# ARTSABERS — Character Category Build Brief
**Illustrating example:** *Anakin Skywalker* — the character spanning Padawan → Knight → Fall → Vader, arguably ARTSABERS’s most-featured character with hilts across all four canonical phases.
## Page purpose
A **character deep-dive**. Someone lands here because they want to see every hilt tied to a specific character + understand the arc. Reads as a character bio + timeline gallery, not a product list. The reader leaves knowing where in the character’s arc each hilt belongs.
## Section stack (top to bottom)
1. **Global chrome** — nav + promo bar.
2. **Breadcrumbs** — `Lightsabers ▸ By Character ▸ Anakin Skywalker`.
3. **Cinematic character hero** — full-bleed character-key-art photograph-brief placeholder (Anakin backlit, blue blade extended, sunset behind), 100vh, character name display headline “ANAKIN SKYWALKER”, era-arc phrase in eyebrow “PADAWAN · KNIGHT · CHOSEN ONE · FALLEN”. Primary CTA “Browse Anakin’s hilts” + ghost “Read the arc”.
4. **Character bio** — editorial split. LEFT: full-bleed character-portrait photograph-brief placeholder. RIGHT: three data blocks stacked — (1) `AFFILIATION · Jedi Order · Sith`, (2) `HOMEWORLD · Tatooine`, (3) `LIGHTSABER STYLE · Form V · Djem So aggressive`. Below the data, 2-paragraph editorial on the character’s saber philosophy + what made his hilts distinctive.
5. **The arc — timeline gallery** — full-width chapter strip. 4 horizontal bands stacked vertically, each band represents a phase. Each band shows: phase name display headline (`I. PADAWAN`, `II. KNIGHT`, `III. FALL`, `IV. VADER`), 1-2 sentence phase editorial, and the phase’s hilt(s) as a horizontal card row.
– Padawan phase: 1 hilt (Anakin AOTC / EP2).
– Knight phase: 2 hilts (Anakin Duelling Grade EP3 $459.99 real image, Anakin ROTS variant).
– Fall phase: 1 hilt (Anakin scarred/lava-forged variant).
– Vader phase: 2 hilts (Vader EP4 ANH, Vader EP6 ROTJ weathered — real image Luke-Skywalker-ROTJ-Weathered-Lightsaber-3.jpg placeholder for the Vader visual).
6. **Signature specs** — asymmetric spec-sheet block on carbon, comparing what’s distinctive about Anakin’s hilts as a family. LEFT title “Signature specs”. RIGHT columns: `EMITTER STYLE · Cylindrical machined chrome`, `GRIP MATERIAL · Ridged textured composite`, `SIGNATURE BLADE COLOUR · Sapphire blue`, `PREFERRED SOUND FONT · Duelling ignition v2`, `PREFERRED ELECTRONICS · Xenopixel V3 (mid-arc)`, `BLADE STYLE · Solid / Unstable at fall`. Dotted-leader between label and value.
7. **All Anakin hilts** — 3×2 grid of ALL hilts across all phases. 6 tiles total. Same product-card shape as homepage.
8. **Related characters** — 3-across strip of characters in Anakin’s orbit: Obi-Wan Kenobi (mentor), Padmé Amidala (partner), Emperor Palpatine (corruptor). Each tile: photograph-brief placeholder + character name + relationship phrase + CTA “See {character}’s sabers”.
9. **From Anakin’s collectors** — 3-across testimonials from customers who bought Anakin hilts, referencing specific SKUs. Same shape as homepage.
10. **The full Anakin collection** — full-width band on carbon. Big display “Six hilts across four canonical phases”, ghost CTA “See every Anakin variant”.
11. **Warm capture band** — MANDATORY.
12. **Footer**.
