A sterilization pill was a type of pill used to make water safe to drink.[1] In 3 ABY,[2] the Rebel Alliance soldiers Brand and Hazram Namir used sterilization pills when filling their canteens at a creek on the jungle planet Coyerti. The process reminded the pair of their time on the terrestrial body Kor-Lahvan[1] in 0 BBY.[3]

Sterilization pills appeared in the 2015 novel Battlefront: Twilight Company, written by Alexander Freed.[1]

Notes and references

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 Battlefront: Twilight Company
  2. The section of Battlefront: Twilight Company where Brand and Hazram Namir use sterilization pills while on the planet Coyerti is set twenty-two years after the Clone Wars, which ended in 19 BBY, according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. The pills must have therefore appeared in 3 ABY.
  3. Battlefront: Twilight Company establishes that the 61st Mobile Infantry was deployed to Kor-Lahvan prior to the battle on Vir Aphshire, which takes place concurrent to the Battle of Yavin, and after Hazram Namir joined the company two months prior to Vir Aphshire. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas defines 0 BBY as the year preceding the Battle of Yavin; therefore, the 61st must have been deployed to Kor-Lahvan in 0 BBY.
