Darth Vader:
Darth Vader is one of the most well known fictional characters from the series, “Star Wars”, and one of the most iconic villains of all time. Originally a jedi, Anakin Skywalker is lured to the dark side of the Force and eventually becomes the leader of the Galactic Empire alongside Emperor Palpatine. His fall is brought on during a battle with his son Luke, and former master. Darth Vader’s lightsaber was built after he lost his previous saber during a skirmish. His new lightsaber was used against the Jedi, along with other opponents. It was also used to destroy Obi-Wan Kenobi and cut off the hand of Luke Skywalker. The lightsaber was destroyed after the final battle, falling into the reactor shaft well.
