HISTORY: Wiki link

PERSONALITY: Luke is, at this point in his story, still very much a callow youth. He's not as inexperienced as he once was and three years of war, fighting and adventures have left him a bit wiser and a bit more knowledgeable about the galaxy at large. However, he's still a young man in the midst of a great adventure and quite a lot of the bravado that comes with that has remained with him. He's young, after all – only twenty-one. Old enough to buy a beer in the modern U.S., but still a college student, essentially.

Luke is headstrong, stubborn, brave and a good person at heart. This means that he tends to jump without looking at what he might be getting into. He's a hero or acts like one. Like most young men, he thinks of himself as invincible and this adds to his penchant for getting in over his head or being reckless. He tends to act, regardless of his own personal safety and he won't hesitate to throw himself into the line of fire to fight for what he thinks is right or for a friend or simply to achieve an objective. While this means he takes risks, those risks have usually paid off. So far, anyway.

At this point in his life, Luke is also impatient. This, again, contributes to his impulsiveness and a tendency to leap before looking. It also means he tends to get frustrated easily, especially if things don't go right immediately and he's quick to anger or rise to a challenge (making him somewhat foolhardy). This usually lands him trouble, like his disregard for personal safety. It also means he won't wait around that long for a plan – if he sees an opportunity, he'll take it and if he thinks he's needed, he'll run off, even if others council against it. This tends to combine with his own disregard for personal safety and his physical bravery in a rather unhealthy combination. Although he hasn't been too seriously hurt (yet), it's probably only a matter of time before he lands in something that's going to end up making him bleed. Badly.

He tends to be a bit naïve as well. Not as much as he used to be, naturally, but he still tends to take people and things at face value and could probably be fooled by a convincing enough lie. Like Yoda. When the Jedi Master showed up at his camp, acting like a crazy old hermit, Luke dismissed him as just that, thinking that Yoda would be a great Jedi warrior. When that turned out to not be the case, Luke was just as quick to turn around and beg for training from the old master.

He's also not incredibly experienced in terms of romance. He gets a bit flustered around aggressive women (or women who he's interested in) and at heart, he's still a bit of a gawkish farmboy when it comes to that sort of thing. Hasn't stopped him from having a few dalliances or love interests, but it's just not something he's had much time to experience or think about.

Further, he's just a fundamentally good person at heart. He believes in freedom for the galaxy, preserving life and helping people out. He'll jump in without hesitation to save someone in distress or to help someone who really needs it. He earnestly believes in defeating the oppressive Empire and has risked his life on more than one occasion to help bring it down. He's also slefless enough to risk his life for his friends and people he might not even know.

Luke's also loyal to a fault. He'll back his friends up almost to the bitter end, although this doesn't mean he won't argue with them or get in disagreements either.

He tends to be charismatic, in a boyish, charming sort of way. He's an officer in the Alliance and he's led troops into combat before. He's served as the leader of Rogue Squadron, a group of elite pilots, and he actually has the rank of commander. He's a trusted, valued member of the Alliance.
CRAU: N/A

SPECIES: Human
APPEARANCE: LINKS ONLY
SKILLS:

NEW POWER: Astral projection; the ability to project an image of one's self to another location and also perceive and interact with that location (to a limited extent); this will initially take the form of being able to perhaps visit a familiar place or some place very close by (say, within the same room or the next room over) and be of limited duration.
POWER REASONING: Luke wants to be able to be in the right place at the right time to protect people; this is a way of doing that and of being able to extend his reach. Albeit limited, of course.
