Strand-Cast

Canon Linked from 49 articles

A Strand-Cast, alternatively spelled strandcast, was an artificial life form genetically engineered through the process known as Strand-Casting. After the death of Darth Sidious at the Battle of Endor, the Sith Lord was reborn, and his Sith Eternal cult engineered various strandcasts on the distant world of Exegol, including Supreme Leader Snoke and Dathan. Whereas Snoke was a genetic strandcast who possessed a powerful connection to the Force, the father of Rey was an ordinary human despite being cloned from Sidious' template. His daughter was nonetheless Force-sensitive through her birth as an offspring of the Palpatine bloodline.
