The Tragic Story of a Clone who tried to be Darth Vader’s Friend [Legends] 

Hoi

I love a good video by you thank you so much

10:34 I see what you did there

I learnt about this from Jeshua Revan monthss ago, but thanks to show this story as the biggest star wars lore youtuber in english. I'm surprised you hadn't done a video on this before

The Lore Master can you do a vid about Lieutenant Sanburn

True

Kilthan2050 during Vader’s prime it’s fairly fair to say not much was left. At that point, he was just a ruthless killer. It’s only after the Jedi purge was close to over that he went to more personal matters. Well... in canon

And hunted him

You won't see it in the movies, but Vader killed plenty of regular troopers on his own too. Sometimes without provocation

@@alphariusfuze8089 OK BOOMER

Ah I see you're a man of culture, Rau Le Creuset

@@neonzaku4989 I actually hate seed but Crest is cool character design

@@ashlee6675 oh fair enough lmao

Lol man of culture he said

The man has a type.

To be fair, it was mostly his fault. He did send his men directly into a trap

@@anotherpersonfromnorfolk1587 He refused to listen to the field commander who had a clear visual. of the situation and could tell there wasn't something right. On top of that, he refused proper reinforcement and never called in for a recon team, had he done that, they'd've seen the traps laid out for them, they'd've seen the starfighters *and* the shield, and they could've chosen a much safer route of combat that didn't involve unnecessary death. The main thing Vader did wrong was choosing him as the General, and the main thing CT did wrong was insubordination

Lying to the boss with the bois

true dishonesty

was it really a lie? the general ordered a blind charge over a personal insult, that idiotic, i say they told the truth...

@Jason Magliveras yeah. It's possible that Vader was giving the clone an out without making it obvious.

The fact that he yelled at him and lived says otherwise.

501 likes, nice

Not his style. Once he starts killing he doesn't stop unless someone he respects gets him too.

@King of The Zinger you can't lead for shit u beta

Nol Dragon “I’m going to allow this” 😭😭

Empire Fight Club

Vader and his unit approaching the fist fist between the two clones. Vader: Hold up guys! I wanna see these two ladies duke it out in this mud. Storm Troopers all start laughing.

Ted Lincoln Place your credits!

Just Sith lord things

Yeah, but nice 1.

it was a great ending, compared to all the other deaths you see in canon for good and innocent clones and citizens.

Yea not tragic at all

In part II Vader finds him and kills his family, then leaves, totally weird

I'm still in shock that my dark lord let him live . And I'm glad he lived a peaceful life with his family.

Aww, agreed! ^^ I getcha

What about the apprentice he took on?

There was also a smuggler named Luca

@@Jackalboi96 more of a means to an end tbh

@@shaynehughes6645 well that's depressing

The sad thing is someone is actually living with PTSD right now a lot of them see what hawk see

He was the reason for it lol

i can only hope vader yelled OHHHHH along with the stormtroopers whenever hock landed a blow.

@Darth Maul Galaxy Staaaar, cmon :D

Imagine Vader doing it like a ringside announcer

Bruh 💀

Top comment god

😂😂😂like really

Yoooo my pics a yugioh version of yours booooiiii

I review Bread oh sheee long lost profile pic bro

You made me go into a laughing fit for like a whole minute. Omg, thank you, I didn't see it the first time, but yes! There is SO MUCH to unpack there

Your dad can relate

Hawks earned Vader's respect and Vader probably disobeyed orders to hunt and kills Hawks

Isn't it Hocks?

Or they explain it away by saying crap like, "Evil doesn't exist." If you get a murder boner from slaughtering tons of innocents, especially children, that's all the evidence one needs to call Vader a wicked monster.

@@DarthTwilight The people who say “Evil doesn’t exist” are the same people who commit horrendous crimes of a sexual nature against children.

@@DarthTwilight Nope, he’s killing separatists which are arguably as evil if not even more evil. Long live the Empire.

@@DarthTwilight Didn't he redeem himself? The whole point of his death in ROTJ was for that.

@@sastryvnk4402 yes he does but he does some truly evil things but I think it was all about pain and the rage that the Dark Side tapt into made him into a truly terrifying monster for a number of years. I think there is like 19 years between the episode 3 and 4 and the only two people too take real revenge on was himself and the emperor on which he couldn’t do and the time he realized and wanted to he knew he couldn’t win and I think that alllowed that furnace in him to keep burning. But deep down Anakin was a good person and you see that from when he’s a little kid, the prequels are suppose to show how it was a lot of the Jedi’s fault(including Obi-wan) that Anakin Turned to the dark side and why the emporerrer’s planned worked by abandoning love and family and relationships thinking that they could eliminate the sith and the dark side but made themselves weaker and blind to that weakness as a result.

xXMx_G4MINGXx tell me something i didn’t know lmao

i mean vader was getting pissed of longer the did not surrender and thought if he leave the children and women alive the can pose a threat later in the future even if took in as slaves or force to join the empire he was cuting lose ends to prevent any further trouble it was fear that made him do it, it was the posiblitys of each life he spared outcome and right now after tricking popatine he not fin to take any risk and anger came because of his last fault that he had stored up in the beging vader was never calm or not pissed off when the 2nd fight happened

Vader believes in equality.

That's a good trick.

ikr?! Its like the empire could be totally fine, if they just stop fucking killing the children as well... just leave the fucking children alone, can't you see all the shit begins with you killing children? ffs

Nah...those are just colorful rod sticks

66 yes for Vader as of current

Kill the crops

Then Carry out Order 420!

Tom Evans Smoke’em all

how tf are no one talking about the fact that you are in the comments dude

It's the rule of cool

@@erikcruz4871 Anakin : I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth.

i actually do think this is quite likely, i mean, why else would vader knowingly let his best commander just become a random farmer?

Usually these annoy me but this one was clever

@@Toripusutashi yeah

Ahhhhh shit here we go again

Mello Caps well he has a scar too so

It's on the wrong side of his face, DUH, and runs vertical DUH, how exactly are they reminiscent, my dyslexic simple minded friend?

@@JeffreyAllanBackowski The definition of an asshole.

Jeffrey Allan Backowski II actually, Anakin has a scar down the right side of his face, on the outer corner of his right eye, so it’s the same eye and they’re both vertical, I think it may have been intentional

@@JeffreyAllanBackowski both of their scars are on the right side of their face and both vertical? dyslexia is also for learning through communication such as reading, writing, spelling and sound, not symmetric images of a scar.

Amazing writing friend 😃

i wish my liittle sibling was like that

Vader: Psst if we just blame the dead guy we’ll be fine and I mean they can’t kill him again... Hock: Dats true...

Not really lying if the general was incompetent is it?

VADER WERES VADER I MUST KNOW

@@BabyKicket lol

He was more partial to the 501st, i think, and trusted them mostly because of it.

He was once a slave so he relates

@@chiefie7353 he trusted the 501st because they were the clones that went to war with him when he was Anakin. Most of them had a hunch it was Anakin but didn't dare call him that. He respected and trusted them and vice versa. There's a reason they became Vader's Fist.

In legends vader was usually overprotective of clones with a couple of exceptions. The republic shock troopers and their leader commander fox being the primary example. But other than that he did his best to protect any clones during battle even in one instance literally tanking a ton of enemy firepower to protect a unit of clones.

@@jonathansalcido5208 Yeeesss! I kind of figured that, but was kinda confused.

Vader: I am a feminist, I believe in equality

@@1zc5 women deserve it just as much as men lol

"They were animals. And he slaughtered them like animals. HE HATES THEM!"

@@jddtcg7156 i dont im sorry

Wait how so

Hock was helping Vader kill because before he believed that the empire was fighting for a noble cause, and when he learned the separatists cause for fighting, and witnessed vaders ruthlessness against the ones that couldn't fight back and posed no threat to him and the empire is what made Hock change his view on Vader, he didn't help Vader knowing he was committing atrocities, he simply thought he was helping Vader kill terrorists.

Oh well rebels are terrorists in star wars u see he thought he was killing bad guys when in reality he was helping the bad guys. It's all about perceptions

Young Skywalker

Is that a star wars quote in my star wars video, that was so clever

This comic book predates the prequels, George Lucas must have read it.

Damn Sand People.

Guess old habits die hard

All clones ate expert marksmen, stormtroopers are the ones you see missing

Clones were literal copies of jango fett, there all very great marksman, stormtroopers are the untrained ones

The scar.

@@marin4046 Clones and stormtroopers are expert marksmen, Rebels are the ones you see missing (when their opponents are squeezing single file through a doorway).

@@chasm671 Clones were replaced by Storm Troopers when the emperor saw weakness by having an army of identical soldiers. By ANH, the cloners of Camino had been involved in an uprise against the empire.

Yeah maybe

😂

biggesteasyofmylife35 funny but who asked?

Every single one of them 🤣

Master skywalker, there too many of them, what are we going to do?

At least he was diverse in his killing sprees. He didn't care about sex, race, age, but treated everyone equally under the lightsaber. SJWs should celebrate him as a cultural hero.

@@followthesnailtrails5495 krombopoulus is that you?

@@followthesnailtrails5495 You say how he 'treated everyone equally' like it's a good thing

Oh boy* otherwise wonderful Krombobulous quote

Click bait to the extreme. Video title: The tragic story of Hawk Actual outcome: Hawk starts a family and lives happily ever after.

Overbuilt Limited the ending doesn’t have to be tragic for his life to be.

@@aidantruax1742 tragedy is a drama or similar work, in which the main character is brought to ruin or otherwise suffers the extreme consequences of some tragic flaw or weakness of character. Look at any play that is classified as a tragedy. The main character(s) always die at the end.

@Yaxyax E See my other reply mate. Or is it my guy? I want to get it right since you seem like a kid er, I mean man of culture.

@@overbuiltlimited his story was still pretty tragic. he was a lost wandering bloodlusting man for most of his life. if that isnt tragic then nothing is. if having children being slaughtered infront of you mercilessly is what it took to shake you from whatever horrid mindset you were in isn't tragic, then what in the fuck is dude? i literally hate it when people just open their mouths to open their mouths. kevin heart has a whole bit about dudes just like you.

There's more

The reason Vader liked clones over recruits was that they could aim.

TheGunz0001 No

*Hock

The way you spell "Hawk" in somehow looks like "Ewok" lol

He was in the 501st since he fought by the legion with vader. Vader still lead the 501st after the republic was converted to the empire.

@@hobojLOL S T O P

lmao

😂😂😂

I mean to be fair they were like animals, and he slaughtered them like animals.

he's always hated anything to do with sand. should be a standalone movie: vader vs the planet of tatooine.

Well to be fair with the sand people, they beat his mother to death and she died right in front of him after not seeing her for about a decade. He wasn’t in his right mind when that happened. Consider it like Luke’s reaction right after he saw Obi Won’s death the logic and reason crippling raw emotion and anger taking over.

Someone You Don't Know then it's a good thing we're not children

What do you mean you've seen it ? It's brand new.

He's talking about anakin slaughtering younglings i believe

Pure Phantom and the raiders who were responsible for his mother’s death

"I killed them, Padme. And not just the men... but the women, and the children! I hate them. They're animals, and I slaughtered them *like animals* " Really not sure how Padme was blindsided by his fall to the dark side

That’s what I was thinking

You mean from clonewars?

@@StrandedClone Yes, Captain Rex from Clone Wars. Like a right hand man, someone who got your back.

I mean...he did have him...once...

He already had a captain Rex

While in constant fear of Vader coming to kill him and his family. And with the constant flashbacks of the absolute slaughter he witnessed and took part in

Didn't he retire on Alderaan?

@@monkydance2880 I sure as hell hope that's the case. He deserves nothing less STILL being alive after proudly taking part in all those atrocities.

@@FalconWindblader i wouldn't say he proudly took part when it was literally shame that snapped him out of it once the illusion was broken.

Exactly my thoughts

“I hate when he does that”

My heroe

@Maximus Brutus He was like, "fuhk it, I need dark power to save Padame"

Worst part of the whole story.

@Maximus Brutus I think he thought he was in too deep to change his mind :D

Fair enough

reminds me of people calling deadly weapons "the great equalizer" cuz you can kill without economical power Got underregulated capitalism? No problem, just give ppl the ability to shoot everyone who gets too powerful! Welcome to the USA.

@Ajax Aidy well, I know that term in a political context that aims towards power imbalances of all sorts, but not casual defense against physically stronger opponents. WIth that said, I obviously can't dismiss the possibility of it being used in that sense as well.

More like a champion for monsters, psychopaths, and killers...

@@BlissToby *Under-regulated capitalism? You mean heaven? Yeah, that's definitely not the USA.* The United States has regulations on top of regulations on top of regulations, it would actually take more than a lifetime for a single person to try and read all of them. Tax laws and regulations alone are over 10 million words long and it's only getting longer. USA is a prime example of over-regulation and how politicians monopolize the market in their self-interest for monetary gain with little to no repercussions as they are the law and don't have to compete. Governments pick winners and losers and regulate in the interest of those who can give them the most money while pretending that regulations are there to protect competition, the consumer and public safety, but those virtue-signaling claims couldn't be farther from the truth. The way ISPs are in the US is the fault of the US Federal Government and the Federal Government alone, you should look into the history of ISPs in the US and see how disgusting it is and how the US government has brought the US to the place it is now in terms of ISPs and internet access. Guns are super-regulated and getting more and more restricted and banned by day in the US, so it's not some pro-gun heaven either, while most of the illegal gun activity happens in gun-free zones and in some cities and states law-abiding citizens cannot even get a gun, while criminals and police (often also criminals) are the only ones who have them. The US is, unfortunately, a very ironic country - a country seemingly obsessed with liberty, yet trending towards just the opposite consistently. You know what, just take a look at California - how a once proud State that was the dream for small people and big businesses alike has fallen from grace. People and businesses are massively moving out of California at an increasing pace. Why? Well, no need to ask "why", just guess *who.* Thank you for coming to my TED talk, that's it for this short lesson on economics and monetary history of the US, if you'd like to hear more check out Foundation for Economic Education as well as Reason Foundation. Learn Liberty and Mises Institute are great, too.

Probably

He hates himself, that’s why. When you hate yourself enough, you begin to hate the collective consciousness of all mankind. This is the metaphysical implication of evil.

@@TheBanjoShowOfficial was just about to say that but you beat me to it lol, couldn’t have said it better myself. Every slaughter Vader committed wasn’t necessarily out of pure evil intentions, that was his way of taking out his hate, anger, and suffering on others. If there was one person he hated more than Obi Wan and Palpatine, well just like you said...it was himself.

No, he believes all human have the same right so if he only kill men then miss karen would come to his house and should sexism
