Luke Skywalker

Son of Anakin and Amadala Skywalker, young Luke Skywalker was raised at a young age on the Planet of Tatooine on his Uncle Owin's Moisture Farm in the Dune Sea who's only dream was to escape the dusty planet and become a famous pilot. Sadly, that dream would not have come true if his Uncle did not purchase R2-D2 and C3PO from some Jawa's.

After that purchase, Luke's life changed forever as he ran into Obi-Wan Ben Kenobi in the Juundland Wastes looking for the Droids that had become lost, The one named R2 Claimed to have been owned by Obi-Wan and that it had a message for him.

Obi-Wan took Luke Skywalker to his home and revealed that his Father, Anakin Skywalker was a Jedi Knight and Luke too was strong with the Force. It also turned out the R2 Unit's message for Obi-Wan was the young Princess Leia of Alderaan, pleading the old Jedi to help her and the Rebel Alliance from the Empire and a plea of rescue.

Luke, ignoring Obi-Wan's pleas to come to Alderaan and train the ways of the force realised that the Galactic Empire would also be after the Droids and raced back to the Moisture Farm, only to discover that it had been burn to the ground along with the remains of his Aunt and Uncle. After that, Luke decided to follow the path of the Jedi Knight and escorted Ben and The Droids to Mos Eisley Spaceport to find a transport to take them off planet to Alderaan.

There in the Cantina after a brief fight with a Dr Ezavan and his friend Ponda Babaa, Obi-Wan met a Wookie Co-Pilot called Chewbacca who took them to meet his friend and Pilot of the Millenium Falcon, Han Solo.

Han Solo agreed to transport the two off planet to Aldeeran in exchange for a hefty amount of credits and soon they quickly departed under Imperial fire. When the Falcon jumped into Hyperspace to the Alderaan sector, they found nothing but Asteroid clusters and a lone TIE Fighter which they followed right into the Tractor Beam of the Galactic Empire's Superweapon, The Death Star.

On board, Luke and company hid and with a bit of cunning disguised themselves with Stormtrooper Uniforms with the plan to disarm the tractor beam and escape. R2-D2 discovered, while searching for the tractor beam location that Princess Leia was aboard the Death Star as a prisoner. Luke pursueded Han to rescue her, and using Chewbacca as a prisoner they got to the Cellblocks and contacted Leia.

Under fire from the now wise Stormtroopers, Leia led Han, Luke and Chewbacca into the trash Compacter where Luke was almost drowned by a diaognaa and where all of them were almost crushed.

While this was going on Obi-Wan snuck through the Death Star barely noticed by all except Darth Vader using the Force and disarmed the tractor beam.

Now back in there normal clothes, Luke and company almost were home free when they were ambushed by Stormtroopers. Luckily, after some close calls and firefights they managed to regroup and get to the Docking Bay where the Falcon waited. But when they got there, the Falcon was surrounded by Stormtroopers waiting for Darth Vader's inspection.

In a heroic bid of sacrifice, Obi-Wan faced his old Student with a duel distracting the Stormtroopers and allowing our hero's to escape and became one with the Force.

The Falcon went to the Main Rebel Base on Yavin IV, unaware that a tracking device had been planted and the Empire's Death Star was following the same route. When the hero's arrived at the Rebel Base, the Death Star plans were downloaded from R2-D2 and studied by General Jan Dondonna. It turned out there was a small weakness in the Death Star that can easily be exploited by a team of small snubfighters. Luke volunteered to be one of the Rebel Pilots and was fitted with a Pilot Suit and given an X-Wing. Luke also met an old friend, Biggs Darklighter who was also a Rebel Pilot.

Part of the 30 man Fighter team, Luke took part in the attack of the Death Star where he made a mark for himself several times as the battle went on. When the Rebel Fighters entered the Death Star's trench that lead to the exhaust port he was told by Obi Wan's spirit to 'Use the force'.

During the Rebel Trench Run, Luke was almost shot down by Darth Vader who was flying with the Imperial TIE Pilots against the Rebel Fighters in his personal TIE Advance. Luckily, at the last minute he was saved by Han Solo and Chewbacca in the Falcon who sent Darth Vader's TIE Advanced reeling into space.

Luke then fired the torpedo which when down the exhaust port and hit the main reactors which caused a chain reaction that led to the destruction of the Death Star. Afterwords, Luke was awared with the medal of honour aside Han and Chewbacca by Princess Leia.

A lot more will happen to Luke as time went by, and it's certain his name will be well known to more than just the Rebel Pilot...
