OOC PERMISSIONS
▶ BACKTAGGING: Always ♥
▶ THREADHOPPING: Unless it's a private thread, have fun.
▶ FOURTHWALLING: I'm okay with him being recognized. He's Anakin Skywalker, hero of the Clone Wars; he's used to being recognized. I will ask, however, that you talk to me before bringing up any sensitive topics (such as Vader or the circumstances regarding his wife's death) that your characters may know of him.
▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: None at the moment.
IC PERMISSIONS
▶ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Not precisely affectionate in general, though that changes depending on how the cr develops. If your character wants to hug baby Vader, please. You will make my life.
▶ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Of course. Wanting to hit him is basically inevitable. This will necessitate plotting beforehand, though, since Jedi.
▶ RELATIONSHIPS: Happily married and expecting so, unless your name is Padmé Duty Amidala, you're shit out of luck.
▶ PHYSICAL INFORMATION: Anakin stands at 6'2" and weighs in at roughly 185 lbs. You're welcome. He has blond to brown hair and blue eyes. He has a thin scar, which extends from above his right eyebrow to his cheek, very close to his eye. Don't play with lightsabers, kids. Even more reason to beware lightsabers, his right arm from the elbow down is a cybernetic prosthetic. Anakin prefers to keep it hidden under a black glove. It's much stronger than a normal arm. Wouldn't recommend getting punched. Also, he was feeling 22. Because he's 22. Hey-o.
▶ PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: His reaction to deliberate probing by someone he doesn't trust will be negative in the extreme, but! I'm more than happy to plot things out. Anakin's mental space is usually very dark and very chaotic. The general impression should be not unlike that of a category 5 storm that might bear down at any moment. Let's talk.
▶ MAGICAL INFORMATION: He's a Jedi, yo. And because that's not special enough, he's the Chosen One meaning everything is turned up to eleven. More on the Force and all that entails below.
▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: In general, Anakin won't bring up anything about his past, which makes talking with him not unlike playing a game of Minesweeper. As a former slave, Anakin understandably has a very low opinion of slavers and slavery. Threatening innocents is a good way to put yourself on notice. Hating on the Jedi will get a lot of shade. Oh, and mention sand at your own peril.

THE FORCE
The Force is an energy field produced by all living things, which unites all living things. Beings sensitive to it can tap into its power via midichlorians, microscopic organisms that exist in the cells of every living being. The higher the midichlorian count, the more sensitive the being to the Force. Anakin, conceived by the Force, possesses a record high midichlorian count (>20,000 per cell; actual readings were off the chart), which gives him strong affinity for the Force.

There are many applications of the Force with some specific to either the dark side or the light. Below are the abilities Anakin has demonstrated in the movies and the Clone Wars TV series
Augmented athleticism: Anakin is able to augment natural muscle actions through the Force, allowing him to, for example, leap higher or sprint longer than normal.

Enhanced senses: Senses see a similar boost as voluntary muscle, in essence allowing him to perceive his environment, including the emotional states of other beings with him, as if it were an extension of him. This is also linked to mild precognitive abilities as when he uses this skill he receives warning of oncoming danger.

Telekinesis: Through the Force, one can manipulate the environment telekinetically from calling small objects toward oneself to raising ships ( though the level of focus required increases with weight and size of the object. ) Other applications of this skill include the Force push in which the user can send a pressurized blast at a target either to push it away or destroy it. The Force choke, compressing a target's airways through the Force, is also part of this. Anakin was employing the Force choke long before he ever went Vader on everyone.

Force visions: These are prophetic glimpses of events to come usually only accessible to those who delve deeply into the Force such as Grand Master Yoda. Anakin, however, is a rarity among the Jedi in that he is prone to receiving Force visions, typically as dreams in his sleep. They're about as fun as they sound.

Mind trick: Canonically stated to work only the weak-minded, it's a power of suggestion through the Force. Strong-minded individuals and certain species won't be affected.
While I will contact you when it comes to Anakin possibly using the Force on your character(s), he is almost always passively attuned to it ( see: chosen one, bring balance, conceived by the force, etc. ) I'd appreciate if you let me know what Anakin could glean off your characters ( if anything. )

In addition, his Force visions present another way to get characters to engage. Force visions function as a brief image of a scene completely lacking in context. If you're planning something for your character and would like a warning to come out beforehand, Anakin's your guy. Extent of his reaction will depend on cr. So for Padmé he completely freaked out, but if it was someone like Kylo Ren, he'd probably take the time to make enough popcorn for everyone.
