Summary: Alternate Universe- What if Anakin's mother survived and Anakin never went dark side. Padme has the twins on Tatooine and survives. Anakin tries to help the surviving Jedi, while still keeping his family secret. Meanwhile Darth Sidious has been crowned emperor and is going after the remaining Jedi. Rumors have it he's looking for a new apprentice. Anakin gets to be a daddy.

Today I added a new chapter for Return of the Survivors. Below is a small selection. Please click one of my links above to read more.

Chapter 95 - Malachor’s Foil

The door opened and slammed shut. Beru winced and shook her head. “He didn’t agree?”

“No.” Her boy frowned and slouched at the table. “He didn’t even listen. Says I have to stay for another growing season. It’s not like I’m asking to join the empire. I’d just be going to see Uncle Anakin and the rebellion.”

I know, but your Father and Uncle don’t exactly agree on what constitutes a responsible citizen and the like. Call me selfish, but I’m glad he said no, for I would miss you terribly.”

“Oh Mom,” Mace-Ti turned, and she opened her arms to him, insisting on a hug. He gave way a few seconds later and embraced her back. They hadn’t started using the familiar terms with him, but then when he was six, he went through a phase where he named her Mamma-Beru, and it melted her heart. He still knows about his birth mama, She’s Mamma-Maris. And his birth father, Papa-Tel-Mac, though no one talks about him as much.

“Mamma, I just don’t feel like I’m meant to stay here, and live the life of a moisture farmer. Leia was my age when she went to join the rebellion. I just want to take that time to figure out where I am meant to go.”

Beru nodded. “I hear you. Why don’t you go wash up for dinner.” At her ushering her boy disappeared down the hallway further into the home. She grit her face with determination. Owen would be returning home soon, and she’d have to talk with him. A conversation she was going to hate, but a conversation that needed to happen.

***

Obi-Wan followed Anakin to the open space outside of the facility built on Dagobah. “Where did you learn of all these ancient Practices?” He asked. In his time as a Padawan, the youngling turned his nose up at history, and even this was a pretty trivial piece of the subject.

“The old Sith empires were built on slavery.” he shrugged. “I enjoy stories of Jedi actually doing what they should’ve been doing. And besides, since I’ve been in charge, and we’ve got an actual Sith out there, I figured why not research similar times. The rebellion may not have access to the Jedi archives, but their database on Jedi history is still quite large.”

Obi-Wan nodded. “I’m impressed.”

Anakin smiled. “I always said I’d get that research paper done one of these days.”

Obi-Wan rolled his eyes. While they were talking, Five other members of the Council joined them. It was the most they could gather in such a short timeframe.

“Alright everyone,” Anakin projected his voice. “We come together to see the trial of Tel-Mac Linnon, who has since gone by the pseudonym: Darth Vader.”

Master Coleman raised a hand. “I thought he was already tried by the Rebel Alliance.”

Obi-Wan stood with his hands behind his back, allowing his former Padawan to negotiate this difficult situation. It was true, he had been tried. But the Trial Anakin was referring to here wasn’t a legal trial in a court of law.

“By the Jedi Code, no formal execution is to be made of anyone, foreign power or loyalist, except for two circumstances. One, that the individual has taken up Sithly teachings, and spread them amongst the Jedi. Or two, that he had been trained in the Sithly ways and is a practitioner of their methods. This trial is how the Jedi of old used to determine whether either is taking place, or if there is anything left to save.”

“Save. Ha!” There was a low rumble of reaction to his words. Most Jedi still remembered their colony on Melren and how he attacked it.

Anakin didn’t stop. He walked between the gathered Jedi and lectured with his hands behind his back. This made Obi-Wan aware of where his own hands were, and he relaxed them forcibly by his side.

“While it is true, in recent years this old piece of the code has been mostly forgotten. I think even Master Windu would’ve cut the head off any Sith brought in and questioned it later.” Anakin paused here, but his audience didn’t laugh. “We are, unfortunately, in circumstances they weren’t in. I want the Jedi, under my leadership, to be a group that stands up for justice and not just vengeance. Now, Tel-Mac has a couple of things to his favor. First, he was trained with our own. And he wasn’t turned in the usual manner. Healer Youlao has examined his Force Presence and commented to me that he feels strange to her. In the old times, it was not completely uncalled for a Sith, even one as bad as Vader here, to pass this Trial. If Tel-Mac passes the trial, I will see that he is given every chance of turning back, without endangering our younglings. If it means throwing every form of Therapy in the Systems at him while he remains imprisoned here, then so be it.”

There was a rustle amongst the Councilors gathered, and Coleman was pushed to speak for them. “While I cannot pretend to have the same hope for him, I am glad you are considering protecting our younglings. Very well, If he proves he deserves it, let him stay here on Dagobah.”

“Thank you, Master.” Anakin nodded. “Anyone else?” Eyes almost closed in glares, but no one opened their mouth to share any dissent. Then he turned to Obi-Wan to nod. “Good. Go tell the healers to send out the Prisoner.”

Obi-Wan bowed, then turned to follow the command...

Vader's Fortress

Today's the dayyy! I posted the first chapter of Vader's Fortress to Wattpad! (Starting to put it on AO3 now!)

Since there are two prologues, one for Anakin and one for our MC, I went ahead and posted both of them! Here's Anakin's introduction into this SW parallel universe! It's a short one, enjoy!

And you can find the story here!

Anakin Skywalker was dead. He died with Padmé. With the Jedi. With the Republic. In his place was...me.

Darth Vader.

When Obi-Wan Kenobi turned his back on me, I gathered the last of my strength and dragged myself two, maybe three meters. According to Darth Sidious, if I had not done this, I would have caught aflame. I'd be unrecognizable—that is, if I survived at all.

I did not believe him. Didn't believe I saved myself.

I still needed the suit. It kept me alive, so long as I did not go long without it. I lost my left leg and my one real hand. The leg had melted, and I felt everything. Sometimes I still did. Multiple organs were damaged.

I still had pain. Saved myself?

No. I saved nothing.

Twelve hours. Max. That was how much time I could safely go without the suit or a special bacta chamber.

I tried to push it, of course. The longest I lasted was eleven hours and thirty-seven minutes before I could no longer breathe, my lungs unable to continue on their own. It felt as if they were collapsing.

At first, I despised the suit. Uncomfortable. Hot. Clunky. Restrictive.

Until I started realizing my strength within it—and my weakness outside it.

After recovering, I spent the first few weeks doing my master's bidding. Each task seemed to require more recovery, starting with Jedi Master Kirak Infil'a for his lightsaber.

I killed the self-exiled Jedi and bled his kyber crystal. I met the Inquisitors and put the 'Grand' Inquisitor in his place. I put in endless orders to the Kuat Drive Yards.

I bowed. Constantly. Palpatine had me on my knees each time we met, and then on my back in agony. Force lightning—worse than I remembered.

Not that it mattered. I deserved every moment of pain, every second of misery.

Why? Because I killed Padmé. My wife. The mother of my unborn child.

I don't know the details, the how or the when. It doesn't matter.

She is dead. And she took me with her. Whatever remained in this broken organic form...it was but a shell, fit only to hold the rage. There was no room for anything else.

I was a masochist. Proven by the red planet coming into view before me: Mustafar. The planet where I lost everything.

This was my second visit since Kenobi left me to die. Palpatine was rapidly building his palace over the fallen Jedi Temple, but Coruscant would never be my home. I needed a sanctuary, and I knew just where to build it.

I didn't know what I wanted, but I was beginning to know the dark side. And it was there on Mustafar.

So, maybe I enjoyed the pain. Maybe I simply felt I deserved it. Honestly, I didn't bother looking too deeply. At anything.

Skipping the cracked landing pad, I lowered my newly modified Actis starfighter to a patch of dried, cooled magma next to the wrecked mining facility. As the ship began to quiet, the sounds of the planet grew louder.

The pop of lava. The swoosh of high winds. Even a far-off roar of some hungry, pissed-off beast.

Eventually, I stalked off the ramp, only to be bombarded with heat, even in my suit. I pulled my hood over my helmet because, as always, I felt like I was being watched. Friend or foe was no longer a question I asked—everyone was an enemy.

I worked my way up a ridge just above the old mining complex until I found a spot that provided a complete view of the surrounding lands. The destruction from my duel with Obi-Wan was beginning to look like a part of the planet as the lava took the area back.

My mask let out two quiet beeps. I shifted to the direction it indicated and waited three full seconds before the reading came up.

A camera eye was following me from the complex walls.

Curious. There wasn't supposed to be anything in this area, not for miles. Nothing else was happening in the ruins, though there was another camera further down on the opposite side.

I shifted slowly, taking in every angle, working in a circle. My back was to the mining complex when I saw it: the very top of a permacrete entry, the kinds the Techno Union used all over Mustafar. I couldn't see the building beyond it, but I recalled a science laboratory being the closest facility.

There was too much distance to get any readings from it. I knew it was unlikely I would find anything there. It was probably Palpatine watching me.

And yet...There was a pull to the place. It didn't feel like the dark side. Nothing was calling out to me. It wasn't a nudge in the Force. No, it felt more real, as if my physical body was being gently tugged toward it.

But my body was my enemy, too. It was barely my own. So as my body felt the need to cooly approach the place, I treated it as I would any other unknown risk.

I took control and approached on my terms.

Okay, so after a little bit of thinking, I've put together a little Star Wars... theory? Observation? that I'd like to share.

Fear is Darth Vader's biggest strength, but also his biggest weakness.

So we all know this crazy overpowered, badass killing machine that is Darth Vader. Probably the most terrifying display of Vader's ruthlessness on-screen is the infamous Rogue One hallway scene (which I'm personally not a very big fan of, but I can't deny it's a good display of Vader's brutality).

Then there is this incredibly cheesy line from the comic:

In these instances, Vader moves with brutal efficiency and slices through his enemies effortlessly, as if they were just some insignificant vermin, like he wasn't affected by the suit at all. Because in cases like this, Vader feeds on the fear of his enemies. The Sith use negative emotions to gain power and while pre-suit Vader gained power through anger and hatred, post-suit Vader seems to grow more powerful when surrounded by fear.

This is why Vader works so hard to spread his infamy. Why he wants his mere presence to strike fear into everyone nearby, why he rules with an iron fist and punishes every little misstep with death. He wants to be surrounded by fear at all times, because that's when he is the most powerful.

And now, the opposite.

Post-suit Vader's first major battle was against Kirak Infil'a, an Order 66 survivor (Vader needed his Kyber crystal to "bleed" it and use it for his lightsaber). He nearly dies during the fight.

Then, Vader stood against the most badass granny Jocasta Nu who put up a hell of a fight.

And here, he's getting his ass handed to him by Padmé's handmaidens.

Even here, in Empire Strikes Back, Luke Skywalker, a barely trained Force user, can fight Vader on equal grounds.

Sure, in all these cases, he eventually wins the fight, but it's not as effortless and crushing victory, even when it's against enemies he should have defeated with ease. What do they have in common? These enemies don't fear him. Or they do, but their courage and determination is stronger than their fear. When there is no fear he can feed on, his power diminishes and all the limitations and pain connected to the suit become more prominent.

That brings us to the most recent episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Vader could have walked through the fire to finish Obi-Wan off, the suit would probably protect him. He could use the Force to pull him. But he doesn't. Then I realized the possible reason: he is petrified by fear - the fear of fire. It's only logical that the end of the Mustafar duel and its aftermath gave him a debilitating phobia. And when Vader himself is afraid, he's close to powerless. He is so used to feeding on fear around him he has no idea how to fight the fear within him. And this is his biggest weakness (and also the possible answer to the question why does his power level seem to fluctuate throughout the saga).

Okay, this has been my rant, maybe I don't make sense, do anything you want with this information 😁

Anyway Order 66 wasn’t that effective huh

We’re lead to believe in the original trilogy that Obi-Wan and Yoda were like, the only two to make it out. But then you watch the shows, read books and comics, play Fallen Order, and you’re like. Now hang on just a minute. Because Ahsoka Tano and Kanan Jarrus make it, Cal Kestis and Cere Junda make it, Grogu survived as a BABY, all of the inquisitors technically, now Gungi, and according to wookieepedia my beloved

Master Kirak Infil'a

Master Coleman Kcaj

Master Obi-Wan Kenobi

Master Taron Malicos

Master Jocasta Nu

Master Oppo Rancisis

Master Luminara Unduli

Master Uvell

Master Quinlan Vos (presumed)

Master Yoda

Knight/Jedi Temple Guard the Grand Inquisitor

Knight Cere Junda

Padawan Ferren Barr

Padawan Caleb Dume

Padawan Gungi

Padawan Cal Kestis

Padawan Trilla Suduri

Unidentified Rodian Jedi youngling

Former Master Eeth Koth

Former Padawan Naq Med

Former Padawan Ahsoka Tano

Zubain Ankonori

Selrahc Eluos

Fifth Brother

Grogu

Khandra

Ka-Moon Kholi

Mususiel

Masana Tide

Nari

Nuhj

Seventh Sister

Kira Vantala (According to legend)

So that’s 33 confirmed individuals and god only knows how many else ???????

All I’m saying is Order 66 was not that effective

hi sorry i just need to rant about lightsabers for a bit. (bear with me. i swear this isn’t just nitpicking the accuracy of physics and swordplay in a space opera, bc I swear I wouldn’t make a post JUST for that)

so, i have a bit of experience with swords. not actual swords, but bokken and wooden replicas, at least. i’ve been trained in basic shakespearian stage combat since i was 8 years old, but the only move I got really good at was the moulinet, aka that flippy thing everyone complains about in the prequels:

however, unlike everyone claims, THIS MOVE IS NOT USELESS. sure, it can be used to show “i’m fancy and well-trained,” but it’s ALSO extremely useful for acquainting yourself to the heft and length of your weapon, as well as readjusting your grip if your other hand is occupied (historically by a shield), or even if you just wanna do it quickly because you’re worried the other guy is about to stab/disarm you. it also helpfully keeps others at bay when your grip is at its weakest because they don’t wanna get hit by the blade and bleed tf out, much like poor anakin up there. Not to mention, IN UNIVERSE they can use moulinets to deflect blaster fire and seek openings in other saber users’ defenses.

HOWEVER X2: this move should not be possible with a plasma blade/”laser sword.”

plasma is weightless. the moulinet depends on the weight of the blade to function. imagine trying to do this move with a deadly flashlight instead of a sword, which is essentially what a lightsaber is. ewan and hayden were given sticks to stand in for the lightsaber blades, which is the only reason they can physically perform this move. (also probably why their stances are all so dumb -- the physics are COMPLETELY different. Only Makashi even vaguely resembles irl blade combat, and that’s because Christopher Lee was a fencer and George incorporated that. Maybe Ataru too, to a lesser extent, but that was because Liam Neeson got trained in broadsword combat for Rob Roy and kept accidentally using irl techniques during his fight scenes.)

BUT: that’s where the Force comes in.

Why is the lightsaber the signature weapon of ONLY the Jedi, when they can so easily be used to devastating effect? Simple answer: lightsabers are super fucking dangerous. They can cut through anything, with minimal effort, so if you drop it it can and will cut through whatever it touches, ESPECIALLY flesh and bone. it’s also weightless, and therefore it’s SUPER FUCKIN EASY to overexert yourself and cut through more than you intended, because it goes through your opponents and solid rock like a hot knife through butter. Even in metal’s case, it’s like a cold knife through fudge. if you aren’t Force-sensitive, you’re just as much of a danger to yourself and your companions as you are to your enemies. that’s probably why the mandalorians didn’t immediately manufacture a million more darksabers, despite it being the weapon equivalent of a wet dream for them: shit just isn’t practical. it’s a status symbol precisely because it’s such a pain in the ass to use.

but we KNOW there’s some force fuckery afoot with the kyber crystals, as well. they’re sentient, and the main way Force nulls can even use them is in giant superweapons. Jedi gotta bond with those little assholes, have to have a fucking vision quest before it will deign to be used by them. Sith have it even worse: they gotta break them to their will by running the gauntlet of their own worst (lightest, technically) thoughts and deepest self-doubts. in return, it sings to its Jedi, and screams at its Sith.

so i theorize that the only reason why saber users can keep track of where their blade is going is because the saber tells them through the Force. The moulinet is the ultimate expression of skill in saberplay because it signifies complete trust in, and a constant connection with, your crystal. There is a reason Anakin Skywalker often moulinets, and Darth Vader does not. His crystal chose him, and later chose his son, but he stole that red saber from Master Infli’a and made it bleed. It hates and fears him.

This is also likely why the Jedi emphasize control above all else: they don’t really need power or strength that much if the saber is doing 90% of the work for them. They just need to guide its path. Vader can probably get away with being reckless because of his plasteel armor and robot limbs (when Luke hit his armor in ESB it bounced right off). Instead of practicing restraint, as the Jedi did, he just cuts his son’s hand off when he wants to disarm him (eh? eh??). Severing limbs was typically a last resort for the Jedi, the final way to end a fight without killing your opponent, which is why it’s so tragic that Obi-Wan has to cut off so goddamn many to protect those he loves. It gets to the point that he’s pretty blase about the whole thing by the time of ANH. Vader does it to scold his kid. He’s at his farthest point in his fall here.

Anyway, the lightsaber physics of the sequels ended up REALLY bugging me because of this. Sure, they were hardly realistic in the earlier films, but at least they were consistent. This video essay makes a lot of great points, the primary one being that WHY IS NO ONE FUCKING DYING WHEN THEY GET HIT BY A LIGHTSABER. Finn should have lost the use of his legs, at the very least, and Kylo’s skull should have split open like a ripe melon. The REASON the comics emphasized that Asajj was showing off when she gave Anakin his facial scar is because it takes incredible precision to do that to someone without instakilling them, much less leaving him the use of his eye. Rey swung that shit at him like a baseball bat and Kylo was totally fine!

AAAAANYWAY, this is yet another reason in a fucklong list of why the Order has to start its training so young: so those cute lil babies don’t accidentally kill everyone with their Space Powers when they throw a tantrum or cut off something important whenever they get in a fight.

Hi! Yes, absolutely, Vader could do that, because that's precisely how he got his bled kyber crystal in canon, that he fought Kirak Infil'a to steal his crystal and force it to bend to his will. He could do the same thing with Obi-Wan’s crystal, but I think two things stop him: 1. After Obi-Wan’s death on the Death Star, it feels like a fire has gone out of Darth Vader. Some of this is that he’s getting older and he’s spent two decades in total misery, but without Obi-Wan to fixate on, with Obi-Wan gone from the galaxy, something vital in Darth Vader flickers out. Oh, he’s still an asshole and he’ll still do terrible things and he’ll become fixated on Luke, but there’s a certain drive in a particular direction that has gone out of him--and one I think that, having been stripped from him, allows him to turn more fully towards Luke, that without Obi-Wan’s pull there any longer, there’s one less gravitational star for Vader to feel the pull of, that now he truly has nothing, Padme’s dead, Obi-Wan’s dead, Ahsoka’s probably dead but if not she’s certainly willing to kill him. What’s the point of bleeding Obi-Wan’s crystal? Obi-Wan isn’t there to see him do it, Obi-Wan doesn’t care about worldly things anymore, Obi-Wan left all of it behind when he let Vader kill him, there’s just no fire in Vader there anymore. 2. I think Vader may also be afraid of what would happen if he tried it. When he bleeds Kirak’s crystal, the Force and the crystal blast a vision right in his face, one that shows him another path he could be on, shows him that he could do things differently, and it’s an incredibly powerful moment that takes all of his hate and rage to overcome. It’s not even Obi-Wan’s crystal and it still shoves a vision into his head of him killing Palpatine and finding Obi-Wan on some random planet and begging for help/death/forgiveness/whatever.

I think he’s terrified of what Obi-Wan’s kyber crystal would show him. after all the times the Force has tried to show him another way, has tried to show him that Obi-Wan loved him (and he can’t look at that knowledge so close to Obi-Wan’s death, to Obi-Wan leaving him again), has tried to show him that he’s spent all these years on the wrong path. I think he’s terrified of the fire that’s no longer burning in him, that he might get lost in another vision if it’s from Obi-Wan’s crystal. I think he already has a saber and Sidious is already disdainful of his obsession with Obi-Wan, so if he bled the crystal anyway, Sidious might punish him for it. I think he’s filling himself up with the mystery surrounding who this boy is that Obi-Wan gave his saber to instead of looking at his actual problems. And I think he’s lonely and this is all he has left of someone he knew loved him. FROM A CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW: THERE IS ANOTHER by Gary D. Schmidt

And it was right at that moment--at that exact moment--that Yoda felt Obi-Wan grow suddenly stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and then move in a quick burst into the netherworld of the Force. And Yoda felt Anakin fall even more deeply into painful loneliness. A loneliness so terrible that Yoda almost felt pity for him.

Vader could bleed the crystal if he wanted to (and there may one day come a story where they decide that he did, because we don’t know what happened to Obi-Wan’s saber after the Death Star, I could see a lot of interesting potential in that story idea), but I think he didn’t because he was too afraid of it and because it was too painful for him to do it, now that Obi-Wan had gone beyond anywhere he could reach.

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13534569/1/Return-of-the-Survivors

Summary: Alternate Universe- What if Anakin's mother survived and Anakin never went dark side. Padme has the twins on Tatooine and survives. Anakin tries to help the surviving Jedi, while still keeping his family secret. Meanwhile Darth Sidious has been crowned emperor and is going after the remaining Jedi. Rumors have it he's looking for a new apprentice. Anakin gets to be a daddy.

I’ve added chapter 41 to Return of the Survivors. Below is a small selection. Please click the link to read more:

Chapter 41 - First Date

“Good work, Galen. Now why don’t you go see what Luke and Leia are doing. There’s a council meeting in five, and I’m running late for it as it is.” Anakin checked his time-piece nervously.

“Okay. Say... Master Anakin, can I show Luke or- or Leia that thing you taught me today?” Galen nervously asked.

The master looked up. “Well....” Anakin remembered how at this age he was always told ‘No. No you can’t do that outside of official practice. No, you can’t show off in front of your friends.’ And truth be told, it was dangerous to allow a Padawan to do advanced Force-tricks without a Master present, but Anakin also remembered ignoring said rules numerous times. “I suppose so, as long as you ask your father or another Master to observe.”

“Thank you, Master Anakin.” Galen smiled and ran down the halls of the center to look for the Twins.

Anakin turned back towards the room the Jedi council had claimed as their meeting room. When he got there he looked around in confusion. Usually the doors were wide open, and most of the council members would be casually strolling in. Obi-Wan would always be waiting impatiently outside, and when Anakin arrived, he’d say something about it being rude to not show up on time. Of-course to Obi-Wan on-time was always ten minutes early, but still. Anakin checked his time-piece again. ‘ Nope, I’m right on time today.’ Anakin said to himself.

Anakin stepped up to open the council room doors, and that’s when he heard noise of voices inside.

“This is a good thing, I think we should allow it,” said Kirak Infil’a. Numerous voices began to object.

After several seconds a loud bang could be heard from Yoda’s stick as he called for attention.

“Thank you, Master Yoda,” said Obi-Wan. “We have already agreed to change the code to allow such things. What we have called this emergency session today for is to discuss how exactly to go about including our youngest members in it. The Padawans. They’re reaching an age where this is natural.”

This made Anakin very confused. ‘ Emergency Session! If the meeting was starting early, why didn’t anyone tell me?’

“May I speak,” Kirak requested. “As I was trying to say before, this is a good opportunity. The Youngling could have done this on her own, without saying anything to her parents or her Master, but she didn’t. Because of this we have an opportunity, here, to reward her openness with understanding, and to provide guidance as she goes about this stage. This is, indeed, a good thing.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Yoda hummed. Anakin felt himself nodding in agreement, as well. He didn’t know all of what they were discussing, but what kirak was saying sounded logical.

“Well, that may be the case. The trouble is, her father’s going to lose it. When An-” Obi-Wan started, but Yoda tapped his stick on the ground to stop him.

“Time for our regular meeting to begin, it is. Enter Skywalker,” said Yoda.

Anakin tiptoed into the room. “Greetings, Master. I apologize for my tardiness.” The first thing Anakin noticed was that Obi-Wan and some of the other council members wouldn’t give him eye contact. “I-uh was unaware of the emergency session.”

Others, like Master Yoda, wouldn’t look away. “Unnecessary, your apologies are. Told, you were not.”

“Yeah, about that?” Anakin said in an inquiring voice.

“To discuss, in part, your younglings, we have come,” said Yoda.

“Oh,” Anakin took in a deep breath. “What did the twins do now?” He took a seat.

“Nothing yet, they have done. Permission, young Leia has requested.”

Anakin sighed in relief. “Well, that isn’t so bad. What is she asking for?”

“Out with a young boy, she wants to go. Her first date, this will be. Yes?”

There seem to be a lot of people that think Vader is a cunning lacking brute

One can see Vader's intelligence in his fight scenes as well. He excels at pinpointing and exploiting stronger enemy's weaknesses.

Vs. Kirak Infil'a

Vader couldn't defeat this guy head on. How did he kill Infil'a? By forcing the Jedi to rescue innocent people during their fight, which allowed Vader to choke him.

Vs. Momin

Took advantage of Momin's loquaciousness.

Vs. Voidgazer's Rancor

There are many good examples!

Part 1/2 of a short fan-script where Nim and Rael go to Naboo with master Kirak Infil’a on a diplomatic mission, which quickly turns to them trying to stop a terrorist from bombing Theed Palace with King Veruna inside.

The bomber gets away, but Nim runs after the hooded man who hired him. A hooded man who’s more than he seems...

The inspiration for this was a podcast where a bunch of what-if lightsaber duel YouTubers all agree that Sidious masters the Forms at their most basic level, but not as well as any actual duelist (like Dooku, or Mace)... but that he doesn’t need to: his true power in combat comes from his unnatural speed and power in the Force, more than his skills with a lightsaber.

Also, I wanted to imagine Rael in action :3 Added a buncha easter eggs in the dialogue, hopefully some are noticed :)
