After Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine, who are the Star Wars canon and Legends timeline's deadliest Imperial dark side users?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Star Wars franchise’s non-movie material from canon and Legends reveals that Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader are not the only dark side users in the Galactic Empire. Darth Bane’s post-Ruusan Sith Order is defined by its Rule of Two, which only allows two Dark Lords of the Sith at a time, but this did not prevent Palpatine and Vader from training Force-sensitives to use the dark side as Sith in all but name.
9 The Grand Inquisitor The new Star Wars canon’s version of the Imperial Inquisitors is intentionally kept weak to prevent them from becoming threats to Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. Despite this, one Inquisitor’s martial skills and dark side powers are more impressive than his colleagues. The unnamed Pau'an and former Jedi Temple Guard became the Grand Inquisitor for both his power and skill at hunting down Jedi.
7 Hethrir Similar to Kharys, Hethrir was trained by Darth Vader to use the dark side of the Force, but rather than being given rule over his home planet, he became the Procurator of Justice, putting him in charge of the Empire’s draconian justice system. Hethrir was skilled in lightsaber combat and his training made him a powerful dark side user, but he was arguably less formidable in a battle than Kharys.
4 Cronal The mysterious Cronal, also known as Blackhole, is associated with Imperial Intelligence, the Prophets of the Dark Side , and the nihilistic Sorcerers of Rhand. Cronal was one of Palpatine’s deadliest agents, and his arrogance perhaps overshadowed his well-honed dark side abilities, with Cronal believing himself to be superior to both Darth Vader and even Emperor Palpatine.
