MFBKBass5 12/27/19 10:53:07 AM #4:	I always saw it as the lighting revealed his true face, since he was so old. His normal senator Palpatine face was a sith trick to hide his real age. --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA <cite>MFBKBass5 posted [p:932114434] in Was Palpat...

Blighboy 12/27/19 11:22:56 AM #7:	It was likely his true face all along. The dark side corrupting your appearance is a thing, and his appearance is consistent with that (the eyes for example). I don't know of any other example of lightning deforming a character like that. It's possible that the lightning breaking his illusion was unintentional and he just ran with it. The new canon suggests after the initial attack he concealed his appearance in propaganda during the dark times. --- I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility. <cite>Blighboy posted [p:932115489] in Was Palpat...

InfinityMonster 12/27/19 11:50:51 AM #10:	I think in the EU, it was because it got fucked, but I also read somewhere that it was a disguise. However with TRoS ~~The lightening bouncing off the saber clearly started to disfigure his face just like in RotS before it got so strong, it started ripping his face.~~ --- "It lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge" <cite>InfinityMonster posted [p:932116386] in Was Palpat...
