Darth Vader, also known as Anakin
Skywalker, is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe. Vader appears in
the original trilogy as a pivotal figure whose actions drive the plot of the
first three films while his past as Anakin Skywalker, and the story of his
corruption, is central to the prequel trilogy.
The character was created by George Lucas
and has been portrayed by numerous actors. His appearances span the first six
Star Wars films, and his character is heavily referenced in Star Wars: The
Force Awakens. He is also an important character in the Star Wars expanded
universe of television series, video games, novels, literature and comic books.
Originally a Jedi prophesied to bring balance to the Force, he falls to the
dark side of the Force and serves the evil Galactic Empire at the right hand of
his Sith master, Emperor Palpatine (also known as Darth Sidious). He is also
the father of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa, grandfather of Kylo Ren,
and secret husband of Padmé Amidala.
The American Film
Institute listed him as the third greatest movie villain in cinema history on
100 Years... 100 Heroes and Villains, behind Hannibal Lecter and Norman Bates.

I am new to the
world of anime, comicon, and cosplay, so if I try to identify a character and
get it wrong, please cut me some slack. Thanks
