Tellulon was a male Human spy who served the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.

Biography

After the Battle of Yavin, Tellulon worked under the orders of Colonel Verks and successfully infiltrated the Imperial armed forces. He was assigned to the Imperial Fortress on Yavin 4 where he served as a technician. During his time on Yavin 4, Tellulon worked with an Imperial assistant technician named Arlo.[1]

In 1 ABY,[2] during the Empire Day festivities, he met a group of Rebel spacers, sent to meet him from Coronet by a Rebel contact. Tellulon spoke with them about Arlo, who was having second thoughts about being part of the Empire. Tellulon suggested to the Rebels that they speak to Arlo. They did so and finally convinced the assistant technician to defect to the Alliance. Tellulon then instructed the Rebel spacers to seek out Colonel Verks at the Yavin Mining Outpost when their work was finished.[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.
