Luke Skywalker (in EU) fan club!!!!

This is a thread dedicated to Luke Skywalker, the first of the new Jedi Knights. Please feel free to post pictures, links and all that other "Luke related" stuff here.

 

I started this up because I thought it was wrong for Luke to be denied his own fan club on the EU threads, after all he's as big a part of EU as some of the other characters and lacking a fan club here so here it is

 

I'll sign up here!

 

Finally Luke has his own club.

I have to say he is my all time fav character and I hope to see a lot more of him in the NJO than we have done so far.

 

I'd definately like to see him heft that lightsaber more often! Since he's on the cover of SBS maybe he'll be in the middle of the action once more, though, as Yoda would say "a Jedi craves not these things" still I think it's high time Luke got off his butt and kicked some Vong! Like in Onslaught....now that was cool, until he got all tired

 

Yes! It has started! Luke Skywalker rocks! He and Mara deserves each other.

 

He's one of the gretest hero ever,and for those who like to know and view more about him,here are some nice Luke websites! Enjoy

LUKE!!

Yeah we want to see Luke in action.About 40 isn't that old!!!

 

signing in.

Luke has always been my favorite character and I'm disgusted with the way he's being portrayed in the NJO. DelRey, please give Luke the respect he deserves.

 

Jedi Master or not, he's human and he should show a little more emotion then just that annoyingly calmness he has in the NJO

 

Here's a nice picture of Luke in his famous days

I'll add more tomorrow,and try to find a good bio and a poll!

 

Here's a cool story I read about Luke and Mara, it's an alternative Phantom Menace, great story IMO, check it out if you've got the time.

I agree Luke should show a little more emotion, though it is cool to see him unflinching when and enemy is threatning him. Still I would like to read about why Luke is acting the way he is, exploring his emotions and everything.

Here's a question. What is, in your opinion, Luke's best fight scene in EU?

I'm not sure about the best...he's had some awesome ones, but for NJO I'd say when he rescued Jacen from the Vong camp. Coarse he hasn't faught that much in NJO For the rest of EU.......his fight with the Ssi-Ruuvi (sp) in Truce at Bakura was neat, when he busts in and saves Corran's butt in I,Jedi...that was cool and I liked when he faught Kueller in A New Rebellion...even though he was injured.

 

Well I agree with you Tallie, Luke in Truce At Bakura and Shadows of the Empire. His best lightsabre duel in the EU would be in TLC and in the NJO would be rescuing Jacen.

 

I like the part in Hot when he escapes from the Jedi trap.

 

I cant remember what book its from but I liked the scene where he has to escape from some smugglers, wait I think it was from VoTF.

 

Forgive me for my stupidity but what is HoT?

 

Hand of Thrawn duology.

 

Oh! Okay, I've never heard of that term being used before. But yeah, Luke escaping the trap was a good one too.

 

This is a new thread and I'm not about to let it slip to the bottom! You have to give Luke credit, I mean he's a barely half trained Jedi Knight turned Jedi Master who saved the galaxy from the Empire ( sort of ) and brought back the Jedi. That's a lot for one man!

 

I'm in! I'llget something Luke-related tomorrow.

 

Well how about we start off a conversation? What insight did Luke make about the Force through out the series that you agree with the most? I mean, Luke's made a couple of them and a few of them are still different. I agree with Luke in tCoPL when he says its the intent that defines our actions, whether they're good or not. ( Well he said something like that! )

 

Hi guys Only a short visit,got alot of homework!
Will comeback as soon as possible,and check out the post.
Oh will post the bio of Luke though.I don't have the time to make one myself,so I've stolen it from the Force.net Unofficial Encyclopedia,sorry!!

Skywalker, Luke
Luke is the son of Anakin Skywalker, and the twin brother to Princess Leia Organa. He was separated from his sister just after their birth, in order to conceal his potential Force-sensitivity from the Emperor and Darth Vader. He was hidden on the planet Tatooine by Obi-Wan Kenobi, and lived his early years under the watchful eyes of Owen and Beru Lars. Luke was an eager boy, and was always flying his T-16 skyhopper in the canyons near his home while dreaming of being a starpilot at the Academy. Known as Wormie by his friends, he was a reckless youth whose best friend was Biggs Darklighter. When Biggs went off to the Academy, and later the Alliance, Luke felt that he was being mistreated by his Uncle, who annually refused to allow Luke to enroll. Fate and fortune intervened, however, when Owen purchased two well-worn droids named Artoo-Detoo and See-Threepio. With their purchase, Luke was catapulted into the midst of the Alliance. Obi-Wan Kenobi began to instruct Luke in the use of The Force. Luke then rescued Princess Leia from the first Death Star with the help of Han Solo. Following Kenobi's death, Luke destroyed the Death Star by calling on The Force. Later, Luke was visited by Kenobi's spirit, and directed to the planet Dagobah, where Luke trained under the Jedi Master Yoda. Following Yoda's death, Luke became the last of the Jedi Knights. He used his new-found strength to defeat Emperor Palpatine and turn Darth Vader from the Dark Side of the Force, returning Anakin Skywalker to the Light Side. In the years following the formation of the New Republic, Luke was instrumental in the New Republic's defeat of the Ssi-ruuk, the reborn Palpatine, as well as Imperial Admirals Thrawn and Daala. Luke continued his training on his own, and eventually became a Jedi Master. He set up a new Jedi Academy on Yavin's fourth moon, and began teaching the ways of The Force to a new set of Jedi Knights. During the period following the revelations of the partial Caamas Document found on Wayland, Luke travelled to Nirauan to search for Mara Jade. Mara was reported missing and out of touch, after tracing the paths of several unusual starships. They discovered the Hand of Thrawn complex, and managed to eliminate any potential threat it held to the New Republic. During their escape, Luke and Mara worked together with the Force, and both were opened up to the other's inner thoughts and feelings. This deepened and strengthened their relationship to a point that neither could ignore. Just before leaving Nirauan, Luke proposed to Mara. She agreed, and they were married, first in a solemn ceremony performed by Kam Solusar and witnessed only by the Jedi, and later in a public ceremony when they returned to Coruscant. Luke and Mara then left the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 in the hands of the new Jedi Knights and travelled the galaxy teaching potential Jedi about the ways of the Force. Luke proposed to the New Republic that a new Jedi Council be established, but many members of the Senate feared that the Jedi would become too powerful. Shortly afterward, Luke and Mara were forced to bring the Jedi into battle when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. Despite their ties to the Force, the Jedi were unable to defeat the alien invaders. Several Jedi, led by Kyp Durron, struck out on their own to fight the battle their own way, much to Luke?s dismay and to the consternation of the Senate. However, even in battle, Luke was surprised to find that Mara was pregnant with a son.

That was a good one the last sentence
