Beru Whitesun Lars

Canon Legends version → Linked from 179 articles

Beru Whitesun Lars, born Beru Whitesun, was a human female from the planet Tatooine. She was married to Owen Lars, the stepbrother of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One, whose son, Luke, they raised after his father turned to the dark side of the force and his mother died in childbirth.

In 1 BBY, the Lars family purchased two droids who, unbeknownst to them, possessed stolen plans for the Death Star, an Imperial planet-destroying battle station. Imperial stormtroopers tracked the droids to Lars' homestead, where they interrogated and murdered both her and her husband. When Skywalker discovered that his family had been killed, he left Tatooine with Kenobi to train as a Jedi, joining the Rebel Alliance and destroying the Death Star in the Battle of Yavin.
