Anakin Skywalker is likely the most powerful being to have ever existed (in the Star Wars Universe).

In this round, I will be presenting some possible alternatives to the title of "Most Powerful Being in the Star Wars Universe." My responses may be slightly rushed due to this silly error message; I apologize for this in advance. Let me first begin by listing the possible alternatives I plan to discuss: 1. Nomi Sunrider 2. Abeloth 3. Thon 4. Odan-Urr 5. Luke Skywalker As Round three is designated "free-choice" I reserve the right to add or subtract individuals from this list until that point in the debate. My contentions shall be organized around each individual to keep things straightforward and organized. Sources will be cited in each section, rather than grouped together at the end. FRAMEWORK Presume Con: Presume Con because Pro has the duty to prove that a single human being is more powerful that all the gazillion (excuse my technical lingo) beings that have ever existed in the Star Wars Universe. This is an incredibly difficult task, and the odds are not in his favor (excuse my mixing metaphors as well.) BOP: All I would need to do is show ONE viable alternative for the title of "most powerful" and I would win. I assert that because of the presumption against Pro that if you believe my alternative could possibly be more powerful or as powerful, I have one. CONTENTION ONE: Nomi Sunrider Nomi Sunrider served at one point as the Grand Master of the Jedi Order, and possessed several impressive force abilities. She had the rare technique of sever force, which enabled her to cut off someone from the force permanently. This technique was demonstrated when she cut off rogue Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma from the force. for the rest of his life, he was never able to feel or wield the force. Secondly, we can look to Sunrider's incredible feat at Yavin. "Hundreds of Jedi descended into the atmosphere of Yavin 4, and together they were able to create the wall of light"with Sunrider using her superior powers to help direct the energies. However, their efforts had unforeseen effects as Sunrider watched the light side wave turn the surface of Yavin 4 into a blazing inferno...Additionally, Sunrider was chosen due to her superior powers to direct the full force of the Wall of Light erected by thousands of Jedi to trap the spirit of Exar Kun on Yavin 4. This was especially impressive considering that among the thousands of Jedi was her own Master, Thon, who was known to possess powers that even the Masters of Ossus had no knowledge of." Sunrider was also one of the strongest users of battle meditation: "Sunrider's sensitivity to the Force allowed her to become one of the most powerful and accomplished users of the art of battle mediation[15]"a skill which only a handful of Jedi had previously been able to fully master." Finally, Sunrider was a skilled duelist whose prowess against the Sith was tested time and again. She was able to slay myriad Sith and hssiss (dark side creatures) singlehandedly, and was considered one of the three elite Jedi Knights of all time (along with Thon and Yoda.)

Initially, she was part of a family of four--The Bringer of Balance (the Father), the Bringer of Light (the Daughter), the Bringer of Dark (the Son), and The Bringer of Chaos (Abeloth.) Abeloth was the only mortal one of the family, and in an attempt to become ageless, she drank from the Font of Power [1] which is said to provide unlimited power to the drinker. "Abeloth could command the native flora of her planet to do her bidding and also had the ability to influence the minds of Force-sensitive beings who had spent an extended period of time in the Maw, causing in them a psychosis which made them believe that everyone"except for other such psychotic beings"had been replaced by impostors and instilling in them a desire to find her. Once the influenced being found her, she consumed their life energy, killing them and making herself stronger. The strength of her influence was formidable"even when the Jedi learned what symptoms to look for, upon the onset of the psychosis they still believed that everyone they knew was an impostor. She was also able to control the Meditation Sphere Ship which was programmed to obey the strongest will; her powers overwhelming those of the Sith's and of the Jedi's attempts to control the Sphere. Described by Tahiri Veila as a living Force volcano, Abeloth's strength in the Force was a dozen times that of Luke Skywalker, who was widely recognized as the most powerful Force user in the galaxy. Abeloth wielded exceptional telekinetic powers, using the Force to blast everyone away from her during her battle with the Sith and Jedi. She was able to resist the powers of a control web, and was also able to teleport herself from one place to another, a power which she also used during her battle with the Sith and Jedi. Abeloth was able to take on the physical appearances of beings that she had consumed, including Callista Ming and Dyon Stadd, and she was also able to project images of other beings, as she did when projecting an image of Callista while she herself took on the form of Stadd in an attempt to trick Luke Skywalker. Abeloth was able to redirect Vestara Khai's Force lightning back at her. She was also more than capable of using Force lightning herself, using it in multiple fights with the Sith and Luke Skywalker. Abeloth's sheer strength was extensive--after her mental duel with Vol, she released waves of Force energy on Tahv that caused the beings in her vicinity to implode, those farther away to be ripped to pieces, the buildings to melt to the ground, and glass and weaponry to fly through the city, looking for someone to hurt so that they could feel the pain she felt. Abeloth was also able to possess or switch bodies"before Skywalker could kill her, she switched bodies with Stadd and took on Stadd's appearance, tricking the Jedi and Sith for several days into believing that she was dead."

CONTENTION THREE: Thon This one line essentially sums up Thon: "He was a master of every power known to the Jedi, and even taught the other Masters several powers unknown to them at the time." Along with Nomi Sunrider and Yoda, Thon was considered on of the three most powerful light-side users to have ever existed. One exmplar of Thon's power is the following story: The planet Ambria "became the home of a Sith sorceress...she attempted to conduct an ancient Sith ritual. However, it proved too complex for her to pull off correctly, and she inadvertently released a wave of dark side energy; this eradicated the few sentients living on the planet...The planet then became a focal point for Sith during the fall of the Sith Empire, who eventually passed away, leaving malevolent spirits behind on Ambria...Thon landed on the surface of the barren planet and was immediately ambushed by the Sith spirits, which he easily repelled with his superior knowledge of the Force...[He] swam out into the middle of Lake Nath...When he reached the center of the lake, Thon gave in to the dark side, and the Sith energies swarmed around his limp body. He then cunningly used his remaining energy to use the Force to trap his adversaries in a web of light side energy, before leaving the lake forever...With the exception of the lake, Ambria was finally cleansed of the dark side." Thon was also capable of battle meditation, telepathy, and generating massive force waves, among myriad other abilities. he was also highly skilled with a lightsaber.

He was one of the most skilled Jedi ever to have lived in the art of battle meditation, which "granted the user the power to determine the outcome of a battle, and ensure victory for their side. A Jedi could literally imagine what they wished to happen with their mind's eye and it would quickly become a reality, and they could turn their enemies against each other." He, like Nomi, could use sever force and was skilled with a lightsaber. "Odan-Urr was also a master of Force sense, which granted the user the ability to extend his senses through the Force and gain a great awareness of his surroundings. He could also use a power known as Force Alter, which meant he could change the nature and distribution of the Force around him. Odan-Urr communicated with other beings through the Force, using telepathy." He could also see visions of the future. Source: http://starwars.wikia.com... CONTENTION FIVE: Luke Skywalker Luke Skywalker could use the force to regenerate within hours of a severe injury. He was extremely proficient in using the force to boost his athletic abilities--often moving to fast for opponents to see. "During the Battle of Dathomir, Luke flew the Millennium Falcon single-handedly using only the Force, manipulating its controls and operating it with a skill that not even a full crew could manage....Luke also destroyed a group of hot-wired battle droids just by waving his hand, subtly displacing their master servos and causing the self-destruction of the group of droids. Luke was able to knock down a crippled AT-AT by pressing against it with the Force; he also absorbed the initial cannon blasts from the AT-AT, before deflecting the rest with his lightsaber." He was able to telepathically communicate with a sentient crystal; the more disparate the mind, the harder telepathy becomes. He was skilled in force illusions, teleportation, force-assisted tracking, and was able to plant himself so firmly "that not even a black hole...could move him." Source: http://starwars.wikia.com...
