- "The most famous of these was "Lady" (an honorific she gave herself) Ederlatth Nataasias Pallopides, who maintained a presence within the Coruscant elite for years after the war, despite the fact there was no evidence whatsoever linking her to Palpatine."
- ―Beaumont Kin, The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire
Ederlatth Nataasias Pallopides was a human female who claimed to be the daughter of Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine after his apparent death at the Battle of Endor[1] in 4 ABY.[2] Despite there being no evidence to link Pallopides to Palpatine, she gave herself the honorific "Lady" and claimed legitimacy as an heir to the throne.[1]
Following the end of the Galactic Civil War[1] in 5 ABY,[2] she maintained a presence within the social elite of the planet Coruscant for years and was notably featured in the "Profile" section of issue #4117 of the periodical Coruscanti Society.[1] In 35 ABY,[3] the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned her in[1] his[4] book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, considering Pallopides to be the most famous of the seven humans who claimed to be children of Palpatine that he found traces of in his research.[1]
Behind the scenes
In the current Star Wars canon, Ederlatth Nataasias Pallopides was mentioned in the 2024 reference book Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, which was written by Dr. Chris Kempshall.[1] The character originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity as Ederlathh Pallopides, who was mentioned in the 1993 Dark Empire Sourcebook, a supplement for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game written by Michael Allen Horne and published by West End Games.[5]

- ↑ Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire states that thirty years have passed since the end of the Galactic Civil War and months have passed since the Battle of Exegol. As Star Wars: Timelines dates the end of the war to 5 ABY and the Battle of Exegol to 35 ABY, the in-universe The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire must have been published in 35 ABY.
