How was Palpatine able to hide his yellow eyes?

How did Palpatine hide his appearance?

Palpatine is certainly no stranger to hiding his appearance, as we’ve seen him do so in Star Wars Rebels. There’s a popular theory, especially in the Legends continuity, that Palpatine used Sith alchemy to conceal his true identity behind a sort of mask, only for this mask to be torn away in Episode III.

Why was Palpatine’s eyes not yellow?

Once he made his “Change” into his true form, his eyes remain Yellow all the time, but when he was Senator Palpatine, he avoided using the Dark Side any more than he had so that he could remain in hiding. Dooku, for example, didn’t hide from Jedi that he was a Sith, and still did not have yellow eyes.

How come Dooku didn’t have Sith eyes?

Is Obi Wan a Sith?

Obi-Wan even admits his Sith nature during his final fight with Anakin. He tells Anakin that “Only the Sith deal in absolutes”, a statement that itself is an absolute. This is very similar to the way in which Palpatine reveals himself to Anakin, a clear Sith trait. Obi-Wan’s murder of Anakin is cruel, as befits a Sith.
