 * Luke Skywalker lost his "parents" Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru to stormtroopers (the big bad)
 * He defeated a sith lord (the ape thing is just coincidence)
 * He's part, and sometimes the leader, of a ragtag team
 * He had a love interest in Leia (yeah, she's his sister, but George didn't even know that 'til he wrote Jedi) and eventually married Mara Jade, somebody who was his enemy before changing her mind
 * R2 and 3PO can be stand ins for Bentley

Heck, we could go further:


 * He acquired his signature weapon as a hand-me-down from his father
 * Both are the stars of beloved trilogies that, years later, got a polarizing sequel (Episode VII, as Luke wasn't in the prequels)
 * His mother was hardly ever mentioned (again, in the original trilogy)
 * The second entry of his adventure is often called the best in the series with a noticeably darker tone that ends with his friend being put physically out of commission
 * The first entry has him destroying a giant machine that fires deadly lasers (stretching a bit here)

Not trying to put a damper on your fan fictioning; I just don't understand it. just curious of the possible interactions between a master thief that steals from more powerful criminals and an ace pilot mercenary that saved an entire system from an empire ruled by a mad ape scientist. would they be allies or enemies
