Villainous Darth Vader   

The name Darth Vader strikes fear in the hearts of many whenever he appears in film or literature due to his widespread infamy in pop culture. Before he succumbed to the lure of the Dark Side, Darth Vader used to be a promising Jedi named Anakin Skywalker. Mentored by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, young Anakin trained vigorously in the ways of the Force. Anakin’s blood contained more microscopic life forms called Midi-Chlorians than any other human’s, so his power was unparalleled by any challengers. Drawn to the Dark Side by Emperor Palpatine, Anakin subsequently took the name Darth Vader. He later became the main antagonist of heroes Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, later revealed as his biological children. After a long, epic battle between Luke and Emperor Palpatine, Darth Vader sacrificed himself to save his son. His meaningful sacrifice defending Luke completed his redemption arc.
