Once you're ready, {{s|Sith Academy Entrance|Yuthura Ban}} takes you to meet the academy's Master, Uthar Wynn. He addresses you and other prospective students in the hub of the academy:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Greetings, prospective students. It appears we have a late entry. Who do you bring before me, Yuthura? A young human, bristling with the Force?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|A human that has had some training, it seems, Master Uthar. Very promising, I think.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Shaardan:|[[../Dreshdae#Shaardan|Promising? Hmmph. That one's not worthy to lick spit off your shoes, master.]]}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|[[../Dreshdae#Lashowe|I met this one in the colony... unworthy, if you ask me.]]}}
|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|That I'll judge for myself, thank you. Tell me, human... what do you know of the ways of the Sith? What preconceptions has your mind been polluted with?|C=5}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|I've killed too many Sith to have preconceptions about them.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|I don't know anything about the Sith, to tell the truth.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|I know that the Sith are powerful. A force to be reckoned with.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|The Sith are evil and have surrendered themselves to the temptation and corruption of their power.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||5.|The Sith do what they want and pay no heed to duty or discipline.|W=20%}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Most impressive, if it is true. Those who were too weak to stand against you deserved their fate, so expect no retribution from us. There is much you can learn from the Sith, and we from you.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|An honest if evasive answer. Likely it is more true than you realize. Allow me to speak of the deeper matters at hand.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|A diplomatic answer, if not the core of the matter. Our power is obvious. The question in truth goes much deeper than the surface.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|An honest answer, and one I would expect from anyone who has been exposed to those sad relics amongst the Jedi. As always, young human, the truth is not quite so simple.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Untrue. The Force demands discipline from all who use it, and the Sith demand duty. The truth goes far beyond such a superficial evaluation.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|The Jedi equate the light with goodness and strength and the dark with weakness and evil. That is their tradition and it is truly no surprise that they cling to it for comfort. We, however, do not treat the Force as a burden. We treat it as a gift, a thing to be celebrated. We use it to acquire power over others... and why should we not? Because the Jedi say we should not? We are as the Force is meant to be. The Jedi would hide that from you... they would tell you the dark side is too quick, too easy, all so that they need never challenge the passions that lie within them. Joining with us means realizing your true potential. It means not stifling yourself solely for the sake of hide-bound shamans and their antiquated notion of order. Be what you were meant to be.|C=5}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|What say you, Lashowe? Are you ready to learn the secrets of the dark side? Dare you?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|I dare, Master Uthar! I am ready!}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Brash and fiery, as expected. Turn that passion to your advantage, child. What of you, Mekel? Are you ready?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Mekel:|I am, Master. More than ready.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|I sense much anger within you, young one. That is good. That will provide you power. And Shaardan... what of you?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Shaardan:|I am always ready!}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|I see. You had best gather your wits for the trial ahead, boy, or you will not last. And you, young human? Does this interest you? Are you ready to learn more of what I speak?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|And what of my companions?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Your slaves? They are irrelevant. They may accompany you, so long as they do not interfere with us or with your training. Are you ready or not, young one?}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|I am ready to learn more.|C=2}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|I don't know...}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|But... power without consideration of morality is a weakness.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Are you? I can see into your heart, young human, and I see the dark kernel that is there. If it is ready to sprout remains to be seen.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|And so shall it be.|W=20%|B=dark}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|An honest answer. You will make little progress, however, if you do not come to learn that any opportunity, even an unsure one, must be snatched.|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Ha ha ha! You are brave to argue, young one. I have met few students who would speak so openly to me. Ask yourself first what this 'morality' is? How is it created? Who does it benefit? Where do your notions of 'good' and 'evil' come from? You may come to the realization that morality is but an obstacle to overcome... or not. The discovery is yours to make, should you be ready.|W=40%}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Now, then. All of you five recruits have shown a degree of facility with the Force... you all have the potential to become true Sith. Only one of you, however, will succeed. The one who succeeds will be admitted to the academy as a full Sith. All others must wait until next year and try again... if you survive. My pupil, Yuthura, shall be your teacher and master while you attempt to prove yourselves. Heed her words.|C=4}}
|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:| As Master Uthar said, none of you are true Sith *yet*. For that to occur, one of you must do enough of worth... gain enough prestige... to be selected. What is an act of worth? You must learn that for yourselves. Remember that you are competitors, here... fight for your destiny, or go home.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|If you wish to gain a lead over your competitors, the first of you to learn the Code of the Sith and tell me of it will be rewarded. The rest is for you to discover. Welcome to the dark side, my children... your one chance at true greatness lies here.}}

{{KotOR/Journal|The Way of the Sith|You have managed to enter the Sith academy as a hopeful vying with several others to become the one who will be finally admitted as a full Sith.

'''This is a small identification card marking you as a student within the Sith monastery on Korriban. It will allow you to come and go as you wish.'''

You're taken to your {{s|Sith Academy|Bedroom}} to the northwest of the academy's hub, where Uthar remains, kneeling to meditate. Once you've spoken to your instructor [[../Sith Academy#Star Map: Korriban|Yuthura Ban]], you're free to return and ask how you gain prestige:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|You wish to know more about me, do you? And why would I indulge your idle curiosity? Will we be good friends, you think? I strived many years to hone my power until I was able to drive out my predecessor and rule the academy. If you are smart, you will aim to do the same, or better. There is nothing else that you need to know. Do not ask again, young one.}}

Although he doesn't go into specifics, you can ask around or simply explore the academy and the valley and its tombs beyond to the north to activate and complete quests, before returning to report to him and gain prestige and experience:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Go, now... you have done well, but you have not impressed me enough to declare you the victor. I have matters to attend to.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Journal|The Way of the Sith|You have managed to gain some prestige, impressing Master Uthar, but it is not yet enough for him to declare you the victor in your contest with the others. Speak to Yuthura or continue to look around the academy and the Valley of the Dark Lords to find ways to curry favor with Master Uthar.}}
|}

Five prestige points need to be gained to be declared the victor, worthy of taking the final test: once this has occurred, you cannot report back for more prestige (and experience). Only four or five of these nine quests need to be completed, so there's no need for a light side character to move closer to the dark side of the Force.

However, some of these quests cannot be completed once you've proven yourself worthy: Yuthura Ban can no longer be poisoned and neither can Master Uthar unless you've already received the device from Yuthura, and she can no longer instruct you in the Code of the Sith; Lashowe can no longer be convinced to meet in the valley; and once you've been take to the tomb of Naga Sadow, you may no longer be able to speak to the doubting Sith Kel Algwinn or interrogate the Mandalorian prisoner about the weapons cache, and the tombs of Ajunta Pall and Tulak Hord will be locked if you haven't already found the sword of Ajunta Pall and the hermit in the hills respectively.

Once you've gained the necessary prestige:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|You have impressed me enough, by my estimation, to become a Sith in full. Congratulations, young one... you have bested the others quite completely. You have but one final test which you must take, and this requires us to travel to the tomb of Naga Sadow in the Valley of the Dark Lords. I would advise you to be rested and equipped before we leave. Return to your quarters now and seek me out in the morning. When you return, make sure that you have all that you will need... for you will face your test alone. Go, and may the Force serve you well.}}
|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Journal|The Way of the Sith|Master Uthar has been impressed enough to declare you worthy of taking the final test at the tomb of Naga Sadow. He has given you one night to rest up and prepare. When you are ready, return to him and he will bring you to the tomb.}}
|-
{{KotOR/XP|Act|#=210|Declared worthy of taking the final test at the tomb of Naga Sadow}}

You're returned to your {{s|Sith Academy|Bedroom}} once again, and some of the Sith may comment on your victory:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|What are you doing here? Go back to Uthar and tell him you're ready to take your final test! Our moment is at hand, go!}}

|}

[[../Sith Academy#Rogue Droid|Sith Student]]:

; Hmm. So you got enough prestige to win out, I hear. We'll just see if you make it through your final test.

When you're ready, return to speak to Master Uthar:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|So, then. I take it you are ready to travel to the tomb of Naga Sadow? Your final test should not be delayed.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|What is this tomb of Naga Sadow?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|It is a tomb that belonged to an ancient Sith Lord... the greatest of Korriban's Sith Lords, in fact. It is there that your test is performed.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|What is this final test?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|I will tell you the details when we are there, young one. You will, however, fight for your life... that is why I suggest you be in sufficient health.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|I'm not ready just yet.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Then return when you are. Do not delay overly long, young one.}}
|}

|}

You're taken to the tomb of Naga Sadow by yourself, so before you tell him you're ready to go you may want to take any party members north to the door to the {{s|Sith Academy|Valley}} and leave them there by entering Solo mode before returning, so they can better support you in case you have to fight your way back through the academy upon your return (otherwise they remain in the hub of the academy).

===Bedroom===
Your bedroom is at the end of a corridor to the northwest of the academy's hub. There's a footlocker by your bed, in the northwest corner:

===Star Map: Korriban===
The corridor exits your bedroom to the southeast. As you travel south you'll pass your instructor Yuthura Ban standing at the foot of her own bed on the right, to the west. She speaks to you:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Absolutely. By my estimation, you are far more likely to achieve the prestige necessary to join the Sith than any of the others. As a matter of fact, I am so certain of that that I'm willing to offer you an opportunity of the once-in-a-lifetime variety. Would you like to hear it?|C=3}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Not really. Oh, don't worry... what I have in mind will benefit us both, you can be sure of that.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|'Yet' being the operative term. As I said, you have my utmost confidence.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|As I said, you're no doubt going to be the one whom Uthar chooses to become a Sith. With my help, of course. Once that occurs, he will take you into the Valley of the Dark Lords to the tomb of Naga Sadow to administer the final test. There you and I will be alone with him. The perfect time to, shall we say, arrange for a change in the academy's leadership?|C=3}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|I suppose you could do that. Even the hint of betrayal from his pupil and Uthar would move to eliminate me. But this is a very good opportunity for you... you can start off your Sith career as the right hand of the head of the academy: me. Uthar will not offer you that. Do you believe Uthar would not be aware of this? He would quickly figure out what you have to gain by betraying him... and would never believe someone would pass that up.

If you want to know more about these ruins on the surface, she confirms you can only gain entrance to the tomb of Naga Sadow in the company of Master Uthar, so even as a light side character you must prove your worth to him by gaining prestige to be admitted as a full Sith:

If you ask her to tell you about herself she'll mention she was from Sleheyron, and if you return it's easy to persuade her you'd like to know more about her:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|About myself? I am originally from Sleheyron, if you must know. I was a slave to a cruel master, Omeesh the Hutt. I am sure you don't need to know more.}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|[Success] I... see. Very well. I suppose there's no harm in the tale. As I said, I was originally a slave to one of the Hutts. The Hutts control everything on Sleheyron, and a slave is nothing to them. I was determined not to be 'nothing'. One night when the drunken worm had me alone in his chambers I stabbed him and escaped the compound. I stole onto a cargo ship and was not discovered by the crew until they reached the next system. They left me for dead on a desolate planetoid, alone... but that was fine by me. I was glad to be anywhere other than Sleheyron. It was not luck that I was eventually rescued, of course. The Force was strong with me, though I didn't know that at the time. Not until the Jedi told me, that is.}}

Once she's told her tale, she considers you her friend:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Greetings, my friend. *chuckle* I do rather enjoy saying that.}}
|}

Befriending her gives you the opportunity to persuade her to leave the academy later... or move even closer to the dark side of the Force if you turn on her first...

====Double-Double-Cross====
A Sith guard patrols the corridors to the west of the academy's hub:

; Greetings, Student.

Two [[../Sith Academy#Rogue Droid|Sith students]] wander the main corridor between the east and west ends of the academy, and their comments may shed some light on how you might gain prestige; Hijata and two other Sith students standing on the southeast side of the academy's hub do likewise. Uthar Wynn kneels in the center, meditating:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|I have something to tell you about Yuthura...}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Oh? What is my apprentice up to now?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|Nothing. I shouldn't have brought it up.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|I see. Well, then... should you change your mind... you know where to come, yes?}}
|}

Otherwise:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|She wants me to help her kill you at the final trial.|C=2}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|I see. It is good that you have come to me with this information, young one. It is a bit... ironic... that Yuthura has begun her plotting. I have been aware of her growing ambitions for some time, and had in fact already decided to remove her. Normally, the one who gains the most prestige would engage in a final trial... two of the students would fight. This time it will be Yuthura who battles, though she does not know it. Perhaps it will be you who combats her? Yes... perhaps so. This is what you can do. Give this pad to Adrenas... he will put some poison in her bath. This will weaken Yuthura for that final test, making her an easy target. Rather generous of me, don't you think?|C=2}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Jolee||Hm. This should be interesting.|W=50%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||I'd love to know what's going on in that tricky mind of yours.|W=50%}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Journal|The Double-Double-Cross|Master Uthar has co-opted you into his own plan to turn the tables around on Yuthura.

'''This datapad contains coded instructions from Master Uthar to someone by the name of Adrenas. You are not sure what the instructions detail, save that he requires the chamberlain to go to Dreshdae to gather the ingredients.'''

If you don't tell him about Yuthura's plot to overthrow him, then he'll turn on you even if you side with him against her. However, doing so doesn't prevent you from siding with Yuthura, and surprisingly neither does poisoning her. If you speak to him again before gaining enough prestige to be declared worthy of taking the final test:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Uthar Wynn:|Do not forget our agreement regarding Yuthura's treachery. We shall put her in her place... should you reach the final test, that is.}}
|}

Adrenas can be found standing with Tariga and a female Sith teacher in the northeast corner of the north hall exiting to the {{s|Sith Academy|Valley}}, and once you've asked who he is you can tell him Master Uthar gave you this datapad for him:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Adrenas:|He did? Allow me to see that for a moment... Ah, yes, I see. I will do as Master Uthar requests, of course. Thank you for bringing this to me.|C=2}}
|-
{{KotOR/Journal|The Double-Double-Cross|Master Uthar's datapad has been turned over to Adrenas. This means that when (and if) you go to the final test at the tomb of Naga Sadow, Yuthura will be poisoned and weak enough to be easily defeated.|C=2}}

{{KotOR/Container|Adrenas|

|}

At this point, you can still side with either of them (or neither). However, if you tell Yuthura about Uthar's plan then once again he'll turn on you even if you side with him against her:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|I have some news about Uthar...}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|What? What's happened? Our plan is still intact, I hope.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|It's nothing. Our plan is fine.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Good. Let's keep it that way.}}
|}

Otherwise:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|He plans to have me fight you in the final test.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Ahhh. How very clever of him. Normally you would face some other student in the tomb, preferably one of the failed ones. Obviously Uthar has decided to get rid of me. But why...? Did you say something to him?}}
|}

|}

You need to be moderately persuasive to successfully lie about saying something to him, although the outcome is the same as telling the truth or failing:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|In the end, it works out better that it is only the two of us in the tomb with him. So long as we refuse to fight. Is there anything else I should know?|C=3}}
|}

If you still have Master Uthar's Sith datapad, you can tell her that he wants her poisoned:

{| {{prettytable}}

In for a penny, in for a pound: if you've told her about Uthar's plan, then you might as well poison him as well. Uthar Wynn's room is at the west end of the main corridor running the length of the academy. The door is in the south wall:

Yuthura's passcard opens the door so that using {{s|Skills|Security}} isn’t necessary to unlock it. His bed is at the west end of the room:

===Doubting Sith===
To the south of your {{s|Sith Academy|Bedroom}} and across the main corridor connecting the east and west ends of the academy, Kel Algwinn kneels to meditate at the foot of his bed to the left, on the east side. The corridor to the south turns east into an empty bedroom, where there's a locked footlocker by the bed, in the northeast corner:

After asking if he knows anything about the Code of the Sith, you can provoke him to attack you:

{{KotOR/Journal|A Doubting Sith|You have encountered a student by the name of Kel Algwinn, an unusual student at the Sith academy who confessed to you that he has strong feelings of doubt that this is the appropriate place for him to be.

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Kel Algwinn:|Please don't tell anyone what I told you. They would tell me to leave... or worse.|C=2}}

If you ask Yuthura if she knows a student named Kel, she advises you to betray him if you know something:

{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|Do you know a student named Kel?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Yes... vaguely. The boy burdens himself with doubts and anxieties. It is sad to watch, really, for he does possess a certain flair with the Force. Kel will not survive long. Someone will betray him soon enough, and he will be dead. If you are smart and you know something, that person should be you.}}

|}

If you need to give [[../Sith Academy#Aiding Lashowe|Lashowe]] a lead before she'll agree to work together, you can now tell her she could go and talk to Kel Algwinn:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|He's... one of the students? Yes, I've met the sniveler. I think I know where you're going with this... good, yes, I accept.}}

{{KotOR/Journal|A Doubting Sith|You told Lashowe of Kel Algwinn's doubts about remaining in the Sith academy. There is little reason to believe that she would hesitate to turn such information over to Master Uthar. You will probably not be seeing Kel Algwinn again.}}

However, this isn't the only lead you can give her and it prevents you from gaining prestige by telling Master Uthar:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

|-
{{KotOR/Journal|The Code of the Sith|Yuthura has instructed you on the Code of the Sith. Master Uthar already stated the the first hopeful to come to him with full knowledge of the Code could gain prestige. If you take it to him, make sure you remember it well.}}
|-
{{KotOR/XP|Act|#=125|Instructed on the Code of the Sith}}
|}

Experience is received each time you ask about the Code of the Sith, which can be exploited to [[../Experience#Level up|level up]] (although this is neither necessary nor recommended). You can ask her to explain each line, although this is unnecessary:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|'Peace is a lie, there is only passion'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|The Jedi would have you believe that peace is a desirable goal. That peace of the spirit is the way the Force is mastered, that a lack of conflict betters man. We know different. It is our passion... our hate and our desire... that fuels the Force. It is conflict that improves the lot of civilization and single being both. Conflict forces one to better oneself. It forces change, growth, adaption... evolution... or death. These are not our laws, but the universe's. Without conflict you have only stagnation.}}
|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|'Through passion, I gain strength'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|What fuels your power with the Force but your passion? The stronger, darker emotions. Anger, hatred, fear... these passions empower us.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|What about love?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Love is more dangerous than all those things. Love leads to anger and hatred more often that not... but it also leads to mercy, which is far worse. That, however, is a lesson for another time.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|Those seem like awfully negative passions.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|Negative? Compared to what? What keeps even the most rudimentary creature alive? Fear to run, anger to fight... without it a creature would most surely die.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|Are you saying we aren't anything more than a rudimentary creature?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|We are far more than them, perhaps, but in some ways we are little different. To think us creatures beyond the need of simple passions is a delusion.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|The Jedi say the opposite. How can both be right?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|The Force gives us all power, even the Jedi. It is our mastery of our passion that gives us the strength they lack.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|I see.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|It is our goal to be stronger, to achieve our potential and not rest upon our laurels. We are the seekers, not the shepherds.}}
|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|'Through strength, I gain power'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|The stronger you become in the Force, the more power you will achieve. But always must you fight for your power. Without strife, your victory has no meaning. Without strife, you do not advance. Without strife, there is only stagnation.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|'Through power, I gain victory'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|How many sorts of victories can you imagine? Peaceful victory? Victory by sacrifice? A truce, an achievement? Unless the victory is achieved by demonstrating that your power is superior, it is only an illusion. Temporary at best. We seek more.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||5.|'Through victory, my chains are broken'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|This... has been argued over, and often. The chains represent our restrictions, both those placed upon us and those we place upon ourselves. Ultimately the goal of any Sith is to free herself from such restrictions. In a way, it is so we may do whatever we wish... but it is much more than that. One who has freed themselves from all restrictions has reached perfection. Their potential fulfilled. Perfect strength, perfect power, perfect destiny. Imagine it. That is our ideal, at any rate. It is said in Sith legend that the 'Sith'ari'... the perfect being... will one day lead us. But perhaps that is just a legend.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|You don't think the Sith'ari can exist?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|I... wonder what a being would be like. The legends say the Sith'ari will destroy us... and make us stronger than ever. But perhaps that is just a legend. Perfection is... a goal, I think, rather than a state of being. The Jedi would argue that, no doubt.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||6.|'The Force shall free me'?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Yuthura Ban:|The Force is our servant and our master. Our teacher and our companion. A weapon and a tool. Know it and you know the universe. Master it and you master the universe. Strive for perfection and the Force shall reward you.}}
|}

No doubt they have not gotten far and are simply in hiding... we just do not know where, exactly. If you were to locate them and carry out Uthar's order, I am sure he would be most appreciative.

The male Sith teacher standing with the [[../Sith Academy#Sword of Ajunta Pall|Sith student]] on the northeast side of the academy's hub, or in the northwest corner of the hall to the {{s|Sith Academy|Valley}}, can also tell you about the renegade Sith students:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|May the Force serve you well.}}

Otherwise:

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|Ah. Let me tell you what I can, then. A group of students were ordered to perform executions on civilians within the colony. They refused to carry out the orders. Master Uthar naturally ordered them killed... but they fled before this could take place. If one could carry out Uthar's order, it would be worth considerable prestige. There are five of them, if I remember... and they cannot be far, as they have no method to leave the planet. Likely hiding in the hills on the surface.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|Those are the ones. It seems you have already heard of them. There is little more I can tell you, then. Should you locate their hiding place, you would gain considerable prestige, I am sure.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|Now if you will excuse me, I must return to my studies.|C=2}}
|}

After dealing with the renegade students and returning to Master Uthar:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|I understand that our renegade students have been dealt with... and that you are responsible for that. Congratulations.}}
|}

|}

However, slicing the console in the [[../Sith Academy#Dueling Room|dueling room]] at the east end of the academy and hacking into its datafiles is the most informative:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Journal|Renegade Sith|You have been told about some renegade Sith students who disobeyed a direct order given by Master Uthar to execute civilians.

The {{s|Shyrack Caves|Renegade Sith}} can be found in the southernmost tunnel of the Shyrack caves, [[../Valley of Dark Lords#Caves|the entrance to which]] is in the west wall of the Valley of Dark Lords upon exiting the academy to the north (there's a flock of shyrack outside, so it's hard to miss).

If you return with the sword, or after turning it over to Uthar Wynn:

Unsurprisingly, the sword of Ajunta Pall can be found in the [[../Tomb of Ajunta Pall/]], in the southeast corner of the Valley of Dark Lords.

===Rogue Droid===
Although this quest cannot be activated by speaking to anyone in the academy, some of the Sith students may comment on it:

{{KotOR/Hide|Sith Student}}

{| {{prettytable}}
|
; Sorry, I don't have time to speak. My training awaits.

; You aren't even a full Sith. Don't bother me.

; Get out of my way. I don't have time to deal with hopefuls.

; Come back when you've taken your final test. If you survive it.

; If Master Uthar gives you an order, you'd better follow it. There were some students who disobeyed him and now they're hiding out on the surface somewhere.

; There are some students in hiding that refused to follow an order. Master Uthar wants them found and dead... and is offering a reward for it, too!

; Just be careful if you go into the valley. I hear there's a hermit living in the hills that kidnaps students.

; The former master of the academy, Jorak Uln, is supposedly hiding out in the hills on the surface as some kind of mad hermit.

; Word is that one of our experimental droids went mad and escaped and is hiding in the ruins. I wonder why we don't just gather up and destroy it?

; One of my friends went to find that crazy droid that's hiding in the ruins in the valley. He hasn't come back, yet.

; Ha! It's great to be on the winning side, isn't it? We've been crushing the Republic at every battle so far!

; The latest reports say the Republic is on the run. Before long the Sith will be ruling the entire galaxy.

; Darth Malak is one of the greatest Sith leaders ever. I hope he comes back to the academy before I leave.

; It is my most fervent hope to serve under Darth Malak once my training is complete. Don't you feel the same?

; [[../Sith Academy#Renegade Sith|Rumor around the academy is that you had something to do with those rebel students being caught, finally. They got what they deserved, I say.]]

; [[../Sith Academy#Hermit in the Hills|I was told that you actually met the old master of the academy, Jorak. Is the hermit as mad as they say?]]

; [[../Sith Academy#Rogue Droid|The buzz is that you took care of that crazy droid out in the ruins. That's pretty impressive.]]

If you speak to [[../Valley of Dark Lords#Marka Ragnos' Tomb|Dak Vesser, or the Sith student]] standing outside the [[../Tomb of Marka Ragnos/]] in the southwest corner of the Valley of Dark Lords, then you'll know there's a rogue droid within before you enter.

===Valley===
[[../Valley of Dark Lords|Door to valley]] is in the north wall of the room to the north of the academy's hub. A Sith guard stands on the right, on the east side, while another patrols the corridor between this room and the hub.

When you first speak to Tariga, he can be asked about the valley and the ruins and tombs there, as well as the shyrack and tuk'ata you'll encounter:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|Greetings, fellow student. Are you planning on going to the Valley of the Dark Lords? I am headed there soon, myself.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|Who are you?}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|You're human, but you speak like a Twi'lek...}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|I was raised on a planet in the Outer Rim. We were not part of the Republic, so we never adopted their language. I can understand Basic, but I am not fluent in speaking it yet. I am, however, quite fluent in the Twi'lek tongue, so I prefer to use it when dealing with others. It is nearly as well known as Basic, and no one will make fun of my accent. I think I made the right choice. I doubt I would have been assigned to the Sith ruins in the Valley of the Dark Lords if I was stuttering and stumbling over an unfamiliar language.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|How do I get to this valley?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|The exit at the end of this hall will bring you to the surface. There you merely follow a natural path through the rock and you will come to the valley, itself. You will find many Sith working on the dig at the southern end of the valley. If you head into the northern end where the strange pillars are, do beware of the tuk'ata beasts.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|What are these tuk'ata?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|Local beasts that hunt in packs and are not at all afraid of attacking students... or even armed patrols. They have proven to be a hindrance to our progress.}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|Several attempts have been made to destroy their nests in the tombs, but their numbers have proven to be too great.}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|What can you tell me about the valley?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|There are four tombs that have been uncovered so far, each holding the remains of a Sith Lord from a time long ago when the Sith were first on Korriban. We have found evidence that there were larger structures underground, a veritable ancient fortress... but it appears to have been destroyed. The tombs are all that remain intact. Currently we are allowed access only to three tombs... the one furthest to the left may only be entered by Master Uthar and those he brings with him. Fortunately there is still much else for us to find. I am pleased that you have joined us.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||4.|Anything I should be watchful for?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|Yes, indeed. Shortly before entering the valley, you will pass by a cave entrance. Do not enter it... it is full of dangerous creatures we call shyrack. The only other danger to speak of is the tuk'ata. There are guards that will protect you if you remain in the south part of the valley, however.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|What are these shyrack?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Tariga:|Flying creatures that lay webs in their tunnels. The webs can only be burned or moved by explosives I believe. Best to avoid them entirely.}}

There's another female Sith teacher in the southwest corner, watching as a male and female Sith student spar with lightsabers. Another [[../Sith Academy#Renegade Sith|male Sith teacher]] stands instructing two male Sith students kneeling in the northwest corner.

====Hermit in the Hills====
{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Teacher:|Heh. Well... the first thing you should know is that that is not a name you should mention around Master Uthar if you can avoid it. Jorak Uln was once Uthar's master, you see, and the head of this academy. He went a little insane, however, and Uthar forced him to flee to the surface and hide. It seems that Jorak has been spending his time kidnapping students who wander into the Valley of the Dark Lords. No idea why. I've also no idea why Uthar doesn't do something about it. If you want prestige, however, you'll find that hermit, as everyone calls him... you'll find Jorak and either kill him or bring back anything he's been writing. Uthar would like that. Now begone. I have better things to do than chat with lost hopefuls.}}

{| {{prettytable}}

|}

When you enter the valley the student [[../Valley of Dark Lords#Tulak Hord's Tomb|Dak Vesser]] to the northwest of the entrance can also inform you of the hermit in the hills before you encounter him in the [[../Tomb of Tulak Hord/]]. Although you'll also encounter the student {{s|Sith Academy Entrance|Mekel}} with Jorak, he doesn't really have anything to say if you speak beforehand (he can be found down the corridor on the south side of the main corridor opposite [[../Sith Academy#Aiding Lashowe|Lashowe]], standing at a computer panel to the left, on the east side):

Otherwise:

|}

Otherwise, once you've asked what makes him so sure he'll be the one who makes it, you can try to persuade him to tell you why (although the fact that prestige can be gained with Sith artifacts brought back from the valley can be learned elsewhere):

===Interrogation Room===
The interrogation room is beyond the door in the north wall at the east end of the academy's main corridor. As you enter, the Sith interrogator standing at the computer panel by the north wall speaks to you, presenting you with an opportunity to gain prestige:

{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|I have to go.|W=50%}}

|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Interrogator:|Don't bother me. I'm trying to think how I'm going to question this prisoner. I need to know where that cache is!}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|How do you drug him?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Interrogator:|Just activate the console... it gives you a variety of options for serum dosage. The right amount applied at the right rate should do it. The real trick is that the only way to gauge your progress is to watch the prisoner closely for his reaction. Our scanners can't pick up his vitals.}}
|}

|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|[[../Sith Academy#Mandalorian Weapons Cache|You want me to try it?]]}}
|}

The Sith victim stands in a cage to the west:

;[The Mandalorian is imprisoned and cannot respond.]

There's a locked metal box in the southwest corner:

{{KotOR/Lock|Bash|Metal Box|28 (8)|5|15}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Container|Metal Box|

All that remains is to question the Mandalorian prisoner...

====Mandalorian Weapons Cache====
{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Interrogator:|Certainly. Just don't kill him or send him into shock. He's supposed to be questioned, not executed.|C=2}}

|}

The Sith interrogator steps back to the entrance, allowing you to use the computer panel to interrogate the prisoner:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|Use... use whatever method you wish, Sith. You will not break my will! My mind is my own, and I will tell you nothing!}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|[Whisper] Do you know any way I could free you?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|You... you are trying to trick me! I do not believe you!}}
|}

|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Persuade|Medium|1.|[Persuade] Trust me... I'll help you if I can!}}

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|[Success] If... if you speak the truth... then use the console to put me... in a catatonic state... Your people will... remove me, throw me away. I can survive for long periods... in this state. I can escape, then...|W=50%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|[Failure] N-no! You lie! I will never believe the words of a Sith!!|W=50%}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|I'll think about it.}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||6.|Fine. Have it your way.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|Then... I win again...|C=2}}
|}

|}

Since you move closer to the dark side of the Force if you inject truth serum, a light side character should start by asking if there's any way you could free him, then convince him to trust you so that he tells you how before using the serum console:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||5.|[Activate the serum console.]}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Computer Panel:|[How do you wish to use the console?]}}

|}

|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Skill|Computer Use|6.|[Computer Skill] [Apply a serum to induce catatonic state.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|[Failure] ...n-no, that is... n-not...}}
|}

However, your chance of success is dependent on the ratio between your main character's total {{s|Skills|Computer Use}} rank and level: ratio = rank / (level + 5).

|}

Failure results in the injection of a single dose of truth serum, and ten such injections will result in the prisoner going into shock:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Alignment|Dark|-3|Sith Victim:|I... I h-have... w-won...}}
|-
{{KotOR/Journal|The Mandalorian Weapons Cache|You attempted to extract the location of a weapons cache from a Mandalorian prisoner within the academy, but ended up injecting too much truth serum too fast. This resulted in the prisoner going into shock, which makes him quite useless.}}
|}

However, even 25% chance of success should be sufficient, since the chance of at least one success from nine attempts is 100 * (1 – (0.75<sup>9</sup>) ) or '''~92.5%''': even a character with no points spent in Computer Use and 8 {{s|Attributes|Intelligence}} should be able to achieve this with bonuses from items and a {{s|Force powers|Force Valor}} power. Even in the unlikely event that all nine attempts are failures, moderate dosages of anti-serum can be applied to allow more attempts to be made until one is successful:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Alignment|Light|+4|Sith Victim:|[Success] Th-thank... y-you...}}

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}

|}

|}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Journal|The Mandalorian Weapons Cache|You managed to save a Mandalorian prisoner by rendering him catatonic... his body will be presumed dead and will be dumped, allowing him to escape upon his recovery. He gratefully told you the location of his cache. It is unreachable by you, but its location could be given to Master Uthar in exchange for prestige.}}
|}

In either case the Sith interrogator leaves after berating you:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Interrogator:|What?! What have you done?! I told you not to put the prisoner into shock, didn't I?! Now how are we supposed to find out where the weapon cache is?! Uthar will be furious!! Bah! Now I may as well take this fool and dump him somewhere. He's useless to us! I cannot believe you are so incompetent!}}
|}

Otherwise, you must inject truth serum and move closer to the dark side of the Force the first time you do so:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Alignment|Dark|-3|1.|[Inject truth serum: high dosage.]|W=20%}}
{{KotOR/Alignment|Dark|-3|2.|[Inject truth serum: moderate dosage.]|W=20%}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Sith Victim:|...ahhh...|W=40%}}

The doses in each dosage are as follows:

If you can [[../Force powers#Affect Mind|dominate minds]] then he'll tell you the location after five doses (one high dosage); otherwise, he'll only do so after exactly nine (three moderate dosages is simplest).

If you can dominate minds or your character is male then she can be persuaded to let you work with her without any further conditions:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|[Success] Flattery, is it? I... suppose it's possible that Master Uthar could award both of us prestige. We'd be ahead of the others, for sure...}}

Otherwise it's more difficult to persuade her, particularly if she dislikes you, and even if you succeed then she wants you to give her a lead for how she could gain more prestige:

{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|Then you'll just have to come back when you do. Of course, I may have changed my mind by then...}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|Then you're on your own.}}

|}

If you don't know any leads then you can try to lie about one, but it's simple enough to ask around the academy until you have one:

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|You've given me a lead, so I'll let you in on my plan. The artifact that I've discovered is an ancient Jedi holocron.|C=3}}

In any case, once you've convinced her to allow you to help:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|Unfortunately, the holocron lies in the gullet of a tuk'ata mother. I can arrange for us to 'meet' her, but you're going to have to help me in putting her down.

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||2.|Why do you think this holocron is so important?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|Because it probably contains secrets from the time when the Sith ruins on this planet first existed. You don't think that Master Uthar would find that impressive?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||3.|What is a holocron?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Lashowe:|A holocron... this holocron, anyway... is an ancient recording device. It can store and display large amounts of information.}}

[[../Valley of Dark Lords#Meeting Place|Lashowe]] can now be found at the north end of the valley outside, to the east opposite the door to Tulak Hord's tomb.

==Dueling Room==
The dueling room is beyond the door in the south wall at the east end of the academy's main corridor. As you enter for the first time, you witness combat between a Sith duelist and a captive Republic soldier to the left, on the east side of the room. Once the duelist kills the captive, he moves over to the computer panel in the center of the room, opposite the door. There's a locked metal box in the southeast corner:

|-

==Finding Dustil==
Once you've encountered the messenger [[../Carth#Finding Dustil|Jordo]] after speaking to [[../Carth/]], his son Dustil Onasi appears in the dormitory wing of the academy to the west of its hub, beyond [[../Sith Academy#Hermit in the Hills|Mekel]] at the south end of the corridor to the east of your {{s|Sith Academy|Bedroom}}:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|You take a wrong turn somewhere?}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|What is with the questions? My life is none of your business, so get lost.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|Aren't you Carth Onasi's son?}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|No, I'm not. I don't know who you're talking about.}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||I didn't have a choice! I was needed...}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|Yeah? Well you were needed at home, too. You were needed when the bombing started and I got captured. You know what? It doesn't matter. Not any more. I have a new family now, a family that cares about me. I don't need you.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||The Sith? You can't mean that! No, the Sith killed your mother! The Sith destroyed Telos!}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|So? You're the soldier, father. How many mothers have you killed?}}

{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||The Sith war to conquer, to rule the helpless. I went to war for *you*, Dustil. For your freedom, your future!}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|Heh. I... don't believe you.}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||If I failed you, son, then it's... it's *my* failure. Please don't add to it by becoming part of something evil.}}

{| {{prettytable}}

While you move no closer to the dark side of the Force for killing Dustil (since ''he'' attacked ''you''), any romance between a female character and [[../Carth#Finding Dustil|Carth]] dies with him. Otherwise, after telling Dustil to calm down:

{{KotOR/Hide}}

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|I don't see the old man with you. Did he come to his senses and leave, finally? I knew he couldn't prove anything. I don't know why you're still here. Why don't you just follow him wherever he went? You and I have no business at all.|W=25%|R=5}}

|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||Please... don't say that...}}

{{KotOR/Dialog||Dustil Onasi:|Whatever. Just go if you're going. I have things to do.}}

If you speak to Carth:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Dialog||1.|Do you want to talk?}}
|-
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||No. What I want is to find something... anything... that will convince Dustil that we're telling the truth. There must be *something* here in the academy we can bring to him, something that would show him what the Sith really are!}}

Slicing the console in the [[../Sith Academy#Dueling Room|dueling room]] at the east end of the academy and hacking into its datafiles will give a clue where to find the necessary proof:

However, you can simply go to [[../Sith Academy#Double-Double-Cross|Uthar Wynn's room]] at the west end of the academy, where a second footlocker can now be found to the right of the table in the southeast corner:

{| {{prettytable}}
{{KotOR/Container|Footlocker|
* '''Datapad'''
* {{s|Grenades|Frag Grenade}}
* {{s|Stimulants|Hyper-battle Stimulant}}|W=50%}}
{{KotOR/Dialog|Carth||That datapad... take a look at it. I wonder if Dustil knows his friend was disposed of like that? If not, it might convince Dustil that what we're saying about the Sith is true. It would be worth a shot.|W=50%}}
|}

{{KotOR/Hide|Datapad}}

{| {{prettytable}}
|
'''This datapad appears to contain numerous entries of notes made by Master Uthar of the Sith Academy. Most prominent of the recent entries is the following:'''

; "The pupil known as Dustil has shown remarkable progress. His talent with the Force is great. The same, however, cannot be said for the human female that he arrived with, Selene.

; She has little talent. Moreover, Dustil holds a great degree of affection for her. This is a weakness in the boy and has been slowing down his training.

; Orders were sent this morning to have the girl removed from the academy and terminated. I will tell Dustil that she was killed in the valley. He will forget her soon enough, I think... he is too promising to lose at this juncture."
