CT If Darth Vader knew Leia was his daughter, would he have still tortured her?

As Anakin, he was very attached to his loved ones. So, would he have had it in him to torture Leia if he knew she was his daughter?

 

Yes. In ANH and TESB he was full-on Sith Lord and this brat of a daughter dared to defy the Empire multiple times.

 

No, I don't think he would've. In the 6th, he stopped and ultimately killed the Emperor because the Emperor was torturing Luke. He would've of done the same with Leia.

 

I believe that he still would have since she obviously wasn't even away that she was force sensitive in ESB, therefore not as powerful as Luke.

So I think that he would have still toutured her to lure Luke to cloud city in ESB. Getting Luke was his ultimate goal at the time, nothing would get in his was, especially Leia whom had little worth to him at the time.

 

Better question - what do you think Vader would have done to Jabba the Hutt if Jabba had succeeded in killing Luke (either with the Rancor or with the Sarlaac) and Vader ended up hearing about it (which he would have)?

 

Well think about this, Vader kills Admiral Ozzel, along with other officers that serve him for causing minimal errors.

If Jabba had successfully killed Luke I would imagine that Vader would not only have killed Jabba for putting a major hole through his plans, but he would have went on a rampage in the palace, killing others, similar to his slaughter of the Tuskans in AOTC.

 

What do you mean "if"?

 

I think the OP was referring to ESB when Vader held her in Cloud City as bait to lure Luke to him.

 

I was referring to the fact that I'm one of the minority who believe that Vader knew who Leia was way before the end of ROTJ

 

I thought it was clear when Vader hisses "Your sister" in ROTJ that he had discovered it just then. I know that he was trying to get Luke to fight him, but I really do think that he was pleased discovering about her at that moment and having a back-up for Luke in case he can't turn him.

 

This. Unless the novelizations have a different account. It seems clear that Vader found out about Leia's roots during the duel with Luke in RotJ.

 

It is my belief and it works for me, so

 

Jabba would die really, really slowly. And I imagine it would've devastated Vader to know his son is dead and his hopes of overthrowing Palpatine and fulfilling his dreams of power were destroyed.

 

Vader cut off Luke's hand knowing that he was his son, didn't he? Of course he would have tortured Leia still. She was the enemy and she wasn't on his side.

 

I believe he would still have tortured her. As far as him not allowing Luke to be tortured, he did. He decided to kill the Emperor before he could kill Luke. When you watch it Vader clearly has time to get up and walk to Palpatine's side and watch his son be electricuted. Then he has time to sit back and have his internal conflict hit the breaking point and finally, thankfully, a decision is made and he is redeemed.

I think he would have no problem torturing Leia and based off ROTJ I would say he'll let it go as far as about to die.

 

Probably. The dark side will make you forget, after all. The better question is, knowing that, why did "The Dark Ranger" (of "Agony in Pink" fame) write a fanfic about it?

 

My question is, would he let Tarkin rape her?

 

In exchange for a really cool Sith holocron? Possibly.

 

That´s a tough question actually, but I think he still would have tortured Leia.

I don't think Tarkin is a rapist. He's unbelievable evil but he still holds himself to some standards.

Splinters of the Mid Eye hints that Tarkin did... and seriously, have you seen [image=http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/6/6c/Epguide319.jpg]this photo? He´s a pedo

 

I could make just as good a case that Obi-Wan is a closet-homosexual.

 

During ANH, Vader was still a full bore Sith, it took time for him to soften to Luke.

He wouldn't have cared at all if Leia was his daughter or not, he would have flayed her for the information to the Rebel base.

At that point, Anakin Skywalker was completely buried under Darth Vader.

 

It is the fact that Vader found out that Leia is his daughter that brought about his redemption. Think about it, he knows that the Emperor heard him say this and realizes that if he kills Luke, he'll go after Leia next. Vader couldn't allow that to happen, hence why he died saving Luke's life so I say he won't torture Leia even if he had known that she was his kid by ANH.

His redemption could've happened much earlier.
