The Tusken King was the leader of a Sand People tribe, which resided on the planet Tatooine near the city of Mos Espa.

Biography

In 1 ABY a spacer had infiltrated the tribe and stolen several ancient relics of the Sand People culture. The Tusken Raiders became furious and launched a raid on a nearby city of Mos Espa seeking retribution. After a long and perilous battle the local citizens and spacers managed to drive the Tuskens away from the city. The Tusken King himself was killed in the battle. The Tusken King was also responsible for taking over the Tusken Bunker that had formerly been owned by the Empire.

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 SWG logo sm Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Heroic Instance: "Tusken Army"
  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.
