If you guys want to read the book this video is based on, then you should definitely check out "Lords of the Sith". Its one of my favorite Star Wars books, and in my personal top 3 within the new Canon books (behind Lost Stars and Thrawn).
Kind of weird that all the really good stuff is going to the Books and Comics and not the movies, but what do I know?
Well they can't explain every thing in the movies or shows. They can go deeper into the lore of anyone like smoke with a series of comics
Great Vid! May the force be with you!
krystian parris I don't need them to explain everything, I just need the movies to not suck.
I wouldn't think it was that hard.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England did you see the last jedi
Made me wonder if I was even needed.
Imperial Guard #25 You were there to look cool.
That too.
NAOOOO.
Imperial Guard #25 if you're number 25 what happened to the other 24 guards before you?
All committed suicide after news of the Emperor's death hit them.
Guard 1: ''Then what the heck does he need us for??''
Guard 2: ''Merchandise Terry, merchandise.''
They are here to deceive and intimidat, not for protection.
Imperial guards were designed by Kenner after all.
Merchandising! Space balls is the best
@@viceonafridaynight lies
that guy Noah J you are right I wonder what the imperial guard equivalents would be
The guards probably thought "Why the hell does palpatine even need us"
Well that's a simple answer, to deal with the rabble.
Hans to spy on Vader
For real i probably wouldve said that to him afterwards like
Sir....what the fuck even is my job
What...do you mean
Well sir if you can tank an army of rebels like that....what good am i you dont really need a body guard
Ah....i see
Well, sir?
Im kinda lazy
Ahhhh thanks for clarifying sir
IS0T0P3_90 From memory, Palpatine didn't actually sleep in the traditional sense for that reason. He was too paranoid. He used some sort of meditative state that allowed him to gain restfulness but retain awareness of his surroundings.
Hans Palpatine
clone veteran : shit order 66 missed one
Daniel Outlaw 😂😂😂 yes!
Daniel Outlaw that guard was prolly so shocked this whole time he thought the Empire was just and old man
Bud, he knows
@@abemartinez9623 do you mean the senate?
They after Jedi not sith
This looks more like Palpatines day off. Going to a desolate wilderness to kill a bunch of randoms things and people.
A weird way to spend your day off.
Yeah exactly, he was just letting off some steam
His daily exercise
You know he’s badass when his “day off” is fighting giant monsters
Ever wonder how he got so good at combat? Him and plagueis used to visit some remote hostile planet and fight the natives just to practice their abilities. It was a sith tradition to visit this planet when the rule of two was put in place. So yes, quite literally his days off were to kill random people and things lol.
What a conundrum the guard ended up in. On one side, he knows the person he is guarding doesn't need him at all, so he can relax. On the other side, the person he is guarding can kill him with a thought so he can't relax.
And he better not say anything to him about "why do u need me then ?"
When you realize that your purpose is not to protect the Emperor, but to mercifully kill those trying to kill him.
Schrodinger's chill
Bet you that guard wonder if he was even necessary as a guard
Probably was thinking well worst case this guy can protect me haha.
Fayt Albel true
Fayt Albel (X) Doubt
Palpatine: On Tuesdays, you're primary task shall be applying copious amounts of lotion to my back.
The guards: Wait, what? We trained our whole lives in the most prestigious branch of the military to rub lotion on some old man's back?
Palpatine: Hey! My back is very wrinkly! It requires weekly applications of lotion to maintain the skin integrity! Also, I have UNLIMITED POWER!!! (Shoots lightning everywhere)
(beat)
The guards: Would you prefer extra moisturizer or extra SPF?
Palpatine: >:)
Ahmad Salom Meat sheald
Doesn’t anybody hate how they never show this badasserry on screen?
Elemental Jedi I KNOW RIGHT!!!
Nah, it just makes the books important too.
Nah, it just makes the books important too.
It sucks i know. Especially if theres a good enough story behind it let the chaos out on the big screen
Jethro Marwick I actually disagree. Not everything needs to be shown on film. It’s actually a really smart idea to keep these stories for the expanded universe. I know people don’t want to read a book about a movie, but in this case I feel like it’s a good idea, there are too many stories to tell for the series to be movies only.
After Sidious tells the guards to leave them on the Death Star;
"...Should we really leave him alone with this Jedi? I mean it's our job to protect him."
"Gary, he can destroy armies with a flick of his wrist. I think he'll be fine. Now lets go check out this place's omelette bar!"
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England well...he was wrong!!
Wasn't Gary banned from the bar for that braking incident?
XD
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England 😂 omfg
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England hehe that’s robot chickenn
Right after the Emperor pulled out a lightsaber and used the force, Vader should have pulled the clone guard aside and said “Look! The emperor is a secret Jedi! Execute Order 66!”
Wtf lmao
Lol
Lolololololololololololololol
😂😂😂😂😂
Big brain
They saw him in his true image
The Senate
Melese Getahun well.... Then it's *treason then*
Melese Getahun i am the senate
Melese Getahun what do u mean?
Mary Vivero That's what palpatine said to mace windu before he killed him
Melese Getahun oh
I mean when you're sitting on a throne all day and doing a bunch of politic work plus you're really powerful, who wouldnt act like lunatic killing things everywhere
Captain23rd Gaming his last enjoyment using his power. I would do everything but becoming an old man sucks.
A good person.
Diana Cavendish *Snicker...* Define "good" for me, sweetheart.
Captain23rd Gaming - That's probably how every great RPG character ends up. On a throne bored out of their mind, just waiting for the next battle to start.
+Mr O i honostly have to agree with you there xD
They were "stunned" when they saw palpatine using his powers...
Darth Vader: Apparently, just as stunned as Fisto & Tinn.
Darth Vader I will finish what you started!!!
nice punn
It was...... *shocking*
:)
His guards were "shocked" to see The Emperor use the Force. Ha.
501st Legion nice picture 😂
I read your comment without looking at your name and thought 501st Legion commented on his own picture, haha.
401st is better
State your number stormtrooper
CORUSCANT GUARD Commander THORN BOI *KILLS HIM*
Royal Guard: "Get behind us your Excellency!"
Palpatine: "Am I a joke to you?"
Lol
LOL
Lol
Lol
The following day...
Guard 1: My emperor, forgive my impertinence but you were really amazing yesterday.
Guard 2: With the somersaults and lightning and...
Palpatine: I work out. I'm not really a Force user or anything. Just good old fashioned exercise.
Guards: Right...
Guard 1 was dead...
this is beautiful
Well, that's basically DBZ logic lol. Just be a Saiyan and work out till the end of time with hundreds of times normal gravity and you'll have UNLIMITED POOOWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
“Thunderbolts and Lightning very very frightening....”
palpatine: “MEEE!!”
guard one: “GALILEOOO”
guard two: “GALILEOOOO”
guards and palpy: “GALILEOOO FIGARO!”
Vader busts out of throne room elevator
“BEEEELZEBUB HAS A DEVIL SET A SIDE FOR MEEEEEEE....”
-Guards and Emperor stop singing and quietly stare-
Vader: “AHEMMMM, i meeeaaan, WHAT IS THY BIDDING MY MASTAAA?”
@@coops3600 you dont have to be a saiyan in dbz to become powerfulfrom training. Yamchavl, piccolo, tien, and chiatzu all improved quicker than goku king kais planet
Sounds like quality father and son time, Sheev and Anakin were having.
He'd probably be so bummed he'd kill this guy.
Vader would never go that far!
Really?
And the guards are his weird sunburned uncles?
I agree just another father and son day
*100 Lylek come stampeding towards Palpatine*
Palpatine: A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one!
*Lylek screeches at him*
Palpatine: Are you _threatening_ me, space lizard?
*overwhelming autistic screeching*
Palpatine: (To the Lylek) It’s treason then.
The Hive Mind will decide your fate.
"See Anakin I was right... The lyleks are taking over !!!!"
"Master your literally under a pile of their corpses that you made is this really nesce.."
"No...NO *NOOOO* y...oh I mean of course it is !"
I can only imagine Palpatine cutting all Lyleks while BFG division [ DOOM 2016 ost. Falkkone version ] is playing in the background
Surviving guard "I'm just here for decoration, aren't I?"
Yes you are, son, yes you are!
He also said: I killed my best mate at the end of training and was given a job and I’m not allowed to do it?
4:49 I bet everytime the surviving guard was assigned to protect Palpatine, he couldn't help but to think "Oh good, a chill day."
well except they been through alot even before they became guards, their training are harsh and unforgiving to which they all die and one is the only worthy enough to be a guard, they should be earning some break tho, sheev's a lazyass anyway
@@xylonus Tht was pointless lol
They definitely were not aware of his UNLIMITED POWER
Just like how no one knew that the JEDI ARE TAKING OVAH
UNLIMITED PPOOOWWAAAHHH*
Bcs those guards were not there and also Yoda knocked them out to avoid that they saw his secret powers
Is lore master jedi or a sith?
He's a secret Klingon. Calling it now.
Darth Vader he is neutral I think.
Darth Vader Gray Jedi I suppose...
Omnic
Darth Vader I think Lore Master is a Grey Jedi or just a wandering storyteller who learns and writes history
documents them and learn and describe what is the force
Surprised that Darth Sidious didn’t say “UNLIMITED POWER” while using Force Lighting.
And in his suit,Vader rolls his eye's.😋
They need to make a mini movie about this!
Ok
Lol how star wars should have ended: empire uses force lightning on every rebel ship
Until he gets pushed off one of those high grounds people keep building.
Spoilers
U sorta predicted it my man
@@thedr34m7 disney canon isn't real
@@bobmcbob49 I want to agree with u... But what can we do... Kidnap Mickey?
THAT'S the same ending in Rise of Skywalker
"he began to remove a portion of his cloak, revealing his hidden lightsaber."
Sounds like the start of a bad sex joke.
“Baby you about to experience the full power of the senate”
Yep that’s 2 different palpatine memes
Did Governor Pyrce really celebrate with Palpatine
I think she only met with Mas Amedda. Palpatine was known to rarely go out in public during the later years of the Empire.
Thanks, that's something that always bothered me in Rebels, I was wondering if they just lied about it
I'm sure Ol' Palps got out on Empire Day at least. I mean that would be THE time to let the public see him. Although it might be cool if he didn't by the time of RotJ.
Wolfgod 64 in the canon thrawn novel, (and I may have painted the wrong picture in my mind - as this was a book and not as clear as a movie or tv show) but I felt like palpatine was just sitting on a throne in the ground floor of the “imperial palace” (which is pretty open, not open to the public, but open as in like, massive open entrance ways kind of stuff, man my vocabulary is awful today ahah) but yeah, the part where thrawn and Eli go to meet palpatine, I felt like he wasn’t all that hidden away, like If someone was looking into a telescope from a 7-11, (errr.. or an admiral snackbar?) across the street from the palace, they’d be able to see him sitting there. Of course, I may have pictured that scene all wrong, I also might not even be remembering it right, maybe they weren’t even at the imperial palace in that scene.
Juju the Homs she wouldn't even survive in his presence.
Palpatine is a straight up psychopath. Best villain in fiction.
He is so cartoonishly evil.
Royal guard 1: “oh shit, we are working for a Sith Lord, can you believe it?”
Royal guard 2: nowhere in sight
Royal guard 1: “Ben?”
>Known as Darth Sidious
>People got surprised when he used the force
Ironic
Ocean Man He was only known as "Emperor" at that time by people.
To the Galaxy, he was still Sheev palpatine. No one knew he was Sith, save a select few.
No one knew that he was Darth Sidious, He was still Sheev Palpatine, The Emperor, most of people tought that he's just old man
His apprentice DID openly call himself "DARTH Vader" though. If his apprentice is openly using his Sith title, you would think it would be pretty easy to deduce that he was one as well. After all, "Always two there are," and no Sith master would ever serve a non-force-sensitive Emperor.
EnderDragonFire only the Jedi knew about the rule of two. And most people don't know that the sith are a thing, Just calling them Jedi
Can you do a video on the Shadow guards?
Of course :)
wow I got a reply awesome!
Juju the Homs what are the shadow gaurds
Guards*
The Lore Master yeah you should do that it would be an interesting topic
Did you ever here the revelation of Darth Sideous the crazy?
It's not a story the royal guards would tell you.
It was said that he had the power to defend himself from his enemies.....
Mas Amedda was the only other exception. He witnessed Palpatine blast Yoda with Force lightning in RotS and lived to tell about it.
I read that book- it was fun, decently well written, and Palpatine was a surprisingly engaging and fun viewpoint character. And your description of his attitude and manner in the story summarizes it very vividly- especially how you describe the battle in the lylek nest. I laugh now to remember page after page of this. It was like Palp's fight with Yoda except he was having even more fun. It was... joyful.
So why did Palpy actually need guards that were so well trained? Why not just some regular Stormtroopers or Death Troopers? If they were killed, Palpy could've dealt with anything that came his way himself.
I think it's part of his illusion as an old, feeble man
They don't protect Palpatine from his enemies, they protect his enemies from Palpatine.
because Sidious did not wan't to reveal his identity to anyone. The only people who Palpatine allowed to know he was a sith were Vader, his imperial guards and in legends a handfull of others. In some dangerous situations Palpatine wanted people to come out alive, if he revealed his powers everyone present had to die. Also the Guards were sent on missions for palpatine which required highly trained individuals, missions which were important but not worth the time of Palpatine or Vader. Also they're part of Palpatine's public image.
Becouse Sidious pretends that he's fragile old man, and He can't use Force in Public becouse people would notice, so he had guards
Darth Vader
I just found a rebel base my lord there are 1977 billion Jedi among them I think they’re looking for you
Sidious must have been bored to all hell on that day.
If he willing to got that far yah he bord as hell
They were _shocked_ at their Emperor use his *_UNLIMITED POWER!!!_*
Allen Murallo he said white power.
*UNLIMITED POWEH*
Cables
Guards: “We’re gonna die. We’re gonna die! WE ARE SO GOING TO DIE!!!
Vader: “Really wish I still had force lightning.”
Palpatine: “Chaos, CHAOS. I can do anything!”
Palpie always enjoyed some fun. The Royal Guards were obviously there to protect others from the Emperor, not the other way around.
Royal Guards be like: "Why the fuck do we even need to protect him?"
royal guard asks why are we here emperor like your armor kind of pretty it like inspires me
*UNLIMITED POWAAAHHH!!!!!*
man! im reading this book right now (dark lords of the sith) and its soooo good im like 1 chapter after this part
SeqZzzッ I'm going to read it soon. Hype :D
well you're going to have fun reading it. it's so good
"Palpatine used force lightning, the royal guards were shocked"
bu dum tss
Sounds like a Holonet News headline. "Emperor Palpatine uses The Force, Royal Guards left shocked!"
rofl
Tell ya, Lords of the Sith has been one of the best New Canon books so far that I've read. Great story but where it truly shines is most definitely showing just how both powerful and maniacal Sidious was. And getting more chances to see him in combat action was quite fulfilling.
So the crazy back flipping all powerful dude couldn't stop himself from being picked up carried and yeeted into a hole?
I'm sure the guard was most afraid of angering Palpatine enough to become a plaything of his. And he knew he was there not to protect Palpatine, but to protect the visitors from ever angering Palpatine to the aforementioned point by swiftly ending them.
Vader: *Fighting for his life against Lyleks.
Palpatine: “Looking strong, Vader.”
vader robot body hinder him alot and whatever left of his force power.
Tag and Bink where those guys.
Headcanon: Accepted
but that means one of them died..
Hostile Crocodile but its Tag and Bink, they can't die...
ya but the clone royal guard died tho
They weren't tough
He is The Senate
UNLIMITED POWER
It's treason then....
The guards wanted to quit and resign. But the benefits including free dental care was something they could not pass up.
God i want this as a standalone movie, that would be so cool. This book was amazing and i really hooe disney makes a movie about this
THEone RECKER I don't.
Disney would make the guards all women and be more powerful than Sidious. Be grateful for these books being as great as they are.
Immagine of they have walked into a Xenomorph hive. That would have been badass ...
Definitely not, look up vader vs xenomorph queen, doesnt end well for vader
Scientifically speaking
The only thing that would walk out would be force sensitive xenos
Zaine Holt But Sidious would turn those xenomorphs into dust.
I bet the guards were thinking “Why the hell does he need us then?”
I was playing heros vs villains on Battlefront II today and this guy messages me saying “I’m reporting you because you stole all my kills” can they even do that lol?
And this is why the Emperor is my favorite character
Palpatine rarely even fights, he is more of a influential and behind the shadows threat, which is why every time he actually gets his hands dirty very cool to watch
Did rebel leaders such as Bail Organa and Mon Mothma know or suspect what Palpatine was? They certainly knew about the Jedi, they knew about Vader, and knowledge of the sith or at least the dark side of the force was certainly available to them.
bail was a friend to both yoda and obi wan and picked up yoda after his duel with palpatine so he knew
I like this but the bad thing is there should be a spoiler warning since this is nearly all of the story of the book reduced from 10 hours to 5 minutes.
What if the surviving guard became one of the Preatorian guards of Snoke?
_MaZ_ He would be too old.
^
And how do you know what his age is?
He's adult solider, he's at least 22-28 years old, and this happend around 3-4 years After ROTS so TLJ happends 49 years later so he would be over 70, so he would be way too old
Darth Vader anything is possible with monster drinks
Master of the Lore... Darth... Lore... I have an idea... Could you do a video about thr history of the starwars galaxy but through the perspective of the StarWars Battlefront games? (like BF2005, BF elite Squadron, Renegade Squadron, etc) you dont have to include the new bf2.
Your videos are great and the royal guards are awesome.
Thanks!
Why did the empire decide to stop using clones? As in, why didn't they create more? When the race that made the clones rebelled, were they all killed and are there no other cloning facilities in the galaxy?
So the guards were just a facade but could actually pack a pucnch if neccasery but emperor palpatine was more then capable of defending himself since only vader the moffs and grand admirals and his royal body guards and only a few select group
Since, they..... what?
Vader: guard the emperor
That one guard: wait
Royal guard so uh watcha doing there
Palpatine UNLIMITED POWER
No it's.......POWAAAHHH!😳
4:43 some new threat near Palpatine rears it's head and the guard is like "Oh he'll be fiiiiiiiine"
Even though he is a bad guy I bet Palpatine honored that guard in someway for his sacrifice to the empire.
You said the guards were "SHOCKED" to see Palpatine use the kind of power 😂
That*
Stunned actually
The Guards probably shit there paints.
I wonder how Darth plagius guards reactioned to him using his powers.
Pants😑
Darth plagueis didnt have guards, you fuck.
Then the injured Darth Vader picks up the sith lord with one hand like he weights nothing and throws him in the abyss of the death star. This is how the strongest sith lord of the galaxy dies. George Lucas!.... You are a disgrace.
That one guard who survived - probably was the one who would become warlord and attempt to kill Kir Kanos - all that he saw would prove he needed more than his skills as a warrior, he needed the force.
Surely Palpatine should have killed the human guard too, if he didn’t want many people seeing him using the force to his full power. (Because while yes, that guard did know he could use it, I doubt he knew just how powerful he was).
I can never not imagine him saying *UNLIMMMMMETEEED POWAAAAAH* every time he uses lightning
I think the prequels and expanded universe get Palpatine wrong. I don't think he ever needed a lightsaber. That is what made him so great in Return of the Jedi.
I bet they were thinking “why the hell do *I* need to protect *HIM* “
Star Wars fans will never admit this, but 80% of the Force just makes you slightly better at 1 on 1 combat, and 20% of it is used as Plot Hole Duct Tape.
Royal guard afterwards: Guard his excellency...HIS EXCELLENCY ENEMIES NEEDS IT FAR MORE THAN THAT DANCING LUNATIC DOES!!
If you can please explain the royal guards in the last Jedi movie, bc they didn't seem as powerful as they should have been
indeed, i am by far more powerful than you could problably imagine.
The Emperor then why do u need guards
Mr Happy That was a joke, right?
The Emperor depends... am I going to die?
Mr Happy You are already dead.
The Emperor damn you are the most powerful sith (is a force ghost)
Can you do a video on what if during the clone wars episode death trap betrayed the bounty hunters and joined the other clones or what if darth Vader stopped tarkin from destroying alderan
100's of feet big...
So episode wasn't the last time palpatine used his lightsaber plus why did he use it to deflect blaster fire he as i know only like to use sabers to mock the jedi.
Awesone
If it’s a “secret” that Palpatine was a Sith Lord, why did he very openly and loudly discuss turning Luke to the dark side in front of hundreds of stormtroopers and officers? This was in Return of the Jedi right after he lands on the Death Star.
“This is the official Star Wars canon.”
My reaction: Yeeeesssss
“Also known as the Disney canon”
My reaction: NOOOOOOOOOO
Whenever you feel useless, remember that Imperial Royal Guards exist
Emperor Palpatine : I can take on 2 armored battle ready ships, a horde of giant monsters, and a small army of gun wielding mercenaries all by myself, and I will find it enjoyable.
Royal "guard" : Am I a joke to you?
Why dosen't papitine fight much
hey The lore master how can luke possibly be one of the most powerful Jedi's ever if he wasn't trained by the age of 0 and up please make a video about it
Training?
This is not the Canon you're looking for.
He was apart of the Chosen One bloodline, so the force was super powerful within him from the start. Because of that, he didn't need as much time to learn things as other force sensitives. He was basically a prodigy in the force.
I know BUY what if he wasn't eh eh and maybe Obi-wan-kenobi was the chosen one and not anakin but the prequels will still be the same anakin turning evil and stuff
It's easy to be the most powerful Jedi when you're the Last Jedi.
CT-4356 Wreck tf u mean?
Super powerful in the force, but couldn't stop himself from falling to his death. How did that work?
It makes me wonder why Palpatine allowed the guard to survive.
M B They were extremely loyal and trained to be as secretive as could be.
Plus having head of security know what he can do will help when the Jedi attack... This was resources aren't sent to the wrong places
Yoda slammed his head against the wall and he forgot everything later that day.
"Even Vader was exhausted"
Ain't his legs mechanical?
His lower legs were cut off but not his thighs
After Palpatine died and before the Death Star II exploded, this Royal Guard managed to escape and blend in with a Rebel cell. He later escaped to Hutt space and wrote a tell-all book about his time with the Emperor, which became a galactic bestseller.
This is one of the many reasons why Palpatine is my favorite Sith.
This is the moment when you realise hundreds of hours of boring guardduty in front of an old "weak" man was all for naught. :P
There were more than 2 for a while . And there were certainly more than 2 that knew of his power. Also Vader was not exhausted.
I thought he lost is lightsaber so how could this be cannon. Has Disney decided to make it cannon.
Force lightning: heated and concentrated enough to melt through metal plate from spaceship but take more than 2 movies to nearly a human?
Can you make a video of how Revan and Malak's sith empire. How did it form. What was Revans big plans for the Galaxy?
