At best, Sith Lords are considered "Dark Jedi". Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn described Darth Maul as one trained in the Jedi arts, yet obviously a Sith Lord.[/geek]

When it came down to pure fighting skills (not Force coherence), Maul was one bad motherfucker. Definitely my favotite lightsaber battle in the entire series is from The Phantom Menace, clear and away the highlight of that movie.

I thought I turned my geek mode off?
