General Tropes[]

  • Anthropomorphic Personification: Of the light side, possibly.
  • Balance Between Good and Evil: According to a vision received by several Jedi, it's his destiny to become the immortal "One", representing the Light Side in the Skriver galaxy, fighting a Forever War with Vestara, who would eternally represent The Dark Side. He pulls of a Screw Destiny instead, even convincing Vestara not to drink from the Fountain of Power and defeating Abeloth without it.
  • Berserk Button: Insulting his parents will anger him greatly.
  • Black Cloak: He wears black a lot though thankfully, Dark Is Not Evil.
  • Chick Magnet: Certainly takes after his father for being attractive to several women and been in some relationships.
    • Luke: And when someone asks you to talk to her among the Trees of Imminent Doom?
    • Ben: I say yes, and close my eyes and pucker up for a big kiss.
    • Luke: There, that's the Skywalker survival instinct at work.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: Just like his father, he wears with an all-black costume.
  • Dating Catwoman: With Vestara,w which didn't last long.
  • Dead Guy Junior: He was named after Obi-Wan Kenobi, whom Luke knew as Ben.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Most of his conversations with his father and/or Vestara involve snark.
  • Fiery Redhead: He got it from his mother.
  • Genius Bruiser: He's both a Jedi Knight and highly intelligent.
  • Heroic Lineage:
  • Holy Hand Grenade: Uses an attack described like this, to punch a hole in Abeloth, in Apocalypse.
  • Laser Blade: Used a blue-bladed lightsaber.
  • Improbable Aiming Skills: The GAG Lieutenant Jori Lekauf instructed him on sniping with a modified Karpaki Fifty ballistic sniper rifle. In only a few hours Lekauf was able to make Skywalker into an efficient and deadly sniper.
  • Professional Killer: For one book, anyway; he has the skill, but not the temperament.
  • Runs in the Family:
  • Screw Destiny: He has torn down at least one prophecy about his future. Only time will tell.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Nearly all of his mannerisms and physical traits are inherited from his mother Mara. Also, various illustrations had him look much like his father, particularly during Legacy of the Force.
  • Super Mode: He does this just long enough to launch a Kamehame Hadoken that is explicitly stated to be capable of destroying a capital ship. Except unlike what Jacen did, this form isn't described as 'impossible to achieve again'.
  • Teen Genius: He was the youngest knight in the Order at fourteen...something not even his talented dead cousin could achieve.
