Star Wars where every background characters has backstories that somehow connected to the main story no matter how small their roles were in the movies.
Like Darth Plagues... he literally isn't mentioned until ROTS, and he's not even seen onscreen... and yet, he's responsible for everything that transpired in the prequel and original trilogies, all because he simply took on Palpatine as his apprentice.
@@roger632To be fair a character who was central to the main antagonist mysterious backstory being revealed isn't really Star Wars pulling random characters out of thin air as much as it was that the ultra secretive character gets his equally unknown origin story finally explained.
@@nameynamename3758 sadly that's exactly what happened. Clone wars started leaving the Clone Wars and start focusing in setting and characters lore world building wise.. I mean like Dooku and Grievous literally disappear and take backseats. I remember the "i sense Savage is growing stronger" line with Grievous before Maul showed up, and it never amounted to anything in the show. It focused too much on filler when it should've continued to develop Maul story WHILE still showing the war. It's like, how is Anakin able to just keep going resturants and meet padme "privately" on his downtime. He shouldn't be having downtime. None of the jedi should be. I mean Windu literally brought most of (if not all) the Jedi High Council members to save JEDI KNIGHT Obi-wan and Capture Dooku in AotC. Along with a 2 hundred Jedi. All we followed is Anakin and Obi-wan, and they apparently always kept fighting Dooku and Grievous respectively. And now most people believe all other Jedi were not really much to gloat about. Did Mace windu even get a fight? Nope. The best fight Dave Filoni could've set up for him, was mainly focused on Jar Jar.
'Many of the members also had aides that sat in on council meetings. They were a part of the council, but had no say in proceedings' "We permit you on the council, but we do not grant you the rank of separatist leader."
Rune Haako was almost killed by Darth Sidious in hologram form in The Phantom Menace, in an alternate scene that got scrapped. It got replaced with the scene where Haako says ‘we dare not go against the Jedi’ and Sidious ignores him and says to Gunray ‘Viceroy, I don’t want this stunted slime in my sight again!’ In the alternate scene Sidious would have strangled Rune Haako and picked him up with the force through the hologram from across the galaxy. I think this clearly inspired that epic scene in the Clone Wars Lost Missions ep10, where Dooku gets strangled on Serenno through the hologram by his master on Coruscant. It would have obviously rhymed with Admiral Ozzel’s death, choked by Vader through the screen from his meditation chamber.
To be fair, the villains of the prequels being shallow was basically the entire point. They were all just distractions for our heroes to not focus on the real main antagonist. Knowing that this is the point I now can forgive them being shallow in the movies.
Fun Fact: In the novel “Darth Plagueis” by James Luceno, it’s revealed that Darth Plagueis (known to the public as Magister Hego Damask) was San Hill’s personal teacher and had a direct role in putting him on the IBC’s head counsel.
No, Larsh Hill (San Hill's father) was the essential right-hand man of Hego Damask, Plagueis's alter ego. Plagueis was behind San Hill's placement. He was not San Hill's teacher.
Fun fact: Senator Rogwa Wodratra was never at Mustafar! That means she survived Vader's brutal murder! As for what happened to her after this, nobody knows.
@@jonathansmithCrabAuthor probably died in the war (it is kind of unlikely that they'd all live with how much they are in the front lines) i don't think sidious would allow such a loose end, and the rebels wouldn't fair well with such a villainous character
you forgot sun fac poggle the lesser's lieutenant, and even though her brief role Sev'rance Tann, who did have general grievous position when the war started
Una de las razones por las que apoyaron a la CEI en primer lugar, es que estaban cansados del racismo contra las especies no humanoides. La forma alienígena del consejo no es casual, sino una consecuencia directa de sus intereses: tener control y poderes a pesar de no ser como humanos.
something I've always loved about Star Wars and this channel is the attention to detail, the "minor" stories or dossier's about the characters brings this galaxy to life. love it 👍
When the first line of someone's manifesto is "Peace is a lie" you probably shouldn't trust them when they say "And then we shall have peace"... You really have to wonder why these guys thought trusting the Sith was a good idea.
For anyone that's wondering, the full thing goes like: Peace is a lie. There is only Passion. Through Passion, I gain Strength. Through Strength, I gain Power. Through Power, I gain Victory. Through Victory my chains are Broken. The Force shall free me.
To be fair the sith really had nothing to do with it. Count Dooku and most of Dooku's sith apprentices had been reliable for them. The problem was just Palpatine is a slime.
Well, I said back in the video detailing the war crimes committed by the Separatist Council that I wanted to know more about the Council, and after a little over a year and a half(yes I went back and saw the date of when the video was first published because I'm that big of a nerd, lol) I finally got that video and it was great. And I would love one for all the Nemodians in the Phantom Menace. Although, you didn't mention anything on the Geonosian with Poggle in Revenge of the Sith the one seen at the Separatist leadership meeting Grevious was holding to tell them he was moving them to Mustafar. Then he was on Mustafar when Vader sliced him, the Separatists, and the other aids up. Also, did the other Nemodians on Mustafar have names? Because besides Gunray, Hakko, and Gunay, I counted like five to six other Nemodians on Mustafar when Vader was slaughtering the Separatist Council.
Were they rebels fighting to free themselves from a corrupt system? Or coldhearted businessmen wanting to increase profits by removing Republic interference?
In my opinion, I would say the idealists who were fed up with the corruption in the Republic were a minority. In the parliament they had to govern along with worlds who wanted to expand their power like the Zygerrian Empire while also dealing with the corporations of the Separatist Council who had members in the parliament. I would guess a lot of people in the parliament thought that Dooku was keeping the Separatist Council on a tight leash, hence why they were so sure they were free form corporate rule when ironically they dove in deeper into it than the Republic. Technically you could say the Separatists had a better propaganda campaign than the Republic in terms of false lies. Sure there are few if no Republic posters of the Jedi during the Clone Wars, but that was because the Jedi didn’t want to look to militaristic. Now I wonder what it was like for Separatists after the Clone Wars when they went to Republic worlds. We’ve seen how Imperials have reacted in the aftermath of their atrocities against the galaxy. Some try to defend what happened at Alderaan while others think the Empire went too far, and there are separate opinions about Operation Cinder. Even in the case of Order 66, plenty of clones get trauma while the few who stick with the Empire long after the majority are retired defend their position and see the Jedi as traitors. However we never see how Separatists react when they come to an Imperial world that suffered under Separatist rule. Technically unlike the Imperials, the Separatists never felt Justice. Anakin executed Dooku who was unarmed. Obi-Wan had to kill Grievous. And the Separatist Council was wiped out while Separatist Holdouts were crushed one by one. Senators had to be kept in power to convince Separatist citizens to go along with the Empire. Meanwhile with the Imperials, the New Republic basically tried all high-ranking officers as war criminals. The victims of the Droid Army never got their justice because soon they had to deal with life under Imperial rule. To be fair, the Separatist Alliance had a far more brutal end than the Galactic Empire. If I had to rank organizations in Star Wars by the amount of war crimes they committed, the New Republic would take first place followed by the Galactic Republic. The NR beats out the GR which had its army led by actual Jedi just because of the whole Order 66 issue that was ordered right before the birth of the Empire. Still, the New Republic’s imperfect predecessor has nothing on the CIS, Galactic Empire, and First Order on atrocities. And that is still from best to worst. Shouldn’t be much of a surprise that the more diverse governments that gave at least some power to good people have cleaner hands than those in the Empire and the First Order. Even I have to admit that not every military officer of the CIS was somebody from the corporate sector or some warlord trying to regain power lost to the Republic.

I'm currently reading the complete legends timeline in chronological order currently on: tales from jabbas palace. It would be cool if you did one on the background characters and mos Eisley cantina. Great content bud keep going and growing. 😊
As Italian I am very surprise that for a alien leader they choose the word "Presidente" (literally President but also chairman/woman) and not the English word
I'd imagine it could be they just made up a random title that sounded nice cuz they wanted to be viewed as royalty not just a random business executive.
@@geth7112 It must be written somewhere haha, I just know that Viceroy is the title given to like an interim king, so say if the Old king died and his son wasn’t old enough to rule then a Viceroy would be appointed to conduct the kings business until the son is old enough
With all those alien species I have always found it a lazy cop-out that they were just about all bi-pedal even the glaringly obvious non-humanoids. Then, I had a check moment when I had to think about the Lucas film costume department.

El neimoidiano que aparece junto a Gunray en el episodio 2 es Gilramos Libkath, otro asesor, rute gunnay es más importante que rune hako. Aunque sólo estuvo presente en la reunión en mustafar.
There’s another Separatist Council member who’s currently unidentified. It’s a short creature who sat next to Tikkes on Utapau. This character was never seen after that. It isn’t known what happened to that council member.
Well that's imagery. The good aliens like Chewie, the Ewoks, Jar Jar, Ahsoka, Yoda etc are meant to look cute and friendly, while the evil ones like the Tuskens, the Wampas, Nute Gunray, the Geonosians, Wat Tambor, Shu Mai, Bosssk, Snoke, etc are meant to look scary.
