Who are these people?

They don't seem to have any actual backstory beyond the placard that lists their name, job, where they are from and the reason they joined. Googling on the internet yields no information. They are a mystery, an enigma. What's their story?

Considering how detailed many of the NPC's are in the game, even ones that you spend only a small amount of time with in a quest, it's surprising that squadron recruits haven't been fleshed out. They don't even have dialogue.

Has anyone spent the time giving their squadron recruits personalities and stories? Do you have a favorite?

(Don't forget to level up your squadron so you can get the new minion/mount boxes from the Grand Company.)
