Trained by Darth Vader himself, the Inquisitors are Sith in all but name (as there can only be two Dark Lords at a time). The Inquisitors are a special division of force sensitives, all former Jedi who surrendered to the Empire during the Jedi Purge and fell to the dark side of the Force. But who are the Inquisitors, what was their place in the Empire, and what are their ultimate fates? Though they no longer existed by the time of the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Star Wars, they were historically a critical tool of the Empire and the Sith in their quest to eliminate the Jedi and enforce galactic domination. First introduced in Star Wars Rebels and playing pivotal roles in Jedi: Fallen Order and the Star Wars: Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith comic series, the Inquisitors are a mysterious and deadly group of dark side users.

Star Wars canon has introduced several Imperial Inquisitors, evil fallen Jedi who, under the command of Darth Vader, searched to root out and destroy survivors of Order 66.
