Sith Lord is the title carried by former Grand Masters as former Dark Lords of the Sith. Members the Grand Master deems worthy can also be elevated to the status of Sith Lord, this is often the case with Deputy Grand Masters after completing their formal apprenticeship as the Dark Lord's Shadow Hand.

Sith Lords are considered members of the Order of Sith Lords. Members holding the title of Sith Lord are permitted to style themselves as Lord (or Lady) or Darth.

History

While obviously referring to a master of Sith knowledge, the title of 'Sith Lord' (or 'Sith Lady' if referring to a female Dark Lord) seemed to be used somewhat ambiguously to refer to various things, including all Sith, the Dark Lords of the Sith, Sith Masters in Darth Bane's reformed order, or as a rank akin to that of the Jedi Master for the Jedi Order. Several Sith Lords also held the title Darth.

Originally, "Sith Lord" referred to a high-ranking member of the Sith race's society. As the Sith civilization progressed, many claimed the title; Adas was one such lord.
