Legend

this Outer Rim smuggler was trained at the Imperial Academy to be a TIE Fighter pilot, but botched one too many missions to remain in his commanding officer's good graces. Rather than face a courtmartial, he tried to steal a TIE Fighter. He was forced to hode aboard the Beggar's Solace, and was taken on a wild ride when the ship's hyperdrive motivator started acting up. Having escaped from Imperial service, Jin-Jin went to work as an independent mercenary, but his ineptitude continued to dog his career. He was forced to capture an entire royal family, after being witnessed trying to rescue their daughter from Imperial custody. When Jin-Jin won a fortune gambling on Mepha'as Prime, he sunk it all into real estate on Alderaan a week before the Empire destroyed the planet. Broke, Jin-Jin took the Beggar's Solace and set out to make a name for himself as a smuggler. He found that he was good at it, and his bumbles became a thing of the past.
