Background:
Plenty of folks want to believe that the Separatist Army was completely mechanized, and that the Trade Federation and Banking Clans operated unilaterally. But the cold hard truth was that many systems had chafed under Republic rule long before the invasion of Naboo. And without this disgruntled constituency, the Separatist Army would have languished on Geonosis and would have been related to history as nothing more than a failed insurrection.
Jak Kato joined the resistance as a teenager. He wanted to prove that the Systems could rule themselves once freed from the tyrannical yoke of the Galactic Republic. In the army, he specialized in gathering intelligence and sabotage. Later, he established himself as a capable pilot and even flew in the disastrous Battle of Coruscant.
After the retreat, Jak's fleet was ordered to regroup and commenced repairs. But only a few weeks later, the War was over. Some new lapdog of Palpatine's had coldly executed the heads of the Trade Federation and Banking Clans without so much as a trial. And without financial backing, the Separatist fleet was left broken and unable to heal itself.
Now, bitter and angry over the loss of independence, Jak wants nothing more than to fly as fast and far from this new Empire as he can. He takes odd jobs here and there, with the hopes of buying his own ship someday, with his own crew.
Goal: Find a ship. Find a job. Keep flying.
