Sith Executioner signified a specific role inside the Sith Empire. This designation was bestowed upon individuals who had proven themselves worthy of eliminating adversaries of the Sith Emperor. The Sith Lord named Koval Renge at one juncture attained this office, but ultimately, his dread of his superior evolved into an effort to double-cross the Emperor. Nevertheless, his scheme was unearthed, and the Emperor, as retribution for his deeds, left the executioner's blade, which was used for ceremonies, shattered and lodged in Koval Renge's body, with a fragment inflicting severe torment.
