Palpatine saved Darth Vader on Mustafar because Vader was an invaluable, powerful tool for galactic control, a symbol of fear, and represented a massive investment of training. Rather than discard Anakin Skywalker, Palpatine preserved his potential, using Vader's immense suffering and new dark side identity to create a more controlled, intimidating enforcer for the Empire, fulfilling his own goals for power and ultimately serving as a key agent for subjugating the galaxy and hunting remaining Jedi.
No, Palpatine did not care even in the slightest for Vader. Sheev only had affection for himself. He cared for Vader only as a tool and weapon.
No, Darth Plagueis is not Anakin Skywalker's biological father, but there's a strong theory (especially in Star Wars Legends and early drafts) that his experiments with midi-chlorians to create life led the Force itself to create Anakin, the Chosen One, as a reaction, making Plagueis the "unintentional father" of the prophecy. In current canon, Plagueis is a legend Palpatine uses to lure Anakin, and the exact nature of Anakin's conception by the Force remains a mystery, though he had no conventional father.
Why was Darth Sidious kind to Anakin but cruel to Darth Vader? Palpatine was “kind” to Anakin because he was a disgusting and abusive manipulator who groomed an innocent child. You don't gain a child's trust and affection by outright mistreating or being unkind to them.
Darth Maul is the weakest. Bane was strong : he killed all the Sith and lots of Jedi.
Anakin Skywalker, one of the main characters in the "Star Wars" films, meets the criteria for borderline personality disorder (BPD).
"Not from a Jedi." Sidious remembered Plagueis as a powerful Sith who discovered the ability to achieve immortality.
In canon it was Kirak Infil'a , Cere Junda, Obi-Wan and Lord Momin . All messed him up quite badly with Kirak winning round 1 but losing round 2 and Momin cutting off his arm. Obi-Wan actually beat Vader. In Legends it was Shaa Koon, An'ya Kuro, a clone of Maul and Galen Marek.
After Anakin calmed down he realised what he done, and that Palpatine tricked him by convincing him to look for answers in the dark side, but in the end he found the only person he had left in his life was Palpatine, and the only thing he had left to live for was satisfying his desire for power, which was best ...
It is widely speculated that Palpatine deliberately ensured the suit would be agonizing, keeping Vader angry, dependent, and subservient—turning pain into a tool of control.
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.
Though there was some debate among the fans that Anakin Skywalker's son, Luke Skywalker, was actually the Chosen One since he caused his father to destroy Darth Sidious, the debate was settled when George Lucas himself confirmed in an interview that Anakin, even after becoming Darth Vader, was still officially the ...

Likely unaware of his true nature, Snoke was an artificial genetic strandcast created on the planet Exegol by the resurgent Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious as a proxy and the product of cloning experiments.
Luke was the last Jedi, then. Rey is the last Jedi, now. The title of each film in the sequel trilogy is a direct reference to the main protagonist of the sequel trilogy, Rey. In the Force awakens, it awakens in her.
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.
In The Rise of Skywalker (2019), the final film in the sequel trilogy, a resurrected Palpatine is revealed to be the grandfather of Rey, a Jedi-in-training who is the protagonist of the sequel trilogy.
Luke's auditory hallucinations and grandiose beliefs that he is saving the galaxy might also point to diagnosis of “prodromal schizophrenia”, later confirmed by his full-blown visions of his deceased mentor Obi-Wan Kenobi, the authors suggest.
Anakin's intense jealousy was one key factor in his downfall. Anakin's fear of loss combined with his immaturity contributed to his transformation into Darth Vader.
Apparently, he had borderline personality disorder. As he came of age, Skywalker showed problems with impulsivity, violent outburst, illusions of invincibility and crises of identity, all of which are in line with borderline personality disorder diagnosis, the researchers concluded.
