What If Anakin Skywalker Led the Rebellion?02 Oct 202600:16:10

Palpatine grits his teeth as he defends against Mace Windu’s attack. The Jedi Master rushes at him, his purple lightsaber shining in the darkened room and flashing like lightning.

Though Palpatine managed to defeat the rest of the Jedi strike team, Mace was more of a challenge. When his counterattack is easily pushed back, he considers the possibility he might be defeated.

What If Anakin Could See and Hear ALL Force Ghosts01 Oct 202600:30:14

Anakin sits alone in Naboo as he watches the final embers that were once Qui-Gon Jin die out. He still can’t believe his master is gone. It seems like just yesterday when he met the Jedi Master, yet he made such a great impact on the boy that he cannot shake him from his memories.

Obi-Wan approaches him and places a hand on his shoulder, offering whatever comfort he can, though Anakin remains inconsolable. He wanders off to bed, closing his eyes as he soon drifts off to sleep.

What If Anakin Trusted Obi-Wan in Revenge of the Sith?30 Sep 202600:30:34

The Coruscant skyline stretches endlessly beyond the Temple's meditation chambers. Several days have passed since the rescue of Chancellor Palpatine, since Count Dooku's death aboard the Invisible Hand, but Anakin Skywalker finds no peace in their victory.
He sits cross-legged on the cold stone floor, his breathing unsteady, sweat beading on his forehead despite the chamber's cool air. The nightmare had been worse this time. More vivid. More real. Padmé's face, twisted in agony.

What if Qui-Gon Stopped Anakin From Killing The Tusken Raiders28 Sep 202600:29:29

Anakin slowly rises to his feet and reaches for his lightsaber. The whole world falls silent in his eyes, everything except the alien shouts from outside. The Tusken Raiders. The monsters are responsible for this.

He ignites his lightsaber and prepares to make his way out. Each step has its vision turning red. The training he had learned as a Jedi was forgotten. The lessons of Obi-Wan and the Jedi Order are all tossed aside.

The only thing on his mind is rage.

What if Yoda Took Anakin to Kashyyyk in Revenge of The Sith27 Sep 202600:27:00

Yoda ponders this predicament. Of the Outer Rim Sieges, Kashyyyk remains one of the most ferocious. Holding the planet has become a priority for the Republic

He’s about to agree, but his eyes fall upon young Skywalker and he feels a tingle in his neck. It’s as if the Force is trying to get his attention and point him toward the young Jedi.

After his brief encounter with Qui-Gon-Jin, he has opened himself up to the Living Force again and can feel its power running through him.

What if The Covenant from Halo Invaded The Star Wars Galaxy26 Sep 202600:26:41

Prophet of Truth: Your destruction is the will of the gods and we shall be their
instrument.

That message plays nonstop as the Home One survey the ruins of the Imperial Fleet. This was just one of many recent encounters across Wild Space since the arrival of the mysterious alien empire. They soon began attacking rebels as well.

They weren’t satisfied with just wiping out military targets, the Covenant had also rained destruction down on entire worlds as well, turning them to glass.

What if Anakin Exposed Mace Windu’s Attachment to The Republic25 Sep 202600:47:41

The Jedi Council chamber sits in heavy silence as holographic reports flicker across the central display. Three years of relentless warfare have transformed the circular room from a place of contemplative wisdom into a military command center. Strategic charts cover ancient meditation alcoves, while communication arrays buzz with constant updates from battlefronts across the galaxy.

What If The Force Revived Obi-Wan and Sent Him Back to Episode I24 Sep 202600:26:02

Maul prepares to mount his speeder and prepares to take off to confront the Jedi as his probe droid reports finding them. But as he begins to activate it, the droid begins to jerk in the air before flying straight towards the speeder and shattering against its chassis.

Cursing, the Sith warrior turns to the cause of that commotion and finds a hooded figure. He does not appear to be one of the Jedi who had accompanied the Naboo delegation.

What If Anakin, Ahsoka and Obi Wan Left The Jedi Order TOGETHER23 Sep 202600:32:06

Anakin listens as Bariss confesses her crimes and frowns. It should be a moment of vindication but all he can feel is disgust at the Jedi Order’s actions. When he can’t look at Bariss any longer, he turns to Obi-Wan whose expression mirrors his.

When the Jedi Council apologizes to Ahsoka and offers her position back, she refuses and Anakin can’t blame her. He follows after her and the two make their way down the temple steps together.

However, as they prepare to leave a voice calls out to them.

What If Anakin Mastered Makashi After Losing His Arm to Dooku22 Sep 202600:25:18

The medical equipment hums softly as Anakin lies in his bed. Though the medical droids say he’s stable and expected to pull through, what does that mean? It won’t bring his arm back.

His thoughts race back to the duel on Geonosis. Count Dooku’s blade flashed like a streak of lightning. Even though he was almost three times Anakin’s age, Count Dooku moved like a man in his twenties.

Anakin fought with all his strength, skill, and every ounce of raw power he could summon, but none was enough.

What if The Force Revived Anakin AND Obi-Wan And Sent Them To Episode 1?21 Sep 202600:26:29

Anakin blinks and feels himself rising with a start as he hears the doors of Watto’s junk shop open and a group of figures step inside. Watto has him working in the storeroom, gathering spare parts for their latest project. Meanwhile, the Toydarian’s raspy voice is arguing with another figure.

In response, a familiar voice causes Anakin to stand up and approach the main area. There, he finds Qui-Gon Jin speaking calmly to try to placate Anakin’s angry master.

What if Count Dooku Led the Separatists as a Jedi?20 Sep 202600:51:57

Dooku relentlessly paces back and forth as he swears under his breath. In a mere week, he had an encounter with a sith lord named Darth Sidious, one who turned out to be none other than the new Chancellor of the Republic. Though the Jedi Master had refused Sidious’s temptation, Dooku’s warnings fell on deaf ears, unfounded accusations from the result of grieving the loss of Qui-Gon.

Dooku: Fools, the lot of them. Too blind to see what is right under their nose.

What if The Father Sent Anakin, Obi-Wan, & Ahsoka to The Battle of Endor19 Sep 202600:30:00

The Father: If you will not stay to take my place, you must see what you become.

Anakin: See what I become? What are you talking about?
Before Anakin can demand answers, the Father raises his hand. Reality fractures around them. Obi-Wan and Ahsoka cry out as brilliant light consumes everything. The three Jedi feel themselves pulled through something beyond hyperspace, beyond the Force itself. Time and space twist around them like a whirlpool.
Then impact. Soft ground.

What if The Jedi Council Cared About Anakin's Mental Health18 Sep 202600:28:26

The Council Chamber is quiet.
Sunlight filters through the tall windows of Coruscant, casting golden halos on twelve seats that have judged the galaxy for centuries. But today, for the first time, they hesitate.
Anakin Skywalker stands at the center, nineteen, restless, brilliant, and burning from the inside out. His emotions pulse through the Force like waves in a storm. Normally, that would earn him a lecture. Today, it earns him silence.
Mace Windu studies him, not as a soldier, but as a soul.

What if Qui Gon Trained Anakin Skywalker17 Sep 202600:43:58

The green blade clashes against red. Sparks fly. Maul twists, aiming a killing stroke toward Qui-Gon’s chest—but the Jedi pivots just in time, parries, then slams his hilt into Maul’s chin. Maul staggers. Qui-Gon surges forward, driving his blade through Maul’s midsection. The Sith's eyes widen in shock. His saber flickers and dies. A low growl escapes his lips as his lifeless form tumbles into the reactor shaft. Silence falls. Obi-Wan leaps through the last energy barrier as it shuts down.

What if Ahsoka Faced Anakin on Mustafar, NOT Obi Wan16 Sep 202600:14:18

Anakin can hardly believe his eyes as he watches his Padawan descend the ship's boarding ramp. For a moment, he forgets his anger towards the Jedi and himself, simply overjoyed to see that she's ok.

But Ahsoka doesn't share these feelings and the joy in Anakin quickly disappears when he sees Ahsoka's drawn lightsabers and grim expression. Behind her is Captain Rex whose hands rest on his blasters.

Ahsoka: I've heard about the Jedi Temple. Tell me, is it true?

What if The Jedi Had Visions of Anakin Burning on Mustafar15 Sep 202600:27:40

The mood in the Jedi Council Chambers is tense as they gather for group meditation. Although the fires of the recent Battle of Coruscant have faded into the background, they still raise some uncomfortable questions about the war and what shall come after. They saw how close the Republic came to destruction, which cannot be easily ignored.

This raises some issues about the future regarding the Clone Wars and beyond. To that end, they gather in the council chambers to determine just that.

What if Anakin Skywalker EMBRACED Being The Chosen One14 Sep 202600:26:29

As the last residue of Qui-Gon’s ashes is swept away in the Coruscant air, the small but unusual ceremony comes to an end. Normally, Jedi have their remains interred in the Temple, but Qui-Gon had insisted on such a burial for himself. He claimed he wished to become one with the Living Force, and this was the best way to fulfill that desire.

When the last words are spoken, the ceremony comes to an end, and the crowd begins to disperse. For Anakin, it is not a moment too soon.

What if The Father From Mortis SAVED Anakin on Mustafar13 Sep 202600:25:51

Anakin closes his eyes and screams as the fires consume his body. He writhes around on the stony shore, feeling his body burn as the lava spreads across his body. Although only a few seconds pass, it feels like an eternity.

But as the pain looks ready to consume him, a blinding light shines through the air, leaving Anakin wincing and covering his eyes. The light is painful, but in a different way.

What if Revan SAVED Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace12 Sep 202600:28:21

The Theed Royal Palace hums with the clash of lightsabers, the air thick with tension as the Jedi and Sith circle each other for the first time in centuries. And then, the Sith strike.
Darth Maul rushes forward, his lightsaber blur of speed and precision, driving Qui-Gon Jinn back toward the plasma gates. He is unused to fighting against a double-bladed saber. The movements are twice as fast and come from the most unusual angles, leaving him unable to halt their attacks as effectively.

What if Mace Windu Freed Anakin's Mother11 Sep 202600:39:09

The nightmares begin three months after Naboo. Young Anakin Skywalker tosses in his narrow Temple bed, tears streaming down his face as he calls for his mother. The same dream every night: Shmi's voice growing fainter across an endless desert, her outstretched hand disappearing into sand and shadow. In the Council chambers, Obi-Wan presents his concerns with careful neutrality.
Obi-Wan (measured): "The boy's connection to his mother remains... intense. His training suffers. His focus wavers.

What if Anakin Learned VAAPAD During The Clone Wars10 Sep 202600:21:47

Mace Windu looks up in surprise as Anakin enters his chambers. His eyes trail downward to Anakin’s new robotic arm and offers a sympathetic nod.

Mace: What brings you here, Skywalker?

Anakin: A request, master. I understand that your fighting style is designed to counteract the Dark Side.

Mace: In a manner of speaking, yes. Why do you ask?

Anakin: I want to learn it.

Mace: No. Vaapad is not a toy, Skywalker. It is too risky to teach, especially to one who hasn’t even passed the Jedi Trials.

What if Anakin Skywalker Refused To Duel Obi-Wan on Mustafar09 Sep 202600:40:36

The heat from Mustafar's volcanic surface shimmers in waves across the landing platform. Anakin Skywalker stands motionless, his yellow-tinged eyes fixed on the figure descending the ship's ramp. Obi-Wan Kenobi. His former master. His brother.
It was already a shock to see Padmé, her face twisted in betrayal and horror when she realized what he'd become.

Aunt Beru falls to the ground and urges Luke to escape. He manages to slip out of the house and begins running. When he glances back, he sees a figure in all black chasing after him, carrying a blood-red lightsaber.

Suddenly, his foot slips on a rock and he tumbles. Reva smiles as she catches up to the boy. But as she approaches, a shadow forms between them as a second figure appears.

Revan: Not a step further.

Reva: Who are you?

Revan: A bringer of death or a savior of life.

What If Anakin Convinced The Jedi Council NOT to Dismiss Ahsoka07 Sep 202600:25:17

Anakin can hardly contain his disgust at what he sees in the Jedi Council. Obi-Wan can sense the anger and sighs.

Obi-Wan: The Republic government has been pressuring us to take harsh action to resolve this issue. They believe that if we do not comply with their demands, then we may be compromised.

Anakin: So that’s what this is then? Appeasement? Giving them their pound of flesh? This council should be ashamed of itself!

Palpatine: Anakin, please. I know how much you love her, let me help you save her.

Anakin: And how is it you know about the two of us?

For once, Palpatine does not have an answer. He freezes up and looks at him. He didn’t expect the young Jed to catch on to that. Instead, he tries to quickly think of an excuse, but it is too late.

Anakin suddenly springs forward and sweeps his lightsaber at him. The chancellor’s eyes widen as he steps back, igniting his own weapon.

What if Obi Wan Was on Coruscant When Palpatine Tried to Turn Anakin05 Sep 202600:25:04

Obi-Wan stands atop one of the upper levels of the Utapau city, watching as his forces are slowly deployed into the sinkhole below. They have a good idea where Grievous is and now it is only a matter of tracking him down and destroying him once and for all.

His men are making good progress in their deployment and they should be ready to strike soon. But he finds his mind drifting off elsewhere as he thinks of his recent conversations with the Jedi Council and Anakin.

What If the Jedi Council Helped Anakin Heal After Losing His Mom04 Sep 202600:25:45

Anakin marches through the Jedi Temple, looking like a warrior marching into battle. These last few days have been a whirlwind of emotion, even with the outbreak of war, that has been the least of his concerns. In a matter of weeks, he finally married the woman he loved, lost his arm, and fought in his first battle. But the pain and joy he suffered from these events are nothing compared to the sting of losing his mother.

Her death has rocked Anakin’s world and left his head spinning.

The Jedi Council chamber feels heavy with tension. Holographic displays show intelligence reports from across the galaxy...Grievous sightings, Separatist movements, Republic losses mounting daily. Master Windu stands at the center, his dark face set in familiar stern lines.
Windu (decisive): "The reports are confirmed. General Grievous has established a base on Utapau.

Fives: "You need to hear this before they come. I don’t have time. None of us do."
Fives: "There’s a plot, bigger than anything you’ve seen. It’s not just about Tup, or me. It’s about all of us. Every clone."
Anakin: "What kind of plot?"
Fives: "A conspiracy… to destroy the Jedi. The whole Republic.

What if Order 66 Failed in Revenge of the Sith01 Sep 202600:35:16

War gripped Coruscant. Above the city, Republic forces clashed with Separatist armadas as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker flew headlong into the chaos. Their mission: rescue Chancellor Palpatine, held aboard General Grievous’s flagship.
They boarded the Invisible Hand, fought through waves of droids, and reached the Chancellor—chained between Count Dooku and two MagnaGuards. Obi-Wan fell early in the duel. Anakin faced Dooku alone.
Obi‑Wan lies unconscious at the edge of the chamber.

What If Anakin Had Nightmares of Palpatine Murdering the Jedi Council31 Aug 202600:26:49

Anakin sighs as he prepares for bed yet again, though he takes no joy in it. When Padme notices his hesitation, he tries to brush it off but in truth, he is exhausted. Yet for the past few days, all he has received when he goes to bed are nightmares. The same nightmares of his wife in her hospital bed, struggling to fight through the pain of birth but failing to do so. Instead, she loses herself and passes away from the effort.

What if Anakin Could See Past Jedi Masters like Aang in Avatar30 Aug 202600:28:18

Anakin watches Ahsoka depart the Jedi Temple for the last time, his heart sinking as she disappears from view. Although Ahsoka made it sound like he should have been proud, all he can feel is sadness and disappointment. Part of him knows that it is the Jedi Council’s fault, but another feels more like his failure to defend her.

All these thoughts run through his mind as he heads back to his quarters and lies there alone. The longer he remains, the more questions arise. What will he do now?

What if Anakin Told The Jedi Council About Darth Plagueis29 Aug 202600:24:34

As the opera comes to an end, Anakin stares up at Palpatine, who casually claps his hands and smiles at him. The chancellor looks as though nothing is wrong. As if he had not just dropped a bombshell. But efforts to gauge his reaction are in vain as the chancellor suddenly announces that he is tired.

He prepares to depart as his speeder is brought up to the front, and Palpatine steps aboard. But before he disappears, he glances back at Anakin and smiles.

What If Anakin Saved Obi-Wan and Satine on Mandalore?28 Aug 202600:28:35

Obi-Wan.

That name rings around in Anakin’s head as he closes his eyes and concentrates. He tries to clear his mind and reaches into the Force, trying to search for him. It had been days since Obi-Wan had borrowed Anakin’s ship to try and free Satine on Mandalore. Far too long. He should have gotten back by now or at least reported in. Yet there was nothing, and Anakin was growing worried.

What if Anakin Became a Master and Had Visions of Order 6627 Aug 202600:25:52

As Anakin returns to the darkened surface of Umbara, he surveys the sight left for him since his return to Coruscant. Though it should be celebratory as he heard the news that the 501st managed to capture the nearby airbase and help secure the capital, no one feels particularly victorious.

Anakin: I’m glad to see you, Rex. You too Fives.

Rex: Thank you, general. It’s just a shame that a lot of the boys aren’t here with us.

Anakin: I know…what happened here? How could the Umbarans do this?

What If Anakin Was Made GRAND MASTER in Revenge of the Sith26 Aug 202600:25:15

Yoda closes his eyes and ponders the implications of the recent battle of Coruscant. From an attack on the Jedi Temple to more and more Jedi turning to the dark side, more problems are arising even as the Clone Wars draws to an end. And though he does not wish to admit it, the worst of these problems is as clear as day. People simply no longer respect the Jedi. His recent journey with Qui-Gon has only left him further questioning what should happen.

What if Revan Was Reborn With All His Memories as Anakin Skywalker25 Aug 202600:28:16

For as old as Anakin can remember, he’s had visions of the past. Not his past, but a time long before he was born, before anyone alive was born. A time when the Old Republic still thrived up until its last days during the Great Sith War.

At first, he thought these were just that, visions. Dreams conjured up by his imagination. But as he grows older, he realizes these are further from the truth. These are memories of his past when he was a different man.

What if Luke Skywalker (EU) Time Traveled Back to The Phantom Menace24 Aug 202600:24:29

The Force screams.

Luke meditates in his academy on Yavin 4, deep in communion with the cosmic Force, examining an ancient Sith artifact. Reality fractures. Colors that shouldn't exist burn across his vision. Time becomes liquid. When the universe stabilizes, he stands in the dusty streets of Mos Espa.

The Force feels different here. Younger. Less scarred. His danger sense explodes as a podracer engine roars past his head. He ducks. The crowd cheers. The Boonta Eve Classic rages around him.

What If Ahsoka Saved Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar23 Aug 202600:19:07

Although Padme was the most important woman in Anakin's life, Ahsoka was a close second. In the few years, she served as his padawan, Ahsoka had a huge impact on her master. Teaching her helped instill a sense of responsibility in Anakin and gave him a person he could relate to about his struggles. So if there was anyone who could have helped him escape the clutches of Palpatine, it was her.

What if Anakin Accepted The Father's Power After His Death22 Aug 202600:23:08

The Father's body begins to dissolve into pure light, his essence scattering across the realm between worlds. Anakin feels it—the pull, the weight, the sheer magnitude of what's being released. This is not like touching the Force. This is the Force itself, raw and infinite, seeking a vessel.

He reaches out instinctively. Not with his hand, but with every fiber of his being.

The power slams into him like a tidal wave. His vision whites out. Every nerve in his body ignites.

What if Revan Awakened During The Clone Wars21 Aug 202600:27:24

Obi-Wan, Anakin, and the Jedi Council all leap to their feet, reaching for their lightsabers as the door slides open. The figure who enters is garbed in Jedi robes, though it's coupled with a blood-red Mandalorian helmet.

Behind him is a large droid with two blasters pointed at the Temple Guards trailing them. The Jedi bows respectfully towards them.

HK-47: Warning: Don’t do anything stupid.

Revan: Greetings, masters. I’m here to offer my services to you.

What if the Jedi Council Insisted Anakin Join Them to Face Palpatine20 Aug 202600:27:22

Anakin ran through the Jedi Temple, searching for Mace Windu who was surprised to see the young Jedi running towards him.

Mace: Skywalker, what is the meaning of this?

Anakin: Breathlessly. The Sith Lord, I found him. It’s Chancellor Palpatine.

Mace: The chancellor. You are making a bold accusation. Are you certain?

Anakin: Y-yes. I am.

What if the Jedi Anticipated and SURVIVED Order 6619 Aug 202600:33:23

After their mission to Oba Diah, Anakin and Obi-Wan return to the Jedi Temple with troubling news. The Darth Tyrannus who commissioned the clone army is Count Dooku.

Anakin: That doesn't make sense, the clones have been nothing but loyal and they've never helped the CIS.

Obi-Wan: We must consider the possibility this happened before Dooku fully embraced the Dark Side.

Yoda: Possible, but great is the risk of not considering the threat. Compromised, the entire clone army might be.

What if Anakin Skywalker Restored the Je’daii Order18 Aug 202600:30:11

Anakin sits alone in his quarters, trying to meditate. Though his breathing is steady, he cannot find peace here. Instead, he fidgets in his seat and remains restless.

He has been training in the Jedi Order for almost a decade now. While he learned much in his time here, the Order is starting to feel more like a hindrance instead of an asset. All the rules they give him appear as a mix of contradictions and questions instead of answers.

What if Obi-Wan SAVED Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar17 Aug 202600:33:44

Obi-Wan looks to Anakin, unable to comprehend the person he’s become. Even after losing his limbs and grasping the coarse rocks of Mustafar with his robotic hand , his rage is still burning within him. The thoughts begin toiling in Obi-WAN’s mind. Where did I go wrong? How did it come to this?

He remembers first seeing Anakin as a young boy on Tatooine. Raising the boy as if he was his own, teaching him not only about the force , being a Jedi, and skills with a saber , but life as a whole. No….

What If Anakin Was Made A Jedi MASTER in Revenge Of The Sith16 Aug 202600:28:12

Yoda: Allow this appointment lightly, the Council does not. Disturbing is this move by Chancellor Palpatine.

Anakin: I understand.

Mace: You are on this council, and after careful deliberation, we have agreed to make you a Jedi Master.

Anakin looks up in surprise at the gathered Jedi. He knew this was a bold move for the chancellor and expected more resistance from the council. However, he glances over at Obi-Wan who gives him a faint smile.

What if Anakin Skywalker Was a Genius15 Aug 202600:26:04

Anakin watches the people of Kiros being returned to their home planet. He and Ahsoka are among the many who volunteered to help resettle them there. While he is happy to see them safe, he still feels a twinge of anger at the Republic as the motion to provide relief aid to them was postponed once again.

It got so bad, it required several Jedi and clones to volunteer. This is just one of the many issues that he’s found with the Republic recently.

What If The Jedi Council Had Visions of Darth Vader14 Aug 202601:10:13

The air tastes of rust and swamp water.
Yoda walks, his feet not so much touching the earth as gliding just above it. Trees stretch into the sky like arms reaching for forgiveness. The world is damp, quiet — but not peaceful. It is a silence waiting to scream.
A path curls through the mist. Gnarled roots twist underfoot, then harden — metal, not bark. The forest fades. Before him now stands a single massive tree. Towering. Dead. Forged of dark iron. Its limbs crackle faintly with static.
