The Father was a powerful Force wielder who resided in the realm of Mortis, a member of the enigmatic family known as the Ones. His children, the Daughter and the Son, embodied the light side and the dark side of the Force respectively, and the Father maintained the balance between them until his failing health compelled him to seek a successor.
During the Clone Wars, the Father guided Anakin Skywalker to Mortis to test his abilities, concluding that he was indeed the Chosen One destined to bring balance to the Force. When the machinations of the Son threatened the galaxy, the Father sacrificed his own life with the Dagger of Mortis to strip the Son of his powers, prophesying that Skywalker would one day fulfill his destiny.
The Father's legacy endured through the World Between Worlds and the towering Mortis statues later encountered on Peridea. This overview summarizes sourced material under CC BY-SA; see the Timeline for chronology.
