Persistent vegetative state

Tay Vanis, reduced to a mindless shell after being tortured by Darth Vader.

"And if you turn me into a vegetable, you shoot me. Deal?"
"Deal."

―Arla Fett and Bardan Jusik

A persistent vegetative state was a condition of patients with severe brain damage in whom coma has progressed to a state of wakefulness without detectable awareness. A good example of this is the case of Tay Vanis, a rebel who, after being tortured by Darth Vader, was left in a vegetative state of mentality.
