Spectres

The Spectres are a collective name given to refer to the crew members of the VCX-100 light Freighter known as the Ghost

First Version
The Spectres were first formed sometime prior to 1972 as a Rebel cell by Hera Syndulla who was joined by her droid C1-10P which was known to the crew as "Chopper". She eventually recruited the Order 66 Survivor Kanan Jarrus, Lasat Honor Guard Garazeb Orrelios, and Mandalorian weapons expert Sabine Wren to the crew. In 1972, while on Lothal the crew ran across local orphan Ezra Bridger who joined them after it was discovered that Bridger was able to use The Force. The crew would later become part of a larger Rebel cell that would lead up to the formation of the Rebel Alliance. During this time, the crew would face Imperial foes such as Grand Moff Tarkin, Darth Vader, Grand Admiral Thrawn, and an Imperial Security Bureau agent named Kallus who would later defect to the Rebellion after being stranded on a moon with Orrelios. The crew would also recruit others to the Rebel cause including the former Clone Captain Rex, an Imperial inventory droid AP-5, and future New Republic General Wedge Antilles. The crew would later lose Jarrus in an explosion at the Lothal Fuel Depot caused by Imperial forces under the command of the planet's governor Pryce and Bridger would disappear for a few decades after the purrgil jumped into hyperspace carrying Thrawn's flagship the Imperial Star Destroyer Chimaera with Bridger, Thrawn, and Gilad Pellaeon aboard. The remaining crew would go their separate ways with Syndulla eventually giving birth to her and Jarrus' son Jacen Syndulla.

Reformation
In 2018, Bridger surfaced in New York City and was given possession of the Ghost and Chopper by Tevin Felth as the ship and droid were considered abandoned property following Jacen Syndulla's murder at the hands of a xenophobic bigot who was later convicted and sentenced to life in prison. When word was received that the First Order had planned to deploy a fleet to Lothal, Bridger (who was working undercover as a New York City High School teacher) made plans to travel to his homeworld in the Ghost. He and Chopper quickly formed a new group of Spectres containing his fellow undercover operative NYPD officer Jamal Wilkins as well as Landon McKnight, Josh Myers, and Lucy Felth. The crew soon arrived at Lothal to find the First Order Fleet in orbit as well as Jedi Masters Corran Horn and Kyle Katarn who had been sent by the New Republic to investigate the rumor of a First Order fleet launching an invasion. In the battle that followed (later referred to as Operation Lothal Freedom), the crew would be aided by a fleet of Earth based warships and starfighters commanded by Remnant Admiral Firmus Piett and containing ships piloted by Tevin Felth, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Michael Myers as well as a pair of McKnight's cousins flying X-Wings along with a New Republic fleet commanded by Wedge Antilles. This combined effort led to the destruction of many First Order ships, the capture of Armitage Hux by members of the Israeli Defense Forces, and the redemption of Jacen Solo by his twin sister Jaina Solo. Following this, the Spectres would be sent on missions by Tevin that he felt sending warships to do was impractical or politically incorrect. The crew would later receive a new astromech droid called R9-D2 which was owned by Lucy after Chopper was confined to the city by the older Felth and suspended from the crew by Bridger for theft among other things. Chopper's suspension was later lifted after Felth had located AP-5 and discovered that Chopper was involved with an office bet on Ezra and Landon becoming a couple. This new crew would sometimes work with the original Spectres on missions when required such as when Jamal teamed up with Orrelios and Kallus to prevent T-7 Ion Disruptors from ending up in the hands of the First Order or a Hutt who had sworn revenge on the crew after Josh and Lucy had disrupted a slave trading operation on Nal Hutta. Over the next couple of months, the group was joined by Sabine Wren, Hera Syndulla, and Jacen Syndulla. Josh and Lucy's old friend Noah Rodgers later joined the group on various missions in an unofficial capacity including the Battle of Nar Shaddaa. During this time, Ezra and Sabine encountered problems with the mother of extremely gifted student Darius Carpenter after Sabine had taken over Ezra's teaching job while he recovered from injuries sustained when he was kidnapped by Grinta's agents and taken to the planet Onyx where he was tortured until being rescued. The Darius situation reached its peak a few months later when Ezra and Jamal visited Darius' home and found Darius near death.

As 2019 opened, the Spectres as a whole became involved with the Darius situation after local gang members attacked both the school and the home of a Bronx Assistant District Attorney who was prosecuting one of their members for an attack on Darius in school. After all the trials relating to his situation were over, Darius and Lucy began dating at Landon's suggestion followed by Ezra with the encouragement of Kanan's spirit inviting Darius into the group and beginning the process for Darius to transfer to the Remnant's Junior Academy for his Senior Year. A few months later, Darius was welcomed into the group. A few weeks later, while doing a trip with the Astro Megaship, the teen Spectres and Jacen Syndulla encountered First Order Captain Moden Canady who intended to use the crew as hostages in exchange for Armitage Hux. Darius managed to send out a signal on Frequency Zero which summoned a fleet from the Chiss Ascendancy under the command of Thrawn who eventually joined the group and revealed to Hera and Tevin Felth the whole story of what happened between him and Ezra all those years prior. The group later took part in the search for the missing shuttle carrying Noah's parents back to Earth from a conference. The year ended with the discovery that the First Order was beginning construction of its own version of the Death Star followed by Noah officially joining the group at Christmas along with him and Josh receiving their own droid named BB-8.

The year 2020 opened with the discovery that Darius was a descendant of Jadi Master Mace Windu and very much able to use The Force himself. This was followed by more encounters with the First Order first in the form of the teens' schoolmate Steven Abernathy who had a prior history with Darius followed by an engagement between the Ghost piloted by Sabine and a First Order fleet commanded by Admiral Frantis Griss during which Darius piloted the Phantom III with Lucy and R9 aboard to the mock annoyance of Tevin.

Future
In 2024, Ezra had been elected President of the Remnant while Hera and Chopper sacrificed themselves along with Remnant Grand Admiral Firmus Piett when the three rammed the Super Star Destroyer Naberrie into a First Order Dreadnought. In 2025 after the defeat of both the First Order and Darth Sidious, Lucy gave birth to her and Darius' son Caleb. In addition, Lucy had formed an X-Wing Starfighter Squadron consisting of her, Josh, Noah, Darius, Tori Rodgers, and Mitchell Piett in 2024 prior to the battle against the First Order..

In late 2030, members of the crew were recruited by then-Remnant Security Bureau Major Eric Schuyler for an operation on Ord Mantell that also included Admiral Eli Vanto and Hondo Ohnaka. Soon after, Schuyler joined Lucy in Philadelphia after Lucy, Landon, and Admiral Vanto determined that Schuyler didn't fit in at Remnant Security and recommended to Tevin Felth that he be reassigned. On Christmas 2030 and continuing into 2031, many members of the Spectres including Jacen Syndulla were either directly or unofficially considered to be members of the Felth Family by Tevin, Lucy, or Josh. Jacen was also tasked with giving piloting instruction to Lucy's brother Christopher Felth who joined him on some missions before Jacen decided that Chris could fly on his own in 2031.
