An Apprentice is chosen for both their potential, and their proven worth through their performance as an Acolyte and in their trials. Showing their skill, cunning, and guile in Enforcement and Strategy, Information and Extraction, the Beast Hunt, and in Sith Philosophy demonstrates their capacity to make a worthy supplicant.
The dynamic of a Master and their Apprentice varies, but foundational underpinnings must be consistent to ensure productive teaching from the Master, and that the Apprentice performs their duties. From this, the Apprentice will emerge newly reforged, stronger and more wise from their Master’s teachings and prepared to contribute independently to the larger goals of House Horuset and the Empire.
An Apprentice is an extension of their Master and their influence. They will be joined to the cause of their Master, learn from their teachings, and carry out orders and tasks that their Master assigns with fervour. Through this, the Apprentice refines their own skills and abilities and uses these to push their limits. While the Apprentice is bound to serve their Master, this is not blind faith or done out of sheer duty. The proper Apprentice will share their Master’s ideals and visions, while developing their own. An Apprentice should not be the carbon copy of their Master, for this is a waste, but hone their own identity as they continue to progress.
Apprentices and their Masters should have differing opinions. To not have these indicates a fatal flaw - either the Apprentice has no identity of their own, or the Master has not properly encouraged independent thought and initiative. The Master should demonstrate why their way of thinking is correct. If this does not work and the Apprentice continues to rebel, then the Apprentice is a failure.
A successful Apprentice takes their Master’s teachings, applies them, forms their own identity, and makes the Empire stronger from it. To summarise, the role of an Apprentice represents evolution in its purest form, forged from the teachings of their Master that imbibe their own will and will continue on.
