Biography

"They killed one of Jabba's couriers and stole some valuable Old Republic coins. Jabba wants them back."
―Niko Brehe, to a spacer[1]

Brehe worked for Jabba the Hutt in Mos Eisley, along with Vourk ver'Zremp[2] and Dunir Signos, under the orders of Bib Fortuna.[1] In 1 ABY,[3] one of Jabba's couriers was attacked by a swoop gang and they stole some valuable Old Republic coins. Jabba wanted them back, so Brehe hired a spacer to attack the swoop gang and recover the coins. Brehe paid the spacer for this and then sent the spacer to speak to Dunir Signos about making a delivery for Bib Fortuna.[1]

  3. ↑ 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.
