''[http://www.siubhan.com/sithacademy/ The Sith Academy]'' was a [[Star Wars]] [[Fanfic]] writing group with a shared [[Alternate Universe]], focused on the (regrettably) minor character Darth Maul. Initially a parody series centered on Maul's 'training' (read: exploitation) by his master, Darth Sidious, it took a sharp turn into [[Foe Yay]] territory by the [[Crack Pairing|intentionally absurd pairing]] of Maul with a young Obi-Wan Kenobi.
 
The group operated from July 1999 to December 2001, covering 181 stories, with the finale being an alternate interpretation of the events of the [[Canon]] film ''The Phantom Menace''. Unlike most [[Fanfic]], the series had an overall editorial policy, and so avoided a lot of the [[Sturgeon's Law|quality issues]] which plague fan work in general. It also had a rabidly active fanbase, who not only contributed stories but also ran a mailing list for them.

Line 33:
* [[Pollyanna]] - Obi Wan, to such an extent that the authors later felt it necessary to explain it away as the result of personality-altering medication.
* [[Power Perversion Potential]] - 'Force Driven Monkey Love' is the starting point; it gets much, much weirder at times.
* [[Running Gag]] - Oh, where to begin...
* [[Slash Fic]] - And how!
* [[Take That]] - The first story was written to vent the author's frustration over a driving test. Later targets of the authors' collective ire include air travel, the National Rifle Association, IKEA stores, and Martha Stewart.
* [[The Dark Side]] - Very, very subverted.
* [[Training Fromfrom Hell]] and [[Wax On, Wax Off]] - Viciously subverted. The original premise of the series is the 'bunch of menial crap' which Palpatine foists off on Maul under the guise of 'training'.
* [[Trash of the Titans]] - Maul's apartment is literally supernaturally filthy due to the corrupting effects of [[The Dark Side]] .
* [[Villains Out Shopping]] - Most of the stories involve this, especially early on. Subverted, in that it's actually the ''Heroes'' Out Shopping, and Maul takes it as an opportunity to twit the Twit Jedi Apprentice over and over again.
