There are some important characters in current Star Wars canon that have been killed, whether on or off screen. Audiences have lost heroes they grew up with, like Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Leia Organa, and more. These iconic Star Wars characters have fallen, but in Star Wars Legends, their names live on in the stories given to the now non-canon universe. However, that did not mean that Star Wars Legends was without death, and there were some major characters known from the films and the novels that were killed.
