The Star Wars: First Draft was the first revision to the rough draft, completed only a few months later. Most of the revision centered on names, and many of these changes were later rejected when Lucas began work on the second draft, entitled Adventures of the Starkiller, Episode I: The Star Wars in early 1975.

Opening crawlEdit

Until the recent GREAT REBELLION, 
the DAI NOGAS were the most 
feared warriors in the universe. 
For one hundred thousand years, 
generations of DAI perfected their art 
as the personal bodyguards of the King. 
They were the chief architects of the 
invincible ROYAL SPACE FORCE, 
which expanded the King's power across 
the galaxy, from the celestial equator 
to the farthest stars.

Now these legendary warriors 
are all but extinct. One by one, 
they have been hunted down 
and destroyed as enemies of 
the NEW GALACTIC KINGDOM by a 
ferocious and sinister rival 
warrior sect, THE LEGIONS OF LETTOW.

Changes from the Rough to the First DraftEdit

• The names of about half the characters, organizations and locations changed throughout the script.

• The sky of the Fourth Moon of Ogana changed from "bleak" to red. Lakes were present on that moon, some green.

• The clouds of the Royal capital of Alderaan have become yellow oxide instead of "white oxide".

• The second handmaiden, Alana, was omitted. Mina remained as a decoy princess at the Chatos Academy instead.

AppearancesEdit

Because so many changes were made to the names in the script, the original names from the rough draft are indicated below.
