Luke Skywalker

A
== Biography ==
=== Pre-birth ===
During the Clone Wars, Jedi Grand Master Yoda set out on a journey to discover the secrets of immortality, having been contacted by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn following his death. His journey eventually led him to Moraband, the ancient Sith homeworld, where he faced visions of the future. At the end of his journey, the Force Priestess, Serenity, who guided his journey told him that there was another Skywalker, and Yoda heard his voice from the future say so as well. These events alluded to the birth and destiny of Luke Skywalker, as well as his twin sister Leia.
=== Early life ===
==== Birth ====
Luke Skywalker was born in 19 BBY on the asteroid field of Polis Massa two days after the proclamation of the Galactic Empire. He and his twin sister, Leia, who was born shortly after him, were the children of Galactic Republic Senator Padmé Amidala, who died shortly after the births, and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, who had recently fallen to the dark side of the Force. To protect the children from the Empire and their father, the now-Sith Lord Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi personally sent the infant Luke to be raised by Anakin's stepbrother, Owen Lars and his wife, Beru on the planet Tatooine, while Senator Bail Organa agreed to adopt Leia together with his wife, the queen of Alderaan.
==== First years on the farm ====
Luke Skywalker spent his youth on the Lars' moisture farm, where his uncle unsuccessfully tried to discourage his adventurous tendencies, telling him that his father had been "a navigator on a spice freighter" during the Clone Wars. His aunt, Beru, would read him storybooks; one day, when his uncle had business in Mos Eisley, she took Skywalker to Anchorhead to use the HoloNet connections there and show him images of forests, rivers, and oceans.
==== Brushes with Kenobi ====
At some point in 9 BBY, a Jedi survivor named Nari had arrived on Tatooine in search of Kenobi. Upon discovering this, the Galactic Empire dispatched members of the Inquisitorius, a group of Force-sensitive enforcers tasked primarily with hunting down surviving Jedi, to locate Nari. Around this time, Skywalker assisted his uncle with chores on the moisture farm. The boy soon ran behind the homestead and equipped a pair of goggles, before climbing on a part of the roof and pretending to be a pilot. Upon realising he had disappeared, Owen called out to Skywalker, with Beru soon coming to check on them. Unbeknownst to Skywalker however, he was being monitored by Obi-Wan Kenobi via macrobinoculars, with Kenobi noticing Skywalker's desire for adventure, as well as the similarities he shared with his father during his youth. That evening, Kenobi approached the Lars homestead and left a toy model of a T-16 skyhopper by the front door for Skywalker to find.
After seeing it, Lars visited Kenobi at Anchorhead and returned the toy to him, fearing that it would bring out the boy's adventurous side. Lars asked Kenobi to stay away, stating that they didn't need anything from him. Kenobi stated that it was just a toy, with Lars responding that it was more than that. Kenobi told Lars that there was a whole galaxy for Skywalker to explore away from the farm, though Lars once again asked Kenobi to stay away, accusing Kenobi of only looking out for any potential signs of Force-sensitivity. With Anakin believed to be dead, Lars insisted that he would not allow Kenobi to make the same mistake twice, and asked him to leave Skywalker safely on the farm with his family. In that moment, the Third Sister, otherwise known ans Reva Sevander and the Fifth Brother, arrived in pursuit of Nari. Both were members of the Inquisitorius. Whilst demanding anybody with knowledge of a Jedi to step forward, the Third Sister noticed Lars, and sensed that he was hiding something. After a brief conversation, the Inquisitor held her lightsaber to Lars' neck and once again demanded information from the public, before the Fifth Brother intervened and ordered his peer to stand down. The whole time, Lars refused to reveal any information about Skywalker or Kenobi, for the safety of his nephew.
Eventually, Skywalker's sister was captured as a part of the Third Sister's plan to lure Kenobi out. While Kenobi was off-world, having been sent by Bail Organa to protect Leia, Kenobi received a transmission from Bail, who was worried that Kenobi had not communicated with him. Bail informed him that if Vader had learned of Skywalker and Leia's existence, or if he did not hear back from Kenobi, he would go to Tatooine to help Lars with Skywalker. After an Imperial attack on Jabiim, while Skywalker was sleeping at the Lars homestead, the holoprojector disk containing Bail's message was found by the former Inquisitor Reva Sevander who learned from it that Vader's son was on Tatooine in the care of someone named Owen, who she had met. As she started to pursue Skywalker, Kenobi sensed something was wrong in the Force.
Luke did some work on Owen's speeder and accidentally broke it, so he visited a mechanic with Lars to order a new belt for it. However, the former Third Sister, filled with rage towards Skywalker's father due to his involvement in the Great Jedi Purge, traveled to Tatooine with the hope that killing the younger Skywalker would bring her justice and act as revenge against Vader. Warned of Sevander's coming attack, Owen and Beru hid Luke inside their house and claimed that it was the Tuskens who were coming, but Sevander ultimately fought past the aunt and uncle. With Sevander in pursuit, Luke fled into the desert but was knocked out by a fall. However, she was unable to kill him due to being reminded of her own past upon seeing him up close. With Sevander returning the boy to Owen, Beru, and the suddenly-back Kenobi, who had drawn on the hope of what Luke and Leia were capable of to triumph over Vader on a barren moon before returning upon sensing that he was in danger, Luke was ushered back to the homestead by Owen and Beru. The following day, Kenobi stopped by to meet with Owen, who allowed Kenobi to finally meet the young Skywalker.

==== Further adventures ====
Eventually, Skywalker became an adventure-seeking youth who demonstrated his father's natural piloting skills, as well as a strong desire to leave Tatooine. When not helping his uncle, Skywalker would occasionally go bulls-eye womp rats, or go racing through the dangerous Beggar's Canyon in his T-16 skyhopper by the age of thirteen. He would also spend time at Tosche Station with his friends, such as Biggs Darklighter, Camie Marstrap, Laze Loneozner, Windy, and Deak; some of whom nicknamed him "Wormie." As more of Skywalker's friends left the planet to follow their dreams, he became increasingly frustrated that his uncle would not allow him to do the same, claiming that he still needed help with the farm. In truth, Owen was trying to prevent Skywalker from following in his father's footsteps.
In 2 BBY, the former Sith Lord Maul, who had a vendetta against Kenobi after being bisected at the torso during the Invasion of Naboo thirty years earlier, arrived on Tatooine in hopes of finally getting his revenge against the Jedi Master. Having used the Jedi Padawan Ezra Bridger to lead him to Kenobi, Maul managed to locate his rival, and attempted to provoke him into engaging in a duel. Kenobi only ignited his lightsaber upon Maul's realisation that he was on the planet to protect someone. Maul soon rushed in, attempting to kill Kenobi, before being defeated. During his final moments, Maul asked the Jedi Master if the person he was protecting was the Chosen One, to which Kenobi responded that he was. Maul then stated that the boy would avenge them, before passing away. The following morning, Skywalker was helping at the moisture farm when Beru called him inside. As Skywalker ran back to the house, he was watched in the distance by Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was riding a dewback. Over the course of his time on Tatooine, Kenobi had written a journal for Skywalker, with key information for his Jedi path, as well as stories of his own personal experiences. During his final days on the planet, he noted that he had often felt alone, but thanks to Skywalker, never truly was.

==== Joining the cause ====
===== Leaving Tatooine =====
In 0 BBY, Luke Skywalker was working on his family's moisture farm, repairing moisture vaporators with the help of a WED Treadwell repair droid. While at work, Skywalker spotted a distant battle in the skies over Tatooine, unaware that it was the Rebel starship Tantive IV being pursued by the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Devastator. Later, Skywalker headed to Tosche Station, where he met with his friends, among them a visiting and recently-graduated Biggs Darklighter. Skywalker excitedly shared what he had seen, but Darklighter was doubtful, claiming the ships were probably just sitting still in space. Following this, the two friends swapped stories, with Skywalker recounting his recent piloting ventures in Beggar's Canyon. Before they parted ways, Darklighter confided in Skywalker that he planned to defect from the Empire to join the Rebel Alliance Starfighter Corps, a revelation that left Skywalker shocked. Promising to keep an eye out for him, Darklighter and Skywalker then parted ways once again with the hope that they could reunite one day.
Soon after, Skywalker's life changed dramatically when his uncle purchased two droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, from a group of Jawas. Unbeknownst to the Lars family, the droids had narrowly escaped the battle that Skywalker had glimpsed previously, and R2-D2 carried critical information for the Rebel Alliance, including the plans to the Empire's new superweapon, the Death Star. While cleaning the droids, Skywalker accidentally activated part of a message from Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan, pleading for help from someone named "Obi-Wan Kenobi." R2-D2 later ran off, determined to find Kenobi, prompting Skywalker to chase after the droid, before he was attacked by Sand People in the Jundland Wastes. He was rescued by none other than Kenobi himself, who confirmed his identity as Obi-Wan Kenobi. At Kenobi’s home, the elderly hermit revealed that he had once been a Jedi Knight, fighting alongside Skywalker's father during the Clone Wars. He also told Skywalker that his father had been a Jedi, not a spice freighter navigator as he had been led to believe, and that he had been killed by Darth Vader. Kenobi then gave Luke his father's lightsaber, and they played the full message from Organa.
With the princess urging Kenobi to help her in her mission for the Rebel Alliance, Kenobi asked for Skywalker's help in delivering the Death Star plans to Alderaan and aiding the Rebellion, though the farmboy initially refused, feeling obligated to stay on the farm and help his uncle. However, when Skywalker discovered that Imperial stormtroopers had traced the droids to the Jawas and slaughtered them, he realised that his family was in danger. Skywalker rushed home, but tragically arrived to find that his aunt and uncle had been murdered by the Empire. Devastated and with nothing left to tie him to Tatooine, Skywalker decided to join Kenobi and help deliver the plans to the Rebel Alliance. They traveled to Mos Eisley, where they sought passage to Alderaan. In the infamous Chalmun's Cantina, Skywalker narrowly escaped a deadly encounter with the criminals Ponda Baba and Dr. Evazan, who threatened his life before Kenobi intervened, using his lightsaber to defend him by cutting off Baba's arm.
With the danger behind them, Skywalker and Kenobi found a pilot duo who were willing to take them to Alderaan: Han Solo, a Corellian smuggler, and his Wookiee co-pilot, Chewbacca. Although Skywalker initially balked at Solo's high price of ten thousand credits in advance, Kenobi negotiated a deal, offering two thousand upfront and fifteen thousand upon their arrival at Alderaan, which Solo happily agreed to. To help pay for the passage, Skywalker sold his landspeeder to a merchant named Wioslea. When Skywalker first saw Solo's ship, the Millennium Falcon, he was unimpressed, calling it "a piece of junk," though Solo assured him that it was a capable vessel. After evading Imperial stormtroopers who attempted to stop them, the group escaped Tatooine aboard the Falcon. During their journey, Kenobi began instructing Skywalker in the ways of the Force, using a training remote to teach him basic lightsaber techniques. Despite Solo's skepticism, dismissing the Force as a “hokey religion,” Skywalker managed to deflect blaster shots from the remote, even with his vision obscured, marking his first step into a larger world.
===== Death Star rescue =====
The lesson, however, was soon interrupted by their arrival in the Alderaan system and their discovery of the planet's destruction. They then spotted a patrolling TIE fighter and, upon following it, found that it was approaching what appeared to be a small moon, which turned out to be the Death Star. Caught by the Death Star's tractor beam, they were brought aboard the massive space station. Once on board, Luke and Han knocked two stormtroopers out and stole their armor, whereas Kenobi set out to deactivate the tractor beam. However, when R2-D2 discovered that Leia Organa was being held captive on the station, Skywalker insisted on rescuing her. Though Solo was reluctant to go marching into the detention block, Skywalker convinced him to go along with the rescue by claiming that he would get a significant reward for doing so. Using their stormtrooper guises, Skywalker and Solo convinced Chewbacca to pose as a prisoner and escorted him to Detention Block AA-23, where Organa was being held.
Though they were able to rescue Organa, their cover was blown and they had to jump into the garbage compactor in order to escape the pursuing Imperial forces. After Luke thrashed and struggled against the hold of the dianoga Omi, the group escaped the compactor and headed back to the Millennium Falcon, but not before avoiding more troopers. Though Skywalker and Organa were separated from Solo and Chewbacca, they were able to reunite with their companions, and the droids, in the hangar bay. Eventually, the group escaped the Death Star, but only after Kenobi sacrificed himself in a duel with Darth Vader. With Skywalker lost and confused, Organa offered some comfort for his grief. Despite the fact that they had escaped from the Death Star, a pursing TIE fighter patrol was on the verge of catching up to them, so at Solo's request, Skywalker manned one of the Millennium Falcon's quad laser cannons to eliminate the enemy fighters, with Skywalker managing to destroy two of them. Once the patrol was eliminated, they traveled to the hidden rebel base on Yavin 4, unaware that the Death Star was tracking them.

===== Time on Hoth =====
In 3 ABY, Skywalker and the Rogue Squadron were transferred to the Echo Base, a rebel base on the iced planet Hoth, where he participated in regular patrols of the frozen perimeter under the callsign Echo Three.
Some time later, while reconnoitring the surroundings of Echo Base on his tauntaun after Solo had departed back to the base, Skywalker was attacked by a wampa. After later regaining consciousness in its cave with his feet frozen to the ceiling, Skywalker called upon the Force to retrieve his weapon, before severing the wampas arm with his lightsaber and managing to escape. Skywalker ran through the icy wind, before he soon collapsed from exhaustion. Near death, he was met by the Force ghost of Kenobi, who told him to seek the teachings of Yoda in the Dagobah system, before he was rescued by Solo who had come in search of him.
Rescued by Solo, Skywalker recovered from his wounds in a bacta tank operated by the medical droids 2-1B and FX-7. However, Vader had located Echo Base with one of his probe droids and prepared an imminent attack on the recently-opened Alliance base, thus prompting the Alliance to evacuate the base at once. After bidding farewell to his friends, for the impending battle, Skywalker was to lead Rogue Squadron in an airspeeder. During the battle, Skywalker led his speeders against the walkers, ordering Rogue Squadron to pull the AT-ATs down with tow tables after realizing their armor could resist their blasters. Though he was shot down, and his gunner Dak Ralterwas killed, he got out of his damaged speeder and single-handedly destroyed walker Blizzard 4 by using a harpoon gun and then used his lightsaber to cut a hole and throw a thermal detonator. As Imperial forces breached the Rebels' defenses, the last Rebel transport departed, and Skywalker fled the planet aboard his X-wing with R2-D2.
