In Star Wars fanfiction, obsession can lead to a character's downfall. Consider a character who is obsessed with immortality, a common theme in the Star Wars universe. They might make deals with dark forces or engage in unethical experiments, which not only corrupts them but also makes them enemies of those who uphold the light side. On the other hand, obsession can also fuel a character's growth. A young padawan obsessed with becoming a great Jedi might train harder and overcome many obstacles, but they also have to be careful not to let that obsession turn into a negative force.
