Yet, she was given a black-and-white world view. At the age of 10, Leia was discovered by her biological father, Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, to be a powerful Force-user. Vader took Leia away from Senator Bail, and began her training in the Way of the Jedi as well as being trained by the Emperor Palpatine to be a Sith Assassin/Emperor's Hand. Because of her initial training as a Jedi, Leia isn't completely "corrupted" by the Dark Side. She is "seduced" by the Dark Side by her own temper and sex. Despite the harsh treatment she received from her father, she loves him greatly and understands that he is the source of good within the Empire. She also understands while her father has more raw power then the Emperor, he does not wish to rule in public. At the age of 14, Leia started her life in the Imperial Service as the Emperor's Hand, as well as undergoing training from the Imperial Royal Guards. As the Emperor's Hand, she is the Emperor and Vader's personal sith assassin as well as a secret agent for the Empire. By the time she's 18, she will have foiled a vast number of assassination attempts, killed twenty-two victims through assassination, and have thorted several major Rebel plans. She has also established her own network of spies and informers. She smuggles non-threaten information to the Rebellion. At the age of 18 (time of Episode 4: "A New Hope"), Leia is given the title of "Dark Lady (Skywalker)" and made the Commander of the Imperial Royal Guard. In this role, she opens their ranks to other female soldiers, and aliens, with the approval of Vader. She protects the Emperor, solely so Vader doesn't have to become the Emperor. That Leia protects the Emperor for her father's sake is known to the Emperor and amuses him. The Imperial Royal Guard are the elite of the elite warriors, trained in the way of Sith/Jedi, but they lack the Force-sensitivity of a true Sith/Jedi. Leia, herself, has undergone the life/death training of the Imperial Royal Guard, and even without the Force, she is their equal, with the Force, she's their superior. Dark Lady (Leia) is sent in to deal with things require a degree of subtly, yet a definite public Imperial presence. In contrast, Vader is used when overkill and public Imperial presence is required. Leia Skywalker uses sex as a weapon and a reward. Leia's Dark Lady uniform is similiar to Vader's outfit, yet highlights her feminity and allows easy access to her body as needed by the Emperor or when she initiates sex. Dark Lady is known for using the Force to hold own's sex organs, either for reward or punishment. She is also known to take an Imperial Officer she finds attractive into her quarters, there she has the Officer milk himself until he's empty and raw, then she has sex with him. While the Emperor is misogynic and xenophobic, Vader and Leia aren't. As the Emperor only believes in Fear and Terror, Vader and Leia understand that you can only go so far with that. Loyalty, Obedience, etc have their places... Vader has his own agents and sith knight-servants made up of various races and genders... unlike the Emperor who mostly uses male human. Vader's agents and sith knight-servants are extremely loyal to Vader and his daughter. Dark Lady is basically third-in-command of the Empire... and is the third-strongest Force-user known to the Emperor. The Emperor doesn't know about Luke, but Leia has felt him in the Force, and Vader has had a glimmer of him... Luke is stronger in the Force then his father is and Vaker/Anakin is stronger in the raw power of the Force then the Emperor, but the Emperor knows more Lore, techniques, etc.... The Emperer fears any child, especially a male child, of Leia's, to which he set it up so that Leia can't have any children until she's in her 30s... as well as made it so that Leia can never be fully independent like Leia Organa was, even if she is redeemed from the Dark Side. Leia knows this, and accepts it since she can't do anything about it. It also increases her libido. Leia is searching for Luke, in the hopes that he can replace the Emperor and be her master and Vader's and/or restore the ideals of the Old Republic. Episode 4: "A New Hope" goes slight different here. - Leia is Dark Lady, and a known Darksider and daughter of Vader. She knows that the Emperor is evil, and needs to be removed, but she also knows that the Old Republic was corrupted beyond redemption and the Empire isn't inheritally evil. - Dark Lady, along with two female Imperial Royal Guards, and Darth Vader are seeking out the stolen plans for the Death Star. Neither Skywalker is worried about the plans, save to appease the Emperor. - R2-D2 with the plans and C-3PO end up with Luke Skywalker, as canon, save that the message R2-D2 is carrying is from someone else (obviously). Luke takes the droid to Kenobi, Kenobi hires Han Solo to take them to Alderaan. - It is Leia that goes down to the planet of Tattoine, and feels Luke close by. She is teased by her fellow Guardswomen about being interested in a mere boy. - Leia and Vader are sent by the Emperor to the Death Star, Leia knows that Vader is being sent to be the Emperor's eyes onboard the Death Star, and that she, herself, is to be Grand Moff Tarkin's reward for the night, if Tarkin is successful with the Death Star. This is not the first time, she's had to whore herself out for the Emperor, nor will it be the last, but she is miffed at Tarkin's treatment of her father. It is Leia that selects Alderaan as the Death Star's first target both for political reasons, and to punish Bail Organa. - After being captured, Kenobi faces off against Vader, loses, and becomes One with the Force. Leia "tests" Luke, but Luke turns out to be very naive and ignorant... Luke is troubled by Leia, as he feels a connection to her. With Kenobi's sacrifice the Millennium Falcon escapes, and delivers the plans to the Rebellion. Leia gets permission from the Emperor to follow the Millennium Falcon, while Vader remains. - While the Rebellion attacks the Death Star, Leia is out looking for Luke. Luke is able to destroy the Death Star as per canon. Episode 5: "The Empire Strike Back"
