While Qimir secern Master Sol ( Lee Jung - jae ) inThe Acolyteepisode 5 that the Jedi Order would call him " Sith " , the implication is that it would n’t be what he would call himself .

What ’s the honest way to watch Star Wars ? Here ’s everything you need to know to watch in waiver or timeline order , and how to include the idiot box shows .
The Acolyte Episode 6 Teased Qimir’s Complex Past
He Was Once A Jedi
While speak with Osha on his unknown world ( that very much resemblesThe Last Jedi’sAhch - To ) , Qimir confirms that he too has tie to the Jedi Order . Just like Osha herself , Qimir was apparently once a Jedi"a tenacious metre ago " . However , he then entrust the Order for some unknown intellect in search of a new path . He also take that he once drop off everything that had ever mattered to him , likely the primary cause he was draw to the sinister side of the Force .
However , it ’s also worth noting that when Osha instantly asksQimir about his scar inThe Acolyteepisode 6 , his answer teases yet another mysterious chapter of his past . When Osha ask if he received his scar from his Jedi master , Qimir does n’t respond . As such , the inherent significance that ’s teased is that the scars came from someone else who"threw him away " .
Qimir’s Scars Don’t Appear To Be From A Lightsaber
They’re Not Straight Enough And Branch Out
Qimir ’s scratch themselves have their own story to tell inThe Acolyteepisode 6 . race down the distance of Qimir ’s back , the scar is quite prominent while also branching off , create notched lines across the back of this Modern saturnine side user ’s trunk . To that end , it does n’t seem as though this is the kind of wounding that would total from a traditional lightsaber , take care how the scars are not nearly straight enough .
It ’s also worth noting thatThe Acolyteepisode 6 does confirm thatQimir received his scars after he was stabbed in the back . Such a dishonest blast would n’t have hail from the average Jedi ( unless they were importantly virtuously compromised ) . or else , one has to wonder if the one who scarred Qimir was insteada genuine Dark Lord of the Sith fromStar Warsknown account .
Acolyte Theory: Qimir Is An Ex-Sith Apprentice
Scarred By Force Lightning
Rather than coming from a lightsaber , Qimir ’s mark look as though they might have come from a good time of powerful Force lightning , an ability commonly used by those skilled in the dark side of the Force . As such , perhaps the one who wounded Qimir and " hold him aside " was a Dark Lord of the Sith who reject Qimir as their apprentice . This would give Qimir link to both the Jedi Order and the Sith Lords , while still being set apart from both groups of Force users .
Qimir being a Sith cull would also help dodge the sleep together Sith Lords in the canon who should be operate during this time;Darth Tenebrousand / orDarth Plagueis . Perhaps Qimir was one of their apprentices who was ultimately eliminate , not unlike Darth Venamis . At any charge per unit , it should prove to be very exciting to see where Qimir ’s scars came from , his full origins , as well as what he really is in theStar Warscanon . At this point , it ’s extremely doubtful that he ’s a traditional Dark Lord of the Sith .
