Darth Vader learned of this ability through Darth Sidious, and upon his death, the spirits of Kenobi and Yoda completed his training by granting him the last step in becoming a spirit. Anakin's spirit appeared as that of his younger self, prior to his fall to the dark side.
Star Wars will finally explain how Anakin Skywalker became a Force Ghost after his death in Return of the Jedi, a long-standing mystery in the franchise. The upcoming book, From A Certain Point Of View: Return of the Jedi, confirms that Obi-Wan guided Anakin in his final moments, helping him become a Force Ghost.
Qui-Gon Jinn appears to Kenobi for the first time as a Force spirit. The first known Jedi to learn the secret was Qui-Gon Jinn, who learned it from a Shaman of the Whills. His training remained incomplete at the time of his death, so he could only manifest as a disembodied voice.
How is Anakin Skywalker a force ghost when he didn't disappear after death, and didn't learn how to maintain himself after death like Obi-wan and Yoda had? Because Obi-Wan taught Anakin right before he died.
Why didn't Mace Windu showup as a force ghost? Qui Gon died before he could finish his training so he can only appear as a voice and not a physical form. Mace Windu never studied or trained in that aspect of the force.
Somehow, Obi-Wan or Yoda taught him how to become a Force ghost in time for Luke to see him in Return of the Jedi. Another theory stated that Kylo couldn't become his own Force ghost because he and Rey were part of a Force Dyad, meaning that his consciousness was absorbed into Rey when he died.
Qui-Gon Jinn was the first character in a film to show Star Wars audiences that not all Jedi became Force ghosts upon dying (by virtue of his body not disappearing at death), but he was established in Attack of the Clones as a voice addressing Anakin Skywalker, and also in Revenge of the Sith as the first (by ...
In material that is now considered Legends, Qui-Gon is even described as a Gray Jedi. Additionally, the term has also been applied to Force-sensitives who aren't affiliated with the Light or Dark side of the Force. Quite literally, these Gray Jedi don't see things in black and white, or light versus dark.
Summary. The ending of The Rise of Skywalker sees Leia as a Force ghost, but it's never explained how she was trained to do this after her death. Leia's ability to become a Force ghost isn't far-fetched, as she had three Jedi Masters who could have taught her - Luke, Obi-Wan, and Yoda.
According to official tie-ins, Anakin's Force Ghost would visit Luke many times over the next decade, offering him guidance and counsel as he reestablished the Jedi Order.
The first Dark Jedi was believed to be Xendor , who was the first member of the Jedi Order to fall. Other forerunners included Ajunta Pall and others who, after the Hundred-Year Darkness , were exiled from Galactic Republic space and became the ancient progenitors of the Sith Lords .
Anakin's spirit did return to help Ahsoka overcome her past trauma and to make amends with his former Padawan for the terrible things he did as Darth Vader. The last shot of Ahsoka season 1 presents the scene from his perspective, removing all doubt that he was only in Ahsoka's head.
Darth Vader can not use force lighting, because of his severed arms. Robotic hands can't summon the force lighting. However Darth Vader can still use other forms of the force, such as force choke.
Star Wars has officially confirmed Sith spirits are in no way comparable to Force Ghosts. The idea of Force Ghosts runs all the way back to the first Star Wars film released in 1977, in which Obi-Wan Kenobi allowed himself to be cut down by Darth Vader.
And they forgave Anakin. The ideas of the smiling heavenly force ghost of Anakin next to Obi Wan watching over Luke or Kylo being portrayed as a finally good person before his death obviously did not bother the writers.
The closest that Star Wars canon has come to naming who trained Yoda was revealing that Jedi Master Qui-Gon Ginn was the one who taught Yoda to become a Force Ghost and attain immortality.
Originally Answered: Why doesn't Ben Solo appear as Force Ghost? Because he's now literally a part of Rey. Earlier in the movie, Rey healed that snake thing and said she transferred part of her life force to it. That was foreshadowing that when Rey died it look all of Ben's life force to grind her back.
However, unlike the Sith, who wish to live and hold their power for eternity, immortality through the Force is different. Qui-Gon knew it. He learned it from the Shaman of the Whills, who taught him that becoming a Force Ghost requires a person to be entirely selfless.
Summary. Qui-Gon Jinn's refusal to conform to the Jedi Order's wishes posed a threat to Palpatine's plan to take over the galaxy. Qui-Gon's strong connection to the Force would have allowed him to detect Palpatine's evil plans much earlier than the rest of the Jedi.
The term “gray Jedi” in Star Wars is somewhat of a misnomer, considering that the definition refers to one who is practically non-Jedi. That being said, quite a few Jedi can be placed into this category. But Mace Windu identified as a Jedi despite his possible inclusion in the "gray" category.
Gray lightsabers are often associated with Jedi who do not fully follow the Jedi Code, but also do not fully embrace the Dark Side. These Jedi are often able to balance the light and dark sides of the Force and use their powers to serve the common good and are less likely to be influenced by the Dark Side.
Because Maul punched him with the hilt of his saber and then stabs him faster than Qui-Gon can pull back his blade. So Qui-Gon lost because Maul was physically stronger and quicker than him. Qui-Gon is skilled but not a prodigy. And he's quickly worn down by Maul in both their encounters.
We are led to assume this as in TCW Qui-gon admits his training was incomplete. He could only appear on Mortis, anywhere else he could only be a disembodied voice.
When Qui-Gon passed the Jedi Trials and became a Jedi Knight, Dooku told him not to trust others because his need to reach out to others left him vulnerable to betrayal. When Qui-Gon was killed by Darth Maul, Dooku was so saddened that Qui-Gon's death lead to Dooku's transformation into the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus.
