SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Darth Tenebrous is one of the most mysterious yet important Sith Lords in all Star Wars, and he may have just made his entrance in The Acolyte. The identity of The Acolyte's Sith Lord has been a central mystery in the new Star Wars show, and The Acolyte episode 4 only made their reveal even more anticipated.
Darth Tenebrous Originated In Star Wars Legends Darth Tenebrous first appeared in an issue of Star Wars Insider, and his character was later expanded upon in James Luceno's novel, "Star Wars: Darth Plagueis." Both of those appearances are now considered non-canon "Legends" stories, however, and they only offered a short glimpse into his life.
Darth Tenebrous Has Only Ever Been Name-Dropped In Star Wars Canon Close Darth Tenebrous is almost exclusively a product of Star Wars Legends, but he has been canonized in recent years. In 2015, Tenebrous was mentioned in Build the Millennium Falcon #44, a canon guide to building a replica of Han Solo's famous ship.
