Emperor
Palpatine
The
most powerful man in the galaxy before his presumed death at the
hands of Luke Skywalker,
Emperor Palpatine's true power was never known to the galaxy.
Although still partly conjecture, Syndicate agents have believed
to have seen him recently on Nar Shadda.
When
the Hapan, Jens,
recognized that one of her foes looked like a younger version
of the former Emperor, Fabius
Kane deduced that this may have been a clone of Palpatine.
Neither one knew Palpatine was a Force-user, but considering the
powers of the new Emperor, neither was too surprised.
What
Palpatine was doing at Raka'an
the Hutt's casino, following the call of other Force users,
his relation to the Hutt, or why his entourage was attacking many
of the other Force-users attracted to that casino, are unknown.
Regardless,
largely through the efforts of Jens and Kane, the clone was killed,
but whether Palpatine may appear again, in another clone, is unknown.
However, if he does return, Palpatine is likely to hone in on
these heroes and their friends, after they laid waste to Palpatine's
entire entourage.
