Palpatine, known during the Clone Wars as Chancellor Palpatine and during The Last of the Droids as Emperor Palpatine, is a Force-sensitive Human male during many eras, and the main villain in the crossover. During the Clone Wars, he was known as Chancellor Palpatine to the general public, and was always giving the new information about the Confederacy of Independent Systems whenever they created something new. As Darth Sidious, his real persona, he gave the Confederacy orders to attack planets and take them over. He is the one responsible for the devastating Clone Wars, as he controlled the wars on both sides, resulting in the deaths of billions of lifeforms.
After the Clone Wars ended, Palpatine later had Count Dooku killed, convinced Anakin to turn to the Dark Side, and had all of the Jedi and Separatist leaders killed and all of the Battle Droids shut down. Seeing as no one was left to oppose him, he destroyed the Republic, shed his "kind" image, and created the Galactic Empire. He reigned for about 5 or so years, controlling every planet and every living thing with fear by using weapons such as the Death Star to keep people from protesting. When the droid army returns as the New Confederacy of Independent Systems, Palpatine does everything he can to destroy the growing Confederacy and keep his power.
Personality[]
Palpatine can be best described as evil incarnate, as he has all the traits of the Sith and worse. It is said that even the Sith, who are feared throughout the galaxy for their deplorable acts, are disgusted by him due to his coldness, lack of empathy/sympathy and ruthless and cold ambition.
He has shown that he is willing to use people as a means to an end, and then will quickly dispose of them when he has no use of them. He is also very arrogant and short-tempered at times, though he will put on an act of great patience if it calls for it. Due to his ability to see the future, Palpatine has the habit of planning out events ahead of time and manipulates certain events to make sure that they tip in his favor. One of the things he didn't count on was TF-1726's return and his plan to revive the Confederacy, forcing him to think up new strategies as Trench is winning supporters around the galaxy.
