| okay, the sith were once a species. fallen jedi came to settle on their planet. eventually the two sort of intermingled into one. by the time of KotOR there is no sith species, only the dark jedi that still follow the sith ideals.
but as far as the always being two of them, you are wrong. this was a concept created and enacted by darth bane(whose name brought the tile of darth that sith lords and apprentices are known by....and is also why technically there could be no DARTH Revan or DARTH Malak....as Bane occurs after KotOR) who slew all other dark jedi and deemed that from that day forward there would be only one Sith Lord and one Sith Apprentice, to keep the darkside's power from being weakened and spread too thin in being divided amongst so may dark jedi.
so, no, there has not always been a two rule, or else the only dark jedi to fight in this game would be malak and bandon. that is why the game was probably set before bane's time. as they had to stretch quite a bit to give you lightsaber weilding foes in Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy. going back before bane's time allows for the existence of more than just two dark jedi/sith.  |
