While much of his life remains shrouded in mystery, it was eventually revealed that Snoke was actually an artificial creation of Darth Sidious, who he used for two purposes: to consolidate control over various fractured Imperial forces to form the First Order after the Galactic Civil War, and to corrupt the son of Han Solo and Leia Organa. Snoke was betrayed after he humiliated his student and threatened Rey, who Kylo formed an unlikely bond with - Kylo killed his master and assumed the title of Supreme Leader for himself.


Initially presenting himself as an ally to Ben Solo, he helped turn him against his family and embrace the Dark Side of the Force as Kylo Ren. He has no permanent base of operations, preferring to contact his underlings via hologram from his gigantic ship, the Supremacy. Snoke is also a powerful wielder of the Dark Side and the teacher of Kylo Ren. The Supreme Leader of the First Order military junta, Snoke commands General Hux and the rest of the resurgent Imperial Military in their goal of building a New Galactic Empire.
