I hope you my version of the Game is good. If you notice anything weird or something that doesn't make sense, please let me know so I can correct it. I spent days making before starting this story.
By the way, if you happen to know some good Jedi that predates the current era, can you let me know. I'm open to Legends mainly as well as the so-called Canon.
Hope you enjoy.
Chapter 1
Luke stares at himself in the mirror. He couldn't help studying his face, to see if there is anything that seems different, something that screams that he is no longer a boy but a man. Yet all his eyes can see is his own normal reflection.
Luke couldn't help but sighs at his foolish hopes as he turns away from the mirror and makes his way to his room.
Today is Luke's 16th Lifeday, and he had so much fun today. Though it fell on the same day as Empire Day, his Uncle Owen made sure it was base all-around Luke.
Luke smiles as he recollects today event. The moment he came out his from and whisked away from the farm, by his uncle to his friend, Biggs. Luke was forced to spend the whole day with Biggs and the gang celebrating at their usual hangout. Though the part Luke enjoyed the most was when he arrived home. Luke was surprised with a cake and a festive evening with his guardians.
'Well it seems I need to make Uncle Owen's Lifeday seem more special,' thought Luke as he remembers his uncle's blushing face as Aunt Beru teasing him for having a "fun" side.
Luke looks over the gifts he received throughout the day; a new bracelet from Camie and Fixer, a new tool kit from Biggs, and a new latest game Battle Mace 42 Million from his guardians.
Luke is really grateful for today; he even secretly wishes for everyday to be like this. However what Luke really wants is for Uncle Owen's blessing to leave and see the galaxy like his Father, Anakin.
'If I can find a trace of Dad, then maybe I can learn who he is, who is my mother, how did they and what has happened to them.' thought Luke. He feels that his fate is not here on the farm, despite how much Owen believes it to be.
"No, my fate is amongst the stars," Luke says quietly in his room, "And some someday, I will learn of my family and maybe even find my own."
Ping!
'Hm?' Thought Luke as he wonders where that noise is from. Just as Luke moves, a blue screen appears in front of his eyes.
Luke yelps as he jumps back. He couldn't help noticing that the screen moves with him as he moved. Luke quickly moves around, yet no matter what the screen stays in his line of sight. Luke notice that while everything else moves, the screen does not move, its frozen in his sights as though it is projected in his eye.
Luke feels a fear shiver through his spine at the idea. If that is true, then what can it do to him, who did it to him and what do they want with him?
With all of these thoughts in his mind, Luke gulps before reading what is on the screen.
Welcome to Star Wars Game Edition.
Think "Continue" to start!
Luke simply stares at the screen as his mouth slowly opens in shock. Just as he finishes reading, he couldn't help but read it again and then again and once more for luck. Yet the words stayed the same as it waits for the host to respond.
Luke closes his eyes with a simple thought and acceptance.
'I've gone insane.'
With that, Luke open his eyes before getting ready for bed.
'Hopefully, I turn sane tomorrow,' thought Luke as he closes his eyes while laying bed. Yet it seems that the system had another idea as the text appears once more despite his eyes are closed.
Welcome to Star Wars Game Edition.
Think "Continue" to start!
With a snarl, Luke opens his eyes to the infernal text hovering before getting up.
'Continue,' thought Luke as he sees the text changes
Presented to you by Qui-Gon Jinn and Darth Plagueis.
Designed by Qui-Gon Jinn and Darth Plagueis.
Written by Qui-Gon Jinn and Darth Plagueis.
Happy 16th Lifeday Luke!
"Continue"!
"Who is Qui-Gon and Darth Plagueis?" Asks Luke as he looks at the names of the creators.
'Darth isn't that the name of Darth Vader, the Emperor's right-hand man,' thought Luke as he looks at the name.
With questions building up and yet no answers for them, Luke thinks "Continue".
Welcome to your Status page. Take a look and once you are ready, the system shall explain each feature.
Name: Luke Skywalker
Title: Moisture Farmer
Class: None
Level: 1
Exp: 0/100
Health: 100
Stamina: 100
Force: 500
Description: Luke Skywalker is the son of Anakin Skywalker and ?. Like Anakin, Luke has inherited his love for the stars, piloting, mechanics and a powerful connection to the Force. Luke currently lives in Tatooine with his stepfamily. Luke hopes to one day leave Tatooine and look for his father amongst the stars.
Options:
Stats - Force Alignment - Pets - Abilities - Quests - Inventory - Equipment - Relationships - Reputation
Staring in amazement Luke couldn't help but let his mouth fall down again. While Luke stares at the screen in amazement, the system decides to move on.
The "Name" is well, your name. Unless you wish for it to change, you will be always referred as Luke Skywalker.
"Title" is a name to describe your current occupation or a certain nickname that relates to you. "Title" will give you a passive and/or boost to your stats and abilities. It is possible to change it, by completing certain quests or by doing a certain action that deems it appropriate for a title.
"Class" is your combat area of expertise. Player can collect multiple classes and learn "Abilities" from them. However certain "Abilities" can be only used in from the "Class". Other than that, other "Abilities" can be used while in other classes.
"Level" is your current overall power. You can "Level" up by collecting enough Exp. "Level" also applies to your "Abilities" as well and their overall power.
"Exp" is short for Experience. You can collect this by completing quests, defeating enemies, and more.
"Health" is your Health Bar. If it hits 0 then it is Game-Over. You do not restart, you're dead.
"Stamina" is your Stamina bar. Certain actions such as Sprinting requires Stamina to use. Stamina is needed to perform guard blocks or to repel stamina. Low Stamina means you cannot use certain actions until it refills, thus leaving you vulnerable.
"Force" is your Force Bar. Using Force Abilities requires the Force. Like Stamina, it will regenerate slowly after performing a Force Ability.
Luke reads the text and re-reads it just to be sure he hasn't missed anything. He stares especially hard at the last bit of text.
'The Force? Isn't that the dangerous religion the Jedi practice and preach about?' Thought Luke as he feels dread builds up. He knows that the Empire doesn't tolerate Force-users in general and has a rather strict rules concerning them. If the Empire learns of him then he will suffer a terrible fate.
The system seems ignorant of Luke's dread as it continues its explanation.

Luke stares at the text as reads through the dense information. As he reads through it, he couldn't help but notice a pattern.
'Most of these features are interlinked. If I do something to benefit one area it can benefit others that it links to.' thought Luke as his gaming instincts starts to take over. He couldn't help it as the descriptions is similar to certain games he has played in the past. However, something he notice is that the designers have made sure that the features tare still binding him to the physical law.
Luke couldn't help but appreciate it a bit for having the game seem really realistic. Sure, dying is bad, but it can be worse if people find out about him fleeing from the afterlife.
"I have gone insane if I start to appreciate it," groans Luke as he rubs his head in though in pain. "Ah to krif with it, I'm going to sleep. Hopefully it will all be a dream. Or a spice for I care."
With that said, Luke shuts the text down and goes to sleep, hoping for tomorrow to see if it is all a dream.
Yet somewhere in his mind, he couldn't help but think that if it is true, then maybe it is a sign that he acts on his dream.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Just to let you know, Luke will not have Gamer Mind or Body. The reason is that its a hack!
Gamer Mind is something all Sith will be against as it keeps the player calm.
Until next time, and May the Force be with you.
