Card Text

Never deploys or moves (even if carried) except to an [Episode VII] location without a [Light Side] icon. Once per turn, may draw bottom card of your Force Pile. Once per game, if about to be lost, may take him into hand. Immune to attrition.

Lore

Leader.

Rulings

• This card qualifies as Emperor, as Palpatine, and as Sidious.
• If his game text is canceled, the text cannot be used to take him into hand when about to be lost.
• If he is hit during battle and then excluded from the battle (e.g. by Clash Of Sabers) he is inactive and so cannot use his text to be taken into hand. He is immediately lost due to being hit while outside of a battle.
• A Light Side Force icon could be added to the same location as Palpatine, Emperor Returned (e.g. due to Presence Of The Force). This does not violate Palpatine's text or cause him to be removed from table.
