    Uncle Owen won’t let him go down to Tosche Station with Biggs to look at power converters!

      Who is Uncle Owen anyways? Luke’s only family members are all royalty.

        After Anakin’s mom was freed she married a moisture farmer and had more kids (or the farmer already had them). So Uncle Owen is either Luke’s half-uncle or his step-uncle.

          Owen is the son of Cliegg Lars and another woman who died before Cliegg married Anakin’s mom. So he is Luke’s step-uncle.

          She was a freaking queen. That doesn’t sound right.

          Oh, you said Anakin’s mom. Wouldn’t that make Owen Luke’s step-grandfather?

          Edit 2: nvm, I got what you’re saying now. Anakin’s Mom’s kid is raising Luke. Gotcha.

            Padme’s Queen title was an elected one. She wasn’t royalty. She was a Senator after her term ended, and there was another Queen.

            Leah was adopted by a royal family, which is how she got the title of Princess. She also became a Senator.

            Are you thinking of Luke’s mom?

              Oh, yes. So Luke was raised by Anakin’s mom? Wouldn’t Anakin think to look there for him, or like, visit his mom sometimes?

              Edit: I thought his mom was killed by the Sand People.

                His mom’s brother? Who was a slave elsewhere and Anakin never knew him maybe? Or thought he was dead? Then the republic found him but Vader did not? I dunno
