Anakin Skywalker is one of the main protagonists of the Star Wars franchise.

He is a legendary Jedi Knight and the hero of the Clone Wars, in addition to being the prophesied Chosen One of the Jedi Order, conceived by the midi-chlorians in his mother’s womb, to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force. Known for his combat skills, cunning and bravery, he became known as the Hero With No Fear and was one of the few Jedi still loved and respected by Republic citizens.

He was the Padawan of Obi-Wan Kenobi, the master of Ahsoka Tano, the third and final Sith apprentice of Darth Sidious (after Darth Maul and Count Dooku), the husband of Padmé Amidala, the father of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, the father-in-law of Han Solo, and the grandfather of Kylo Ren.

In the Legends continuity, he is the father-in-law of Mara Jade Skywalker, the grandfather of Jacen Solo/Darth Caedus, Jaina Solo, Anakin Solo, and Ben Skywalker, the great-grandfather of Allana "Amelia" Solo, and the ancestor of Nat Skywalker, Kol Skywalker, Cade Skywalker, Ania Solo, Emperor Roan Fel and Princess Marasiah Fel.

He betrayed the Jedi and became a Sith Lord known as Darth Vader when he fell to the Dark Side until he sacrificed himself to save his son, Luke and killed Darth Sidious. He becomes a Force Spirit along with Kenobi and Yoda.

Portrayals[]

Personality[]

What would have surprised people was how kind he was. He cared deeply about his friends, and looked out for them until the end.
~ Ahoska Tano telling Ezra about her master and his true personality.

As a child, Anakin was thoughtful, selfless, loyal, brave, and very intelligent for his age.

As an adult, Anakin developed into a more prideful, arrogant, loyal, and reckless young man, but he was still kind, caring, and selfless. Although he was a loving person, he was known to hold grudges and was vengeful, but he was often able to hold these traits in check. He also hated being treated unjustly or being wrongly accused, and grew to hate being criticized or lectured, which was one of the reasons his friendship with Obi-Wan was tense. This arrogance, however, should not be mistaken for heartlessness. He possessed a very altruistic spirit, and he cared deeply for not only his friends and loved ones, but for all free people of the galaxy. He was known for breaking protocol and disobeying orders if it meant saving lives, whether they be fellow Jedi and clones, or innocent civilians. To his enemies, however, Anakin can be a terrifying and unforgiving figure.

Despite his pride as a Jedi, Anakin was not above apologizing or admitting when he was wrong; unlike most members of the Jedi Order, he acknowledged his mistakes and learned from them as well, as he was one of the few members of the Jedi Order who knew there was flaws in the Jedi Teachings and the Jedi Code. He was a naturally honest person and despised lying and deception, from his friends, allies and enemies alike. He disliked politics, considering most politicians to be arrogant and greedy.

As his fame grew, he became more prideful and overconfident, as Anakin knew he was one of the best Jedi in the Jedi Order and secretly believed that he could easily best any Jedi blindfolded with his lightsaber tied behind his back. Although he could sometimes be aggressive, brutal, unpredictable and cocky, Anakin still had a strong sense of justice, honor and good morals. He also carried guilt and remorse for his violent deeds and the loss of some of his loved ones, especially the loss of his mother. In fact, Anakin had a major flaw: his fear of loss and great attachment to those close to him, as shown by how he was reluctant to leave his mother behind and become a Jedi, was angry and vengeful at one point when Obi-Wan seemingly died and was extremely affected when his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano left the Jedi after she was wrongly accused for bombing the temple. This fear of loss, exacerbated by his premonitions of Padmé Amidala dying and coupled with his failure to save his mother from her death, led him to find any way to save her from dying which Palpatine took advantage of and used to convert him to the dark side by promising him the power to save the ones he loves from dying.

As a general within the ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic, Anakin was renowned for his leadership skills and admired by clones, Jedi and politicians alike. Anakin made it clear to those under his command that he would never ask them to do anything he was unwilling to do himself and as Captain Rex stated, he would not risk the lives of those under his command without risking his as well. This legacy resulted with the media giving him the moniker, "The Hero with No Fear" and he was one of the very few Jedi the public actually liked.

During the Clone Wars, Anakin, like his then-apprentice Ahsoka Tano, matured and became more responsible in many ways, but this did not stop him from being reckless and impulsive sometimes. He was not as forgiving as his wife Padmé, as he rarely forgave people in general, particularly Obi-Wan and the other Jedi Masters (like Yoda and Mace Windu), for constantly lying to him or deceiving him.

After he became Darth Vader, Anakin became a cold hearted, ruthless, villainous twisted villain who enforced Darth Sidious' will. Towards the end of his life, Anakin doubted there was any good left in him. His son Luke disagreed, and risked his life to save his father from Sidious' grasp. In the end, it was his son's love for him that brought him back to the light side. It took Luke's torture by Sith lightning to turn Anakin back to the light as he refused to have his son die just as his own mother and wife once did.

Saving his son at the cost of his own life while he avenged his former nemesis Count Dooku, Anakin completed the prophecy attributed to him at birth by destroying the Sith. This act simultaneously brought balance to the Force and enabled Anakin to transform into a Force spirit.

While dying, Anakin ask Luke to remove his mask off when he wants to see his face with his own eyes. He tells Luke to leave him as he is already dying. Anakin tells Luke that he already have saved from the Dark Side of the Force. His last words to Luke that he was right about Anakin still having good side in him and request him to tell his sister, Leia, that he was right about him. Luke burned his body and armor on Endor. At the celebration on Endor right after, Anakin appeared to Luke, alongside Yoda and his former master, Obi-Wan, finally happy and at peace.

Powers and Abilities[]

You were right. The Force within him is stronger than any known Jedi. I've trained him as well as I could but he is still willful and balance alludes him.
~ Obi-Wan to Qui-Gon on Mortis

As the Chosen One, a being conceived by the Force itself, Anakin was immensely powerful and had an amazingly strong connection to the Force, stronger than any Force user ever in existence and those after him. He possessed the potential to become the most powerful being in entire the history of the galaxy. According to Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin's Force potential would have surpassed that of even Yoda, the most powerful Jedi who ever lived at that point in time, and Darth Sidious, the most powerful Sith of all time. According to George Lucas, a full potential Anakin would at the very least be twice as powerful as Darth Sidious.

However, it is crucial to note there is a difference between what Anakin's power could have been and what his power actually was, as Anakin never reached his potential while alive. Regardless, Anakin was still one of the strongest Force users to ever live and was regarded as the most powerful Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars. By the Clone Wars end, only the likes of Yoda, Darth Sidious, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu were capable of rivalling or besting him.

Powers[]

  • The Force: Anakin, due to his nature, possessed a massive connection to the Force, and his raw power and potential were unrivalled in the franchise. Despite his raw power in the Force, he more focused on lightsaber combat than honing his Force abilities, which shown during the Clone Wars, where Anakin somewhat struggled against Force attacks in battle; an irony given his natural talent as a Jedi. Although he did manage to overpower the Daughter and the Son. Notably, this weakness has allowed foes such as Dooku and Ventress to counter Anakin's raw strength during every lightsaber duel. When holding back, his resistance to telekinesis also weakens significantly, thus failing to outmuscle Bariss' Force push. However, Anakin was not always blunt with his powers, and there were instances where he displayed cunning and precision, most notably during his final battle with Durge,
    • Telekinesis: Anakin utilized Telekinesis either as offensive or defense.
      • Force Push: Anakin utilized Force Push to send his opponents flying through the air, causing them serious injury or temporarily incapacitating them/knocked them unconscious.
      • Force Pull: Anakin utilized Force Pull to pull his opponents or objects towards him.
      • Force Choke: Against the Jedi Code, Anakin often utilized Force Choke to either weaken, interrogate and sometimes even kill his enemies. These moments were rare at first, but slowly become more common as Anakin slips further to the dark side.
      • Force Grip: Anakin utilized Force Grip to lift his opponents off the ground and into the air to immobilize them.
      • Force Crush: Anakin utilized Force Crush to crush objects, including droids.
      • Force Barrier: Anakin utilized Force Barrier to created a barrier or wall of Force energy around himself or his allies.
      • Force Deflection: Anakin utilized Force Deflection to redirect incoming attacks such as blaster bolts with or without his lightsaber.
    • Mind Trick: Anakin utilized Mind Trick to control the minds of other sentient beings, however, it did not work on individuals who have very strong wills.
      • Beast Control: Anakin utilized Beast Control to control the minds of animals.
    • Force Jump: Anakin utilized Force Jump, to jump or leap great distances.
    • Force Speed: Anakin utilized Force Speed, to move at amazing speed. The Separatist mercenary Durge, an experienced and ruthless Jedi killer, noted during his fight with Anakin that he was the fastest Jedi he had ever fought.
    • Force Vision: Anakin utilized Force Vision, to have visions of the past, the present and the future; however, like all force users, his visions were not always clear or sometimes had visions even when he was not utilizing this power at will as shown by his premonitions of both his mother and Padmé in pain or dying.
    • Force Sense: Anakin utilized Force Sense, to sense another sentient being's emotions, the future, ripples in the Force caused by momentous or traumatic events, or impending danger and the presence of the dark side.
    • Force Rage: Anakin utilized Force Rage to channel his anger to increase his speed, strength, ferocity and to overwhelm his opponents. However, doing so ran the risk of being corrupted by the dark side.
    • Force Transfer: Anakin once utilized a power which is a variation of Force Drain and Healing, managing to transfer the life energy from one individual to another to revive someone from death. It was performed at Mortis by Anakin on the Daughter and Ahsoka Tano. With the Daughter's help, Anakin drained her life energy and transferred it to Ahsoka, bringing his apprentice back to life after the Son killed her.
    • Dampen Force: Anakin utilized Dampen Force to temporarily block certain Force powers such as Force Push or Force Pull.
    • Oneness: Anakin can utilized a state of union with e was able to achieve Oneness for the first time during the Battle of Praesitlyn, using both the light and dark sides of the Force to decimate Separatist forces. While channeling the power of Mortis he became one with the Force again, temporarily becoming powerful enough to subdue the Son and Daughter.  At the moment of his redemption during the Battle of Endor, his selfless love for his son allowed him to enter this state for a final time, the light side of the force giving him all the strength he needed to fulfill his destiny and destroy Darth Sidious, however this act cost Skywalker his life..
    • Force Spirit: When Anakin died from the injuries he received from Palpatine, after he sacrificed his life to save his son Luke Skywalker, he was able to transcend physical death, preserving his identity through the Force. Anakin was only able to become a Force spirit due to both his immensely powerful connection to the Force and redemption, and he likely learned this from one of the Jedi Masters who learned this power from the Force Priestesses, as Qui-Gon Jinn, Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi.
    • Force Healing: Anakin has some experience with Force healing, learning it during his time as a Padawan shortly after the Battle of Jabiim. While he is shown using it, he likely never mastered it.
    • Mechu-deru: Due to his skill with technology as well as his feats during the Clone Wars while fighting droids, it is likely Anakin was skilled in mechu-deru, the ability to manipulate droids and other machinery.
  • Cyborg Strength: Anakin utilizes his cybernetic hand in combat, as it gave him greater strength to easily subdue, restrain and overpower his opponents. It can function as a bludgeon.

Abilities[]

  • Lightsaber Combatant: Even during an era noted for producing many of the greatest duelists ever, Anakin was still able to stand out, being extraordinarily skilled in lightsaber combat and an exceptionally gifted duelist, with people such as Kanan Jarrus calling him one of the greatest warriors the Jedi had produced. Anakin used his Force powers to increase his physical speed and agility to make his lightsaber skills more lethal in combat; this made him a formidable opponent in single combat. He also possessed the potential to become the greatest lightsaber duelist in the history of the galaxy. His skill as with a lightsaber allowed him to best the likes of Asajj Ventress, Count Dooku, and hundreds of Jedi during Operation: Knightfall, most notable Cin Drallig, the Jedi Battlemaster and one of the greatest duelists of the order.
    • Form I: Anakin was highly skilled in Shii-Cho.
    • Form II: Anakin has some skill in Makashi, often switching from two-hand stances to a one-hand stances.
    • Form III: Being trained under Obi-Wan, Anakin has some skill in Soresu. Although Anakin favored more offensive forms, he was able to use Soresu on several occasions ranging from deflecting blaster bolts and in lightsaber combat.
    • Form IV: Anakin was extremely skilled in Ataru. As a Padawan, Anakin studied Ataru, as it fit his flashy, bold, and aggressive personality—he would later use those same traits to become a skilled Form V practitioner. During the last years of the Galactic Republic, Anakin Skywalker made adjustments to the classic Form IV techniques and created a variation of Form IV for deflecting blaster fire. This was demonstrated in a holographic recording, later found in Holocron owned by Kanan Jarrus.
    • Form V: His preferred style, Anakin was a master of Shien/Djem So, considered by many to be the most proficient practitioner of the style. He briefly fought Dooku with this style in Attack of the Clones. And later during his final match against Dooku aboard the Separatist flagship Invisible Hand, Skywalker deceived the Sith with a Shien opening stance and Ataru acrobatics, but during the duel he returned to his own preferred Djem So strokes. The Sith Lord was barely able to deflect the Jedi Knight's blows and was eventually scorched when his own blade was forced back onto his shoulder. Using Form V, Skywalker pushed Dooku back with powerful blows, bolstered by use of rage in the fight, until he eventually disarmed and killed the Sith.
    • Form VI: Anakin was highly skilled in Niman, integrating telekinetic attacks into his lightsaber move set. Anakin frequently used his Niman training to incorporate use of the Force into his dueling style and also had advanced his abilities in the form enough to instruct his Padawan Ahsoka Tano in the lower levels of the style as a training exercise. As Darth Vader, he started incorporating elements of Niman swordplay alongside the other forms after retooling his dueling style and retained his advanced skill in Niman's techniques of incorporating the use of the Force in combat.
    • Form VII: Although he was forbidden to study Juyo, Anakin knew some of the basics to apply it in his original Djem So variation.
    • Jar'Kai: Although Anakin was trained in Jar'Kai by Obi-Wan Kenobi, he was not very skilled at it, due to the fact that he did not practice with it much, as he was working on this mostly as an exercise in control and was doubtful that he would ever need to apply it. Anakin's assumption was proven wrong when he wielded two lightsabers against Dooku during the First Battle of Geonosis; though he was able to briefly catch the Sith Lord off guard, his lack of skill at dual-blade combat resulted in him losing his second lightsaber in mere seconds. During the Clone Wars, Anakin's skills in Jar'Kai greatly improved to the point where he was able to defeat the recently turned Dark Jedi Barriss Offee with little difficulty, thus becoming much more proficient with dual lightsabers.
  • Master Hand-To-Hand Combatant: Anakin was highly skilled in unarmed combat.
  • Master Marksman: Anakin was very proficient in the use of blaster pistols. During the Clone Wars, Anakin used a pair of X-8 Night snipers to fight off several members of Endente's arms dealing group due to being deprived of his lightsaber. While rescuing Obi-Wan, Anakin used a E-5 blaster rifle from a battle droid to take out several droids to reclaim his lightsaber.
  • Master Pilot: Anakin was extremely skilled in piloting various speeders and every type of flying craft. As Obi-Wan would later put it, he was the best star-pilot in the history of the galaxy.
  • Master Engineer: Even as a child, Anakin was amazingly skilled in engineering for someone of his age. At the age of nine, he was able to successfully build his own podracer, at the age of thirteen, he was able to successfully construct his first blue bladed lightsaber in his first try. He was also known to tinker around with droids and planes in his free time, even as a Jedi Knight, since it was a reminder of his childhood.
  • Genius-Level Intellect/Master Tactician/Leader: Even as a child, Anakin was amazingly intelligent for someone of his age. As a Jedi General, Anakin was a highly skilled tactician and a very capable leader.
  • Multilingual: Anakin was capable of fluently speaking Galactic Basic, Huttese and Bitt.
