So the Emperor is clearly the rotten sneak who tadpoled us. He's got that unique mind flayer head, you know. (Not to mention the giveaway outfit.) They changed all the other mind flayer heads to be more rounded while the Emperor's remained a bit more pointed.
This fella tadpoled us at the start of the game. It's probably on the Nautiloid that he entered the artifact and set all of this in motion.
Also, notice the mind flayer beside you when you inevitably fall out of the crashing ship. That's the Emperor with the same head. I remember wondering for so long why the mind flayer was there if the mind flayer had been killed in the fight with the commander. But it was never the same mind flayer. It was the Emperor all along. And that shady creep probably used telekinesis to pry loose a bit of the ship to hit us in the head, knocking us off the ship.
He was in front of our faces the whole time.
