The Dark Vader Varient

Right, the Variant. Well, let's look at the Skills he would NOT use

Find Item, Find Potion, Grim Ward. He scares folks by his own bad self, not by using Voodo. The force uses him as a focus.

Battle Command: No, his troops are scared sh**less by him, so he can't inspire them to greatness.

Warcry: Nope again, he is quiet and lethal.

Battle Orders: Hmmmm . . . I don't see it, but the Force does multiply his abilities so that he is rather awesome. Thus, he can use BO, but NOT to help the party or other troops. In Short, he's not a great team player.

Taunt: Maybe. He knows how to talk smack and get folks all upset.

Howl. No, he scares people just because he is BAD!

Shout: Yes, he can use the Force to make his armor better.

Masteries: Sword. Of course.
Increased Stamina? Nope.
Increased Speed? Nope. He does not need to walk very fast. He is just BADARSE!!!
Stone Skin: Hmm, uses the force to deflect blows, like the little picture. OK, I can see it.
Natural Resistance: Hmm, uses the Force to overcome elemental damage. OK, I can see it.

Combat Skills:

Bash. Uh, I suppose so. He knocks people around pretty well when he gets his dander up.
Stun. Ditto. He has a hell of an effect on folks.
Leap: Yes.
Leap Attack: uh, he already has Leap, the Force will take care of him.
Double Throw, Swing, Frenzy: Uh, he only uses one light saber, and that is all he needs. Questions?
Concentrate: absolutely. He is able to focus the force when in combat. No one can interrupt him. :)
Whirlwind: UH, I have a hard time with that one. It was YODA who did Whirlwind in Attack of the Clones . . . so, where does Vader do that? Does he want to lose another arm due to a careless attack?
Berserk: Well, Let's see. He uses the Force to convert damage to the most painful . . . OK.

Now, as for the Look

Consider a Grim Helm, or some such headgear, Three or Two sockets, with Pskulls. His Force is strong, it constantly draws on it and gains strength.

Interesting ideas, maybe a six socketed Sword of some sort with Perfect Rubies. That should show up as red. :)

OK, there we go, a few other ideas.

Oh, and for his Paduan Learner, I suppose it has to be an Act V Sword dude: Gotta teach him in the way of the Light Saber.
