Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life.... He had such a knowledge of the Dark side, he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful....the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did .Infortunnately , he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
If only he could have used his midi-chlorians to metabolism alcohol/intoxicants to sober up fast enough to realize that he was going to die and might have stopped Sidious from killing him somehow.
I love how Tenebrous, Plagueis, and Sidius were hiding in plain sight and even interacted with Jedi. Growing up with The Emperor ruling, I'm so used to Sith having power and being so formal. Always being called "Your Highness" and Vader always kneeling to his master. When before all that, they seemed almost equal.
Yes the last few members of the order of the Sith Lords really were the phantom menace. Hiding in plain sight right under the noses of the Jedi and they still never suspected or knew the truth until it was too late. The dark side blinded them
Plagueis succeeded in his experiment, because just nine months after he "failed," a slave named Shmi Skywalker gave birth to a fatherless son named Anakin. Anakin was conceived by the midi-chlorians, which Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious used to create a being out of pure Force energy. So in a way, Plagueis himself was Anakin's father. There is no other reason to explain how Palpatine turned him into Darth Vader so easily. Yet one of the wisest lessons taught by the Skywalker Saga is that nobody is truly beyond redemption. Anakin redeemed himself by destroying the Sith (twice), and fulfilling the prophecy of the Chosen One.
Plagueis didnt succeed. The wording of "counterstrike" is chosen specifically because it was the efforts of the force itself that brought Anakin into being. It took the Sith's attempt to create life and redirected it into its own Chosen One with a predetermined destiny leading to the eventual destruction of the Sith order.
Just Plageuis. Sidious helped with the balance tip but the act of creating Anakin, where the "force gave way, as if in flight from him" was all Plageuis. Right from the novel
@@nohbuddy1 some of us had the gift of the dub so the dialogue never sounded awful, plus those movies had tons of iconic locations and character designs which is more than i can say about the sequels 🤷🏻♂️
@@nohbuddy1 that's not the point, everybody loved Ventress and Ahsoka back in the day, the point is that disney nowadays would rather genderbend a known character before making an original one because god forbid you take a risk
Let me congratulate you, for your darth revan , bane and now plaeguis explanations. They are of amazing quality, you guys deserve lots of followers and views.
And people still hate the prequels despite this tragedy of Darth Plagueis and the Clone troopers And the best designed vehicle in star wars the HAVw A6 Juggernaut
Now, this is a story all about how my life as chancellor was flipped-turned upside down And I'd like to take a minute Just sit right there for a while I'll tell you how I became the Emperor of the first Galactic Empire
Palpatine was never named Sheev in the Legends continuity. The book Darth Plagueis actually stress that, with Palpatine's introduction, the boy had chosen to be mononymous.
Great video, awesome explanations! However, Palpatine's first name in the Legends continuity is not "Sheev"; he just doesn't have a forename there. I don't remember the exact reasons behind this, but it is explained in the book "Darth Plagueis" by James Luceno.
@Lockjaw I guess I'm not wrong. Look it up on Wookieepedia: _"Disgusted by his father's incompetence, and infuriated by his mother's willingness to tolerate the situation of their family, it was not long before Palpatine discontinued the use of his given name as an act of spite. From then on, he demanded to be referred to exclusively by the name of his aristocratic family."_ It *is* explained like this in the Novel "Darth Plagueis" by James Luceno, though it is not canon anymore, but "Legends". starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Palpatine/Legends
I really look forward to Snoke one day having his own video... so we may lean of this fascinating character in all his fleshed out details... who totally wasn't just tossed aside because there was no plan for him or the new trilogy and a certain director decided to just kill any of the plots his predecessor started in Force Awakens because "yolo! I've got a theme and it's KILL everything that's old! So no JJ I'm not using the outline you wrote, any of it, even though you started this trilogy and will be directing the 9th movie. Just consider yourself lucky I didn't have the Knights of Ren in this movie to, because I would have killed them off to(something Rian himself literally said about the KoR because he didn't know what HE would do with them)."
@@Spartiatai300 it would have complete sense to do that, a throwaway line from Luke referring to snoke as plagelus would have been enough, but rian Johnson doesn't have sense so...we got nothing..
You're all talking as though Rian and JJ didn't directly work together on the storyboard......... Y'all need to calm down, star wars is a dumb goofy space opera that rarely makes sense or even has all that decent a story, it's always been that, and I've always loved it regardless, you're taking this all a little too seriously hahahaha
The sad truth of the Sith, is their downfall is caused by their arrogance. Plagueis could have possibly lived if he wasn't so into himself being powerful. Maul would have stayed in one piece of he didn't play with his Jedi and finish the job. Palpatine needs to stop using lightning, he hurts himself or gets chucked into a reactor.

Another civilizationEx, another smile on my face. May i recommend you do a series on emperor valkorion, who lived hundreds of years and was probably the most powerfull sith lord of legends canon. He is also know as vitiate
Been wanting to read this one for a while to get myself back into reading in general with a familiar source material I love, just finished it last night and was amazed how much it held my attention. So much detail that pertains to the EU and has you reevaluate our opinion on TPM when you see the gears in motion. Of course, Plagueis and Palpatine prove to be enticing protagonists that come off more as anti-heroes as you see their mastery in deception and using any means necessary to achieve their plan. Must read for any Star Wars fan and arguably Top 5 EU/Legends novel.
This is the first time, in at least 4 years, that a video from this channel has been suggested to me. Wtf happened? i used to watch you all the time CivEx.
Not sure, maybe you have to check the notification settings cause I've been posting vids every week the whole time. Well at least you have plenty to look through now lol.
The Acolyte series description involves "Rising Dark Side powers near the end of the High Republic Era", and we know the HR ends around 82 BBY, so we could see Tenebrous (or someone similar) and Plagueis.
I want to thank you for making such a thorough and compelling video based on James Luceno’s novel. I hope Luceno gets the commission to write a Snoke novel. Andy Serkis said the character is several hundred years old. In the Force Awakens novelization, Snoke says he watched the Empire rise and fall. Based on how ancient he is and his ability to maneuver himself to become Supreme Leader of the First Order, I see the potential for a novel on the level and scope of Darth Plagueis. I’m looking forward to the Snoke comic coming in mid-September. Hopefully that will give some more insight into the character. I think he might be a Grysk. What do you think?
I feel like they left it open for pluegis to come back I still feel he's not dead as well as palpetine is not dead in the rise of a Skywalker movie. But sideous was dead before we heard of the movie so I still feel things arnt certain just yet. He may be influencing things From behind the scene.
The Jedi had become too arrogant, too sure of themselves including their quest for power, planning to take over the Senate, the Republic which makes them not that different from the Sith. 😉

I don't like that he lived in 67 BBY. It hardly makes him a "Sith legend" as Palpatine says in RotS. He lived 40-20 years earlier. It would be cooler if he was more ancient but then Palpatine could not be his apprentice
When I watched Revenge of the Sith, Darth Plaguies is quite an fascinating sith lord in the Star Wars galaxy, this story about him is really brilliant, the Legends, canon is much cooler.
I find it very satisfying that A’Sharad Hett started his journey to become Darth Krayt in order to destroy Vader and Palpatine, and yet it was only because Krayt was foreseen centuries earlier that Vader and Palpatine rose to power.
Could you please state the source material for your story on Darth Tenebrous. I'm quite familiar with the Darth Plagueis book and haven't seen some of the things you said about Tenebrous.
I hate how much better than Disney's Star Wars this is. Mostly because they made all this non-canon and Rian Johnson's BS legit.. seriously?!? I DARE Disney to put out something HALF as good as this. So far, we've gotten pointless side-stories and an incoherent trilogy... I'm almost happy Solo and Disney's new streaming service have bombed. They deserve it for what they've done to Star Wars, at the very least.

It's not a story the Jedi would tell you, but lucky for us, we have Civilization Ex instead.

Tenebrous idea of possessing the chosen one was really interesting I guess that’s why Plageuis also sought immortality
You left out the part where Plagueis’s essence survived and he takes on the identity of Supreme Leader Snoke.

The book literally states that Plagueis killed his master in 67 BBY
Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Darth plagues the wise... it’s not a story the Jedi would tell you.. oh wait we already know from this video
We need a Darth Plagueis Movie or at least a Mandalorian episode pls
Never gonna happend tbh

In Canon: Sheev Palpatine
In Legends: Palpatine
When I watched Revenge of the Sith, Darth Plaguies is quite an fascinating sith lord in the Star Wars galaxy, this story about him is really brilliant, the Legends, canon is much cooler.
I find it very satisfying that A’Sharad Hett started his journey to become Darth Krayt in order to destroy Vader and Palpatine, and yet it was only because Krayt was foreseen centuries earlier that Vader and Palpatine rose to power.
Great vid man
Has anyone heard the tragedy of my friend the Wise?
Could you please state the source material for your story on Darth Tenebrous. I'm quite familiar with the Darth Plagueis book and haven't seen some of the things you said about Tenebrous.
It's from "The Tenebrous Way" in Star Wars Insider 130, it's written from the perspective of Tenebrous in his final moments of life.
I'm pretty sure Plaegus didn't arrange the gas explosion. It was Tenabrous's enemies.
Did sidious unofficially end the rule of two since he kept Vader around as just the muscle
I don't think so due to Sidious chastising Plagueis for thinking he evolved beyond it.
Yes, he made the rule of one
Have you ever hea- actually I won't say it since everyone is doing it already lol
Hello There
GENERAL KENOBI
Darth plagueis ture son dark sidious
Only if they could make a movie of this with no NPC/SJW nonsense? A man can dream!
Is Darth Maul lockdown Canon ?
Because some of the no un canon parts are reintroduced in that novel.
I hate how much better than Disney's Star Wars this is. Mostly because they made all this non-canon and Rian Johnson's BS legit.. seriously?!? I DARE Disney to put out something HALF as good as this. So far, we've gotten pointless side-stories and an incoherent trilogy... I'm almost happy Solo and Disney's new streaming service have bombed. They deserve it for what they've done to Star Wars, at the very least.
Disney should revert to the old expanded universe.
What a tragedy.
You told the story of Darth Plagueis the wise
That means you are not a Jedi as its not a story they would tell
The more I think about it, the more I realize where I went wrong.
You should do one on Malak or malguis
