Capsule: Few know Starters true name or any real facts about his past.
However, he has made several outrageous claims about his background — he’s said he grew up in Anchorhead on Tatooine as a close friend of Luke Skywalker and Biggs Darklighter. Then again, he’s also said he learned about starship piloting from Han Solo himself. These days, few people believe much of anything Starter says.
In reality, Starter was the son of an Imperial admiral. He attended the Imperial Naval academy on Corulag, but was quickly thrown out, labelled as undisciplined, obnoxious and generally loudmouthed. Rather than return home in disgrace. Starter took what he learned about Imperial starfighter tactics and joined the Rebel Alliance as an X-wing pilot.
Starter is an exceptional X-wing pilot, and can be counted on to lend a hand in a heated dogfight or fleet battle. He is fond of recounting past battles and heroic actions in excruciating and often exaggerated detail. A handsome man, he’s always trying to impress the ladies — although his charm and storytelling ability are more often used in boring his few friends.
Although he is not an official member of the Black Curs, a rogue mercenary group occasionally helping the New Republic with intelligence and commando work, Starter sometimes teams up with Platt Okeefe, Dirk Harkness, Jai Raventhorn and Tru’eb Cholakk when he’s guaranteed a chance to fly some heroic mission in his customized X-wing.
