"An'Kwee is a swoop racer in Mos Entha."
―Watto, to a spacer[1]

An'Kwee was a Twi'lek swooper who resided on Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, she was part of a group of swoop racers in Mos Entha, along with Draknus.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] she agreed to help a spacer to find the crash site of one of her fellow pilot who crashed his podracer on the Boonta Eve Classic circuit. The aim of the spacer was to retrieve a R2 unit motivator that was used in this podracer. Both Imperial Commander Barrezz and Rebel Captain Bastra dispatched agents to find the parts of that R2 unit.[1]

Behind the scenes

An'Kwee appeared as a non-player character in the video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[3] An'Kwee was added to the game as part of the "Legacy Quest" with the release of the "Publish 25," a.k.a. the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.[4]

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 SWG logo sm Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "Pod Retrieval" on Tatooine
  2. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
