==Biography==

{{Quote|Stop looking at my breasts you pervert|Headmaster Morrigan Killia}}

There isn't much about this man available, he keeps himself to himself. Although his body is covered in a number of scars and burns made by unknown objects. When looking at this from a force sense this doesn't make sense as Jonah is able to heal himself.

===Early life===

Jonah’s early life remains a mystery, the only thing that he has been able to remember from his formative years was that he was force sensitive from an early age and that his strength within the force amongst his peers was unparalleled. His teachers thought that he was dangerous and refused to teach him, which explains him being described as a blunt object rather than any similarity to the elegance of a lightsaber.

==Personality and Traits==

{{Quote|Not sure if he’s all there|Cyrel Vandroth}}

Jonah loves to collect things, including artifacts, playbeings magazines, and other force related materials.

Suffers from poor eyesight, and diminished hearing, as you would expect from an old man. Probably a good thing for Master Killia.

==Relationships==

Jonah has had many conquests over the years however, his love of tomes and texts seems to have overridden his fervour for women. He had until three years ago kept his dating profile on star-inder and see many women, but his interest in them quickly dissipates as soon as he has gotten to know them. However, he has been attempting to seek recognition by Master Killia for her to conduct his Knight trials for many years, and as such has taken a vow of celibacy. Jonah’s hope is that his past indiscretion will be overcome by the good he now does and go in some small part to washing away these grave errors in judgment when he flirted wrongly with the dark side.

==Powers and Abilities==

Jonah’s real skill lies in his unique ability to tap into Jedi and Sith artifacts to unlock their secrets. He has a great memory which serves the group well regarding the history of Jedi and Sith modern or ancient texts. Jonah’s grasp of languages is unique and unparalleled. He has a good grasp as of the force and specific skill sets regarding as a Force Healer and Academic. Jonah often takes up a role as a supporting influence from the group, boosting their combat and defensive abilities with his knowledge and expertise with the force.

==Trivial Trivia==

* Jonah has all 214 Playbeings Magazines, all in mint condition, 3 are signed and kept in hermetically sealed cases.
* Jonah has a suit of armor that is called Librarian Armor, this aids his skills within Jedi/Sith research.

{{Quote|Lucas Stark is perhaps the only pilot that flies an X-Wing as smoothly as an A-Wing.|[[Joshua Arands]]}}

'''Lucas Benoit-Stark''', or '''IronMan''', was a human male from Tatooine noted for his wit, ego, and dangerous capabilities in a snubfighter as seen in the Vanguard Era and the Outer Rim Wars [[Minos]].

He was once [[Resurrection Squadron]] CO, [[Scorpion Wing]] CO, [[RgF]] CO. Lead Scorpion Wing to three Renegade Fleet Campaign victories.

Recently, he flew with the RS in the SWG PA as a member of [[Resurrection Squadron]] and continues to maintain a position as one of the top pilots on Starsider in his X-wing.

==Biography==
{{Quote|He'll either be dead by the age of twenty...or great by the age of twenty.|[[Rask D'Aners]], Leader of the [[Sun Blazers]]}}

===Early life===
Little is known about the childhood of Lucas Benoit and most of it appears in lapses. He was born in Mos Eisley, Tatooine on a ''Lambda Class Shuttle'' in Docking Bay 89. His birth mother, an unknown woman from Coruscant, left him in the care of strangers weeks after childbirth. Days later, authorities found Lucas' mother brutally slain. Although it was speculated that his father, Jarius Stark, a Coruscant man shrouded by wealth and mysticism, was a prime suspect in the murder, there was insufficient evidence to indict him.

Despite his prior years of life known to no one, Lucas Benoit emerged in Mos Eisley at the age of twelve; his prior years completely unknown to anyone save for him. An uneducated vagabond, Benoit found a home with a small pirate faction known as the ''Sun Blazers.'' For two years, the small band caused trouble among Tatooine and Corellian space. At age fourteen, Benoit, a brash and cocky amateur pirate, earned the attention of CorSec and was apprehended by a journeyman Rebel pilot named [[Michael "MacMan" McEwen]].

It remains a mystery how or why Lucas Benoit joined the Rebellion, but it was this interaction which led to it.

===The Unbridled Joy of Flight===
Records indicate that Lucas Benoit joined the Rebellion at sixteen years of age; however, it is speculated that he was apart of the Alliance at fourteen. Whether it was due to information sliced and altered for eligibility remains unknown. Lucas, assigned to [[Resurrection Squadron]] under the leadership of [[Cody Qel-Droma]], reserved his place in history. The transition from illegally piloting smuggling ships like R-41's to X-Wings was not that different and in a short time, earned a reputation as a vicious X-Wing pilot. [[Joshua Arands]], an A-Wing pilot at heart, formed a connection with Benoit and although the two were not initially paired as such (Resurrection 7 and 5 respectively, they became wingmates who won many battles in their day. Despite notes of insubordination , Benoit also connected well with his Commanding Officer as well as [[Leaph Chausew]], an A-Wing pilot who Lucas greatly respects.

The squadrons (Resurrection and Sabre) became the antithesis to the 121st TIE Squadron and Lucas became the bane of Captain Naithan Carew. Besting him on several occasions, their final encounter ended with Naithan's TIE Advanced destroyed and the Captain presumably dead.

Disaster struck Resurrection when [[Halyn Lance]] issued the order for the squadron to stay dormant instead of push the attack. When the mission was a failure, Arands and Benoit confronted Halyn and Leaph outside the Rori Rebel Outpost. Shortly after, Lucas Benoit disappeared from the squadron and returned on several stints before going AWOL for good.

===The Heartthrob Era===
{{Quote|The only reason the Empire refused to make a third Death Star...is because they knew I'd destroy it.|Lucas Benoit-Stark}}
After going AWOL, Lucas, now named Lucas Benoit-Stark returned as a lowly 2nd Lieutenant. During this period, he was assigned to another variant of Resurrection Squadron. The squadron started off as a band of vagabonds and lowlifes, but once Stark was given the title of Commanding Officer, it soon became a notorious squadron that wreaked havoc on its enemies. With pilots such as Cody Qel-Droma, Dave Trebonious-Astoris, and Edward Jackyll to name a few, IronMan and company won three straight campaigns versus all other squadrons of Renegade Fleet and bested Dragon Squadron as the definitive squadron.

The war for the Minos Cluster set the stage for Stark's success. As the battles persisted, so did the kill sheet of the defiant pilot. In fact, his name became known not only throughout the Rebelsquadrons, but also to the Emperor's Hammer, the enemy resistance. For the length and longevity of the Minos War, the path of destruction that IronMan left grew in quality and in quantity, and the reputation and the ego as the most feared X-Wing pilot in the Rebelsquadrons grew bigger and more brazen. Many credit Lucas as the catalyst for the RS' victory. Stark refers to these three years Soon after the Rebel's victory, he was appointed Renegade Fleet Commanding Officer and played a role in the first Outer Rim Wars.

Bored with the command position, he passed the torch to another capable pilot and retired as an Admiral sometime after the first Outer Rim Wars. The act was found peculiar since he was at such a young age when he departed.

===Fall From Grace===
The relationship between the now retired Lucas Benoit-Stark and the Rebel Squadrons became strain, particularly with Aurora Force Commanding Officer, Indiana Bridger as well as her cousin, Tag Rendar. In fact, some of the Jedi Council claimed that Lucas Stark might be power hungry since his massive ego was prevalent in all things.

The sabotage of Dalsuna Losoda, Stark's former XO of Scorpion Wing and Tag's wife, led to a domino effect of catastrophes. Somehow, Dalsuna or SirKnight as most knew him, feigned a defection to the Empire but actually shot Stark in the leg to sell the act. This earned the rage of the pilot who hunted the man down, shooting down four X-Wing pilots in defense and assaulting the "defector" in retaliation.

In the assault, SirKnight revealed the act was staged, and that Stark's actions actually compromised the mission. Upon hearing this, Tag Rendar and Indiana Bridger filed formal charges including:

''
Treason
Conspiring Against the New Republic
Assault on a New Republic Officer''

Stark was detained for his actions at the Quis Rebel Base on Xenen. Days later, Stark disappeared, last seen with Sildrin Rys-Hastur, a rumored Krath Priestess.

Nine months after his disappearance, Stark emerged under the custody of the New Republic, battered and near death. He received medical care under the instruction of General Patrick Blastfire before being incarcerated for seven months. Under the instruction of Cody Qel-Droma and liaison officer Oval Mirce, Stark was sent to the ''Unforgiven'' to serve under Cody's command as Zealot Nine. His actions remain heavily supervised and closely monitored.

==Personality and Traits==
{{Quote|I trust IronMan a lot socially and totally as a wingman of course, but I canâ€™t say I understand him.|Leaph Chausew}}
Although no one knows why he is known as IronMan, his sharp wit and endurance offer some explanation.

Stark trusts very few people; however, the degree of codes and laws that make up the persona of Stark varies and goes more complex once that trust is established.

Stark's temperament resembles that of a firecracker, easy to set off once the fuse is lit. Once upset, there's no discrimination to lessen the blow towards the recipient of his wrath, male or female. A vindictive soul, he has been known to hit women, undermine authoritative figures, and even denounce people who are physically and mentally powerful than him.

His ego, is by far, the most noted trait about the pilot. To he, there is no better pilot than him, although a certain collective come close. In addition, he feels that once exposed to a certain skill, he can not only perform that skill, but also surpass the teacher of that talent. One would think this repulses people, but on the contrary, it attracts people, much to his chagrin. It is part of the reason why he is known as the Heartthrob of the RS. He possesses a magnetic personality that even the most disgusted of women find themselves intrigued and fascinated by. Add that to his youthful and dashing looks, it makes for a dangerous combination.

As of late, he has voiced his opinion on the "downfall of the New Republic" and its favoritism to marketable figures such as Wedge Antilles and Tycho Celchu. In addition, he hates being called by his first name.

Suffers from insomnia.

==Relationships==
Married to Raada Seru, a smuggler from Thyferra and a Jedi Padawan who seems to be the only person immune to Stark's wrath.

==Powers and Abilities==
{{Quote|People talk about the Force like it's this wondrous gift. I'm doin' fine without it.|Lucas Benoit-Stark}}
Jedi Master, Patrick Blastfire, along with many others has claimed that Lucas is indeed Force Sensitive. Because of this, he attracts unwanted attention from friend and foe alike.

Stark vehemently denies this claim, chalking up his survival tendencies to sheer skill and not of some all powerful presence. No one can confirm or deny these claims, but there are definite oddities about him. A brawler and a dirty fighter by all means, Stark has a high threshold for physical pain as well as an unusual lack of scarring, wounds, blemishes or bruises despite being reportedly injured on many cases. He also has a penchant for escaping catastrophe with his quick wits. Although lacking in book smarts, Stark is a versatile person whose quick wits exploit weaknesses.

Not educated in any sense, he is a gifted pilot and an expert strategist when it comes to space superiority combat. He also adapts to most if not all snubfighters and shows almost the same level of comfort and skill as he would in an X-Wing.
