Biography
Big Jak's origins are unknown, but as of the Galactic Civil War, Jak had become the powerful leader of the notorious Riders of the Maelstrom. While riding with his pirates, Jak had lead the group into many skirmishes to plunder ships passing through The Maelstrom. In one of these brief battles, Jak was badly wounded and still carries a large scar across his face. To retain his leadership over the Riders, Jak had undergone several controversial medical procedures to increase his strength, aggression, and rage. One of these modifications included adding gene material from several criminals and warlords to increase his fearsome demeanor.

Jak's leadership led to the complete domination of the Maelstrom until a rival pirate, Rodin Higron won the planet Oasis in a crooked sabaac game. The planet was located inside the Maelstrom, and Rodin Higron's pirates set up shop there. Furious with Higron's intrusion, Jak devised a scheme to eliminate the rival gang. Jak's pirates hijacked the Kuari Princess and sent it on a collision course with Higron's base of operations. Unfortunately for the Riders, a team of Rebels boarded the ship and thwarted Jak's plan. Although the Rebel team tried to kidnap the pirate chief, Jak was able to escape and continue to lead the Riders.
