A Emperor's Hands question

Post by Lord Revan »

Were all the Emperor's Hands female or were there any male Hands (No jokes please, I know it's also a rank in this Board)?

Yes; Sarcev Quest, Tan Mareek Steele, Jeng Droga, and others.

LMAO! :lol: sorry. Anways, what exactly is an "Emperor's Hand". I've heard Mara Jade (sp?) was one, is it just elite people that do the Emperor's bidding? and do they have to be force-sensitive?

Presumably so, given Mara's history and mission profile.

From what I know, they're agents who answer only to the Emperor. They have no place in the chain of command, no official designation and don't appear on official records.
They're all Force-sensitive, primarily because the Emperor issues them orders through the Force. If I'm not mistaken the Emperor even avoids contacting them through conventional means. Their Force sensitivity also means they're more effective, of course.
