In YE 34, Stan left its 'home ship' to find its own source of income and hasn't seen its family since. It would spend several years bouncing between pirate and scavenger crews with the occasional stretch of time spent on stations or planets before eventually having to move on when the local populace had had enough of the smell and/or Stan's sticky fingers. It arrived on
Sood Zadra in early YE 44, where it was promptly abandoned when its ship departed vastly ahead of schedule while Stan was conveniently scouring a scrapyard for parts. That Stan was suffering a particularly vicious case of
graxlat flab stank at the time, having been hosed down by the crew a week earlier, was not a coincidence.
