Princess Leia Almost Became Star Wars' Next Darth Vader
While Leia Organa became a true Jedi in the Star Wars Legends continuity, her path to knighthood brought her far closer to the dark side of the Force than many would think, risking the creation of the next Darth Vader. Leia’s strong connection to the Force and her altruistic leadership in the Rebellion made her a natural choice to become a Jedi in Luke Skywalker’s New Jedi Order, similar to her story in the ongoing post-2014 canon timeline. Unfortunately, a specific incident that reminded Leia too much of her late father, Darth Vader, led her to put her Jedi training on hold for decades.
