I. - ANAKIN’S EYE / JAW. it’s mentioned that anakin received this scar from a battle with ventress during the duel in the coruscant underlevels. after ventress steals a holodisc given by one of padme’s handmaidens , anakin skywalker becomes enraged when she listens to the hologram , and proceeds to threaten his secret wife. in hot pursuit when ventress flees , anakin’s attacks become slightly erratic , possibly because of his uncontrolled rage. after missing his target , ventress mocks his attacks and lands two different slashes across anakin’s face : a vertical cut on his eye , and a slash right under his jaw. he becomes immersed within his anger and eventually snaps after ventress continues her taunting. anakin in return force - blasts her from the edge of a building and telekinetically entangles her in electric wires , torturing her momentarily.
after receiving these wounds and watching as they scarred over his flesh , anakin was constantly reminded of the failure of keeping calm during a battle. his exchange with ventress only pushed him closer to the dark side , and opened up a doorway of channeling his anger into a weapon of destruction. for this reason , it developed insecurity both with his appearance , and his capabilities. for weeks he would shy away from padme’s curious and tentative gaze , often finding himself casting his own eyes downward to avoid exposure to his scars.
