A new theory explores the possibility that Padmé Amidala and Palpatine share a distant blood connection, potentially explaining Luke Skywalker's Force abilities.
This fascinating Star Wars theory proposes a shocking blood relation for Padmé Amidala , potentially outside the Skywalker family tree. This connection, if true, could illuminate the source of Luke Skywalker 's extraordinary Force abilities. Padmé stands as one of Star Wars ' most compelling characters, her influence extending beyond her pivotal roles in Anakin, Luke, and Leia's lives.
She actively shaped the galaxy, as evidenced by deleted scenes from Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith revealing her instrumental role in establishing the Rebel Alliance. Even before that, her courageous spirit shone through in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, where she fearlessly defended her people as a young queen, risking her own life for their safety. Star Wars novels have delved deeper into her reign, painting a vivid picture of her days leading up to and following her election as queen. This theory suggests an even greater significance to Padmé's time as Naboo's monarch, linking her to a surprising figure. According to Star Wars Legends, Padmé belonged to the Royal Houses of Naboo, the noble families that formed the planet's aristocracy and government. These families selected the monarch, explaining Padmé's position as queen. This tradition also sheds light on her young age as queen and the prevalence of teenage queens on Naboo. While the Legends details haven't been fully mirrored in canon, the Royal House of Naboo has been referenced in various canon sources. Notably, E.K. Johnston's canon Padmé trilogy (Queen's Shadow, Queen's Peril, and Queen's Hope) provides the most comprehensive insight into Padmé's character.Given this, it's reasonable to assume, as in Legends, that Padmé originated from the Royal Houses of Naboo. But could Padmé be connected to another prominent figure? Given Palpatine's history and influence on Naboo, he might also hail from these aristocratic families. Despite his eventual descent into darkness as one of Star Wars' most powerful Sith, Palpatine originated from Naboo, a planet known for its beauty and artistic emphasis. He rose through the ranks of the Republic Senate, initially serving as Naboo's Senator in The Phantom Menace, a position Padmé later held after Palpatine became Supreme Chancellor. Assuming the Naboo aristocracy functions similarly in both canon and Legends, this suggests Palpatine came from these noble families, allowing him to attain political power. This theory is further supported by the fact that, in both canon and Legends, Palpatine's family is known for its considerable influence and ties to Naboo's history. This raises a profound question: could Palpatine and Padmé be distantly related? While seemingly outlandish, aristocratic families frequently intermarried, a practice likely prevalent on Naboo, especially given its monarchy. Such a connection between Palpatine and Padmé, however distant, could significantly impact our understanding of her character and its implications for Luke and Leia.
