As Palpatine's puppet ruler, Snoke manipulates Luke Skywalker's nephew, Ben Solo, into becoming Kylo Ren. The character appears as a major antagonist in The Force Awakens (2015) and the secondary antagonist in The Last Jedi (2017), and is referenced in The Rise of Skywalker (2019).
Originally Answered: Why did Kylo Ren kill Snoke? Kylo Ren follows the path of the Dark Side of the Force, and therefore seeks more power. While he is not a Sith, the same logic applies that you outgrow your master, and for someone who follows the dark path, the next step is to eliminate any glass ceiling.
Snoke and his many copies were not a clone of any known individual the way the Clone Army soldiers were modified copies of Jango Fett. Nor was he a one-for-one recreation of a previous body like Palpatine's clone body. Snoke was an entirely new being made from scratch, and Dr.
It's possible Snoke may have been intended to be a Grysk, an alien race from the Unknown regions describes as having deep-set eyes and having ships so large they blot out the star.
It's implied in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi that Snoke manipulated Ben Solo as a child. One can only imagine the horrific evolution of that manipulation into physical and psychological abuse once Ben Solo was fully in his grasp and determined to become Kylo Ren.
Summary. Jar Jar Binks's clumsiness may not be genuine, but rather an act to disguise his true nature as a Sith Lord infiltrating the Republic. Palpatine carefully orchestrated events to manipulate the galaxy, and Jar Jar's involvement suggests he may have been the eyes and ears on Naboo.
It seems improbable that Snoke did not know that Palpatine created him, but despite being steeped in knowledge surrounding the Dark Side, there is no evidence in any of the canon content that Snoke knew Palpatine was alive, let alone that he created him.
Thus, while Qui-Gon was less powerful than the likes of Yoda and Mace Windu, Palpatine feared him more. In the simplest terms, he was a wild card, and with the Sidious executing an intricate decades-long plan to seize power and destroy the Jedi, a wild card was something he just couldn't afford.
The most agreed upon theory, started by Reddit user Lumparoo in 2016, is that Jar-Jar is a powerful Force-user conspiring with Darth Sidious. In addition to this, some believe he either trained, or was supposed to become Supreme Leader Snoke, or that he is a reincarnation of Darth Plagueis.
That didn't stop fans speculating on whether Snoke was really Darth Plagueis or Anakin Skywalker's evil twin or something else entirely. It didn't turn out to be anything as grand when The Rise of Skywalker revealed that, actually, Emperor Palpatine was in charge all along.
Presumably Palpatine (or his agents) gave Snoke the ring early in the clone's life, allowing Palpatine to control the First Order's actions from behind the scenes due to the inherent dark side nature of obsidian.
Why Do You Think Kylo Ren Was So Obsessed With Rey? He saw her as a useful tool for his rise to power. He was intrigued by the mystery surrounding her. He wanted closure for his defeat at her hands.
Kylo Ren wanted to be the next Darth Vader, fundamentally misunderstanding his grandfather. Another key reason why Kylo would never be the next Vader was that Kylo was a Knight of Ren, not a Sith. While both religions used the dark side, and red-bladed lightsabers, the two had different philosophies.
He simply takes credit for a connection they had naturally through the Force (later identified to be a prophesized dyad by Palpatine), and uses it for his (engineered) purpose, to test Kylo Ren. That is why Snoke tells Kylo to kill Rey.
The helmet was designed to look sinister; as a Knight of Ren, Ren was part of an enclave of dark side warriors who wore masks to induce fear in their prey. Ren's helmet was a symbolic reminder of his lineage as Darth Vader's grandson, serving no practical use in his life.
The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, Ben Solo was seduced by the dark side of the Force and renamed himself Kylo Ren: leader of the Knights of Ren, champion of the First Order, and apprentice to Supreme Leader Snoke. Driven to destroy the past, Kylo killed his father and his master, supplanting Snoke as Supreme Leader.
Created on Exegol, Droid Snoke was a failed clone of Snoke. The cloning process caused him to think he was a droid, a defect labeling him a reject in the eyes of a Sith scientist. The scientist later spoke with an individual who sought out and defeated Droid Snoke at the scientist's request.
Although it's not fully clear where the Darth moniker originated, Darth Andeddu is thought to be the first character to use the title in-universe. Having originated in Legends, Andeddu was mentioned in the new canon in the comic Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 2, which referenced "Andeddu's flames".
Anakin Skywalker's birth mystery is solved - his mother, Shmi Skywalker, reveals that there was no father and she can't explain what happened. Qui-Gon Jinn believed that the Force itself created Anakin in Shmi's womb, making him the Chosen One who would bring balance to the Force.
Emperor Palpatine, also known as Darth Sidious, is often regarded as the embodiment of evil in the Star Wars universe. His cunning manipulation and orchestration of galactic events, including the rise of the Galactic Empire, showcase his mastery of the dark side of the Force.
The Rise of Skywalker novelization insisted the kiss was not romantic, explaining that it was “a kiss of gratitude, acknowledgment of their connection, celebration that they'd found each other at last”, but when looking at the context and what their connection was like since The Last Jedi, the kiss between Rey and Ben ...
Kylo Ren dies on Kef Bir (the ocean moon of Endor) shortly after Rey deals a mortal wound during a lightsaber duel on the wreckage of the second Death Star. Though Rey Force-heals him, saving his life physically, this blow, coupled with the memory of his mother and father, destroys the man known as “Kylo Ren” forever.
Though initially trained as a Jedi by his uncle Luke Skywalker, Ben was seduced to the dark side of the Force by Supreme Leader Snoke, and aspires to be as powerful as his grandfather, the Sith Lord Darth Vader / Anakin Skywalker.
