Biography
- "Well, I must say that I am very impressed. You not only foiled the plot to discredit the Diktat, but defeated the Rogue CorSec commanders who were apparently behind the whole thing!"
- ―Lieutenant Jasper, to a spacer
Hiram Bish was once a member of the Corellian Security Force. However, by the time following the Battle of Yavin, he was part of the group of CorSec troopers and agents who left CorSec in pursuit of a more criminal lifestyle. Along with Mtara Vinram, Hiram Bish became one of the commanders of the Rogue CorSec.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] Bish and Vinram elaborated a plot to discredit the Diktat, Daclif Gallamby, and his government.[1] As part of the plot, they created evidences that the Diktat himself was smuggling illegal spice in the Coronet Capitol. The plot was finally foiled by a spacer recruited by CorSec Lieutenant Mack Jasper.[3] The spacer infiltrated the Rogue CorSec Base to find proof of the Diktat's innocence. Hiram Bish and Mtara Vinram were killed during the assault.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Quest: "Go to the Source of the Remote Signal" on Corellia
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 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.
