"Some local Ragtags have been harassing me and seem suspicious. I need them to be removed without drawing attention to me."
―Lilith Laughlin, to a spacer[2]

Ventil Tamplin was a male Nikto Ragtag cudgel who lived on Corellia during the time of the Galactic Civil War.

Biography

After the Battle of Yavin, Ventil Tamplin and Lilea Norith were leading a group of Ragtag cudgels in the city of Doaba Guerfel.[2] In 1 ABY,[1] they harassed the small-time thug Lilith Laughlin because they suspected her to be an informant for the Corellian Security Force. In fact, they were right and Laughlin was actually working for the CorSec. During the CorSec investigation against the criminal organization known as the Chirq Council, Captain Vitala Baize needed information from Lilith Laughlin. She thus dispatched an agent to deal with her Ragtag problem. The CorSec agent fought the Ragtag cudgels who bothered the informant and killed some of them, including Ventil Tamplin.[2]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 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.
