As Lord Starkiller[]

History[]

Born a son of both Jedi Knights, who fell in love right after the Clone Wars, Galen Marek was orphaned by Darth Vader at a young age after his father, Kento Marek, was killed by the latter. Vader found the boy after being disarmed of his lightsaber at the time, and protected him from a firing squad. From there, Vader trained him to become a deadly assassin under the codename "Starkiller", accompanying him is his reliable droid sidekick "PROXY" and strong-minded (but not Force-sensitive) pilot Juno Eclipse, whom Galen becomes progressively closer with. As Vader's secret apprentice, he was dispatched to perform missions to assassinate Jedi Masters Rahm Kota and Shaak Ti, along with the reclusive Kazdan Paratus, being assured by Vader's promises that they can overthrow Palpatine together. However, Vader betrayed him publicly in front of the Emperor to prevent his secret being discovered. As a result, Galen defected to the Rebellion by finding a blinded Kota, rescued Senator Bail Organa, inciting a Wookie uprising in Kashyyyk, destroying valuable Imperial properties and killing many of their troopers and officers.

Galen's actions inspired rebellion in what will become the Alliance to Restore the Republic, or the Rebel Alliance. But however, he secretly covets with Vader to regain his favor; only for Vader to turn on him again when he realized that Vader actually had no intention to overthrow Emperor Palpatine and captured Kota, Organa, PROXY and Eclipse. He rallies the beleagured Rebels to the unfinished Death Star while it is under construction and fought his way up until he confronted Vader and Palpatine himself. After defeating Vader, Palpatine goaded him to kill Vader to replace him, but Galen instead fights and defeats the Emperor.

He eventually sacrificed himself to allow the captives to escape with their lives as much as they can. The Rebel Alliance eventually wears his family's insignia as their symbol in memory of the young Jedi that inspired them to stand against the Galactic Empire.

Starkiller[]

Background[]

A clone of the late Galen Marek, Starkiller is created as part of the plan to destroy Galen Marek's heroic memory. Inheriting Galen's lightsaber mastery and the Force, Vader trained him to ensure he would be ready for battle, but saw Starkiller as too unwilling to kill those closest to Marek himself. Starkiller turned on Vader, escaped Kamino and stole his TIE Advanced to leave to instead find General Rahm Kota. After rescuing Kota from a despotic Imperial governor, Starkiller goes to Dagobah under the guidance of Grand Master Yoda for self-reflection under the dark of the Force, then he went to find Juno Eclipse, whose cruiser, the Salvation, is under attack by Imperial forces.

Though his progenitor's friends believe that he has come back from the dead, Starkiller often reminds them that he is a clone, not the original Galen Marek himself.

Although Starkiller was unable to rescue Juno, he had Kota order an full-scale assault on Kamino. There, he confront Vader. Despite Vader's immense power and use of failed Galen clones, Starkiller managed to overcome him, but spared him on Kota's urging. There, he reunited with a repaired PROXY and a recovered Eclipse as they left Kamino together.

Lightsaber Combat[]

Much like his progenitor, Starkiller is a natural-born fighter of the lightsaber, highly capable of cutting down varied enemies with ease, though some enemies required strategies that he can use. In addition, Starkiller can mix his Force powers into the lightsabers for increased efficiency, such as lightning and push.

Lightsaber[]

A modified version of his late progenitor's lightsaber, Starkiller can effectively use the Force to fuel the blades for uniquely, dangerously effective strikes.

Force Abilities[]

While Starkiller inherits his late progenitor's Force abilities, he also has a few more abilities the original Galen Marek didn't develop: such as Tutaminis, the ability to defend and absorb energy without the use of a lightsaber and Force Fury, in which, Starkiller unleashes his full potential for a short time, become a total monster in the field.

Feats[]

  • Can deflect missiles from smaller AT walkers
  • Can rip out Wardroid shields with the Force
  • Can crush an AT-ST with the Force
  • Compares to his late progenitor, who can use the Force against a Star Destroyer
  • Defeated armies of failed Garen Marek clones, Imperial personnel, and Baron Tarko's captive beasts
  • Defeated Baron Tarko, the Terror Walker, Darth Vader and the Gorog
  • Threw a TIE Fighter out of it's flight pattern with his bare hands
  • Withstood the entry temperatures of the Kaminoan atmosphere

Faults[]

  • Emotionally unstable and somewhat anti-social
  • Prone to outbursts as a result of inheriting memories from his progenitor
