If Galen had killed Vader and became the Emperor's apprentice, he would become Lord Starkiller, though called Darth Stalker by fans occasionally. He takes over from Vader as the Supreme Commander of the Imperial Fleet and the Executor is his. When rebel spies steal plans to the Death Star, Starkiller and his Imperials capture the Tantive IV and Princess Leia Organa. The Princess is taken prisoner and the Tantive is destroyed, while Starkiller searches Tatooine for the plans. After landing on tatooine and killing some scavaging jawas, he is contacted by his master who senses that he has not discovered the plans yet and advises that he speak with Jabba the Hutt about the plans. After killing more jawas, tuskens, and blowing the jawa's sand crawler off a cliff, Starkiller comes to Jabba's Palace and overloads the Palace door security and enters. After defeating some gammorean guards, Jabba is impressed and invites him to his chambers. Starkiller asks Jabba of two droids, astromech and protocol, and that he will be well paid for any information. Jabba says he knows nothing, but his translater droid accidentally reminds him of the two droids from Mos Eisly. Furious, Jabba sends Starkiller and some gammoreans down into the Rancor Pitt. The Rancor attacks Starkiller, but he uses his power to lift open the door and crush the door on top of the Rancor, Skywalker style. He makes his way through Jabba's Palace, eventually coming to the Garbage disposal area, whrere the remains of a run-down PROXY are. He aids Starkiller by morphing into a guard and shutting down the security eye, allowing Starkiller to exit. However, before leaving, Starkiller is confronted by Boba Fett, who is after the considerable bounty on him that was placed by Jabba. Dodging his attacks with his jetpa

ck, Starkiller eventually gains the upper hand and Boba launches a missile at him, whch just grabs with the force and hurls back at fett. his helmet down on the ground, and his

body gone, he appears dead, but most likely not. He's a survivor. Starkiller steals a lift to Mos Eisly where he confronts Han Solo, luke Skywalker, the two droids, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Kenobi tells Starkiller that he can let him go no farther. Starkiller is filled with exitement at being able to kill the real Obi-Wan, after spending years of his youth training against holograms of him. Though experienced, Starkiller is more powerful, and gains the advantage, piercing his blade into Kenobi's shoulder, then lifting him and throwing him into the Millenium Falcon's engine. However, Kenobi then reappeared as a Force Ghost and began to challenge Starkiller again, giving the others time to escape. Though his Force Power was now magnified, Starkiller used his mastery of Force Lightning to vanquish Kenobi's spirit, though not permanently. as the Falcon was taking off, Starkiller leaped onto its hull and placed a tracking beacon, then fell bck to the ground, and contacted his Star Destroyer to prepare for his arrival. three years later, Starkiller leads the assualt of Hoth, and confronts Luke Skywalker, a rebel leader and Jedi Knight and the son of his former master.

[edit] Armour Variations

There are a few variations of Starkiller's 'Stalker' armour. The first was when he got his armour. It had the helmet, claws, metalic rib cage and shoulder plate. The hemet could also be removed. The next was on his mission to Tatooine, the armour was altered slightly and then also wrapped in a Tusken Raider disguise. The final variation was years later, where his suit had become much more 'vader-ish', now having plates attached to the helmet, similar to Vader's helmet, the suit now having black material, similar to Vader's, and a metal spine on the exterior of the suit. Also, the claws are now part of the suit, not just attached to his fingers.
