With defeated Jedi in his wake, a lone figure steps out of the jungles of Khofar. His red blade shines brightly. His face is hidden beneath a macabre mask. The Stranger has work to do in Empire Temple. Woe to those who stand in his way.

Empire Temple would like to thank our Veterans for their service.

On Silly Saber Saturday Episode XIV the Jedi plan a bold move to trap the Sith in an unending maze. It did not go as planned.... #SillySaberSaturday #NYSaberGuild #SaberGuildEndor #SaberGuildInt

Dust. A thick cloud hangs in the air. You cannot see, but you can hear the screams. They are distant at first, but then you hear them closer. All cut short. The light of two sabers are now visible through the haze. Too close. Too late. We welcome Lady Ash to Empire Temple!

We'd like to give very special thanks to Saber Guild: Endor Temple and the 501st's Empire City Garrison for joining us at today's Monster Mash at St. Mary's Children's Hospital! Thank you for bringing Star Wars to these amazing kids and their community!

Proof that these two franchises CAN coexist.

On Silly Saber Saturday Episode XIII, Joga Crosswind appears to have found Sceris' only weakness....

On Silly Saber Saturday Episode XI, we have a question for... the fans. "URRRRRAHHH" Do you stand for the light with JED/ or for the dark with the Sith Boys? #SillySaberSaturday #NYSaberGuild #EmpireSaberGuild #saberguildint

"Join the dark side!" they said. "We have cookies!" they said. On Silly Saber Saturday Episode X, Phenix Raine asks "Who has the cookies now Sith? Who has the cookies NOW?" #SillySaberSaturday #NYSaberGuild #EmpireSaberGuild #SaberGuildInt

In dark times, we must always look towards the light. We are honored to have the latest addition to the Jedi Order with us. Welcome to Empire Temple, Adasse Miku!

Special thanks to @roguealliance.bsky.social for the invite to help perform for the walkers of AIDS Walk in Central Park!

A tragic tale with one family member on the side of the light and the other on the side of darkness that has never been told before in this or any other universe. But what about... I SAID, never been told before! Where was I going with this? Oh right, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY from Empire Temple!

On Silly Saber Saturday Episode VIII, the Sith are sent after the Millennium Falcon but there appears to be some confusion.... #SillySaberSaturday #NYSaberGuild #EmpireSaberGuild #Sith

May the Fourth? That's adorable. You've had your time Jedi. Today, Empire Temple brings the Revenge of the Fifth!

The Jedi of Empire Temple would like to say "May the Fourth be with you!"

Get ready!

This is a grand day for the Republic! We are joined by A'Sharad Hett, Padawan to Ki-Adi-Mundi! Welcome to Empire Temple, SG-1353!

You never know who you'll see at @fanfairenyc. We ran into Padme and a Jedi Knight and we'd love to see you too!

We're waiting for you at @fanfairenyc.bsky.social. It's not wise to keep the Sith waiting...

On Silly Saber Saturday Episode VII, we explore an alternate version of John Williams' Imperial March. Jovan Sceris and Caedus Sadow weren't impressed....

Join us this weekend at @fanfairenyc.bsky.social! We'll be on hand with demonstrations and a lightsaber training session during the judging of the costume contest. Hope to see you all there!

On International Women's Day even the Jedi and Sith can get along. For now....
