Becoming an apprentice

The path to apprenticeship isn't a long one, but may have large impact on the future. Before an acolyte becomes an apprentice they must be subjected to a series of tests and trials in order to weed out the weak. The tests and trials are as follows:

The Code of the Sith: All apprentices will understand the basic nature and interpretation of the Sith Code. How is one to be sith if they know not what it means?

"Peace is a lie, there is only passion.  Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me."

- Sorzus Syn, 6900 BBY

The Qotsisajak (Way of the Sith)

"Nwûl tash.  Dzwol shâsotkun. Shâsotjontû châtsatul nu tyûk. Tyûkjontû châtsatul nu midwan. Midwanjontû châtsatul nu asha. Ashajontû kotswinot itsu nuyak. Wonoksh Qyâsik nun."

Basic lightsaber proficiency: The lightsaber is what separates a sith from the dead, wielding it properly will prove usefull.

A basic study of Shii-cho form will provide the tools to become a master in blade work. The academy offers a basic class that teaches the basic principals of Shii-cho and will be taught at regular intervals.

Trials of the academy: The trials are where a sith learns the most about themselves, although they leave few with life and even less unscathed.

Acolytes will choose one of the trials they're offered and complete it. There will be struggle and hardship, but all that matters is that they can prevail.

Following completion of the requirements, acolytes will either be claimed or paired with an eligible master through the academy.
