Of all the prominent figures engaged in the Rebellion, none has changed as much as Luke Skywalker . When his journey began ,he was a simple young man llvtng on a moisture farm on the desert world Tatooine. Now, he is the first of what will hopelully be a new line of Jedi Knights, and carries more responsibility on his young shoulders than any one man should have to. The secrets he uncovered about his past both revealed to him his destiny and burdened him with a fear that he would one day succumb to the power of the dark side. He began as an idealistic dreamer and Quickly matured into a responsible leader, despite the personal hardships that he endured throughout the years. As a youth, Luke was always a dreamer. Though his body toiled on the Lars' farm on Tatooine, his mind wandered the stars longing for the day he could find adventure. For Luke, the adventure began innocently enough, with the purchase of two used droids from Jawa scavengers. But C-3PO and R2-D2 were far more than they seemed. The property of the Royal House of Alderaan, they were bearing a plea for help aimed at the reclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi. One of the few surviving Jedi Knights, Kenobi had gone into hiding on Tatooine to escape the Empire and to secretly observe young Luke Skywalker, who Kenobi believed would one day restore the Jedi and defeat the Empire. In an effort to deliver the message, R2-D2 escaped the confines of the Lars farm. When Luke finally caught up with the stubborn astromech, Tusken Raiders attacked the young man. Luckily for Luke, Obi-Wan appeared, scaring away the Sand People, and opening Luke's mind to the Force. Young Skywalker discovered that Kenobi knew him well, and had known of his father. Anakin Skywalker had been a trusted friend of Kenobt's, a comrade in the Clone Wars. Anakin had been betrayed and murdered by Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith -or so Kenobi said. Luke would not find out the truth about his father for some time. Finally, Kenobi presented Luke with a gift that would serve him well: his father's lightsaber. Before Luke could ask all the questions that filled his mind, R2-D2 played its message for Kenobi. In it, Princess Leia revealed that the Rebels had obtained the plans for the Empire's new secret weapon, and begged Kenobi to deliver them to her father on AIderaan. Kenobi immediately prepared to leave, and asked Luke's aid on the journey.

Luke hesitated. Perhaps he sensed what taking this step would mean, or perhaps he simply shared humanity's greatest fear, that of the unknown. But in one of those ironic twists of fate, stormtroopers searching for the droids slew Luke's uncle and aunt and destroyed their farm. Skywalker's decision had been made for him, and on that day, the fate of the Empire was sealed. To escape from Tatooine, Luke, Obi-Wan, and the droids employed a notorious Corellian smuggler, Han Solo, and his Wookiee copilot, Chewbacca. It was a meeting that would change all their lives forever. Meanwhile, Princess Leia, a captive on the Emperor's massive Death Star battle station, was forced to watch the destruction of her homeworld, Alderaan. Time was rapidly running out for the Rebellion. Despite the coup of stealing the plans for the Death Star, it was beginning to look as if they would never be put to effective use. Luke and his newfound comrades arrived too late to save Alderaan, but Leia Organa came to owe her life to them. While Obi-Wan fought Darth Vader, Han and Luke pulled off a daring rescue and escaped from the station. Upon bringing the Princess to Yavin, Luke found himself thrust into a key role in the Rebellion. There was little time for reflection or doubt. All of that had to be put aside in favor of action. Luke's experience with racing his T-16 skyhopper through the dangerous Beggar's Canyon served him well as he first jumped into the cockpit of his X-Wing fighter. Luke was but one of several green pilots who volunteered for the assault on the Death Star. As Han Solo pointed out, the attack wasn't a matter of bravery or courage, but for all intents and purposes, suicide. In the end, it was Luke who fired the nearly impossible shot that destroyed the super weapon and dealt a stunning blow to the Empire.

Luke, Solo, and the others were now wanted criminals with prices on their heads. There could be no turning away from their destinies now. Of course, not even the greatest pilot could have made such a shot unaided. LukeSkywalker had the inherent ability to use the Force, supplemented by some training by Kenobi. It was that which made it possible for him to hit a target the Rebels' finest fighter pilots had missed, even with the assistance of targeting computers. Luke is quick to point out that much of the credit belongs to Solo, whose timely appearance in the battIe allowed Skywalker to achieve his goal. The name Skywalker had come to mean many things to many people. Not too long ago, it had been nearly forgotten, however, linked only to the memory of an old hero who fought in a forgotten war, ages past. But the Emperor had never forgotten the power of that name, and so diverted an entire fleet, under the command of Lord Vader, with orders to capture Luke at any cost. After the Battle of Yavin, Luke and his friends eventually traveled to the frozen planet Hoth. Luke's initial scouting report turned up a suitable location for a Rebel base. Early patrols by the Alliance, however, showed how dangerous this frontier world could be. Han and Luke had a brief run-in with a creature they termed a "dragon-slug" near the planet's equator, far from Echo Base. Later, a vicious Wampa ice creature attacked the young Rebel and dragged him to its lair. To date, Luke has been quiet about how he escaped the lair and his time exposed to the harsh elements of the ice planet. Again, it was Han Solo who saved the future Jedi Knight. Little did Solo know that he would desperately need Luke to return the favor in a very short time. The legend of Luke Skywalker grew considerably due to his exploits during the assault on Hoth. The frontline Rebel troops witnessed Commander Skywalker single-handedly bring down an Imperial All Terrain Armored Transport. The valiant holding action fought by the Rebels against AT-AT walkers and Imperial snowtroopers allowed the bulk of the Alliance forces to escape the planet. Luke mysteriously disappeared after that battle. Luke's activities prior to his journey to Cloud City on Bespin have only recently come to light. He traveled to the swamp world of Dagobah, where he encountered the Jedi Master known as Yoda. It was here, under his tutelage, that Luke began to master the ways of the Force. It was also here that he learned of the temptation of the dark side, a battle he would have to fight every day of his life. Before he could complete his training, however, his sensitivity to the Force revealed to him that Leia, Han, and Chewbacca were in danger. For him, there was no choice: he had to save his friends. It must be remembered that Luke was s till lar gely unt ested. It should thus come as no surpr ise th at he so blindly walked into the Imper ial trap on Cloud City. Darth Vader had come to understand his foe well, and knew th at love for his friends was his weakness. The Dark Lord of th e Sith planned to use th at wea kness to deliver th e boy to th e Emperor-s-or perhaps, as some have suggested, to brin g Luke over to th e dark side, slay th e Emperor, and take th e Empire as father an d so n. Beneath the polished s pires of Cloud City, far dow n in the bowels of th e floatin g metropolis, Luke Skywalker at last co nfro nted Vader. Using eve ry bit of power he possessed . Luke escaped the carbon-freeze tr ap Vade r had set. In wha t was an e pic cla sh of flashing Iight s abers , reminiscent of th e gre at e ra of th e Jedi Knight s , Luke was finally, painfull y defeat ed . Skywalker lost bo th his hand and his light sa ber in th at deadl y batt le. It was a lso during this battle that Vade r first cla imed to be Luke's fath er-it would be some tim e before the effects this reve latio n ha d on Luke's psyche would become appare nt. While he failed to save Han , Luke's ac tio ns-and those of Lando Calr iss ian-enabled Lela,Chewbacca, and th e droids to escape in the Millennium Falcon. In fact , it was Leia who received Luke's telepathic ca ll for help and br ou ght the Falcon around to rescu e him . Solo, meanwhile, encased in carbo nite, was on his way to Jabba th e Hutt.
