Han Solo

Han Solo was a smuggler from Corellia who later became General and Hero in the Rebel Alliance.

Feats as a Smuggler
It is fabled that Han Solo could make the Kessel Run in under 12 Parasecs. As well, Solo was adept at outrunning Imperial ships.

Wanted by Jabba the Hutt
After failing a smuggling job for the crime boss Jabba the Hutt, Han was wanted for losing Jabba's precious cargo. He was not able to pay Jabba back leading to a price on his head. Several bounty hunters were sent after Han to get Jabba's money.

Joining the Rebellion
Solo initially took a job to transport Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker to Alderaan, but upon reaching the destination found the planet was destroyed. They were then forced to dock in the Death Star - an imperial battle-station - which they discovered was where Princess Leia was being held. He aided his new friends to help free Princess Leia from the Death Star heeding Luke's advice there would be a big reward for him after.

After returning to the Rebel Base on Yavin 4 Solo said he was off with his reward from the Rebels, but chose to come back and help during the Battle of Yavin, a critical moment that enabled Luke Skywalker to make the shot on the Death Star.
