"You don't have a problem dealing with Gungans, do you? Personally I can't understand a blasted thing they say, but the boss has a soft spot for them. One of them, named Mubarr, owes us a little money and hasn't been coming around to make his payments. Would you mind collecting for us?"
Bardo Klinj, to a spacer[1]

Mubarr was a male Gungan who lived on the planet Naboo during the time of the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, the Gungan was indebted to the the Hutt crime lord Borvo.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] a slicer working for Bardo Klinj, one of Borvo's lieutenant, sliced Mubarr's bank records and discovered that the Gungan had enough money to pay the Hutt. However, Mubarr still refused to reimburse what he owned to Borvo. Bardo Klinj thus tasked a spacer to meet Mubarr near the city of Keren and enforce the Gungan to give the codes of his bank account.[1]

Behind the scenes

Mubarr was intended to appear as a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[3] Mubarr should have appeared in the third quest given by Bardo Klinj on Naboo. However, the quest was bugged and Mubarr did not spawn in the game. It was therefore impossible to complete Bardo Klinj's questline.[1][4][5]

Notes and references

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 SWG logo sm Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Static Quest: "Bardo Klinj" on Naboo
  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.
