One popular Star Wars Sith novel is 'Darth Bane: Path of Destruction'. It delves into the origin story of Darth Bane, who is a significant figure in Sith history. He reformed the Sith order. Another is 'Revan' which explores the story of the character Revan, who was both a Jedi and a Sith at different times. It's full of complex characters and moral dilemmas.
Yes, 'Shadow of the Sith' focuses on the Sith to some extent. It shows the resurgence of the dark side, which is related to the Sith teachings. It has elements of Sith - related mysteries and the threat they pose to the galaxy.
In a Star Wars New Sith Empire fanfiction, the relationship between the Sith and non - Force - sensitive beings in their empire is worth exploring. Do they see them as mere tools or do they have a more complex view? Maybe they have a system in place where non - Force - sensitive individuals can rise to power in other ways, like through great military leadership or technological innovation, but always under the watchful eye of the Sith Lords.
Female Sith in Star Wars often possess great combat skills. For example, Asajj Ventress was a master of lightsaber combat. They are also very manipulative. Lumiya was able to manipulate those around her to achieve her dark goals. Their appearance can be quite striking, like Talon with her unique Sith look. They are usually driven by power and a desire for revenge or to prove themselves. Most of them have a tragic past that leads them to the dark side, such as Ventress who was orphaned and then used by others.
The story of Darth Maul is also interesting. He was a Zabrak Sith apprentice. Trained by Darth Sidious, Maul was extremely skilled in combat. His double - bladed lightsaber made him a formidable foe. He first appeared in 'The Phantom Menace', where he fought Qui - Gon Jinn and Obi - Wan Kenobi. Although he was seemingly killed by Obi - Wan, he managed to survive and returned later, consumed by his thirst for revenge against the Jedi.
One popular type of Star Wars Sith Temple fanfiction might involve a young Jedi who is lured to the dark side after exploring the Sith Temple. They could encounter ancient Sith artifacts that whisper to them, gradually corrupting their once - pure intentions.
I'd recommend 'Sith Apprentice: Legacy of the Dark Side'. It's a story that focuses on an apprentice who discovers an ancient Sith artifact and the chaos that ensues. It's full of mystery and action.
