Grot

OnALegendsArticle

"A vicious Zabrak admiral by the name of Grot. We have a small team of commandos available that will gas the building to drive the admiral out. I'm pretty sure that he will send his goons out first and not come out until he doesn't have a choice. So come prepared for a battle."
―Captain Voldez[2]

Grot was a male Zabrak admiral in the Imperial Army during the Galactic Civil War. He was one of the key commanders at the Battle of Restuss on Rori. After Restuss's destruction, Grot was killed along with the Dark troopers that were guarding him by Rebel commandos dispatched by Alliance Captain Voldez.[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.
