This article is about the pet. You may be looking for a comet.

Comet was a pet kima belonging to an officer of the Meatlumps, a Corellia-based gang of technology-hating thugs and criminals, during the Galactic Civil War.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Comet was adopted by a spacer who killed its previous master while investigating the Meatlumps for Corellia Times reporters.[3]

Behind the scenes

Comet appeared in the 2003 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.[4] Comet was added to the game with the update dubbed "Chapter 10: The Search for the Meatlump King," released on June 19, 2008.[5]

Notes and references

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 SWG logo sm Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Collection: "Meatlump Container"
  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.
