Story
- The Sith Inquisitor begins the game as a slave, plucked from obscurity and toil in a highly stratified, unforgiving Empire because of his Force-sensitivity and sent to become a Sith or die.
- The Sith inquisitor reports to a Sith overseer as part of the slave caste--a group of low-born wannabes who are not of proper Sith bloodlines
- The Inquisitor is about the darkest of dark side secrets.
- The Inquisitor is about power not (solely) through brute force and intimidation, but through manipulation, corruption, and knowledge.
- The Sith Inquisitor is about the individual at odds with the community, and whether to ultimately embrace that community, transform it, or act in defiance of it.
Advanced Classes
* Ranged DPS/Support (Based on Palpatine)
- Lightning and control powers
- More of a sorcerer than you are a lightsaber-wielder. You operate at range.
- When you decide to specialize, you can really focus on the lightning abilities and being more of a longer range character and a support character you know, where you get to like take out five guys with a giant lightning storm or lift them up into the air and then crash them down down into the ground.
* Melee DPS/Force power hybrid (Based on Darth Maul)
- Agile-wielding the saber staff
- Still have some lightning and other dark powers, but you're much more effective when you leap right into combat and engage in melee.
- If specialized in melee, would a very devious controlling kind, he doesn't have much armors, but he has full use of the Force and he can use it in all sorts of exotic ways to boost his own survivability.
Companions
- Kim Vaal, a Dashade. This companion is a melee focused fighter with the unique racial ability to soak up force power from enemy force users.
- Xalek, a Kaleesh force user. This character becomes the apprentice to the Sith Inquisitor at some time during the main story line. Pure DPS; his combat abilities greatly augment the Inquisitors damage output.
