Star Wars May Have Just Massively Retconned Sith History With One Line

Summary The Acolyte has finally revealed the identity of its mysterious Sith Lord, but it may be retconning Sith history in the process. The Acolyte episode 5 showed a Jedi massacre at the hands of Mae’s master, who was revealed to be Qimir. The action-packed episode was truly thrilling and jammed-packed with amazing lightsaber duels, compelling storytelling, and the tragic deaths of so many Jedi.

Qimir Seems To Be Hinting The Jedi Named The Sith The Term’s Origins Haven’t Been Revealed Close In Qimir’s speech to Master Sol in which he describes what he is, Qimir responds, “You might call me a Sith.” While this isn’t anything concrete, Qimir’s phrasing suggests that the term “Sith” doesn’t come from the dark side users, but the Jedi.

Was "Sith" A Derogatory Term Used By The Jedi? Star Wars Has Developed In-Universe Expletives Before Close While Star Wars generally stays away from derogatory names, it has developed its own language of Star Wars curse words and phrases. One of the most common is “dank farrik,” which may be an expletive but is usually used to express anger or excitement. "Dank farrik" has often been used in Star Wars titles like The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.

In the now non-canon Legends continuity, terms like “Sithpit” and “Bane’s blood” were used as derogatory terms by the Jedi. The term “Bane’s blood” originates with the Sith Lord Darth Bane, who in Legends created the Sith Rule of Two. The Rule of Two is also part of canon and explains why there are never more than two Sith at any time.
