The Dark Jedi who cheated death before Palpatine.
Thanks to Imperial Project Necromancer, Emperor Palpatine cheated death and returned to plague the galaxy, but another Star Wars character achieved this 1,000 years earlier. Both in the official canon and the original Star Wars Expanded Universe, now known as"Legends," Palpatine survived his apparent death and waged war against the New Republic.
Set Harth Used The Same Technique As Palpatine To Survive For 1,000 Years A secret passed on to worthy Sith pupils Close ✕ Remove Ads Set Harth was a Jedi Padawan who fell to the dark side following the New With Wars and became obsessed with Sith artifacts. His search led him to the Sith Lord Darth Zannah, who had recently fallen out with her master, Darth Bane. Zannah planned to kill Bane and claim the title of Dark Lord of the SIth, so she spared Set and took him as her apprentice.
Posts ✕ Remove Ads Set may not have become a true Sith Lord, but consulting with the Sith holocron allowed him to learn a technique called essence transfer. This meant Set could transfer his spirit into another body, so he created clones of himself to stay alive, just as Palpatine did in canon and Legends. Unlike Palpatine, Set used this technique to live for at least 1,000 years, as he was still alive approximately 20 years after Return of the Jedi.
