Biography

" But he was visibly sweating, which is very odd. He's scared and in my experience, that's bad. Extremely bad."
―Ja'inn, to a spacer[1]

Following the Battle of Yavin, Moril operated on Corellia and often worked for the Rogue CorSec.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] he was hired to smuggle animal feed, chemicals and tranquilizer materials to an illegal lab,[1] specialized in bio-engineering creatures through dangerous genetic experiments.[3] Moril was terrified by what he saw in the lab and later refused to discuss with anybody about that job. One of his contacts, Ja'inn, once tried to ask him about that and Moril was not able to hide his terror, displaying a very strange behavior. Ja'inn was worried and therefore reported this discussion to Lieutenant Joth of the Corellian Security Force. Joth thus sent a spacer to interrogate Moril. The Bothan agreed to give the details of his smuggling run, including the drop location for the shipment.[1] This would led to the discovery of the illegal lab by the CorSec.[4]

  2. ↑ 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.
