Becoming a lord

Apprentices who seek the lordship will face a difficult path, regardless of the circumstance that befalls them. All candidates for the Lordship will need to display retention of the abilities and lessons required of candidates for the apprenticeship in addition to the following requirements.

Philosophy: 

Lords must understand what it is to be Sith beyond just the code. They must know and demonstrate that they understand how a Sith behaves and reasons and be able to share that knowledge with potential apprentices.

The Force: 

Lords will be able to demonstrate basic knowledge and ability in several force abilities of their choice. Those who are consumed by emotion and who fail to draw upon their emotion will need to refine their technique before they can progress.

The Circumstance:

Option #1 Option #2
 * The Trials: Two additional trials of their master's choice shall be completed successfully.
 * The master's recommendation: Masters may recommend a student for lordship following completion of the requirements listed above. recommendations will be decided by members of the Dark council or select high ranking Darths
 * The Trials: All four other trials will be completed with or without the master's choosing. For trials that are not assigned by the master, apprentices may request a trial from the academy.
 * The challenge: The candidate must challenge their master or an approved lord in combat before a select high ranking Darth or member of the Dark Council, who will determine if the candidate is worthy of the lordship at this point.
