ANAKIN SKYWALKER
A small boy of nine, with a mop of sandy hair and inquisitive blue eyes. Quick and agile, he is unuasually strong in the Force. But his future is shrouded, wrapped in darkness and uncertainty. Not even the Jedi Masters can see what lies ahead for this boy. Anakin's unusual powers are discovered by Qui-Gon Jinn. Although the Jedi Council forbids Anakin to be trained, Qui-Gon Jinn still wants to train him. Before Qui-Gon died, Obi-Wan Kenobi promised to train him to be a jedi knight.

Anakin Skywalker, trained by Obi-Wan Kenobi, became a great jedi and brings balance to the force. But Obi-Wan has too much confidence in training Anakin, that Anakin was led by Palpatine to the dark side of the force. Palpatine released his hate and Anakin became a dark lord. After a fierce battle against Obi-Wan that wounded him badly, Anakin turned to the well-known villian of Star Wars trilogy - Darth Vader.
