Introduction to the Sith Class[edit]
Welcome to the Dark Side, apprentice. Here we introduce the newest (and soon-to-be greatest) Sith class from the Star Wars fandom. This class will be made based on information and powers retrieved from the successful MMORPG, Star Wars The Old Republic, as well as from numerous novels. Information will not be pulled from the movies. So if that is the extent of your Star Wars knowledge, this will all be new to you.
This class will be DPS-based (no serious tanking, or healing). You start out as an acolyte of the Sith Order. As you level and grow, you will have the opportunity to craft your own lightsaber (yes, you need to find/buy the materials), pick a specialization (path), obtain unique powers, rise up in the ranks, and more.
It is highly advised that you take the Acolyte background for this class, in order to get the full lore output of it.

Equipment List[edit]
Acolyte's Armor
A set of black and silver robes with padded leather joints. Used by beginners at the academy, it offers the most basic protection of an aspiring Sith. Classified as clothing.
Sith Robes
Jet black hooded dual-layered robes that offer little in the way of protection, but offer freer movement than most clothes. Classified as clothing.
Lightsaber
A tool of every Force user, the lightsaber is your most precious weapon along the Force. A lightsaber is a sword with a metal hilt and no cross-guard that contains a unique focusing crystal as well as compartments for additional power enhancement crystals. The "blade" is the length of your standard longsword, and is made purely of a plasma-like colored light that emits from the focusing crystal inside the hilt. The plasma light has the ability to cut deeper than a normal sword.
This is considered a magical weapon for DnD standards.
Lightsabers may come as a shortsword-like variant or a double-sided variant, depending on your path chosen.
Sith's Tool Set
As a Sith, you may choose this tool set to acquire a variety of tools and items to aid you. These items include:
A blank Sith Holocron: Used to record information. After recording information from one instance or moment, you roll a 1D20. If you roll a 5 or lower, it is considered full and the information must be deleted (record it onto paper first if you need the info) before you can record more.
A bottle of ink and quill.
5 pieces of parchment.
A relic from your lineage (necklace, bracelet, or book on your family line.)
20 feet of wire attached to a magnetic hook for grappling, stored in a small pouch.
The Force[edit]
As a prospective Sith, you wield the power of The Force, which is the cosmic energy that binds the universe and all living things together. The Sith have harnessed The Force into a religion known as the Dark Side, which fuels your abilities and is intensified by rage, anger, hate, pain, and other powerful yet negative emotions. The Dark Side allows you to channel out different Force abilities based on what you have learned during your lifetime.
Force Powers are used by spending Force Points, which are gained via these two ways: Either leveling up, or meditating. Leveling up passively gains you additional Force Points (see table for details). You may also choose to meditate on the Dark Side to gain more Force Points during a long rest. Meditating uses up your entire long rest and the long rest cannot be used for anything else if you chose to meditate. Doing this awards you with a +5 gain to your maximum Force Points. Force Points are replenished back to your full amount after ending a long rest.
Force Powers[edit]
As a Sith, you are able to harness The Force to use various spells called Force Powers. You can have as many Force Powers learned and prepared as desired, but you can only learn so many based on your path. Instead of deciding which ones to prepare and know like a normal spellcaster, your Force Point resource decides how many you can use before your next long rest. Plan out your Force Point usage wisely to make sure you always have the amount needed for each fight.
The Paths to Power[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 3, your time as a mere learner comes to an end. But there is always more power and knowledge to be gained to better yourself and further your gains.
Before continuing, you choose between the three Sith paths to determine your future: Marauder, Sorcerer, Assassin.
Each has their own unique specialties and strengths. Once chosen, the decision is final. Choose wisely. See below for the full description of each path.
Path Of The Marauder[edit]
The path of the Marauder, fitted with two lightsabers and a bloodlust. You focus on decimating an enemy, using raw power instead of relying on force abilities. The power of an experienced Marauder is something to be feared, capable of decimating armies and continuing onwards unscathed.
Upon choosing the Path of the Marauder, the Sith creates their second lightsaber. For the purposes of Two Weapon Fighting, the second lightsaber is treated as a light weapon.
Path Of The Sorcerer[edit]
So you've chosen the path of the sorcerer eh? The path of the Sorcerer is one walked by only the select few particularly gifted in the Force. Though on this path forsake their potential in other categories in order to become complete masters of the Force itself. You focus primarily on Force Powers, bending the Force to your will in ways others only dreamed were possible. The power at your fingertips (sometimes literally) has no equal.
Sorcerer's Items[edit]
A Sith holocron was a device used by Sith to store information. Typically, they required use of the dark side to activate. The black crystal of the Sith holocron was made up of intricate lattices and vertices, capable of storing massive amounts of information, as well as the holocron's Sith gatekeeper. The holocron was able to capture the appearance and cognitive networks of the holocron's owner, and transform this into a three-dimensional hologram.
Path Of The Assassin[edit]
The Sith assassins were unique because they preferred to ambush their intended prey from the shadows rather than engaging them in open combat. Almost always working solo or in small groups, they utilized Stealth and the rare art of Force camouflage to aid their surprise attacks. While some elite assassins fought with double-blade lightsabers, the majority utilized less remarkable melee weapons, such as force pikes. These stealth warriors were also unusual in that they drew their power from the Force presence of their prey. The stronger their targets were in the Force, the stronger the hunters became.
Sith Features/Universal Abilities[edit]
A brief description of each feature and universal ability unlocked while playing as a Sith.
Note: Some features continued in depth further down the page.
Ability Score Increase[edit]
When you reach 4th level Sith, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
Force Push/Pull/Sith Mage hand[edit]
When you reach Sith level 1, you obtain the ability to push, pull, or grab an object or creature that is the same size as you or smaller (at Sith level 8, you may move a creature or object one size bigger than you. At Sith level 14, two sizes. At Sith level 20, any one creature or object regardless of size).
Moving something costs 3 Force Points at Sith level 1, 6 Force Points at Sith level 8, 12 Force Points at Sith level 14, and 24 Force Points at Sith level 20.
The object/creature must be within 45 feet of you and is pushed or pulled in any direction of your choosing at a distance of up to 60 feet.
Force push: Cost is 3 force points. Creature(s) in front of the user take XD10 + strength modifier bludgeoning damage and are pushed back 1d6 squares away. X is half your current Sith level, rounded up. X cannot be lower than 1. If the creature impacts an object smaller than it, the object is destroyed. If the creature impacts another creature, that creature takes half of the damage of the thrown creature. Creatures pushed may make a Dexterity save of 15 to be pushed half distance rolled.
Force Lightning[edit]
When you reach Sith level 2, you are able to use Force Lightning. You channel the dark energy inside you into jolts of pure lightning to a target within 60 feet of you, dealing XD10+Charisma Modifier lightning damage. X is half your current Sith level, rounded up. X cannot be lower than 1. Target may make a spell DC save for half damage. Cost is 3 force points.
Creating Your Lightsaber[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 3, the time has come in your training to create your first lightsaber. Your first lightsaber is a basic one-handed lightsaber. Once you choose your Path later on, you will either add on to this lightsaber to create a double-bladed version (Assassin), add a unique force crystal to imbue force techniques into (Sorcerer), or create a second one to dual-wield (Marauder).
To make your lightsaber, you must gather 5 parts: Hilt, Focusing Crystal, Lens, Emitter Matrix, and Energy Cell.
Each of these pieces are dropped by enemies CR 1 or higher. Every time you kill a creature CR 1 or higher, you roll a 1D20. If the roll is 15 or higher, you then roll a 1D20 again for which piece you have found.
1-4: Hilt.
5-8: Focusing Crystal.
9-12: Lens.
13-16: Emitter Matrix.
17-20: Energy Cell.
If you find a piece (Example: Roll an 18 and get an Emitter Matrix) and roll later and it lands on a piece you already found, that instead counts as not finding a piece this time, as you cannot get copies of the pieces yet.
Note: You may also choose to purchase these materials at the vendors and prices listed here.
Hilt and Lens are bought at Blacksmiths for 100 gp.
Emitter Matrix and Energy Cell are bought at Arcane shops for 100 gp.
Focusing Crystals are bought at Arcane shops for 200 gp. See Focusing Crystal mini-section below for what you do once finding a Focusing Crystal.
Focusing Crystal
This item is the color crystal of your lightsaber as well as the main power source. Upon finding a Focusing Crystal, you roll a 1D10 to determine the color you found:
1-2: Red.
3-4: Yellow.
5-6: Orange.
7-8: Purple.
9-10: Black.
If you find a color you did not want, you may opt to destroy the crystal to instead wait to find the one you want. You cannot change the color of the crystal by any means.
Lightsaber
Upon creating your one-handed lightsaber, here are the stats for it:
It is considered a magical longsword, and deals 3D10 Force damage. If you roll a natural 1 on your attack roll, there is a 50% that the lightsaber crystal will overload and is deactivated for 1D4 rounds.
Your lightsaber gains the ability Force Deflection: If you are targeted with a single-target non-magical projectile (such as an arrow, bullet, or bolt), and the enemy succeeds its attack roll, you may choose to spend 2 Force Points to attempt to deflect it. You roll a 1D20. If you roll a 10 or higher, you succeeded in deflecting it harmlessly into the ground near you. If you roll a natural 20, you succeed in deflecting the projectile back to its sender, dealing half of the damage you would have taken.
Lightsaber Forms[edit]
Shii Cho Lightsaber Form: The Shii Cho, also known as Form I, is the most basic and simplistic of the lightsaber forms. Upon finishing creating your lightsaber, you unlock this form for combat. It is a balance form geared towards disarming your opponent rather than going for a kill. You use this form by default, but may switch to a different form once unlocked through your path by using a bonus action. While in this form, you gain +1 to your lightsaber-based attack rolls and and have a chance to disarm your opponent instead of dealing damage. After landing an attack roll, roll a 1D20. If you roll a 13 or higher, you may choose to disarm your opponent instead of dealing damage.
Makashi Lightsaber Form: "The Way of Ysalamiri", or Form II, was devloped when Jedi started fighting others that hold a lightsaber as well as Sith lords. This move works on emphasizing on precision, simple footwork, and preventing disarmament. While in this form you gain advantage against being disarmed and you gain +3 to attack and damage rolls against opponents that use lightsabers.
Shien Lightsaber From: Form V, or "Way Of The Krayt Dragon", The basic style of this form is to use one strengths to defeat the opponent. While in this from you gain +5 to all attack and damage rolls, but suffer a -5 to AC.
Channel Hatred[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 6, you gain the ability to use Channel Hatred once per day.
Channel Hatred allows you to tap into the hate and anger inside you for a temporary increase in raw power. A blood red aura appears around you. You gain +10ft speed, +10 Force Points, and +2 to your attack and hit rolls for 1d10 + Constitution modifier minutes. Once you use this ability you cannot use it until you finish A long rest
Force Maneuverability[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 7, you call upon the Force to reposition yourself when you see fit. During you turn you may use your movement and spend the required force points to perform one of the following abilities.
Force Leap
Force Points: 2
You may leap to any surface within 20 feet of you, whether it be up, down, or anywhere around you. If you leap downward, you do not take fall damage.
Force Dodge
Force points: 5
Your connection to the force gives you minor precognitive abilities, when you use this ability you gain a +5 to your AC until the start of your next turn.
Improving Your Lightsaber[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 9, your lightsaber bends to you, and its crystal is imbued with more power from the Dark Side. Your path determines how your lightsaber is powered.
The Path of the Marauder: Striking your enemy first is key to getting the upper edge on your opponents. Your attacks are relentless and fierce, just like the Sith you are. At level 9, add +2 to your roles to hit, and add 1d6 of fire damage. At Level 13, add +3 to hit and an extra 1d6 of fire damage. At level 17, add +4 to hit and an extra 1d6 of fire damage.
The Path of the Sorcerer: While the lightsaber is not your preferred method, the Force guides its attacks. As an action, you can thrust your body at a target. If the attack hits, the target takes an extra 1d8 of damage, and is knocked prone. If the target has allies in a 15m area, they must make a Wisdom DC Saving throw, or be frightened.
The Path of the Assassin: Your crystal is as silent as those you strike down. Whenever you make an attack, the strike is silent and will not cause any attention. This includes drawing out the weapon, sheathing it, and attacking. When you make a sneak attack against a target, the target must make a DC constitution saving throw, or be silenced from the strike given, preventing them from calling for help.
Unlock Your Second Form[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 11, based on your path chosen, you will unlock a second lightsaber form unique to your path.
Marauder: Jar'Kai Lightsaber Form, while duel wielding lightsabers and in this form, your attack rolls gain damage equal to your strength modifier+2 and suffer a -2 to AC, also you can use a bonus action to make another attack but add your strength modifier to damage and suffer -4 to attack
Sorcerer: Niman Lightsaber form, while in this form It was used to combine lightsaber combat with other Force abilities, like pushes and lifts.
Assassin: Ataru or "The of Way of Hawk-Bat" Lightsaber Form, while in this form after making an attack you can use a bonus action to use the dash, disengage, or dodge action. Also your attacks rolls gain damage equal to your Dex modifier
Beast Control[edit]
Force Points: 8
Upon reaching Sith level 13, you unlock the Beast Trick ability. Beast Trick allows you to calm an animal or other beast-like creature that is hostile towards you or an ally.
Creature makes a spell DC save. If it fails, you calm the beast down and it is no longer hostile for 3 rounds.
Note: Animal Handling does not apply for this ability.
Mind Trick[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 14, you unlock Mind Trick, a feature just as iconic as the Force itself.
Mind Trick is an out-of-combat feature that you may use once in between long rests. Mind Trick allows you to double your current Persuasion, Deception, or Intimidation score for one check. You may also reroll if you roll a natural 1.
Battle Premonition[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 17, you gain the feature Battle Premonition. You may activate Battle Premonition once after a short rest, and requires another short rest to be completed before you can use it again.
At the end of your turn, you may activate Battle Premonition. This allows you glimpses and visions of the attacks made against you until your next turn starts. During this time period, all enemies that attack you do so at disadvantage, and you gain advantage on all saving throws.
Spirit Of The Force[edit]
Upon reaching Sith level 18, you are able to use this ability. Spirit Of The Force activates upon your death. Upon death, you still roll death saves. However, you also gain a special turn until combat is over.
When it comes time for it to be your turn, you take it as if you were alive (while making death saves). You become an ethereal Spirit Of The Force. You may target any enemy within 15 feet of your body and perform Spirit Purge. You cannot be targeted by non-holy abilities and abilities that cannot hit ethereal bodies.
This lasts until you either succeed your death saves, or until combat ends.
Spirit Purge
Spirit Purge has a range of 15 feet from where your body is. You may make an attack roll to pass through another creature, weakening them with your spirit force. If you succeed, target takes 3d10 force damage and takes 2 exhaustion points.
Sith Ranks[edit]
Acolyte[edit]
Sith Acolyte was a rank within the Sith Order prior to Darth Bane's reformation. The term was used to refer to Force-sensitive apprentices who had only just started on the dark path under the tutelage of a more experienced Sith Lord to rightfully bear the mantle of Sith.
This rank doesn't give any bonuses in the Empire.
Apprentice[edit]
A Sith apprentice was a Force-sensitive individual trained by a Sith Master to use the dark side of the Force. The age at which a Sith apprentice began their training varied.

You're able to receive a spaceship if your master gives you one.
Darth[edit]
Darth was a title given to certain Sith Lords which preceded either their chosen Sith name, or, in some cases, their birth name.

Dark Lord Of The Sith[edit]
Dark Lord of the Sith was a title held by Sith Lords who were members of the ancient Sith Order. However, there was only one at a time. DM specifies if there is a current Dark Lord or not.
If the player manages to reach the rank, DM must specify if the position is empty. If it is empty, then the player may take it. They are able to do everything that the ranks before can, ontop of that they're able to call in royal guards, deploy an army consisting of however many the DM specifies.

You can specify a simple and general course of action, such as “Attack that creature,” “Run over there,” or “Fetch that object.” If the creature completes the order and doesn't receive further direction from you, it defends and preserves itself to the best of its ability.
You can use your action to take total and precise control of the target. Until the end of your next turn, the creature takes only the actions you choose, and doesn't do anything that you don't allow it to do. During this time, you can also cause the creature to use a reaction, but this requires you to use your own reaction as well.
Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Wisdom saving throw against the power. If the saving throw succeeds, the power ends.
At higher levels. You may use more force points to increase this power’s effects. If you spend 2 additional power points, the duration of this power is changed to concentration, up to 8 hours.

The touch of your shadow-wreathed hand can siphon life force from others to heal your wounds. Make a melee force power attack against a creature within your reach. On a hit, the target takes 3d4 force damage, and you regain hit points equal to half the amount of force damage dealt. Until the spell ends, you can make the attack again on each of your turns as an action.
At higher levels. You may use more force points to increase this power’s effects. For every 2 additional force points used, the damage increase by 1d4.
