Death of Luke Skywalker:

900 by ROTJ - 23 years = 877.

k, yeah, i wasn't contradicting you, just was typing my answer before you posted.

o so he was old and still getting into fights yoda is a bad mutha****a

luke dies when:

George Lucas's inner artist wakes up, finds out what the rest of him has done, and forces him to commit seppuku. then the entire universe dies.

thats... depressing.

i guess this thread had already been done...

worth reading that link though, interesting the views from that many years back.

Breast cancer....

He probably shouldn't die in battle. I mean, the guy has been in more fights than basically everyone else in the series put together. Give the man a break lol.

The closest I've come to death (literally) is an incident involving liquor and Faunus's insatiable mom.

Perhaps Luke could go out in a similar fashion.

Ummm... Luke should go out as a celebrated hero of the galaxy, defending the Repubic/Confederacy/Galactic Alliance from the gretest threat to the galaxy has EVER seen, himself.

He should retire back to Tatooine as an old man, ready to live out the rest of his days in peace.

Then get killed by Tusken Raiders.

It should come full circle. He's killed by stormtroopers when they raid his Old Age home searching for the droids Ben Kenobi never let them find.

I'm still thinking breast cancer would be the warriors death he deserves.

Actually im up for three types of Death...

Number One : He gets killed in a Academy Training session by his son and the books follow Ben Skywalker through that troubling time..

Number Two - He gets Assassinated by a Rogue Jedi after chasing him down...of course he would be killed in a cowards fashion..like Mara was.

Number Three - He becomes so powerful in the force..that he just becomes one with the force without dieing. with him saying something to Ben like.... Do not fear my son...you are strong with the force and can take care of yourself now and you must take over the leadership of the Jedi Academy..... i cannot help you any longer..so now i must go... for i shall nowbecome one with the force...*Disappears*

Your #3's the most likely, and appropriate. Horrendously cheesy, but hey that's poor writing for you.

he could also say something along the lines of "i didn't really help you before anyway, because of fear of falling to the darkside, so it won't really be that much different without me, goodbye!"
