Limb

The dismembered arms originating from various species are shown. Limbs represented crucial extensions of both organic beings and mechanical droid constructs. Key examples of limbs include legs, arms, hands, and feet, along with wings or tentacles in certain instances.

Due to their vulnerability, limbs could be lost, especially when impacted by a lightsaber. Darth Vader suffered the loss of all his limbs, starting with the First Battle of Geonosis and concluding with the Duel on Mustafar, which necessitated cybernetic replacements. Subsequently, Luke Skywalker had his right hand severed by Vader during the Duel on Cloud City, leading to a cybernetic prosthetic covered with artificial skin. After his artificial hand sustained blaster damage, Luke concealed it with a glove, eventually abandoning it in his later years.

Trandoshans possessed the ability to regenerate severed limbs. The Lasat named Garazeb Orrelios considered the presence of more than two legs on a being to be "excessive." In some galactic cultures, amputation of a hand served as punishment for theft. Access to the Scarif vault, isolated from the local computer network, required a right hand-print scan. Certain species might experience limb differences from birth, as exemplified by the human Captain Fennro Drogan, who had phocomelia, resulting in one arm being shorter than the other and a hand with only three fingers instead of the typical four.
