can a sith lord be a woman?

[hierogrammate]

I just wanna point out that I was in the USMC and if I called a female officer a "sir" I would get my butt whooped. The correct title is ma'am

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

*lol* I bet...

 

I've never been in the military, so I find these anecdotes interesting. I knew about the less formal "ma'am," and have heard about "sir" a few times. Does it depends on the branch you're serving then? Or do you have to live in the Star Trek universe to call everyone "sir"?

 

OOT: that reminds me the impression I got when watching ST:TNG (oh, ages and ages ago) about the way it looked as if they wanted to "neutralize" ("sanitize"?) genders a bit in that version of the future... I mean, I couldn't even see any difference on the way men and women walked, talked, or their mannerisms (actors' movements looked stiff/forced at times). I didn't feel that straightjacket in, say, Babylon 5. I don't know. Maybe I'm taking too many Mandalorian stims, nevermind...

[Pidesco]

Everyone seems to be missing the point. A much more interesting question would be whether a man can be a Sith Queen.

[Dark_Raven]

The only Sith Lords that I know of are female.

[Darth_Onivega]

Yes the term Sith Lord applies to woman aswell

Darth Traya, the Lady of Betrayal would be a example

[Eddo36]

Why not Lord of Betrayal?

[DAWUSS]

I guess it's a generic term. Also considering that female Darths have been a minority I guess it's never been much of an issue

[Sturm]

this has a similarity

 

in school usually we call the female teacher "miss" and the male teacher "sir" but then there is different heirarchy there. look at darth treya she is a "Sith Lord"

 

relating to that post where you would call a female commanding officer "sir" well remember that drunken sith woman on manaan, i didnt call her "sir" for that matter, i didnt call any sith officer sir! im lord revan, im the top dog of the sith!

Regardless, you don't call female officers sir in the US and British military. You call them ma'am.

 

Unless you're looking for a foot up your behind.

Im sure for the sake of avoiding the "sexism" word, female Sith Lords are allowed. I remember in Jedi Knight 3: Jedi Academy wasnt the main villan a female Sith Lord (well the title she adopts anyway!)

[Dark_Raven]

An evil female as a sith lord would be a great thing. Great indeed.

[aerowars617]

In general context, the female of a Lord is a Lady, but "Sith Lady" just sounds too cute for such a violent person

tavion? i didnt think she was a sith lord i thought she was just a renegade jedi (although i havent completed JK:JO2, or played the first so i dont really know) all she seemed to me was, a dark jedi with a force scepter

[Canaan Aphettu]

I've been thinking recently, and I think we need a strong, definite female Sith. Never mind Kreia, she doesn't count. And the whole "Revan is a woman sometimes" doesn't work either. We need a really cool, evil woman.

 

I've always liked the term Sith Empress myself, but it only really works if she's in charge of an Empire.

In jedi academy?!?

 

The main villain of jedi academy was the ghost of Marka Ragnos, who certainly was never a woman. Speaking of KotOR, he was one of the dark lord of the Sith Empire, which are the ancestors of the "true" Sith...

Marka Ragnos was the guy that the sith woman (Tavion) was trying to ressurect, and when she does ressurect him (LS), you battle a super Tavion whom Ragnos "occupies", so technically its still a woman (with a mans soul ).

I only mentioned Jedi Academy as it shows that the main Villan in command of the sith was a woman. I suppose you could think of Ragnos as a Sauron from Lord of the Rings, who dosnt get involved with battle plannings, just merely waiting there to be ressurected :cool: And you could compare Tavion to Sauruman, ordering all the Orcks on the ground (only Tavion isnt posessed by Ragnos in the early stages, but merely wants to bring about the return of the sith, and she thinks she can do this by bringing back Marka Ragnos).

Only Sw game that I would choose DS ending: JK3

 

It was so much better as DS. First let Disciples of Ragnos and Jedi fight against each other, and then come and pwn survivors! Not to mention fight against Katarn was cool.

 

And thee could've been sequel, how Katarn chases Jaden and renews him to LS

Not to mention the whole concept of fighting the soule of a resurrected ancient sith lord that has possesed another body is *really* lame.

[Xard]

Agreed. Heavily agreed. That is so fricking lame.

That gives me flashbacks to Ghostbusters:

 

Sigourney Weaver: "I want you inside me!"

 

Bill Murray: "I can't. It sounds like there are at least two people in there already - it might be crowded..."

Well, if we want female Sith, we need look no further than Lady Lumiya, who was never possessed by some ancient spirit or some such (that we know of...). And she is a much greater enemy of Luke Skywalker than Tavion could ever be.

[DAWUSS]

We need a female Sith Lord with a great body that'll make everyone forget about Bastila

yeah JKJA was good, it would be better if it was set in an OR setting, like a jedi in the mandalorian wars i really hate that 'after the empire' era, so many wanabees trying to take over

It isn't about body. It is about accent

 

Yeah. And that Ross Pennin...

 

"Our masters are holding us back blaa blaa blaa...I'll be GREAT jedi blaa blaa blaa...I'm better than you Jaden blaa blaa blaa...I won ya blaa blaa blaa"

 

Duh. And that fricking annpoying WHINEY voice. Seriously, Carth is nothing compared to Rosh.

[Sturm]

thats why i couldnt resist killing rosh pennin

 

"did i win the training?"

 

"hey jaden EAT THIS! *turns on jedi training droid*" (ellaboration)

 

" im a better jedi then you!"

 

"they are holding us back!"

 

"this is too easy!"

 

i had pleasure killing him

[Bulgarian Jedi]

The cinematic where you can kill Rosh wasn't bloody and brutal enough.

But fighting him several levels earlier was pleasing.
