Vader Breath: Difference between revisions

** Almost any parody of Vader, including the ones done by ''[[Family Guy]]'' and ''[[South Park]],'' must include Vader Breath. Conversely, if a character on a show such as these suddenly develops [[Vader Breath]], it ''becomes'' a parody of Vader.

** Parodied in ''[[Spaceballs]]''.

*** And the [[Rule of Funny]] helps cover the fact that, as stated above, Vader can't breathe OUTSIDE of his suit.

*** Dark Helmet didn't ''need'' his helmet to survive, he just wore it because [[Compensating for Something|it was sooooo big.]]

* Techpriests in ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' often have their lower face and lungs replaced by cybernetics. Because of the [[Schizo-Tech|strongly varying tech-levels]] of the setting, this can work perfectly well and even surpass the original organs - or result in Vader Breath, which in the roleplaying games makes strenuous physical activity harder (the lungs are less efficient at oxygenising the blood) and applies a penalty to Sneaking rolls.

** Cue inevitable [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]]--for example, a Techpriest model for ''Inquisitor'' reminding the creator of "He's more machine now than man."

** The Necron Lord of All Kaurava in [[Dawn of War]].

*** A Necron that speaks ''at all'' is unique in the setting.
