Core Analysis

The Jedi Master who survives the fall of his order, Obi-Wan Kenobi is restraint under grief: a mentor carrying failure, faith, and responsibility into exile.

Obi-Wan's psychology is discipline after heartbreak. He believes in the Jedi path, but his life is marked by the cost of students, friends, and institutions falling apart.

His relationships with Anakin, Luke, Leia, Qui-Gon, and Vader reveal a man who converts grief into service. His conflict is how to keep faith without denying what faith failed to prevent.
