Message Boards - Boba Fett Fan Club → Serious Geeking → Fett's Past
Boba's past is really fuzzy, first off was his name really Jaster Meeral, i thought he was the one that helped Jango to become a Mandalorian. Also was Fett a stormtrooper in the Imperial army. There are many things in his past (and possibly future) that need cleared up.
Boba was never Jaster. Some people think he's Jaster, and Boba doesn't discourage that, so as to keep his past a mystery. Some sources say Boba sometimes wears Jaster's armor, so that might help with the rumors. In reality, Jaster is kinda-sorta Boba's grandpa. (If you look at Jaster as Jango's adopted dad)
And, no, Boba was never a stormtrooper.
According to cannon, Boba is the clone son of Jango. After his father's death he became a bounty hunter.
Of course, that is what is cannon. I am sure many Fett fans hate it. If Boba was Jaster though, he would be very, very old in Episode VI. He would be at least 70, but more likely 80.
Yea, I guess, I guess his past is just not suppose to be fully known!
Oops, I just made a reply in another topic that would have fitted better here.... But what I said was that some people are saying that Boba WAS Jaster at some point (probably during his teenage years) but Jaster was also his own separate person. Basically, Mandalorian Jaster and exiled-JP Jaster are two separate people, the latter being teenage Boba in disguise. What I wish is that someone with authority (like a character manual or something) would come right out and say which is correct.
I don't like that theory. Why would Boba pretend to be Jaster in his teens? Why would he go back to Concord Dawn to pretend it? Besides, I read somewhere that Mando-Jaster was exiled, I think it was Open Seasons but I'm not sure.
I agree, it wouldn't make much sense...
I don't beleive in Jango. I don't think Fett was a Mandalorian. And I certainly don't beleive he had anything to do with the Clone Wars. Yeah, it's oldschool of me, but I just HATE how Lucas treated Boba's past, and didn't read page one of any book in his own expanded universe, as stated before in another thread. It's kind of rediculous when books written before the prequels on the characters and the technology of Star Wars (the essential guides) have to be edited and re-released, as if Lucas' word is the word of God. I hate it.
I like how Jango asked for a clone of himself, he knew he wouldn't live for ever (especially in bounty hunting!) so he wanted someone who could carry on his legecy. Plus, Jango might have hoped Boba would maybe someday reconstruct the Madalorian warriors.
Did you play Bounty Hunter? I love how it sets up why Jango asks for Boba. 
I really need to play some more on that game. I'm still stuck at the part where the dudes shoot you with rocket launchers every time you open up the door (I think it's like Level 7 or 8 or something.)
I beat the game, it took me forever to kill Vossa though.
I wish I had gotten that game... I rented it once, and it rocked! But I never got to purchasing it... 
Chrys have you gone to Gave FAQs yet? And one of the things I do, I use the Bounty Scanner to check where people are (you know how it says No Bounty" when it hits someone, that's how I know where they are) and then I memorize it and blast the hell out of the entire area where I remember they are and then check to see if they're still there, and if they are I inch forward one tiny little step and then blast again. And if they shoot the moment you open the doors, get a grenade or something ready and the moment the doors begin to open toss one through and run.
Does this game work on computers, or only the X box, play station stuff?
Don't have x box or play station, but the game sounds cool enough to warrent an early birthday present, plus, I don't think the DH would complain if I brought one int he house. Still, if I can get if for the computer, more the better.
I don't think it's for computer, as far as I know it's only for Gamecube and PS2. I have it for Gamecube. But who knows, they might have released it for pc lter on. I checked Amazon but they have a really bad listing, they had the PS2 one but not the Gamecube one and no computer. lol
Well, my brother's several levels ahead of me so it's clearly possible to do. I've gotten all the way up to where you have to kill the droid in the hanger, but then I died and had to start over. I think my main problem is that, first of all, I'm used to adventure gaming, where there is basically no skill involved, and secondly, that I only play every few months. So I have to relearn everytime I play it. Kinda makes my reflexes slower than they should be.
It's a good game and you should buy it.
The only weapon that I ever use (not counting the wip-cord launcher, and scanner for collecting bounties) are the dual Westar blaster pistols. I usually (unless there is a bounty) just blast very thing that moves, and some that do not. I once got
"enimies killed:65" and "non-enimies killed:81."
lol! I try not to hit non-enemies, but sometimes you can't help it. I usually use the blaster pistols for everything too. Though I do occasionally like using the sniper rifle and the rockets.
I like how Jango asked for a clone of himself, he knew he wouldn't live for ever (especially in bounty hunting!) so he wanted someone who could carry on his legecy. Plus, Jango might have hoped Boba would maybe someday reconstruct the Madalorian warriors.
I like that idea. I think the whole "Boba is Jaster" is stupid. Boba is a clone of Jango.

Yeah, I agree. Perhaps in a future book Boba will clone himself as his father did... Hm... That could make an interesting fan fiction...
See i got the whole stormtrooper thing to early on, but for some reason i always called him a drop out shock trooper. So, is there actually a unit in the galatic empire with that name?
I assure you its been done. I am one of many Fett-children authors.
Cool, it would be nice to have Boba fett live on in a clone.
