I am The Dark Lord of the Sith, AMA

[Darth Decepis]

I have forseen that you have questions, about a great many things...

[Kale]

What did you have for breakfast today?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

What is a good Valentines Day present for someone you like but they might not know you exist?

[Droo]

Describe your perfect Sunday.

[John Glayde]

What health and beauty products, face creams, etc do you regularly use?

[Darth Decepis]

What did you have for breakfast today?

"Dark toast, and a poached egg. The first order was sent back. The short order cook paid the price for his overcooking."

[Darth Decepis]

What is a good Valentines Day present for someone you like but they might not know you exist?

"The Dark Side of the Force offers many unnatural gifts. Does the object of your desire wish for wealth, power, or revenge?

Barring that, dark chocolate is always appreciated."

[Leliel]

Darkened tidings bring whispers of worlds and those yet uncovered...

Always pondering a replacement for the current pupil. What length of failure would cause one to seek out more promising protégé? Where would the search begin? Onderon with the apostates? Or does the darkness call to other places? >D

[Darth Decepis]

Describe your perfect Sunday.

"Watching the New England Patriots play football. Though their uniforms aren't quite dark enough, I sense great power in Bill Belichick."

[Darth Decepis]

What health and beauty products, face creams, etc do you regularly use?

"The tears of an orphaned child contain many rejuvenating qualities. They have been known to do wonders for dark circles under the eyes."

(finally a serious question!)

"If you refer to Acera, I have considered alternatives. She is only at my side so long as she remains useful. If she falters, arrangements have already been made. Indeed I have found a potential apprentice to usurp her. One far younger and more powerful."

[Salem Ave]

What would you say is your greatest weakness?

:)

[Anne Phoenix]

Briefs or Boxers?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

What did you think about De'Ville, in your brief exposure to her?

[Darth Decepis]

What would you say is your greatest weakness?

:)

I'll answer this OOC because there's no constructive IC response. Decepis's greatest weakness is his underestimation of driving factors that influence people beyond basic power. He finds a pressure point in someone that allows them to do all manner of things to pursue power, and he takes advantage of that avarice until that person is no longer useful to him and he discards them. He's in the process of doing that with s'Ilancy, but he fails to understand how much more durable love is than base pursuits of power.

[Darth Decepis]

Briefs or Boxers?

"Long johns"

[Darth Decepis]

What did you think about De'Ville, in your brief exposure to her?

I'll also answer this one OOC. Decepis takes an incredibly dim view of other "Sith" since he considers them heretical and weak in doctrine. He found her skills strong enough, but he'd consider her too undisciplined and not capable of being used to mold to his will, so he'd prefer for her to be killed immediately.

[Kale]

In your estimation, what was Palpatine's biggest mistake?

[Darth Decepis]

In your estimation, what was Palpatine's biggest mistake?

Aside from having a throne room that violates OSHA compliance and not installing a big-assed grate on the giant reactor chasm in death star 2?

That's a difficult question. His tactics were sound enough for Decepis to understand. Leveraging father against son to keep control over the victor. This isn't some hair-brained idea, it's the very nature of how the Sith endure. Removing the risk to himself removes some of the passion that Luke would have been subjected to. The danger has to appear quite real. I think considering all this, he'd figure Palpatine met his end due to an aberration.
