The Real Reason Star Wars’ Inquisitors Aren’t In A New Hope Is Seriously Dark

The Inquisitors first appeared in the premiere episode of Star Wars: Rebels, titled “Spark of Rebellion,” and quickly became fan favorites. They were immediately compelling thanks to their unique spinning double-bladed lightsabers, striking uniforms and masks, and unusual naming system – each Inquisitor is designated with a sibling title and number, like ‘Tenth Brother’ or ‘Seventh Sister.’ This all contributed to their mysterious and dangerous reputation. Even now, the total number of Inquisitors remains unknown. While at least 16 have appeared in official Star Wars stories, no film, television show, book, or comic has ever revealed the complete count.
