Luke Skywalker (Star Wars)

is one of the main protagonists of the Star Wars franchise.
He is an incredible and powerful Jedi Knight who would grow up to be trained in the ways of the Force and defeat the Galactic Empire. He is the son of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala, the older twin brother of Leia Organa, the maternal uncle of Ben Solo, and the second Jedi Padawan of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda.
He is famously portrayed by (who is also well-known for playing numerous different versions of the iconic villain the Joker, and also voiced Corey Anders in Jeannie, Skeletor in Masters of the Universe: Revelation and Skips in Regular Show), as Aiden Barton played the character as an infant in Revenge of the Sith, Max Lloyd Jones physically played the character in The Mandalorian, and Grant Feely portrayed a younger version of the character in Obi-Wan Kenobi. 
==Personality==
Much like his father, Anakin, Luke is intelligent, wise, selfless, brave, prideful, impulsive, and loyal. He has a sense of justice, honor and good morals; of course, like his father, he is sometimes overconfident, short-tempered, hot-headed, aggressive, unpredictable, impatient, difficult, and emotionally insecure. He has the ability to see the good in others, and he is not a very good liar.
After losing his right hand to Darth Vader, Luke becomes far more calm, level-headed and patient. Despite the fact that he now has better control over his emotions and temper than his father, Luke still has his moments of losing his patience and temper. This was noticeable when Vader spoke of making Leia fall to the dark side, and Luke angrily bested him in their duel on the Death Star.
In the sequel series: Luke was reclusive and bitter after failing his pupil and nephew Ben Solo, and feeling that he had failed Leia too. Ben Solo was like his grandfather who seduced to the dark side by a resurrected Palpatine and name him Kylo Ren. Why Luke went into exile was because he wanted to die as the last of the Jedi, until he was confronted by Rey and later the spirit of Yoda. After his death and becoming a Force spirit, Luke became more of his old self, encouraging Rey to take up the mantel of the Jedi and confront Palpatine once and for all.

===Abilities===
*Lightsaber Skills: Despite his minimal level of training, Luke is highly skilled in lightsaber combat and he is an extremely gifted duelist. After only one brief session with Obi-Wan Kenobi, he was able to hold his own against Darth Vader, a far more experienced and powerful combatant all together, on three different occasions. In the first, though relatively short confrontation, his skill proved inadequate and he was defeated with ease. However, in the second fight, which took place roughly three years later, Luke had greatly improved his technique and he was able to hold his own for much of the duel, even managing to lightly wound Vader's right shoulder. Ultimately, however, Vader once again proved superior and Luke lost the fight, as well as his lightsaber and right hand. In their final duel on the second Death Star, Luke was finally able to overwhelm and defeat Vader, the greatest Jedi killer to ever live and one of the best swordsmen of all time, though he did this with extreme effort. With Yoda, Luke also uses his Force powers to not only to increase his physical speed and agility, but also to increase the speed of his attacks, to make his lightsaber combat skills more lethal in combat; this makes him a formidable opponent in single combat. Before he received much training, he relied on his Force sense and his reflexes to use the blade. Luke has studied Jedi and Banate Sith lightsaber tactics.
