"The Dark Dog": Darth Vader's Forgotten Nickname Questions Whether He Was Ever a True Sith
Darth Vader's "Dark Dog" nickname implies he was a temporary dark side soldier, not a lifelong Sith Lord. His lack of actual power in the Empire suggests Vader's commitment to the Sith may have been conditional. The ongoing debate about Darth Vader's true Sith status continues to puzzle Star Wars fans.
