Sith Knights

The Sith Knights are an ancient, elite order of Sith subservient to the Dark Lord of the Sith in past, and currently serve the Emperor and his Pyramid, as well as the Dark Council.

Mainly bound in tradition and hardly ever see action, the Sith Knights are sworn to serve and protect the Emperor and his interests as well as those of the Empire above all else, forsaking their own agendas in the wake of the great scheme of things. They have three ranks, going from Knight, Warden, and Captain. The overall leader of the order is the Dread Knight.

Ranks
Knight - A Knight is the beginning and typical rank bestowed upon a member of the order. A Sith Knight does not need to be of Darth rank but typically is awarded heavy, glistening black plate armour made of a reinforced, saber-proof material. Many of the Knights wear what resembles a grey skull-like helmet that covers their entire head.

Warden - Somewhat like a Squad commander, a Sith Warden leads a group of Knights when in battle and organizes their marches when out in public. Usually, they wear some form of cloth tabard or a flag attached to their back to signify themselves by their rank.

Captain - The highest rank achievable below Dread Knight, a Sith Captain leads different Divisions of Knights, each one holding roughly 7-12 Knights at a time. They are revered for their battle prowess and do not need to wear a helmet, though they all wear signifying black capes with the Sith Knights sigil on the back in red to show who they are.

Dread Knight
The Dread Knight is a Sith powerful and exalted enough to be named such and lead the order. Mainly, this entails organizing meetings, releasing stations and posts to those on guard for anyone, and planning tactics for when the Knights are actually sent into battle.

The current Dread Knight is Darth Kruel, who quietly loathes his boring position despite the honour and fame that comes with it.

Known Sith Knights

 * Darth Sharr - A Sith Highblood hailing from Dromund Kaas before being sent to Korriban for his training, Sharr became a Lord early on because of his wealth and Highblood heritage. He served two campaigns of war against the Republic alongside Lords Draken and Cable; one over Balmorra, the other in Deep Space near an asteroid belt. For his bravery and efforts, including slaying two Jedi Knights, the three were accepted into the prestigious Sith Knights order following their being granted the title of Darths. Darth Sharr has, since, climbed the ladder to reach the rank of Captain over the "Anguish" Division in the order, specializing in attending meetings and appearances in the name of the order and, at times, joining alongside the others in celebrations and ceremonies.
