After throwing support beams at Vader, he grabbed the Dark Lord and threw him into Palpatine's Throne Room. The newly-redeemed Galen Marek later travelled to the Death Star to rescue the leaders, where he dueled his former Master. He later revealed to Starkiller that he was merely a tool, and never planned to overthrow Palpatine with him. However, Vader tracked the rebels to Corellia, and captured the leaders and brought them to the Death Star for execution. After gathering a group of Imperial Senators with General Rahm Kota, the Alliance to Restore the Republic was formed.
Starkiller was later sent to create a rebellion to battle the Empire. When he was discovered by Palpatine, Darth Vader faked his death in front of his Master, but later sent a droid to salvage his body.
Galen Marek was taken from Kashyyyk in 18 BBY by Darth Vader, who trained him to become his apprentice, giving him the codename 'Starkiller', with the intention of overthrowing Emperor Palpatine.Īfter 15 years of training, Vader sent him to hunt down Jedi such as Masters Rahm Kota and Shaak Ti.
