23 Dossier Anakin Skywalker
Jacob opened his eyes slowly, the interior of the log cabin once again greeting his eyes. There was still that gentle sound of waves crashing in the background.
'It looks like the settings from the last setting stay until the next'.
That was something for Jacob to think about as he moved slowly over to his chair and sat down. Comfort enveloped his body as he settled back in, before he turned to his tablet, powering it up. Before him sat the small list of options once more, but this time there was no need for an introduction, his hand immediately gravitated towards the [Review] tab.

Jacob had an early night last night in preparation of today's session, waking up early, he had made sure to give himself enough time to look at the dossier. He figured that 2 hours would be enough to do that as well as prepare some material to get through to the emotional and stuborn Jedi.
With his input a new screen appeared before him with only 1 name showing.
ANAKIN SKYWALKER
Finger hovering over the name for but a second, Jacob's eyes focused as he took in all the important details as he read the new screen.
Anakin Skywalker
Universe Designation: Star Wars Universe 923720
Jacob almost wanted to make a small sigh seeing the universe designation. He would easily admit to being a bit of a Star Wars fan, and as such he had seen how in recent years Star Wars had truly started to embrace a multiverse approach. Which wasn't always the case.
First it was all 1 universe.
Then there was the new canon and legends canon. But now, with the divide in the community over the sequel movies; plus, the introduction of time travel through the 'world between worlds', which was just universe breaking, there was already an infinite number of alternate timelines possibilities.
He was not a fan. (A/N: Yes, these are my personal feelings on the matter)
Jacob shook his head, he was dealing with the CONSOL app, which should have already clued him in that Star Wars was going to be set in an alternate universe. It wasn't like he would be messing with the canon or legends timeline with his therapy session.
'Though that does make me question what has changed from the canon or legends timeline for such a designation?'
Universe Overview: 'The date is 21 BBY, the galaxy is in a state of constant war and shifting plots, teetering on the brink of chaos. The manufactured war of Sheeve Palpatine between the Galactic Republic and the Separatists is in full swing."
'The Jedi, once peacekeepers of the republic have now become generals in their grand army, fighting for peace throughout the galaxy. But all this war is doing is dwindling their numbers, corrupting their staunch beliefs and slowly but surely turning the galactic populace against them.'
'Only just over a year and a half into the conflict and the Jedi's numbers have already taken a huge hit, with many knights, masters and even more padawans dying. It is destined that in only a few years the Jedi and the republic will fall into darkness, all pieces already in place, the darkness in the galaxy growing greater as more planets are drawn into conflict.'
'Many systems, planets, civilizations and people have suffered through this shadow war between the Sith and the Jedi, and so the cycle will continue if nothing is to change.'
Jacob couldn't see any big differences so far. Everything seemed to be on track, with the republic and separatists facing off, fighting over planets. As a fan he already knew the general gist of Palpatine's plan to whittle the jedi down and turn the public against them, so this information didn't give Jacob much to work with.
Because of that he quickly moved on to the next section.
Name: Anakin Skywalker
Age: 20
Sex: Male
Abilities:
Lightsaber Combat (Form V: Djem So)
Exceptional Pilot Skills
Exceptional Mechanical Aptitude
Strongest Connection to the Force
Force Telekinesis
Force Precognition
Numerous force abilities
Skilled Podracer
Designation: Jedi Knight
Once again for Jacob there wasn't much new information. Though he was surprised there wasn't more information about Anakin's abilities in the force, the fact that they focused on telekinesis and precognition but didn't mention his other bread and butter skills such as force jump, choke or push was interesting.
That would of course be covered under the numerous force abilities section, but it did leave less clutter for Jacob to go through. He himself couldn't teach Anakin to use those abilities better and it wouldn't affect his words in their coming session. However, Jacob could give him a few suggestions at the end of the session if all went well.
Current Appearance:
Getting to current appearance, Jacob wasn't surprised when he clicked on the tab and a hologram appeared before him. Much like Jean it was a bit of an experience seeing Anakin Skywalker for the first time.
Sure, there had been multiple live action movies with Hayden Christensen in the roll and depiction of Anakin in animated media, but their portrayals still felt different than the picture of the man before Jacob now.
Keeping an appearance that was strikingly similar to Hayden but different, the man before Jacob stood at a full height of 6.2 feet. His iconic clone wars armor draped his figure, his lightsaber resting at his hip arms crossed.
Though he may have looked like Hayden in broad strokes, the firm and steady jaw of a man that had seen war and lived through slavery really shone through. Though it was hard to tell in the movies, it was much easier for Jacob to spot the dark blond hair that Anakin had as he stood before him, not to mention the piercing steel blue eyes that starred into space.
It was easy to note why Anakin was called ruggedly handsome as all his features meshed to make someone who drew attention. Jacob was sure that if he gave a speech he could make it both inspiring or downright terrifying.
Starring at the person before him for another few minutes, Jacob finally looked down to the next option.
Current Situation+
Giving one last look at the hologram Jacob pressed down on the next tab, jumping slightly as an unexpected but familiar sound played. Before Jacobs eyes a new screen appeared, the iconic yellow scrolling text making its way down the screen. A man's voice reading out the information. A small nostalgic smile played on his lips as he watched on.
"In a galaxy marred by the chaos of war, three brave Jedi, Knight Anakin Skywalker, Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, and young Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, are locked in a relentless struggle to retake a separatist-controlled planet. The campaign has been a grueling test of their skills and resolve.
Amidst the unrelenting chaos of their latest battle, tragedy strikes. Anakin Skywalker, his thoughts momentarily distracted, is suddenly confronted by the nightmarish reality that his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, has been grievously injured shielding him from harm. A hasty retreat is called, and the weight of guilt and sorrow descends upon Anakin's shoulders. He questions himself, tormented by the knowledge that his momentary lapse has led to the injury of one he's sworn to protect.
As the heroes regroup in the aftermath of this heartbreaking loss, Anakin's inner turmoil threatens to consume him."
Jacob had to admit that the [Admin], must have had a sense of humor to include a clone wars intro for the situation, one that pulled a small smile from his lips, before that slowly disappeared. The information given in the introduction wasn't good.
He didn't have to be a genius to figure out that the cause of Anakin's distraction was from the CONSOL app. Either from a message in the group, or maybe something he had said when he first joined the group distracting him.
There weren't many, if any, situations that Jacob could think of when General Anakin Skywalker would be distracted during battle. 'That would also explain why he just recently booked a session.' With Ashoka injured from his distraction he had chosen to tackle the problem head on.
Jacob would expect nothing less from the 'Hero with no fear'. Of course, that might make Jacob's job much, much harder. If he was coming in with a volatile mindset, maybe even an antagonistic one after what happened he wouldn't be as receptive to any advice he could give.
Jacob let out a small sigh at the thought before moving onto the next section. This would give him some insight.
Current Mental State+
Anakin Skywalker is currently repressing major feelings of guilt, anger and self-loathing, caused by recent events. He is trying to bottle up his emotions so that his men and Obi-wan do not notice. This has left him irritable but focused.
He is anxious about Ashoka's recovery but is trying not to focus on it before his meeting with 'The Counselor'. Having not slept most of last night due to his heightened emotions, Anakin is dreading any information that he will find out in the coming few hours, a feeling in the force telling him this will change his life forever.
He does not want to currently face these feelings, but is forcing himself after the disaster that was his last battle.
Jacob rubbed his eyebrows for a moment as he thought about the new information.
'Yes, this will be a tough one. But probably not as bad as Jean. She was going through an identity crisis.'
Looking back at the [Review] before him, Jacob stopped as he noticed there was more information. More sections than the one Jean had. Jacob wasn't sure why this was the case, but quickly opened them up.
'How didn't I see that before?'
Background+
'Anakin Skywalker is a former slave from the desert planet Tatooine. He was discovered by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, when he was just a child. Anakin's extremely high midi-chlorian count and strong connection to the Force marked him as a potential Jedi. He was brought before the Jedi Council and, despite much debate, was trained as a Jedi. His training under Obi-Wan Kenobi continued, but it became clear that Anakin's path was marked by an intense and complex relationship with the Force.'
'During the Clone Wars, Anakin's journey as a Jedi Knight has been tumultuous. He gained a reputation for his exceptional piloting skills and serves as a general in the Grand Army of the Republic. He has been involved in numerous battles, often alongside his close friend and Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. His exceptional combat abilities and strategic thinking have made him a valuable asset to the Republic.'
Associations+
Anakin's closest relationships include:
Master Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin's mentor and a respected Jedi Knight.
Padmé Amidala: The former Queen of Naboo, now a senator and Anakin's secret love interest.
Ahsoka Tano: Anakin's Padawan and trusted ally.
Sheeve Palpatine: Father figure and confidant in the making.
Aayla Secura: Jedi Peer and a respected friend.
Notable Achievements+
He played a pivotal role in various battles against the Separatists, often turning the tide of battle in the Republic's favor.
His leadership and combat skills have earned him a reputation as one of the most skilled and fearless Jedi Knights on the front lines.
Anakin's internal struggles with the dark side of the Force have become more pronounced, as he walks a fine line between his duty as a Jedi and his emotions.
Most of the new information was stuff that Jacob already knew as a Star Wars fan. If there was anything different than he was expecting, it was actually Aayla Secura being listed as a close friend. Jacob wasn't 100% sure, but in most media, he had watched and read, though the two had met and co-operated together. They weren't close friends.
'Maybe this was the major difference in the universe?'
It was only a guess, but in a multiverse of infinite possibilities, only 1 small change could make the difference.
Jacob wasn't sure if that information would really come in handy during the session, but nevertheless his eyes tracked back to the timer at the top.
[1:38:19]
It had taken him a lot longer than expected to look through the dossier. Time just seemed to have flashed by. But now, now it was time for Jacob to really get stuck into it.
He wasn't sure which material he would be using for the next session, but he would have to look hard and get some convincing evidence to prove to Anakin, well.... all that he knew was about to happen.
Palpatine was already like a father figure to him, so Jacob knew it would be an uphill battle to convince him otherwise. It would take even more to convince him not to go all gung-ho about the matter and not make a war path towards the Sith after that fact.
Jacob was sure that wasn't the go in the situation, but Anakin was stubborn in all the worst ways sometimes.
He had a lot to prepare.
The session was about to start.
*********************************
Notes:
Well hope you guys liked the chapter.
I recently watched the Ashoka show and I will rate it 5/10. Don't have much reason or want to rewatch.
Main problems with it:
The introduction of new galaxies – everything was in 1 galaxy, with the unknown regions being you know, the outer galaxy and unknown. Now there are literal other galaxies which the night sisters just suddenly originated from. I mean... it just annoys me a little. There is still so much to explore in 1 galaxy (That isn't), that adding another just eh... wasn't a fan. (I don't know if there were other galaxies before this show, mentioned in canon or games. I can't remember. But this is my first introduction to it and I'm not a fan. Can't remember if the Yuuzhan Vong were from a different galaxy or just outside their own galaxy)
There is a lot of time wasted and assumptions with the audience – There is just a lot of filler in the show as well as a reliance that people have watched Star Wars the clone wars and Rebels. I didn't think about it much till someone pointed it out. But my parents also watched the show and I had to explain stuff to them. They could have also condensed like 8 episodes into at least 6 or even less in my opinion.
Sabine Wren – Look, I still don't see why they made her a jedi. She had a pre-established REALY GOOD character, heavily steeped in Mandalorian lore and stuff and then suddenly she a jedi. No reason in the plot of the show, other than 1 useful moment in the last episode (I won't spoil it), make it needed. The other reason is a forced tension between Ashoka and her, and the focus on master's and apprentices.
1. The tension between them didn't require her to be a jedi.
2. The master and apprentice stick, not needed at all.
(In the show they also say she is one of the worst force sensitives ever. Which once again begs the question why they took this established character and change them, when it doesn't impact the whole first season. I don't know, maybe if they get a second season it will become important.)
The star map plot hole, until it wasn't - The plot hole of why is the map to Thrawn in a hidden night sister base and leads to a different galaxy. Plus how did Morgan know it was there, and that Thrawn was in a different galaxy.
Now SPILERS ahead. So don't read this next bit if you haven't seen the show.
(OK, I hate how the show explains things. I had to make a lot of logical jumps to come to this conclusion, because they never outright say this is what happened. In episode 6 or 7, the night sisters that are with Thrawn mention they have been giving Morgan dreams and visions about where to find them.
The star map, isn't a map to Thrawn, it is just a Night Sister map pointing back to their old home planet, which was made when they left their old galaxy. The reason it is now useful is because Thrawn is at their home planet, which Morgan knows, through dreams.
They seriously needed to explain this better, because the way it is shown in the show, is just really damn confusing for people and creates a large plot hole. I'm not too sure many people even realize this is probably the explanation about the subject, as the map was always just called 'a map to Thrawn'.
All they needed was like 1 scene in the first 1-2 episodes with someone, anyone questioning her mental state and her knowledge coming from dreams to make it make sense. Or at least give us some logical jumping points or preparation for the idea in later episodes.)
Honestly other than that, and maybe a few small other things in the show, once again I reiterated, I give it a 5/10.
Anyways mini rant over. How did everyone like the show?
PS.
I'm not going to say this is the Dossier I will use for Rias later on guys, but I was half making these things with ChatGPT and just wanted to show you what it could put out for someone. I think it's pretty damn good.
