Biography

"I left my bag and strongbox in the cave, though. Will you go get them for me? I can't go any further inside."
―Pech Seki, to a spacer[1]

Sometime following the Battle of Yavin, Seki lived in the Meatlump Cave near the city of Tyrena and participated in the gang's activities against the use of technology on the planet. But Seki wanted to quit being a Meatlump.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] he was ready to leave the cave and the Meatlumps behind, but he had left his bag and his strongbox behind in the cave.[1] Luckily, he met an adventurer that worked for the Corellian Security Force as an independent agent. The adventurer investigated the attack on the starship captain Osto Grissom and planned to disrupt the Meatlumps' vandalisms.[3] The agent agreed to help Seki and a short time later, he got his belongings back and could finally leave the life as a Meatlump behind.[1]

Behind the scenes

Pech Seki was a non-player character (NPC) in Sony Online Entertainment's MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[4] Pech Seki was added to the game with the update named "Chapter 1: The Corellian Captives," published on June 8, 2006.[5] He could be found right inside the Meatlump Cave near Tyrena on Corellia. During the quest "CorSec Case Files: Assault and Battery" — which was a part of the Legacy quest, the longest quest line of the game — the player entered the cave to kill several Meatlumps and destroy their supplies. Seki offered a small side quest that could be completed by finding his bag and strongbox inside of the cave. The reward for this mission was app. 15,000 credits.[1]

  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.
