"The Black Nemesis?! Yes, I have briefly heard of such a 'ghost' a long time ago. Yes, indeed. Even in the information you retrieved off the Black Suns it was mentioned about a mysterious fighter in the Ghost Tide. It is time to act against this so-called Black Nemesis!"
―Kelen Wordkal[2]

The Black Nemesis was a male Human Black Sun pirate pilot who lived during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Yavin, the Black Nemesis attacked freighters in the Tatoo system with his Rihkxyrk assault fighter. The pirate was eventually killed by pilots of the Mos Eisley Police.[2]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ 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.
