- "My handle's Jimm, but I call myself the Starkiller Kid! And you can bet I'm gonna live up to that handle--if I can ever get off this crummy planet."
- ―Jimm Doshun[src]
Jimm "The Starkiller Kid" Doshun was a resident of Onacra on Aduba-3 who desperately wanted to make something of himself and get away from his home world.

[edit] Biography
Jimm's parents were killed by high-hounds when he was three years old, and he was raised instead by the tractor droid FE-9Q.
He always felt that the villagers of Onacra should have fought back against the Cloud-Riders, and felt much anger because they never did.
When Han Solo was recruiting spacers to help combat the evil Serji-X Arrogantus, Jimm volunteered, hoping the opportunity would help him get away from Aduba-3. Solo was not keen on letting Jimm come along at first, but he was reminded of another cocky young friend of his, Luke Skywalker, and finally relented.
After helping defeat both Arrogantus and the monstrous Behemoth from the World Below, Jimm won the affection of the beautiful Merri Shen, who had never noticed him before. He decided to stay on Aduba-3 with her. They later married, had a daughter named Hanna, and were expecting a second child.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Jimm Doshun was created by Roy Thomas and Howard Chaykin.
The nickname "Starkiller Kid" is a reference to an early draft of A New Hope in which Luke's last name is Starkiller.
