He's the one who had the clone army made, he's the one who got Palpatine elected, and he's the one who's force manipulations made the force create anakin to create "balance" but hands Palpatine an apprentice to help carry out his will.

    A lot of you dont realize that anakins ascension to darth vader was part of the force's plan to bring balance to the force. George Lucas confirmed this when denouncing the sequel trilogy. He says "Many people mistake that Luke is the chosen one who defeated the sith, but in reality Luke only aided Anakin to defeat the sith, but balance meant destroying the jedi order too, therefore, despite the empire and vader's atrocities, balance was still brought to the force by Anakin"
    Im heavily paraphrasing but basically anakin was the one who killed palpatine, not luke

    From what I have heard, Plaguis seems more inquisitive of Anakin than fearful of him. He might have been able to feel the great potential of the force in Anakin. I believe that he would strike a friendship with the boy and try to learn as much of him as possible. Being a businessman in the public spotlight he might have gone to Tatooine and brought Semi into his service to see if there were any effects from the force-induced birth. He might have a meeting with Qi-Gon, but instead of a sword duel they would hammer an agreement: they would train Anakin in the ways of both the light and dark together so as to make Anakin a balance in the living force. This would allow Plaguis to see how the force acts and reacts as Anakin grows in his training and to give him a better understanding of whether or not he caused the force to create the boy in response to his studying and pushing the limits of his own power and abilities.

      The Sith have the rule of two; we know Maul is Palpatine's apprentice in the Phantom Menace. So you could argue that Palpatine became a Sith master while Plagieus was stil alive and Plagieus got another apprentice. But Plagieus was killed by his apprentice in his sleep, this apprentice being Palpatine. So, in between the Phantom Menace and The Revenge Of The Sith, Palpatine became Plagieus his apprentice again and killed him?! And somewhere before or after that he also aquired Count Dooku as an apprentice?!

      @sykeassai 3 роки тому +26

      I may be wrong but so correct me if I am, but these are a few things I have picked up over the years. Yoda's Prophesy many hundreds of years prior said there would be one who would bring balance to the Force. Possibly one conceived by the Force itself? The Jedi took this to mean that the force would be out of balance but were too nieve to consider themselves as part of the problem. For a long time, the Jedi were unopposed because the Sith had gone into hiding. I suspect that Plagueis, while he had a plan and was a really powerful Sith master was considerate of his actions and likely a lot wiser than Sidious/Palpatine. I understood that Palpatine killed Plagueis when he thought he was now better than Plagueis. In Hindsight Plagueis was a lot wiser still. But unfortunately was killed by his impetuous student who didn't have the same foresight.
      Plagueis, as Palpatine said was able to create and sustain life due to his immense connection and control of the force. As for the Prophesy, it is my understanding that while people have but the legacy on Anakin Skywalker, I believe he is not directly the one. Arguably that he and Luke together might be the One to create Balance. Another theory is that the 2 of them together paved the way for Rey to be the One. She upholds the principle of the Jedi while coming from sith heritage. Rey, much like Asoka and the Bendu before, is likely to seek a middle ground. And as the last one left (we assume) trained in the way of the force. She has become the Balance with neither side holding any power.

    Plagueis saw Sidious as a true partner and ally while he saw Dooku as a insurance apprentice in case Sidious got either imprisoned in a place that is too well guarded and watched, got crippled badly, or if Sidious met the afterlife and saw Maul as a skilled animal but a mere attack dog and little else and he saw Anakin as a potential threat due to the force creating him yeah.

  • @Riggy2201
    @Riggy2201 4 роки тому +31

    Plagueis is an excellent book. But as far as I'm concerned it's very clear in the book that plagueis accidentally created anakin during his meditations. Something he realises when he finally sees anakin and has powerful visions. He intended to tell sidious that they will need to alter their plans, but realising that sidious was going to betray him, he duped sidious into killing him. He's a serious monastic ascetic dedicated to understanding the force, with extraordinary mental and physical force control. The idea that he can be intoxicated on wine and distracted by sidious's small talk at such an epic moment is unrealistic (his visions had shown him that this was not the final ultimate victory he was designing - something he didn't share with sidious - and sidious himself couldn't hardly believe how easy killing plagueis was either). Plagueis never actually died, but that story will probably never be correctly told now after these recent disastrous Disney movies.

    I think he would kill him right on sight after feeling the potential power of both light and dark side, that could even ruin Plagueis ultimate plan. Having Anakin on his mind, not being able to reach the boy is exactly what palatine needed. Plagueis was distracted by this disturbance in the force, allowing by then Sidious to kill him. This is exactly why he didn't meet the boy Vader, as he was meant to bring balance to the force. Plaguesis death was the first domino to fall.

    I like the fact that the Sith seem to believe that the Jedi are sort of naive/easily deceived, but as soon as Qui-Gon is sure of something, the sith go "Well shit!" It seems like they view Qui-Gon as being way smarter/more in-tune with the force than the rest of the Jedi. It's like that meme of "I fear no man.

    One possible scenario is that if Plagueis had met him, he would have not sensed the force in him, since Anakin was mentioned to be nearby and Plagueis didn’t sense it. However, upon seeing Anakin he may have had powerful visions about him after leaving Anakin which would have increased his desperation to get him in the Sith’s clutches. This would have made the storyline possibly more Sith centered and focused on the tensions between Palpatine and Plageuis and less focused on the heroes. This would have created an interesting plot point as to how Plageuis’ power compete with Sidious’ political savvy and what happens when one idea base restricts the other in the quest for greater power.

    I still say Plagueis was the one who created Anakin as the true counter to destroy Palpatine as he forseen the rise of the Empire and perhaps even his own death. Plus, Palpatine himself in ROTS says "To cheat death is a power only one has achieved, but if we work together, I know we can discover the secret." That right there pretty much seals it for me. Plagueis created Anakin and Palpatine wanted to discover that secret, hence why he wanted Anakin and why he kept him by his side for so long. And in RoS it seems as though he may have gotten his wish.
