Anakin Skywalker was a Force-sensitive human male who served the Galactic Republic as a Jedi Knight, and later the Galactic Empireas the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Born into slavery on the Outer Rimworld of Tatooine, Skywalker was discovered by the Jedi Order as the Chosen One of Jedi prophecy, destined to defeat the Sith and bring balance to the Force. In the years leading up to the devastating Clone Wars, he was apprenticed to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Skywalker secretly married his love since childhood, Senator Padmé Amidala. Towards the end of the Clone War, Skywalker was blessed with the news of pending fatherhood when Amidala announced she was carrying their first child, but this joy became sorrow when Skywalker became plagued with visions of his wife’s demise in childbirth. His desire to protect those he loved drove him to the dark side of the Force, leaving him in darkness for decades until his final redemption.
