Luke Skywalker (The Star Wars)

Luke Skywalker was a Jedi General for the Aquilae, as well as one of the survivors of the Knights of the Sith's attack on the Jedi-Bendu. He was the mentor of Annikin Starkiller.

Biography
According to Vantos Coll, Luke Skywalker was the one who led the Jedi Rebellion and he was also First Bodyguard to the Emperor.

When the Aquilaean Council was debating whether they should go to war with the Empire, Skywalker, after sternly telling Count Sandage to sit down after the latter accused Skywalker and the other council members of being dreamers regarding mounting effective resistance against the Empire, told them that they need to reach a decision immediately due to the upcoming Imperial raid being far more than just a raid for resources, with him citing to Senator Nash that procrastination is a dangerous business while war is his business upon being told that war is a dangerous position.

He also inquired whether Tarkin had approved the defensive measures he requested. King Kayos conceded Luke's suggestion, but decided not to take further action until they found out more about what the Empire's plans were just as his sons Biggs and Windy rushed in to inform their father that Leia was leaving.

He was asked by his friend, Kane Starkiller to take his son, Annikin Starkiller, as his Padawan learner and teach him how to be a Jedi.

He later learned from Montross of the Space Fortress leaving the Anchorhead System and heading straight for Aquilae.

He later commanded Devil Squadron from Aquilae to attack the Space Fortress.

Personality and traits
Because of his being exposed to exotic elements, Skywalker possessed a weathered and cracked appearance, although it was set off by his piercing silver beard and dark, penetrating eyes. In addition, his overall physique gave him the appearance of someone within the age of sixty years, although he was in fact far older.

Behind the scenes
This incarnation of Luke Skywalker first appeared in the 1974 rough draft of Star Wars. In this story treatment, he was already an experienced Jedi (known at that time as a Jedi Bendu) and acted as the deuteragonist to the story. In the final version of the story, Luke Skywalker's main characterization was modeled more after Annakin Starkiller and was a desert farmboy from Tatooine and a Jedi in training, while the original version of Luke was used for Obi-Wan Kenobi.

However, in 2013, a comic book adaptation of George Lucas' rough draft by Dark Horse Comics, titled The Star Wars was announced. Although his role overall remained true to the rough draft screenplay, his introduction and dialogue had been edited slightly to take into account the differences between comic book and film formats. In the original rough draft, the door opened revealing Luke Skywalker just as Sandage was undergoing the rant about dreamers, causing Sandage to meekly sit down immediately. In the comic, Skywalker appeared just as Sandage was ranting and sternly ordered the count to sit down before addressing the council. Skywalker's design was cited by writer Jonathan W. Rinzler to have been modeled after Sterling Hayden and Alec Guiness (the latter of whom played Kenobi in the original trilogy) with a slightly more cropped beard.
