* Chancellor Palpatine was able to maintain his bogus persona as a gentle and peace-loving politician long enough to set his monstrous, galaxy-changing plans into motion. But when a trio of justice-seeking Jedi showed up at his office for a historic confrontation, Palpatine was ready for them. With unexpected strength, skill and agility, he launched himself at his foes and swiftly took out three of the four Jedi Masters. Only Mace Windu managed to get he better of this hate-maddened Sith, a triumph that quickly turned to tragedy when Anakin Skywalker arrived on the scene. With Windu betrayed, Palpatine emerged scarred but victorious...and Darth Vader was born. *Source: Back of Card.
