Darth Vader – Emperor’s Wrath: Character Background
“Although Darth Vader would perish without his body armor’s life support system, he remains a powerful and imposing figure, His black suit and the dark side of the Force protect him from numerous opponents until he loses his cybernetic right hand in a fateful lightsaber duel with Luke Skywalker on the second Death Star.” – Jedi Fact File, Darth Vader – Emperor’s Wrath action figure.
When movie audiences were first introduced to Lord Darth Vader in 1977’s Star Wars (now known as Episode IV: A New Hope), the character was, first and foremost, the personification of the Galactic Empire’s evil and oppression. He was a dark and menacing figure, dressed all in black, with a face forever covered by a skull-like breath mask that kept Vader alive while helping to instill terror even in the most resolute of Rebel or Imperial personnel. He looked like a droid of some kind, yet the mechanically controlled breathing and his flashes of anger revealed that he was at least partially human. But other than the fact that Vader had once been a Jedi Knight (and Obi-Wan Kenobi’s young pupil) who was seduced by the dark side of the Force and allegedly killed Luke Skywalker’s father after the Clone Wars, Star Wars creator George Lucas revealed very little about one of cinema’s most popular villains.
