Some missing vader abilities

[DaFritzi]

I just found a list with abilities for vader on comicvine. This list contains some abilities the profile lacks entirely and some abilities canon vader should have, that are listed under EU vader only.

I don't know much about EU Vader and it has been some time since I last watched the movie, so I can't really confirm this. If someone knowledgeable about Star Wars would be interested in adding this abilities, the help would be appreciated.

This should be all the missing abilities (descriptions copied from the comicvine thread)

Force Stun: was a Force power that could temporarily deaden the senses and perceptions of a targeted enemy, preventing most movements (basic ability) (star wars the clone wars)

Force Cloak: this power allowed darth vader to became invisible (Star Wars: The New Droid Army) (star wars the force unleashed 2)

Beast Control : Beast Control was the Force ability to control an animal. Once calmed, the animal could be used by the Force user in various ways, including as a mount or guard beast.(basic ability).(star wars episode 2)

Levitation: Levitation was a Force power that allowed vader to suspend himselve against the force of gravity. Levitation required no direct physical contact. Using the Force, vader could then hover in place or move about wherever he desired.(basic ability).(star wars clone wars)

Force Kill: This power was used to telekinetically destroy the victims organs (taken from shadows of the empire novel)

Force Destruction: Usually fired through the arm or hand, it could blast a large radius vaporizing anyone who got too close to it. Even those who escaped direct contact with the blast would be pushed asunder by the power's backlash.(taken from Splinter of the Mind's Eye and star wars the force unleashed)

Force Repulse: Vader would concentrate in the Force and violently push it outwards, creating rapidly-expanding kinetic ripples in space, the objects caught in blast would be desintegrated and the most distant objects will be pushed violently (basic ability).(star wars the clone wars)

Force Crush: This deadly technique lifted the opponent into the air and, as they were floating their body would implode as it was crushed by the Force. (basic ability).(star wars the clone wars) (star wars episode 3)

This list also contains Force Lightning and states that Vader only decided to never use it due it being to risky.

Force lightning: vader was capable of creating this power however he rarely used it due to the risk of damage his life support sistem (basic dark side ability).(Splinter of the Mind's Eye)

I will ask The Everlasting and Soldier Blue about this.

Except for Beast Trick (also called Animal Bond) and Force Crush (has been seen in TCW and RoTS), all these abilities are Legends.

Anyway, so Vader should have:

Animal Manipulation - this is a basic ability taught to all Jedi Padawan learners. Masters like Shaak Ti could use to ridiculous degrees.

Levitation: Limited but he has it nonetheless.

Electromagnetic Manipulation since he has knowledge of Force Lightning and can use Kinetite. Refer the Shaak Ti profile I made for more info on Kinetite.

Pseudo-Invisibility (Force Cloak)

Sensory Manipulation (since Force Stun affects the nervous system directly)

 

[Soldier_Blue]

As for the rest, they are subsets of telekinesis and matter manipulation. They just need to be added to the "Notable Attacks/Techniques" section of Legends Vader.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay then. Do you wish to perform the changes?

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Yes but let's recap first:

To the Powers and Abilities section, we should add Animal Manipulation, Sensory Manipulation, Levitation.

Since the rest are subsets of TK and matter manipulation, they don't need to be added here.

Notable Attacks/Techniques (Disney):

Beast Trick (Animal Bond)

Force Crush

Notable Attacks/Techniques (Legends):

Beast Trick (Animal Bond)

Force Cloak

Levitation

Force Kill

Force Destruction

Force Repulse

Force Crush

To Categories, should add:

Animal Users, Electromagnetic Users, What else?

 

[Antvasima]

I think that should probably be enough.

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Oh sorry. Some work stuff came up and I had to go take care of it.

You can unlock the profile any time you feel like it. Then I'll do it.

 

[DaFritzi]

I have a question, wasn't "star wars the clone wars" declared part of the disney canon?

Also we would have to change his weaknesses section a bit. From "cannot use force lightning" to "does usually not want to use force lightning due to the risk of harming himself" (or somithing similar)

yeah the list also contains kinetite, Kinetite: ... (taken from Splinter of the Mind's Eye)

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. I will unlock Vader's profile. Tell me here when you are done.

 

[The_Everlasting]

I don't think Vader has Force Destruction, he has a similar ability called Kinetite.

The rest seem fine, though.
