    In the novelization of ROTJ, when the Rebels are sneaking around outside the shield bunker, Han says something (I'm paraphrasing) "I just hope Luke can keep Vader off our backs". They all knew that if Vader were in that shield bunker, they were done. He WAS The Bogeyman.

He thought he was more important to Vader than his own son. Even after baiting Luke to kill Vader. The same way Anakin killed Tyranus, to become Lord Vader.

    Even before watching the video, I'm already guessing that Sideous kept his Sith identity hidden, but Vader was allowed to reveal his identity as a Sith lord, simply in a power play, because people already feared Vader as it is, but that he wasn't the brains of the operation for the Empire. With that being said, if they discovered that Sideous was a Sith, as well as Vader's master, it'd be a testament to how brilliant and powerful Sideous was, almost as if a realization would set in that the galaxy truly belongs to Sideous.

    • @Halloweendm

      Sidious kept his Sith-ness secret because it would cause open defiance and fracture the Empire just as it was getting started. A few beyond Vader knew, like Mas Amedda and Sly Moore, but few others.

      I am 46 years old and grew up hearing .. rumors .. from my elders.
      Now we have YT to view news reports from since record media we can comb through.
      Just look at the past 16years of current USA/ world political corruption and how people deal with it or act like it not happening.
      Looking at human behavior across our world, you think humans would be any different in another galaxy ?
      Back at the start of 911 under Bush Jr.
      I was in a junior community college and been playing WotC 3e D&D/Star Wars for the past 4 or so years.
      My 17 to 23 year old classmates didn't know who Luke Skywalker was, but they have heard, " Luke, I'm your mother !"
      Along with at any given time if you ask people off the top of their head Who Is, .. the Us vice president, secretary of state, USSR, ever seen the movie Rambo III and who were the good guys of that film ?
      In Star Wars legends of the novel series during the 1990's, they came out the Skywalker twins were Vader's children a couple of years after Endor. With a few sub plots most of the galaxy really didn't care or were too busy with their own little lives to bother with greater politics and who is related to who. I live in a small town and our state politics been out of hand for all my life.
      Asking if Palpatine was a Sith is like asking which Usa president was a Freemason. To most it doesn't matter.
      b.) Few points about legends early novels, .. Sith Spawn has been a slur/curse before Vader showed up. And there were still battle droids in scrap yards from a thousand years ago.
      Han Solo trilogy, an imperial ran a record check on the name Vader. Due to the scale of the old Sith empires of the past, Vader meant " Him " in over fifty system languages across Hutt space. More along the lines of, " Oh mother of god, F-ck ! .. It's HIM ! "
      By the time Han was in the service and went smuggler, imperials would just say its " Him." rather than say his name out loud for fear of being recorded.
      c.) By the time Han & Leia had the Solo twins, imperial first said it as a slur but later as a compliment referring to Princess Leia as Lady Vader. Cause she got things done along with cutting good deals.
      Mara Jade was referred to as Palpatine Daughter since was a grey Jedi raised Emperor Hand and her and Luke's son Ben by the time, he was 15 was regarded by old imperials as, .. " Palpatine's Heir."
      Other wise bad writing or the writers poking fun at the reads sense of logic. Please remember most comics were written for the reading level of an 8 to 14year old. And novels of pop fiction is for teenagers and mid twenties. You see things differently by your thirties.

    im not sure if a lot people knew if Vader was a former jedi in legends but it was maybe a handfull of people that knew vader was aniken. in the book where we see prince isolder (might remember the wrong name, but he was a leader of criminal organisation knowen as either dark or black sun duringing the imperial era) was a person that was aware of vaders true identity and in the book we see the thoughts of both sidious and the prince. sidious is thinking that as long as the prince never reveals that he is aware of vaders true identity he will be allowed to live but if he ever reveals it even to vader or sidious he would be killed. (might rememeber it a little wrong since its maybe 10 years since i read the story in question)

    Is there a reason Kenobi, or Yoda, didn't rat out Palpatine's truth to the wider galaxy? Sure, they were in hiding, so they wouldn't directly, but they easily could have told Bail Organa, if just to warn him, and then he spread it out as an effort to undermine the Emperor. Maybe they were both simply too ashamed, or didn't want to further damage the credibility of their own Order by drawing attention to a very similar one, in the eyes of the uninitiated, but it kind of seems odd that the Emperor had more worry about accidentally giving himself away, than his rivals trying to undermine him.

    I think Palpatine could have gotten away with it if he pretended to join the Sith after the "Jedi betrayal". Claiming he did so to defend himself and the empire against future Jedi aggression. Saying that Vader convinced him the change was needed. And I think he would have needed to out Anakin as Vader to pull it off seeing how Anakin was perceived to be a hero of the war giving the Sith a strong leg to stand on. Plus in doing so he'd likely imply he was only an apprentice to Vader, further concealing his over all capabilities to potential adversaries. But it would have been a risky move regardless. Keeping quiet was likely the best choice at the time.

They probably still would've lost but rebels separatists and the surviving jedi could do some damage and even expose his whole plot and without the death star being even close to complete lots could easily go wrong.
