Although one of the most important people in the galaxy, Skywalker came from humble origins. He spent the first years of his life on Tatooine as a slave along with his mother. In 32 BBY, Skywalker met a Jedi by the name of Qui-Gon Jinn. Soon after, he joined the Jedi Order, becoming a Padawan to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Skywalker was believed to be the Chosen One of Jedi prophecy, one who would bring balance to The Force by destroying the Sith, which was why the Jedi Council chose to bend the Jedi Code and permit his training.
In 22 BBY, Skywalker was reunited with Padmé Amidala, the former queen of Naboo and new Senator of the Chommell Sector. They fell in love and married soon after the Battle of Geonosis, though the Jedi’s restrictions on personal attachment forced them to keep their marriage secret. Skywalker fought in the Clone Wars with his master and became a Jedi Knight in 20 BBY. Throughout the conflict, Skywalker became an icon to the public, known as the “Hero With No Fear”.
