8 More Star Wars Questions That Always Confused You

8. When Did Darth Vader Get A Servant?

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story might be the best self-contained Star Wars movie of all time. It was better than Solo, that much is certain.

As well as answering the major question of how the Rebel Alliance got hold of the Death Star plans, it also gave further insight into the life of the series' most popular baddie.

Darth Vader turns up a few times throughout Rogue One, voiced by a James Earl Jones who was then in his mid-80s. In one scene, we get a look at Vader's fortress on Mustafar - you know, the place where he was dismembered by his former master.

Weird choice for a home, but hey ho.

As well as seeing him taking a dip in his trusty bacta tank, we're also introduced to his servant. But wait a second - when did Darth Vader have someone on the payroll? Where did this guy come from?

According to the comic-book Shadow of Vader's Castle, this guy is called Vaneé, and he's a former Imperial Inspector. Vader broke his spirit by exposing him to the toxic lava fumes of Mustafar, which transformed Vaneé into the Sith Lord's devoted servant.

It's not a particularly pleasant answer, but it is an answer!
