The time period of when Plagueis came to possess his Sith apprentice was unknown, but the Dark Lord chose Sheev Palpatine, a human from Naboo, as his apprentice.
Lucas fleshed out the Emperor in the prequel films. According to Lucas, Palpatine's role in The Phantom Menace is to explain "how Anakin Skywalker [later Vader] came to be Palpatine's apprentice" and the events that led to his rise to power. The film's novelization is the first time he is called Darth Sidious.
Jedi Masters Mace Windu, Kit Fisto, Saesee Tiin, and Agen Kolar confronted Chancellor Palpatine upon learning of his secret identity as a Sith Lord.
That person was Darth Traya, or as she was once known, Kreia. Kreia's story begins with Revan's, teaching him in the ways of the Jedi. Long had she forsaken her eyesight and taught her students more in mental skills. She used her spare time to learn more about the deeper mysteries of the Force.
In Legends, Revan was a Jedi Knight who broke away from the Jedi Order, became a Dark Lord of the Sith, and formed a Sith Empire that waged war against the Order and the Galactic Republic.
As impressive as Vader's battle tactics might be, if he and Revan make a stand with comparable armies, Revan is likely to be victorious. So, this point goes to Revan as well.
DARK SIDE FRIDAY - Did you know Palpatine feared Qui-Gon Jinn? Palpatine was immensely powerful and he could see the future which made him very confident about pretty much anyone who stood against him. So why Qui-Gon Jinn?
For thousands of years, the Sith laid waste across the Star Wars galaxy while facing off against the Jedi Order. By the end of The Rise of Skywalker, Emperor Palpatine (aka Darth Sidious) is believed to be the last of the Sith Lords.
In the final days of the Clone Wars, Windu turned to Kolar again, calling on him, Saesee Tiin and Kit Fisto to arrest Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Confronted by the Jedi, Palpatine threw off his guise and revealed himself as Darth Sidious. He ignited his crimson-bladed lightsaber and struck down Kolar.
Count Dooku of Serenno, also known by his Sith name Darth Tyranus, or simply as Dooku, is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise, created by George Lucas.
Palpatine is Star Wars' ultimate threat, only ultimately stopped by Luke Skywalker's redemption of his apprentice Darth Vader, but it turns out the galaxy didn't actually need a Jedi to defeat the Sith. The history of Star Wars is one of an almost-unending war between the light and dark sides of the Force.
Because as soon as Kylo defeated Snoke, Darth Plagueis infected him. He is no longer Kylo Ren, he is now assumed by Darth Plagueis, and it is Darth Plague's desire to rule.
Mission to Mathas. Padawan Windu was trained in the ways of the Force by Jedi Master Cyslin Myr. Following his early trials as a youngling, Windu attained the status of Padawan by becoming Jedi Master Cyslin Myr's apprentice.
1 Darth Sidious
There has been no Sith, as powerful, meticulous, nor as evil as the Emperor himself, Darth Sidious. As previously mentioned, Sidious trained in the Dark Side by Darth Plagueis before Sidious killed Plagueis in his sleep, making Sidious a Sith Master.
As the first Dark Lord of the Sith, Ajunta Pall founded the first Sith Empire and expanded it onto other worlds. The Sith took over the planet Ziost and created it as their capital and as Pall's new home. Pall eventually died after serving the Empire for many decades, but his Empire lived on.
History. A dark side warrior with a mysterious past, Kylo Ren was neither Jedi nor Sith, but a product of both sides' teachings. Once an apprentice of Luke Skywalker's, he killed his fellow students and drove Skywalker into exile, becoming a First Order warlord and servant of Supreme Leader Snoke.
If Qui-Gon had survived his fight against Darth Maul, he would have sensed Palpatine's evil, and Anakin wouldn't have become Darth Vader. Thus, while Qui-Gon was less powerful than Yoda, Palpatine feared him more.
After Mustafar had crippled Vader, Sidious assumed that Vader would never wield the level of power he once had. He thought Vader was a broken husk of a man with little to no use left. He wanted stronger candidates to enforce his rule throughout the Empire.
Arguably, Qui-Gon is wiser in some ways, given that he knows how to preserve his consciousness in death. Yoda is wise, but sometimes flawed, given that some of his views align with the problematic thinking of the Jedi of this era.
Galen Marek is the only one who came close to destroying the Sith Lord, thanks to his vast knowledge of Vader's fighting tactics through the many hours they trained together.
Darth Vader defeats Darth Maul. The two Sith Lords engaged in a lightsaber duel, going through the volcano and onto a bridge situated over a river of lava, which collapsed, though they both survived and continued their battle.
