| == Ovion Wars and Desertion ==

|
| |
|
| Following the end of the [[Ovion Wars]], he leaves the service of the Colonial Empire under mysterious circumstances, of which there are many rumors given he leaves the fleet following the [[Battle of Carillion]]. One such story told by Starbuck to Athena notes of his warning {{1880|Adama}} that {{1880|Baltar}} has his own designs of power, and that the Quorum itself is not to be trusted given the summary disappearance of two Warriors saved by Baltar following [[Carillion]]: {{1880|Boomer}} and {{1880|Jolly}} (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 2]]'').
| | After the disappearance of Apollo during the [[Cylonic]] suicide attack on [[Caprica (1880)|Caprica]], [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Tigh (1880)|Tigh]] informs [[Lady]] [[Athena (1880)|Athena]] about Starbuck's location there, believing that Starbuck would be the only person who could find Apollo. |
|
| |
|
| However, the ultimate reason for his departure is his love for {{1880|Athena}} and Adama's ultimatum: forget about Athena or leave (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 4]]'').
| | Starbuck, in the meantime, places himself as a target for the dueling Queens of Rising Star: [[Cassiopeia (1880)|Cassiopeia]] and [[Sheba (1880)|Sheba]]. This is due to his penchant for romancing and playing both sides against the middle. |
|
| |
|
| == Pirate Life ==
| | As a result of taking money for a job that he did not complete, he is able to make special modifications to his aethership ''[[Starchaser (1880)|Starchaser]]'' (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 1]]''). |
|
| |
|
| Following his departure from Colonial life, he becomes a trader of ill-repute around the border world of {{1880|Rising Star}}, alongside of whom is a co-pilot {{1880|Daggit}} by the name of {{1880|Muffit}}.

| | |
| As a result of taking money for a job that he did not complete, he is able to make special modifications to his aethership ''{{1880|Starchaser}}'' (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 1]]'').
| |
| | |
| == Search for Apollo ==
| |
| | |
| Following recruitment by Athena to search for Apollo, Starbuck finds himself fleeing Rising Star and his ship damaged, setting down on the remains of [[Carillion]] and the discovery that the {{1880|Ovions}} had survived. Much to his consternation, Athena offers herself to the Ovions in order to secure their assistance against Baltar and the Cylonics (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 3]]'').
| |
| | |
| Starbuck later saves the life of Apollo following Apollo and the prisoners' escape from [[Helia]], and reconciles with Apollo immediately following (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 3]]'').
| |
| | |
| == Redemption ==
| |
| | |
| Starbuck lends assistance on the assault upon {{1880|Gamoray}} by selling himself into bonded servitude to Cassiopeia and Sheba, thereby securing the pirates' assistance.
| |
| | |
| After Starbuck delivers Athena to the surface of Gamoray in the attempt to stop {{1880|Iblis}} from assuming control of the Cylonics, he tells a wounded Apollo the truth on why he left, and how it related to his true feelings about Athena.
| |
| | |
| Following the victory against the Cylonics, Starbuck convinces the Queens to release him from servitude and reveals his true feelings for Athena, which lead into their marriage and his re-instatement as Major in the Colonial Empire (''[[Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 4]]'').
