The Master stands in the distance
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for 'The Acolyte' finale. The Big Picture Darth Plagueis lives! The finale of The Acolyte finally brings the iconic Muun Sith Lord back to Star Wars and presents him in live-action for the first time, even if just for a few seconds and shrouded in darkness. It's a brief, but striking moment, as he watches Qimir and Osha depart for the planet Brendok.
Plagueis Wants To Achieve Immortality Through Midi-chlorian Manipulation Love them or hate them, midi-chlorians exist in Star Wars, and they work perfectly in Darth Plagueis. They are microorganisms that "quantify" someone's connection to the Force, and live inside their cells. In the novel, they are even described as "symbionts," which is also how Torbin talks about them when he is describing young Mae and Osha's m-count in The Acolyte.
Palpatine comes from an influential family on Naboo, but they have diverging views on whether the planet should become more active in the galactic system, or remain an isolationist system. Eventually, with Plagueis as his mentor, Palpatine kills all of his own family, setting in motion the events that would culminate with him becoming Naboo's representative in the Senate, and the election of young Padmé Amidala as queen.
When Tenebrous dies, Plagueis had already been experimenting with midi-chlorian manipulation, and even tries to experiment on his master before he dies for good. His own plan has always been to master the secret to immortality and conquer death, thus becoming a Sith master forever. In this sense, he believes that the Rule of Two has become obsolete, a constraint that prevents the Sith from achieving their Grand Plan of galaxy domination — another of Darth Bane's creations.
