OKAY so Saator has always been much more passive than the other Darkin, even back when they were normal Ascended.
He was a priest in Shurima before being chosen for Ascension, and continued similar duties up until the fall of Shurima. Blah blah Darkin history moment, he avoided being mind controlled by Xolaani due to being passive as hell and knowing he isn't as strong as the rest of the Darkin. Blah blah they get trapped in their weapons (and in Saator's case, the bell he channelled his powers through) and Saator is placed somewhere in what is now Noxus, eventually being found by uhhhh someone (probably the Black Rose or similar). The rest is history as he eventually takes a host and leaves the capital with Sinclair's mother.
He's probably considered a coward by the other (more aggressive) Darkin though, despite being similar in power, simply because he would rather follow the strongest than lead. This would've gotten worse as the Darkin were corrupted. Saator also took to altering his body with hemomancy, but rather than turn to harm or mind control, he kept to his own business, although no longer as any kind of priest. Most have a slight dislike for him, but given the opportunity he's a useful asset. He isn't the same kind of coward they consider Xolaani.
At this point, none of the other Darkin have met Saator or Sinclair in the modern day, but the other Darkin would most likely assume Sinclair is the host, and that Saator was either too weak or cowardly to take over their body, since their situation is one-of-a-kind. Sinclair is still in their Steven Universe situation oopsie
