Cliegg Lars

*Homebrew Reference Book: Clone Wars Saga Edition Fan Sourcebook - Locals*

*Affiliations: White Suns*

The Lars family maintains a moisture farm on Tatooine, though Cliegg feels his destiny lies somewhere other than the giant dustball of Tatooine. Shortly after his fourteen year old brother dies in a speeder accident, Cliegg sets off for Ator. Amongst the urban sprawl, Cliegg falls in love with a woman named Aika, who dies shortly after giving birth to Cliegg's son, Owen Lars. Devastated once more by a tragic loss, Cliegg returns with Owen to Tatooine to reconnect with what family he had left. He makes a peace with his parents and takes over the day to day operation of the Moisture Farm, while his parents helped to raise young Owen.

A few years before the Clone Wars erupt, Cliegg meets a beautiful woman named Shmi Skywalker, a slave owned by Watto the junk dealer, and immediately falls in love with her spirit. Cliegg manages to save up enough credits to purchase her freedom, and the two are married shortly afterward. By this time Owen had grown into a young man, and had found a partner of his own in Beru Whitesun, and the Lars Moisture Farm became a much brighter, happier place.

Unfortunately, Tusken Raiders attack the Lars Farm and take Shmi prisoner; enraged, Cliegg brings his son and a handful of fellow farmers out on a hunting party to save his wife. After days of tracking them through the desert, and a violent battle that costs most of his right leg, Cliegg loses hope, and writes Shmi off for dead. Forced to get around in a small Hover Chair, the elderly gentleman is still mourning his loss a month after her capture when he is visited by her son, Anakin Skywalker.

Surprised at the visit, but thankful for the opportunity to tell the boy what happened to Shmi face to face, Cliegg explains his mother's fate. Unwilling to accept that Shmi had died, Cliegg watches the determined young man set out into the Jundland Wastes, only to return with Shmi's body a day later. Cliegg grieves at her funeral service, and never fully recovers. Shmi's death is the final straw, sapping Cliegg's will to live. He dies near the end of the Clone Wars from heart failure, leaving the Lars Moisture Farm to Owen and Beru.
