Anakin Skywalker
Original Trilogy

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.
~ Darth Vader to Conan Antonio Motti regarding the Death Star

I have been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now, I am the Master.
~ Darth Vader to Obi-Wan Kenobi

Vader: You are beaten. It is useless to resist. Don't let yourself be destroyed as Obi-Wan did. [They continue dueling. Luke hits Vader on the shoulder with his lightsaber. Vader returns the favor by cutting Luke's hand with his lightsaber. Luke screams in pain.] There is no escape. Don't make me destroy you. [deactivates his lightsaber] Luke, you do not yet realize your importance. You've only begun to discover your power. Join me, and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict, and bring order to the galaxy.
Luke:
[wincing] I'll never join you!
Vader: If only you knew the power of the dark side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me enough. He told me you killed him.
Vader: No. I am your father.
~ Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker, with the iconic reveal

Give yourself to the Dark Side. It is the only way you can save your friends. Yes, your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for them are strong.
~ Darth Vader to Luke Skywalker

Darth Vader: Luke, help me take this mask off.
Luke: But you'll die.
Darth Vader: Nothing.... can stop that now. Just for once, let me... look on you with my own eyes.
[Luke carefully removes Vader's mask to reveal Anakin's disfigured face underneath.] Now... go, my son. Leave me.
Luke: No. You're coming with me. I'm not leaving you here. I've got to save you.
Darth Vader:
[smiles] You already have, Luke. You were right. You were right about me. Tell your sister... you were right.
~ Darth Vader's last words in the original trilogy

History[]

Born into slavery on the planet Tatooine, Anakin Skywalker lived with his mother, Shmi Skywalker. From a young age, Anakin demonstrated incredible piloting skills and was one of the only humans known to have participated in the dangerous sport known as Podracing. When he was 9 years old, he was discovered by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, who after inspecting his blood, realized his potential in the force exceeded even that of the Jedi Order's most powerful members.

In a fateful podrace, Anakin won his freedom and was taken by Qui-Gon to join the Jedi Order. After Qui-Gon's sudden death, Obi-Wan Kenobi was appointed Anakin's master. Over the next ten years, Anakin and Obi-Wan became good friends. However, the Jedi code and the mandates of the Order conflicted with Anakin's emotional hardships, namely the death of his mother and his romantic feelings for Padmé Amidala. Despite these struggles, Anakin received the support and companionship of Sheev Palpatine, who helped keep Anakin mentally stable, just in time for a galaxy-wide conflict known as the Clone Wars.

During the first year of the conflict, in a rare move by the Jedi Order, Anakin would be appointed an apprentice of his own, Ahsoka Tano. During the three-year conflict, Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka were major players, and Anakin's piloting skill achieved greater heights and recognition. But when Ahsoka was expelled from the Jedi Order and chose not to come back after her innocence was proven, Anakin developed resentment toward the Jedi Order. In the final days of the Clone Wars, Anakin began experiencing premonitions of Padmé's death shortly after learning she was pregnant with their child.

Determined to find a solution to his problem, Anakin faced further issues and was not granted the rank of Jedi Master despite being appointed to the Jedi Council. With fewer options, Anakin sought an audience with Palpatine, who revealed his hidden identity as Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord who orchestrated the Clone Wars. Although Anakin informed the Jedi of Palpatine's identity, he would betray them to save his life.

In doing so, he was anointed Darth Vader and carried out the grand plan of the Sith by committing mass genocide on the Jedi Order, which would make him strong enough with the Dark Side of the Force to be capable of saving Padmé's life. Intoxicated by his newfound heights of power, Vader would battle Obi-Wan in a fateful duel that saw him defeated and burned alive, only narrowly escaping with his life.

Palpatine rescued Vader before placing him inside an armor with a mobile life support system, completing his transformation into Darth Vader. As the Republic transformed into the Empire, Darth Vader removed all traces of Anakin Skywalker from history and faithfully served Emperor Palpatine and the Galactic Empire for over two decades before learning his child, Luke Skywalker, lived. Unbeknownst to him and Luke, there was another, Leia Organa.

Seeing his son as his only chance of defeating Palpatine, Vader made multiple attempts to lure his son to the Dark Side, but failed each time until his final defeat at Luke's hands. However, Luke renounced the Dark Side and proclaimed himself a Jedi, just like his father. An angered Palpatine decided to kill Luke, but Anakin Skywalker acknowledged there was still good in him, and sacrificed himself to defeat the Emperor, saving Luke's life. Redeemed, Anakin transcended into the Force and became a Force Ghost, he happily watched on as his son successfully brought about the return of the Jedi.

  • The highest recorded force sensitivity level of any Jedi before him

Disney Canon / Both:

  • With the Force, one can amplify their physique, giving a boost to durability, stamina, speed, physical strength, and more.
  • Force Choke: One of the most famous moves on the Dark Side of the Force. Darth Vader strangles the opponent using his force powers.
  • Force Crush: Vader uses the force to crush objects.
  • Force Scream: Force ability used to disorient and intimidate foes. A strong enough scream can damage physical objects.
  • Telekinesis: This is one of the more versatile components of Darth Vader's force arsenal. He is capable of pushing foes back, forming barriers with the force, disarming people, and even crushing the organs of the opponent.
  • Force Deflection
  • Force Healing
  • Precognition: Through the force, Darth Vader can see into the future. In battle, he can use it by predicting what his opponent will do next, and act accordingly. This heavily augments his reactions.
  • Tutaminis: Enables Vader to dissipate concentrated energy, or channel it away.
  • Force Speed (rarely)
  • Force Barriers/Protection bubbles

  • Inhuman resilience
  • Durability

EU / Legends Only:

  • He can drastically increase the range that his Force can reach the "Distant Power"

  • Dun Moch: The user probes the opponent's mind, then uses it to his advantage to break down the opponent's will. More proficient users of this ability can invade even more resistant force users.
  • Force Stun: Vader paralyzes the opponent, deadening their senses and perception.
  • Memory Manipulation

    • Defeated his former Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, and his son

Sidious being a person who is stated to be strongest Sith Lord ever multiple times, in addition to having ravaged planet surfaces and whole fleets.

  • Withstood a storm of Force Lightning from Sidious, who, at his peak, was able to lay waste to the surfaces of entire planets and ravage whole starfleets, and slaughter Jedi with unparalleled speed, before finally dying from his wounds.

Faults[]

  • Dependent on Breathing Apparatus (because his lungs are damaged)
  • Dark Armor is intentionally faulty (by Palpatine to prevent Vader from rebelling against him)
    • Random beeping at his chest
    • Mismatched parts
    • Synthetic skin itches
    • Heavy weight, reducing his speed
    • Breathing keeps him awake even in bouts of exhaustion
  • Can underestimate his opponents
  • Weakness to lightning or strong electrical discharges, as it could short circuit his armor. (He was eventually killed by Sidious' force lightning)
  • Can be overpowered by Jar'Kai users (such as Galen Marek and his clone)
  • His armor is heavy. Although he can still use Force Speed, he is relatively slower and less agile than the average Jedi
  • Continues serving his master despite knowing that he manipulated his entire life and is continuously looking to replace Vader
  • His Injuries stopped him from reaching his full potential with the Force, though he is still very much a powerful Force user
    • Is in constant pain; although this does benefit his connection with the Dark Side
    • The Emperor intentionally made Vader's armor faulty so that Vader would never be able to surpass him.
  • Contrary to popular belief; Lightsabers can't cut through everything

Trivia[]

  • Darth Vader is the third Star Wars character to appear in DEATH BATTLE!. The first two being Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker.
    • He is the second Star Wars character to lose a DEATH BATTLE!, following Boba Fett
  • Darth Vader is the second non-DC character to lose to a Marvel character, the first being Raiden.
    • Despite this, a Spanish Versus Internet Show that's similar to Death Battle called Batalha Mortal (or Mortal Battle in English) states that Darth Vader would win against Dr. Doom due to the fact he can't counter Darth Vader's ability to mess up his organs through The Force (it should be pointed out that Batalha Mortal has done a striking number of VS fights that Death Battle has already done, all of those fights agree with the only exception of Darth Vader VS Dr. Doom).
  • Orson Welles was considered to be the voice of Vader but was considered too recognizable since the actor was so famous.
