Obi-Wan Kenobi was the son of Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and an unknown woman, possibly a fellow Jedi Knight. When he was a few months old, Qui-Gon took him to Coruscant to be raised as a Jedi in the Temple. When he was thirteen, he officially began his training. He was present during the Naboo Crisis, meeting his half-brother, Prince Anakin. He also formed a lasting friendship with the Nabooan Principal Handmaiden, Sabé Nabish, who was masquerading as the Queen. This friendship would later turn into love.

After Qui-Gon's death at the hands of Darth Maul, Obi-Wan obeyed his father and Master's request that he train the prince in the ways of the Jedi. Unlike his father, Obi-Wan is far more of a traditional Jedi who plays by the rules. Humility is something that Obi-Wan has an abundance of. He allows Anakin to take credit for much of what they had accomplished together. He is far from arrogant and never boasts about his abilities nor his deeds.

Obi-Wan, throughout his life strove to adhere to the upright, moral codes of the Jedi and valued the honour received through doing such deeds of merit. Obi-Wan is the paradigm of knightly virtue, epitomizing the best of chivalric honour and prowess, yet unfailing in his striving to root out violence. Instead of finding glory through his deeds, his humbleness causes him to ascend to a higher ground. He does the right thing because he ought to do so, not because he is socially constrained to. Without the Jedi Council, Obi-Wan alone felt responsible for upholding these virtues and maintaining peace.

Adherence to the sworn word, to obligation, is crucial to the reliability and predictability that stand at the heart of loyalty. That virtue of loyalty is attached firmly to prowess in chivalric ideology. How can one be a truthful, upstanding person if they reach their means through lies and deception? Obi-Wan promised to train Anakin and he did just that. He lived with regret and guilt eating away at him for years, blaming himself for what Anakin became.
