    The True Sith 

Sith Lords

The Emperor

  • Ancient Evil: The Republic and the Jedi see him as one.
  • Eldritch Abomination: He is described as a "Force entity" who is technically no longer part of his birth race. However he still prefers to use Tellurian Sith clones of his original body as his corporeal hosts.
  • The Emperor: He has ruled the true Sith Empire since the Old Sith Wars.
  • Human Alien: It is revealed that he, his siblings and his biological mother are not humans, but members of a subspecies known as the Tellurian Sith (which originated in Egypt), having descended from the Sith-human hybrids which fled to Earth after the Great Hyperspace War, which are in turn a subspecies of the extinct ancient Sith. It turns out that the Sith gene is the dominant one, eliminating the possibility of the child having any human traits (except for those already present in the Tellurian Sith race).
  • The Man Behind the Man: For millenia, he was this to the galaxy, much like his predecessor. It is implied that he not only manipulated many events, such as the Fourth Great Schism and the New Sith Wars, but also organizations such as Darth Bane's Sith Order.
    • He later states that he has indeed been manipulating them, but does not hide his hatred towards the Banite Sith.

    The Hord Monarchy 

Hord Dynasty

Tenraul Hord

A direct descendant of Tulak Hord and Darth Revan, he was the first monarch of the Hord dynasty to rule over Taris. He, much like grand part of those of the Hord dynasty, is in fact an avatar of the Sith Emperor.
  • The Atoner: Despite not being an evil person himself, Tenraul began the restoration of Taris as a way of atoning for the actions of his Sith ancestors, despite the fact that it was Darth Malak (who he is not related to) who ordered its bombardment.
  • The Good King: Despite being long dead, the inhabitants of the Tarisian monarchy see him as this.

Cortous VI Hord

A descendant of Tenraul and the father of Harrison Hord, he was the last monarch of the Tarisian monarchy, before it was reorganized by his son as the new Empire of Japrael with Onderon as its capital.

Harrison Hord

The son of Cortous VI Hord, Harrison Hord was a Force-sensitive who became a member of the Jedi Order, although the Jedi were under tight restrictions due to his royal blood. He eventually began to drift away from the Jedi beliefs, and abandoned the Order.
  • The Emperor: After inheriting the Tarisian monarchy from his father, he founded the Empire of Japrael, with him as its Emperor.
    • Later, during his time as the Supreme Chancellor, he turned the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire, proclaiming himself with the support of the Senate as the new Galactic Emperor.
  • Young Conqueror: At the age of fourteen he conquered the Japrael system from the Confederacy.
  • Young and in Charge: He succeeded his late father as the monarch of the Tarisian monarchy, and was also elected as Supreme Chancellor after removing Palpatine from office.
