Who’s the Mysteriously Masked Sith-Lord in ‘The Acolyte’

After its June 4th premiere, The Acolyte has sparked fan hypotheses about who the masked figure with the crimson lightsaber and distorted voice speaking to Mae is.

In the first two episodes, this evil lord appears just briefly, appearing to be meeting Mae on a lonely beach on an unidentified planet.

Who Is The Sith?

It is impossible to correctly identify the Sith Master hiding behind the mask at first glance.

Over time, the new Sith's identity and goals will undoubtedly become clear. If you haven't already, look at the master in the interim.

What Does The Sith Want?

The Sith master has given Mae the mission to eliminate four Jedi. These Jedi were present on Mae's home planet when her family perished in a fire. Mae discovered her twin sister Osha was still alive after initially believing she had died in the fire as well.

On meeting with Mae, the Sith Lord says:

“The Jedi live in a dream, a dream they believe everyone shares; if you attack a Jedi with a weapon, you will fail, steel or laser are no threat to them, but an Acolyte, an Acolyte kills without a weapon. An Acolyte kills the dream.”

The exciting twist is even Mae doesn't know who this Sith is. 

Stay tuned for upcoming updates.
