If they are attacked with non-lethal weapons or hand-to-hand: they are merely unconscious unless tossed off a fall or into a fire/pit/acid/lava/etc.

If they are shot, stabbed, exploded, etc: they are dead.

In start wars you have to see their physical moment of life leaving them or their ghost to confirm their death. Anything else and they’re able to come back.

  If Palpatine had come back as a ghost would that have been better or worse? 🤔

What about getting zapped by electricity?

Is that a death by eletrocution? Or is that just like getting tazed?

  If they smoke afterward, they’re dead. If not, they’re fine.
