So yeah, I've recently been toying with the idea of a Lightsided Sith-like Character who works for the Republic, and it seems to be a recurring idea that just never really gets executed.
Basically what the story I have in my head now is that there is a boy whose parents are slaves... and not just any slaves, but formerly slaves of the late Darth Voracitos. They died in the coup, placing great sorrow on the lad, because it turns out he doesn't even want to be a Sith... or Jedi, or anything! He just wants to raise a family, but can't because the force has plagued his family. When inevitably the Empire falls, I expect that he will be found by Republic forces, but he would surrender himself, even so far as rendering himself unconscious to make them realize he means no harm.
Once captured as a prisoner of war, he would be interrogated by someone (preferably a Jedi). The lad would plead for the redemption of the sins he has committed simply to survive the Sith academy, and its gruesome trials. Eventually his emotion and over all sincerity convinces his Interrogator to bring him before the Jedi (maybe even their Council!) to be judged.
I think for awhile he would train as a Padawan under a Master... but at some point he confesses that he feels unfulfilled. He finds a higher truth in the Sith Code he had been taught than of the Jedi's code. He believes that if looked at correctly without corruption, and stripped of its heinous origins, could make a man greater than he was before by following it, a better moral man. He also believes that after reviewing the Jedi Code, he believes that the light of the Jedi is too bright, and burns and destroys because it forces upon the imperfect universe balance, harmony, and "peace", which is truthfully an unnatural state of being.
Basically here is his interpretations:
Sith Code and Interpretation
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. = Never settle, follow your heart.
Through passion, I gain strength. = Your feelings strengthen your resolve.
Through strength, I gain power. = Your strength empowers your influence.
Through power, I gain victory. = Through that power you shall achieve greatness.
Through victory, my chains are broken. = In victory your spirit is unbound.
The Force shall free me. = You will be free
Jedi Code Interpretation
There is no emotion, there is peace. = Fall deaf to you heart, all must be still.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. = Let your mind conquer feeling
There is no passion, there is serenity. = Your heart must be dead, to ice the world solid
There is no chaos, there is harmony. = Suppress life, all must be melancholy
There is no death, there is the force. = Life is chained, and tossed into the abyss.
He'll be a righteous Sith fighting for his passion of love (not just relationship/family love, but love of everything) along side Jedi (maybe)
What do you think? And if it's TLDR just don't comment at all plz, thank you.
