- "Fighters, protect the bombers—don't get drawn into dogfights. Let me hear you say copy that, Starck."
"No fun, copy that." - ―Tallissan Lintra and Starck prepare for the battle above D'Qar
Stomeroni Starck was a human male who flew as an T-70 X-wing starfighter pilot and Flight Officer in the Resistance fleet. He served as Blue Two.[5] Starck often served under Blue Leader Lieutenant Tallissan Lintra, who appreciated his skill as a pilot, but had to work to keep his impulsive, headstrong nature in check.[6] Flying as Lintra's wingmate in the Battle of D'Qar, Starck bought time for the evacuation of the Resistance base and covered the Resistance's MG-100 StarFortress SF-17 bombers in their attack run on the Mandator IV-class Siege Dreadnought Fulminatrix.[6][7] Preparing to launch from the MC85 Star Cruiser Raddus following the discovery that the fleet had been tracked through hyperspace, Starck was killed when Kylo Ren's personal squadron destroyed the cruiser's main hangar.[8]
Equipment[]
Stomeroni Starck wore an interstellar-orange flight suit that had a utility belt, and emergency oxygen tube. The suit was further covered in a white flight vest and was accompanied by a gray Guidenhauser flight harness, a white FreiTek life support unit, black gloves and boots. Signal flares were strapped above his left ankle. He wore a red and white flight helmet, with a black and red checkered pattern on top.[4]
