Neal Suntry was a male Human from the planet Dantooine. Born to farmers in 30 BBY, Neal was thrust into the Galactic Civil War when Imperial forces arrived at Dantooine in 0 BBY. While on a hunting trip, his friend, Morris Zenete, betrayed the small farming community Gidra for harboring Rebel spies. Imperial stormtroopers razed the city and searched the nearby woods where Neal and others were hunting.
