Thanaton will have access to all resources in his pyramid of the Sith hierarchy." ―Moff Valion Pyron, discussing the power a Dark Councilor wielded within the Empire " The Dark Council are the galaxy's most powerful Sith.

Shortly after the conquest of the Eternal Empire, Darth Marr died at the hands of Valkorion, Darth Nox and the Empire's Wrath had disappeared and with that majority of the Dark Council had either been killed or disappeared leaving only Darth Acina to declare herself Empress of the Sith. After the true plans of Emperor Vitiate came to light, the Dark Council declared Vitiate a traitor and renounced his status as Emperor and became the dominant power of the Empire. Since its inception at the Empire's founding in 4980 BBY, the Dark Council tried and failed to overthrow the Emperor twice and its members were purged as a result. Seats on the Council were hotly contested among the Sith, with the tenures of some Councilors lasting only months while others lasted decades, and every single individual within the entire Empire ultimately answered to one member of the Council through the Imperial hierarchy of power bases. Each member of the Council held the title of Dark Lord of the Sith and controlled one of the twelve Spheres of Influence within the Empire, making the Council the most powerful individuals in the Empire below the Sith Emperor himself. The Dark Council was the unicameral governing body of the reconstituted Sith Empire in the form of a twelve-member council that served as the ruling body throughout much of the Empire's history.
