Anakin Skywalker

Anakin Skywalker is the protagonist of Star Wars: Knights of the New Empire.

About him
A native of the desert world of Tatooine, Anakin Skywalker started out a slave to a Toydarian junk dealer named Watto. However, unknown to everyone but his mother, Shmi, Anakin is the direct descendant of the legendary Jedi Revan. Shmi shared this knowledge with the boy, and Anakin took it to heart. This caused him to want to be a Jedi, and to dream of being a Jedi. Little did he know, he would soon get the chance. He met Jedi master Qui-Gon Jinn, who discovered his Force sensitivity and heritage, and the disguised queen of Naboo, Padme Amidala, his future wife, won his freedom in a podrace, freed his mother with a mix of the prize money and money made from selling his podracer, and was taken to Coruscant. However, at first, he was denied training, as Qui-Gon was training another padawan at the time, Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, after the great victory over the Trade Federation at the Battle of Naboo, Obi-Wan became a Jedi knight and Qui-Gon then became Anakin's master. For thirteen years, Anakin, the Jedi's chosen one, trained hard. At age twenty, he was reunited with Padme, the Clone Wars broke out, and Anakin, like Revan before him, married in violation of Jedi rules. After three years of violent war, Anakin found his destiny. Padme was pregnant with their first child, and Anakin had nightmares of her dying in childbirth. Anakin became Palpatine's Sith apprentice, Darth Vader and led an attack on the Jedi temple to turn Jedi to the dark side. However, Anakin then killed Palpatine and took his position as emperor of the Galactic Empire. Padme bore him twins, a son name Luke and a daughter named Leia. For over twenty years, Anakin ruled in peace. In that time, he even grew a beard, like his former master. However, the peace was soon shattered by the return of an old enemy, Darth Maul. He is the father-in-law to Jedi Mara Jade Skywalker, the wife of his son Luke, and Imperial officer and pilot Han Solo, the husband of his daughter Leia.
