>most powerful Sith lord who ever lived>his name is SheevSeriously?
>>214821261It was Cos Dashit, then got officially changed to Cos Palpatine*, then redditors got it changed to Sheev, which sounds stupid.*Star Wars Chronicles (1997) Deborah Fine
>>214821440>then redditors got it changed to Sheevdidn't it come from the original live action series that Lucas was developing?
>>214821552I think so, but those types I mentioned were the same types of people.
>>214821552Correct. Officially the name first came up in James Luceno's Tarkin novel, and Luceno revealed that he got the name from Lucas' Underworld scripts. Lucas almost made Sheev an incel, who was wronged by a gangster woman.
>>214821616>Lucas almost made Sheev an incelsadly we don't know if that's true or not. no details were revealed about what happened
>>214821656Someone should ask Lucas before God gets lonely again.
>>214821261Valkorion and Nihilus would have laughed at him if either of them were canon
>>214821440Good thing his name got changed at first coz dashit.
>>214821993Naw, cuz, 'cause Cos Dashit was da shit, b.
Sheev would have won if he just knew how to shut off the force lightning
>>214821261>>214821440this is a disney invention, best EU headcanon is that he shares his father's name, Cosinga
>>214822119You can't just turn off the lighting on a dime, or else it stings.Women never understand this.
>>214822135>this is a disney inventionIn 1997?
>>214822170no when that novel about notorious homosexual wilhuff tarkin was released
>>214822206>notorious homosexual wilhuff tarkinWhat
>>214821440>>214821616Imagine worshiping Lucas when he nearly gave us such idiocy
>>214822280>worshiping Why do so many anons insist on projecting extreme behavior onto others sight unseen? If I appreciate his work and his thoughts, then it's worship, but if I called him bad names I'd be a bigot. And by the way, the original Star Wars, not the sequel or anything else, is a work of sheer brilliance and reaches sublime heights in its original cut.
>>214821261I suppose you'd prefer it if his name was something kewl like Hellscream or Shadowblade.
>>214822347Thomas Abyss Palpatine His school buddies called him Taps.
>>214821261>most powerful Sith lord who ever livedHe isn't even in top 10.
>>214821616>Lucas almost made Sheev an incel, who was wronged by a gangster woman.Probably his worst decision ever, it's a good thing the show wasn't made even if the leaked footage though rough looked nice.
>>214822252>he doesn't know
>>214822574Now that looks official.
>>214821701Uh. No. Sidious would have stomped on them. Also. Star Wars power level arguments are fucking retarded. EU writers weren’t ever on the same page ever.
>>214822459He’s quite literally in the top ten. Easily top three. Canonically number one.
>>214821261Nothing compared to the powers of Darth Icky and Darth InsaniusThose were the truly powerful ancient sith lords that made Sheev look like a little kid
>>214822459Lorefags OUTMovies Palpatine is in the Top 3 at minimumMaybe only Prime Yoda or Muh-Rey Sue fused with Kylo's Force spirit can be up to debateHe literally states that he's ALL the Siths
>>214822459 EU tumblr fanfiction tier slop doesnt count
>>214822570>Probably his worst decision everHis worst decision was to make Sheev's appearance the result of him frying himself with lightning rather than it being the effect of dark side decay like every viewer and EU writer had assumed.
>>214822602https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Of_MSE-6_and_Mentl;dr this retarded short story reveals that tarkin and the stormtrooper whose armor han solo stole on the death star were prodding each other's trash compactors
Darth Trannicus is the most powerful Sith with his unmatched evil.
>>214822252One of the short stories in this book is about Tarkin grooming TK-412 if I remember correctly, another is about how the Dianoga that dragged Luke under the water was actually trying to baptise him kek.
>>214822743>some mentally ill dude's fantasy>itdz toetally canon--it was re-VEELED guize
>>214821261Better than Bloop Dindoo or some other Star Wars name
>>214822769>another is about how the Dianoga that dragged Luke under the water was actually trying to baptise himHA! WhatAre you sure that isn't parody?
> "The Rebels were turning out to be more troublesome than many had expected. The Emperor had known it would be thus, of course; the resistance had not been a surprise to him. The Emperor was completely in concert with the dark side of the Force. He was the most powerful Sith to have ever existed."-- Death Star, page 76.> "...Yoda could not hope to defeat the most powerful Sith Lord in history."-- The New Essential Chronology, page ??? (I don't own the book). > "Beyond the vision of the Jedi Knights, somewhere within the darkness, the greatest master of evil ever to use Sith power bides his time. As his strength grows, his plans begin to shape the course of the galaxy, and his snares await the unsuspecting."-- The Complete Visual Dictionary, page 72. > "Palpatine has risen from the dead. The most powerful Sith Lord who ever lived had returned."-- Dark Empire Sourcebook, page 109> "He gave up everything to the Dark Side long ago. He has become the greatest who ever lived. He is the strongest who ever lived....I say we give what he wishes."-- Empire's End> "No. Exar Kun, Naga Sadow and the others are on a firmly lower tier than Emperor Palpatine."-- Star Wars Insider, Kevin J. Anderson, upon asked if he ever intended his Sith to be stronger than the OT Sith> "Palpatine at his peak."-- On TFN.net, official response to the strongest Sith in history

Sheev was basically a capital-w Wizard in Sith ways. He could create new dark side powers on a whim. He understood the nature of the Dark Side like no other. He *knew* how it worked.

Darth Niggerus
>>214822886Darth SandyThat should have been Anakin's new name if we're all being honest.
Reminder that Sheev always looked evil he just used the force lightning excuse to make it look like “natural causes”

>>214822822Nope! Not a parody. Who knows what the other stories are like.https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/The_Baptist
>>214823015>didn't clickLet me guess, it escaped the Death Star via its own space ship?
Sheev in the comics could literally rip apart planets and suck the life out of billions living on them.
>>214823198He could also steal bodies like a parasite which is how he survived death. His dark side powers were so strong he couldn’t stay in a clone body for very long before it fell apart and disintegrated.

It just occurred to me that "Darth" is a gender neutral title, because women like Darth Traya (who betrayas you) also have it. Very forward-thinking of the Sith, maybe they've been misrepresented by jedi historians.

>>214823198>>214823225Just because something was made didn't make it canon. Authors put out dozens of ideas, some outrageously stupid, others fantastic, and fans decided on a canon consensus that everyone was happy with. Same thing with the dumb suncrusher. There's a reason it's only in one shit book and not in every story related to star wars. The fandom was better when it eas this way. Ideas were free to experiment with and see if they were hits or not. And the audience wasn't just lumped with garbaged and told to eat it and enjoy it or get out
>>214821701>Nihilus would have laughed at himoh the guy who is a death star would have laughed at himwell i have created my own darth who can absorb a sun who laughs at your planet eating guy
>>214824023What’s canon or non-canon is a debate even today, anon. I hardly consider Disney to be absolute canon. No one does. The EU is vastly more creative and inspirational.
>>214824072If I like it its canon. If I dont like it its noncanon. Simple as.
>>214824072Canon isn't really important, it's quality that matters. I don't accept the KOTOR games as canon due to the flimsy premise that 4000 years ago the galaxy was almost exactly the same but for a few superficial details. Yet I do accept them as good Star Wars because they tell entertaining stories and that's as much as can be asked of the franchise.
>>214821261i'm sure his mother just somehow knew he was destined to become a sith lord and emperor of the galaxy so she purposely named him Sheev
