Biography[]
Raised on Tatooine[]
From early childhood, Luke was kept away from the secret that his father, former Jedi Knight and now Dark Lord of the Sith, Anakin Skywalker, now named Darth Vader, was the leader of the Galactic Empire. However, while he was on Tatooine, his father was brutally and mercilessly killed aboard the first Death Star by his own apprentice, Galen Marek, who would later become Luke's master after the Battle of Hoth.
Joining The Rebels (Escaping Tatooine)[]
About two years after his father's death at the hands of Starkiller, who was now known as Lord Starkiller, Luke joined Obi-Wan Kenobi to fly off-planet to get to Alderaan in order to hand his droid, R2-D2 over to Leia Organa, who is actually Luke's sister. They hired and paid smuggler Han Solo and his first mate, Chewbacca to fly their ship, the Millennium Falcon, to Alderaan.
However, when Skywalker, Solo, Chewbacca, C-3P0 and R2-D2 boarded the Falcon, Lord Starkiller entered and attempted to capture R2 for the Death Star plans, but Obi-Wan intervened, getting into a brutal duel with Starkiller, who ultimately killed Obi-Wan by stabbing him in the shoulder and throwing him into the Falcon's active engines. Just as the Falcon was taking off, Luke and the others seemed to escape, but Starkiller had planted a tracking device on the Falcon.
Battle of Hoth and Turning to the Dark Side[]
After two years of being trained in the Jedi ways by the spirit of the fallen Obi-Wan, Luke Skywalker became a efficient Jedi after two years of intense training. However, the Empire found the Rebels on the ice planet of Hoth, and a massive battle ensued, with giant AS-ATs attacking the Rebel Echo Base.
During the battle, Lord Starkiller managed to sneak into the base. Luke then went down to the base's tunnels to find hundreds of his Rebel comrades dead. He then saw Starkiller enter through the door, and Starkiller said "We meet at last... Son of Vader!" and Luke, remembering what Obi-Wan told him, says "You're wrong! My father was a Jedi! Vader murdered him." and Starkiller, chuckling in amusement at Luke's unknowing of his father's demise, says "So you have been told..." as he ignites his Lightsaber, and Luke charges at him, preparing for a vicious duel. The two opponents, both Luke and Starkiller, fought with huge ferocity and speed, with Luke keeping his defense. However, Luke was eventually defeated, but he retreated back to the base hanger, leaving Starkiller with a trio of Wampas.
However, just as Luke and the others were about to evacuate from the base, Starkiller entered and began cutting down several Rebel soldiers. However, Luke, desiring to protect his friends, force pushed the Dark Lord to the front gates of the base. Luke then closed the hangar doors behind him, approaching Starkiller and saying he would not run from his destiny, or from Starkiller himself.
