A straggler was a Silvo's pirates member active in the New Republic Era.[2] Around 9 ABY,[3] he[1] took part in the Invasion of At Attin, which was aimed at subjugating the planet's population and profiting from their Old Republic credit production. Although Captain Silvo had taken control of the isolated world, the younglings[2] from the Skeleton Crew[4] together with their parents managed to contact the astronomer Kh'ymm, who alarmed the New Republic. With the arrival of a New Republic squadron and the subsequent disablement of their frigate, the pirates made a retreat,[2] hastily[1] boarding their pirate dropships to run away. When Kona and an Ishi Tib hopped on one such dropship, the straggler started to chase it, only to be left behind when he failed to catch up.[2]
Behind the scenes
The pirate straggler made his debut in "The Real Good Guys," the finale episode of the live-action television series Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, which was released on January 14, 2025.[5]

- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian" of The Mandalorian Season One to 9 ABY. In addition,
"A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 also dates "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Timelines. "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" takes place after the conflict on Mandalore, which is the main event depicted in "Chapter 23: The Spies" and "Chapter 24: The Return," the final two episodes of The Mandalorian Season Three. Therefore, Seasons One through Three of Star Wars: The Mandalorian must all be set in 9 ABY as well.
SWCA 2022: 20 Highlights from Lucasfilm's Studio Showcase on StarWars.com (backup link) states that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew takes place in the same timeframe as Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Star Wars: Ahsoka—the latter of which can also be dated to 9 ABY following the reasoning here. As such, Skeleton Crew must take place around 9 ABY as well.
