Description: Darth Tyranus/Count Dooku, AOTC
Prefix: SL
Detachment: Sith Lord Detachment
Context: Episode II: Attack of the Clones
The leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and Sith apprentice to Darth Sidious. The rich, dark color scheme of this Sith Lord's attire represents the height of his influence.

The 501st approval requirements are listed in black.

The Sith Lord Detachment defines additional, optional levels of costuming excellence. In the page below, items listed under "For level two certification" are recommended features that will greatly improve the quality of the costume. These items are not required for 501st membership, but are highly recommended. Items listed under "For level three certification" are some of the highest level accuracy features for those who strive to be screen accurate. These items are also not required for 501st membership.

Also note that these two additional "certification levels" DO NOT correspond to the Advanced Standards program of the Sith Lord Detachment, and you are encouraged to visit the Sith Lord Detachment Forum for more information.

For 501st membership, only the requirements in black need to be met.

The following costume components must be present and appear as described below for approval .

• The cape must be made of wool in the appropriate color; Attack of the Clones has a dark brown cloak with a rustic-colored lining of a velvet/velour fabric.

• The bottom of the tunic should fall 4–5" below the waist (measurements given for proportional dimensions only).
  

• The tunic must be made of a gabardine fabric black in color.
• The collar stands up ~ 2" or so on the neck with a closed gap.
