Nathaniel Durane was born on Alderaan to a small family. As he grew up he was always fascinated with the stars, and hoped to one day fly amongst them. That dream came true on his eighteenth birthday when his father, now too old to be a freighter pilot anymore, passed his ship, the YT-2000 Luscient Assayer, onto his son. With his family comfortable and secure financially, Nathan was able to set off on his own adventures, traveling as a freelance pilot and ship's captain for transport services.

On Year 10, Day 224, while stopped on Naboo, Nathan was struck by a passing speeder and suffered serious injuries. By the time he was hospitalized he was in critical condition, and at one point the medical staff almost lost him when he suffered a cardiac arrest and ceased upper brain activity. He was brought back from the brink, however, and a couple days later he stabilized.

He was released from the medical center on Year 10, Day 245, after having spent three weeks out of commission, and set forth for his home immediately to ensure his family that he was alright. He arrived home a week later, just in time to celebrate his twentieth birthday before heading out to explore once again.

Krayt Station

After leaving Alderaan Nathaniel set off for the furthest he could go and didn't look back, exhilarated at the thought of what was lying in wait for him. He eventually made his way to a trading station in the Ruuria system called Krayt Station, where he met a young woman by the name of Relena Vercet. He and Relena seemed to get along quite well, and he eventually found himself working alongside her to deliver goods around the galaxy for people. It was a small business by the name of Durane Shipping and Transportation, but it was profitable and Nathaniel soon saw himself holding more money than he ever thought he would.

With the growth of his small business, as well as the amount of credits he had stockpiled in the bank, Nathaniel soon started looking to bigger goals. The station he frequented was starting to fall into disarray as the owner grew disenfranchised with its operation, and Nathaniel saw this as a perfect opportunity knocking on his door. He went into talks with the owner of the station, outlying his long-term plans of acquiring it with the capital he was raising through his business, and the owner seemed to be impressed with the amount of work Nathaniel was putting into this.

Over the course of a year Nathaniel continued to run his business and gather the money needed to complete the transaction, while the station owner held up his end of the deal by stopping the station from falling into a further state of disrepair. Finally on Year 11, Day 236, Nathaniel returned to Krayt Station with all the required paperwork and finances. The station was transferred over in ownership to him and he set about hiring workers to bring the facility back up to a high standard. The refurnishing was completed on Year 11, Day 261, just over a week after his 21st birthday.
