Luke Skywalker could be another key character. Since he is Vader's son, his presence could add an interesting dynamic. He might be the one who somehow triggers the battle between Anakin and Vader, or he could be in a position to influence the outcome of their fight, perhaps by appealing to the remaining good in Anakin or by facing off against Vader himself in a three - way struggle.
It really depends on how you write it. If it's Anakin at his peak before turning to the dark side, he has a lot of raw power and potential. But Vader has years of experience as a Sith Lord. So, it could go either way.
One idea could be a what - if scenario where Anakin in his pre - Vader state somehow gets a glimpse of his future as Vader. He could then fight against the dark side within himself that would turn him into Vader. Another could be a time - travel plot where Vader is sent back to face Anakin, and Anakin has to decide whether to accept his possible future or fight against it.
A fan fiction could also explore a parallel universe where Anakin and Darth Vader are two separate entities that co - exist. They are forced to fight not because of Anakin's fall, but due to some external force that wants to see the two most powerful Sith - like beings battle it out. This could lead to an exploration of their different fighting styles and the power dynamics between them.
One idea could be a story that focuses on Anakin's internal struggle between his love for Padme and his fall to the dark side as Darth Vader, while Luke and Leia unknowingly grow up in the shadow of their father's actions. It could explore how their lives might have been different if Anakin had not turned, and how they eventually come to terms with his true identity.
In such a fanfiction, one possibility is that Anakin Skywalker might initially be in shock upon seeing Darth Vader. He could struggle to come to terms with what he has become. Maybe there would be a battle of wills as Anakin tries to fight against the dark side within Vader.
In such a fanfic, the Avengers' diverse powers would clash with Darth Vader's formidable Force abilities. Iron Man could use his high - tech suits to try and outmaneuver Vader's lightsaber attacks. Captain America might lead the charge with his shield against Vader's dark side - enhanced combat skills. It would be an epic battle of good from different universes against Vader's Sith - influenced evil.
Anakin Skywalker's character development is a long and complex journey in 'The Rise of Darth Vader: A Star Wars Story'. In the beginning, he was a young, talented Jedi with a big heart. But his pride also grew as his power increased. He didn't like being told what to do by the Jedi Council. His relationship with Padmé was against the Jedi Code, which added to his internal conflict. As the story progresses, he faced more challenges and temptations. His desperation to save Padmé from a supposed death made him trust Palpatine more. Palpatine exploited Anakin's weaknesses, his love, his pride, and his doubts about the Jedi. This continuous manipulation and Anakin's own internal battles led to his downfall and the rise of Darth Vader.
Well, obviously Anakin and Vader are the main characters. Anakin is his pre - Darth Vader self, full of potential and hope at one point, and Vader is the dark, powerful Sith Lord he becomes.
