While they no longer try to kill anything that comes near them, they are nearly insensible." ―Lead Cloning Technician, Timira City Cloning Facility " We are still left with hundreds upon hundreds of abject failures. As a result of the clone's actions, the Alliance prevailed against the forces of the Galactic Empire, securing their first major victory in the Galactic Civil War and taking Vader himself as a prisoner of war. Ultimately, the renegade clone was able to save Eclipse and, in the process, defeated the Dark Lord of the Sith in a lightsaber duel. Returning to his homeworld, Starkiller fought his way into the facility where he was created, battling stormtroopers as well as other clones of Marek while the Alliance Fleet laid siege to Kamino. However, his determination to be with Eclipse was used by Darth Vader as a way to lure the clone back to Kamino, having captured the Alliance officer in a battle near the Itani Nebula.

After the death of Marek, Vader endeavored to create a more powerful and obedient version of his fallen disciple, using a cloning facility on the planet Kamino to carry out this agenda.
Subject 1138, also known as " Starkiller," was a clone of Galen Marek, a Force-sensitive Human male trained by the Sith Lord Darth Vader as his secret apprentice. I'm a clone, grown in a vat by Darth Vader to take the old Starkiller's place at his side." ―Subject 1138 " I'm not Starkiller! Not the original Starkiller, anyway.
