How old is Palpatine?
How old is Palpatine?
I'm looking at The SITH OverLORD's signature, and wondering ... How old is Chancellor/Emperor Palpatine / Darth Sidious?
He is the only adult character who appear from SW1 - SW6 episodes.
(except for Anakin/Vader, but he's a kid in SW1)

May the Force Live Long & Prosper ...
I assume he is 40 at TPM by the looks.
+ 10yrs (AOTC)
+another few yrs(guess 5 yrs?) (Clone Wars + ROTS)
Luke is born at ROTS timeline, he is a fine adult at ROTJ, so i assume luke is 24+ yrs old.
So Palpy is 40 +10 +5 +20 +24
=99 yrs old?
This is MY guess hor. Not sure. But i know he is VERY OLD at ROTJ.

I guess he should be close to a century by the time of his demise in the Death Star in ROTJ.
by the way, just realised something interesting... Palpatine was not played by actor Ian McDiarmid in ESB

by the way, this is how the official site described the final moments of Mace Windu's battle with Palpatine:
I guess that really exemplifies beauty in the eye of its beholder.The evil energies twisted Palpatine's face as they flowed through him, scarring and disfiguring his once handsome features.
