Right, with main antagonist I mean they're the only constant villain throught the 6 movies. We see Trade Federation, Separatists, Empire, but these are always factions ruled by Sith. I don't want them to be prominent, I'm going to post more material about which are the main villains, battles, etc.

And concerning prophecy, and cycling of the Force I think it should enough to Luke to foresee this before the end of ep IX.

But I can't really imagine a SW movie without lightsaber battle. Without a Dark Side adept, call him Sith or Dark Jedi.

I don't really care if he is Sith or not, and if he is to play a minor role. He can also be barely seen a la Darth Maul or Sidious in TPM/AOTC. Even less. Just to be there in the right moment for the battle.

Even because - and this is the problem with Sith/Dark Jedi - how were they able to resurrect if no one of them is survived after ROTJ?

The options are:

1. A Jedi of the new Order that fall to the dark side (already seen in the EU and anyway it seems Anakin's story too much)

2. A self-trained Dark Jedi (possible? I don't know…)

3. A "secret apprentice" of Vader or Palpatine (already seen and with him around the victory of ROTJ wasn't be complete)

4. A Dark Jedi Order hidden in the unknown regions. Having the mastermind dealing with problems there he could inadvertently "wake them up"

5. They simply appear and the heroes never discover their origins (no way)

In some way I think the 4th option is something that maybe could work. Being these "movies", and so *playing* not to be EU but canon, they could follow the GL storyline of the galaxy in which a millennium before the movies the galaxy was ruled by the sith, eventually defeated by the Jedi end believed extinct. And so the Republic was born. So, these Sith can be a group of the first ones in some way escaped?

mh… Meditate on this, I will.
