Oraltor (talk - history - links - logs - delete - protect)

Hi there. Been a while since I've made one of these. Anyway, Noash brought this up over on TFN --- it seems to be a character that doesn't actually exist. We both searched thoroughly through the pair of sources listed on the page (Star Wars Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook and Ultimate Alien Anthology), and both of them only mention the name "Oraltor" as an example Ithorian name. That's it --- just an example name. Not an actual character. Noash brought it up on the article's talk page, too.

Looking through the edit history of this article is a wild ride. It was created way back in 2005, when the site was new and still kind of a wild west. It managed to fly under the radar for a full two decades while boldly presenting the character as being one of the Ithorian senator's aides in Episode I, seemingly based off of... nothing... and also completely making up information about him being executed by Imperial Intelligence.

A couple years ago it was edited to claim he's a senator, not a senator's aide. But, yeah, this also seems to be made up.

tl;dr: Twenty years of fraud! Menkooro (talk) 14:52, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Per what Lew said in the talk page, it's worth turning into a redirect to Ithorian/Legends instead since the name was still used in an official capacity. Bonzane10 Bonzane10-Sig 15:03, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
    • Yeah, if a voting option is added for redirecting to Ithorian, I'll gladly support that. Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 15:06, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
    • A good call. I didn't see the talk page until after I made the TC. I've added it as an option. Menkooro (talk) 15:09, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
      • I'm probably not eligible to vote but I favour this redirect. - Noash Retrac (talk) 00:31, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
        • Thank you for finding this regardless! Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 14:14, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
