Darth Vader

Darth Vader, born Anakin Skywalker, was a Dark Lord of the Sith and the right-hand man of Emperor Palpatine. He eventually turned against his master at the Battle of Endor in order to save the life of his son.

Early Life

Anakin Skywalker was born into slavery on the planet Tatooine, where he spent much of his life as the property of a junk dealer named Watto. Jedi Knight Qui-Gonn Jinn met the boy in the junk shop while looking for parts to repair Queen Amidala's yacht. Anakin offered to help the Queen by winning a podrace, the winnings of which would cover the cost of the parts needed to repair the yacht. In a side bet with Watto, Qui-Gonn Jinn arranged to have Anakin released if he won the race, which he did. Anakin played a pivotal role in the Battle of Naboo, when he accidentally flew a Naboo starfighter into the hangar of the Trade Federation's droid control ship; from inside the shields, he was able to destroy the ship's main reactor, destroying the ship and disabling the Trade Federation's droid army on the ground.
