Humanite Sith

The **Humanite Sith**, also known as the **Humanite Enforcers** or **Rogue Enforcers**. were an unofficial splinter group of the Sith Army that existed during the First Age of the Old Republic.

The Humanites were regular Blackboots or Sith Warriors who believed that because the original incarnation of the Sith was founded by three humans (Evvret Darth, Hyst and Embak), the Sith Empire should be made up of only humans. They had a particular distaste for the pureblood Sith race as they were the ones who were the original slaves of the first Dark Lords. The organisation was disavowed as an extremist organisation by the Empire as they murdered alien civilians, especially the Purebloods.

In 6063 BBY, the leader of the Humanites, Farveil, along with six other enforcers were hired as mercenaries to hunt for a boy that went missing a year priot. They confronted a pureblood blacksmith Toras about the location of the human child. When one of the Humanites discovered the boy hiding in a cupboard in Toras' workshop, they accused the pureblood of kidnapping the boy, when, in fact, the boy was actually Toras' apprentice, Zhen.

Toras killed two of the Humanites in self defence, but was quickly defeated by Farveil soon after. The young boy took Toras' secret lightsaber and fled the scene, with the Humanites in pursuit. The boy would soon be confronted by Darth Kysus, who assisted Zhen in defeating Farveil and the last of the Humanites.

## **Philosophy**

> "*Ye blackboots aren't like any I've seen before. Who are ye people?"
> "We're adherents of a new era of this Empire. One where our people reign supreme whilst yours are put in it's rightful place; lying submissive the blood-stained dirt.*"

The Humanites core belief was that alien species were the Sith Empire's greatest weakness and that the human race was inherently superior to the other species.

Their ultimate objective was to make the Empire a human-only kingdom. They intended to do this by freeing humans who were enslaved by the Empire, purging the Sith ranks of all non-human members and enslaving any non-humans left in the Empire.

The Humanites held a particular animosity towards the pureblood Sith, as they were the original race of the Sith Dynasty that were enslaved by the first Dark Lords of the Sith.

The Humanites were formed sometime before 6063 BBY, during a time when the Empire was under siege from the Republic.

In 6063 BBY, the leader of the Humanites, Farveil, along with six other enforcers, confronted the pureblood blacksmith Toras about the location of a young human boy who had run away from his home the year prior. Farveil explained to Toras that the mother of the child had passed away and that Imperial law decreed the child must be taken to the Sith Academy to be trained as an Acolyte. Although Toras was defiant about the enforcers raiding his home, he quickly realised that he would not be able to stop the combined force of all seven enforcers at once. Conceding to Farveil's demands, Toras let them into his property, with three of the Humanites calling Toras disparaging names such as "shlyk", "thorn-face" and "false-blood". When one of the Humanites discovered the boy hiding in a cupboard in Toras' workshop, they accused the pureblood of kidnapping the boy, when, in fact, the boy was actually Toras' apprentice, Zhen. When Toras tried to defend himself from the accusations, one of the enforcers ignited his lightsabers and charged at him. Toras defeated the man by throwing him through a window. He grabbed a secret lightsaber out from under his forge and ignited it, using it to kill another enforcer. Toras, however, was then killed by Farveil who impaled the blacksmith in the stomach.

Zhen took Toras' lightsaber and fled into the streets outside the smithy, with the enforcers in pursuit of him. He eventually ran into Darth Kysus and his apprentice who were hunting the Humanites. Zhen allied himself with Kysus and his apprentice to fight against the enforcers and killed every single one, including Farveil. Kysus' apprentice, however was killed by one of the Humanites during the duel, so Kysus took Zhen to the Sith Academy where he would eventually grow up to become Kysus' new apprentice.

## **Equipment**

The Humanites wore the standard robes and helmets and masks that the Sith Minion or Sith Warrior would use, making them almost indistinguishable from the Empire's ranks. There were several differences between their infantry counterparts, however, as they tended to wear capes, which was not something the Warriors or Assassins would wear. They also sported more armour than the minions of the Sith Army, including vambraces and chestplates.

They would also wield duel shoto lightsabers as opposed to the standard lightsaber of the Warrior and the double bladed lightsaber of the Assassin.
