The Purge was first referenced on July 19, 2011 in the introduction of the fifth timeline on TheStarWarsRP.Com, Star Wars Legacies. It detailed how Darth Aevum and the Sith gained control of the empire. It reveals the death of the emperor, the purge of the Imperial Knights that resulted in their self-exile, and how the Imperials accepted its new leaders. Dmitri Valentine would later expand parts of the Purge and the pre-Sith Insurrection dynasty, the Elyurius dynasty. Dmitri Valentine hopes to restart The Purge before the end of 2012.
