(Not about to quote all that)

Yes, I knew full well that Anakin was an idiot (and for that matter, a douchebag), but I couldn't think of a better example at the time. I think part of the reason he was such a douche is because the whole "jedi destiny" thing got dropped on him too early and it went to his head.

In hindsight, Aang is a much better analogy. In fact, I sort of consider Ruby to be a female Aang. I doubt she would be quite as reluctant to accept a big responsibility as him, though.

And then there's the Master Chief, in the middle ground. He fully accepted his responsibility as leader of the Spartans with no complaint, but deep down inside, he resented many of the aspects of command. That's sort of how I envisioned Ruby, only she would be quite a bit more vocal about it.
