Luke Skywalker
In the three years that followed, Luke became a commander and respected leader in the Rebellion, leading Rogue Squadron through a number of victories, and especially defending the evacuating Alliance in the Battle of Hoth. After the battle, he sought out the legendary Jedi Master Yoda for further training in the Force. His time with him was cut short, and Vader lured him out into a confrontation by using his friends as bait. It was during the resulting battle that Luke learned the truth: Darth Vader, second to the Emperor, was his father.
Short a hand and armed with that terrible knowledge, Luke tried desperately to come to terms with the fact he had been lied to. It was some time before he could finally acknowledge it, and after he set out to build his own lightsaber, bringing himself that much closer to Knighthood. Returning to Tatooine, he set out to rescue Han from Jabba the Hutt's clutches, succeeding in toppling the gangster's operation in one fell swoop. He returned to Yoda after, but the old Master was near death's door. He confirmed that Luke already knew everything he needed, and that Vader was indeed his father, as well as alluding to another Skywalker before passing on. Luke realized through his conversation with the spirit of Obi-Wan that Leia was his sister, before returning the Alliance in time for a mission to destroy the new Death Star. Luke immediately realized that he was endangering the ground mission to destroy the shield that was protecting the new battle station, as Vader could sense he was near, leading to him leaving the group to confront Vader. Brought to the Death Star to stand before the Emperor, Luke struggled against his anger as the old man kept throwing in his face that his friends were going to die. His anger eventually won out, resulting in an almost feral battle against his father. Eventually he realized that if he continued on this path, he would become just like his father, and instead he decided to let go of his hate and anger, announcing himself a Jedi like his father before him. The Emperor tried to kill him, but Vader stopped him, sacrificing his own life to save his son and throw the Emperor into a reactor shaft. Anakin Skywalker passed on shortly after, finally seeing his son's face with his own eyes before he did so.

deercountry, where he had been changed into a Paleblood upon entering. Luke remained largely out of the limelight of the main plot; his most notable interactions being offering Cloverfield an ear to listen to his loss, and when his patron Pthumerian — The Reckoning — drove him mad with the need to seek justice. The events he participated in were more personal, like his struggles to have a positive relationship with his father, and his more intimate relationships, of which he admitted he was an utter disaster at. Speaking of disasters, Luke nearly dragged all of Trench into a big one, when his need to find answers about why his father served Palpatine as he did led to the memories of the man attached to his father’s lightsaber possessing him. He was driven out into the world at large, but was eventually defeated by Maul and others.
Some of Luke's abilities in the Force can be broken down as follows:
physical attributes A small pair of wings (stretched out they’re about as long as his own arm span); the feathers are mostly white, but they have a green tint to them.
non-physical qualities TBD
reasoning Luke is quite literally the very definition of a Legend as written on the information page. He is the epitome of what is good and kind in the Star Wars universe; he’s always willing to help others, sometimes even to his detriment, and can always see the good in others, even if it’s hard to see at first. He’s shown this kindness in Deer County, and, not much will change in Folkmore: he’s always going to be willing to lend a hand, and will always reach out to others with kindness, even if they themselves don’t believe they deserve it.
History
Luke Skywalker is a near legendary revolutionary and Jedi Knight, serving in the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Growing up as a farmboy on the desolate world of Tatooine, Luke's destiny came knocking on his door in the form of two droids holding stolen data tapes to the Empire's new super weapon, the Death Star. After learning of his parentage and the Force from Obi-Wan Kenobi, they set out to return the droids to Alderaan, only to arrive too late and be drawn into the deadly battle station. Escaping with Princess Leia and Han Solo, Luke officially joined the Alliance and went on to destroy the Death Star.In the three years that followed, Luke became a commander and respected leader in the Rebellion, leading Rogue Squadron through a number of victories, and especially defending the evacuating Alliance in the Battle of Hoth.

Canon Abilities
The Force in Star Wars is an ever present energy that binds all life (and even some non-life) in the Galaxy together. Those that are sensitive to it are capable of amazing, almost superhuman feats that most other organics cannot hope to match. Luke's connection to it in particular is very strong, and much like his father, he is practically a flaming beacon of power to other Force sensitives.Some of Luke's abilities in the Force can be broken down as follows:
