Junas Turner, a Human male, held the rank of Captain. The destruction of his home planet, Alderaan, by the Galactic Empire spurred him to enlist in the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Known for his impetuous nature and idealistic beliefs, he frequently found himself embroiled in precarious circumstances, yet consistently emerged victorious.
Prior to his involvement with the Alliance, he operated as a galactic merchant, a background that ideally suited him for the role of a scout. This skill set became his forte within the Rebellion. He frequently leveraged his inherent abilities, as well as his good fortune, often finding success in his assigned tasks.
During a failed operation on Endor, where he was tasked with gathering intel on the Imperial Death Star II construction, he faced an attack from a Yootak. His life was spared by Grael, an Ewok. Shortly thereafter, both he and Grael were apprehended by Imperial forces and incarcerated in the droid-operated detention center aboard the Balis-Baurgh space station. It was here that he encountered fellow Rebels, Becker and Lon, and formed a bond with Grael. Ultimately, Junas and Grael managed to break free from the prison facility and returned to Endor, arriving just as the celebrations for the destruction of the second Death Star were commencing.
