"Here's where you can find the Cobral hideout. Go out there and give them everything you've got!"
―A commoner, to a spacer[2]

The Cobral Hideout was a fortified bunker located a short distance south of the city Restuss on Naboo's swamp moon of Rori during the time of the Galactic Civil War.

History

"A small-time gang of thieves, the Cobral. Their hideout can be found on Rori. Unfortunately, I have little information to give you about them. Search their hideout and find any data connected to the exchange of Jabba's assassin into Imperial hands."
Yondalla, to a spacer[3]

By the time of the Battle of Yavin, the base was the headquarters of the Neo-Cobral space pirates,[1] a gang of smugglers and black market dealers who once controlled the planet Frego.[4] The Neo-Cobrals had forged Imperial documents to get a hold of this fortress.[2]

In 1 ABY,[5] a commoner in Narmle intended to recruit adventurers to assault the Cobral Hideout and eliminate the Cobral Overlord who was seeking the domination of the moon.[2]

The same year, Jabba the Hutt dispatched an assassin to eliminate the scientist leading the Kahmurra Biogenetic Research Station on Talus but the assassin failed in his mission and was captured. Jabba's lieutenant Yondalla later recruited a spacer to recover a CorSec prisoner transfer document in the Kahmurra Biogenetic Research Station.[3]

Behind the scenes

The Cobral Hideout was a location in the 2003 massively multiplayer online roleplaying game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided,[1] prior to the game's closure on December 15, 2011.[6]

  5. 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.
