Jacen Syndulla
Jacen Syndulla was born in 1 BBY.
Jacen Syndulla is the son Kanan Jarrus never met. The Jedi died saving Hera Syndulla and the Spectres shortly before Lothal was liberated, and Jacen was born later that same year. He grew up during the last years of the Galactic Civil War. By the fall of the Empire he was already part of the Ghost's crew, with the callsign Spectre 7 and the ornery astromech Chopper as his constant companion and partner in mischief. He was a natural pilot like his mother and Force-sensitive like his father, and he openly wanted to become a Jedi, just as his "Aunt Sabine" was doing under Ahsoka Tano. In the New Republic era he flew with his mother to Seatos to help Sabine and Ahsoka, and pulled the Ghost's hyperdrive lever himself on the way. There his connection to the Force let him sense Ahsoka, adrift in the World Between Worlds and dueling the memory of her old master. Jacen led the rescuers to her, then watched in wonder as she and Huyang left with a pod of purrgil.
