals choose them through the force. But sith could only get sabers by defeating a Jedi and taking their kyber crystal.

These trailers are so ridiculously good, far better than anything we got from Disney w/ the sequel trilogy. For a bit of context behind the lore, the Sith have ranks just like the Jedi do, at least the old Sith did as there were hundreds of them instead of just 2 like in the movies. Acolytes were apprentices, akin to Padawans, and Sith Lords were the equivalent of Jedi Masters. Malgus, the Sith we see in the first 3 trailers, was an apprentice of Vindican (the guy who was injured in the 1st trailer), and as Sith principles dictate that apprentices can only become lords once their master has died, Malgus took the opportunity to murder his master, to inherit his title. And also, yes, because as he stated, his master had failed to kill the Jedi. Since Malgus had to do it himself, he believed he'd surpassed his master and therefore had no more need of him. The soldiers who fought in the second trailer were known as Havoc squad, and they were specially trained to fight force users, and their leader (the guy with the grenade) was especially tough even among the other soldiers. The female Jedi who fought w/ them was named Satele Shan, and she's a descendent of two legendary Jedi, Revan & Bastilla Shan, and she eventually becomes a grand master of the Jedi herself, holding the same title as Yoda & Mace Windu many years after her. The Jedi who fought the two Sith users in the first trailer was her master, Kao Cen Darach, and he was a Jedi Battlemaster (meaning he mastered just about all 7 forms of lightsaber combat to some degree), hence why he was able to do so well in the 2v1.

So Star Wars: The Old Republic is your standard MMO fare, gameplay wise, but where it shines are the stories. You can play on the Republic side or Sith Empire side. Each faction has 4 stories, for a total of 8. For the Republic side, you have the Jedi Knight, Jedi Consular, Smuggler, and Trooper and for Sith you have the Sith Warrior, Sith Inquisitor, Bounty Hunter, and Imperial Agent; each has their own unique story (up until the expansions where it becomes more linear) to play through. Classes have changed a lot, where you can now play with any combat style (exceptions being that the Force user classes cannot use styles based around using blasters and vice versa), so you could have a Jedi throwing around lightning like a Sith if you wanted. Overall, imo, the game ranges from good to great with weak areas, but the stories are well worth going through

So, in the 4th and 5th trailers there are the twins and the young girl and the Dad and the woman who is raising the girl, right? So, the entry about that lady on Wookiepedia sort of gives an explanation of what is happening in those trailers: "Senya Tirall was a Human female Force-sensitive native of Zakuul, the capital of the Eternal Empire. Joining the ranks of the Knights of Zakuul, she rose to become a member of the personal guard of the Immortal Emperor Valkorion and caught his interest. The two began a romantic affair, and Tirall bore three children-the twins Thexan and Arcann, and her daughter Vaylin. Senya grew troubled by Valkorion's indifference to his children, which culminated with him locking Vaylin on Nathema and subjecting her to mental conditioning. Senya attempted to rescue her daughter to no avail and later attempted to run away with the children, but they refused to leave, calling her weak. Senya abandoned her family, but not the Empire, taking assignments on the fringes of Zakuulan space. Seeing her family only in public broadcasts, she eventually learned that Thexan was killed during the raids into the Core Worlds. Not long afterwards, Valkorion was assassinated and Arcann claimed his Eternal Throne, launching Eternal Empire conquest of the galaxy and enacting a Scion massacre, which was the last straw for Senya and caused her to oppose the tyranny of her children." So, just for clarity, Valkorian is the Dad who doesn't give two shits until Arcann (the twin in white with all the injuries) kills his brother Thexan (the twin wearing black.) Valkorian doesn't give two shits about his kids, and he believes they can't co-exist. The strong has to kill the weak, which is why he doesn't acknowlege Arcann until he kills Thexan. Senya (the mom) was trying to hide Vaylin's abilities from Valkorian, which is why she kept stopping Vaylin from using the Force, because by now Senya has realized that Valkorian is a dick. Vaylin turns on Senya because Valkorian not only encouraged her to use her power, but used ancient Force rituals to enhance it. The game takes place about 300 years before the events of the canonical Star Wars that we know from the movies, and several hundred years after the Republic defeats the Sith Empire. The events shown in the first three trailers take place at least 20 years before the events in game, and are part of the backstory of what's happening and what you're doing as the player. For example, the young Jedi woman who stopped the light saber with her hands is now the leader of the Jedi Order and much older when you deal with her as an NPC in game. The Sith apprentice dude that kept tanking all that damage is also much older, and is now a very high ranking Sith lord in the newly reconstituted Sith Empire.

The Rule of Two happened about 2650 years after this. Never before had there been just two Sith at any given time. It was always an Empire full of Force sensitives. Well, since the days of Ajunta Pall anyway. This was back in 7000 BBY, when the Dark Jedi first arrived on Korriban and mixed with the Sith race. At least during Tenebrae's reign, Darth was a higher rank than Sith Lord and the highest rank was Dark Lord of the Sith. During Episode 1-6 all three of these are pretty much the same thing, which makes it a bit confusing. Tenebrae, of course, declared himself Emperor instead of Dark Lord of the Sith but it was essentially the same thing. He was the goat.

Also the Sith combatants are just Sith Warriors, Malgus and his master (first trailer) are/were Sith Lords. just for clarification if you ever see this... also Red lightsabers arent natural, the Sith bleed them to turn them red, they are originally blue, green, yellow, or whatever, very rarely are they natural red, if ever.

It lets you make choices based on dialogue and your character’s actions. If you like story games where you can make choices then you might like it. You should try to play the Knights of the Old Republic games first though, as they come before Old Republic.

The game is free upto level 50, for access to the expansions and upto level 80 you gotta buy the subscription at least once, doing so unlocks all that is available at the time of the subscription period for your account permanently, but any new expansions that releases while you are NOT subscribed is NOT unlocked and you need to subscribe again to unlock them. I'd say it's worth it for a 3 month subscription atm, unlocks a large amount of story content for you. There are 8 classes, each with its own unique class story for the "main game" (the F2P content), but the story becomes more centralized afterward. You can comfortably play up to level 50 before deciding if you want to put the money in for a subscription for the additional content, though like most MMO's, EXP gains are slower for F2P players.

In the first trailer, the reason malgus killed his master was due to the sith belief that strength is everything and you should away strive to be more powerful, so sith apprentices betraying their master to be come the master was pretty common, especially during the time period the trailers take place

There is a 7-hour long swtor video by Gamer’s Little Playground on KZfaq that sums up the story of the 4th and 5th trailers you watched with the twins and Vailin. Especially the first couple of hours of it are REALLY good if you want to watch the play through. The 7hour long video is not the full episode though, he continues it in another 3hr long video I think.

I have been playing The Star Wars Old Republic since the beta testing, and this game is absolutely amazing. Yes, it takes a bit to get use to where everything is. But in my opinion it is worth it!

Funny thing about the last video is that Darth Malgus came to the same conclusion about how the Sith and Jedi maintain control by withholding knowledge of the force that Luke Skywalker came too in the sequel trilogy.

The Cinematic Trailers are amazing, The game is standard MMORPG, it's good for what it is. These games by their nature require a fair level of patience. You kind of got to be in it to love it.

I've played the game consistently since it was released and, even though the gameplay is not nearly as polished as the cinematics(as with most games), it's still a TON of fun to play! Every single mission and dialogue is done in an in-game cinematic-style dialogue with full choices of how you respond. And there are two factions, Republic and Empire. And even within that, you can STILL choose whether you want your character to be more Light Side or Dark Side via your dialogue choices.

Not to mention 8 different class stories, even the same class can be experienced in countless of different ways. In the expas it gets more streamlined ofc but the beginning of KotFE is arguably the best segment of the entire game.

Regarding your question about what to call the force users with red lightsabers, you have it correct at "Sith". The term "Sith" originally was a race of people from a specific planet that used the Force with a certain philosophy that naturally led to them using the Dark Side. Typically Sith with higher rank will have titles such as "Lord' or "Darth" (aka Darth Vader).

7:50 im not too sure on what your trying to say here but let me explain about the sith. Sith use the dark side of the force. A Sith Lord is a user of the dark side and is the sith equivalent to a Jedi Master. The apprentice of a Sith is called an acolyte, Darth Plagueis (Palpatines master)thought of Darth Maul as a sith assasin and not an Palpatines Apprentice. In between The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones Palpatine killed his master Plagueis. Sith are appointed the name of Darth by their master, for example Darth Maul, Vader, Tyrannus(Dooku), Sidious, Plagueis, Malgus. The reason Kylo Ren was not Darth Ren or something like that was because he was technicaply the last sith left excluding Snoke. So no master could appoint him. The rule of 2 where there can only be 2 sith a master and apprentice probably prevented Assaj Ventress from getting the title aswell.

The crystal in the lightsaber is to focus the beam, like focusing a magnifying glass with sunlight just right to make fire, except that the kyber crystals are unique to the individual Jedi who finds a crystal that is the most attuned to them (kinda like the wands in Harry Potter); in the old lore, the Sith had red sabers because they made synthetic crystals as a way to mock the Jedi way of getting them from nature, in the new lore Dark Side users turn their crystals red by channelling their dark emotions into it...

Hey broski me again yo so the crystal that powers a lightsaber that most ppl use are called kyber crystals theyre a "living" crystal that allows the force to go thro it, when a jedi is picking his/her crystal they will often let the crystal pick them and when a crystal does it will attune to that particular jedis frequency in the force and become either (different shades included) blue, green, yellow, purple/magenta. Notice i didnt say red or white or black. Thats bc none are nature colors that form, for a sith to get his crystal he must first kill a jedi and take theres then force the crystal to submit to the siths will rather than the force this will "hurt" and "kill" the crystal and cause it to "bleed" the crystal that will give it its crimson red color. I put those terms in quotes bc its a rock it doesnt actually bleed but whatever when bleeded a crystal if ur will isnt strong enough u can crack it (ex kylo ren) thats a whole dif conv. White is only obtained when a jedi take a siths crystal and heals it making it a white color. Finally black is the most mysterious bc its only appeared once as the darksaber which was made by tar vizla the first mandolorian jedi but rumor says that he used dark side alchemy to make it. In legends the first jedi and sith had a white and black lightsaber supposably weve never met them or seen them but supposably they were siblings who encapsulated the force the brother became more power hunger and the force being neutral gave him a black crystal made by the very dark side of the force the sister got a white one for the opposite reason, supposedly theyre buried with their lightsabers somewhere.

Hey broski love the video heres some lore for ya as someone whos read all the books and played the game. Bald pale dude in most of the videos- darth malgus he killed his master in the first video to become a darth at this point n time there is no rule of 2 (sideous and vader examples of rule of 2 one master one apprentice) So the whole sith empire is filled with sith lords and stuff there is one emperor named valcius (the guy who fathered the twins) he has the ability to take over ppls bodies so that guy is him rn underneath the emperor are a secret group (dont worry bout them) and under them are the council of darths (think like the jedi council but its only 13 of them all have the name darth ____ whatever there names are) underneath them are their apprentices trying to take their position who are sith lords which are divided into 2 groups and 4 sub groups first is inquisitors (normally use double blades and are more into the force) their two subclasses are sith sorcerers and sith assassins. The other group are sith warriors and their 2 sub classes are mauraders which normally use 2 seperate blades and juggernauts (malgus is a juggernaut) they normally use 1 blade and wear heavy armor. Finally under all these groups are acolytes who havent been chosen by a sith to train under then it goes into none force sensitives like citizens and slaves (if someones born a slave and has the force they can become a acolyte and learn to be sith basically the sith empire is a equal opportunity empire)

If you’re interested in the game, it’s an open world, MMO with pretty standard, (but I think good) gameplay, but what sets it aside is that most all of the NPC interactions had actual animations, dialogue and voice actors, instead of just a wall of text you had to read: even though each character class pretty much goes through the same story, you do get to make some choices that matter, and it really makes you feel like it’s your own story

A BIT OF A LONG POST BUT HEAR ME OUT IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MY HONEST OPINION OF THIS GAME AS A VETERAN OF IT: I been playing this since 2011 and all I can say is that IT'S ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT BRUV!!! Especially if you've never actually played it or not heard much abt it before. It's like being a kid again whilst playing it fr. I actually envy the people that get to play it for the first time, it's absolutely MAGICAL. The story is 100% it's greatest strength. You get to create your own character and choose if you want to be with the Jedi or Sith or like the smuggler mandem with the hat and guns or a soldier like that guy that survived everything. The choice is literally yours. And depending on what type you pick they EACH HAVE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE STORY. And ofc you can create a character for all of them and play them each. Then after you've finished atleast one of the stories there's TONS of dlc's and expansions where you get to continue with your character and embark on multiple different new journeys. The game even has companions/friends you can recruit whom all have different backstories and stories themselves and you can choose to help them out, make them stronger or be a total dick to them and not give a fuck. You can EVEN ROMANCE THEM. You can buy houses for yourself. Different types of vehicles. You get your own SHIP that you can do battles with and customize to your liking. You can do group content with other players and play as a team. There's also PVP (Player vs Player) which is fighting against other players, who ever gets the most kills wins. Like COD or Fortnite but in Star Wars with lightsabers and allat. Like there's a WHOLE NEW WORLD here bruv and I 10000000000% recommend you trying it. Even for being a old game there's bare players and alot of them are veterans too so if you ask for help they will be down to help a newbie out. The only bad thing I might say is that the combat and some of the gameplay might get a bit repetitive whilst your like midway through the game but it picks up again in the later stages. But tbh that might not even be the case for you cuz this is your first time and probably like one of your first times getting into the Star Wars world. So I think you'll like it. Plus the devs are continuosly updating the game and adding content, infact they released a new update like just a week ago. If a multiplayer game that came out 2011 and is STILL ALIVE TODAY and getting updates, whilst soooo many other games nowadays die out quickly; then what does that tell you about this game?? But fr if you genuinely liked the cinematics and the story you will LOVE the game. Imagine getting to play a story like those in the trailer BUT WITH YOUR OWN CHARACTER and making YOUR OWN decisions that can change the course of the story. Trust me fam by your reaction to the trailer you're going to love it or atleast giving it a try. It's free too.
