Obi-Wan Kenobi

Obi-Wan Kenobi is another famous Jedi who was the Master of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. He is a powerful force-user and lightsaber combatant, and was instructed by Master Yoda, one of the greatest Jedi ever known. Obi-Wan played a pivotal role in both the Clone War and the Galactic Civil War. He helped to train Luke Skywalker who ended the Civil War and destroyed the Sith, reforming the Galactic Empire back into the Galactic Republic. He is a master of Jedi Mind Tricks, which involves using the Force to control people's minds.

He is killed on board the Death Star by Darth Vader, after sacrificing himself to inspire Luke to continue training as a Jedi. However, his career involved him killing an awful lot of evil conspirators, despite his supposed love of 'alternatives to fighting'. For example, he bisected Darth Maul after Maul killed his master and he performed a forced, failed heart transplant on General Grievous (using a blaster) which eventually killed him. (No, really?)

He also bears a striking resemblace to Gandalf, another wise wizard who is a master of certain powers...
