Talon Karrde Explained: Mara Jade's Boss, The Smuggler King Who Saved The New Republic
The iconic Star Wars Legends, or Expanded Universe, character Talon Karrde was the leader of the Smuggler's Alliance and a future ally of the New Republic. Karrde definitively shaped the future of the Star Wars galaxy after his first appearance. He was created by Timothy Zahn for his original Expanded Universe novel, Heir to the Empire, alongside the likes of Mara Jade and Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Well known for his smuggling antics, Karrde is a much more idealized smuggler, who was first envisioned by Zahn as what Han Solo could have been if he never joined the Rebel Alliance. He's an uncommitted smuggler who still does have a good heart, and a charm that allows him to build a community. Much like Solo, Karrde is a naturally good person it just takes him longer to come around.
