Temmin Wexley: "Hey, C. H, athlete. Could that be Cutar Har? The grav-ball champion?"
Norra Wexley: "I thought he was dead. Didn't he die in the Turclom Riots?"
Wedge Antilles: "Apparently not."
―Temmin Wexley, Norra Wexley, and Wedge Antilles[4]

The Turclom Riots had occurred by 34 ABY[1] in the vicinity of[2] the Mid Rim's Turclom system.[3] The former New Republic pilot Norra Wexley believed that the grav-ball champion Cutar Har died during the riots.[4] However, in 34 ABY,[1] the Resistance acquired a list of First Order prisoners, with the initials "C. H." and "athlete" making an appearance on the list, leading Resistance pilot Temmin Wexley to believe it could be Har. Norra noted her belief that he died in the Turclom Riots, and fellow Resistance member Wedge Antilles concluded that he had actually survived. Finn then told his Resistance comrades that they had to help Har and the others on the list. Afterward, a team of Resistance operatives went on a mission to free some of the individuals on the list.[4]

Behind the scenes

The Turclom Riots were mentioned in the 2019 novel Resistance Reborn, written by Rebecca Roanhorse.[4]

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Resistance Reborn establishes the Turclom Riots occurred prior to its events, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 34 ABY.

(In reply to: "Jason, is Gendrah-Narvin a city country, star, or planet?")" (backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas and a number of maps in the current Star Wars canon (see a list here), and his Atlas co-author Daniel Wallace, stated their intention to create the approximate locations for numerous events based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for Turclom Riots in relation to the Turclom system.
