Yeah but c'mon, what do they actually do? I'm sure the Emperor doesn't need 'advisors', if anything they're yes men! I can't see our Palps sitting there going

'Soooo, what shall we have on this Death Star of ours?'
'I'd say it could do with a small thermal exhaust port thats only two metres wide'
'Sounds good, build it!'

Even dictators have advisors; they just don't necessarily listen to any contradicting opinions from them.

I've been wondering who the robed figures are that's talking with the emperor in episode 6 on the death star.

They have sort of purplish robes on and it takes place after Han, Leia, Luke and Chewie leave the fleet i n the shuttle.

Is it possibly some inquisitors or what?




Contrary to popular belief, the robed figures are surely NOT the Emperors advisors. It doesn't make any sense, he doesn't need them, or if he did, they'd be brain washed. Might as well say they are Count Dooku, Darth Maul, and General Grevious, respectively. Not sure which is which though.

I thought they may have been really important people that the Emperor was giving orders to.
((I believe one of them was from Coruscant. I heard it from my brother, but I don't know where he got it from.))

And hello, tomp115 happy

Well, canon states that they are advisers. You can choose to believe otherwise if you want, but that's what they are. happy

Congratulations! This is the millionth time a thread asking this question has been posted. PM a mod for your prize wink mischief



Funny...I don't recall seeing a thread about this anytime in quite some long time...hmmm...maybe if we search back to page...22, or ... something! tongue


Anyways, I always thought seeing those advisors in there was nice. It added a flavor of how things were on Coruscant, and it's some of the only people we see throughout IV-VI are dressed that way-just like how we see so many senators and people in political office in I-III...nice bit of continuity there.

What were they advising him on?

"Use Lightning and then cackle maniacally my liege."

"No, first the cackle and then the lightning!"
