Basic Info| Name: | Emperor Palpatine, Dark Lord Of Sith |

BioIn a nutshell, I'm the supreme ruler of the most powerful tyrannical regime the galaxy has ever witnessed, yet my roots are extremely humble, traced back to the peaceful world of Naboo.
Before my rise to power, I was an unassuming yet ambitious senator in the Galactic Republic. I saw the Republic crumbling about me, torn apart by partisan bickering and corruption. All too common were those unscrupulous senators taking advantage of the system, growing fat and wealthy on a bureaucracy too slow to catch them... I hated those guys... Except the Kennedy... he was pretty cool... and a great drinker!
My moment of opportunity came as a result of a trade embargo. The Trade Federation, in protest of government measures that would tax their outlying trade routes, blockaded and invaded Naboo. Naboo's planetary leader, Queen Amidala, rushed to Coruscant for my aid... cuz I'm a total stud. Together, we pleaded to the senate for intervention, only to see our request stalemated by Trade Federation filibustering. Frustrated by the government's inability to do anything, Queen Amidala acted upon my suggestion, and called for a Vote of No Confidence in the Republic's leadership... cuz they suck ass, totally.
Chancellor Valorum was voted out of office, and I was soon nominated to succeed him, of course. The crisis on Naboo created a strong sympathy vote, and I became Chancellor. I promised to reuinite the disaffected, and bring order and justice to the government... sure, whatever.
Despite my promises, the Republic continued to be mired in strife and chaos. In an effort to counter this, I instituted a military build-up unprecedented in galactic history. I created the New Order, a Galactic Empire that ruled by tyranny. The Jedi Knights, my biggest threat, were extinguished by my greatest dark side pupil: Anakin Skywalker, who had become Darth Vader. They grow up so fast, don't they?
