Anakin Skywalker
"The Chosen One," "Darth Vader"
Modern Epithet
Every since Qui-Gon Jinn discovered Anakin, people referred to him as the Chosen One because he was destined to defeat the Sith Lord. Once consumed by the Dark Side of the Force, he became Darth Vader until he defeated the Sith Lord, fulfilling his prophecy as the Chosen One.
Modern Epic Simile
Consumed with hatred and desperation, Anakin fights like a hurricane, destroying everything in his path and losing almost all remnants of his past life.
