  1. Palpatine

    Sheev Palpatine (also known by his Sith identity Darth Sidious and publicly as Senator Palpatine, then Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, and later Emperor Palpatine) is a fictional character and one of the primary antagonists of the Star Wars franchise, mainly portrayed by Ian McDiarmid. In the original trilogy, he is depicted as the aged, pale-faced and cloaked Emperor of the Galactic Empire and the Sith master of Darth Vader. In the prequel trilogy, he is portrayed as a middle-aged charismatic Senator from Naboo who uses deception and political manipulation to rise to the position of Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic before transforming the Republic into the Empire. Though outwardly appearing to be a well-intentioned public servant and supporter of democracy prior to being Emperor, Palpatine's true identity is actually Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith – a cult of practitioners of the dark side of the Force previously thought to have been extinct for a millennium, and master of Darth Maul and Count Dooku. As his Sith identity, he is the mastermind behind the Clone Wars conflict. Playing both sides of the Republic and the Separatists, as Chancellor, Palpatine uses the conflict as a convenient pretext to maintain a military–industrial complex and gain more political power by abusing his "emergency powers" to stay in office long after his term has expired. Palpatine ultimately reorganizes the Republic into the Galactic Empire, declared martial law, outlawed the Jedi Order as traitors who had attempted to assassinate him, having most purged through Order 66, and declaring himself as Emperor. He also manipulates Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker into turning to the dark side and serving as his new apprentice. Palpatine rules the galaxy for over two decades before his reign is brought to an end when Vader turns on him and kills him in order to save his son, Luke Skywalker who was being electrocuted by Palpatine. Since the initial theatrical run of Return of the Jedi, Palpatine has become a widely recognized popular culture symbol of evil, sinister deception, dictatorship, tyranny, and the subversion of democracy.
