The worst thing about Darth Tenebrous: He never told his apprentice the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise.
Good one
Have you ever hear .....
🙄
Ahem
It's not a story a Sith Master would tell him.
The Darth Plagueis novel is so good, I'm honestly glad Disney didn't make it into a movie. They would butcher it in the blink of an eye.
Anyone who made the Plagueis novel into a movie would butcher it because the novel could never be adapted into a movie. The narrative is way too long and complex. It would need to be a tv show, probably with multiple seasons.
Here here!! The book is phenomenal! I’m almost at the end of it
they would have done a great job turning Plagueis into a trans pakistani woman/man whos trying to "find her/himself" in the force...
It should only be a matter of months before you can put that book into an AI and get the movie you always wanted.
If you liked his book, Banes are unbelievable, the first esp.
"Meesa will prove to be a more bombad annoying Sith Lord than Tenebrous."
Darth Tenebrous is a character thats growing on me not only because I like the Bith Species in general but he sounds like one of the Smartest Sith lords that ever existed, All others were warriors and combatants whereas Tenebrous was more of a Evil Scientist which I find more interesting
yeah i think hes cool
I like that he aknowledged that he wasnt the most powerful and used science to surpass his limitiions
in theory anyway :p
I like the Sith which play less than obvious important roles - but still deeply influential ones.
Tenacious was a scientist and engineer, he was able to supply armies ans governments of his choosing to further his own and the Siths plans, as well as funding himself and influencing the Galaxy at large.
Plagueis was a banker, and as weve seen in our own world, banking is the less obvious but far more influential aspect of economically influencing the world.
They arent explicit combatants, they aren't politicians and they remain in the shadows, but heavily influence events and make connections for the next in the Line of the Rule of Two.
Thank you
I like how neither Plagueis nor Tenebrous really respected lightsabers, but Tenebrous still enjoyed a duel. I imagine a saber battle is a great way to let oneself slip into the dark side, it's violent, it puts strain on the physical form, and it's extremely dangerous. All good things for sinking oneself deeper into the darkside of the force. It was one of Starkiller's, essentially, meditation methods, typically enjoying his spars with his droid Proxy.
Agreed. Sideous is kinda unique, in that he considered Lightsabers to be a Jedi weapon, and that the Sith had evolved beyond the need for them. Since he was either the best swordsman in the galaxy, or tied with Yoda, depending on how you interpret the outcome of their duel in the Senate Rotunda, it actually does make a lot of sense. He destroyed the Jedi Order while only killing 3 Jedi with his own lightsaber. For him, it was more a contingency plan than anything else. A backup plan, in case he was cornered, as he of course was by Mace and the other 3 cannon fodder- I mean Jedi.
@@stooge389Imagine if Sidious had focused more on being a warrior instead of a sorcerer. He was already in the top tier of all lightsaber duelists in the galaxy, having obliterated three of the finest blade beings in a matter of seconds and holding his own against both Mace and Yoda. If he had more of warrior "build", I seriously doubt that anyone would have been able to defeat him in combat.
It's actually sad that the Sith only ruled for 20ish years after thousands of years of planning. 😢😢😢
😂
while in real life only siths ruling
yup, Star Wars has a problem with time, like the Clone Wars is a fantastic setting and has a lot of interesting ideas, but its a conflic of 3 YEARS, shorter than half of IRL wars. It would have been great if the Empire and the Emperor took way more time to fall
@@rodogkaThey've all been corrupted by the dark side.
@@joaquinrodriguez227
I get what you mean, but think that this is 3 years of a GALAXY-SPANNING WAR. Imagine the scale of carnage and death.
Love to think that Tenebrous and Vader could have bonded over starship design.
Imagine both of them having a pod race
@@user-fl9te5ur2n Sidious loved them too can you imagine that big sith family? lol
@@andrefigueredo34😂😂😂
I think you make a good point
Siths don't bond.
Dude pulled a Twilight Zone on himself, wanted immortality, got it and instantly regretted it
Harry Plagueis. The boy who lived.
"A hell of his own creation, without even a mouth with which to scream." Fantastic reference! The writing for these videos is enchantingly good.
Dharr Mann plots be like:
That's how it always goes for the sith. Ultimately they are foolish, and waste their time on foolish plans. They're completely corrupted, unable to see the wisdom in forsaking evil. So like the jedi say, they're now enslaved to it.
@@enermaxstephens1051
And the jedi are enslaved to their own morality and code- They’re on the opposite extreme of the spectrum. You need a balance, both the Jedi and Sith were wrong.
I liked this era of the Sith for their hypocrisy and weakness of ideology. These Sith were something akin to old money, who had gained much via inheritance but had no understanding of its value. This, culminating in Palpatine electrocuting his drunk, sleeping master who had still not fully tested his own theories (which Sidious would later need to become immortal, but were now lost to time since he had never truly eclipsed Plagueis in skill beyond political maneuvering.)
I've read a theory that Palpatine did actually achieve immortality. When Palpatine tells Luke to strike him down with all his hatred, Luke actually killing Palpatine would allow him to possess Luke. The son of the chosen one would naturally have unbelievably high midichlorions, meaning Palpatine would have achieved the goal of his predecessors. The theory goes on that if Palpatine killed Plagueis and each sith before them killed their master maybe Darth Bane is simply the one and only Sith, possessing each apprentice after the next
I like this era as well, for a reason you yourself stated in a video a long time ago.
This era of Sith werent overtly important people. They weren't warriors, combatants, political leaders, or anyone blatantly obviously influencing the world.
They were scientists, engineers bankers. were connected people who could influence the Galaxy in subtle and deep ways all hidden in the shadows. They didnt need to fight in the open, they could finance or supply armies with machines or tech to suit their ends and be relatively unknown for their actions.
The hell are you doing here?!?! shouldn't you be making barely acceptable animated furry porn for CZcams right about now?
@@joshdunne8792Bane attemp at possesing Zannah failed though, only a little part of his essence went into her. But yeah, both canonical and EU Sidious mastered the essence transfer
Yep leave it to a Sith to leave some world changing technology like essence transfer on the shelf just so they can kill their master, the only tool in the galaxy that understands the science, and slip onto their throne.
The fact Tenebrous was done in by his own force ability should say all that's needed in the "if he was strong enough to become a Sith Emperor." debate.
I like how Tenebrous and Plagueis are one of few force users with a rationalist outlook on the Force. Most Force users, even the Sith, treat the Force as this mystic, religious phenomenon but Nome and Damask treat the Force in an almost entirely scientific manner. It's a unique perspective and I wish we saw more characters use this angle
I do wonder if the particularly shameful ends of Tenebrous and Plagueis were because the Force itself held them in a special contempt for "demystifying" it. If Palpatine's end was the Force acting in a sort of self-defense, their end was the Force repaying an insult
I think the scientific angle was just one way that the Force explores a dichotomy. In this case science versus mysticism. As much that Tenebrous and Plageus twisted force cells their very act of comprehending the force scientifically laid the groundwork for the jedi prophecy to come true in the form of Anakin Skywalker as the Force converged on Tatooine.
"There is no problem that Bith science can't solve!" -Darth Annoying.
Love the fact that on korriban the ghost ignored plagueis but wanted to kill sidious lol
Tenebrous after Plagueis turns on him: 'Huh, this is a new feeling, pride in someone else... Unfortunately, it's overshadowed by all this unyielding rage!'
Nice one.
Tenebrous and his “Maxichlorians” kinda remind me of Voldemort and his use age of horocruxes, and how his ultimate fate left him in limbo and invisible to the rest of the world.
Of course it does. The whole Harry Potter story is one big Star Wars rip off. An chosen orphan (Luke) boy who's parents got murdered by an evil wizard (Palps) and their followers rises up after being trained by a good wizard (Obi Wan). The only real difference is Vader. SW did a way better job in that area. Harry Potter is fun but it's like the diet soda version of the SW story.
Nah. Plagueis reminds me more of no-nose-having-ass Voldemort because of their similar faces.
Nonsense. There are so many differences. You are talking about archetypes which are present in most fantasy stories. @@mrjuse5470
It's actually like Tenebrae the sith Emperor, who did the same thing as a backup plan.
Tenbrous actually set in motion the downfall of the rule of 2 sith by starting to deviate from the banite tradition leading to palpatine who cared nothing for teaching a worthy successor but only in manipulating powerful beings and broken beings he could fool into believing he actually valued as his students. Palptine wanted to start the rule of 1 and that and his inablility to see the light in vader and overestimated how far he could push him.
As a Sith Lord, getting squashed by falling rocks is a pretty dishonorable death. Quite fitting for someone who turned his back on the force, thinking super weapons were the future.
Thanos had the same problem. Pity.
"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force."
Imagine if Tenebrous instead embraced the Force and incorporated it into the technological advancements he wanted to make, a lá the Rakatan Infinite Empire? Maybe even inspired to do so by the Rakatans, as an even more ancient group of dark-side wielders whom pre-dated the Sith and even played a role in the creation of the first Sith holocron. The Rakatans were able to create a bunch of crazy tech and even a superweapon known as the Starforge by combining the Force with the technology they used. I like the idea of a Bane lineage Sith like Tenebrous with his more rational approach to Force abilities looking at that and going "imma yoink these ideas"
We all know that the real reason is the 3 a.m. saxophone solo which kept Plagues awake for years.
Tenebrous was a founding member, in the original Max Reebo Band.
Lol, his master was one of the cantina band members 😂😂
Plagueis was strong but blind and ignorant. He didn’t see the writing on the wall when Maul was being dispatched by Sidious… it’s clear to see he was training maul to for apprenticeship not just a Sith assassin
My head cannon will always have Plagueis as the "fussy Jewish mother" type, among dark lords of the sith
"Eat! _Eat,_ you need to *EAT!* Look at you! The moment you declare yourself a Dark Lord, someone is just gonna pick you up like a stick and throw you in a hole-
*_YOU NEED TO EAT!_*
The dark side is _very_ taxing! You should have seen my *last* sith apprentice, now there was a force user with an appetite!"
Sidious: - growls - * grips fork *
*"Oh!* *_GO AHEAD!_* Embrace the dark side against me, _see what I do to you!"_
I think Sidious uses the force to cloud Plagueis mind or maybe the Dark Side of the force just saw Sidious as a natural progression and clouded Plagueis just enough for Sidious to catch him unaware and kill him.
@@aswinastrothat’s true.. also him getting his master shitfaced drunk while reciting his acceptance speech.. dude was cunning and evil as shit
Darth Atheism
The Plagueis book is just perfection. It'd still my favorite to this date and there have been plenty of solid ones....
Teneberus on CZcams: First.
Plagues: *sigh* This is why you are a fool.
You were wrong about the name Tenebrous. It says clearly in the Tenebrous Way that he gave himself the name. Then he saw Plagueis as a slave to possess from the beginning. Tenebrous Way makes it clear that was the plan from the beginning and he didn't train Plagueis properly. Wish that book had done a better job with Venamis, but I think Tenebrous had an informant tell subtext to sabotage the probe. The first sentence of the Tenebris Way indicated that dying felt good and had he known, he would've done it sooner. He wasn't angry, that was an act for Plagueis's benefit.
He did give himself the name Tenebrous though. It says it in one sentence of the Tenebrous Way. Plagueis is the one who thought that Tenebrous had many enemies. The scene was from his POV with his own prejudices just as Tenebrous had his. Here is proof of the name.
czcams.com/video/eEBY8y-6b94/video.html
Fast forward to 3:27 and you will see him talk about the dark and the name he had taken for his own. Plagueis meant the diseased one in mockery.This is partially Stover's fault for not bridging with the novel better.@@user-kx3tw1gh8j
🤔
Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Tenebrous the Annoying?
*Cantina band implodes*
He should have pursued a career as a musician in the Mos Isley Cantina
I find it very interesting that cannon (legends) explored Darth Tenebrous' ideology to it's logical conclusion in the existence of Vong.
Too bad so sad for Tenebrous he misinterpreted Plagueis quickly passing at the hands of his apprentice as Plagueis lived for hundreds of years before encountering Palpatine.
Yeah, from what I recall, I think he he said he was a score - give or take - over a hundred when he began training palpatine. Super intelligent and thorough. Yet, he failed to sense palpatine's relentless ambition. I really don't know why he thought they could be co-supreme chancellor. When the hell have the sith really been able to thrive as equalls.
Plagueis found Palpatine almost immediately after killing his master.
He didn't wait centuries to find a new apprentice (that would be incredibly reckless for a Sith Lord); it was one of his top priorities, and he found him quickly.
hundreds of years? I don't think it was that long, I think maybe around 50.
They just said Darth Tenebrous was supper pissed that Dark Plagueius risked both their lives just to kill him and gain higher rank alone.
To think if Tenebrous trained Sidious instead of Plagueis.
I recall another video talking about Plagueis killing his master, & you didn't explain in either one HOW Plagueis escaped. The following is from the Darth Plagueis Legends page on Wookiepedia:
After accessing the damaged ship, he realized that he could not repair it, nor could he use the Force to reach the oculus that led to the surface. So he set to work on removing the rubble from the ship using telekinesis and adding the rocks to a rubble pile he could climb to reach the surface. After he had completed his task, he entered the cockpit and retrieved his travel bag, which contained, among other effects, his lightsaber, a change of clothes, and a comlink, and also took Tenebrous's lightsaber and comlink.
A Bith Sith? That son of a Bith!
*Darth Smeagle the precious* 😂
To me the last couple of generations of Sith are misguided. Tenebrous and plagueis both fell further and further from the goals of the Rile of 2 sith. I think both deserved their fates
We all deserve our fates…
Misguided, short sighted, and arrogant but also the most powerful and knowledgeable of the rule of 2 era. I include Sidious in that as well
how come you called Darth Tenebris annoying in the title but then never explained what you meant by that?
Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Tenebrous the Smart? It's a Bith Legend. 🤫
I have no respirator and I must scream.
Tenebrous was weak...let us true Sith only praise his research and his apprentice. Sidious was taught well
Tenebrous definitely was not weak but I’ll let you continue to be wrong
Someone call?
Darth Tenebrous is similar to Darth Traya except the only difference is that Traya believes in the will of the Force which ironically is the reason why she wanted to cut off its connection to the galaxy.
The problem I have with the story of the Sith is just one thing. The Sith did not get the same time to dedicated training like the Jedi did. Ok in the story it works but really the Sith would not be able to keep up with the Jedi because it would be impossible to to dedicate the same amount of time as the Jedi.
@jacquesdemolay4516why it lose then
It’s interesting to use the word “generation” regarding the Sith during the years of two. As 1 generation = 1 individual; but reflects the scheme of gaining control of the galaxy through concentrating the dark side with 2 individuals in a shared objective through the generations.
Force Intolerance
😅😂😆
Why does Tenebrous look like that couple from South Park with asses as faces who think Kenny is their lost son when he moons the camera for the school yearbook? 😂
The title for this one hooked me immediately haha. Only thing I can think of is "The sith version of Obi Wan" like .... the troll sith
After that vision of the Chosen One to Tenebrous that’s when the Sith Grand Plan began to slowly unfold years before Sidious took the rank of Sith Master.
Satan:
"What can I say. Lord Tenebrous is having a Hell of a time now. A Hell of his own creation. So ... beautiful."
Perhaps Tenebrous' name should've been changed to Darth Dumbassus. He proved to be more shortsighted than he thought he was.
Im Thinking Tenebrous is the hidden Sith in the Acolyte, prior to him tutoring Plagueis
The kindest I could say of Tenebrous is that he seems a pale imitation to Emperor Vitiate.
Want tenembrouse one of the 3 sith that could use red force lightning? along darth nihilus and mortis god the son?
This video was excellent , really well done
Ah, at first this sounds like a bloody brilliant sadistic plan... _at first!_ But, unleashing some kinda pathogen like that would kinda be hard to control once it's released. (I'm making the assumption this force poison would be in an airborne form) Wouldn't they be taking a risk a little too big that they too _could_ be "cut"? {lab accident, stupidity, the wind changes direction ;) } I don't think this was _really_ well thought out! But, I guess as there are smart Sith, there must be dumb Sith. Addendum: I didn't like Plagueis at all, until I recently got back into the novels and now I think he's totally WIK! I neither like nor dislike Tenebrous from what I've read and heard, but I do think he didn't "get" how the force worked and therefore would never reach whatever his potential was.
Plagueis does point out what you said in his novel.
@@darthbane3937 oh good! I guess we think alike because I totally didn't remember that! Oops! Hope you have a swell evening.
Oh and Plagueis was worried about the will of the Force especially after the incident where the Force ran from him. He was worried that the Force might decide to boil his blood or something.@@evilchaosboy
@@darthbane3937 you know what? As soon as I'm finished book 3 of Aftermath, I'm going to re-read Plagueis! thanks, it seems I have to work on my reading retention or slow down on my consumption!
Ah, he got golden wind requiemed. That's rough.
My head cannon will always have Plagueis as the "fussy Jewish mother" type, among dark lords of the sith
"Eat! _Eat,_ you need to *EAT!* Look at you! The moment you declare yourself a Dark Lord, someone is just gonna pick you up like a stick and throw you in a hole-
*_YOU NEED TO EAT!_*
The dark side is _very_ taxing! You should have seen my *last* sith apprentice, now there was a force user with an appetite!"
Sidious: - growls - * grips fork *
*"Oh!* *_GO AHEAD!_* Embrace the dark side against me, _see what I do to you!"_
What’s the background ost
Seperate from the force...Are you sure they are not part of Kreia's faction?
And do they have any way to protect themself from their own bioweapon
Seems like he would get along well with Darth Kreia.
I wonder how Tenebrous and Kreia would get along.
I like how all the artist renditions of Tenebrous have him wearing a respirator. He never wore one. The only time he wore one is when he went to the planet of Bal'demnic and go into a cave testing Cortosis ore. Other than that he didn’t wear one. Darth Plagueis didn’t wear one until about 30 years before his death because of a assassination attempt. Artist need to stop making Sith Lords with respirators….They all didn’t need them!
The Rule of 2 was idiotic,and I'll die on that hill
There was too many ways it could have fallen apart:
1.Natural or mechanical accidents like starship explosions killing both.
2. Weaker apprentices supplanting stronger masters though schemes and backstabbing.
3. Recently inaugurated Master dying before they have a chance of selecting new apprentice.
Only way for it to make sense, is that Dark Side will personally provide some sort of "providence" to 2 Sith, because there are only two Sith to embody it.
Lucas was probably forced into it, because he didn't have a ton of other Sith in A New Hope and the OT. The universe was still being built out, so rule of 2 happened due to writing yourself in a corner
I have no mouth, and I must scream.
"Most evil Sith Lord to ever life" is a HUGE claim. I'm ready for this.
i love darth tenebrous dawg, thank you so much for making this. thank you.
This one is missing something crucial. A goal. A reason for being. How insignificant of a being must you be to not choose one?
He got connections in the trade federation using his own work , fighting style - also vision and ideas to win his fights . He is wanted men in the galaxy who can defend himself and he is protected by sith code.
Little reminder that the cantina band members were the same species as Tenebrous.
what a tragic fate to end up with
Bro was singing beck beck beck beck bedeck beck
Beck beckbeck bedeck beeeeeck beck beck
Darth Tenebrous was a fool and deserved his fate.
I,m not sure he is apparently quite smart!!
Nice Elison reference
I’ve read the book numerous times , there was a space port on the planet 🌎 why on gods green earth did Tenabrus think his highly trained incredibly strong apprentice would not make it to the space port ?
Is Lord Tenebrous cosidered to be a Sith Bith, a Bith Sith, or both...(perhaps a Bith Sith Bith or Sith Bith Sith)?
He should’ve stuck with the saxophone.
Neither Tenebrous nor Plagueis were anything but chodes, though. Disrespecting the dark side, which is enabling you to chase your ambitions, is like a famous guitarists who hates string instruments. It’s also amusing that they were so proud of their technological terrors.
Sidious was at least a return to the whole point of being Sith.
Good advertisement for studying the Light Side
You mean Darth Raspberry? Who only communicates with fart noises?
Where does it tell the story of Tenebrous mating with the Mune female? I don't remember that from the Plagueis novel
His training probably consisted of being called "Butt Head" to make him angry.
Thankfully he found a few mates and formed a band on Tatooine. Phew.
Tenebrous looks like he'd speak with a pplllttt lisp! 😂
Such a great book, the audible version is really great
So...... Where is he essentially? I mean after he slipped out of Plagueis' body, he must've ended up somewhere? Or have these "Maxichlorians" just dissipated by now, making him essentially a Force ghost? Still, where?
Tenebrous is one of my favorite sith this for covering him!
12:22 He has no mouth, and he must scream.
To be fair if my head looked like a mushroom tip id be annoying and pissed too😂
I'm surprised that people have understood the whole thing with plagus about discovering how to cheat death I don't believe that plagueis did that I believe city is just lied to Anakin because it was something he could exploit because Anakin was worrying about padme dying so what would be the thing that could get him to come over save her life plagueis didn't cheat death he will obviously but he didn't ever learn either because if he had the sidious would know how to do that and episode 9 doesn't count
12:20 I see what you did there. Nice shout out lol
Well hello there.
Decades? Or even centuries? Pleeeeease, make it make sense. Tenebrous had a Twi'lek Master. For how long? Make master Mundi's "millenium" statement be the dumbest statement ever uttered. I am hearing that there was a huge gap of time between Bane and Tenebrous's Master. Then I'm hearing that Tenebrous schemed to have Plagueis birthed. Plagueis was HOW old when Palpatine killed him?
The truth is there were plenty of Sith during that fabled millennium, wasn't there? They just laid low and sometimes never got to amount to anything because they couldn't contain their greed, right?
Tenebrous was important to the Sith Plans for sure. But that's about all I see for him.
Darth Tenebrous must of had it rough growing up at the sith academy
Sounds like Rick Sanchez as a Sith
Ay bada sing baching bun boska jow 😢😢
Rada henko bachingbo
I need the first music.
Another thing Disney should be doing is giving us what we want I would like a movie about him
And why did so many sith require a breathing apparatus?
I don't understand, Lord tenebrous intended to move his own conscience to the future to be born chosen one. But he only could do it from his own body to the chosen one body ? He couldn't move his conscience from someone's body to an other ? (like from his body, to plagueis, then to the chosen one ?)
he could have just merged with palpatine too
Tenebrous out here trying to synthesize Jedi-19.
Sith deny themselves relationships they form attachments to the one seeking to kill them they are taught to see apprentice as tools but die trying to be their friend when that explosion occurred he should of only shielded himself if plaguis was worthy he would of protected himself
