personality

SEXUALITY: Hetero
VISION: It's fun. Sure with romance is great and he enjoys wooing girls but a quick tumble is just as fun as a long relationship. He's fairly innocent (in what he's done not how many times) but would be up for exploring more but he'd always listen to what his partners were saying

Luke at this age has a lot of growing up to do and is much like his father was when he was younger. He was often quite impatient as well as impulsive when it came to his actions. While growing up with his Aunt and Uncle he had little time or interest in the workings of the moisture farm where they lived on Tatooine, instead looked forward to the future and all that it would bring - he dreamed of going to the Imperial Academy to learn to fly. He also often acted without thinking which got him in trouble a lot while growing up and would often fight with his relatives even if he knew deep down that they meant well.

All of his life, Luke has craved adventure and excitement, often putting himself in danger just so he can enjoy himself. He could often be found flying in the canyons, shooting some of the local wildlife with his friends and just generally getting up to all sorts of mischief. His skill at this sort of thing was to do with his ability to access the Force, not that he knew of it at the time.

It is probably not surprising that he can be quite stubborn at times. He hates being insulted in anyway and will argue until he is blue in the face. He also hates admitting defeat and will do all that he can to get himself out of a situation on top, no matter how sticky it is. This isn't all that surprising though given how impulsive his actions can be at times.

Luke can be fairly naive at times, often believing that there is always good in people no matter what, that they can be redeemed which is something he will never grow out of. He is also therefore fairly trusting though his instincts will sometimes warn him away from people - he was never that trusting of Ben Kenobi for instance though that was also to do with the local superstition surrounding him.

Luke, despite butting heads with his Aunt and Uncle a lot while growing up, is incredibly loyal to his friends and family and would do anything for them to the point that it will eventually be used against him numerous times over his life

force sensitive, excellent flier

STRENGTHS: loyal, trusting, a good flier, unable to ignore those in need of help, idealistic
WEAKNESSES: stubborn, fairly impatient, naive, bit of a dare devil, reckless, looks to the future and not the 'now'

Force Sensitive

Much like the rest of his family, Luke has a strong connection to the force which is the living presence inside all living things. At the moment he doesn't have much of an idea of what he is doing instead is more instinctual about it than knowledge based.

Excellent Pilot & Mechanic

Partly inherited skill, partly the force guiding him Luke is great at not only flying but fixing anything mechanical

history

Luke and Leia Skywalker were born to Padme Amidala on an asteroid in the Polis Massa in 19BBY at the very beginning of the Great Jedi Purge though unfortunately Padme died after giving birth to Leia. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda, the only two people present and the only two who knew about the children and what happened to them knew they both needed protection due to who their father was and their potential to use the Force. Due to this Yoda took Leia to Alderaan where she was adopted by Bail and Breha Organa while Obi-Wan took Luke to Tatooine to be raised by his family, Owen and Beru Lars where he took the name Ben and became a bit of a hermit where he watched Luke as he grew up.

For the first few years of Luke's life, he had nearly daily interaction with Ben but in the end that stopped when Owen voiced his displeasure at it, though Luke was too young to remember these visits. When he was six, he had the first instance of using the force when he told his Uncle where a screwdriver was. His uncle believed that the only way he could have known where it was, was if he had placed it there himself. That event taught him never to use the force for that purpose again though he, at the time had no idea what he had done.

For the most part his childhood was fairly uneventful. When he was ten he became lost in the sands of Tatooine during a sandstorm after he ran away from his Uncle when he refused to tell Luke anything about his father. It was during the storm that he met Annie, a young boy who he had much in common with. The two of them found a sand person and stole his gaffi stick before sheltering in a cave. Unfortunately they were driven out by womp rats where they encountered an astromech droid which they used to cause a flare. Instead of drawing attention of someone who could help them, they drew a Krayt dragon to them though the two of them eventually managed to defeat it. Not long after, Owen and a rescue party found him unconscious in the sands with no sign of Annie or the Krayt dragon.

A few years later when he was thirteen, Luke and his friend Windy Marstrap were trying to bullseye wamp rats in Beggar's Canyon when they crashed. Ben Kenobi, ended up saving them from a Krayt Dragon who cornered them while they were hiding out in a cave. This was the first or last time he did something like that as during his teenage years he developed a habit of racing his T-16 Skyhopper and land cruiser with little thought to his safety. He had easily inherited his father's flying talent and his talent at fixing mechanical things.

He and his friend Biggs Darklighter, both dreamed of leaving the planet and joining the Imperial Academy, something that Luke was envious of his friend when he managed to succeed in doing so though he was proud of his friend for achieving it nonetheless. It didn't help that more of his friends left the planet and his Uncle continue to deny him the chance to do so.

Luke and his Uncle had just purchased to droids when his life changed forever. He was trying to fix the astromech droid R2-D2 when it started to play a recording of someone asking a Obi-Wan Kenobi. Figuring out who he was, he and the droids ended up leaving Tatooine with Ben, Han and Chewbacca where they ended up at Aldeeraan to only discover it was destroyed by what turned out to be the Death Star which briefly captured them. During this part of their adventure they met and rescued Princess Leia. After her rescue they made their way to Yavin 4 where the Rebels were hidden and Luke signed up to become a pilot. It was due to his skills with the force and piloting skills he was able to destroy the Death Star but only with the help of Han and Chewie who returned at the last moment.
