Personality:

At a glance, Anakin appears to be an individual who might come off shy when around others but he's merely someone who's quiet and reserved. The youngest child of the Solos is somewhat of an oddity as the rest of the family have no qualms about speaking out. He doesn't mind being alone or doing things by himself, or even not being more than a figure lingering in the background of louder voices. Anakin prefers listening to talking and could definitely be considered an introvert - sometimes seeking solitude to just get away from it all. While there are times when he won't go out of his way to make new friends, Anakin certainly doesn't turn away those who approach him first.

Up until he started attending the Jedi Praxeum, most of the people in Anakin's life had been adults, droids and his own siblings. Thus for the longest time, Jaina and Jacen were the only and bestest friends he had who were around his age. For the most part, he never felt much need to hold back with the twins and they were the two people who understood him best - even if they could never understand him fully. Even now that he's made other friends and the twins attend the Academy at different times, Anakin still considers them to be two of his best friends and looks up to them both immensely.

Whenever Anakin isn't talking, one can absolutely guess that he's spending time thinking instead. There is never a time when his mind isn't working over something, whether it be a problem that's currently in front of him or simply thoughts that loom from a distance. He even goes so far as to solve complex puzzles within his head even when he's simply bored or trying to keep patient. At this point in his life, he's more likely to keep a lot of his concerns and worries internalized rather than express them out loud. There are subjects Anakin can't talk about even with his family because he feels as if he might let them down in some way.

One of his major fears used to be the fact that he was named after his grandfather - Anakin Skywalker, who had fallen to the Dark Side of the Force. Young Anakin feared that perhaps he would end up walking in his grandfather's footsteps and he carried that around for a long time. Since his trip to Dagobah, he's since let go of that fear and realized that his past and future are his alone to make what he chooses it to be. Just being named after his grandfather does not mean he will end up walking the same path, that his choices would be what made him good or evil.

For someone his age, Anakin is a pretty polite child for the most part. He does his best to not be outright rude to others such as not interrupting others when they're talking or judging them on their appearances. Growing up with his mother and Threepio, he's been there to help entertain plenty of dignitaries from all over the galaxy and thus does his best to not insult others. On more than one occasion, Anakin has even gotten upset on behalf of his Jedi Master Ikrit who may not seem like much despite the older Jedi simply taking the insult in stride. Anakin has a long way to go in completely mastering his negative feelings but he is good at not acting on them most of the time.

Despite his reserved nature, Anakin is the son of both the Solo and the Skywalker lines - individuals who couldn't stay out of trouble if they tried. When he was younger, his siblings could talk him into doing something that was sure to get them scolded but Anakin was never the one who actually got in trouble for it. Even when he admitted to doing something bad, it seemed as though no one ever believed him except for his siblings. Even without his siblings' influence, Anakin found mischief and caused a ruckus on more than one occasion. There were even moments when Jacen and Jaina got annoyed with their kid brother because once an idea gets into his head, he just can't leave it alone. It was much worse when he was younger because Anakin would get so caught up in figuring out a machine that he didn't always consider what the consequences might be of making it work. After joining the Jedi Praxeum, Anakin found himself a new friend to get into trouble with - Tahiri. Their adventures often put their lives at risk but he knew it was for a good reason.

No matter how much trouble he gets into, Anakin has the same knack to get out of it if he applies a bit of intelligence and determination. Which Anakin has both in huge quantities. While he excells in dealing with machinery like his sister, uncle and grandfather there is more to it for him than just that. Anakin has a mind for puzzles in general, something that requires the use of his mind rather than relying on the Force. Some of his skills with machines does extend to how powerful he is in the Force and it comes so naturally to him that he was even correcting his sister before he even knew how to really utilize his connection the Force. He simply felt things through it, such as when a circuit-board was bad or that there was an extremely low-level power moving through something.

When faced with the Golden Sphere and ancient language, it wasn't entirely the Force that guided him through the puzzle - he also had to use his brain to decipher the message that was left. He had to use more than the Force to traipse through Tatooine's sandy desert with Tahiri. There are times when Anakin has to think around the problem and come at it from an angle most wouldn't think to take and he's pretty good at it. It can also typically happen in the blink of eye as he's staring danger in the face. While he has a lot of Force potential, Anakin does not yet have all of the knowledge to handle it and so he thinks of creative ways to make something possible - often combining what he does know how to do with someone else.

Anakin is the determined and stubborn sort, someone who gets an idea into his head and won't let it go until he sees it done. While he does typically try to not get anyone else hurt in the process he is willing to break rules or put himself in danger. Sometimes he does have the tendency to act without really thinking about the consequences that might occur but Anakin is at least aware of this fact. During the time when he was determine to fiddle around with a machine and nearly got his siblings killed, Anakin did admit that sometimes somebody gets hurt even though he hadn't planned on it. That said, he's also going to do whatever he can in order to fix whatever mistake he might have made. Hurting someone is something he regrets but there are just some things that are absolutely impossible for him to give up. Anakin is willing to accept the punishments, especially if what had done had actually saved someone.

Even though he's a quiet individual with mostly family as the people he really cares about, Anakin is actually extremely loyal. Not just to his family but to those who are his friends. While he may not have many friends, that only serves to make them that much more precious in his eyes. He would fight for them and face down krayt dragons with them or even die if that's what it took. Self-sacrificing is not exactly high on his list of solutions in most situations but if he can spare a friend or family member a deadly wound by taking a non-fatal one, then Anakin absolutely will. At this point, he even sees R2-D2 as a friend rather than a keeper that he first saw the droid as. Still, there is basically nothing that he wouldn't do for someone he cared about and Anakin would not hesitate to put aside his own fears and worries to help them in their time of need.

At the end of it all Anakin is still just a kid who's figuring out all of the different sides of himself. He spent so much time within the shelter of his family that there's much about himself that he has yet to discover. Anakin is fairly certain where and how he fits in within his family unit but is finding out who is as an individual. Even though he went to the Jedi Temple to study under his uncle's watchful eye he is breaking off on his own - making friends and discovering how he fits into a galaxy that's constantly changing around him. His potential to change is great.

Appearance: Anakin has dark brown hair with ice blue eyes with light colored skin. He is also a human - something that's actually fairly important in the Star Wars universe considering how many species there are. Currently he is eleven years old and stands at 150 centimeters tall, so about 4'9. He has old scarring from where a Krayt dragon racked its claws across his side - five slashes across the side of his ribcage.

Abilities:

Force: Anakin has a powerful connection to the Force and while he hasn't yet learned to utilize it to its fullest, it's been said that he has great potential. Some aspects of it come easier to him than others do at his age and he spends a great deal of time training to enhance them all. Most note that he has sheer raw power with the Force and simply needs the opportunity to develop that to its fullest.

Sense: He can sense the feelings of others around him, particularly those Anakin is closest to (either emotionally or physically). Picking up on stronger, more currently present emotions is more of a natural ability but is something he still has to focus on getting deeper ones. He can, to a very small degree, share his own emotions with others - projecting a sense of calm, excitement or even nervousness but this is done on more of a subconscious level. Not only can he sense other people through the Force but also all living beings and even able to sense danger.

He goes beyond being able to sense living beings but can sense mechanical objects such as ships, droids or even lightsabers. Anakin is one of those few who can understand machines in a way that other people can't. He can sense when a machine is built well or if it has faulty parts, even burned/melted wires even without any sort of training. As a child, he helped his sister build a droid or was even able to use a machine no one really understood. Anakin can also sense power going to and from a machine, follow it even though it's buried beneath layers of ground. He may not always understand what a machine is supposed to do (especially one that hasn't been seen in decades) but yet he has the innate ability to make it work.

Push/Pull: Like most Jedi, he can lift or move things without actually touching them. Anakin is still in the process of learning this and can only currently move small or light objects by himself. One thing of note is that when working together with Tahiri, he has been able to make heavy items light while she then lifts it. The more he practices, the more capable Anakin becomes on being able to move larger and heavier objects. He was even able to cushion his own fall by slowing his descent by using the Force. However, he can manipulate formless things such as mist to form a variety of complicated shapes. There was a time when Anakin used this ability to stop the heart of a large, vicious creature until it was dead.

Precognition: This is not exactly something Anakin has a great deal of control over as his precognition takes the forms of coming to him in dreams. Precog-dreams can show him plenty of future events but that doesn't necessarily mean it will come true.

Mind Trick: He has very basic control over this particular ability, able to give someone a simple verbal command in order to make them do something. (NOTE: I will not use this without mun permission.)

Memory Recall: One thing that comes extremely easy to Anakin is the ability to recall any and every moment he so wishes to. It doesn't matter if he only saw something for a brief moment, he could write down a set of complicated numbers or symbols with perfection.

Manipulation: Not just once but twice, Anakin has shown the capability of being able to manipulate various sorts of energy. Such as being able to move between a force field after having weakened, then stretching it - taking his siblings along with him. At the age of seven, Anakin couldn't quite express what he did but said it tickled while his siblings felt a shock. He did it again later when faced with a strange Golden Globe with the help of his friend, bringing a group of lost souls out. Another sort of manipulation he's been shown doing is making broken machines almost whole again. He's unmelted wires that were in a sealed part simply by touching it - though it wasn't perfect and the droid Anakin put it in ended up catching fire anyway.

ETC. As Anakin's training with using the Force is still in progress, there are many aspects of it that he will get better at doing and others he has yet to learn. Given time he will become stronger in all of the ways listed above and then some. By the time of his death at 16, Anakin rediscovers Battle Meditation, learns Force Meld and discovers a way to sense the Yuuzhan Vong through the Force.

Machines: Even without his connection to the Force, Anakin is quite skilled with technology. His siblings often encouraged him to help them build a variety of machines over the years and he was more than happy to go along with them. He's built his own hologram that displayed a variety of pictures of his family.

Lightsaber: Technically, Anakin doesn't have a lightsaber of his own and had never used one before attending the Jedi Academy. He has only ever used a Jedi weapon once in his entire life but he displayed great skill with it even though it was just for a brief moment. Anakin used it not to kill but to disarm a bigger opponent without actually hurting him.

Puzzles: He has the sort of mind who not only can solve complex puzzles but enjoys it and often does it in his head. Anakin can use these as a way to keep patient or merely prevent himself from being bored.

Pilot: Thanks to his connection to the Force and some good Solo-Skywalker genes, Anakin is a natural pilot... or would be if anyone would allow him to pilot anything by himself. Eventually he does grow up to become an exceptional pilot using his extraordinary senses to be agile and adaptable.

Physical: Eventually wielding a lightsaber does require Anakin to have a set of physical skills to help him fight and he's been shown to use a variety of weapons from throwing rocks to spears and other items to defend himself. As a student he is still building this skill so sometimes he ends up hurt when in actual danger.


Suitability: Anakin would adjust to life in Aifaran fairly well having already experienced living in several different places already. He would be interested in not only continuing his Jedi training but also the new ability granted to him, while learning about the new world he's living in. He would also be curious about the technology available and would jump right into learning about it, even tinkering or building things.

Even though he's a quiet kid, he is also a child of both the Solo and Skywalker families so there's bound to be trouble Anakin ends up in - whether on accident or purpose.
