!!Boonta Eve Classic Podracers

The Boonta Eve was considered to be the most dangerous of all podracing courses.

* AllThereInTheManual: Half of the podracers listed here have only very brief appearances and can only be identified in the movie by their pods. Supplementary material reveals their names, species, homeworlds, and even backstories.
* BirdPeople: Nuknogs like Ark Roose are anthropomorphic, featherless chickens. Wan Sandage, a Devlikk, is seemingly this as well, having hands with long sharp claws like those of a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratite ratite]] and looking like an anthropomorphic ostrich to an extent.
* BloodSport: The race consists of piloting small pods which are tied to massive jet engines. Many of the pilots don't even finish the race, let alone survive it.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Teemto Pagalies is the only racer seen ramming an opponent's pod in the Boonta Eve Classic aside from Sebulba, doing so to Anakin after Anakin passes Gasgano. Not only does he fail to stop Anakin from passing him, he proceeds to get shot down by Tusken Raiders (he survives the crash, though).
* CoolCar: Pods tied to jet engines. Can't get much cooler than that!

* HeWhoFightsMonsters: [[AllThereInTheManual According to character guide]], Ratts Tyerell was sick of Sebulba's cheating and meant "to fight fire with fire". However, he died in a crash before he could pay Sebulba back...

* LizardFolk: Ratts Tyerell, Mars Guo, Neva Kee and Clegg Holdfast. They're an Aleena, a Bardottan, a Xamster and a Nosaurian, respectively.

* MirrorCharacter: To Bail and Breha Organa. Both of the couples are the loving, adoptive parents of {{Hope Bringer}}s Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa. It was all of them being GoodParents that [[UpbringingMakesTheHero helped]] their children becomes the heroes they are. However, both set of parents did lie about their children's heritage to a certain extent to protect them. The Organas' explanation that Leia was a war orphan was vague but broadly truthful while the Larses' lie about Luke's father having been a spice freighter navigator who died was a complete fabrication. While the Organas were royalty, secretly aided in the Rebellion which Leia became a part of when she found out, and were close friends of the twins' mother Padmé; the Larses were poor, were concerned with being moisture farmers and not galactic politics, expressed no desire for Luke to go into the Rebellion but also had different takes on Luke leaving Tatooine (Owen was against the idea while Beru was more open to it), and were related to the twin's father Anakin through marriage but hadn't had a particularly close relationship with him.

Owen was the son of Cliegg Lars from his previous relationship and the stepbrother of Anakin Skywalker. At the behest of Obi-Wan Kenobi, he and his wife Beru adopted their nephew and Anakin's son, Luke.

* SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome: This planet is the place where people age far quicker than they would anywhere else due to the scorching twin suns. Obi-Wan goes from 34 year-old Creator/EwanMcGregor to 63 year-old Creator/AlecGuinness after living on the planet for 19 years ''while'' being burdened with immense trauma and regret which likely accelerated the aging process (though since Obi-Wan was meant to be 38 when he arrived on Tatooine, the disparity isn't that great) while Boba Fett, after spending five years wandering the deserts of Tatooine, looks like a 59-year old Creator/TemueraMorrison despite being only 41 years old in-canon. The Larses suffer from it as well, going from a young couple in (at their earliest) mid-20s to looking old enough to be Luke's ''grandparents'' in ''A New Hope''.

->'''Voiced by:''' Lewis Macleod

** He also impresses upon Boba that his tribe is not of the stereotypical savage raider type that Tuskens are viewed as, and inducts Boba into the tribe by granting him the right to carry a traditional [[DropTheHammer Gaderffii Stick.]]

* DropTheHammer: She knows her way around a Gaderffii Stick, and teaches Boba how to wield one.

* SchrodingersCanon: In ''Legends'', long before the films themselves, Tatooine used to be a pristine world full of vast oceans and extensive jungles that was home to an advanced humanoid civilization known as the Kumumgah, who began colonizing nearby star systems, something which unfortunately drew the attention of the [[AbusivePrecursors Rakatan Infinite Empire]]. The Rakata invaded the planet and enslaved its inhabitants, but, after a terrible plague caused the Rakata to lose their connection to the Force, the Kumumgah took the chance and revolted against their masters, successfully driving them away from their world. In response, the Rakata subjected the planet to an orbital bombardment that "glassed" (that is, fused the silica in the soil into glass, which then broke up over time into sand) the planet and boiled its oceans away, turning it into the desertic world it is today. The Kumumgah split into two races as a result of this change, the Tusken Raiders and the Jawas. Likewise, Tatooine may have earned its name after the Jawa name for the planet, Tah-doo-Een-e. In ''The Book of Boba Fett'', the Tuskens make numerous references to Tatooine having once had plentiful water, though no further detail on what happened to the water is thus far forthcoming.

* MamaBear: [[spoiler:She helps Owen in fighting against Reva to protect Luke despite being outmatched.]]
