Emperor's Echo

The Emperor's Echo, also known as the Voice of the Emperor''', was a position created by the Lord Emperor of the Imperial Empire. The position required that an individual give up his or her body to the Emperor during a Sith ritual, becoming an extension of his will in the galaxy. Various incarnations have appeared over the centuries, extending from a Human to a Pureblood Sith Lord. Essentially, the Voice acts as regent to the Emperor, sometimes even obeyed as the supreme leader himself. Though the host body may be killed, the Emperor's essence is returned to the Emperor's Hand, making the Voice immortal.
