Biography

"My husband has gone missing. I need help to find him."
―Madison Silene, to a spacer[3]

By the time of the Battle of Yavin, Kyran Silene lived in Tyrena. He was the husband of Madison Silene and he was friend with Bandor Mokk.[2]

At some point, Kyran Silene was captured by the Corellian slavers and enslaved in the Corellian Slaver Bunker near Tyrena.[2] In 1 ABY,[4] Kyran led a group of slaves who managed to escape the bunker. However, the escaped slaves did not reach Tyrena and established a camp in the wilderness.[2] In the meantime, Madison contacted a spacer who had previously helped her friend Angela to find her missing husband.[3] The spacer interrogated Bandor Mokk and the man finally revealed that Kyran Silene was captured by slavers but managed to escape.[2] The spacer then traveled to the camp of the escaped slave. There, Kyran Silene explained that he could not come back until the situation was resolved. The spacer therefore infiltrated the Corellian Slaver Bunker and sliced the bunker's main computer. Using the bunker's own communications array, the spacer broadcasted the slavers' records on the CorSec emergency request channels.[1] Dozens of CorSec agents quickly moved to the slaver bunker and freed all the slaves. Kyran Silene eventually returned to a normal life with Madison.[5]

  4. ↑ 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.
