Character idea-Chancellor Palpatine

Human, Sith, Dark Side, Separatist

Basic: Juyo
Deal physical damage to target enemy with a 10% chance to deal massive damage on a critical hit.

Special 1: Furious Assault (2 turns)
Deal Special damage to all enemies and inflict two DoT effects on all enemies. If target enemy is a Jedi, also Stun and Daze that enemy for 3 turns.

Special 2: Lightning Strike (4 turns)
Deal Physical damage to target enemy and 65% less damage to all other enemies. If target enemy is a Jedi, also Shock all enemies for 2 turns.

Special 3: Order 66 (6 turns)
Command all Clone allies to deal damage to target enemy, dealing 30% less damage, and inflict Healing Immunity and buff Immunity on that enemy if it is a Jedi. If the enemy is defeated, reduce the cooldown of this ability by 2.

Unique: Force Stealth
If any Jedi or Republic character attacks Chancellor Palpatine, he immediately gains stealth and Health Up (30%) for 2 turns.
  • Calling all clone allies would be useless in Dark side battles lol. Order 66 would be a waste of a turn there. Plus the clones we have are Clone Wars Cartoon era clones, not the end of the war era clones.
  • In the omega battle that uses Sith, since you only get three toons, you could form a Palpateam.
  • Honestly, Chancellor Palpatine should be Republic not Separatist, and he should probably not be able to use dark side/ Sith synergies if Jedi are alive on the ally team (notice I said alive, not present, so there could be a strategy of putting an important Jedi in the team but the enemy wouldn't want to kill them off as it would buff Palpatine). Palpatine wasn't really actually a separatist, sure he was Dookus master and Dooku was the leader of the separatists, but he never actually did anything with the separatists as Chancellor Palpatine, only Darth Sidious. The version of Palpatine you are proposing here was a part of the republic, while secretly manipulating events to lead to the empire. As far as 99.99 percent of the galaxy was aware, Palpatine and Darth Sidious were two different people. Even General Greivous had no idea that Palpatine and Darth Sidious were the same person, so it makes no sense for Palpatine to synergize with a faction, when even that factions best Millitary general isn't aware that Palpatine is Darth Sidious.

    However what I would like to see, is the Darth Sidious we already have to be reworked to have some sort of Seperatist synergy. This would fall in line with the lore more, because Sidious is more widely known to be an ally by Separatists (although somehow the republic never seemed to learn of his existence through them, and and the Jedi only really became aware of his existence in later seasons of the clone wars), at least by the seperatist higher ups, as I bet a random battle droid wouldn't know who Darth Sidious is. Chancellor Palpatine for republic, Darth Sidious for CIS, Emperor Palpatine for Empire, so this way he can synergize the with each of the factions that he was affiliated withthorough the use of different identites. Either way, anything that isn't a rebel is a great addition in my book.

    Yeah he was not a Seperatist at all
