BioWare Reveals Details About the Sith Inquisitor in Star Wars: The Old Republic

This week BioWare released details of the Sith Inquisitor in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Capable of wielding both ranged combat attacks and a lightsaber, the Sith Inquisitor specializes in channeling the Force to drain the life from their enemies and feed themselves. Emporer Palpatine could easily be considered one of the most famed Sith Inquisitors, but players will be able to take on the role of this dark class in SWTOR.

The history of the Sith Empire is fraught with scheming politics and dark secrets—the lifeblood of the Sith Inquisitor. Treachery hides around every corner in the Empire’s dark corridors, and survival depends on an individual’s natural cunning and the will to manipulate and defeat enemies and allies alike. The Inquisitor experiments with forbidden powers to not only survive in this cutthroat environment, but to excel and seize authority.
