History: Han Solo was born on the planet Corellia, a world known for its skilled pilots and shipbuilders. Orphaned at a young age, Han grew up on the streets, eventually becoming a skilled pilot and smuggler. His early life was marked by hardship, including a brief stint in the Imperial Academy before he deserted to pursue a life of freedom in the galaxy's underworld.Han's life took a dramatic turn when he won the Millennium Falcon, a highly modified YT-1300 Corellian freighter, in a game of sabacc from Lando Calrissian. Alongside his Wookiee co-pilot and best friend, Chewbacca, Han became a notorious smuggler, taking on dangerous jobs to make ends meet.Han's reputation for getting into trouble led him to a fateful encounter with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker, who hired him to transport them to Alderaan. This mission drew Han into the heart of the Galactic Civil War, where he initially cared only about the reward. However, after aiding in the destruction of the Death Star and witnessing the selflessness of his new friends, Han's priorities began to shift.Over time, Han became a key leader in the Rebel Alliance, participating in major battles such as the Battle of Hoth and the Battle of Endor. His relationship with Princess Leia Organa deepened, eventually leading to marriage and the birth of their son, Ben Solo. Tragically, Ben fell to the dark side, becoming Kylo Ren, which drove a wedge between Han and Leia.In his later years, Han returned to his old smuggling ways, but he was ultimately drawn back into the fight against the First Order.

He played a crucial role in the Resistance's efforts, culminating in a final, tragic confrontation with his son.
