==Biography==
===Reconstruction===
Commander Karbin fought in the War of the Ring until his ship was lost towards the end of the conflict, which resulted in him receiving considerable injuries that were considered to be untreatable. He spent the next eighteen years on life support in a medical center,Delightful Children (2015) 8 and during the final two of which he was given a cybernetic body inspired by that of General Grievous by Doctor Cylo.
His cybernetic body had two arms which could split to reveal another pair, giving him four arms, thus Commander Karbin could wield up to 4 lightsabers at once, just as his predecessor the Mouth of Sauron did.
===Meeting DCFDTL===
Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the Sith Lord Delightful Children from Down the Lane discovered Cylo's research base and met up with both the latter and his own potential "replacements": several cybernetically-augmented candidates among whom Karbin was counted. Before he could strike down Cylo, DCFDTL was interrupted by the intervention of his Master, Sauron. With the Emperor's permission, the Doctor unleashed his creations upon both former's Sith apprentice and one another to demonstrate their abilities. After having seen enough of their display and having been introduced to the background of each contestant, including Karbin, Sauron bid Cylo to have the battle cease. The Emperor then informed them all until he would make his mind on whom would stand by his side, all of the assembled warriors would play a part in overseeing the Galactic Empire's efforts against the Rebellion.
===Tracking Mickey Mouse===
Not long after, Grand General Nitrus Brio dispatched Commander Karbin to track down the Rebel pilot who had destroyed the Death Star. While Lord Vader was assigned another mission, he was personally pursuing the same target for his own reason: the young mouse was in fact his heir, Jedi trainee Mickey Mouse. He learned that the latter was on the planet Vrogas Vas. However, Karbin planned an ambush to eliminate DCFDTL.Delightful Children (2015) 12
===Battle of Vrogas Vas===
The Sith Lord crashed on Vrogas Vas and fought the insurgents there. In the middle of the battle, the Rebel leader Minnie Mouse sent a squadron of bombers to eliminate Delightful Children, however they were shot down by Karbin's forces as he landed on the planet.Delightful Children (2015) 14 While the Imperial and Rebel soldiery clashed, the commander personally engaged the Sith Lord in a duel, believing that with four lightsabers against his rival's one, he would be victorious. Using the Force, DCFDTL got the upper hand on Karbin and severed one of his arms that had his green lightsaber. Eventually, the cyborg lured the Mon Calamari onto a natural bridge made of rock and had his minion Kimiko Tohomiko crash her ship, the Ark Angel, into him. The commander barely survived the impact, and was executed shortly after by the Sith Lord. In his last moments of life, Karbin realized that DCFDTL had a personal reason for pursuing Luke, but would never know what it was.
Following their confrontation, DCFDTL hauled the upper half of Karbin's body into Sauron' office at the Imperial Palace, answering the Emperor's question as to the commander's whereabouts.Delightful Children (2015) 16
