Serving You, Serving Me
Sith Task
Sith Task
From: Darth VéhemenTo: Powerbase
Subject: Worthy Servants
Any Sith can command fodder. A slave obeys through fear. A conscript serves through obligation. Such followers are commonplace and easily replaced. A Sith of true vision is measured not simply by the volume of servants they command, but by the quality of those who follow them.
It is therefore my will that each of you recruit a single servant to your growing powerbase.
Choose carefully. This is not to be a disposable lackey, but an individual of genuine talent and purpose whose service reflects your own philosophy and ambitions. I care less for what they are than why they have chosen to follow you.
Upon securing their loyalty, prepare a dossier detailing who they are, how they entered your service and the value they bring to your powerbase. Your choice will reveal far more about your potential than any duel or battlefield victory.
If any of your new servants appeal, I might take them into my service in exchange in return for a fair reward for the individual who found them.
Demonstrate that you are worthy of being followed. The one who recruits the best servant will be rewarded.

To decide the quality of servant you recruit, you can roll 1D10 in the #serving-you-serving-me channel on Discord and use the table below to resolve that roll, taking into account any modifiers. If you are unhappy with the outcome of your roll, each Lord may grant one re-roll to a Sith they favour.
The roll table below is intended to provide a sense of the calibre of individual your Sith is able to recruit. It is a guide rather than an exhaustive list, so the examples given should be treated as inspiration rather than strict limitations.
My recommendation is to make your roll first, then develop a concept that fits within that level of talent and influence. If you're unsure whether your idea is appropriate, simply post your dossier below in spoiler tags. I'll review it and let you know if it needs to be adjusted before it's considered final.
Once you have established the sort of servant your character would recruit, your next step would be to arrange something to tell us how this newfound relationship was formed. Ideally this should be underpinned by meaningful roleplay, but a well written story is acceptable too.
Whatever the case you should aim to create a dossier with a nice picture to tell us who your new servant is. This would be an in-character submission, so limit the scope of the dossier to what would be shared with the Dark Lord.

Roll Table
D10 | Calibre | Examples |
|---|---|---|
1 | Unproven | Street urchin, refugee, labourer, petty thief, untrained drifter. Little skill, but perhaps potential. |
2 | Novice | Junior clerk, farmhand, apprentice mechanic, dockworker, newly trained technician. Competent at basic work. |
3 | Capable | Gang member, security guard, shuttle pilot, shopkeeper, junior medic, experienced artisan. Dependable but unremarkable. |
4 | Professional | Soldier, investigator, engineer, accountant, qualified doctor, merchant captain, skilled technician. Established in their field. |
5 | Veteran | Mercenary, experienced surgeon, respected officer, intelligence analyst, master craftsman, seasoned explorer. Proven through years of success. |
6 | Specialist | Renowned slicer, gifted diplomat, accomplished alchemist's assistant, celebrated architect, elite pilot, successful industrialist. Rare expertise. |
7 | Elite | Special forces veteran, famous physician, master engineer, influential noble retainer, renowned artist, exceptional strategist. Among the best locally. |
8 | Exceptional | Deadly assassin, celebrated beauty or socialite, master majordomo, famous explorer, wealthy financier, highly connected information broker. Individuals of considerable reputation. |
9 | Remarkable | Sector-famous genius, legendary bounty hunter, former Moff's advisor, industrial magnate, unrivalled duellist (non-Force), criminal kingpin. Figures whose names carry weight. |
10 | Extraordinary | One-in-a-million talent. The sort of individual powerful Lords actively compete to recruit: an unparalleled administrator, master spy, peerless surgeon, unmatched assassin, legendary companion or cultural icon - at least within the Dominion. |

- This task will run until 03/09/26.
- It's open to all Sith characters up to the rank of Sith Prime.
- Vehemen will select one individual to reward materially.
- This reward will be based on the dossier you post for your characters new servant.
- The reward will be based on your characters Power rating.
- Should he choose to poach your new lackey, you will receive some form of compensation relative to their value.
- The primary goal here is to encourage people to create flavourful characters for their powerbase and stories for how they recruited them. But perhaps more than this, some novel encounters in-game.
