Darth Vader regretted many things, primarily his role in Padmé's death, the murder of the younglings, losing his body, and his ultimate failure to save his family, but he was trapped by guilt, pain, and the dark side, channeling his unending remorse into power until his final redemption when he chose to save Luke, finally letting go of the Vader persona. He regretted turning to the dark side and losing himself, but felt too far gone, using his self-hatred and grief as fuel for the Sith.
You can see in Star Wars Lore the constant battle between Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader. I think Anakin Skywalker regretted what he had done, but Darth Vader never looked back. He definitely regretted it. He was so desperate to save Padme that he'd do anything, and it didn't even work.
In the Star Wars comic, Darth Vader has to focus on his hatred and pinpoint the thing he hates most in the galaxy. 💢 His mind glided over many individuals, including Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and himself. However the true source of his anger is Palpatine. 😡
The saddest Star Wars deaths often involve poignant sacrifice, broken relationships, or innocent lives lost, with fan favorites including Kanan Jarrus (heroic sacrifice for his family), Duchess Satine (Obi-Wan's lost love, brutally killed by Maul), Clone Trooper 99 (innocent loyalty and tragic end), Tech (sacrifice for his squad), Padmé Amidala (heartbreak and loss of hope), and Han Solo (fatherly tragedy). These deaths resonate due to their emotional impact, the characters' potential, or the deep impact on other heroes.
Vader breaks free of the operating table and takes a few steps before doing the only thing anybody in his position could do, he screams an unholy, bloodcurdling scream. His vocal computer has nothing close to this sound in its database so it translates it to the infamous 'Noooooooooo'.
Darth Vader's most famous line is undoubtedly "No, I am your father," from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, a shocking reveal that's one of cinema's biggest twists, though it's often misquoted as "Luke, I am your father". Other iconic lines include "I find your lack of faith disturbing" and "You underestimate my power," showcasing his menacing presence and the Dark Side's influence.
Revenge of the Sith
Palpatine explains that Plagueis was so powerful and wise, he had mastered the dark side of the Force to such an extent that he could cheat death (mostly saving people he cared about from death) and create life; unnatural abilities which are unknown to the Jedi.
In Star Wars lore, Order 37 was a grim Clone Trooper contingency plan to capture a wanted individual (often a Jedi) by taking a civilian population hostage, locking down the area, and threatening mass execution if the target wasn't surrendered, making it a horrific tactic used by the Empire to force Jedi compliance. It was considered more brutal than Order 66 because it targeted civilians directly, forcing Jedi to often turn themselves in to save innocent lives, as seen on planets like Bellassa.
George Lucas said Vader was full of anger and hate and desire to avange Padmé on the universe. Suicide or self-punishment wasn't in his mind, not at all, he is raging against the Fates as Lucas put it. Also, he - just like he said to Padmé and later Luke - wants to be an Emperor.
Among other things, 327 is a docking bay number aboard the Death Star in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), a landing platform in Cloud City in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and a Naboo ship type in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999).
When comparing Darth Vader's Jedi kill count to other Sith Lords like Darth Sidious, Darth Maul, or Count Dooku, Vader arguably holds the highest body count. While Sidious orchestrated the Jedi Purge, it was Vader who became the primary executor on the ground, relentlessly hunting Jedi for over two decades.
The clone commando RC-1136, known as Darman Skirata, got Jedi Knight Etain Tur-Mukan pregnant during the Clone Wars, resulting in their son, Venku Skirata, a Force-sensitive child born outside the Jedi Code's restrictions. Their forbidden relationship and child's birth were detailed in the Republic Commando novels, highlighting the complexities of clone troopers' development and the strictures of the Jedi Order, as Etain was killed shortly after Order 66 while protecting her family.
BACKGROUND INFO: What is Order 69? Order 69(AKA "clean up") was the idea to kill the entire clone army in one sitting, leaving the Jedi defenseless and exposed by the sudden departure.
Clone 99, or simply 99, was a human male clone of Jango Fett bred to be a clone trooper for the Galactic Republic's Grand Army. However, he was rendered genetically defective in the cloning process, and instead of serving in the army, he was assigned to be a maintenance duty clone on his home planet of Kamino.
The answer, revealed in Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, rewrote much of what we thought we knew. Rey is the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine, also known as Darth Sidious or Sheev Palpatine—not through a traditional lineage, but through a failed clone named Dathan, Rey's father.
“You underestimate my power!”
Praised all his life for how special and skilled he is, Anakin carries himself as any prophesied Chosen One would. He's slightly arrogant. And most of the time, he has the talent to back his confidence up. But not in his final duel against Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Kenneth Colley, whose stone-cold portrayal of Admiral Firmus Piett, Darth Vader's trusted officer, in the Star Wars film “The Empire Strikes Back” turned him into a fan favorite and earned him a call back for “Return of the Jedi,” has died.
“You were right about me. Tell your sister… you were right.” Those were the last words Anakin Skywalker, aka Darth Vader, ever said while he was alive.
