History[]
Raised by his uncle and aunt, moisture farmers on the desert planet of Tatooine, Luke Skywalker didn't find out until aduthood that he was actually the son of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, and was destined to follow in his father's footsteps (at least until the point where his father had become an evil cyborg) and learn the secrets of The Force! Taken from Tatooine by Jedi Knight Ben Kenobi along with the droids C3PO and R2D2, Luke found himself on a space spanning mission to free the galaxy from the oppression of the Empire, as a member of the Rebel Alliance. His most daring achievement was the destruction of the dreaded Death Star, a planet killing space station. He also had a brief flirtation with his own twin sister, but we don't talk about that; anyway, he didn't know who she was at the time!
