Palpatine Was More Of A Heretic Than True Sith

There’s Plenty of Evidence

The probable fact that Palpatine was scorn by the ancient Sith Lords does tail with his entire story . Darth Sidious was far more of a Sith religious outcast who bent and broke the rulesrather than being a traditional Dark Lord . Not only did Palpatine blend sour side alchemy with engineering to prolong his life history , but he also had very slight awe for the Rule of Two . Case in full stop , none of the Sith Palpatine trained would in all probability debate him to be a truthful Sith Lord either .

Dooku was trained while Maul was still Palpatine ’s apprentice . Likewise , Vader was groom and manipulated into eventually link up Palpatine ’s side for years while Dooku was still Sidious ' prentice as Darth Tyranus . Palpatine also did n’t train a replacement following his resurrection , and the contingency enacted after his dying would have guarantee that Vader could n’t have strike his imperium or powerhad his prentice not also died and been redeemed back to the light source by end Palpatine ’s rule .

Although Palpatine wielded the power of the saturnine side with an army of followers at his mastery , the melodic theme that he was a pure theatrical of " All the Sith " and their legacy is pretty ludicrous . Palpatine was n’t a on-key Sith Lord . He used the Sith across the entireStar Warstimeline , render to their traditions and code only when it was to his ultimate benefit and helped him achieve greater power in the sinister side .
