personality:
Jedi are supposed to be compassionate because they are meant to be peacekeepers. Kind and with a strong sense of justice they are often held up as an example of how to be a good person. Anakin is all this and his Padawan, Ahsoka even says that he is the kindest person she knew, but he can take it to a bullheaded extreme and can be a bit of a loose cannon who is willing to break as many rules as he needs to do the right thing. What also differentiates him to the other Jedi is that his duty is to what he believes and not necessarily what the Jedi Council decides. He follows his own internal code on what is right and when that conflicts with other people's he'll at least show the foresight to be creative in his interpretations. He gets married in secret because he believes it's another way to show compassion and convinces himself that the dangers of attachments that the Jedi Council speaks of don't apply to him and even teaches Ahsoka early on in the Clone Wars to be as creative as him in applying orders from the Council. For Anakin the ends very much justify the means.
Anakin's impulsive and not the type to sit back which isn't a very good combination when he's meant to be understanding and represent stability in trying times. He jumps into situations with a half-formed plan at best or makes it up completely as he goes at the worst. Because he usually manages to pull off whatever feat he's attempting he's come to have a bit of a reputation for being unconventional and unpredictable.
Anakin has very strong emotional reactions to everything. He wears his heart on his sleeve and is open about how he feels. He empathises strongly with others, often willing to shoulder a burden for someone else. At the same time this is his greatest weakness as a Jedi as he can't just separate himself from a situation. This means he finds it difficult to find balance within the Force to reach his full potential and doesn't react to situations with a cool head.
He gets attached very easily and finds it extremely difficult to let go. He may be a Jedi expected to eschew them, but it's what he finds hardest to do. On one hand this means he cares deeply for his friends and family, but on the other his fear of losing them drives him to dangerous places with his future as Darth Vader being the most obvious example. This along with his tendency to take slights personally means he also lashes out hard when he feels betrayed by the people closest to him.
Cocky is a word some might use to describe him, but arguably it's not arrogance, rather him being confident in his abilities. He knows what he's capable of and combined with his impulsiveness means what others might say was a risky manoeuvre isn't by him. He genuinely believes that he is capable of pulling it off and that it has the greatest chance of getting the outcome he wants. However all the skill in the world doesn't mean there aren't things that are simply out of his control and he has yet to learn that. He still believes if he tried harder or was more powerful he could change things. It's the basis for his guilt over his mother's death and why he wants to be strong enough so something like that never happens again.

history: link
abilities:
- The Force is an umbrella term that covers a lot of what that he can do.
- Enhanced physical abilities - faster reflexes, enhanced stamina, greater physical ability
- Slight precognition - instinctively able to predict hits and occasionally can see glimpses of the future
- Telekinesis - most famously used to choke people, but has a range of different uses from lifting things to creating a barrier.
- Telepathy - forcing someone to reveal information, controlling their actions for a short period of time, rendering someone unconscious and sensing someone's presence
- Pilot - Anakin won his freedom flying something as a child so it's definitely something he's got a gift for. He also blew up a battleship as a child flying a starfighter for the first time.
- Engineer - All things mechanical come naturally to him. He's shown to be an adept mechanic and he's worked on everything from droids to shuttles and even his own arm.
- Jedi Knight - Anakin has spent years learning how to fight and has further honed his skills during the Clone Wars. He's a highly skilled fighter to the point where people are starting to think he's one of the best fighters in the Jedi Order.
