The complete Legend’s synopsis on Han Solo’s Backstory and Lineage :)

———————————————

Everyone has a depressing backstory, including Han!

@stealingpotatoes you awakened and something in me, I don’t blame you if you don’t read this all it basically became a research project

Yes Han is allegedly related to Corellian royalty, Berethron e Solo. One account says he was King and Prince Admiral of Corellia who helped build a democratic government system. The other says he was King of Corellia and he was seen as a lunatic who pushed against the democratic transition. The first account is what is on his official fandom page and is what is used in the more recent book “The Courtship of Princess Leia” (my favorite book) but Han’s bloodline was also mentioned in “The Paradise Snare” so I will have to double check the book to see if their was a retcon.

The reason why the relation is alleged is because a man by the name of Korol Solo (Han’s great grandfather) claimed to be the descendent of King Bretheron, but he was thought to be a pretender and hung for his crimes. The books make it unclear if Han is actually related to the King or not and they never outright answer the question, but most people assume that he is. Han’s grandfather Dalla Solo/Suul also known as Dalla the black was an infamous pirate, notorious kingpin, and famous murderer. Some times Han’s Grandfather is referred to as Denn Solo and it is assumed Denn was Dalla’s public identity. Also Dalla’s illigetament grandson is this really annoying new republic politician and president of the Alderaan Council named Threkin Horm, whom I despise. Han and Threkin actually hated each other, and had no clue that they were related until C3PO figured it out when he was researching Han’s lineage. 3PO revealed this to Threkin after Threkin had publicly disgraced Han’s grandfather, revealing to him, that his own grandfather was the same person.

Anyway, Han’s parents were Jonash Solo and Jonash’s wife Jaina. (Where Jaina got her namesake) It is believed that Dalla changed the family name from Solo to Suul to separate them from Korol. So Jonash was born as Jonash Suul and later, changed the family name back to what it was originally. What happened to Jonash and his father is inconsistent. Most accounts claimed That Jonash and his father (being referred to as Denn) were kidnapped by pirates when Jonash was an infant. And Jonash survived and fathered Han. But another account claims the family was attacked by pirates, so split up. Jonash’s father (still being referred to as Denn) took Johnash, and his wife Tira Gama Solo took Jonash’s twin sister, and the family was never reunited.

Jaina’s story and lineage is unknown.

Han has a little memory of either of his parents, as he was orphaned at a young age. his first distinct memory was being alone at a Corellian space port around the age of two. (if you look at Jonash’s page on Wookieepedia it says Han was orphaned at seven, that is incorrect, I read the book, he was two) He has vague memories of them, mostly his mother, but a lot of them he blacked out, as they were too traumatic, and to this day he does not know what happened to his parents.

he was picked up from the space port by gangster Garris Shrike, and basically turned into a child slave. He would either be sent on pickpocket or begging duty, and he would have to bring a certain amount of money or merchandise back every day. As he got older he would be sent to break into houses and steal things as well. And if he didn’t do what he was told he would be severely punished. One of the punishments mentioned was Devaronian blood-poison, which was caused by this gem Garris had on his ring, if the gem came in contact with the skin, it caused excruciating pain, and if it got in contact with the blood stream, it would release a poison, causing you to be really sick. Making it a popular torture tactic. This punishment was only used in extreme cases, but I do believe Han said it was used on him at least once. Other punishments included physical beating.

Anyway Han’s mother figure was Garris’s cook Dewlannamapia or Dewlanna for short. She was a wookie and that is how Han learned the language. We love her, she is Han’s mother, enough said. She was actually the one that figured out Han’s last name because she beat Garris in game of cards so he had to tell her. She cared for Han. She made him learn to read and write and study all subjects, even though he wasn’t allowed to. She took him to the medic when he was sick even though Garris said no, and it was a good thing as it turned out, he was really sick and probably would’ve died.

Because Han could read and write it actually gave him an advantage because most of Garris’s child slaves could not, so Garris would take him on these elaborate con schemes, where they would pose as a wealthy family and he enjoyed those because he got to go to school and he liked math and science and the temporary friends he made during that time, even if he was lying to them. This is where he meets Gram Bel lblis a prominent legends character, and Han becomes a sort of fan boy. Also these con schemes would often involve him flying in swoop races. (essentially pod racing but different, I believe faster and you don’t have to be as small. This sport is canon now as they show it in bad batch season two) and he would always win those

There was this one time where he used his last name to find out that he had living relatives on Corellia, so he ran away and found they were super rich. His Uncle Randil Sal was deceased, but he met his aunt Tiion Sal-Solo like once, but she was mentally ill and when she saw him she instantly started crying, possibly due to Han’s resemblance to her twin brother, as she had never knew he survived the kidnapping by the Pirates. so his cousin Thrackan Sal-Solo took him away and refused to let him see her again. And his cousin was crazy. He would like throw rocks at small animals because he thought it was fun or something and he physically and verbally abused Han And Han had to follow every one of his demands. I think at one point he threatened to like cut off Han’s ear. So Han attacked him and demanded He tell him what he knew about the Solo family. When Thracken answered Han calmed down allowing the older boy to subdue him and lock him in a closet where he was for three days before Thracken turned him back over to Shrike who was definitely not happy that Han had run away.

Tracken and Han end up having a lifelong Feud, as an adult Thracken becomes an imperial and also starts a human supremacy group, I don’t make this shit up.

Anyway, when Han was 19 he planned an escape from Shrike, but he got caught and he was going to get shot, but Dewlana took the bullet for him and died in front of him :(

and then he escaped and started using the alias Vykk Draygo. he became a pilot for this weird place that was a spice mining facility in affiliation with the hutts, and all of the workers were part of a cult were the people in charge of the facility would get them addicted to these pheromones so they would worship them, and wouldn’t leave. it’s a long story he basically just wanted to get enough money to join the imperial academy and then he swore to himself that after that he would never do anything illegal, and he’d live a respectable life.

He becomes friends with my beloved Muuurgh his co pilot on the job, I love him he’s such a precious boy. And also falls in love with one of the girls that was in the cult, Bria Tharen and he rescues her. They apparently have a child, but Han does not know until after he’s married Leia and this child is nowhere to be seen so I am assuming the child is dead. if you Google said Child you can’t find anything there isn’t even a name. But It Is is clearly stated in “Tattoine Ghost,” That this happened, Bria is name dropped and everything.

But back to the story, they went to corsocaunt and they planed to get married, but she snuck out in the middle of the night because she said he deserved better. she left him enough money to join the imperial academy. She later joins the rebellion and she committed suicide when she was captured rather than let herself be interrogated.

Han then uses the money to get himself an identification card, and change his retinal patterns so he could change his identity and get through imperial retinal scans (yes, he had plastic surgery on his eyes). And then he ended up meeting shrike again and killed him out of self-defense, using shrikes body to fake his aliases Death, which did not last very long I’ll be honest. And then he adopted his last name officially, joining the imperial academy as Han Solo. (he actually got to keep his real name because he’d done everything else under an alias)

unfortunately the next book skips over his imperial days and only addresses it in flashbacks but basically he was the top pilot, top of his class, he was on a ship that was ferrying wookie slaves, and there was a slave rebellion, and his commanding officer told him to kill Chewbacca and bring him back his skins so instead Han shot the officer (on stun) and helped chewie escape, which caused him to get dishonorably discharged from the imperial navy and blacklisted, forcing him to become a smuggler out of necessity, and Chewbacca refused to leave due to the life debt so they eventually became what they were in a new Hope

since honestly none of this interferes with canon aside from the Solo movie which I dislike this is the only backstory I can see for Han personally so I like using it in my sequels writings about Kylo as well, but of course, in Legends, Han marries Leia about eight years after return of the Jedi, and they have three kids, the twins Jaina and Jacen and then Anakin who is about a year younger. In legends Han said he wanted to have kids, because he wanted to be the father he never had. And that’s just beautiful. Unlike the sequels, Han does survive in legends, I’m not sure which is better. His life is very depressing.

I believe He’s still an orphaned slave in Canon too. It’s just less explored. Nobody ever talks about how terrible his childhood is.

That was way more detail than I originally intended

@bcrnitdown || Capped Starter Call

It had taken a lot of scoping out and planning, but finally, preparations were complete, all that was left, was just to wait a couple days for the right moment. For the past little while, John had been looking for a big score for the Deadlock Gang to claim for their own. After what seemed like a long time to find any good leads, John had finally found something, a job that would set Deadlock right for at least three months -- which would be a perfect excuse to lay low after and let the heat die down.

The job was a train robbery, the veteran outlaw had found out about a train scheduled pass by Blackwater, he heard from a trusted inside source that this train would be loaded with a large sum of money from the Blackwater bank, the money was supposedly being sent to a major bank outside of state so if they were going to target it and get away successfully, he would need to make sure it was well planned and put together, there was no room for error -- not with a huge opportunity job like this. A successful robbery here and not only would their reputation be spread out even further, they would be well set for a good few months for sure. In the past, he had made some crucial mistakes, but now he was all past that. He was much more experienced now so he had no worries about this operation. The Deadlock Gang was a very capable Outlaw gang and their name already was big enough to shake people up and make them uneasy.

John had thought of everything carefully and he didn’t want to return back to the hideout unless he had a foolproof plan, and after about three days of being away, the steady trotting of hooves on the path between the multiple tree’s leading to their hideout could be heard heading their way. Thankfully close to the end of the path, the tree lines would thicken around it making sight beyond the path impossible, which was completely perfect for this hideout. After revealing himself to the Deadlock member on guard, he is welcomed back by the others, and after sharing a mutual greeting with them, the moment he and Ashe made eye contact, the others would quickly give them time alone, he couldn’t wait to tell her what he had.

Dismounting and hitching his horse, John approaches the blonde with a small, confident smile with hints of warmth in it.

[{ ✘ }] - “Hey darlin’, sorry I been away fer a few days. But I promise, it ain’t been fer nothin’ I got us a job, big payout. Long as we do it right.”
