Recently, in a topic about the possibility of the Sith Order falling out of favor with members - mostly because they are still under the impression that activities are tethered to the social group's title - I had suggested the "unthinkable"...
Remove Obelisk.
Seems sensible to me. The Obelisk order was created for the Emperor's Hammer. It has no official standing in the Star Wars lore, though the name was derived from a creature in their universe. The DJB just uses it out of familiarity. If we really wanted to make a further departure from our former club, we'd eliminate the one piece that still truly ties us to them.
Should this happen? Yes. I'm sure somewhere in all that EH legal mumbo jumbo they say something about it all being their property. I'm sure Blazer couldn't possibly care less, but someone out there does. We should sever this final stagnant piece of our oppressive history, if only to keep them from holding it over our heads that we're using something one of their members created.
(I won't go into detail about how, for years after the Exodus, they used images of mine without giving me credit on a number of sites...)
Would this ever happen? Would the DJB cut off Obelisk and force their members to choose Sith or Krath? Probably not while I'm still hanging around.
