I have a little idea, with regards to Dark Empire, take it or leave it.

Perhaps instead of the clone Emperor being the source of conflict in DE it could instead be Janus Greejatus and/or Sim Aloo, the two robed figures who appear temporarily in RotJ aboard the Death Star II. Having been trained in the ways of the Sith by the Emperor, they are attempting to reconstruct the Sith Empire just as their deceased master had instructed them to do. They do this with the assistance of a young Force-sensitive apprentice (actually one of the younger looking Emperor clones).

Or have you already decided what you're going to do with DE?

yes, i've already decided. if you watch to the cronology, just after DE, the empire it's controlled by Carnor Jax. only recently, with the release of legacy of the force, LFL has retconned that he is Lumiya's apprentice, but we have never see them together... than in DE we will see both Carnor Jax and Lumiya as villains... and some others...
