Darth Vader smiled after Obi-Wan's final defeat in Obi-Wan Kenobi because he felt vindicated, having proven he was stronger than his former master and finally achieving closure by "killing" Anakin Skywalker, which was a triumph of his dark side identity and fulfilled his purpose as Vader, even though it left him perplexed by Obi-Wan's ultimate fate as a Force ghost. His smile reflected a mix of sadistic satisfaction, pride in his power, and the completion of his personal quest to surpass Obi-Wan, even as the mystery of the Force ghost hinted at greater complexities.
The Vader side of him is proud. He is telling Obi-Wan that “he didn't have the power to kill him. He killed Anakin before Obi-Wan had a chance.” Vader won. You can see his pride in his small smile and his eyes when he speaks these words.
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.
In a study published in the journal Psychiatry Research, French psychologists and psychiatrists determined that Darth Vader had six of the nine criteria used for a BPD diagnosis, as defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM): Impulsivity.

Most of it is centered around Anakin Skywalker, whom conventional wisdom would suggest is Star Wars' most tragic character. Anakin brings all that bad juju on himself though, so it's hard to feel overly bad for him. He chooses his bed and he gets to writhe in it, limbless and burnt, like an overcooked hot dog.
Anakin Skywalker, one of the main characters in the "Star Wars" films, meets the criteria for borderline personality disorder (BPD).
Qimir has already been calling himself Darth Venamis, and is ready to officially be a Sith Lord Apprentice, but, is also already conspiring to get a pupil of his own, & eventually kill his own master as well.
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.
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.

The two embraced and shared a kiss as Solo peacefully vanished in Rey's arms. Although Solo was the last of the Skywalker bloodline, Rey assumed the name "Skywalker" to honor their memory and in recognition of her chosen family. Sometime later, the now self-proclaimed Rey Skywalker became a Jedi Master.
It's pretty clear that operation necromancer is the effort to bring back Emperor Palpatine and Snoke is a step in that effort who served as an intermediate vessel to host his spirit until the Palpatine clone was ready. It's the project to clone palpatine in to a new body after his death in VI.
