History

"You could help me track down my missing shipment. If you're able to find it, then not only will I be able to fulfill the order these two gentlemen placed, but I'll also be able to complete construction on my own starships."
―Ral Mundi, to a spacer[1]

Ral Mundi's Starship Emporium was headquartered in a skyscraper in the bustling capital city of Coronet on the planet Corellia. The Emporium was headed by Twi'lek businessman Ral Mundi, and staffed by a number of employees, including Abagga Creel[1] and Tomi Jinsin.[2]

In 1 ABY,[3] an important shipment of starship components ordered by Ral Mundi disappeared during its transports, putting the company in trouble. Mundi put all of his available funds into this shipment and two shipwrights, Tarth Jaxx and Io Tsomcren, were waiting for the shipment with impatience. Ral Mundi was afraid to not be able to pay back the shipwrights for the missing shipment, nor even be able to complete other projects. Ral Mundi's Starship Emporium was on the verge of ruin so Mundi requested the help of the Corellian Security Force. CorSec Lieutenant Mack Jasper sent a spacer who worked with Ral Mundi and his assistant Abagga Creel to find information concerning the missing shipment.[1] The spacer later discovered that the shipment was stolen by the Ragtags, with the help of Tomi Jinsin who was himself a Ragtag thug. The spacer retrieved the shipment in the Coronet Capitol, along with a crate of illegal spice. The retrieval of the missing shipment saved the company from bankrupt and Mundi was indeed very grateful.[2] Further investigation of the CorSec about the shipment robbery and the smuggled spice would led to the discovery of a plot of the Rogue CorSec to overthrow the Diktat Daclif Gallamby himself.[4]

  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.
