The Taxi Driver

Korben

Korben is a native of Corellia who escaped to Coruscant to drive a taxi there for a living. The Corellian had been involved in some shady work back on his homeworld and escaped the grasp of CorSec who wanted a word with the man about some stolen goods. Instead, he took the advice of a friend and "left town".

For those who don't know, taxi drivers on Coruscant are some of the best airspeeder pilots in a the galaxy having to prove their skill and safety before being allowed the "free travel license" to drive outside of the designated lanes for traffic. And to everyone across the galaxy, Corellians are noted for their ability as pilots. For a few years, Korben worked a decent job for decent pay. He even had dated a Justicar (if his former partners could see, they would faint), a beautiful orange-skinned twi-lek woman named Layla. But then the Empire started working with the Diktat on it's Law Enforcement, and Korben was on the list. When he was discovered on Coruscant, instead of sending the Justicars after Corban, the Empire had him labeled as a dangerous terrorist and sent a squad of Imperial Army troopers.

The troopers did what soldiers across the galaxy do to people they're told are dangerous terrorists. They started shooting and Korben did the only thing he could. He ran, taking Layla with him and evading TIE fighters in his Taxi. A small group of rebels snatched the couple off the street from a sweeper team of Army units, giving them cover identities and getting the two off Coruscant to the Rebel Alliance. However, Layla was not so fortunate. At the airlock to the ship to take them offworld, Layla caught a stun bolt and fell back out the airlock just as their starship was lifting off. Corban tried to grab her, but her fingers slipped through his and she fell the three meters to the docking bay floor. The last that the taxi driver from Corellia saw of her was a squad of Imperial troopers swarming over her. The young man screamed in fear, anger and loss, holding out his hand as if to compel the Force and grab the woman he loved from the clutches of Imperial forces.

Holonet news detailed the supposed sting and apprehension of a "rebel terrorist", detailing that one was shot and killed in the escape. Korben blames the Empire, and the Diktat to a lesser extent, for the circumstances that led to Layla getting shot, and the Corellion government who colluded with the Empire in labeling a petty criminal as a terrorist. Two years have passed since then, and the fires of Korben's anger have burned down to coals that have the potential to flare up if not carefully monitored.

The Rebellion was thrilled with his ability to fly and rushed him through Starfighter training. Korben has been assigned to a new squadron, recently started to address unique issues that the Rebellion could be facing. Korben now uses his old criminal abilities to gather supplies for the Rebellion, as he knows that the fledgling movement is in need of whatever he can beg, borrow or even steal should it be required. He is the pilot of Y-wing 1.

Korben's Alliance dossier says that he is a man not overly blessed with intelligence, but has a gift for working with the underground and the black market as well as being an incredible pilot and a natural talent for shooting.
