| abstract | - The renegade clone of Anakin Skywalker was a human male cloned by Starkiller from the genetic material of his former master, Darth Vader. Following Vader's death, Starkiller embarked on a quest to create a perfect, obedient duplicate of the man to take as an apprentice. Within the cloning facilities of Kamino, several failures were produced, one of these being the renegade clone. At first the clone showed much progress, but was soon shown to be a failure. The clone was born with much difficulty differentiating himself as Anakin Skywalker or Darth Vader. Starkiller still however saw that the clone showed much progress, but soon decided to have the clone killed after he failed to be able to kill a hologram of his dead wife, Padme Amidala. The clone would however escape the planet of Kamino in an attempt to find his wife, the clone dead Padme. However when the clone soon discovered that the original Anakin had in fact killed his wife, the clone was driven to a great fury of anger. Soon however, the clone was soon discovered by Rahm Kota, who was in fact on of the few survivors of Starkiller's attack on the Death Star. The two then made a deal, they would defeat Starkiller and capture Kamino, and use its resources to clone Padme. In return, the clone was to aid the Rebel Alliance in defeating the Empire. The pact was made and the two journeyed along with the Rebellion to Kamino. At first, the battle proved in favor to the Rebellion and Skywalker would duel Starkiller. Skywalker bested Starkiller in a lightsaber duel and raised his lightsaber with the intention of killing Starkiller. Before this could happen, however, a lightsaber blade suddenly appeared through Skywalker's chest. A hooded figure, having concealed himself to get near the clone, was revealed to be the wielder of the blade. The figure turned out to be a successful clone of Vader. Skywalker fell to his knees dead, and Kota soon fell dead as well. The tide then turned against the rebellion and they were ultimately defeated by the Empire.
