    Hi there!

    Ok, it may sounds stupid, but i SO have this doubt: How does Darth Vader rest ? Is there any machine that allows him to breathe off the helmet ?

    In one of the OT movies we can see him in that global "chamber", with a device helping him to put his helmet on. But the doubts persist...

    Oh, and if anyone has a scheme/diagram explaining the function of all those buttons/lights on his chest, I'd be extremely grateful to check it. ;)

    thanks in advance!

    His meditation chamber works by superoxygenating the air, I think. If that's true, there's no reason Vader couldn't also have a bedroom, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a luxury "house of pain" entertainment suite with a similar setup. :p

    I thought that Admiral Piett would give Vader a foot massage every night after a hard days work and have a good gossip. I could be wrong, though.

    How could they ever play music in Vader's helmet? Oh, sorry, I thought you meant the "other" sort of helmet! [face_laugh]

    well the little red butten turns the suit on. so never touch that. the blue one controls the air conditioning, it has to get hot in that suit. the yellow one is the fun on. he can alter his voice to sound like a little girl. in stead of heavy breathin it is a subtle but almost constant giggle.

    Can he make his voice sound as if he'd just been kicked in the "helmet"? You know, all squeeky like one of the chipmunks! :p [face_mischief]

    Vader sounding like a little girl? Now that would freak me out.

    His meditation chamber works by superoxygenating the air, I think.

    But, if the air contained too much oxygen, wouldn't that damage him eventually? I know that he only can spend a few minutes without his mask, but I believe that too much pure oxygen can harm the lungs, by creating too much moisture.

    I could be wrong though, I don't remember that part of science too well. :p

    Then what, exactly, is the point of breathing without his mask? I doubt that his lungs are iron.

    Vader has a huge bed with satin sheets. It is considered the best bed in the galaxy.

    He snuggles up with Vader of course.
    He's just one big teddy bear to Palpums.
    He calls Vader Lord Snookums when no one's around.

    I didn't know Palps was batting for the other team! :eek: No wonder he kept coming out with all that dodgy talk about the Dark Side in ROTJ!
