Solo adopted the persona of Kylo Ren after renouncing and destroying the Jedi Order.ĭuring the last days of the Cold War, Snoke directed his apprentice to hunt and destroy Luke Skywalker, Ren's uncle and former Jedi Master, determined to complete the Great Jedi Purge with Skywalker's death as the last Jedi. With the turning of Padawan Ben Solo-grandson of the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker-to the dark side, Snoke gained the heir to the powerful Skywalker bloodline as his student.
Despite holding absolute power as Supreme Leader, Snoke allowed General Armitage Hux to lead the First Order military in his name, preferring to concentrate on spiritual matters of the Force.
With his powerful abilities and immense foresight, Snoke eventually gained control of the First Order, a hermit state in the Unknown Regions formed from a remnant of the Galactic Empire. Though Snoke possessed an independent mind, he was obliviously influenced by his creator from afar. After Sidious' resurrection, Snoke's body held no use in the Sith Lord's goal for restoration, so was instead utilized by Sidious for his natural Force-sensitivity as a proxy he could manipulate for his Contingency. Possibly unaware of his true nature, Snoke was an artificial genetic construct created on the planet Exegol by the Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious and his Sith Eternal cult during the reign of the Galactic Empire. Snoke was a Force-sensitive humanoid genetic strandcast male who ruled the First Order as Supreme Leader during the New Republic Era. And now, foolish child, he ignites it, and kills his true enemy!" ―Snoke's final words, to Rey and Kylo Ren I see his every intent! Yes, I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true. The implication is that Snoke was a clone created by Palpatine to do Palpatine’s bidding." You think you can turn him? Pathetic child, I cannot be betrayed. In the background, we can see a bunch of Snoke bodies floating around in a chamber of liquid. As Kylo moves towards Palpatine, he’s told that Palpatine was always the voice guiding him whether it was through Palpatine’s voice, the voice of Darth Vader, or through Supreme Leader Snoke. Then Rian Johnson proceeded to chop him in half with a lightsaber and move on because Snoke’s not a particularly interesting character.īut apparently every question needs an answer (ambiguity is the enemy in the age where everything has a Wikipedia entry), so Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker opens with Kylo Ren coming to Exegol, the Sith Planet that’s home to Zombie Palpatine. Perhaps he was one of the famous Darths from the EU that had been integrated into the movies. Introduced in Star Wars: The Force Awakens as the new version of the Emperor complete with threatening hologram, fans began to wonder if Snoke was somehow tied to the legacy of the Sith. Star Wars: The Last Jedi was not interested in the origins of Supreme Leader Snoke. Spoilers ahead for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
