Hero With No Fear

The title "Hero With No Fear" was one of many monikers given to Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars. Following his exploits during the Battles of Jabiim and Aargonar, HoloNet features commonly referred to Skywalker using this nickname, turning him into a poster boy for the Republic war effort.

Despite this nickname, Skywalker himself was plagued by the fear of failure, pain and loss, and delved into the dark side of the Force in an attempt to attain further power and quash his fear. As Darth Vader, he initially considered himself to truly be the Hero With No Fear, but after realizing the cost of his newfound power—the death of Padmé Amidala and his injuries suffered on Mustafar—he came to understand he would always carry fear with him.
