Star-Lord

"I look around, do you know what I see? Losers! But life's giving us a chance."

- Peter Quill

Peter Jason Quill, also known as Star-Lord, is a human who was stranded in outer space as a child, building up a reputation as a notorious intergalactic outlaw. He became the leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Early Life
Peter Quill was born in the 1980s as the son of Meredith Quill and an unknown father. Having grown up in Missouri, Quill lost his mother at age eight. While mourning her death, Quill was suddenly abducted from Earth and, through unknown circumstances, ended up in deep space. He was trained by a group of thieves and smugglers called the Ravagers, who taught him how to be the perfect thief.

The Guardians of the Galaxy
After living in space for an undetermined amount of time, Quill built up a reputation as the self-proclaimed legendary outlaw "Star-Lord" and was an associate of the pirate Yondu. While on the planet Morag, Quill obtained the Orb, but was immediately pursued by Korath the Pursuer. After escaping with help from his helmet, Star-Lord went to Xandar in order to sell it. Offering it to a local merchant, Quill was surprised when the offer was turned down, as the Orb was actually being sought by members of the Kree race. Almost immediately afterward, Quill was ambushed by the assassin Gamora and the outlaw duo of Rocket Raccoon and Groot, who both desired the Orb as well.

After a lengthy chase, all four were eventually apprehended by the Nova Corps and taken to the Kyln for incarceration.
