Biography
Like all clone troopers Boost was born on Kamino, as a clone of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, to fight for the Republic. Along with most other clone troopers he fought in the first battle of the war on the planet Geonosis. Their he got his scars fighting battle droids.

When General Plo Koon was dispatched to search for the Separatist "mystery weapon", which has destroyed several Republic fleets, Boost was part of Plo Koon's troops. Upon discovering the Malevolence in the Abregado system, the Malevolence fired with her ion cannons on the Venator-class cruiser which rendered them without energy. Then the many cannons of the Subjugator-cruiser began to fire, quickly destroying the three ships. Boost escaped from the Triumphant in an escape pod with Commander Wolffe, Sergeant Sinker and Master Plo Koon.<ref name="Rising Malevolence"

In the pod, Wolffe told them they had a total system blackout and only the lifes support was working. On Sinker's comment that they can only sit around and hold their breath, Boost said that someone would search for them. After that Koon advised to regain the energy. While doing this Sinker commented negatively about Boost's hygiene. Sinker also said that it would not be strategical to search for them and he would instead search for the superweapon. Koon answered that their lives were more important for him. Shortly after Boost discovered another escaped pod, but inside were all dead and the pod was crashed. Menawhile Boost and Sinker repair the pod's energy. Then they pick up another signal by another pod. However before reaching it it is destryoed by a Droch-class boarding ship and some rocket battle droids. Then the pod hunter spotted. While Wolffe stays in the shuttle, Koon, Sinker and Boost went out to fight the droids. During the fight Wolffe got contact to Padawan Ahsoka Tano, which was along with her master, Anakin Skywalker, on a rescue mission for eventually battle survivors. Then Koon used the Force to threw Sinker behind the droids who managed to destroy them. Shortly after Koon contacted Tano using the Force, showing her his location. So theys were found by the Twilight, Skywalker's personal freighter. The Twilight then recovered the escape pod. Onboard the clones were treated by a medical droid. Shortly after the Malevolence discovered the Twilight despite the attempts on shutting down all energy, because they forgot the medi droid. However the Twilight manages to escape the system before they were rendered without energy by the Malevolence ion cannons..<ref name="Rising Malevolence"
