FAMOUS SITH

Ever wondered how the Sith choose their names? "Vader"? "Sidious"? What kind of names are those? Wonder no longer! The secrets of the dark side shall now be revealed...

In truth, Sith aren't very imaginative. Our researches, based on the names of the two most famous Sith, led us to conclude that they follow a very simple practice when choosing names. See if you can spot it:

• Darth (in)Vader
• Darth (in)Sidious

Got it? I hope so. Of course, this left us with a little problem when Darth Maul appeared (however briefly) on the scene. Fortunately, we can report that the problem has been solved; the newest addition to our list is in fact:

• Darth shop (in)Maul

The discovery of this fact allows us to peer forward into the mists of time, and bring you the names of the Sith we have yet to meet. Please welcome:

• The quietly menacing Darth Audible.
• The gigolo, Darth Tercourse.
• The extremely rude Darth Solent.
• The stunted Darth Ch.
• The unusual Darth Teresting.
• The hopeless Darth Competent.
• In debt to the Dark Side, Darth Solvent.
• The poorly motivated Darth Dolent.
• The slimy weasel, Darth Gratiate.
• Darth Crement, known for his positive outlook.
• The hellish Darth Fernal.
• The painfully curious Darth Quisitor.
• Darth Sert the Impaler.
• The unkillable villain, Darth Vulnerable. - thought to be an alias taken by Darth Sidious after his first death
