All There in the Manual: The book explains how the legend of Luke spread in the Galaxy after his Heroic Sacrifice at the end of The Last Jedi, when the kids of Canto Bight's fathier stables are reenacting his exploits with makeshift toys. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: The entire premise of the book is that, except for the framing story, everything you're about to read is second-hand rumors at best. | |

Conspiracy Theorist | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_39ed1c8a | comment |
Conspiracy Theorist: Redy, the first story's titular "Myth Buster". Before launching into her version of the origin of Luke Skywalker (a.k.a. Luke Clodplodder) she warms them up with her discovery that Admiral Ackbar is a remote-operated droid. | |

Agent Scully | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_8658cd14 | comment |
Agent Scully: Lugubrius Mote, the Mole Flea of Kowak who aids Leia and Luke against Jabba, is an ardent skeptic of anything mystical, and possesses a "seeing is believing" mentality that leads her to dismiss The Force outright. | |

Doing In the Wizard | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_86d4f985 | comment |
Doing In the Wizard: Downplayed in that the Force is very much real, but Luke's legend has grown far beyond what he is actually capable of, and so some of the wildest stories were much more mundane. The story about his shooting down Star Destroyers with Force lightning was just an Imperial technician hallucinating, and him leading the Church Of The Force across a lake of fire (actually molten glass) was done by jury-rigged insulated boats. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In the third story, an elder Lew'elan quips to Luke: "I can only wish that someday you'll also be pestered by a student as persistent to learn what you do not wish to teach". Years later, Luke would meet such a student, Rey. | |

| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_a148f27b | comment |
Living Legend: Luke Skywalker, as you'd expect. He actually makes use of it in "The Starship Graveyard", when he convinces a bunch of scavengers to follow him to safety by revealing who he is. | |

Everyone Has Standards | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: Redy might be a dyed in the wool Conspiracy Theorist, but even she refuses to deny the genocide of Alderaan. She doesn't believe that the Death Star did it, rather that it was a less flashy bombing, but she also doesn't deny that it happened and that it was one of the worst crimes the Empire committed. | |

My Species Doth Protest Too Much | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_c8bea4ec | comment |
My Species Doth Protest Too Much: Hutts are mostly known throughout the galaxy for being gang leaders, criminals, and slavers. Teal escaped her own slavers because a kindly Hutt mechanic helped her stow away on a mining transport. | |

Self-Deprecation | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: Redy's story says that the narrative the Rebel Alliance cooked up (i.e. the plot of A New Hope) sounds too hackneyed and cliched to have actually happened, and names actual examples of dated special effects (Alderaan's destruction changing between editions, Ackbar's mouth not fitting his speech, the Death Star being a model) as "proof" those videos were faked. Luke finds it hilarious. | |

…But He Sounds Handsome | |
| The Legends of Luke Skywalker / int_d8afec40 | comment |
…But He Sounds Handsome: Downplayed in "The Myth Buster". Luke, in disguise as just another patron, doesn't actually contradict anything Redy says, just mentions that she's being a bit unfair on points. | |
