Respect Darth Vader (Star Wars Canon)

#Respect Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith

---

Darth Vader! Lay down your weapons! You are surrounded!

#All I am surrounded by is fear. And dead men.

Once the heroic Jedi Anakin Skywalker, Darth Vader is one of the powerful Force users in the Star Wars Universe. Anakin was seduced by the evil Darth Sidious to turn to the dark side of the force by the promise of being able to save his pregnant wife, Padme Amidala, from near-death, which Anakin had been receiving premonitions of. Unfortunately, Anakin himself caused Padme's death by choking her in a fit of rage, thinking she had turned against him and was plotting his death.

This action led to Anakin having a final duel with his former Jedi master Obi Wan Kenobi on the volcanic planet Mustafar, which Obi-Wan won. Anakin was left to die on the planet, his limbs destroyed and his body gravely disfigured and injured by lava. Sidious found him, however, and Anakin was given a cybernetic suit of black armor to keep him alive, which also augmented his physical abilities, and thus he served Sidious as the enforcer of the Empire, now known as Darth Vader.
