Biography
- "I was just saying to my new friends here how boring this place had become since we launched the last of the excess crew into space. And then you arrive to brighten my day."
- ―Krix Swiftshadow
Sometime following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, a Human male by the name of Krix Swiftshadow was present on the Blackguard, an Imperial-class Star Destroyer that was captured by the rogue Imperial Captain—and self-proclaimed Grand Admiral—Andal Sait. Sait had the intention of selling the vessel to the criminal organization Black Sun, of which Swiftshadow himself was a member. However, before these plans could come to fruition, a team of spacers boarded the Star Destroyer, and killed Swiftshadow after an intense battle against him and nine Stormtrooper Grenadiers loyal to Andal Sait.

Notes and references
- ↑ 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.
