- "One of our top agents has been trapped by Lord Vader, and we must act immediately to save him! Our secret operative, code-named "the Mouse," had nearly completed his sabotage of an Imperial garrison when Darth Vader arrived in person to close the well-planned trap."
- ―Alliance High Command
The Mouse was the codename for a special agent of the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] the Mouse was trapped by Darth Vader during a mission to sabotage an Imperial garrison. After an intense battle with Imperial troops, an Alliance strike team successfully rescued the Rebel agent.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Mouse was mentioned in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[3]

Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Rebel Terminal Mission: "Aid a Top Alliance Agent"
- ↑ 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.
