"Some local Ragtags keep messing with me and my work. That's partly why I agreed to a relocation to another planet, but I'd still like to stick it to those Ragtags."
―Strilath Farles, to a spacer[2]

Gramo Murah was a Human male member of the Ragtag gang who lived on Corellia during the time of the Galactic Civil War.

Biography

"Oh really. Ha, that's...hmm. Wait a second. Tell you what, if you help me with a little problem, I'll tell you what you want to know."
―Strilath Farles, to a spacer[2]

Gramo Murah was the leader of a small group of Ragtags based in a bunker in the Nomad Mountains. After the Battle of Yavin, Murah's goons entered into a violent conflict with another criminal organization, the Meatlumps,[2] fanatical anti-technology thugs.[3] The Ragtags eventually forced Strilath Farles' band of Meatlumps to relocate from Corellia to the planet Talus.[2]

In 1 ABY,[1] the Corellia Times reporter Vani Korr tasked a spacer to deal with Strilath Farles in exchange for information about the Meatlumps. The Meatlump lieutenant wanted his revenge on the Ragtags and the adventurer accepted to rid him of Gramo Murah and his gang. The spacer attacked the Ragtag bunker in the mountains and finally killed Gramo Murah and some of the Ragtag goons. The spacer also destroyed their stash of stolen goods. In the end, the death of Gramo Murah was meaningless since Strilath Farles eventually refused to share any information.[2]

Behind the scenes

Gramo Murah appeared as a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[2] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[4] Gramo Murah was added to the game with the update dubbed "Chapter 10: The Search for the Meatlump King," released on June 19, 2008.[5]

This non-player character (NPC) was known in the game as Gramo Murah or Mramo Gurah, depending of the Combat Level (CL) of the player. If the player performed the quest "The Meatlumps Hideout, Part 4" during the leveling of their character (at CL 65), the NPC would be named Gramo Murah. If the player performed the quest after the end of the game (at CL 90), the NPC would be named Mramo Gurah. Multiple story elements indicated that the quest was intended to be achieved at CL 65.[2]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 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.
