Banarj was raised to cherish life on his home planet of Calamari, and it is a lesson he's taken to heart. An avowed pacifist, Banarj has nevertheless sworn to aid any wounded being he encounters to the best of his ability. Such practice and dedication quickly led him to prominance as the head doctor on the floating city of Redcoral R'geen. It was in this occupation that he was the first Mon Cal to learn of the disaster that was quickly approaching.

Shortly after the Empire arrived at Calamari, Banarj was going about his daily business when he was called into surgury. The hospital had received a badly wounded human that was in desprate need of medical attention. Banarj went to assist the the human, but the man was past saving. Shortly before the man died, he pressed a datacard into Banarj's hand. The man passed on, and Banarj, his interest piqued, read the card.

Initally, he thought it was a hoax. The card warned that the Empire was planning an immenent attack on Calamari. Unsure of what to do, Banarj took the message to an old friend - Ra'Kaat. The pair had barely read over the message again when the attack began.

Banarj fled to the Alliance that day with Ra'Kaat, and has stayed by his comrade's side since then. He is one of the few people on board the Liberty to know how and what Ra'Kaat usually thinks. Banarj himself believes totally in the cause of the Rebellion, and although he won't lift a gun to aid them, he will continue to tirelessly aid their bodies, minds, and spirits in whatever way he can in their fight for freedom.

Banarj was moved from the Liberty before the Battle of Endor and redeployed to the Redemption, the fleet's medical frigate. Originally against the idea, he was overruled by Alliance leadership as the plan of battle called for all casualties to be delivered to the medical frigate during and after the battle, so all experienced medical personnel were required there. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as he'd found out after the battle that his closest friends had perished when the Liberty became the first casualty of the newly operational second Death Star.

When all of the medical work was done and the more serious cases moved elsewhere, a chance encounter with the critically wounded Knight of Corsair Squadron made him curious as to where the remainder of Renegade Wing would be posted. Using all of his behind the scenes pull to figure out this information, he managed to get himself assigned to the newly minted CRS Vigilant before the Renegade Pilots were even aboard, and was quick to welcome them all as soon as they came aboard. It was nice to have a little piece of his old home with him in this new place.
